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

Chapter 9 "Imagine Mother"

The eldest and second cubs brought a small pillow, which was also made by Gu's mother. The cloth was old and there were obvious marks on the stitching, but it was already very good.

After all, country folk had no source of income, and with so few cloth coupons, whose clothes weren't patched up? Many didn't even have pillows, and the fact that they had them was simply a favor from their grandmother.

"Third cub, fourth cub, lie down obediently and don't make trouble for your mother." The eldest cub taught his younger siblings seriously.

The twins smiled sweetly and lay down obediently.

The eldest and second cubs were afraid that their mother would chase them to the next room, so they lay down obediently, and four pairs of eyes looked at Lin Zhao.

"Why are you looking at me? Can't you sleep?" Lin Zhao asked with a smile.

"I feel so full today, my stomach doesn't feel uncomfortable at all." Erzai touched his full belly, his short legs crossed together, like a little old man.

Lin Zhao raised her eyes and asked, "Don't you usually eat enough?"

Erzai hugged her waist and cried miserably: "I'm not full! Not full at all! It's all soup, I don't care about being full at all!"

Lin Zhao did not suspect that Gu's mother abused her two children, because the food in the old house was like that. The lunch was okay, but the dinner was so watery that you could see your face in it.

"From now on, mom will cook for you so that you can eat your fill and grow tall." Lin Zhao coaxed gently.

Erzai suddenly looked up and grinned, "I believe it. Mom will keep her word."

The eldest boy looked at his younger brother nestled in his mother's arms, his eyes full of envy.

The third and fourth cubs also sat up and wanted to be held by their mother.

Lin Zhao told them to sit still, patted Erzai's shoulder, and said, "Hurry up, let me measure you."

She took out a tape measure and waved her hand.

"Mom wants to make clothes for me?!" Erzai held down his younger brother and sister who wanted to be hugged by his mother, his eyes shining incredibly brightly.

The eldest was also a little excited.

"Yes, I'll make some clothes for you two." Lin Zhao said with a smile, "I bought some cloth."

Erzai stood up with his arms open. Under the dim light, his smile was as bright as the sun.

Lin Zhao took the measurements swiftly, wrote them down in a notebook beside her, and waved to the eldest child, "Big boy, it's your turn. Second boy, keep an eye on the third and fourth children."

Erzai responded with full energy: "Hey!"

The eldest son walked to the bedside and looked at his mother with admiration in his eyes, "Thank you, mother."

Lin Zhao measured herself up as usual and said with a smile, "I'll take your thanks. Go lie down quickly. It's getting late, and children shouldn't stay up late."

After saying that, she took out the cloth from the cupboard and started cutting.

There is no country girl who doesn't know how to make clothes. Lin Zhao had a strong learning ability since she was young, and she learned it in just half a month.

"Mom, can you make clothes?" The second child, who was lying on the outside, looked at his mother with a smile.

Lin Zhao rolled her eyes at him and said, "I already know how to do it."

"Has mother ever made clothes for me and my brother?" Erzai asked again.

"I haven't done it." Lin Zhao paused. "I just can't bear to part with the money."

Erzai's face froze.

After a moment, he asked anxiously, "Mom, are you willing to give it up now?"

Lin Zhao used candlelight to cut the cloth in her hands. She had not made clothes for several years and her skills had not improved.

"I'm willing to give it up." She smiled, "I suddenly remembered that you four are my precious eggs that I gave birth to with great difficulty. You are too well-behaved. I want to be a good mother."

When Erzai heard his mother say that they were precious babies, he was filled with joy from the bottom of his heart.

"Mother is also our precious egg."

"..."

Lin Zhao was helpless and changed the subject: "Go to sleep quickly, you have to get up early tomorrow morning."

Erzai closed his eyes, then opened them again after a while and asked expectantly, "Will Mom cook tomorrow morning?"

"Do it." Lin Zhao chuckled. Her jade-white face was beautiful and gentle under the dim light, leaving a deep impression on Dazi's heart. He never forgot it until he had children.

"Didn't I say it all? I'll do it from now on."

The eldest son was worried that his mother would be tired, so he took the initiative to say, "I can learn to cook, and when I learn it, I will cook for you."

Lin Zhao's motherly heart softened and softened as she smiled and replied, "Okay, you're such a good boy."

The second child was an ambitious boy. He said immediately, "When I grow up and make a lot of money, I will buy a big restaurant for Mom, hire the best chef to cook for her, and let her be the young lady."

"!"

Forget the first part, but as for the second part, do you want to send your mother to jail?

Lin Zhao frowned.

"Who did you learn this from?"

Erzai was very good at reading people's expressions. He immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing and said obediently, "I heard it from the village lady."

Just guess it.

Lin Zhao looked at him sternly. "Don't imitate the villagers' speech anymore. If I hear you imitating that nonsense again, you won't get any candy at home."

According to the plot of the book, chaos will soon break out, and anyone who says words like "young lady" will be in trouble.

