The mother of the era is reborn to support her cannon fodder children!

Chapter 26 "Standing Out"

Lin Zhao planned to take two pounds of pork, ten eggs, and the remaining four bottles of soda.

She had just packed up her things when she heard Erzai's shouting.

"Mom, mom, I have big news to tell you!!" The child's voice was loud and full of uncontrollable excitement.

Lin Zhao was very curious and walked out of the room quickly.

"What's the big news?"

Erzai said, "My aunt was kicked out of the house by my grandfather."

After saying that, he actually laughed a few times, "Hahaha..."

Lin Zhao: “???!”

Is that what she meant?

"Wait, tell me more."

Seeing his mother's confused face, Erzai gave his brother a look.

The eldest boy received the signal and his expression suddenly became serious.

then……

The two brothers started acting.

"Mom, I'm your aunt." Erzai spoke first.

"Then I'll be the grandfather, the eldest uncle, the second uncle, and the eldest aunt and the second aunt." The eldest boy named a string of people.

Lin Zhao: “…” There were quite a few actors in the scene at the old house.

The second child began to perform. His childish face was filled with an expression of deep resentment. His eyes were wide, his neck was stiff, and he shouted angrily, "That's my third brother's relationship. Why should she get all the benefits..."

Here he changed the lines. The children knew that Lin Zhao was their mother's name, so of course they would not call her casually, so they used "she" instead.

After the second child finished reading his lines, the eldest child came on stage.

The eldest child imitated his grandfather, looking somewhere with a serious expression, as if there were two people standing there. He frowned and said, "Send Gu Xing'er to your grandmother."

Having said this, he paused soulfully, as if the person on the other end didn't say anything.

Then he said coldly: "Don't do it yet."

Erzai twisted his body as if someone was pulling him, stretched out his arms and shouted, "Dad, I'm your daughter, you can't drive me away..."

after that.

Another conversation.

They even imitated the tone of their voices.

Lin Zhao knew who they were imitating without asking.

At last.

Erzai acted like he was being dragged, stumbling all the way to the gate.

The corners of Lin Zhao's mouth twitched.

"..."

What a dramatic actor.

She clearly didn't see the live version, but she felt like she was there.

"Mom, that's it. My aunt has been sent away." After Erzai finished performing, he ran back and said excitedly.

He laughed out loud, not knowing what he was thinking of. "The Hammer will definitely be very happy."

As he was speaking, Little Hammer came running into the third room, his eyes shining brightly.

"Big cub, second cub." he shouted.

When he saw Lin Zhao, he obediently called her "Third Aunt."

"Hey, you guys go play, I'll go take a look in the backyard." Lin Zhao was afraid that the three kids would feel uncomfortable, so she walked towards the backyard.

After walking a few steps, I heard Tiechui's voice say excitedly: "Big boy, second boy, our aunt has been sent away!"

Gu Xing'er was able to make all the younger generations in the Gu family avoid her by her own strength. She was truly the best of the best.

Lin Zhao came to the backyard. The entire vegetable patch was surrounded by bamboo fences, one row after another, very regular. There was a wooden frame inside. Once it was covered with green, it would surely be a lively scene.

She watered the vegetable garden, picked up the fallen leaves in the backyard, and returned to the front yard.

The older ones were still there, sorting the firewood against the wall. The three five-year-old boys were working diligently, making it a relief.

Lin Zhao smiled slightly and took out a bottle of soda from the net bag she was going to take to the old house.

Divide it among three lovely children.

"You guys have worked hard, share this bottle of soda."

Little Tiechui's eyes lit up, and he licked his lips quietly, looking greedy.

"Thank you, Third Aunt." He looked simple and honest, and his smile was even more simple and honest, which pleased Lin Zhao very much.

The eldest and second oldest were also happy when they thought of the taste of soda.

Lin Zhao was thinking about eating soon, so she didn't give the three children any food to avoid leaving them hungry.

She returned to the house and wrote a letter to Gu Chenghuai.

The content of the letter was mostly flattery, talking about the day trip she took her two sons on to the county, and the thank-you gift she gave to Yang Junzhi...

It took several more pages to finish writing.

Lin Zhao checked it and found no sensitive words, so she put the letter into an envelope, put a stamp on it, and planned to mail it out the next day.

The three little men sorted the firewood.

The second child saw that the water jar in the kitchen was empty. He peeked into the house through the window and said loudly, "Mom, there's no water in the jar. I'll go call my uncle to fetch some water."

After Lin Zhao woke up, she became very fond of cleanliness and the water consumption at home continued to increase.

In the past, Gu Yuanshan and Gu Yucheng took turns fetching water every two days, but now it is not enough every day.

"No need for now. I'll tell you myself when we get to the old house."

Erzai didn't think much about it, just said "oh" and used the remaining water to wash his hands and face.

Lin Zhao thought about it, then took out an aluminum lunch box and 5 feet of corduroy fabric, planning to take them to the old house.

The son's father is not at home, and there will be many things to do in the old house in the future. She can't always take advantage of others. Others provide the labor and she provides the things. She doesn't lack these things.

