After all, Shi Haiyan also has a yardstick in her heart, but she has never thought about controlling it, because she is always extremely optimistic at critical moments and has very beautiful thoughts.

Just as she thought it would be wonderful to snatch the wild vegetable and egg soup from her youngest son, and just as she took out a dollar with a painful heart, she began to think: It's okay, she can coax the little guy to return the money to her later, at most she can just spend a penny to buy a candy.

"Zhao girl, take this. Take Weiguo to buy a pound of sugar and a pound of salt in the afternoon." As soon as the money was taken out, Xie Ailian grabbed it and threw it to Wang Zhaozhao.

ah?

Wang Zhaozhao was dumbfounded, and Shi Haiyan was even dumber.

"Mom, aren't you just buying one candy for Weiguo? Why did you buy a whole pound? And why did you buy salt..."

"You're making it so that everyone can't even eat the best food. If you buy a pound of candy, several children will each eat one. The same goes for salt."

"This..." I don't accept it!

Shi Haiyan was furious, puffing up her cheeks and trying to tug at Wang Sanbing, but Wang Sanbing impatiently pushed her away. "Mothers save food from their own mouths to feed their children, but you're the one snatching food from your child's mouth. You paid a dollar to get a lesson, you deserve it!"

“…”

Shi Haiyan was so angry that she wanted to foam at the mouth. Does this damn man know what he is talking about? The old lady is in charge of the family. She is so stingy that she can't save two yuan for personal use in a year.

At this moment, she heard Wang Zhaozhao ask the old lady, "Grandma, I bought some salt and sugar, but I have some left. Can I buy a notebook and a pencil?"

"What are you buying? Can you read? You're buying notebooks and pencils. What are you dreaming of?" Shi Haiyan screamed in a shrill voice.

Xie Ailian, who was about to confront Wang Zhaozhao, changed her mind immediately after seeing her like that. "It's just one dollar anyway. I bought some sugar and salt. You can buy whatever else you like."

"Thank you, grandma." Wang Zhaozhao thanked with a smile.

"Mom...!" Shi Haiyan stood up suddenly, but was pulled down again by Wang Sanbing.

"You've taken out one dollar. Mom will decide how to use it. Why are you still making such a fuss?" Wang Sanbing was definitely helping Shi Haiyan this time.

He wanted to get over the matter quickly, lest the stupid woman continue to anger his mother. If she really had to send him back to the old Shi family for education, it would not end well.

Shi Haiyan stared at Wang Sanbing with wide eyes, then burst into tears...

"Bang!"

Suddenly, Wang Dahai, who was always quiet, slapped the table.

"chest……"

Shi Haiyan was frightened back with a dry howl, her face flushed red.

Wang Dahai threw down his bowl and chopsticks, "Stop eating! Third brother, take your wife to work. From now on, you two won't have a break. You'll earn twelve work points a day, and the work will be counted after fifteen days!"

After saying that, he walked away with his hands behind his back.

The head of the family usually just works to earn work points and doesn't bother with these trivial matters. When he suddenly gets angry, it's scary.

The whole family left the table quickly. It was indeed a difficult meal, but except for Shi Haiyan... oh, and Wang Weiguo, whose soup was snatched away by her, everyone else had their fill and enjoyed their meal.

No matter how noisy you are, you can’t delay your meal.

"Weiguo, let's go. I'll take you to the supply and marketing cooperative."

"good."

Wang Weiguo responded obediently, took the initiative to hold Wang Zhaozhao's hand, and followed her.

"Sister Zhao, I'm going too." Wang Baojia followed eagerly.

"I...and me, second sister, I...can I go?" Wang Jingjing wanted to go, but didn't dare to speak. Zhang Xiu'e pushed her from behind, and she spoke with a nervous look on her face.

Wang Zhaozhao glanced back and said to his brother Wang Xingwen, "Big brother, second brother, you should go too."

After saying that, she continued to walk out with Wang Weiguo.

Wang Xingwu chuckled and followed, picking up Wang Jingjing along with him.

Wang Xingwen picked up Wang Qingqing and casually called out to the daughter Zhang Xiu'e had brought with her, "Shanhua, let's go."

"I...you guys go, I, I'm a little tired and plan to take a nap." Liu Shanhua seemed to have not expected Wang Xingwen to call her, and looked a little flattered.

"Oh, okay."

“…”

Liu Shanhua raised her eyes and saw that Wang Xingwen had already stepped out of the door. She subconsciously glanced at Zhang Xiu'e, then lowered her eyes silently.

So angry!

Is Wang Xingwen sick? He's already called her, will he die if he tries to persuade her again?

However, she blamed Zhang Xiu'e even more. She even pushed Wang Jingjing, but why didn't she think of her plight as a burden and a woman from another family, and didn't try to build a bridge for her?!

Zhang Xiu'e had no idea that her eldest daughter was upset with her for not being able to go with her to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy candy. She was gloating over her misfortune. "Third sister-in-law, I think you could ask my eldest brother and his wife for advice on how to earn twelve work points a day. They have the most say in the village."

"Let's go. We can't rest for half an hour." Wang Erbing pulled her away. Fearing that she would make a scene, he muttered softly, "Aren't you afraid that she'll start a fight with you? If Dad gets angry, we'll be blamed too..."

"Ah, yes, yes, yes." Zhang Xiu'e listened to advice more than ever before.

"Are you happy now?" Wang Sanbing asked Shi Haiyan casually. He didn't blame Shi Haiyan for getting him into trouble. He just didn't want Shi Haiyan to make trouble and disrupt the family all the time.

“…”

Shi Haiyan was so miserable that she wanted to cry but had no tears. During this period of time, she had already compared the two options: earning twelve work points for fifteen consecutive days or being sent back to her parents' home and embarrassing her parents and brothers. She wondered which would be worse.

…

To be honest, Wang Zhaozhao regretted it before he even reached the village entrance.

Although it is just the beginning of summer, the sun is already very scorching at noon. But it is impossible to turn back. I can buy notebooks and pencils with the extra money.

She just asked casually on a whim, and she didn't expect her grandmother to agree. Well, her third aunt had made an "indispensable contribution", she knew that.

In fact, she didn't hate Shi Haiyan that much.

"Zhao Zhao, why do you want to buy a notebook and a pen?" Wang Xingwen suddenly asked her.

Wang Zhaozhao was stunned for a moment, then heard Wang Xingwen ask again, "Do you want to study?"

"Ah?" It was so sudden that Wang Zhaozhao could hardly keep up. A sudden thought flashed through his mind: She must look silly.

"After the literacy class started in the village, I saw you always going outside, and sometimes you would use branches to write and draw on the ground." Wang Xingwen continued.

Wang Zhaozhao smiled softly, "I really want to study."

But, how is that possible?

"Ah? What's the good of studying? I would rather herd cattle and do farm work." Wang Xingwu interrupted with a look of rejection. He liked herding cattle, and he was willing to do it even if cutting thatch would hurt his hands.

Moreover, you can earn work points.

"Sister Zhao, do you want to be a city dweller?" Wang Baojia also came to chime in. "But it would be great if you could be a city dweller, so we can enjoy the good life together in the future."

Wang Zhaozhao's mouth twitched. He was indeed her third aunt's son! As soon as he opened his mouth, he could smell the unique flavor of Shi Haiyan brand.
