Choices change with time

Song Yifei was kind of sad when An Xiulan and Lu Xuan were leaving but she knew it was for the best. Looking at them, she said, "Children, take care of each other. When you have time, don't forget to visit. I will ask the kitchen to pack your favourite food. You can take it back with you."

"Auntie, can you please ask the kitchen to add Lotus root and pork soup?" An Xiulan asked innocently while Lu Xuan gaped at her. 

Song Yifei laughed. From Mrs Lu to Aunt Song to Auntie, she had come a long way. She was happy that An Xiulan was not rude to her. What she didn't know was that An Xiulan had no reason to be rude to her! 

All she had for her was politeness initially and respect as this stepmother was a hundred times better than the one she had in her previous life. She had heard and seen all stepmothers to be of cruel type but Song Yifei broke all the stereotypes of a conventional stepmother.