Suddenly it was time to go to the old house.

Lin Zhao went out with her things and said to the three children in the yard, "Let's go to the old house for dinner."

She glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw that the bottle of soda was only two-thirds full. She was slightly stunned, "It's already this late, and the soda isn't finished yet."

Erzai said seriously, "Good things should be drunk slowly, how can you drink it all at once?"

Dazai and Tiechui nodded, apparently agreeing with Erzai's words.

Lin Zhao shook the thing in her hand and teased the children, "Look what this is?"

The eldest boy's eyes widened, "Meat, eggs, and soda!!"

Tiechui licked his lips and his saliva was almost flowing out. The kid, who had little stomach fat, wanted to take a bite of the raw meat when he saw it.

"It's a big piece of fat meat!!" His voice was louder than that of the big guy.

Erzai took the things from Lin Zhao and looked at her with his clear eyes. "Mom, are we going to take these with us?"

"Yes, we have five mouths to feed at home, we can't eat for free," said Lin Zhao.

Erzai laughed openly, revealing the loophole in his mother's words, "My brother and I have been eating for free for several years."

Lin Zhao: "..."

She said calmly: "The past is the past, and the future is the future."

The second child wanted to say something, but the eldest child glared at his younger brother, and the second child immediately fell silent.

After glaring at his brother, Da Zi tried to take the other small bag from Lin Zhao's hand, but she refused. "This is for your eldest aunt and second aunt. I'll take it myself, and you and Er Zi can take that one, okay?"

"Okay." The eldest boy responded obediently.

Tiechui looked curiously at the small bag in Third Aunt's hand, but couldn't tell what it was.

Lin Zhao took her three children to the old house.

The second cub was holding a piece of meat that looked to weigh two pounds, while the eldest cub was holding a net bag filled with eggs and soda.

This scene is no ordinary show-off.

When the villagers saw what they brought, they couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Meat is attractive to adults, but even more so to children. Tie Niu saw the meat in Erzai's hand from afar and rushed over, drooling, "Erzai, you have so much meat in your hand." He really wanted to eat the fat residue.

Erzai was very proud and said loudly: "My mother became a salesperson in the county supply and marketing cooperative. My grandmother asked us to go to the old house for dinner to celebrate.

My mother said, "There are five mouths to feed in my family, so we can't eat for free. These are all prepared by my mother for my grandparents."

When the villagers heard this, their impression of Lin Zhao changed in an instant.

From being lazy and confused, he became filial, generous and cultured.

The eldest boy was afraid that no one could see what he was holding, so he raised his hand and waved it, saying, "There's also soda! Soda!!"

Little Tieniu had never drunk soda before. He stared at the orange water in the net bag, almost crying with greed. "I've never drunk soda before. Is brown sugar water any good?"

"It tastes better than brown sugar water!" Tiechui also had a proud expression, 100% similar to the two cubs.

Tie Niu is the captain's grandson. He is the first one in the brigade to have eaten the big meat buns from the state-owned restaurant. Now, all the food and drinks that the captain and his friends eat and drink are things he has never tasted before. The little boy is about to cry out of grievance.

"Woo woo woo, I want a soda too."

Seeing his friend crying with greed, the eldest cub looked at his mother and said, "Mom, can Tie Niu have a taste of the soda we saved?"

Lin Zhao smiled and said, "I've already told you that you can decide for yourself who to share the things your mother gives you. You are the masters of the family, so you do have some rights."

The eldest cub likes to hear his mother say that they are the little masters of the family, and his heart is filled with joy.

He looked at Erzai and Tiechui and asked seriously, "Are you willing to share with Tieniu?"

He also explained the reason for his willingness to share, "Tie Niu even shared his bird eggs with us before."

Erzai, who has no mother to care for him and no love for him, is a stingy and protective child. After knowing that his mother likes him, Erzai is willing to share.

"Okay, I'll share." he said loudly.

Tiechui just listens to the eldest and second oldest. If they have no objections, he has no objections either.

"I'm willing to share too."

Erzai grinned and said to Tieniu, "I still have half a bottle of soda at home. Let's drink it together this afternoon."

Tie Niu burst into laughter, his eyelashes wet, but his smile was huge, "I'll share some sweet wild fruits with you too."

“Okay~~”

The two little kids were short and only that tall, wearing patched clothes, and were talking seriously. It was so adorable.

In a short time, the news that Lin Zhao brought meat to her parents-in-law spread throughout the village.

Human nature is very complex—

When a bad person does a good thing, it is like a ray of light across the dark night sky. People are surprised to find that he is not hopeless, so all his badness is washed away by this moment of goodness. But when a good person does a bad thing, it is like a stain on a piece of white paper, so glaring that it cannot be ignored, and all his good deeds are wiped out by this mistake.

Lin Zhao was not a bad person, but she also belonged to the former.

With the publicity from Dazai and Erzai, her previous bad reputation was instantly reversed.

Yes, there are only a few daughters-in-law in the whole brigade who are willing to send meat, eggs and soda to their parents-in-law. What's wrong with being lazy? She is filial.

