Peasant girl who traveled through time: I brought an earth with me

Zhong Chuchu took in everyone's expressions and saw that no one answered her, so she continued:

"A few days ago, I happened to meet the grandson of Ge Fuzi, the dean of Luming College, at the entrance of the hospital. At that time, he was suffering from a high fever. I happened to know a few folk remedies."

"I didn't expect that after I tried it, I actually cured people."

"Guruzi thought that I had saved his grandson, so he proposed to take Dabao as his student. Tomorrow Dabao will go to the school to report."

Old Mrs. Lin smiled. Previously, the old man was still worried that this woman was selfish and would be reluctant to take care of her two children.

The old couple also discussed this matter privately, thinking that they would find a way to let Dabao go to school next year.

Unexpectedly, this woman was so lucky that she actually saved the grandson of Gefuzi. This must not have been blessed by the spirit of Lao San in heaven!

As long as she can send Dabao to school, it doesn't matter if she continues to live in the new house.

The old lady didn't even realize how low her requirements for Zhong Chuchu were now.

"Third daughter-in-law, do you really mean what you say?" Mr. Lin put out the cigarette in his hand with a solemn look on his face.

"Dad, Mr. Ge came to our home a few days ago and took a test on Dabao. He said at that time that the child was extremely smart and was good at studying."

Zhong Chuchu is not bragging, this kid Dabao can indeed bear this praise.

"Originally, I wanted to send him to the academy in the spring of next year, but Mr. Ge directly asked him to report tomorrow."

"He said that he would let Dabao study with his grandson from now on."

"Okay! That's great!" Mr. Lin slapped his thigh, "God bless you! My eldest grandson is going to be successful!"

The second child and his family sat quietly next to each other, not talking, but there was a smile on the corners of the couple's lips.

"Hmph, so what if Master Ge personally accepts the treasure? Shu Xiu doesn't have to pay a lot of money, right?" Mrs. Liu smiled scornfully.

"Third brother and sister, don't you know how much money it costs to repair this year?"

"My parents are getting older. In this family now, the only ones who can work are those in my family who have the hardest work. Even if my family wants to help you, they are unable to do anything!"

"Really? Second wife?"

Mrs. Xue didn't expect her sister-in-law to take her with her when she spoke, so she could only say: "Sister-in-law, I listen to my parents."

Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes and looked cowardly.

She made up her mind today that this third daughter-in-law would never take a penny from the old house!

Zhong Chuchu was too lazy to pay attention to her and just continued: "I'm ready for Shu Xiu. I made some money from business before, so that's enough for the time being."

"I came here today just to say hello to my parents. From now on, Dabao won't be able to go home often at the academy, so he won't be able to come over to see you two often."

"Whatever it takes, as long as he studies hard and comes back as a scholar like his father in the future, he and I will be satisfied!"

Mr. Lin smiled so heartily that his tone of voice when he spoke to her became much softer.

"Grandpa, don't worry. I will study hard in the future and strive to be the top scholar. Grandpa will ride a horse with me through the streets!"

Dabao stood up and made some bold statements.

"Hahahaha! Okay! Okay~" Mr. Lin laughed a few times and touched Dabao's head: "Grandpa is waiting for you to take me to ride a big horse!"

Mrs. Lin was so happy that she couldn't even stand upright.

Mrs. Liu snorted coldly, but she didn't say anything inappropriate.

She thought to herself, as long as you don't take money, it doesn't matter what dreams you have in life, it has nothing to do with her.

After sitting for a while, she stood up: "Then I will go back first and prepare some things for Dabao to take to the academy. The two children will stay here to stay with you two elders. I will come to pick them up later."

Old Mrs. Lin was stunned: "Why don't you sit down for a while?" She hasn't even eaten yet, so she's leaving now?
Don't you want her to take the initiative to stay for dinner?

Zhong Chuchu nodded: "No, let's go back first."

After saying that, she lifted the basket behind her.

"This is mutton. I saw someone selling it on the street a few days ago. I can't usually buy this meat, so I bought two kilograms of it. I brought it here for you all to try."

She handed the basket to Mrs. Lin, then turned and walked out of the yard, disappearing at the gate of the yard after a while.

"Mom, look quickly, is it mutton?" Ms. Liu said hurriedly.

The old lady ignored it and just took a look at the wild vegetable leaves covering the basket.

Sure enough, it was mutton. Such a big lump must have weighed more than a kilogram.

Mutton is much more expensive than pork. If you buy pork in the afternoon, it costs [-] cents per catty, but if you switch to mutton, it will cost you more.

Wouldn't it be much more cost-effective if the money spent on buying mutton was used to buy pork?

The old lady is not looking at this piece of mutton, but looking at the good deeds of Zhong Chuchu, a prodigal woman!
This delicious and lazy thing, she was just fooled by the lard, and she wanted to keep her here for dinner!

"Mom, is it mutton? I can smell it!" Mrs. Liu shrugged her nose and said.

"You have a nose like a dog, you are so clever! You are lazy and lazy all day long. What kind of wife are you? You still want to eat meat every meal!"

Old Mrs. Lin yelled angrily:
"Dabao, you said your mother is the same. She doesn't know how high the sky is after she makes a little money. She eats mutton today and drinks the northwest wind tomorrow, right?"

Liu: "..."

She just said a word and was scolded by the old lady.

Is this taking the blame for the third daughter-in-law?

"Grandma, my mother is honoring you and grandpa! How can you say that to her?"

Dabao hates to hear anyone say something bad about her mother.

"My mother bought the mutton with her own money. If we ate it at home and didn't send it to my grandparents, no one would know."

"But it's because we are a family that we think of you all the time! How sad it would be for my mother to hear what grandma said!"

Old Mrs. Lin looked a little embarrassed, being tried to reason by her grandson, but she couldn't find any words to refute.

Forget it, just think of it as celebrating Dabao entering the academy tomorrow!
"You kid, your grandma won't be happy if she says a few words to your mother!" the old lady said with a smile:
"Just think that I am getting older and have become a nag! I will make mutton soup for you now!"

Mrs. Liu only heard the word mutton soup in her ears. Her appetite had increased greatly recently and she wanted to eat meat.

Mrs. Lin said she cooked the food herself, but the most she did was help light the fire.

From the courtyard to the kitchen, I just changed places to warm up by the fire.

Xue is the one who actually cooks.

Originally, it was Liu and her who took care of cooking.

But now my sister-in-law is pregnant, and she says she can’t smell oil fumes.

So the cooking job fell to her alone.

Even my mother-in-law, who had always been taken care of, could only come and light the fire herself.
