The world begins with refining skills

Chapter 13 Rejection
When Mu Sheng arrived home with his luggage, Li Suhua, who had learned the news, was already waiting for him with an anxious look on her face.

"Bingkun, what happened to your sister and her family? We were supposed to come back as a family, so why did they only send the child back? Where are your sister and your brother-in-law?"

Mu Sheng carefully observed Li Suhua's condition. She looked good. Although she was anxious, she was not angry.

In the past few years, he has been taking the old lady to exercise, and her physical fitness has improved a lot. She should not get angry to the point of having a cerebral hemorrhage and becoming paralyzed.

He was able to do this thanks to the knowledge he gained from refining the Eight-Section Brocade. Now, Mu Sheng has reached the top level in terms of exercise and health preservation.

There is also Zheng Juan's mother, who had passed away in the original drama, but is still alive and well now, thanks to the health-preserving methods taught by Mu Sheng, and also because Zheng's mother has become more confident.

Those who have elderly people at home know that the mentality of older people is particularly important, and mentality is the primary factor that determines how long they can live.

In the original drama, Zheng's mother spent every day in sorrow and anxiety. It would be a miracle if she could live long.

"Mom, my sister is fine. There's no problem. It was that old guy named Feng who got into a fight and got caught. My sister went to take care of him." Mu Sheng answered Li Suhua's question while observing her expression.

"I'm glad your sister is okay, I'm glad she's okay." Li Suhua was relieved to hear that her daughter was okay. When she heard Mu Sheng calling Feng Huacheng an old man, she raised her hand and punched him again:
"What do you mean by old thing? That's your brother-in-law."

Mu Sheng chuckled and felt relieved when he saw that Li Suhua looked normal and didn't have any big reaction.

In the original novel, although Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng were the main factors for Li Suhua's fainting, the original owner's expression of as if something terrible had happened and the sky was falling was also partly responsible.

"Where are my sister's children?"

"In the inner room, Juan'er is playing with An'an."

"Okay, I'll go back later. My sister and the others probably won't have time to go back to Jichun."

Mu Sheng is unwilling to take over the little girl. Zhou Rong, this selfish girl, is not a good mother either. She feels comfortable and at ease when she sees the child being handed over to others.

I don’t know if he tasted the sweetness, but he never took the child back and left him to his younger brother and old mother. He is such a piece of shit.

As for Feng Yue, according to the original drama, she is exactly like her mother Zhou Rong when she grows up. She is equally selfish and also finds an old man.

Besides, the child is now three or four years old, and it is difficult to change his personality. Mu Sheng is not willing to waste time and energy to educate other people's children.

Anyone who raises a child knows how tiring it is. Just ensuring their safety and survival is tiring enough. If you want to raise them into successful people, even if you spend the next ten years or so of your time and money on them, there is still a guarantee that they will not succeed.

Let’s return this hot potato to Zhou Rong as soon as possible.

After a while, Zhou Rong wrote to say that Feng Huacheng was fine and they would come to pick Feng Yue up after he was released.

Mu Sheng knew it was time to send Feng Yue back. Everything was fine now, but Feng Huacheng came out and started causing trouble again. This time it was really a big deal.

I have to send Feng Yue back quickly, otherwise Zhou Rong will run away again.

During this period, editor Shao from the magazine also came to Mu Sheng to inquire about Feng Huacheng. This time, Mu Sheng did not have any poems to provide him.

The next day, in the Red Star Timber Factory, the factory director’s office.

"Director, something happened at home. I need to take a few days off. Please approve it for me."

"Bingkun." The factory director was not in a hurry. He picked up the water cup and took a sip. He looked at Mu Sheng and said, "Many people in the factory have reported to me that you are very lazy at work. You can't be like this."

"Who? Who said that? You asked him to come and confront me face to face. How can you slander someone out of thin air? Who is so wicked?" Mu Sheng looked furious, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

"Look at you, you're anxious again." Seeing this, the factory manager tried to comfort him with a few words.

