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

Chapter 75 "Resentment"

"Mom?" Erzai turned sideways and looked at Lin Zhao expectantly.

"Lie down." Lin Zhao straightened his sleeping position. "Children can't sleep on their sides."

"Of course I'll take you with me. We'll go back together."

"Go to sleep."

Gu Chenghuai is young and strong, so he gets up very early in the morning. My guess is that the eldest and second sons will probably be woken up at around five o'clock to exercise.

"Oh." Erzai answered obediently and slept with his brother, head to head and shoulder to shoulder.

He closed his eyes for just a short while before opening them again. His eyes were bright, without a trace of sleepiness at all.

"Your father is back. Are you so excited that you can't sleep?" Lin Zhao said with a smile.

Not to mention the children, she couldn't even sleep.

The twins, a boy and a girl, were young and were sleeping soundly.

The second child pulled up the blanket to cover his mouth, and deliberately lowered his clear voice. He smiled and whispered, "Mom, can you play table tennis?"

"No, I didn't have such good conditions as you when I was a child. Do you know how much a pair of table tennis rackets costs?" Lin Zhao sat cross-legged on the bed, supporting her chin, and spoke softly.

Gu Chenghuai leaned lazily against the head of the bed, his long legs making a striking presence. He changed into a military green vest and knee-length shorts. His tight muscle lines were faintly visible, and he exuded a sense of strength.

Lin Zhao was afraid of losing control of her evil hands, so she didn't dare to look any longer and focused all her attention on the child.

"I don't know." Erzai shook his head and looked at his father. "Dad, how much is it?"

"Five dollars." Gu Chenghuai said concisely.

For a five-year-old, a Mao is a large unit, let alone a Kuai!
Erzai's pupils trembled.

Dad is so kind to them! ?
"Dad, you are really my real dad!" He blurted out, and his voice became louder as he became excited.

Five dollars.

A father who can buy a lot of things and is willing to buy toys for them is definitely a real father.

Gu Chenghuai was silent.

He would never say that he spent ten times as much on his daughter as on his three sons.

The fourth child is a girl, and the youngest, so it’s normal to favor her more.

Lin Zhao looked at the excitement on her twin sons' faces. Knowing the truth, she did not spoil the happiness of the two little ones.

The eldest child covered the second child's mouth and subconsciously looked at his younger siblings, "Second child, keep your voice down. If you wake up the fourth child, don't sleep!"

The fourth child is grumpy when he wakes up, and he will be even more grouchy if he is woken up just after falling asleep.

"Oh oh." Erzai covered his mouth.

The two brothers ran around all day, so they must be tired.

After talking about this and that for about ten minutes, they yawned at the same time and fell asleep in a daze.

After the children fell asleep, Gu Chenghuai dimmed the kerosene lamp, hugged Lin Zhao in his arms, and sighed softly: "Raising children is really tiring. You've worked so hard."

Lin Zhao played with Comrade Cheng Huai's beautiful fingers, her eyes soft, "Fortunately, our four children are quite well behaved. They listen to everything I say and are easy to manage."

If there was someone as naughty as Lai Mei or Tiedan, she would definitely have a headache.

Gu Chenghuai tilted his handsome face towards his wife's neck and asked in a low voice, "Dad is naming the four children?"

"Yes." Lin Zhao's expression was a little complicated.

"Dad, have you always been so...conflicted?" She chose her words carefully.

Seeing that Gu Chenghuai was a little confused, Lin Zhao rested her chin on his chest and looked at him with a smile. "A week ago, the task of naming the children fell on Dad. It's been many days, and we still haven't decided."

"I heard from my second sister-in-law that the lights in my parents' room have been on late for several days in a row, and my father has been getting up earlier. He starts flipping through his precious dictionary as soon as he gets up. When he goes to work in the fields, he mutters to himself, his brows knitted so tightly that they could kill a fly. He seems very worried."

"Is this okay, Dad?"

Gu Chenghuai didn't rush to answer, but asked, "Why do you suddenly want Dad to name the four children?"

"There are not only four boys, but also several sisters." Lin Zhao corrected.

She secretly asked her mother-in-law about the situation, but Mother Gu was afraid that Father Gu would feel pressured, so she didn't dare ask.

