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

Chapter 33 "Cultural People"

Su Yuxian's knuckles unconsciously sank into his palms.

Alarm bells were ringing in my head.

She knew very well what Lu Yizhou's thoughtful look at this moment meant. It was the look of a hunter assessing the value of his prey.

He hesitated.

About marriage.

"Baozhen was frightened by Lin Zhao's dog." She said evasively.

"Lin Zhao?" The beautiful face he had seen on the road appeared in front of Lu Yizhou's eyes.

He subconsciously compared Su Yuxian with Lin Zhao, and regretfully discovered that she was no match for Lin Zhao in terms of either appearance or family background.

Lu Yizhou felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart, and even Su Yuxian's coarse cloth clothes seemed irritating to him.

And she is in her twenties.

In an instant, most of Lu Yizhou's thoughts of remarrying disappeared.

Su Yuxian didn't know that the rich husband she had finally married didn't want to get married for the time being.

Ten minutes later, Lu Baozhen ran back to the Lu family, and she tasted the mockery of fate.

"Marriage... let's wait a little longer." Lu Yizhou said.

At that moment, Su Yuxian's face was distorted, but fortunately she lowered her head in time so that Lu Yizhou did not see it.

"Why?" Her voice was shaking, and she tried hard to suppress her emotions so as not to scream.

What does Lu Yizhou think of her?
A nanny from the landlord’s family in the old times?

He must marry her!!

Lu Yizhou's eyes were blank, and this expression looked particularly strange on his handsome face. "I only have a few days off, so I don't have time to get married. I'm afraid I'll let you down."

Su Yuxian smiled, took a few steps forward, stood in front of him, looked up and met his eyes, and said softly, "It's okay, we can have the wedding banquet first."

"My mother said I'm too old to delay any longer." She paused, lowered her head shyly, and continued, "Besides, the whole brigade knows we're getting married. I've even informed Lin Zhao. If we don't get married and word gets back to the troops, I'm worried there'll be bad rumors."

Lu Yizhou hesitated.

A gleam of light flashed in Su Yuxian's eyes.

She knew Lu Yizhou. He cared more about his reputation than anyone else and preferred to compete secretly with Gu Chenghuai. If she mentioned that family, he would compromise.

"One day is enough for the wedding banquet." She reached out and hooked her hand around Lu Yizhou's, her eyelashes trembling slightly, feeling nervous and shy, but she still said with courage: "I want to start a family with you. I want to take care of Baozhen and your parents openly. I can do anything. If we get married, I will take care of the chores at home, and you just need to concentrate on working hard to climb up the ladder. In my heart, you are more capable than Gu Chenghuai. Without the burden of a family, you will surpass him."

The last sentence hits the nail on the head for Lu Yizhou.

He really thought so.

Although he was moved, Lu Yizhou still did not give in. He knew that Su Yuxian was more anxious than him, and he did not want to be controlled by the Su family.

The third branch of the Gu family.

Lin Zhao hummed a song and returned to the house. The eldest son waved to the second son.

The second cub was grabbing the big yellow cat's tail. When he saw his brother's actions, he stood up, clapped his hands, and ran over.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

The eldest child made a serious face and said, "You are not allowed to play with Lu Baozhen anymore!"

"Why?" asked Erzai.

The eldest boy frowned and said, "Anyway, you are not allowed to play with her, or I will ignore you."

"I didn't say I wanted to play with her!" Erzai said hurriedly, "I don't like playing with girls. They always cry. They cry when they lose a game, cry when they fall, cry when they don't have candy, cry when they're scolded. It's so troublesome. I only play with Bangbang Ge and the others!"

"You must remember this." The eldest brother was afraid that his younger brother would forget, so he reminded him again.

"Yeah, yeah." Erzai nodded several times.

"I don't play."

After agreeing, I still couldn't control my curiosity and asked again, "Brother, why don't you let me play with her? You didn't care before."

The eldest son didn't say anything because he felt his mother didn't want them to get too close to Lu Baozhen. He only said, "She scolded you, her mother scolded us, and her mother also said bad things about me. Mom and that little Su are not friends, and we shouldn't be friends with her children! If you play with her, you'll be betraying Mom and me!"

Erzai has always been heartless. When he heard his brother speak so seriously, his eyes widened and he waved his hands in a shadowy manner, "I won't play! I'll run away when I see her next time!"

The child was frightened by his brother and suffered psychological trauma.

The eldest son touched his chin and said, "It's not impossible, but it will prevent her from pestering you."

"Why is she bothering me?" Erzai asked in horror.

The eldest cub thought for a few moments and said seriously, "I want to trick my mother into making food and drinks for us."

"Don't even think about it!" Erzai said fiercely.

Tiechui came to play with the eldest and second cubs, and as soon as he arrived he heard these words, "Second cub, what are you talking about?"

Erzai couldn't keep it secret and immediately told Tiechui about Lu Baozhen's "plan".

Tiechui was stunned. "She's so smart at such a young age!? How scary!"