It was just a casual knock. There are so many lazy people in the factory. Don't regard these people as model workers who love their work.

Everyone wants to work less and get more money. Otherwise, why can't we eat from the big pot? It's because there are too many people who don't work. As for cattle and horses, there are more in modern society, and they can bring their own dry food to motivate themselves.

After a while of hesitation, I finally got the approval slip.

After holding on a little longer, when the policy was completely relaxed in 79, Mu Sheng planned to quit his job and make some money in the sea trade. He didn't ask for much, just enough to enjoy the rest of his life.

It would be great if you could use your free time to enrich yourself and learn more skills. I don't want to go to this crappy class for even a single day.

After traveling by train, car, and rickshaw, and trekking through mountains and rivers, we finally arrived at the place where Zhou Rong was working in the countryside.

Mu Sheng looked around and saw green mountains and clear waters and beautiful scenery.

It is indeed a good place for tourism, but if you want to live here, forget it, as the living facilities are worse than those in Mu Sheng’s hometown.

Holding Feng Yue and following the guidance of a fellow villager, it took a while before we arrived at Feng's house.

In an ordinary country courtyard, Zhou Rong, wearing clothes full of patches, was working.

It’s really hard. Mu Sheng is now even more grateful that he did not choose to go to the countryside in order to obtain the energy for time travel.

In fact, in the original drama, Zhou Zhigang and Zhou Rong had reconciled at this time, and with the subsidy from Lao Zhou, Zhou Rong's life was much better. But now it's not the same, Lao Zhou's money has been spent by Mu Sheng.

"Zhou Rong, Zhou Rong," Mu Sheng shouted at Zhou Rong several times.

"Mother."

Zhou Rong was a little surprised when she suddenly heard the voices of her brother and daughter, and turned around.

Then he saw a tall and strong young man holding his daughter Feng Yue.

"Bingkun? You are Bingkun?" Zhou Rong looked at her brother in disbelief.
"Why are you here? And you brought Yueyue with you. Didn't I write a letter to you? We'll go pick up Yueyue when your brother-in-law comes back."

"How dare you ask me why I'm here?" Mu Sheng rolled his eyes at Zhou Rong.
"We agreed to go back as a family to visit relatives, and Mom started preparing a long time ago, looking forward to your return. But in the end, you only sent Feng Yue back as your child. Mom thought something happened to you, and was almost scared to death."

"Ah, Mom, are you okay?" Zhou Rong was shocked.

"Oh, what do you think? Why are you worrying now? What were you doing earlier?"

"Bingkun, why are you speaking so harshly now?" Zhou Rong said dissatisfiedly.

"What's wrong with me being aggressive? You left without saying a word because you were happy and left me with a mess. Now you've left Feng Yue to me. You're disrespectful to your mother and you don't care about your own children. Can't I be more aggressive with my words?"

"Well, let's not talk too much. Yueyue is for you. I have to go now. If I'm any later I'll miss the train."

Mu Sheng was too lazy to pay attention to Zhou Rong. After putting down the things that Li Suhua brought, he turned around and left.

"Hey, Bingkun, come back. If you are disrespectful to your mother and don't want the child, just explain it clearly." Zhou Rong angrily chased after him for a few steps, but when she didn't catch up, she got even angrier.

Before leaving, Mu Sheng went to the village chief's house, dropped off some gifts, and asked him to help look after Zhou Rong and not let her run around.

Doing these is also to accumulate energy to change the plot. If Zhou Rong failed to go to Beijing to find Feng Huacheng in the later period, it would be a change. If she ran away but took the child with her, it would also be a change.

If he abandons the child to his family, then when the college entrance examination is released, Mu Sheng will write a letter of denunciation to report her and see if she can still take the exam. At least he can delay her for a year or two, which is also a change.

No loss left or right.