"It was quite sudden. I think Daddy's names sound nice. Gu Chenghuai, Gu Qingzhou, the names of my elder and second brothers, and Bangbang's names are all very nice. I'm going to help you lighten your burden and entrust this hard work to Daddy. Am I treating you well?"

She raised her eyebrows and smiled, looking particularly beautiful in the dim candlelight.

Gu Chenghuai looked deeply at his wife, then suddenly leaned over and sealed her lips. His hot breath penetrated her deeply, domineering and lingering.

After a long moment, he slowly backed away, his breathing remaining unchanged.

"Okay." His voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of restrained desire, and his eyes, as deep as ancient wells, were tinged with undercurrents.

Lin Zhao's chest was heaving, her fair face was as red as rouge, and her lips were glistening with water.

Gu Chenghuai pinched her waist and let Zhao Zhao lean on his chest. He gently stroked her back with his hands and answered her question gently, "It's okay. Dad is a tangled person. Just wait."

"How long will it take?" Lin Zhao grabbed his hand and interlocked their fingers in an intimate manner.

"At least a few months. But I'm back, and I think Dad will name the four cubs before I leave."

Gu Chenghuai wished he could rub her into his flesh and blood. His Adam's apple rolled slightly as he leaned over and placed a kiss on her forehead.

Warm breath sprayed on her ears.

"Miss me?" he asked with a smile.

Lin Zhao did not answer.

The corners of her eyes were raised, and her smile was cunning and smart. She leaned over slightly and kissed his Adam's apple lightly. Her movements were as gentle as spring water brushing past, with a hint of seduction.

Gu Chenghuai's eyes suddenly darkened, his body tensed up instantly, and his breathing quickened.

Just about to lean over——

"Mom, are you and Dad going to have five children?" A childish and somewhat hoarse voice suddenly rang out, breaking the beauty in the room.

"!"

In an instant, the air seemed to freeze.

The young couple separated quickly as if they had been electrocuted.

Lin Zhao felt guilty and panicked, and pushed hard with both hands.

Gu Chenghuai was pushed off the bed by her, and he almost fell heavily to the ground. Fortunately, he was agile and had a very fast reaction. He quickly adjusted his body shape and landed steadily, with a look of helplessness on his face.

"Zhao Zhao."

I was getting irritated, and not only was a basin of cold water poured on me, I almost fell off the bed!

He hasn't seen his wife for nearly two years and he wants to be closer to her. Why is it so difficult?!

The young officer was filled with resentment (﹁“﹁)
Lin Zhao ignored him and looked at the eldest child who had suddenly woken up. "Why are you awake?"

The eldest boy sat up, took out the handkerchief under his small pillow and wiped the sweat from his head, "It's too hot." He couldn't sleep well because his mother was not around.

After answering the question, I still haven’t forgotten what happened just now.

"Mom, what are you and Dad doing?"

Lin Zhao suddenly had an idea. "Your father has a pain in his chest. Mother is blowing on him."

The eldest boy frowned slightly and looked at his father with concern.

"Dad, does it still hurt?"

Gu Chenghuai: "..." The wound doesn't hurt, but another place hurts.

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

The eldest son was half-believing and half-doubting. He dragged the mat on his knees and slowly moved towards the bed, his eyes fixed on his father.

He stretched out his little hand and gently touched Gu Chenghuai's chest.

"Grandma and mommy said that daddy has injuries on his body, and I want to see them." The eldest cub's voice was childish but firm.

Gu Chenghuai was a brave soldier who always rushed to the front on any mission. His military medals were earned with blood and sweat. He had many scars all over his body, and the one on his chest was the most hideous. Lin Zhao couldn't help but tremble when she saw it for the first time.

"Big boy..." Lin Zhao was a little worried, afraid that the scar would scare the child.

But the eldest child interrupted her concerns and said, "Is it not possible?"

"Mom is worried that you'll be scared." Lin Zhao pinched the back of her son's neck. The child's skin was tender, soft and smooth to the touch, like tender tofu.

"I'm not afraid." The eldest cub's eyes were clear and bright, and he still insisted, "I want to see."

Gu Chenghuai smiled and rubbed his son's head randomly, "Are you so curious?"

The eldest child smiled shyly and said, "My mom said that children are extremely curious, which is very precious. Adults should protect it like a little flower and take good care of it so that it can grow up!"

"Right, mother?" He looked at Lin Zhao.

"Yes." Lin Zhao found that Zizi had a good memory, and it would be easy for him to go to school in the future.

