Rebirth at Seventy: Counterattack on Life

"Mom, why are you standing at the door and not going in?"

Xiao Wu was sweating from playing and came back with a small bundle of dry branches behind her back. When she saw her mother standing motionless at the door, she asked.

"Why are you coming back now? What time is it?"

When Mrs. Yao heard Xiao Wu speak, she immediately changed the target of her attack.

"Sister is back too. Mom, is the food ready? I'm starving."

Xiaowu didn't answer her mother's words and directly asked if the meal was ready.

"It's done. It'll be ready in a moment. Please wash it off quickly. You're all sweaty."

Zhou Jinxin took the dry branch from Xiao Wu's hand and said to her.

"Why haven't the other three come back yet?"

When Mrs. Yao saw that the two children were busy working on their own and no one was paying attention to her, she didn't worry about whether she would be angry or not, so she went straight into the house.

Seeing that the three students hadn't come back yet, they started shouting again.

"Second sister, third sister, what do you two think we should do?"

Jinjie, the old man around, asked with a sad face.

The reason why the three of them haven't gone home for so long is because Lao Sizhou Jinjie was invited to be a parent again? ,

"I'll go. I'm your sister, so I count as your parent."

Jinling, the youngest of three weeks, did not wait for the other sisters to agree, threw her schoolbag and ran towards the teacher's office.

"Bang" kicked open the office door.

"Who is looking for Zhou Jinjie's parents?"

Zhou Jinling asked aggressively.

"You, what grade are you in? What are you doing? Are you aware that you are vandalizing public property?"

There was only one teacher left in the office at this time, and it was Zhou Jinjie's class teacher.

He looked at Zhou Jinling in surprise, who had almost broken into the door, and then looked at the door lock that was still hanging on the door nose and fell to the ground, and asked in shock and anger.

"I am Zhou Jinjie's parent. Aren't you looking for her parents? I'm here. What's going on?"

Zhou Jinling tried her best to speak calmly, as if she didn't care very much, but in fact she was starting to feel nervous.

Zhou Jinkun and Zhou Jinjie, who were lying against the wall with their heads tilted, were both speechless.

If you pretend to be a parent, pretend to be a parent.

What is the operation of kicking in the door?

It's enough to ask the parents. If we ask you to pay for the family again, won't our mother beat us to death?

"Are you her parent?

How old are you when you become her parent?

Go back and call your parents. "The teacher pushed up his glasses and said seriously.

"I can't come. My dad is in bed and my mom can't get out."

Zhou Jinling said casually.

It's true that her father is bedridden, and it's true that her mother can't come out even though she has some moisture, but she can't come out for too long.

So, she didn't lie.

"Ok?"

When the teacher heard what she said, he raised his head and glanced at her. He saw that although she was not standing still, she spoke from the bottom of her heart and her eyes were clear. It seemed like she was telling the truth.

"Are you Zhou Jinjie's sister?"

the teacher asked.

"Ah, I'm her sister. You can tell me anything you want."

Zhou Jinling answered quite naturally, with the attitude that a copy should have.

The teacher frowned, but thought of the situation at her home and refrained from having an attack.

"Zhou Jinjie doesn't study seriously in school, is disruptive in class, and always fails in exams. If this continues, she won't be able to graduate from elementary school."

The teacher said seriously.

"Ah, she's not good at studying. I'll go home and tell my mother to beat her up, that's all."

When Zhou Jinling heard the teacher say these things about Zhou Jinjie, her first feeling was that she was her sister, that's all.

Then I thought, I can't say this in front of the teacher, I still have to let the teacher know that she can take care of things.

"Hey!" The teacher sighed.

Nowadays, both teachers and students think that the purpose of teachers looking for parents is to spank their children.

In fact, their purpose in finding parents is to get them to cooperate with teachers in educating children who do not listen to teachers in school.

"Not yet? What else? We have paid tuition and cannot drop out."

Zhou Jinling heard the teacher sigh and thought he was dissatisfied, so she quickly said it.

"Forget it, go ahead and go back and persuade Zhou Jinjie to study hard since you came to school. Now that xxx has been crushed, otherwise you would have no chance of going to school and getting an education."

The teacher sighed heavily, feeling powerless.

He waved his hand and asked Zhou Jinling to leave.

He picked up the door lock and nose that fell to the ground and picked up the tools to repair it.

"Third sister, what did you say?"

Zhou Jinjie saw Zhou Jinling coming out and quickly went up to ask.

"It's okay. I just told you to study hard. I didn't say anything about inviting parents, and I didn't ask you to drop out of school."

Zhou Jinling threw her schoolbag on her shoulder and said.

"Really? Third sister, you are so awesome. Next time the teacher asks my parents to invite me, he will ask you to come."

The fourth child said happily as if he had found a savior.

"You can pull me down. Who wants to take care of this mess of yours? Also, why do you always get invited to your parents? Why doesn't the teacher invite our parents?"

Zhou Jinling was shocked by Zhou Jinjie's words.

Again?

This fourth guy isn't done yet, is he?

If you don't teach her a lesson, she doesn't know how high the sky is.

"How would I know."

Zhou Jinjie pouted. She felt that she didn't do anything too outrageous, so why did she always get invited to ask her parents?

"Okay, let's go home quickly. It will be dark soon, so mom can't be angry."

Zhou Jinkun, the second eldest brother, saw the two people talking non-stop and quickly stopped them.

We are all hungry and we haven’t gone home yet.

"You guys still know how to come back? What time is it? If you don't go home directly after school, where are you going?"

Old Mrs. Yao stood in the yard with a feather duster. When she saw the three sisters Zhou Jinkun came back, she immediately rolled up her sleeves and started to dust.

"Hey, Aunt Zhou, if the child is playful and can just say a few words, is it worth taking action?"

Aunt Chen next door heard the commotion and lay on the wall looking this way, advising as she watched.

"Don't let me into the house yet."

Although Old Mrs. Yao was angry, she didn't want outsiders to see the excitement of her home, so she let a few children into the house.

"Aunt Chen, have you finished eating?"

When Mrs. Yao saw her daughters all entering the house, she smiled and said to the neighbor next door.

"Well, it's just those things every day, just take a bite."

Aunt Chen next door can't bring up any energy when it comes to eating.

Big pancakes and steamed buns are eaten with soybean paste, and occasionally can be served with green onions.

After years of eating like this, it's enough.

"Okay, I'll go back to eat too."

Old Mrs. Yao just asked casually, and after hearing her answer, she didn't say anything and followed her daughters into the house.

"Hey, you prodigal kid, why are you steaming San He Noodles buns out of season?"

Seeing Zhou Jinxin take out a small bowl of Sanhe Noodles steamed buns from the pot, Mrs. Yao patted her thigh in distress and pointed in Zhou Jinxin's direction, not knowing what to say.

"It doesn't matter if you have a meal once in a while."

Zhou Jinxin took out the lunch box from the cupboard again, poured the two lunch dishes into the pot, and heated them together.

There is no way, they can't be separated even if they are put in the same lunch box.

She didn't want to take a few bites at noon. At this moment, the food in the lunch box was still full. When she took it out, there was also a small bowl.

Now served on the table, it is a delicious meal that the family could only eat during the Chinese New Year.
