Chapter 853 Munchkin raised his head to glance at me, then at Grayson. He asked, "Grandpa, what day is it today?" Grayson looked at him with a tender gaze. "It's New Year's today. The first day of the new year." Munchkin nodded. "Does that mean that we must spend the day together as a family?" Grayson was stunned, then he looked atwith a slightly complicated gaze. "Yeah, we should spend this day together as a family." Munchkin raised his head to look at me, asking curiously, "Mommy, when are Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Tyler coming over?" I stroked his head. "Your grandparents have been very busy lately, and your aunt just had a baby, so they can't cover." "When can we visit the baby, then?" Munchkin was young and had many questions. It would be hard to stop him whenever he started asking.
I would get impatient whenever he asked too many questions, but Grayson was very patient and kept answering his various strange questions.
I got up and walked to the kitchen to see if they needed my help.

Seeingcoming in, Theo asked with a smile, "Do you know how to wrap the fillings?" I did.
I nodded and walked over to wash my hands. Then, I started making wraps with him. "My mother taughthow when I was young, but I only learned how to wrap the fillings, not how to make and roll the dough." Quinn turned around and asked curiously, "Didn't you grow up in the south? A lot of girls in the south don't know how to make wraps. The sgoes for the older generations. Not many of them know how. I remember when I was a kid, my mom didn't know how either." I smiled. "My mother isn't a native southerner. She would make her own wraps and make vegetable stew every New Year's Eve." Quinn chuckled. "She's probably a northerner, then." I smiled and lowered my gaze to wrap the fillings." She never toldher stories when she was young. M y memories of her are only of those when we lived together." Petra walked over and looked at me, saying, "Wanda, has it never crossed your mind that it was strange she neither had relatives nor friends in the countryside yet she knew Grant Corporation's mistress and even felt at ease handing you over to her? Have you never asked them how they knew each other?" I hesitated a little and shook my head slightly. "No." I never thought about these things seriously.
Mother had no friends or families in the countryside a t the time. She was a complete outsider.
Later, Cecilia learned from others that Mother had chere in her 30s and started living here after buying a house. No one knew where she cfrom or why she chose to settle in the countryside alone.
"What's her name?" Quinn asked curiously.
I pursed my lips. "Sandra Tyler." At the thought of this, I could not help but think of Tyler. Why did Tyler's father entrust him to Mother? Although it was a small and remote town, there were many well-to-do families too. Why must they choose Mother?
Petra sighed. "She left you a piece of superior quality nephrite white jade in that sandalwood box. Have you seen it yet?" I shook my head and looked subconsciously at Theo." I can't open the box." Theo was slightly stunned, then he said, "Open it at night." I nodded, feeling even more curious now.

Although it was a bright sunny day, it was still winter. It would still be cold even if they were having a barbecue outdoors. Since no one objected to it, I did not have the heart to spoil the fun either.
Theo and I went to the supermarket to buy a lot of things last night. We and had adequate ingredients and sauces, so there was no need to send anyone to get anything else. X
