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

Zhang Xiuhua guessed correctly.

Soon she learned from the gossipy Aunt Wang that Miao Xiaohua was arranging a marriage for her third son. Miao Xiaohua was Li Jianxin's mother.

"He used to be disliked by everyone in the village. A grown man who didn't do any work worth ten points but squeezed together with us women was just a dishonest person." Aunt Wang still looked down on him. Even though he had a good job now, she still looked down on him.

Zhang Xiuhua had never been to Li Jianxin's house. "Have you talked about marriage?"

"Aunt Miao spent a lot of money on her son's marriage. She paid 60 yuan for the betrothal gift. If it doesn't work out, she will become a laughing stock in the whole village."

Sixty yuan is definitely a huge sum of money. Li Jianxin now has a good job, and some people are tempted.

"I heard that Li Jianxin is too picky. He either dislikes this one because she's ugly or that one because she's dark-skinned. Bah! Why doesn't he take a piss and look at himself to see what kind of person he is?" Aunt Wang snorted.

Zhang Xiuhua couldn't help but laugh when she heard her resentment, "Do you have a grudge against him?"

"No grudge! I gave him some advice before, but he didn't know what was good for him and turned against me! He is a dog that doesn't know how to appreciate a good person."

Zhang Xiuhua understood that this was an attempt to persuade Li Jianxin to come ashore, but the other party not only did not appreciate it, but also quarreled with her, which hurt her feelings.

Aunt Wang chatted for a while and then went home to cook.

Zhang Xiuhua returned to the house and checked the hygiene of each child.

After her improvement, she added several assessment items to the scorebook, such as the sanitation of each room and personal housekeeping. If both are qualified, one point will be added.

The children have finished tidying up and are waiting for her to come and inspect them.

Zhang Xiuhua put her hands behind her back, wiped her fingers on the kang, and found there was no dust on them. She nodded with satisfaction.

I looked through their wooden boxes. There was no wardrobe at home, so each child had a wooden box, and they put their clothes for all four seasons in the box. Because we were so poor, we didn't have many clothes, but they could fit them all in.

She checked and didn't find any smelly socks, so she looked at the corners.

"There are spider webs on it! This is not hygienic enough! No extra points!"

As soon as these words came out, Jidong immediately glanced at Youcai with disdain, "I asked you to clean the corner, why didn't you look up there?"

It was also Youcai's first time cleaning, and he had no idea that he had to check this area. He slapped his head in annoyance and said, "I will remember it next time!"

Cleaning is much easier than doing homework. He didn't get extra points this time. What a mistake. He will definitely get extra points next time.

After checking the boys' side, she went to check the girls' side.

Because the girls' side included Zhou Pandyi and Li Xiaoying, who were very clean and kept their rooms tidy, Zhang Xiuhua checked the kang and wooden boxes and gave Baolin extra points.

When Baolin saw his mother put a check mark in the scorebook, he ran to his brothers to show off.

After a while, he was driven out by Youcai who was angry and embarrassed.

Baolin happily ran to play with Xiangxiang, and Yaoyao followed behind her.

Not long after they went out, Zhou Panddy and Li Xiaoying came back.

Before, they asked Zhang Xiuhua to help them take the quilts and sell them on the black market. With two heavy snowfalls, the business experienced a small boom.

The two brought back four pairs of rubber shoes, all in the sizes Zhang Xiuhua wanted.

After Zhang Xiuhua tried the clothes on the children and confirmed that they were the right size, she sent them all out to play.

She checked the accounts with the two educated youths.

The two of them have many connections and can sell twenty quilts at a time without having to worry about sales.

Zhang Xiuhua has saved several thousand yuan, but it is still not enough to buy a house in the capital, so she needs to make more efforts.

After the three of them finished talking about their business, Baolin ran back from outside with a red face.

"Mom, let me tell you something." She put her little hand close to Zhang Xiuhua's ear, "I saw Uncle Jianxin holding the hand of a beautiful girl!"

Wow! This news is so explosive! Zhang Xiuhua subconsciously covered Baolin's mouth, fearing that others would hear it. She looked outside, "Where's Yaoyao? Why didn't she come back with you?"

