Quickly wear: the cannon fodder girl refuses to date her

After the New Year, the weather gradually warms up and everything comes back to life.

Every household started to go to work one after another, and Zhao Lijuan came to visit again at this time, bringing with her several large sacks of rags and a hundred-dollar bill.

In all her years, this was the first time that Mrs. Li had held a banknote of such a denomination in her own hands. It would be a lie to say that she was not excited. Looking at the banknotes in her hands, she was filled with energy.

This time, without Chu Yu asking, she consciously went to sew the rubber bands. These are jobs that can turn into real money! No matter how much money you have, it won't bite your hand, it will only make you happier and more secure.

They had a very lively New Year this year.

As for Chu Yu, she was urged by her to write manuscripts. In Li Pozi's view, she could make money by writing - it was simply a gift from God!

Every time she saw Chu Yu writing seriously, Mrs. Li couldn't help but praise her.

She thought to herself: Ever since the separation, her daughter seemed to have suddenly become smart. She learns things quickly and does everything well.

Mrs. Li even thought that all this must be because those ungrateful people in the family were unlucky for her daughter. Now that they were living separately and far away from each other, her daughter would naturally become more and more outstanding.

One of them sews tendons while the other writes manuscripts, and they live a very comfortable life.

On Mrs. Li's birthday, Chu Yu specially made a birthday cake for her.

It is a very simple cream cake, but for Mrs. Li, it is a very special gift.

When she saw the eggshells in the kitchen, for the first time she did not feel distressed. Instead, she looked at the freshly baked cake in front of her excitedly.

She had never seen such pastries before, even in the supply and marketing cooperative in town - all they had were trough cakes.

Took a light taste.

Mrs. Li said with surprise: "Yu girl, this is sweet, soft and delicious~"

"As long as you like it, I saw my classmates having this kind of cake for their birthdays when I was in school. I heard that they bought it specially in the provincial capital."

Hearing Chu Yu's answer, Mrs. Li's face was full of pride, "My daughter is amazing."

After saying this, she turned around and started cooking noodles. If it were in the past, she would definitely be reluctant to do so, but now it is different from before~

Soon, each of the three people received a bowl of steaming noodles, and each bowl also had a poached egg in it.

Chu Yu took a big sip and thought it tasted pretty good~

Old Man Chu ate with gusto, praising as he ate: "It smells so good, it's so delicious! Old lady, how about..."

Before he could finish his words, Mrs. Li interrupted him quickly and asked jokingly, "How about you wash the dishes later? Or how about you go over there with your ungrateful sons?"

Hey little brat, don’t I know what’s going on in your mind?

When Old Man Chu heard this, he was stunned and the chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground.

He slowly lowered his head, silently picked up the chopsticks, and continued to eat noodles, his eyes always staying on the bowl.

After a long while, he slowly raised his head again, glanced at his wife cautiously, and said tentatively with a slightly trembling voice, "Old lady, I see that you are very tired from making rubber bands every day. How about sharing some of this work with the eldest, second and third brothers? This way, it can ease the relationship between us and also increase their income. What do you think?"

Mrs. Li frowned, a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes. She wanted to live a good life but she had to make trouble. "I don't think that's right! Except for Yu girl, the others are all ungrateful. Why bother trying to please them? If you really give them money, they might think you are hiding something and there is something else you haven't given them yet!"

Old Man Chu sighed helplessly, "Ah~ I just think that we are one family and we should keep our differences. After all, they are still our children. When our daughter gets married, she may have to rely on them. We are old after all~ We can't protect her forever."

"What's the matter? When we divided the family, I didn't treat them harshly. They all have hands and feet, and they have land. As long as they work hard, they won't starve to death. You should realize that our sons are selfish in nature. Even when we are old, we can't rely on them, let alone our daughter. If you tell others about this, people will laugh their heads off~"

Mrs. Li changed the subject and continued, "Besides, you said that the eldest brother's family, he is the eldest brother, but he only thinks about his own little piece of land all day long, and never considers other people. Whenever there is something, he lets his wife rush forward, while he hides in the back, taking all the benefits. Whenever something goes wrong, he disappears."

"Although Lao Er's family seems honest on the surface, they are actually very selfish. For example, when his wife was pregnant, we didn't work hard for him and help him clean up his mess. Lao Er must have cursed us behind our backs."

"The third brother's family is even worse. They are the typical ones who forget their mother after marrying a wife. Don't you know what kind of person Tian Xiaolan is? We have been worrying about them for many years, but what about them? None of them know how to be grateful."

Seeing that the old man remained silent, she spoke slowly after a while, "We, as parents, have raised them and helped them build houses and find wives. This is already good enough. You should think more about yourself in the future. Instead of thinking about them, you might as well spare some time to plan for yourself and your daughter."

Chu Yu coughed awkwardly beside him. I was still standing by and he said this. It was really embarrassing.

Mrs. Li glanced at her with amusement, and a trace of relief flashed in her eyes, "What's the matter? What did mother say was not true? Among your brothers and sisters-in-law, which one is good? Point it out and tell me. You used to be a fool, and you were used as a gun in everything. Fortunately, you are much more normal now."

Old Man Chu thought for a long time before nodding his head and saying nothing more. Well, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Just like the old woman said, as long as they don't starve to death, it's fine. The two of them have helped those unfilial people build a house and find a wife over the years. They have done well enough, at least better than most families in the village~

Chu Yu knew that Granny Li was an insightful person who loved the original owner, but Old Man Chu was a little abnormal. Nowadays, continuing the family line is a big deal. Could this old man really give it up?

She recalled the original owner's life. In fact, Old Man Chu still valued bloodline very much in his bones. Otherwise, Bai Guihua would never take his job. He only thought that family harmony would bring prosperity, and he would endure everything and keep the family together. But in the end, except for the original owner, the other children of the Chu family lived a decent life.

What’s going on now?

Mrs. Li looked at her old daughter who looked worried, took her hand and smiled. If she loved her 80% before, now it was 100%. She really loved her old daughter no matter how she looked at her. "Okay, mother will take care of everything in front of you. She won't let you be bullied by those bastards. As for your father..."

She glared at the old man, then continued, "If he still can't figure it out, then we'll just live alone, let him go, and we'll live a good life as a family from now on."
