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

Li Jianguo said he supported Zhang Xiuhua in building a chicken farm and really took action.

He wanted to help her prepare the crops while he was at home so that he wouldn't be too late to harvest the crops when he came back next time.

He asked his children to pull up all the vegetables from the private plot on the left, and then he ran to the brick factory to place an order.

At this time, buying bricks requires various procedures. He first ran to find the team leader, then went to the commune to get the seal, and then went to the brick factory to pay the deposit.

It was supposed to take a week to get the goods, but he could only stay at home for one day and had to go back to work immediately.

I became friends with the people at the brick factory and got the bricks on the same day.

He was too late to complete the remaining matter of laying the foundation, so he handed it over to his eldest brother and asked him to make sure it was done well.

When November comes and the weather turns cold, it is no longer suitable to build a house.

Li Jiandang patted his chest and promised to cover it for him.

Zhang Xiuhua helped him pack some things. In addition to selling Youcai's ginseng, he also had to help her with something.

She didn't want to raise chickens from the countryside, as those have a low survival rate. She wanted to raise white-feathered broilers, which can be slaughtered in 42 days and are very suitable for the season in Northeast China.

Li Jianguo had heard of white-feathered broiler chickens before. "Is this a foreign breed?! This chicken can't stand the cold!"

Zhang Xiuhua looked at him in surprise, "How did you know?"

"I have a friend from Pengcheng who was injured in the battlefield. A few of us sent him home and took a stroll in Pengcheng. Some places in the south have already implemented the household contract responsibility system, and our Northeast will also relax the policy sooner or later. By then, it will be too hard for you to farm alone, so you might as well raise some chickens. I asked around, and a man from Southeast Asia said that white-feathered chickens from other countries survive faster. But those chickens are very afraid of the cold."

"It's OK! They are ready to be sold so quickly, we can raise them and sell them. We will hatch chicks the following spring." Zhang Xiuhua has raised white-feathered chickens before. For someone like her who has no education and can only do hard labor, she worked on a farm in her previous life, so these things are easy for her to do.

Li Jianguo thought about it and it made sense. "Okay! I'll ask my comrades to help me ask. I'll get you eggs first, and then some books on raising chickens. Then you can learn how to raise chickens."

Zhang Xiuhua nodded frantically, "Okay!" She thought for a moment and said, "Don't forget to ask me about the chicken farming equipment and temperature control equipment."

After Li Jianguo left, Zhang Xiuhua's life didn't change much.

I spent another month looking for mushrooms, and then September came and the children went back to school.

This was Jilin's first day of school, and Zhang Xiuhua specially prepared new clothes for him to make sure the teacher had a good impression of Jilin.

But the child started to be lazy again. Youcai and Jidong were in junior high school and chose to live in the school dormitory. Zhang Xiuhua lost her two useful helpers and began to rely on Baolin and Yaoyao to take care of him.

But Baolin was impatient. She urged Jilin to get up three times, but he didn't get up. She got annoyed and left him alone. She said angrily, "Mom! This job can't be done. Find someone else!"

When Zhang Xiuhua heard that Baolin was going to quit, she immediately became anxious, "You don't want to eat egg cake anymore?"

"I'm afraid he'll piss me off to death before I even get to eat the egg cake!" Baolin pinched his waist and cursed, "How can there be such a nagging person? I can't stand him!"

Zhang Xiuhua looked at Yaoyao, and she made a rattle with her hands, "I can't do it, I can't wake her up!"

That's right! Yaoyao has always had the best temper, and she really can't handle Jilin.

Zhang Xiuhua looked at Zhuzhu who was sleeping soundly beside the bed. This child could handle it, but she was too young and she was still sleepy!

She accepted her fate, got dressed, and went to call Jilin.

Ji Lin was sleeping soundly on the kang. His two brothers were not at home, so he was alone in the room. The kang was wide, so he rolled around and ended up sleeping sideways.

Zhang Xiuhua was a little speechless. She lifted the quilt and patted his arm, "Jilin! Jilin!"

No movement! Still sleeping soundly!

Zhang Xiuhua pinched his nose, "Jilin?!"

Jilin couldn't breathe, he opened his eyes, saw it was his mother, opened her hand, turned over and continued to sleep!

Oh, this child is not afraid of her at all. She has no dignity as a mother!

Zhang Xiuhua ran to the kitchen and took the breakfast made by Baolin and Yaoyao. The two children just heated up the leftovers from last night and used them as breakfast for today. Fortunately, there were always pickles at home, so it was not too bad.

She dripped a few drops of sesame oil on the dish, and the aroma of the dish immediately came up and reached Jilin's nose.

Uh, Jilin is not talented, so tempting him with food is useless!

This made Zhang Xiuhua very worried!

Putting the dishes on the dining table in the living room, Baolin laughed out loud with gloating, "Mom, can't I wake her up?!"

Zhang Xiuhua rubbed her face and looked at the rolling pin behind the house. Otherwise, she would turn into a tigress and wake the person up? !

She suddenly remembered that there was a screaming chicken in the space, which was a toy left by Jidong's child. So she pretended to go back to the house to find something, and quickly came out with the toy.

She took the screaming chicken to Jilin's room and squeezed it.

The chicken made a crackling sound as if someone was grabbing its neck, which startled the two people who were eating in the main room. They immediately put down their chopsticks and ran over.

Jidong was awakened and sat up suddenly, thinking there was a chicken on the kang. He looked around but didn't see any chicken. Just as he was about to go back to sleep, Zhang Xiuhua pinched him again. Jidong then noticed that his mother had a yellow toy in her hand.

He immediately perked up, "Mom! What is this!"

Seeing that he finally woke up, Zhang Xiuhua snorted, "Hurry up and get dressed. I'll take you to register at school."

Jidong wanted to see what it was, but he saw Baolin and Yaoyao surrounded his mother, "Mom, where did this come from?"

Zhang Xiuhua casually said, "I bought it when I went to the county town to give a gift to a fan. It was just to wake up your brother."

She pinched it twice more, and the chicken screamed. Baolin laughed with joy, "This sound is so realistic!"

After Jilin got dressed and washed up, Baolin and Yaoyao had already gone to school. He sat at the dining table and ate while studying how the chicken crowed.

Seeing the child's focused look, Zhang Xiuhua suspected that he wanted to cut open the screaming chicken to see where the sound came from.

"Alright! Eat quickly, the food is getting cold!" Zhang Xiuhua reminded Ji Lin.

This child is a bit slow. Once he gets addicted to playing, he will forget about the important things.

Ji Lin then reluctantly let go.

After he finally finished his meal, he looked at Zhang Xiuhua pitifully and said, "Mom, can I take this to school to play with?"

Zhang Xiuhua agreed generously, "Okay!"

She rode her bicycle and took Jilin to school. After registering and paying the fees, she came back.

In fact, she was too relieved too early. On the first day of school, she used a screaming chicken to wake up Jilin, but after three times, this trick no longer worked because Jilin became immune to the sound!

Zhang Xiuhua felt a little headache and started to try other methods.

For example, they would find families in the village that had given birth to newborns, borrow rattles, beat drums and gongs, or falsely claim that there was a "fire".

Use each method at most three times and at least once, and then you have to try a new method.

After a week of battling wits and courage with Jilin, she was exhausted.

Her miserable life didn't end until Li Jianguo came back that day and brought something back.
