Aunt Liu, stoking the fire under the stove, heard this and said gratefully, "You're always so thoughtful and considerate, Ma'am. My mother often says that even her own son couldn't treat her any better."
He held a spatula, flipping the pancakes in the pot as she laughed. "Oh, don't say that, you'll make me blush. She's an old woman, how much can she possibly eat? Besides, she always helps me look after my grandson! We used to be poor, so I couldn't be as generous as I wanted. Things are much better now."
Aunt Liu thanked her again, saying that not all employers were so kind, and that her family was truly blessed to have found the Zhang family!
Juhua saw the two women exchanging polite praises and didn't interrupt. She carried out a basket of pancakes and asked Pu Pao, "Where's your little brother? Is he asleep already?"
Pu Pao nodded. "My grandma took him home to sleep."