She couldn't tell Erzai directly what was going to happen next, so she could only threaten him with his favorite candy.

Erzai almost jumped up and said, "I won't learn anymore! I won't learn anymore!"

Just kidding, compared to learning gossip, sugar is more important than anything else.

Lin Zhao was a little worried, so she turned to Da Zi and told him, "Da Zi, take good care of your brother."

The eldest child loved helping his mother, so he nodded solemnly, "Yes."

While they were talking, Lin Zhao had cut the cloth and was waiting to sew it tomorrow. She didn't have a watch and had no idea what time it was. Feeling a little sleepy, she put away her things.

"Go to sleep."

The twins, a boy and a girl, fell asleep early, lying on their backs with their stomachs rising and falling, their little legs sticking up, and their cheeks rosy.

Lin Zhao adjusted the two little ones' sleeping positions, covered their bellies with new blankets, and said to the eldest and second cubs, "Big cub, little cub, lie down. Mother is going to blow out the lights."

"Lie down." said the eldest son.

Lin Zhao blew out the lights and lay down. Soon, the two older friends also fell into a deep sleep.

After the children fell asleep, Lin Zhao rubbed her hands and started the lottery.

The red pointer turned and turned, and finally stopped.

Stop at the bath and skin care set column.

【Laundry soap × 2 pieces】

【Shampoo × 1 bottle】

【Rose scented shower gel × 1 bottle】

【Softening and moisturizing conditioner × 1 bottle】

【Baking soda whitening toothpaste × 1】

【Soft-bristled toothbrush × 5 pieces】

【Whitening and moisturizing body lotion × 1 bottle】

【Moisturizing and hydrating face cream × 1 bottle】

[Hydrating and Moisturizing Children's Cream × 1 bottle]

【Moisturizing facial soap × 1】

All of them are urgently needed at home.

Lin Zhao got up quietly, silently recited "extract", put the newly drawn things into the cabinet, yawned, and went to bed.

-
The old house of the Gu family, the house where the main room is located.

Tiedan tossed and turned, unable to sleep, and asked his brother, "Tiechui, did you really eat eight dumplings today?"

"Hmm." Tiechui lay straight, stroking his bulging belly with his right hand, his skinny, dark face full of satisfaction. "The dumplings made by Third Aunt are as big as a fist. When you bite into them, they are full of meat. They are made of white flour and taste delicious."

Tiedan was so envious that he wanted to cry.

"Why didn't you leave one for me?" he complained.

Tiechui looked puzzled, "Didn't I say that only what you eat belongs to you."

Tiedan wanted to slap himself, because he regretted it.

"If you have something delicious in the future, leave some for me, and I will leave some for you too."

"No." Little Hammer shook his head and refused, "I want to give it to the eldest and second cubs."

"I won't give it to you. You eat too much." He also gave a considerate explanation.

Tiedan seemed to be able to hear the sound of a broken heart, and said in a faint tone: "Tiechui, I am your brother, your biological brother."

What's wrong with leaving some food for your brother?
Tiechui turned over and didn't listen to what he said, muttering: "Big Cub and Second Cub are also my brothers, the best brothers."

Tiedan was angry and sad, and said, "I washed your diapers for nothing!"

After saying this, he turned over.

Brother washes his diapers?

Little Tiechui couldn't lie still any longer. He moved his body like a worm and stopped beside his mother Huang Xiulan. He whispered, "Mom, has my brother ever washed my diapers?" The child looked confused.

Huang Xiulan found her son's expression so funny and teased him: "If it is, what are you going to do? If it is not, what are you going to do?"

Tiechui glanced at his brother's resentful back and had already made a plan in mind.

"If you've washed my diapers, I'll leave the good stuff for you. If you haven't, I'll leave it for the older and younger kids."

Huang Xiulan originally didn't like her youngest son to be too close to the third son's child. Those two children were too smart, and the third son's wife didn't care about their eating, drinking, defecating or urinating. She was afraid that Tiechui would suffer.

I didn't expect that Lin Zhao would actually invite Tiechui to eat dumplings.

It's strange.

However, since her son benefited from it, the shrewd Mrs. Gu would certainly not say anything.

Tiechui poked Huang Xiulan's arm and asked earnestly, "Mom, has my brother ever washed my diapers?"

The boy behind him stiffened.

Even though I cried because of the stink halfway through washing it, it still counts as washing, right?!
Huang Xiulan glanced at Tiedan and said with a smile, "It can be considered washed."

Tiechui was confused, what does it mean to be washed?

"Why do you smell nice to me?" Huang Xiulan had smelled a fragrance on Tiechui a long time ago, but she had never asked. Now that she was closer, the smell was even more obvious.

Tiechui smiled innocently, "Auntie San applied some vanishing cream on me, and my eldest, second, and twin boys and girls are all sweet-smelling little kids."

Huang Xiulan didn't expect Lin Zhao to have changed so much and was full of doubts.

What happened to the third daughter-in-law?
The next day.

Lin Zhao woke up in a daze, feeling hot and breathless. When she opened her eyes, she saw the twins sleeping on top of her in a strange position.

