Yu Tang, who was anxious to get away, never thought that Jian Yaoshan would actually lie to her and even be proud of his own cleverness.

But in this situation, she didn't dare to go back to her room, so as not to run into the bastard again. If this were to be brought up in the past, she, a fake, wouldn't be able to explain it in a few words.

After thinking it over, she quietly pushed open the door of her eldest son's room, ready to squeeze in with the sleeping Jian Yanzhi and make do with him.

It was only after she entered the room that she discovered that her eldest son, who was supposed to be taking a nap, was holding a doll that was so worn out that its original color and shape could not be seen. When he saw Yu Tang coming in, he opened his mouth in surprise.

"Mom, why are you here?" Jian Yanzhi, who was feeling extremely conflicted, hugged the doll tightly and didn't dare to look up at her.

Yu Tang walked up to him, ruffled his soft hair, and asked softly, "Why aren't you sleeping yet? Children won't grow tall if they don't sleep."

Jian Yanzhi pouted in grievance, pinched her fingers and muttered: "Mom is lying, you won't grow taller if you don't sleep for a day."

Yu Tang felt regretful for not being able to tease the baby, and said with a smile: "Seeing that you are unhappy, I am teasing you."

For such a young child, it is time to laugh, make noises and act like a spoiled child.

Hearing her hearty laughter, Jian Yanzhi dared to look up at her. Seeing that she looked normal, he leaned on her with confidence and asked nervously, "Mom, are you really okay?"

When his father took him to take a bath just now, he specifically told him not to tell his mother what happened before. However, he didn't want to lie to his mother and make her sad again.

Yu Tang didn't understand why her eldest son kept asking her if she was okay, and she couldn't figure out what was wrong with such a young child. But now was a good time for her to take action.

"Baby, Mommy is fine, but Mommy feels like you have something on your mind. If you're willing, can you talk to Mommy?"

"But my father didn't let me tell you." Jian Yanzhi sold Jian Yaoshan honestly without any hesitation.

Yu Tang silently took note of the bad man in his heart and said, "Just wait, it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."

"You can tell mom quietly and treat her as your best friend. I promise I won't tell anyone, including dad."

The child, whose balance was originally in her favor, was shaken. He didn't want to disappoint or upset his mother more than he wanted to break the promise he made to his father.

After struggling for a while, Jian Yanzhi raised his head and asked innocently, "Mom, does grandma not like you and only like aunt?"

His heartfelt doubts completely tore apart the last fig leaf between Yu Tang and Yang Hui.

Yu Tang didn't admit it, but she didn't deny it either. She just felt a little depressed. Was it so obvious that they were not on good terms? Even a kid like Jian Yanzhi could see it.

"Baby, why are you asking this?" She asked while pinching the big baby's lotus root-like arm.

Jian Yanzhi hugged her waist tightly and recalled with some pain: "Because every time my mother saw my grandmother, she was very unhappy. She would throw things, curse at people, and sometimes even had to take a lot of medicine."

The most terrifying thing is that his sick mother would lose control and spank him. Not the kind of spanking that hurts, but the kind that hurts him so much that his nose and face are swollen.

The little cub couldn't help but flinch as he thought about the dark moments in the past.

As if sensing his fear, Yu Tang reached out and hugged him, gently patting his back and coaxing him softly, "Don't be afraid, Yanzhi, mom is here."

Little did she know that her past self was the source of her fear in a nutshell.

"Mom, will you always love me like this?" Jian Yan, who had no sense of security, enjoyed the moment of motherly love that belonged to him alone, as if he had returned to the time when his younger brothers and sisters were not born and his mother was not sick.

My mother loved him so much at that time, but he was too young and didn't remember many things.

Yu Tang's eyes were slightly moist. She didn't know what she had done wrong, which caused Xiao Yanzhi to not believe in her love. Although she was not the biological mother of 24k pure gold, she also loved the three children sincerely.

"Mom will always love you." She reached out and picked up Jian Yanzhi, holding his cheek and answered seriously: "This is the first time for mom to be a mother to a baby. If there is anything I did not do well, please tell me, okay?"

Jian Yan's eyes were red, and he looked like he was about to cry. He sniffed and blamed himself: "Mom is very good, but Yan is not good. Yan is a bad boy and an incompetent brother."

Tears glistened in his eyes, and his look was full of helplessness and confusion.

Yu Tang tilted her head slightly to hold back her tears, and tried her best to put on a soothing smile.

She held the child's head and choked up a little as she said, "Who said that? Mom thinks Yanzhi is the most obedient, best, and cutest child in the world, and the most qualified brother."

Who knew her praise was the last straw that broke the camel's back. Jian Yanzhi couldn't hold back any more and tears started to fall.

He broke down and cried, "I am a bad boy and a bad brother. I hate my brothers and sisters. I even threw Yuzhi away and let mom take the blame for me. Mom, please beat me. Don't like me anymore. I am a big bad guy."

Yu Tang's brain exploded and turned into a mess.

In short, she knew every word he said, but she couldn't believe the words he put together. She felt that her brain was malfunctioning, or maybe there was something wrong with her hearing.

He said he hated his younger siblings, he said he threw Yuzhi away, he said he was a bad guy. How could that be possible? Her eldest son was so well-behaved and sensible.

"Host, calm down." Shanshan saw that she had been silent for a long time and looked distraught, so she quickly barked.

Yu Tang, who was forcibly called back to his senses by Shan Shan, looked at Jian Yanzhi who was crying in panic, not knowing what to do.

"Mom, will you never like me again?" Jian Yan slid down from her knees, lowered his head dejectedly, and said in self-loathing, "I, I will leave now and will never get in your way."

A bad boy doesn't deserve the love of his parents. He has done something wrong and can't think of any way to make amends, so he can only choose to punish himself.

"Don't leave." Yu Tang subconsciously held onto his little hand and refused to let go. She explained in a panic, "Mom, I don't dislike Yan Zhi. I just didn't expect the birth of a younger brother or sister to cause you so much trouble."

She held her eldest son's hand tightly, fearing that she would lose Jian Yanzhi if she was not careful.

"It's not mom's fault, it's my fault." Jian Yanzhi cried so hard that his body trembled, but he still tried to comfort her: "I'm too stingy and don't want to share mom's love with others."

Yu Tang felt that she had failed in her duty. She didn't know what to say to comfort the sad and self-blaming child. The two could only look at each other and cry.
