The Stepmother’s Counterattack: Raising a Child in a Bygone Era

Hearing Zhao Dafa praise her, Shen Hongmei instinctively replied, "I’m already thirty. If I were still as impulsive as when I was young, then these years would have been lived in vain. Besides, I have a clear perspective as an outsider, while you are lost in the situation."

Zhao Dafa held her hand and sighed, "In the blink of an eye, we’ve both gotten old."

Shen Hongmei laughed, "Exactly, in a couple more years, Xiaoyun will be getting married."

Zhao Yun joined in the laughter, "Doesn’t that mean I should prepare to be upgraded to a grandfather?"

"You never know, it might not take two years. Xiaoyun has been quite constant with that Miss Ren these two years, who knows, they might impulsively make you a grandfather sooner."

Although Shen Hongmei joked, Zhao Dafa couldn’t bring himself to laugh, "That won’t do. The girl is still in school. I need to remind him, if he dares to mess around and harm her, I’ll break his legs."

Shen Hongmei’s smile faded, a slight bitterness in her heart.

If back then she had such a sensible and wise elder to guide her, she wouldn’t have made mistakes and wasted so many years.

But on second thought, if she hadn’t been with Ma Chao, she might have married another man early on and wouldn’t have the life she has now.

Everything in the world has its own arrangement.