Gu Chenghuai faced his son's stubborn little face and had no choice but to casually pull down his vest and quickly cover it up again.

"Okay, just take a look, that's all. I belong to your mother, and only your mother can see me." He frowned, with an impatient expression as if you were taking advantage of me.

Lin Zhao felt it was too painful to watch. She twisted the flesh on his arm, but it was too hard to move.

Gu Chenghuai’s speed was indeed fast, but... Dazai was always staring at him.

The child had good eyesight and could see the horrible raised scar at a glance.

The sensitive and delicate eldest cub's eyes suddenly turned red.

Lin Zhao guessed he would cry. Dazai was such a soft-hearted child.

She took the child in her arms and patted his little shoulder.

"Your dad is fine. He'll watch you grow up. He'll grow up with mom and grandpa, walking slowly and basking in the sun. If you make a mistake, your dad will have to pick up a stick and beat you... Don't be afraid, baby. Mom and your dad will always be with you."

The eldest child's eyes were red, and he showed the little red string on his wrist. He asked sincerely, "Mom, can I give the little red string to Dad?"

This is the second time.

He gave his red string to his family.

He knew it was for self-protection, but he was still willing to do it.

Lin Zhao would always be moved by the pure love of children.

Her heart was burning.

He took the eldest child's hand and placed a small red rope in his palm like a magic trick.

"Mom has prepared it for your dad. Big boy, go and put it on your dad."

The eldest boy's eyes were bright.

Glancing at his mother's empty wrist, he lowered his head slightly and whispered, "Mom still doesn't have it."

The way he looked so aggrieved for her made Lin Zhao want to just find a piece of red wool to tie him up.

But no.

The material and color of the small red rope that is pulled out are unique.

"The little red rope is my protective rope. I have you and your father. You are both my protective ropes."

The eldest son couldn't stand his mother's sweet words, his ears turned red, and he picked up the little red rope and tied it around his father's wrist.

"Dad, wear it properly and don't take it off," said Lin Zhao.

The eldest child nodded in agreement.

He said to his father, "Dad, you have to listen to mom."

A smile graced Gu Chenghuai's dark eyes, and the veins on his sturdy forearms bulged slightly, with distinct lines.

The slender fingers fiddled with the red rope a few times. The wheat-colored, powerful hands and the bright red rope created a striking color contrast.

"...Why did you suddenly become superstitious?" He looked at Lin Zhao, not caring about the safety rope.

Lin Zhao raised her eyebrows slightly but said nothing.

Whether it is superstition or not will be confirmed later!
But she hoped that Gu Chenghuai would never need it.

Gu Chenghuai raised his eyebrows, lowered his eyes to look at the little red string on his wrist, and felt a strange feeling in his heart.

Lin Zhao put the palm-leaf fan in his hand and lay down with Da Zi in her arms. "It's hot."

"Heh--" Gu Chenghuai chuckled and resignedly fanned his wife and children.

"Gu Chenghuai, tell your son a story." Lin Zhao changed into a comfortable position, closed her eyes, and let her son's father coax him to sleep.

Dazai looked at Gu Chenghuai expectantly.

"Okay." Gu Chenghuai responded and pulled up the blanket on Lin Zhao.

The weather is hot, but you need to cover your belly.

Gu Chenghuai got out of bed quietly, took out the comic book "Four Crossings of the Chishui River", and read it in a low voice.

Halfway through the recitation, Lin Zhao's breathing became even and steady, and she actually fell asleep.

Gu Chenghuai's eyes were filled with smiles, and he never stopped fanning himself with the palm-leaf fan in his hand or talking.

I waited until the eldest fell asleep before putting the book down.

He discovered something strange: there seemed to be not a single mosquito in the room.

The mosquito repellent bag on the wardrobe is so powerful! ?

Lin Zhao turned over and held the four children in her arms in a daze. She touched a big stove. The sleeping person frowned slightly, withdrew her arms, and turned over again.

The disdain was obvious.

Gu Chenghuai laughed angrily.

He got out of bed, wet the towel and wiped the sweat off his wife's face, then went out to take a shower and didn't come back for a long time.

……

The next day.

When Lin Zhao woke up, Gu Chenghuai and the twins were not in the room. The fourth child was lying on the bed playing with a rag doll, and the third child was sitting there looking up the dictionary.

