Chapter 237

Raising the dog didn't take much of Lin Zhao's time, and didn't waste food; Seeing Da Huang could do many chores, very worry-free, making Gu Fu and Mother Gu sigh every time that a hero dog is truly extraordinary.

"Woof..." Seeing Da Huang responded at the door, as if agreeing with Lin Zhao's words.

"Ai!" Yubao remembered every word of Mother's, burrowed into the warm quilt, and watched Mother leave.

There were no adults at home, children being at home alone inevitably felt afraid, especially since this wasn't the Harvest Brigade, where neighbors were people they had known for a long time; here... a little movement from next door could make the children birds startled by the mere twang of a bow.

Fortunately, Seeing Da Huang was there; the little master in the room was a bit uneasy, it would reach out and pat the door twice, as if saying I'm here, then Xiao Xiao Hu Po's woofing sound would follow, the sound tender, but making one feel very at ease.

Because the dogs were there, Yubao wasn't that afraid.

Half a month passed, and now after Lin Zhao went to work, he could also sleep very soundly.

In the courtyard.

"Seeing Da Huang, come close the door." Lin Zhao wrapped her scarf tightly and ordered Seeing Da Huang.

"Woof..."

Seeing Da Huang woofed, and after the mistress went out, its body stood up and fiddled with the door latch.

Lin Zhao pushed from the outside, it didn't move, it was indeed closed, she praised: "Seeing Da Huang is great, reward you with meat bones in the afternoon."

"Woof!"

Getting a crisp echo, Lin Zhao left quickly.

The whistling wind blew.

The familiar footsteps went far away, Seeing Da Huang turned around and lay down to guard the door of the little master's room.

"Seeing Da Huang?" Yubao exposed his little head from the quilt, facing the door, and called out to the outside.

"Pa... pa!"

Seeing Da Huang sat up, stretched out its front paws, and patted the door.

Yubao curved his eyes and smiled, "Seeing Da Huang come in quickly."

Hearing the little master's summons, Seeing Da Huang used some force with its front paws, and the door creaked open.

It stepped in, half its body appeared in the room, looking at Yubao who was awake on the bed.

"It's cold outside, you and Xiao Xiao Hu Po stay in the room."

Xiao Xiao Hu Po was already lying in the room, hearing its name, it stood up, rushed to the bedside, and circled around, trying to see Yubao.

Unfortunately, the bed was higher than it.

Little Xiao Xiao Hu Po was smart, stepped back a few steps, lifted its front paws, stood up, and finally met Yubao's eyes.

It woofed twice.

"Woof... woof..."

The sound wasn't loud, as if it were whimpering.

Too loud, its mother would hit it.

The door was open, and the wind outside poured in.

Yubao urged, "Seeing Da Huang close the door, close the door quickly, there's wind."

Seeing Da Huang could understand human speech, closed the door immediately, and after closing it well, lay down at the door to guard, like a loyal soldier.

Yubao laughed, rubbed his head against the pillow, closed his eyes in peace, and fell asleep before long.

Until a little past ten, someone pinched his nose.

He felt he couldn't breathe, only then opened his eyes.

His Chun Ya had just given birth to a grandson, she needed to be nourished.

Yubao sat up, took the sweater and put it over his head, reached out to rub his eyes, and asked Yaobao: "What do you want to do? Hungry, or want to pee?"

"Drink milk." Yaobao made a request.

"Wait, I'll go make it." Yubao put on his clothes smoothly, slid off the bed, and when his legs landed, he habitually tidied up the quilt.

Before going out, he instructed Hengbao: "Hengbao, you help Seeing Qian Bao and Yaobao put on clothes, must wear hats before going out, there's wind outside, be careful of catching a cold."

"Mm, I know." Hengbao said.

He was helping Seeing Qian Bao put them on.

Seeing Qian Bao could take care of himself, but he was too young, his arms were short and he didn't have much strength, putting on summer clothes was fine, but putting on winter cotton clothes was too difficult for a child!

