Crossing the Nine Zeros: Becoming the Almighty Stepmother of the Three Villains

Chapter 5 English Tutors
The town is poor, but the folk customs are simple.

The children of the Shen family disappeared, and they were all as anxious as if their own children had disappeared. At night, all the members of many families mobilized and spontaneously formed search teams, and went to the surrounding fields and mountains with torches to search for them.

It was dark and dawn, and the villagers were exhausted from walking, but there was no sign of Shenliang City.

Lin Shanyue stayed up all night, more out of fear than self-blame.

Suddenly, she thought of a place.

She ran like crazy, looking for her memory and ran to the hillside.

The scorching sun almost roasted people, and the soles of their feet stepped on the ground, like squid placed on an iron plate.

However, Lin Shanyue's hopes were still in vain. The gate on the hillside was closed tightly, and there was no one around.

She returned the same way desolately, her body was exhausted.

"Lin Shanyue!!! Come back quickly, the child is back, the child is back..."

A faint call came from hundreds of meters away. "The child is back" is like an angel's call.

However, she didn't see Shen Liangcheng alive and kicking, but Shen Liangcheng lying on the bed dying.

Lin Shanyue panicked, "What... what's going on?"

"I found him in the vegetable field in the backyard of my house. It must be heatstroke."

A pleasant, faint voice came into my mind.

Lin Shanyue followed the voice and saw a handsome, tall man with bright eyes.

"Thank you, what's your name?"

"Call me Gu Ling."

Gu?There is only one family surnamed Gu in this small town, and that is the owner of that small western-style building.

"Oh, thank you for helping me get the baby back."

"Your child?" Gu Ling was taken aback.

Lin Shanyue had mixed feelings in her heart, and after some thinking, she gave a definite answer.

"I've taken him to the doctor. He's fine. He took these medicines on time. Also, the doctor said he was malnourished, and these supplements were for him."

Gu Ling was carrying a large bag of medicine and nutritional products. Lin Shanyue didn't understand the price of the medicine, but she also knew that it was expensive, far beyond what they could consume now.

"How much...how much?"

"A few hundred yuan, it's okay."

"Hundreds of dollars?" Lin Shanyue shouted, taking a deep breath. In this era, that's a huge sum of money.

"It's too expensive, I can't take it, thank you for your kindness."

Seeing this, Aunt Shen hurriedly persuaded: "Shanyue, the child's health is important, you accept it first, and pay it back later, okay?"

"Yeah, you can pay me back if you have the money."

Gu Ling didn't bother him any more, he put down the medicine and was about to leave.

"Hey, wait, what can I do for you?"

Lin Shanyue just wanted to try, maybe he could offer her a job.

Gu Ling shook his head, "You can't help."

"You tell me first."

"I'm looking for an English tutor."

Gu Ling plans to study abroad in the next year, but his oral English is a bit poor, so he hopes to have a teacher to help him improve his oral expression skills.

Lin Shanyue's eyes lit up immediately, this really stepped on her heart.

As the eldest daughter of the Lin family, she often goes abroad for vacations, and the subject of English is simply a child's lesson for her.

"I can, you pay me, and I will be your tutor."

Gu Ling obviously didn't believe that in this small town, women were almost uneducated, let alone learning foreign languages.

Lin Shanyue impresses him very quickly. She talks to him in fluent English, and her pronunciation and continuous reading are exactly the same as those on TV.

"Do you believe it now?"

Gu Ling immediately decided to hire her, "One hour a day, 20 yuan per hour, is that okay?"

"Ok, Ok……"

Lin Shanyue nodded like a rattle, and finally... she was able to use her skills to make money.

"Shanyue, what are you talking about?"

"It's a foreign language."

Lin Shanyue's heart suddenly brightened, and she felt that her future was bright.

Aunt Shen warmly greeted the villagers to leave, then closed the door and approached Lin Shanyue and said, "What foreign language? Are you really going to be a teacher in the Gu family? Are you going alone?"

"Of course I'm going alone, it's fine."

Seeing Lin Shanyue's insistence, Aunt Shen couldn't say anything, she just buried her worries in her heart.

The first thing Shen Liangcheng saw when he woke up was Lin Shanyue, his eyes were full of hatred, his nostrils were turned upside down, and he was pulled a lot.

"You have to run farther away, what's the point of hiding in the backyard of Gu's family?"

"I didn't ask you to find me." He snorted coldly.

"I didn't look for it. But if you dare to run around again, I will directly expel you from the Shen family."

"You are not qualified."

"Just see if I am qualified, get up and take medicine."

Lin Shanyue and Shen Liangcheng bickered, Yaya thought they were playing some game, covered her mouth and smiled brightly.

Lin Shanyue handed three sticks of glucose to the children and saw them drink it with her own eyes. Then she said, "Eat braised pork tonight."

"Meat?" The three children said in unison.

"Ah."

Lin Shanyue first advanced Gu Ling's salary for one week. In order to reward herself for finding a job, she wanted to treat the children to a good meal.

"Mom, eat meat, eat meat..."

Yaya patted her chubby little hands, not to mention how happy she was, the child just didn't have any troubles, and she was crying hungry just a second ago.

You will be able to smile in the next second.

"Okay, eat meat."

Lin Shanyue took the lead, and Shen Junyang did the cooking. Although there were no seasonings, this meal of white rice consisted of braised pork. For the current family of four, it was the ultimate meal.

Lin Shanyue handed over the money to Shen Junyang. When she was away, Shen Junyang was responsible for taking care of the children and younger brother's daily life, so that she could go to work without any worries.

Only Gu Ling was at home in the Gu family, and his parents were away on business trips.

Although the two had never met before, they got along without any pressure.

Gu Ling's awareness is very high, no matter what knowledge he has, Lin Shanyue can teach it easily.

The first time and the second time, the two of them were just in a purely working relationship, and they got along relatively politely. Later, they gradually became acquainted and talked about some topics other than study.

"How old are you?"

"20."

Gu Ling was even more surprised, "Three children at the age of 20?"

For the sake of the children, Lin Shanyue did not deny it.

"Where did you go to school? It feels like you have a lot of knowledge."

"University in City B."

"Huh? Are you going to university in City B?"

City B, for this closed and backward small town, can be described as a paradise on earth, which is out of reach.Even Gu Ling's family has only traveled a few times.

"Ah... I must have made a mistake, I made a mistake... It's getting late, I'm going home first."

Lin Shanyue got up and left in a hurry, in order to avoid such problems.

The journey back is nearly one kilometer, and she walks to and from get off work every day.

She stepped on the stone slab and walked forward with ease, not noticing the strange gazes of the passers-by along the way.