Seeing his mother wake up, he smiled with his eyes curved, put his little face close to hers, held up the dictionary, and uttered in his little voice, "Mom, teach me."

Lin Zhao was stunned for a moment and rubbed his youngest son's head. "You're so eager to learn, Sanzai. You'll definitely be a cultured man in the future, just like your grandfather."

"Yeah." Sanzai nodded heavily, "Like grandpa."

There were footsteps at the door.

Gu Chenghuai walked in front, holding a red and white plaid dress in his hand.

The twins followed behind him. The two brothers, who were always full of energy, looked as listless as wilted eggplants this morning.

"Mom." The eldest and second cubs said in unison.

Lin Zhao was about to speak when Gu Chenghuai beat her to the punch and said, "Zhao Zhao, your skirt has been rinsed. You can wear it today."

"Did you wash it last night?" Lin Zhao was surprised.

"It's not important." After saying that, the man picked up the twins and called the older and younger ones out of the house.

Lin Zhao changed into a skirt and new leather shoes, but her hair was still loosely braided in front of her chest.

Her eyes are dark and bright, and when she smiles, they are like spring water, sweet and lively.

She walked out of the room.

Everyone in the yard looked over, stunned, and speechless for a long time.

After a while.

Zhao Liuniang stepped forward, walked in front of Lin Zhao, and circled around her. "Third brother's wife?! How come you look more like a city girl?! This skirt is so beautiful! It's so festive, even prettier than Meng Zhiqing's."

The eldest son reminded his second aunt, "Second aunt, my mother is from the city."

"Yes, yes, I forgot again. Your mother is from the city, and you four kids are also from the city." Zhao Liuniang said enviously.

"Which educated youth is Meng?" Lin Zhao couldn't recognize all the educated youth at the educated youth point.

"Mom, I know. Meng Zhiqing was the one who was beaten by my aunt and reported to the police." It was Erzai who spoke. "Meng Zhiqing also has a skirt, but her skirt is not as pretty as Mom's!"

He sat quietly, not as energetic as usual.

Father Gu & Mother Gu: "..."

"Are you tired, Erzai?" Lin Zhao asked with amusement.

The second child boasted, "I'm not tired at all. This is my first day. I'll get used to it. It'll be fine once I get used to it!"

"Mom, please don't despise me. I will definitely become as powerful as Dad."

After just one short morning, the child's hostility towards his father completely disappeared, and there was even a hint of admiration in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

Lin Zhao: "..."

Sure enough, no matter whether they are big men or small men, they all admire the strong.

"I don't mind. In my heart, you are all great no matter what." Lin Zhao answered her son while washing her face.

The twins grinned.

The eldest cub pestered Gu Chenghuai, "Dad, we want to play table tennis!"

Gu Chenghuai appeared indifferent, but he actually doted on the children. He immediately said, "I'm going to send your mother to work and I'll get it done for you guys when I get back."

Gu Yucheng asked curiously, "What is it?"

The second child was very good at talking. "My dad brought us gifts: table tennis rackets, a little yellow ball, a hammer, and Bang Bang Brother... Wait until my dad finds a good place, and then we can play together."

There is not much entertainment in the countryside, and Gu Yucheng wanted to have some fun after hearing what his nephew said.

"Cheng Huai, how do we do it? You tell me and I'll do it." He took the initiative.

Gu Chenghuai nodded, his voice steady. "The standard dimensions of a ping-pong table are... 2.74 meters long, 1.525 meters wide, and 0.76 meters high, with a 15.25-centimeter net in the middle. Based on these basic dimensions, I used an old door panel from my house for the table."

Gu Yucheng didn't expect it to be so particular. "Such detailed figures."

He couldn't remember it at all, so he looked at his eldest son and said, "Bang bang, take out your paper and pen and write it down. I'm afraid I'll forget it later."

Bang Bang laughed, "Dad, just forget it now."

Gu Yucheng threatened coldly, "Believe it or not, I will beat you up now!"

The boy curled his lips and went back to the house to get paper and pen.

"Uncle San, can you say it again?" Bangbang said embarrassedly.

He didn’t remember it either.

Sanzai, who was still holding the dictionary, spoke in a slow and gentle voice, which was unique to children.

"Length: 2.74 meters, width: 1.525 meters, height: 0.76 meters, with a net in the middle, 15.25 centimeters."