"Yes, yes, you have to stay away from her in the future. Be careful that she might cheat you out of your candy." Erzai said seriously.

Tiechui nodded vigorously, "I remember it!"

He was touched and said, "Erzai, you are really my good brother."

"You are also my good brother." said Erzai.

"Did you eat the watermelon?"

Tiechui hummed twice, his little face shining. He licked his lips, his voice loud and clear, like the chirping of birds in spring, wrapped in the purest joy. "Eat it! Have you eaten it? The watermelon is so sweet and delicious, even better than the wild strawberries on the mountain."

"My mother bought it in the county." Gu Erzai said without hesitation.

Lin Zhao took out some dog food to feed Dahuang.

Dahuang looked up at his owner. There was a tuft of hair missing from his head, and pink flesh was exposed there. It looked messy as if it had been kissed by a typhoon, and it was so ugly that it was unbearable to look at.

It rubbed its head against its owner's knees, then started eating.

Amber put her head directly into the bowl and made a lot of noise while eating. She was so anxious that she almost knocked over the bowl.

Dahuang growled at it softly, and when it didn't listen, he slapped it with his right paw. The little guy fell to the ground, whimpering in grievance.

"Huh?" Da Zi's eyes widened. "Dad Huang also hits his own child?!"

His expression was particularly adorable. Lin Zhao suppressed a smile and said, "Of course, if a child is naughty and makes a mistake, a mother will definitely teach him a lesson."

"Mom never beat us." The eldest cub carefully hid the little joy that welled up in his heart, and his body shook unconsciously, "It must be because we are well-behaved that Mom never beats us."

Tiechui continued, "I was also a good boy, but my mother still beat me."

The eldest child asked, "Why did your mother beat you?"

"Because I wet the bed." Tiechui said honestly.

Erzai made a small animal-like gurgling sound in his throat and froze in shock. "You're still wetting the bed?! My brother and I haven't wet the bed for a long time."

Tiechui waved his hands hurriedly and explained, "Not now, but in the winter."

Erzai fell silent instantly. He had wet the bed last winter too. "It's okay. Grandma said it's normal for children to wet the bed. We'll outgrow it when we grow up."

Lin Zhao was so happy. The children were discussing a topic seriously, their childish words were really funny. In the afternoon, the third room of the Gu family had braised pork ribs. Da Huang and his puppies also munched on the meat and bones with great pleasure. The mother and daughter dogs were so full of food that their tails were wagging. It was a day that even a god wouldn't change.

Dahuang has made great contributions today and must be rewarded.

After dinner, Da Huang and his cubs nestled in the doghouse built by Gu's father. Their bald fur rose and fell with their breathing, occasionally making a gurgling sound. They faced the afterglow of the setting sun, feeling extremely comfortable.

The twins, a boy and a girl, were playing beside them. When the two little ones were about to fall, Da Huang stood up and rushed over to steady them.

"Dahuang is really capable." Lin Zhao touched its head.

Big Yellow's tail swung even faster.

The next day, early in the morning.

At about six o'clock, Lin Zhao woke up, washed, braided her hair, and changed into a light green blouse with a doll collar that looked like two ruffles cut from mint paper. On her feet were the white round-toed leather shoes that Gu Chenghuai bought for her. The shoes had square buckles running across the surface, which looked fashionable and beautiful.

She had just applied face cream, and Mother Gu came over?

Seeing Lin Zhao's outfit, she was stunned for a moment, but instead of saying anything to spoil her mood, she praised her: "She looks good in this outfit. She looks like a city girl."

Lin Zhao smiled generously and said, "I'll be very sorry for the trouble from now on."

Mother Gu felt that the third daughter-in-law was indeed a high school student and was very good at talking. She smiled and said, "It's not hard to take care of your own grandchildren. It's you, the third daughter-in-law, who's working hard. You just go to work and leave the eldest sons to me. There are so many people in the old house, how can I not take care of several children?"

Not to mention that the third daughter-in-law was given a higher ration, the other two daughters-in-law of the Gu family had no objection at all and agreed wholeheartedly to take over the task of taking care of the older cubs.

Lin Zhao ordered two bowls of noodles, garnished them with a few simple vegetables and chopped green onions, added some meat sauce, and fried two eggs. The dish was so delicious that it was unbearable.

"Mom, you have one bowl and I have one bowl. Eat quickly or it will get clumpy."

Mother Gu wanted to say something, but she saw Dazai's mother buried her head in the food. She moved her mouth, but didn't say anything and just started eating the noodles.

She had never eaten such white noodles in her entire life. And this egg must have been fried in oil. It smelled so good.

"Zhao Zhao, you are a great cook." Mother Gu said that the ingredients were good, but the third daughter-in-law's cooking skills were indeed top-notch.

Lin Zhao was not modest at all. “That’s right. I didn’t learn much, but I just knew how to cook, and the food I cooked was delicious.”

"Then you are a person with a talent for cooking." Mother Gu said, "You are also talented in studying. The eldest and second sons will follow you and will definitely go to high school in the future."

high school?