The eldest and second cubs also crowded around him.

She picked up the third and fourth cubs, put them aside, sat up, and fanned them with her hands. She was still sleepy and not fully awake.

it's too hot.

The eldest and second cubs were also woken up by the heat. The two children's slightly longer hair was wet, and their faces were covered with marks of the cooling mats, and were red from the heat.

"Mom." The eldest son's steady voice now had the childish innocence of a child.

Lin Zhao lowered her voice and said, "Are you still sleepy? If you are, sleep a little longer."

"Where's mom?" The eldest boy rubbed his eyes and became a little more awake.

"I'm not sleepy anymore. It's just too hot. I'll go out and take a shower and make breakfast for you. What do you want to eat?" Lin Zhao asked.

"Whatever Mom cooks is delicious." The eldest son thought of the dumplings he had eaten yesterday and swallowed his saliva.

Lin Zhao was overjoyed by the praise. After a moment's hesitation, she said, "I'll make you some egg custard. It's so good that even the third and fourth cubs can eat it. Is that okay?"

"Okay." The eldest said happily.

The mother and son got out of bed quietly and came to the yard.

It's windy outside, and the temperature hasn't risen yet in the early morning. It's much more comfortable outside than inside.

Lin Zhao opened the window to allow air to circulate in the room.

"Big one, let's wash first." She took out the facial soap and four soft-bristled toothbrushes and introduced them to the eldest one one by one: "This is the facial soap. You and your brothers and sisters can also use it to wash your hands. This is the toothbrush I bought for you. When the second ones wake up, you will be responsible for distributing them to them."

Dazai stretched out his hands to take the things Lin Zhao gave him, carefully placed the three toothbrushes back on the table, and took his own toothbrush to brush his teeth.

It was his first time brushing his teeth and he felt very fresh. He imitated his mother, brushing left, right, up and down. Occasionally, when he met Lin Zhao's smiling eyes, he would also smile with his eyes curved.

Lin Zhao spit out the mouthwash and told her son, "Don't swallow the toothpaste water. Spit it out."

The eldest boy's cheeks were puffed up, his mouth was surrounded by white foam, and he nodded.

Lin Zhao tried to wash her face with the facial soap she had drawn. It smelled nice and was very comfortable to use. It didn't make her skin dry at all. Her skin felt moisturized and comfortable. However, she was used to applying some cold cream after washing her face.

When I got back to the house, I remembered the face cream I got last night. Since I didn’t use the vanishing cream, I just applied the one I got.

Outside the house, the eldest child washed his face with facial soap for the first time. The smell was so good that he wanted to bite the soap.

Lin Zhao leaned half of her body out of the window and whispered to him, "Big boy, come in after you wash up. I'll put some face cream on you."

Hearing this, the eldest son washed off the foam on his face, dried his face with a towel, and ran into the house. The moment he stepped through the door, he subconsciously lowered his footsteps.

Lin Zhao's expression softened and she applied facial cream on the eldest child.

"Smells good, right?" she asked.

"It smells good." The eldest child answered his mother's question in a low voice, with a puzzled tone: "It tastes different from last night."

Lin Zhao didn't feel guilty at all. She raised an eyebrow and said, "I don't understand. Women like all kinds of skin care products. This is still considered a small number."

The eldest boy suddenly understood and said, "When I grow up and become a worker, I will buy a lot of vanishing cream for mom."

Regardless of whether this is true or not, it always warms the heart.

"Okay, I'll wait." Lin Zhao pointed to the bottle of children's face cream and said, "This is for children. You and your younger siblings must remember to apply it after washing your face."

The eldest child asked, "If I apply it, will I be as white as my mother?"

Lin Zhao almost laughed out loud, "You want to become white?"

The eldest child looked up at her and smiled shyly, "I want to be like mom."

"Huh?" Lin Zhao was puzzled.

The eldest boy lowered his eyes and did not answer.

The villagers said that they were too dark to look like mothers.

Lin Zhao didn't press her son's questions, but simply said, "You and the second cub are tanned because of the sun. Look at the third and fourth cubs, aren't they fair and tender? After raising them for a while, you and the second cub will also become fair and tender children, just like me."

The eldest cub became happy and said seriously: "I will remind my younger brothers and sisters to wipe it."

Lin Zhao put her arm around her son's thin shoulders and led him out of the house.

"Let's go and make you some steamed egg custard."

"What else do you want to eat besides egg custard?"

"I'll help Mom light the fire," said the eldest son, and then replied, "Steamed egg custard is enough."

"That's fine. It won't be long before lunch anyway."

The mother and son started busying themselves in the kitchen.

Gu Dazai sat on a small stool to help watch the fire. He looked at his mother from time to time, with a smile on his face.

Soon, an enticing aroma emanated from the pot.

"Mom, it smells so good." The eldest boy sat on a small stool, his nose twitching and he took a deep breath, almost being dizzy by the fragrance.

Mother beat four eggs.