"I'll let Yaoyao continue to monitor, and I'll come back to tell you." Baolin blinked his little face, looking innocent.

Zhang Xiuhua was both angry and amused. "What kind of good thing is this? It's even live broadcasted."

She was about to ask Baolin to bring Yaoyao back, but she was afraid that the child might make a big noise, so she asked for the location and went to look for it herself.

When she left, the two educated youths were extremely curious and pulled Baolin aside to ask, "Which beautiful sister? What's her name?"

"Uncle Jianxin calls her Rourou." Baolin blinked his eyes, "That sister is so fair."

Zhou Pandi and Li Xiaoying looked at each other, both of them were incredulous. They never thought that someone as delicate as An Rou would marry a lazy guy! This is really a case of "the pot fits the lid" - a bent melon is cut into vegetables with a ladle!

At this moment, Zhang Xiuhua came back holding Yaoyao's hand, and reminded her, "Don't tell anyone about this."

Yaoyao has always been well-behaved and nodded in agreement.

After Zhang Xiuhua entered the room, Baolin told her again, "Mom, Teacher Zhou said that Rourou is an educated youth."

Zhang Xiuhua opened her mouth in surprise and looked at Zhou Pandi.

Zhou Pandi nodded and told her everything about An Rou. It turned out that An Rou was an educated youth who had just arrived here at the beginning of this year.

She is beautiful, but she is very spoiled and always likes to tell others what to do. At first, people didn't understand the situation and were willing to help her. But later, people couldn't stand her behavior and ridiculed her.

She cried and asked everyone not to help her. Then she started cooking by herself.

She cooked one meal and ate it all day, and she piled up clothes until there was nothing left to wash.

Because she lived in the educated youth camp, and most of the educated youth didn't like to gossip and didn't spread her deeds everywhere. So no one in the village knew what kind of person An Rou was.

Zhang Xiuhua was stunned. She was considered lazy, but she didn't expect there was someone lazier than her.

"She and Li Jianxin are birds of a feather. Don't look down on each other." Li Xiaoying couldn't help but sneer. Li Jianxin is also good-looking, but rural people don't care about good looks. What matters most is that a man can earn work points.

"Is Li Jianxin too picky?" Zhang Xiuhua thought of how Li Jianxin had previously disdained other girls because they were dark and ugly. Now, he chose an educated youth who couldn't carry anything on her shoulders or lift anything with her hands. She would have to bow down and serve him when she got home.

"Aunt Miao must be so angry!" Zhang Xiuhua could guess that Aunt Miao would be angry if she knew the truth. But the matter was done, and she had to admit it.

Zhou Pandi and Li Xiaoying also breathed a sigh of relief. Without An Rou, the educated youth center could feel a little more relaxed.

Just three days had passed since this happened, and it could no longer be concealed.

The reason was that Li Jianxin looked down on everyone, so Miao Xiaohua chased after his third son and beat him. Then Li Jianxin told Miao Xiaohua about An Rou.

Miao Xiaohua heard that her daughter-in-law was an educated youth, and she felt a little disgusted that she could not work. But she was too lazy to take care of her son. As long as the other party was willing to marry and have children, her mission would be completed.

So that afternoon Li Jianxin told Miao Xiaohua about it, and that evening, everyone in the village knew about it.

Another night passed, and Miao Xiaohua learned from an educated youth that An Rou was a person who would never agree to the marriage.

If she says she doesn't agree, then she doesn't agree. This is a new society, and it's not fashionable for parents to take care of everything for their children.

If she didn't let Li Jianxin marry An Rou, Li Jianxin would be arrested and convicted of hooliganism.

Miao Xiaohua could only accept it with a pinch of her nose.

On the wedding day, everyone in the village saw Miao Xiaohua's dark face.

Xu Chunying and Zhang Xiuhua whispered to each other, "How dare she look down on An Zhiqing? She doesn't even think about the fact that Li Jianxin is ten years older than An Zhiqing!"

"Who says they aren't? These two are a good match."

Zhang Xiuhua looked at this talented couple and felt that the village would be lively in the future.