This educational level is too low!
The book said that the college entrance examination would be resumed in the future, and Dazai and his friends had just caught up with the right time, so they had to get into university no matter what.

"Why bother with high school? It would be so much better to go to college."

Mother Gu was of course eager for her children to become more and more successful. Lin Zhao's words made her feel that the third daughter-in-law cared about the eldest son and was willing to teach him. She was very happy and said, "Yes! Go to college! I heard there is a Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University. I'll try to use some connections when the time comes."

Mother Gu has four sons, and the one she favors the most is Gu Chenghuai, who left home when he was young. As the saying goes, love the house and love the dog, so she also likes the older sons more.

Lin Zhao filled her stomach, estimated that it was about time, and hurried to work.

"We need a bicycle. It will be so tiring to walk there. I don't know if the third child can get a ticket." Mother Gu murmured.

While talking about the third brother, his old eyes flashed with longing.

The emotion was fleeting.

She washed the dishes for herself and Lin Zhao, swept the yard and backyard, and watered the vegetables in the vegetable garden.

The eldest and second cubs became drowsy.

"Grandma? Where's my mother?" The eldest son woke up instantly when he saw Gu's mother, and looked around for Lin Zhao.

"Your mother has gone to work." Mother Gu wiped the sweat off her grandson's face and poured water for them to wash their faces. "Hurry up and wash your face. It's all sweaty. It's hot, isn't it?"

Erzai replied, "It's hot, really hot. I woke up from the heat."

Gu's mother said, "Just bear it a little longer. In two months it won't be this hot anymore. I heard there are fans in the city that can fan themselves, but they're very expensive and require electricity."

The eldest and second cubs listened attentively.

"I know that there can be lights only if there is electricity." As a child who has been to the county, Erzai is very proud.

The eldest child asked in confusion: "Grandma, why is there no electricity here?"

"Yes, why?" Mother Gu was also puzzled.

"Everywhere will be connected in the future. It's troublesome to connect electricity. I heard that we have to pull wires and so on. I don't understand. Some places are connected and some places are not. I think it should be done one village at a time." She did not fool the two kids, but expressed her guess.

"I hope it will be connected soon so that the light can be brighter. We don't have to turn on the lights at night. We can just pull the cord and it will light up." Erzai said.

Mother Gu didn't even know it was a pull rope. "Oh, the light can be turned on by pulling the rope? So convenient? How did you know it was a pull rope? Is that the same as a clothesline?" She looked curious.

Erzai puffed out his chest and said, "My mother said so."

"That must be true." Gu's mother said, "Your mother is an educated person and has seen a lot. Learn from her and go to college in the future."

"Yeah." The eldest boy had a serious expression. He listened to his mother the most and was willing to learn from her.

Erzai didn't know where his confidence came from, but he shouted, "My brother and I will both go to college!" He said it with full confidence.

There was a look of worry on Gu's mother's brow. It was difficult to get one place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, let alone two.

Both of them are treasures of the family, and she doesn't want to hurt either of them.

Mother Gu forgot that there were still a bunch of children in the old house. If they really got a place in university, she would be even more worried.

"Grandma, I'm hungry." Erzai's voice ended Mother Gu's worries.

"Grandma, go make some steamed egg custard for you." Although Mother Gu thought two eggs for one child was a bit extravagant, she would do as Lin Zhao had instructed. Just like the old man had said, the family split up, and now it became two families. How the children lived was up to their mother.

Lin Zhao rushed to the supply and marketing cooperative before eight o'clock.

There's already someone inside.

She looks like a lesbian in her thirties.

She glanced at Lin Zhao's braid and smiled, "Are you a new comrade?"

What a beautiful girl, Li Fen thought.

"Yes, I am Lin Zhao, hello." Lin Zhao smiled back.

"My name is Li Fen. I'm a few years older than you. You can call me Sister Fen." Li Fen said with a smile.

Pointing to the two counters, he said, "You are those two counters."

"Thank you, Sister Fen." Lin Zhao smiled gratefully, stuffed her with a handful of shrimp candies, and walked towards the counter.

Li Fen was stunned for a moment, then accepted the candy and smiled more sincerely, "Comrade Lin, if you have any questions, please feel free to come to me."

These words hit the mark exactly what Lin Zhao wanted.

"Okay, I'll trouble Sister Fen from now on."

Li Fen was not stingy when she received the shrimp cakes from Lin Zhao. She told her a lot about her work.

For example, how to get started quickly when you first arrive, what to do if you want to deal with defective products in the supply and marketing cooperative, keep good work records, etc.

After hearing this, Lin Zhao felt that the shrimp candy was really worth it.

As the morning light climbed over the faded "Develop the Economy and Ensure Supply" slogan, other salespeople came over one after another.

Two of them are old employees, and one, like Lin Zhao, is a newcomer.

One of the old employees glanced at Lin Zhao and the other newcomer with an aggressive look, snorted coldly, and was pulled on the sleeve by a colleague next to him. He rolled his eyes and went to his counter, with a long face and a lot of arrogance.