Hengbao put them on his younger brother in two or three strokes.

"... Thank you, Second Brother." Seeing Qian Bao thanked politely.

"No need to thank, I'm your brother." Hengbao said, then turned to help his younger sister put them on.

Yaobao was young, had many requirements, she had to choose what to wear herself. Her brother opened the wardrobe, the little girl pointed her finger at the red cotton jacket, her voice crisp: "This one!"

"... Fine." Hengbao didn't express an opinion, listening to her was right.

Like a tool person, he helped his younger sister put on clothes, then put on cotton shoes.

Found a comb, combed his younger sister's hair smooth, and with clumsy hands and feet, braided a messy braid.

"Done. Go to the kitchen to brush teeth and wash face, apply cream before drinking milk."

Because he had to take care of his younger brother and sister, the carefree Hengbao became much more patient.

Seeing Qian Bao brought the wool hat, gave his younger sister hers, then put on his own, reminding Hengbao: "Didn't wear a hat."

Hengbao patted his head, "Forgot."

Took his own hat and put it on.

"Let's go."

The four cubs were self-reliant at home, while Lin Zhao was busy at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative, her feet not touching the ground.

Approaching the New Year, more people came to the county to purchase things. The Supply and Marketing Cooperative delayed closing every day by more than half an hour.

Many things were snatched up before they even hit the shelves.

Not worrying about selling at all.

There were also imperfect items, all divided up internally by the Supply and Marketing Cooperative.

Even if they didn't want them themselves, their family members needed them, so no one complained about having too many.

After this day ended, Lin Zhao got another net bag of supplies.

She stretched, her shoulders creaking.

"Still used to it?" Li Fen asked with a smile.

"Still okay." Lin Zhao replied, this intensity for her didn't count as anything.

"As long as you're used to it, it's only busy during this time before the New Year, it'll be fine after a while." Li Fen was afraid Lin Zhao wouldn't adapt, so she offered comfort.

"Mm."

Li Fen said: "Time is about right, you go back first, I'll handle the rest, Seeing Qian Bao and Yaobao are still young, be careful they make a fuss."

Lin Zhao said thank you, tidied up slightly, and then left carrying the imperfect items.

Not long after arriving home, Gu Qingzhou came.

"Third Sister-in-law, Mother asked me to bring food, and by the way, see how you are."

Lin Zhao welcomed Gu Qingzhou into the house and said with a smile: "You came just in time, the vegetables at home are indeed not many."

This was of course polite words.

The storage ring was full of fresh vegetables, just not easy to take out.

The twins were clever and not easy to fool, Lin Zhao had to consider what could be taken out and what couldn't.

The basket of mushrooms brought by Gu Qingzhou was extremely eye-catching, Lin Zhao touched it and said in surprise: "So many, all mushrooms?"

"Yes, saved quite a lot, Father said to send them all to you, Father also said our family's mushrooms don't have to be sold, let Yubao and Hengbao eat them first."

This was his father's original words.

He didn't add a single word.

Yubao brought red sugar water, gave it to his little uncle, squatted down to look at the mushrooms, "Grandpa's mushrooms are so big! Mother, I want to eat, make them in the afternoon, can I?"

Lin Zhao: "Good."

After answering Yubao, she looked at Gu Qingzhou, "How are the brigade's mushrooms growing?"

Gu Qingzhou had been helping Gu Fu plant mushrooms after school vacation, so he knew the brigade's mushroom planting situation.

He said: "Very good."

"The ones our family planted before have been harvested, the newly planted ones... can also harvest the first batch in these few days."

Lin Zhao was surprised, "So fast. Did Father say what the captain plans to do?"

Gu Qingzhou said straightforwardly: "Ask for your help."

"I know." Gu Fu had greeted her in advance, Lin Zhao had a count in her heart, she asked: "Any plans? For example, who will unify the purchase, and send them over when the time comes?"

