Shen Baolan was kind and virtuous, treating her stepson as her own, while the original character was harsh and mean, either beating or scolding the stepson.

Chapter 471: Pei Ke's Gratitude

```

Having hung up the phone and seeing the brother and sister quietly standing to one side, Shen Mingzhu's face broke into a smile.

"Our great-uncle is safe now and will be back in a few days," she said.

Pei Ziheng nodded.

Guoguo joyfully clapped her little hands to express her delight.

Bending down to kiss her daughter's cheek, Shen Mingzhu turned, gently touched her son's head, and said, "You played a part in the successful rescue of your great-uncle too, and I thank you on his behalf."

Pei Ziheng shook his head. "Mom, no need to thank me. Our great-uncle is our family too."

"Exactly, we're a family, and we should love and care for each other."

After praising him, Shen Mingzhu curiously asked Pei Ziheng how he had managed to save a thousand yuan in pocket money.

Though Pei Ziheng had indeed received quite a lot in New Year's money over the years, he also spent no small amount on birthday gifts for her and toys and sweets for Guoguo.
