Chapter 406: It's Not a Trivial Matter

Just like when she and Zhuang Qingsui had escaped from Zhuang Ruman and Mrs. Song's house, she was also malnourished, and it took a while before her condition improved.

Looking at Miao Erdan, Zhuang Qingning was reminded of her own experiences, which inexplicably made her feel anxious.

Miao Erdan tilted his head, looking into the kitchen, and tugged at Zhuang Qingning's sleeve, whispering, "Sister, don't tell this to my mother."

"We barely paid off our debts with the wages my mother earned. I saw her start to smile. If she knew I was uncomfortable..."

Miao Erdan lowered his head without saying anything further.

Zhuang Qingning pursed her lips.

This long-term hardship has led the children to understand that they cannot add any burden to the family, especially by getting sick.

The children of the poor grow up early and understand things early as well.
