Mrs. Tao entered the kitchen and stared at the pot of porridge in a daze.
Of course, the Tao family wasn't as poor as the outside world thought. For so many years, the Tao couple never mentioned the family's business. They even kept it a secret from their child, thinking that they were born into an ordinary family.
All these years, Mr. And Mrs. Tao had intentionally distanced themselves from the wealth and glory of the past and only wanted to maintain the lives of the most ordinary people.
For one, she really didn't want to care about the deception and mockery in their social circle. Plus, she hoped that the children wouldn't be affected by external vanity and rely on their own hard work for everything.
Therefore, other than the most basic of expenses, Mr. and Mrs. tao never bought any luxury goods for their child. They supported their studies and hobbies but they would never allow them to waste anything and spend without restraint.
