Since Bian Yuebai left, Bian Zhaoyue has been very comfortable, and there are no more rumors about her family.
Just as things calmed down on her end, Zhou Jinghong started making trouble again.
I heard that Lu Su came back yesterday and beat up Zhou Jinghong as soon as he got back.
Thinking that the child hadn't eaten again today, Bian Zhaoyue secretly slipped him an egg.
Unexpectedly, Lu Su discovered the egg and insisted that Zhou Jinghong had stolen it.
No matter how he explained, she didn't believe him.
Later, the neighbors couldn't stand it anymore and called for help. They were worried that if the beating continued, Jinghong wouldn't be able to take it, so everyone came.
"Aren't you going to tell the truth? Whose eggs did you steal?"
Lu Su looked at Zhou Jinghong with a mixture of hatred and resentment. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't be trapped here.
Not only is she trapped here, but the man also doesn't like her.
Don't think she hasn't heard the rumors circulating outside; that's what everyone's saying.
She couldn't even keep a man with her; he hadn't been home for a long time.
They'd rather stay in the dorms than come back.
When Bian Zhaoyue arrived, she saw that it was her eggs that had caused Zhou Jinghong to be beaten. Fearing that Lu Su would continue to beat him, she stepped forward and spoke up.
"These eggs are for Jinghong."
Upon hearing Bian Zhaoyue say that she gave it to Zhou Jinghong, Lu Su stopped hitting him.
However, everyone was frightened by Zhou Jinghong's appearance, and their gazes towards Lu Su changed for a moment.
Who beats their own son like that? Zhou Jinghong's clothes were covered in patches.
In contrast, Lu Su was wearing a set of clothes made of silk.
Moreover, she herself eats meat at every meal, while her family only eats refined grains.
It's simply unacceptable that Zhou Jinghong was beaten like this over an egg.
“Lu Su is really selfish. If she hadn’t refused to feed the child, Sister Bian wouldn’t have had to give him eggs.”
"You wouldn't believe it, I heard she doesn't even allow her children to eat at the table."
The child always squats down to eat beside me.
"Moreover, she herself eats meat, while Jinghong eats only coarse grains."
She said it was to cultivate a spirit of perseverance in her children from a young age, but I think it's purely intentional.
A series of reproachful voices came from behind, and Lu Su's expression turned sour. Seeing the bruises on the child's arm, Bian Zhaoyue spoke up.
“Lu Meizi, now that everything has been explained, Jinghong isn’t a bad kid, so please don’t hit him anymore.”
Lu Su felt that Bian Zhaoyue was just meddling in other people's business. If it weren't for the eggs she gave her today, she wouldn't have made such a fuss. She grabbed Zhou Jinghong.
"You don't need to feed him eggs anymore. I will raise my own son myself."
After saying that, Lu Su stormed home. No one had ever seen anyone like her before.
Completely unreasonable and selfish, Bian Zhaoyue got angry and decided to ignore it from now on.
If it weren't for the child Jinghong, she wouldn't have said a single word to Lusu.
Because of this incident, the people in the family compound are no longer willing to talk to Lu Su.
Knowing that Ye Zhaozhao was taking a break that day, Bian Zhaoyue and Lu Shiyun came to find her.
They were going to the village to exchange some mung beans and asked her if she wanted to go. Ye Zhaozhao had just made a sugar-coated tomato for the children.
It tastes sweet and sour, and the kids love it. Tell them to do their homework after they finish eating, because even during summer vacation, they can't fall behind on their homework.
"Okay, let's go together."
The three women arrived in the village and found that none of the shops where they usually traded their goods were there.
I asked around and found out that doctors from the military region's health clinic had come to the village to provide free medical services.
Everyone went, and the three of them arrived at the village entrance, where they saw Li Hongmei and another person distributing medicine. Everyone wanted the free medicine.
After receiving the medicine, they learned that the three women had come to exchange something.
The aunt went home and got the medicine for them. Looking at the medicine in her hand, Ye Zhaozhao asked.
"Auntie, what is this medicine for?"
"I work all year round and have a problem with wrist pain. I didn't expect the doctors in this military region to be so good. They don't charge me for medicine."
The woman looked very happy as she spoke, as if she had gotten a great deal.
Seeing the bright red contents in the basket, Lu Shiyun asked.
"Auntie, what's this?"
"These are raspberries, and they're ripe right now. There are plenty of them on the mountain."
It looked so delicious that Lu Shiyun asked if she could trade some with the aunt, who of course agreed.
They were all tired of eating raspberries, so the three of them got some of those to take home for the children.

After graduation, everyone was basically assigned jobs, and Ye Zhaozhao came to the school to pack her things.
When he met Wen Qiaoling, he asked her where she had been assigned.
"Zhaozhao, I want to go to the countryside to teach."
This was something Wen Qiaoling had thought about many times; she wanted to see the smiles on the children's faces.
She wants more children to have a better future.
"Have you thought it through? Have you discussed it with your family?"
Wen Qiaoling nodded; she had discussed this decision with her family beforehand.
Her partner was very supportive, and Ye Zhaozhao didn't say anything more once she saw that she had made up her mind.
However, her home is in Kyoto, and after moving to the countryside, she saw her family less and less.
Knowing what Ye Zhaozhao was thinking, Wen Qiaoling spoke up.
"I'll come back when I have a holiday, and my wife will bring the kids to visit me."
"Okay, when are you leaving?"
Ye Zhaozhao thought that once she went to the countryside, she probably wouldn't see Wen Qiaoling for a long time, so Wen Qiaoling gave her a hug first.
"Next month."
"I'm treating you to dinner at a state-run restaurant today."
