Around 5 PM, when Ruth returned home, she felt slightly ashamed, "Son-in-law, you've worked hard. Let Mom give you a hand."
Luis in the kitchen was wearing shorts and had deliberately put on a vest, busily preparing dinner inside and out.
Ruth was dressed very beautifully today. A small, finely patterned floral dress accentuated her mature, full curves. Though she wasn't wearing makeup, that natural charm was her most captivating quality.
When people are poor, constantly calculating every penny for daily necessities makes them worldly and irritable. But now, free from those pressures and living a comfortable life, her temperament had instead softened considerably. Especially in front of Luis, she was completely a little woman, showing a trend towards becoming like Lily.
"Mom, it's fine, don't trouble yourself. I can handle it."
