Stepmother Reborn: Dad, my mom hasn't hit me for three days

The next morning, just as day broke, voices were heard outside.

Zhang Xiuhua yawned, got up and dressed. Youcai and a few others had already cooked the meal and were standing at the door looking at the neighbors.

Zhang Xiuhua took a look and was surprised to see that there were more than a dozen strong laborers helping at the door.

Before officially building a house, you need to dig the foundation. This work can only be done by strong laborers and is very hard and physically demanding.

It seems that Li Xingjia is quite popular, and there are so many people coming to help.

At this time, Zhou Cuilan came over with food, wanting to give food to these people so that they wouldn't work in vain. Unexpectedly, Li Xingjia ran over angrily, "Get lost! I don't want your things. Do you still want to harm me?!"

His attitude made Zhou Cuilan blush. She wiped her tears and said, "Xingjia, Mom was wrong."

Li Xingjia didn't listen at all. "The cat cries out for the rat in false sympathy! You are wolves in sheep's clothing! Get out now!"

The people around immediately advised Zhou Cuilan to leave, "The Xing family is still angry, Auntie, you should go back first."

Zhou Cuilan looked back every few steps, hoping that her son would change his mind, but Li Xingjia's attitude was very clear and he didn't say a word.

Zhang Xiuhua watched the farce and invited the children to eat, and Tiedan also ate with them.

Wang Honghua felt a little embarrassed when she saw her son eating here, "Thank you so much for troubling you."

"It's okay. Just adding a pair of chopsticks."

Wang Honghua didn't want to owe anyone a favor, so she turned around and brought food to Zhang Xiuhua.

After dinner, Zhang Xiuhua was about to go out to the field when Zhou Pandi and Li Xiaoying came over here carrying their luggage.

She smiled at the two of them, "Are you two going to school?"

Zhou Pandi nodded, "We have dealt with the things of the educated youth camp in the past few days. Now we will go to the school to register and familiarize ourselves with the situation there."

Zhang Xiuhua was worried that they would be late and miss the train, so she said, "Should I ask Hong Bing to take you to town? How long will it take you to get to town if you two walk?"

Zhou Pandi waved her hand and said no, "They are busy. We can't delay your farming season."

Zhou Pandi looked at the children. Jidong was reluctant to let her leave and his eyes were red.

Youcai secretly ran back to his room and gave them the scarves they had made earlier, "This is the rabbit we raised ourselves. You can wear it when it gets cold in the future after we make it into scarves."

Zhou Pandi took it, touched Youcai's head, and smiled, "Not bad! Thank you so much. You must study hard in the future, okay?"

Youcai's face fell, but he agreed reluctantly.

Baolin and Yaoyao came forward and hugged them, telling them to write back.

Zhou Pandi and Li Xiaoying both agreed.

After saying goodbye, they packed their luggage and left the place where they had lived for three years.

After seeing them off, when Zhang Xiuhua was recording work points in the afternoon, she saw that many educated youth were listless. It turned out that the educated youth who had been admitted to university had left Lijiatun, and the remaining educated youth had to continue to endure their lives in this bitter and cold place. They were all educated youth, but they were in worlds apart, and the gap between them was too great. No wonder they were so listless.

Just then, Zhang Xiuhua saw Li Jianxin. He was pushing a flatbed cart with two children sleeping on it. He was standing at the edge of the field taking notes in a notebook.

"An Rou is gone?" Previously, An Rou was the scorekeeper, and Li Jianxin did farm work. Now that he was the scorekeeper, it must be that An Rou was gone.

Li Jianxin nodded, "Yes! If we go with Zhou Zhiqing and Li Zhiqing, we will have someone to look after us on the way."

Zhang Xiuhua glanced at the child, who was only seven months old and could not walk yet, but could already roll over. "Why didn't you let your mother take care of the child? Did you bring him to the field?"

There are many insects in the ground, and the baby's skin is delicate, so how can it withstand the bites?

Li Jianxin sighed, "My mother is still mad at me."

As they were talking, a whistle sounded in the distance. It was the sound of workers leaving work.

Zhang Xiuhua and Li Jianxin also blew the whistle.

Miao Xiaohua carried a hoe and walked from the field to the edge of the field. She glared at her son and turned away.

I'm really angry.

Li Jianxin didn't take it seriously, instead he chatted with Zhang Xiuhua about Li Xingjia's gossip, "I was at home taking care of the kids yesterday, so I didn't have time to go. Did Li Xingjia really get into college?"

Zhang Xiuhua nodded, "Really. I saw it with my own eyes."

Even though she didn't graduate from elementary school, she knew most of the words.

Li Jianxin showed a hint of sarcasm on his face, "There are still such parents in this world. I thought I was weird enough, but when I compare myself to them, I find that I am a saint."

Looking at this arrogant look, Zhang Xiuhua couldn't help laughing.

**

A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and Li Xing's adobe house was finally completed.

Because it was the farming season, they couldn't build a big house, so they just built a small house of about 10 square meters, just enough for people to live in. There was no living room, just a bedroom. In addition to the kang, there were boxes made by the carpenter.

In addition, they built a shed with air leaking on all sides, with an earthen stove inside. The couple were both hardworking people, and they chopped a lot of firewood and piled it in the shed.

As for the main room and the side rooms, they will wait until the busy farming season is over before building them.

The house has been built and Tiedan moved back home.

Youcai secretly told Zhang Xiuhua, "Tiedan cried at night. He said he missed his grandparents."

Although Li Mancang and Zhou Cuilan were very selfish, they raised Tiedan from childhood to adulthood. Tiedan did not understand what it meant for his father to lose Tsinghua. He only knew that he was forced by his parents to break off relations with his grandparents and felt very sad.

Zhang Xiuhua looked at Youcai, "How did you persuade him?"

Youcai scratched his head. He didn’t try to persuade her. He didn’t know how to persuade her at all. He turned to look at Jidong.

Jidong was a little embarrassed. "I advised him not to mention grandparents in front of his parents, so as not to make them angry."

Adults' affairs should have nothing to do with children. But Li Xingjia was upset. He hated his parents so much that he would never let his son have contact with his grandparents. If Tiedan didn't obey and asked for his grandparents, Li Xingjia would probably vent his anger on Tiedan. Zhang Xiuhua nodded, "You are right to advise me. Tiedan can live without his grandparents, but he must have parents."

As they were talking, someone outside called out, "Aunt Wang and her husband are back."

Hearing the noise, everyone who was eating immediately rushed out.

Zhang Xiuhua also put down her chopsticks. She wanted to hear how they were going to resolve Xinghua’s academic status issue, so she strode out.

On the path in the distance, Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang were seen coming in dusty and fast. But after they had taken a few steps, they were stopped by a member of the community, "Mother Xinghua? Are you back?"

"How's it going? Is Xinghua going to school?"

"Who stole Xinghua's student status? How was the matter handled?"

Not only Zhang Xiuhua was curious, but the whole village, young and old, was curious about this matter. You know, this is the first time that the villagers have confronted the officials. If this matter is not handled properly, Aunt Wang and Uncle Wang will probably suffer. Now that they have returned safely, does it mean that they have solved the problem? !
