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 88 The Yang Family Comes Knocking, Stealing the Watch

Translator: 549690339

It wasn't until after the new year celebrations that Shen Mingzhu finally put Shen Chaobei's family of three on the bus back to Shenjiagou.

In the end, she specifically took a moment to warn Du Juan, "Whether your family of three will be eating chaff and vegetables or enjoying meat and spices depends on whether you can keep a tight hold on this craft. If you hold on tight, Daya will be able to wear new clothes, go to school, and eventually come to work and live in the city. But if you let it slip through your fingers, Daya will be destined to struggle in the countryside like you, growing up only to marry a rural man and remain rooted in an impoverished ravine like Shenjiagou for generations."

Qin Jinlian had been waiting eagerly and finally saw the return of the eldest son's family.

"How did it go? Did your sister agree to lend money? How much did she lend?"

The moment Shen Chaobei walked in the door, before he even had a drink of water, Qin Jinlian was on him with questions.