Because of the two pounds of meat, plus the two talkative mouths of the eldest and second sons, the few minutes' journey to the Gu family's old house seemed particularly long.

When she arrived, Lin Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.

The eldest and second cubs looked unsatisfied, with expressions of how come it came so soon written all over their faces.

Lin Zhao was speechless.

These two little brothers love to show off.

The mother complained in her heart, and the eldest and second sons walked into the Gu family with a masterful gait.

"Grandpa, grandma, we're here, we brought meat and soda!"

Erzai's voice was as loud as ever.

Gu's mother and two daughters-in-law came out from the kitchen.

When I saw the meat, I was surprised and happy.

Hey, what day is it today? The third son's wife actually brought meat to our house?!

"Third son's wife, what are you doing?" asked Mother Gu.

"Isn't it tiring to harvest twice a year? I just bought a few pounds of meat and brought it here to give you some to replenish your energy." Lin Zhao said lightly.

Mother Gu was stunned.

Lin Zhao took out the contents of her cloth bag and handed the aluminum lunch box to her sister-in-law, Huang Xiulan, saying, "Sister-in-law, isn't A-lan in need of a lunch box? This one hasn't been used much, so give it to her."

Gu Lan is the eldest daughter of the first wife and is twelve years old this year.

Huang Xiulan was delighted. After accepting it, she smiled and said, "Oh, it looks almost as good as new. Thank you, Third Sister-in-law."

Lin Zhao accepted the thanks and gave Zhao Liuniang the five-foot corduroy cloth, saying, "Second sister-in-law, you have excellent craftsmanship. Here are five feet of corduroy cloth. Make me an autumn coat. With the remaining cloth, you can make me a pair of trousers."

Zhao Liuniang's face was also filled with joy, and she quickly said, "Okay, I know your size, let's do it tonight."

Mother Gu was so surprised, "Make autumn clothes for me?"

"Yes, I'm making this for Mom," Lin Zhao said. "I have to go back to work in a few days, and Mom will have to take care of the four kids. This is my hard work pay."

Gu's mother is a very traditional person. She is reluctant to spend money on food and clothing. She gives the delicious food at home to her grandchildren, and she also gives the fabrics at home to her grandchildren.

She hasn't bought new clothes in many years, and her clothes have the most patches on them than anyone in the family.

The old lady felt a lump in her throat when she suddenly enjoyed the blessing of her daughter-in-law, and she almost cried.

She touched the corduroy material and said, "Such fine material, I'll make it for you, why would I make it for me? I'm old, why should I wear new clothes?"

"What's wrong with being old? It's more important to wear new clothes when you are older." Lin Zhao said disapprovingly.

Mother Gu felt very touched. The third son's wife was still a very good person. She was like that before, definitely because she was young.

Lin Zhao added, "Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law, water is used up quickly at home. It's not enough to collect water every two days."

Huang Xiulan and Zhao Liuniang then understood why the third daughter-in-law gave them benefits. It turned out that she was waiting here.

But the two of them didn't mind at all.

Carrying water just takes a little time.

The benefits they get are real.

"Okay, I'll tell your brother later." Huang Xiulan agreed immediately.

The third son's wife made a request, and she felt more at ease accepting the aluminum lunch box.

Zhao Liuniang was the same. Thinking that the remaining cloth could be used to make a pair of pants for her Yuyu, the smile in her eyes was about to burst out.

"Carrying water is easy. I will also remind Yuyu's father."

Both sisters-in-law benefited, and they liked Lin Zhao in every way.

This pleasing feeling reached its peak after eating meat and drinking soda.

Without Gu Xing'er, the meal at the Gu family was unusually harmonious, especially the children, who were all very happy.

There is meat, scrambled eggs, and soda. Even a god wouldn't want this day.
-
After a nap.

Lin Zhao took some time to fry the cicada monkeys that the children had caught, and a fragrant aroma wafted from the kitchen.

When Erzai woke up, he smelled the fragrance and woke up his brother. The two brothers walked towards the kitchen in their cloth shoes, rubbing their eyes.

When he saw Lin Zhao, he instantly came to his senses.

"Mom, it smells so good, what are you doing?" asked Erzai.

Lin Zhao held a large porcelain bowl and waved it in front of the two children through the window, letting the aroma spread. "Fried cicada monkeys."

The eldest child showed a shocked expression, "Mom, I've eaten cicada monkeys, and they weren't as delicious as this. Did you put meat in them?"

"I fried it in oil and added other ingredients, so of course it smells good," Lin Zhao said proudly.

She tasted it the first time and it was crispy and delicious, but it was hot.

"Go wash it quickly. It tastes better when you eat it hot." Lin Zhao urged the two cubs, also because she was afraid that the twins would wake up and make a fuss for food.

The eldest and second cubs washed up obediently, went back to the house and applied baby cream before coming to the kitchen.

"Mom, it's done washing." said Erzai.

The eldest child added, "I applied baby cream."

Lin Zhao praised casually, "You are so good."

I casually gave the fried cicada monkeys to the two cubs.

"You two go out and eat, don't let your younger brothers and sisters see you."