Gu Qingzhou drank a mouthful of red sugar water, his whole body warming up.

"Brother Dahai is responsible for collecting, Brother Eldest and Brother Second send them."

Lin Zhao nodded, "I've already told the director, when the time comes, go directly to the Supply and Marketing Cooperative to find the purchaser, the purchaser will collect them directly."

She was a Supply and Marketing Cooperative employee, so she had to avoid suspicion.

Liu Chunhong's lesson was there, it was best not to touch what shouldn't be touched, if one was reported, it would be a mess, and it would be a stain.

Gu Qingzhou responded: "Good, I'll go back and tell Father."

Lin Zhao had long divided the imperfect items she bought into two portions, and gave one to him, "This is the imperfect items from the Supply and Marketing Cooperative, take them back, let Mother handle them."

"Mm." Gu Qingzhou didn't talk nonsense and took them directly.

In any case, his mother wouldn't let Third Sister-in-law suffer a loss.

Once he left, Lin Zhao divided half the mushrooms and took the four cubs to Uncle's house for a meal.

Arriving.

The Song family was all at home, there was sound in the house, Aunt Song's voice was loud, as if she was scolding someone.

Lin Zhao's expression was confused.

It was almost New Year, according to Uncle and Aunt's temperament, they wouldn't scold people.

Yubao stepped forward to knock on the door.

"Uncle, Aunt." He called obediently.

Aunt Song in the house was stunned when she heard the sound, stopped scolding, took a deep breath, glared fiercely at her troublesome eldest son, and walked over to open the door.

Seeing Lin Zhao and the four cubs, a smile appeared on her angry face.

"Zhaozhao is here, and brought the four cubs, come in quickly, in this cold weather."

She pulled Lin Zhao into the house to sit down, and ordered Song Yunjin, "Pour red sugar water for your sister and the four cubs, let them warm up."

While speaking, she stuffed a hot water bottle for warming hands to Lin Zhao.

"Zhaozhao, the water was just poured, don't let the four cubs touch it, be careful of scalding the children." She reminded.

Lin Zhao nodded.

Glancing at the dejected Yuncheng, ignoring his pitiful look for help, she held Aunt Song's arm, "Aunt, did Yuncheng make you angry?"

Aunt Song's anger passed, and she was too lazy to care about Song Yuncheng's affairs.

"Don't care about him, he loves letting people splash dirty water on him, he doesn't care himself, why should we care so much."

She really regretted it, regretted not giving her son a few more brains.

A grown man having rumors spread about him by a girl, and spread so widely!

Fortunately, she knew early, handling it this morning could still save it, otherwise she would have called her sister-in-law and fought all the way to the Qiao family.

Why, that family is simply rotten to the core!!

Song Yuncheng couldn't help but retort, "Mother, I already said, I didn't know before, if I knew... I definitely wouldn't have let Qiao Lu splash dirty water on me, I'm not stupid, you wait, I'll let her know tomorrow, what the end will be if she offends someone who shouldn't be offended."

These words were a bit middle-school-syndrome, Lin Zhao couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth.

"What happened to Comrade Qiao, aren't you separated? Why are you involved again?!" She asked.

Song Yuncheng felt wronged, "Sister, we are separated, we separated the time you came. I didn't do anything one way on the surface and another behind the back."

First washing away his grievances, a look of grievance appeared on his face.

"But I didn't expect Qiao Lu to pit me, she secretly ruined my reputation, causing me to be scolded by my mother."

Lin Zhao was curious, "How did she ruin it? She ruined you, wouldn't it affect herself?"

Any romantic affair, the impact on men is minimal, but the impact on female comrades is greater, right.

"She said I'm irresponsible, listen to my parents for everything, am a coward, she also said I don't respect female comrades, whoever marries me will suffer..." Song Yuncheng felt he was wronged to death.

He really regretted dating!

How good it is to engage in a career.

Getting promoted and a raise early, he could also buy snow cream for his sister, buy a new coat...

