"Mom, you're exaggerating! I'm not that great!"

Zhou Ling was a little shy after being praised by her mother, but she was really excited.

Her mother didn't praise her often from childhood to adulthood, even though she always got good grades on tests.

This is the first time she's been praised in front of outsiders like this.

Zhou Ling blushed as her mother praised her in front of so many people.

"What praise? You're naturally smart and excellent," Chen Suwen said matter-of-factly.

Zhou Ling's grades in mathematics, physics, and chemistry were particularly good. Even after graduating from high school, she did not give up learning and collected a lot of books and materials on these subjects.

“If you can go to university, you won’t just be an ordinary teacher; you can even become a university professor.”

"If you could go to university and stay there as a teacher, you might even become a professor."

Although many university professors were sent to the countryside during this era, and there were far fewer good teachers in universities, it doesn't matter.

It's been 76 years now, and the college entrance examination won't be long before it's reinstated. If her daughter can become a university professor, she'll be very proud.

"If I, Chen Suwen, had a daughter who became a university professor, it would be like my ancestors' graves were emitting auspicious smoke."

So what if Zhou Ling doesn't share the same surname as her, Chen?

Isn't she her daughter?

Zhou Ling's success is a testament to the good fortune of Chen Suwen's ancestors.

"Mom, do you really think I'm that amazing?" Zhou Ling was a little shy, but also very happy that her mother praised her, and happily hugged her mother's arm and acted coquettishly.

"You're already very talented, I wasn't exaggerating."

"hey-hey……"

Even though she's a mother of two four-year-olds, Zhou Ling is acting like a little child again, snuggling up to her mother and laughing happily.

Tan Xiaojuan didn't say anything; she felt that Chen Suwen was good at discovering other people's strengths.

She felt it was normal for her daughter to be outstanding, but she was also grateful for the excellence of her neighbor.

“Sister Chen, didn’t you want to learn the Dai and Bai languages ​​from me last time? Come on, I’ll teach you.” Tan Xiaojuan pulled Chen Suwen aside to speak.

Chen Suwen didn't know how long she would stay here, but she would definitely need to go out and socialize, so she really wanted to learn some local dialects.

The villages near where Song Che's troops were stationed were mostly inhabited by Dai and Bai people, with other ethnic minorities also present.

However, Chen Suwen still wanted to learn the Dai and Bai dialects first, and learn other dialects later if she had the opportunity. For now, she would focus on learning these two.

She wasn't particularly gifted with languages; she was afraid she wouldn't even be able to learn the Dai and Bai dialects.

...

Previously, Huang Xiufang and Tan Xiaojuan had talked about Han Huilan, while Han Huilan was also muttering about Zhou Ling.

"Tsk, why didn't they fight? A doctor and a teacher, it would be so interesting if they really fought."

The main reason is that Han Huilan hopes the two of them will fight, so that no one will watch her embarrassing moments anymore.

Even a year later, many people still talk about her fight with that woman in the performing arts troupe to her face.

It's mainly those people who can't stand her and don't like her who insist on using this to provoke her.

Her husband actually had a promotion opportunity last time, but because of the incident she caused, he failed to get the promotion.

Her husband didn't say anything to her, but when her in-laws found out, they wrote her a letter and berated her mercilessly.

Especially her mother-in-law.

Before she married her husband, her mother-in-law liked her so much and wanted her to become her daughter-in-law.

So now, that's how much her mother-in-law hates her.

Sometimes Han Huilan didn't understand either. Before she married Lin Zhenguo, her mother-in-law liked her very much and held her hand, saying that she would definitely be Lin Zhenguo's wife.

But once she actually became her daughter-in-law, she turned her back on her.

As expected, mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law cannot get along peacefully; just look at her.

It was clearly her mother-in-law who forced Lin Zhenguo to marry her, but now that she's actually become her daughter-in-law, she's being criticized in all sorts of ways.

That incident wasn't entirely her fault. If that woman hadn't provoked her, would she have fought with her?

Even though her man is already married, that woman still won't give up. She's just asserting her dominance, isn't she?

She did nothing wrong.

What are you muttering about?

When Lin Zhenguo came home from get off work, he was puzzled to see his wife sitting there muttering to herself. What was she muttering to herself for no reason?

"You're back?" Han Huilan looked up and greeted him casually. "Since you're back, go heat up the food."

Lin Zhenguo frowned slightly upon hearing this. "You didn't cook?"

"What are you making?" Han Huilan asked, annoyed. "There are still leftovers at home, why are you making anything?"

"You won't eat the leftovers? When did you start wasting food like this?" Han Huilan scolded him.

Lin Zhenguo: "Did you eat gunpowder today? You're so angry. You took it out on me as soon as I got back."

"Hmph, of course I'm furious. Look for yourself, your mother wrote me a letter scolding me."

"It's been a year, and she writes me letters every month to scold me. What does that mean?"

Lin Zhenguo walked over and looked at the letter she had slammed on the table, then picked it up and studied it carefully.

His mother definitely couldn't write, so the letter was probably dictated by his mother and written down by his younger brother.

“That’s just how Mom is, just bear with her for a bit.” Lin Zhenguo put the letter away. “Anyway, Mom lives far away from us, so you won’t hear her nagging.”
