Chapter 301 – She just wanted to stock up enough resources so that she could happily welcome winter when it came (3)
Little Wang’s kindergarten had also started winter vacation. Without the housekeeper aunty, Ruan Xia was very busy. She had to watch Little Wang and prepare three meals a day. Most of the time, she would hire an hourly worker for cleaning. Occasionally, she would do the cleaning herself. Just like Song Tingshen, she was as busy as a dog every day. At night, after taking a shower and lying down on the bed, she would fall asleep before Little Wang.
Ruan Xia was still very grateful. Fortunately, there was a dishwasher at home, and she didn’t need to wash dishes. Otherwise, she didn’t know if she would be able to last. It was too hard being a full-time mom. It was way harder than when she used to go to work.
Little Wang was a sensible child. He was aware of his mom’s hard work. That’s why he would pour water for her and put away his toys. He did his best to lighten her workload by taking care of the small things. Basically, all children were more likely to feel bad for their moms. In this aspect, his dad couldn’t catch up no matter how he rushed.
Tonight, Song Tingshen got off work earlier than usual. While Ruan Xia was taking a shower, Little Wang ran over to Song Tingshen’s study and asked with a serious face, “Dad, can we talk?”
Song Tingshen looked up from the pile of documents and coaxed, “Dad is busy right now. Let’s wait until later. Okay?”
“No.” Little Wang shook his head. “It won’t take long. I want to talk to you now.”
This was the first time the kiddo was so serious. Song Tingshen could only nod. He waved over Little Wang. “Alright then. What did you want to talk to Dad about?”
Little Wang walked over to Song Tingshen, but he didn’t sit down on his lap. Instead, he halted to the side. With a very stern expression and serious attitude, he said, “Dad, I have an opinion on you. You come home late every night. Mom works so hard because of you. Mom has to go out to buy food and cook every day. She has to use the washer and hang clothes to dry. She’s so busy every day.”
Song Tingshen froze in surprise. “Is Mom working too hard?”
During this period, he went out early and came home late. He was so busy that he barely had time to drink water at work, so he hadn’t paid much attention to his family.
Without noticing, his son had complaints against him.
Little Wang nodded. “She works hard every day. Sometimes, she has to clean the house too. Dad, this isn’t okay. I want to help Mom, but I’m too young. I can’t do much. Dad, I hope you can come home early and help Mom out. She’s working too hard. I don’t want Mom to work too hard. Didn’t Dad say that Mom is the only girl at home? We have to take care of her and protect her. Right now, Dad and I have failed to do that.”