Lin Zhao's eyes were sympathetic, "You are quite unlucky."

In the final analysis, it was also caused by having bad eyes, but we don't hold the victim responsible, so we can't blame Yuncheng.

Song Yuncheng asked his sister for help, "Sister, what should I do? Think of a way for me."

He wasn't even twenty, hadn't encountered many strange things, and the first object he dated used black methods to deal with him, Song Yuncheng really didn't know what to do.

Yubao remembered the problem he discussed with Mother before, raised his little hand, his eyes shining as he offered an idea, "Use force against force, eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, Uncle, which one do you think is useful? If it really doesn't work, try them all."

Hengbao touched his fleshy chin, "Still eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, how she treats you, you treat her."

He pulled Song Yuncheng's cotton jacket hem and nodded at him, "Uncle, listen to me, it won't be wrong."

Lin Zhao's expression was appreciative.

Clever.

Although a bit ruthless, the one who provokes first is cheap, to deal with evil people, you have to be like this.

"Reputation matters can be big or small, Yuncheng you must pay attention, don't let Uncle and Aunt worry for you." Lin Zhao said indifferently.

"If it really doesn't work, listen to Hengbao. Don't feel that if you ignore everything, this matter will pass, that Comrade Qiao is clearly coming with bad intentions, if you don't act, you'll have times to suffer."

Not only will female comrades be rumored about, male comrades will too, she has seen it, that person was from the Dongfeng Brigade, a perfectly good young man, just talked a bit less, was rumored about all sorts of things, his peers' children could already buy soy sauce, and he only then married a wife.

Song Yuncheng's expression was serious, "I know, I will handle it."

Seeing his sister was dissatisfied with him, he explained a few sentences for himself, "It's the end of the year, I've been working overtime, I didn't know anything, if I had heard earlier that she was spreading rumors blindly, I would have gone to find her long ago."

Why spread bad things about him!

He finally managed to reverse his family's impression of him, and it was ruined again.

Song Yuncheng became angrier the more he thought about it, wishing he could rush to the Qiao family and scold them like a shrew.

Lin Zhao saw her cousin was really wronged and comforted him a few sentences.

"Which good person would be like this when dating, you are indeed quite wronged."

She changed the subject, "But you are right to work wholeheartedly. First get regularized, regularization is the first important thing."

Song Yuncheng got his sister's praise, and his whole person was invigorated.

"Sister, I have no interest in dating now, I only want to get promoted and a raise."

Lin Zhao's eyes were encouraging, "You can do it."

Someone not even twenty, what to date, first engage in a career, once the career is smooth, everything that should come will come!

Song Yuncheng was full of motivation, and turned around immediately, "I'm going to read!"

"Go, I brought quite a few mushrooms, eat more later." Lin Zhao smiled.

Song Yuncheng felt his sister was really good, unlike his mother, who had no patience for him at all, he hadn't explained a word yet, and was scolded first.

Sigh.

It wasn't that his temperament was good, he just didn't know how to maintain this precarious mother-son relationship.

Song Yuncheng rushed into the room to read.

Song Yunjin asked: "Sister, have the mushrooms planted by your brigade started to grow?"

"Mm."

Hengbao's tone was showy, "The mushrooms in this basket were all planted by my grandpa!"

Yaobao opened her arms, gesturing a big circle, "Big, big!"

Song Yunjin was charmed, the smile at the corners of his mouth like a spring breeze, "Do Seeing Qian Bao and Yaobao like eating mushrooms?"

"Mm." Seeing Qian Bao spat out one word coolly.

Yaobao bloomed a sweet smile, "Like～～"

Aunt Song's eyes were doting, "Wait, I'll use mushrooms to make you a fresh food, I guarantee you'll like it."

Aunt Song coaxed the twins, and Uncle Song asked Lin Zhao: "Your parents plan to go to Haicheng after the New Year, do you know about this?"

Lin Zhao really didn't know, "When did they say that?"
