After a simple rebirth

On Sunday morning, I was not woken up by the alarm clock or by Fu's mother, but by Fu's second aunt who came over and woke me up.

"Fu Ying, your mother and I are going to visit someone in Zhangjiagou. Do you want to come with us?"

Fu Ying sat up and sobered up a bit, "Zhangjiagou? Over there at the reservoir?"

"Yes, if someone catches fish in the reservoir, can they buy two and eat them?"

Fu Ying shook her head. "I won't go. I have to read today and the teacher will teach a new lesson next week."

Fu Ying didn't want to go. She had some impression of Zhangjiagou. It was really far away. There was nothing close to the reservoir. It was not a festival, and there were not many people with cars. She could only walk, which took at least an hour. She would die if she went there for two hours.

Moreover, the Fu family has no relatives there, only the second aunt of Fu has relatives there. Because the second aunt of Fu's daughter-in-law, that is, Fu Ying's cousin's wife, is from Renjiazhai next to Zhangjiagou, the second aunt of Fu will go there more often. It doesn't seem to be a big deal for Fu's mother to go there, maybe she just went there to stroll around out of boredom.

Seeing that she didn't want to go, Aunt Fu said something else, "If you don't go, please help me take care of Wang Cong and the others. You have nothing to do at home. Your uncle will make lunch. You can go and eat together after it's ready."

You want someone to take care of the child for a day just for a meal? What a good plan!

Her husband used to be a railway worker, and as a government employee he could only have one child, so she only gave birth to one child, Fu Ying's cousin.

But Fu Ying's cousin has four children. The eldest, Wang Cong, is two years younger than Fu Zhe, and the third and fourth children are only 5 or 6 years old. At this age, they are running around wildly. How could Fu Ying have the heart to take care of the children for her?

Think about it again, when her eldest grandson was a little injured, she would blame Fu Ying and Fu Zhe for not taking good care of him. Now, only a fool would let her take care of her child. Her child is precious, while other people's children are just weeds!

"Since Second Uncle is at home, why isn't he taking Wang Cong and the others with him?"

"Your second uncle is such a jerk. He only knows how to watch TV all day long. If they don't obey, he will just beat them. How can you watch them? Your second uncle doesn't care where they go to play."

"Then I can't watch it either. They can be obedient when they are with my second uncle, but I need to study and read. They can't stay in the room so well. How can I follow them when they run away to play? I follow them with a book in my hand. How can I do my homework?"

Fu Ying looked at Fu Ergu. She didn't believe that Fu Ergu would dare to tell her to stop doing her homework and take care of her grandson first.

"Then I'll let the eldest and second child come over, and you can help them study and teach them to do their homework. If they don't obey, you can scold them. As for the third and fourth child, I'll let your second uncle take them to watch TV."

Fu Ying was speechless, as if she was being blamed.

"They don't have much homework in elementary school. If you were me teaching them, I would just let them copy books. If they cry and don't want to learn, I would let them go home by themselves. Anyway, I will take care of them in this house. If they go out, I don't care where they go. They play everywhere every day and are more familiar with the place than I am. If I don't look for them, I won't go to your house for lunch."

Seeing that Fu Ying was willing to take care of the matter but unwilling to keep an eye on it, Second Aunt Fu did not ask Fu Ying for anything more. She told Mother Fu to get up quickly and prepared to bring her eldest grandson and granddaughter over.

Mother Fu got up to wash and brush her teeth, and Fu Ying also got up to put on her clothes.

"I don't know how long your second aunt and I will be gone, and we may not be back for dinner tonight. You can cook for yourselves. I'll leave some money for you. If you need to buy something urgent, just buy it. Spend it frugally. The rest can be used for breakfast next week, and I won't give you the rest next week." He handed Fu Ying $20.

Fu Ying took the money and thought it was good. It didn’t matter if she didn’t give her money for breakfast next week. She would definitely save the 20 yuan and try to save some.

Second Aunt Fu came with her eldest grandson Wang Cong and her second and only granddaughter.

"Xiao Cong, Xiao Yu, your second aunt is studying, you should follow her and be obedient. If you study hard, I will reward you when I come back."

Yes, the grandson of Second Aunt Fu calls Second Aunt Fu Ying, the eldest aunt is Fu Yu, and the youngest uncle is Fu Zhe. In rural areas, the names of generations come and go like this, which makes people confused.

"I understand, grandma." The two people answered and looked at Fu Ying.

"Have you brought your books? If you have, I will give you homework."

At the beginning of the school year, their teachers basically don't assign homework, so Fu Ying has to find something for them to do.

They brought Chinese and math books with them. Fu Ying looked through the contents of their textbooks. Fu's mother and second aunt said goodbye to Fu Ying and said they were off.

Fu Ying suddenly remembered that she hadn’t had breakfast. She didn’t know whether Second Aunt Fu had eaten or not. Fu Ying and Fu Ma definitely hadn’t eaten. Did they bring something to eat on the way?

"Wang Cong, have you had breakfast?"

"Not yet. We just woke up not long ago and grandma brought us here."

There's no need to look at Fu Yingshu anymore. What the hell, he said his family provided lunch, but in the end he also had to give up breakfast for one person.

"Wang Cong, go wake up your uncle and ask him to make breakfast."

"Okay," Wang Cong was even happier when talking about playing with his uncle. He ran over and patted Fu Zhe's face, "Uncle, uncle, get up. Second aunt asked you to get up and cook breakfast."

Fu Zhe got up and walked over with a look of resentment, "Why do you want me to cook breakfast? How would I know what to cook!"

"I can come over. I'll make breakfast and you can watch over these two. How about that?"

Fu Zhe's resentment disappeared after seeing the two of them. "Then I'll go cook the noodles. You watch over them."

Fu Ying watched him run away speechlessly. In fact, they were not that young. One was two years younger than Fu Zhe, and the other was three years younger. They were already fifth graders.

Are they all fifth graders or just one fifth grader?

That must be the fifth grade. Wang Cong didn't like studying since she was young. In the first grade of elementary school, which was the year when Fu Ying ate at her house, she was asked to repeat the grade and was placed in the same class with her sister Wang Yu. In fact, she was required to repeat the grade again, but Fu Ergu didn't want to, so she went to the teacher to communicate and was forced to continue studying with the class.

Now, because Fu Ying and Fu Zhe are older, and no one in the Fu family has given them a cold shoulder because of the conflicts of the previous generation, they are quite happy to come and play. Fu Ying is a little more mature, and now when she talks about studying, her aura makes them respect her even more, and it seems like an adult is taking care of a child.

Fu Ying asked Wang Cong directly, "Do you want to copy the homework first, or go help your uncle?"

"I'll go get the bowl for my uncle. I'll come over and call you to eat." When Wang Cong heard Fu Ying ask this, he ran away quickly.

Fu Ying let him go first, it would be good for him to harm Fu Zhe.

Then he asked Wang Yu, "How many points did you get in Chinese and math last semester?"

Although she hated being asked about her grades and ranking when she was little, Fu Ying didn't mean to hurt her by asking about her grades. Fu Ying knew that Wang Yu's grades were not very good, but she had no idea. 20 points was not very good, and 50 points was not very good either, but the difference was huge.

How do you know it's not good? Because Wang Yu's life in his previous life was quite dramatic, the kind that can last a long time.
