After transmigrating into the body of the female supporting character's biological mother, she

Zheng Hui thought to herself that Zhilan had raised the children very well. She walked out of the bathhouse and said, "Go on, let Qiangqiang show you the way."

Everyone living here is an acquaintance, and the kids are all grown up, so there's nothing to worry about.

Jiang Chengzhou opened the door and led his younger sister and brothers out.

The post office was indeed not far from Chen Jin's home, less than 200 meters away.

Jiang Chengzhou picked up the receiver and dialed a number.

Long-distance calls will have to wait.

There were children playing marbles on the ground nearby, and the two younger children were attracted to them.

But if the two of them don't have marbles, the other person won't play with them.

Su Li had no choice but to go to Jiang Chengzhou and said, "Brother, I want to buy marbles."

Jiang Chengzhou raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Aren't you rich? Go buy it yourself."

Su Li came to see her brother because she couldn't bear to spend her own money. Hearing Jiang Chengzhou say this, she chuckled and said, "My money is at home. I didn't bring it with me."

As soon as Su Li stuck out his butt, Jiang Chengzhou knew what kind of nonsense he was about to spout.

"I can lend it to you, but you can return it when you get home, okay?"

Su Li rolled her eyes and said, "Fine, I'm not playing anymore."

Jiang Chengzhou couldn't stand his stinginess. Seeing him and Chen Yanqiang watching the other children play with longing eyes, he took out a dime and gave it to him, saying, "Go buy some marbles, you don't need to pay it back."

Su Li cheered and went with Chen Yanqiang to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy marbles.

The call connected at that moment, and Linlin happily spoke with Lin Zhilan, sharing her experiences along the way, even telling Lin Zhilan in detail about the large bowl of cold noodles she ate that afternoon.

Jiang Chengzhou spoke a few words to his aunt and then handed the microphone back to his sister.

His brows were already furrowed.

Su Li was so engrossed in playing marbles that he lay sprawled on the ground, with two grayish-black stains on the knees of his pants.

Children grow quickly, so Lin Zhilan buys new clothes for her three children every year.

Su Li and Lin Lin never wore other people's old clothes, except for Su Li.

It's not that Lin Zhilan doesn't want to buy him clothes, it's just that this kid goes through too many clothes.

Liu Chunhua once joked that Su Li had mouths on his knees and buttocks and could eat clothes.

A pair of pants won't last long; there will always be a hole in the knee or the butt.

Su Li also became the child who inherited his brother's clothes.

Jiang Chengzhou strode over, picked him up, and said, "Don't you want your pants? This isn't home; if they get dirty, you won't have any to change into."

Su Li stood up, dusted off his knees, and gave Jiang Chengzhou a fawning smile.

Jiang Chengzhou tapped him on the head. "Keep playing, but don't kneel on the ground!"

After saying goodbye to her mother and hanging up the phone, Linlin was approached by a girl who looked at her maliciously. "Zhou Lin, you're feeling pretty smug right now, aren't you?"

……

Zhou Yue got married very young.

The husband, Gu Zhiyuan, comes from a well-off family. His grandfather was a retired commander, his father-in-law is a county leader, and his mother-in-law works at a hospital as the head of the gynecology department.

Gu Zhiyuan had good grades. After graduating from university, he married her and was assigned to a government department.

Although the couple occasionally had minor disagreements, they had a good relationship, and Zhou Yue felt she had nothing to be dissatisfied with.

The only headache was that her in-laws had never really liked her before the marriage, but with Gu Zhiyuan protecting her and not living with them, Zhou Yue always felt that she was living a pretty happy life.

But every time she went back to her parents' home, she would feel depressed for a long time.

My father, Zhou Jianjun, had been stuck in the position of deputy regimental commander for a long time and always wanted to move up.

According to military regulations, only officers at the regimental level who have served for 30 years and are over 50 years old can retire from the military upon approval.

Zhou Jianjun was the deputy regimental commander, and he had to retire when he reached the required age.

He was unwilling to accept this, so he had no choice but to ask Zhou Yue for help.

Hopefully, when she gets home, she can talk to Gu Zhiyuan's grandfather and try to smooth things over for him.

Zhou Yue, of course, could not agree to that.

Grandpa Gu Zhiyuan was a man who clearly distinguished between public and private matters, and he couldn't stand these underhanded tactics.

He did have some influence in the army, but among the children of Gu Zhiyuan's generation, only one joined the army, and his grandfather never showed him any special care.

Her in-laws already looked down on her family, and her grandfather was already on her side. Zhou Yue couldn't afford to offend her grandfather and ruin her image in his eyes.

She refused, so Zhou Jianjun threw a tantrum at home, slammed the door, and left.

Song Fang scolded her for being immature, saying that even though she married well, it was useless and she couldn't help her father.

Zhou Yue was about to leave in anger, but Song Fang stopped her, saying, "Your younger brother is already so grown up, he'll be getting married in a few years. I heard there's a development zone in Guangzhou that sells really nice apartments, some even with elevators. I'm planning to buy one for your brother, but we don't have enough money..."

Zhou Yue sighed inwardly, "How much do you need?"

"I've checked the price, it's not very expensive. I don't need to buy the best for your brother, just give me 200,000."

"Two hundred thousand?" Zhou Yue exclaimed in shock. "Where am I supposed to get that much money for you?"

"If you don't have it, ask Zhiyuan. If Zhiyuan doesn't have it either, then borrow it from his parents. I don't believe your in-laws can't come up with it."

Zhou Yue almost laughed in anger, "Even if they could produce it, I wouldn't have the face to accept it."

"Just say you're borrowing it!"

Zhou Yue looked at her mother and asked, "Will you pay it back? Or should I pay it back? My annual salary is only a few thousand yuan. Even if I don't eat or drink, it will take me decades to pay it back."

"You're hopeless!" Song Fang scolded. "I've wasted so many years of your education; Zhou Lin is better than you!"

Zhou Yue found it somewhat ridiculous.

The person her mother probably hated most in her life was Zhou Lin's mother.

Zhou Lin didn't say a single nice thing to her.

When Zhou Lin was admitted to a vocational school, her mother refused to pay the tuition fees and instead tried to introduce her to potential partners.

Zhou Lin refused and ran away to live with her former brother.

In Song Fang's words, Zhou Lin's mother was a vixen, and Zhou Lin herself never received any kind words in return.

Zhou Yue had heard from Song Fang many times that Zhou Lin was now living with two men and was rumored to be doing business with them.

Song Fang had been belittling Zhou Lin and the two men in front of her, but now that she couldn't come up with any money, she could use Zhou Lin to put her down.

Zhou Yue also disliked her older sister, Zhou Lin.

Song Fang had told her since she was little that Zhou Lin's mother was a vixen who seduced her father, which was why the family adopted Zhou Lin.

Zhou Lin is gloomy and withdrawn. She doesn't like to talk and often grows her hair long to cover her eyes, making her look sinister and unlikable.

Zhou Yue always stood by her mother, Song Fang, sharing the same hatred for the enemy.

But just a moment ago, she even envied Zhou Lin, who was not Song Fang's biological daughter and still had to suffer constant exploitation from her parents.

Zhou Yue shook her head, dismissing the idea.

She suddenly wanted to go see Zhou Lin.

She knew where Zhou Lin lived.

Since the reform and opening up, Guangzhou has developed rapidly in recent years, with dense shops on the streets.

Zhou Yue took a car directly to the Southern Building, where she knew that Zhou Lin's brother owned a shop.
