Wei Yanzhen took out a copy of the Yu De Jing from the house, and Deng Zhilan almost laughed when she saw it.

"You're already teaching morality before the baby is even born."

Wei Yanzhen said seriously: "The Tao Te Ching contains profound wisdom. If we start to cultivate it now, our children will become wise people in the future."

Deng Zhilan smiled and shook her head, "You are the only one who would think so. I wonder if this little guy can listen to it."

As she spoke, she gently touched her bulging belly.

Wei Yanzhen sat down, opened the Book of Virtue, cleared his throat and began to read: "What can be called a word is not a real word; what can be named is not a real name..."

As he was reciting, Wei Yanzhen suddenly felt Deng Zhilan's stomach being lightly kicked.

"Yeah, this little guy has a reaction. It seems he likes to listen."

Wei Yanzhen said with surprise.

Deng Zhilan joked: "Maybe he is protesting because you read it badly."

Wei Yanzhen continued to read, but Deng Zhilan was thoughtful. She guessed that it was probably the Song Yitao incident that caused Wei Yanzhen to feel emotional.

Song Yitao is indeed morally corrupt and has no bottom line at all. He only wants others to take the blame for whatever he does and never considers the interests of others. Such a person has no morals at all.

The summer evening breeze blew through the yard, and the couple had a harmonious atmosphere.

Writing a beautiful story of summer, the two elders of the Wei family stood behind the window, looking at their son and daughter-in-law with tenderness, and they felt relieved.

Wei Jinyue also hid behind the window and peeked in. She envied the relationship between her brother and sister-in-law very much, and felt happy to be born in such a family.

…

The busy summer farming season was finally over, and the brigade settled work points on the cement stage where they usually watched operas.

Wei Yanzhen and Deng Zhilan also came to the cement platform. There were many people gathered around, and everyone was discussing the public issue enthusiastically.

On the stage, production team leader Luo Yisen and several accountants, holding notebooks, began reading out the names and corresponding work points one by one.

While listening, Wei Yanzhen protected Deng Zhilan tightly, fearing that she would be squeezed by the crowd.

Suddenly, there was a noise from the crowd.

It turned out to be Li Zhenzhen and Sun Fangfang. They felt that their slenderness was too little, and were arguing with the cadres. Li Zhenzhen's face turned red, and she shouted at the top of her voice:

"Why is my foot so short? I've worked hard!"

The accountant frowned and explained, but Li Zhenzhen didn't listen at all. Luo Yisen stepped forward and said, "Li Zhiqing, Sun Zhiqing, everyone is watching us. We all know how much work you two have done. Don't make trouble unreasonably."

Li Zhenzhen and Sun Fangfang were furious. She also knew that they had asked for leave with Zhu Qinghan, but generally speaking, they had worked for many days and their work points were not so few that they could not get much food at all.

However, Luo Yisen's attitude became unusually tough. He did not allow them to refuse and even planned to not give them any food.

"Since you two have objections to this public settlement, then I think you won't receive any food. If you don't want to participate in the labor, you don't have to come in the future."

Li Zhenzhen and Sun Fangfang looked at each other. You know, Luo Yisen used to be the easiest to talk to, but suddenly he changed and became so unkind.

"Forget it, forget it. It doesn't matter if it's a few centimeters. We'll just give you as much food as we can. Captain Luo, thank you for your help."

Li Zhenzhen and Sun Fangfang walked down the cement platform, while Wei Yanzhen and Wei Jinyue went up to collect food. Compared with the two of them, the Wei family received much more things.
