Chapter 193 The Stubborn Child

A large area of ​​the rice porridge was dirty.

Zhou Erwa next to him burst into tears, but he still wanted to drink more rice porridge.

Zhou Xiaowa didn't understand what was going on, but he knew that the food in the pot seemed inedible. Seeing his second brother crying, he started crying too.

At once, both brothers burst into tears.

Zhou Dawa didn’t know who to comfort, but as the eldest brother, he couldn’t cry with them.

He could only use a shovel to scrape off the ash bit by bit. In his opinion, as long as it was edible, it was no big deal. Sweet potatoes and potatoes could be roasted under the stove and eaten with black ash on them, so the ash should be fine too.

Su Jinxia saw this scene when she entered the house, "Don't eat it, it's still like this, make another pot."

"No, that would be such a waste. This is all good rice. I used my food stamps to exchange it with the aunt next door for rice from her hometown. It smelled so good when it was just out of the pot. I thought my mother would praise me, but she thought it was a waste." Zhou Dawa said as he moved quickly to skim off the top layer of dirt.

"Then add a little more water, so that it can be skimmed cleanly." Su Jinxia knew that she couldn't persuade him. There was a kind of stubbornness in the boy's eyes, a very strong one.

There are some things she can control, but there are some things she cannot control, so as not to hurt their fragile self-esteem.

Zhou Dawa thought it made sense, so he added some more water to the pot, and then he skimmed off the stuff on top.

"Okay, you can eat now!"

Su Jinxia patted the child's head and said, "Take good care of your brother."

"Sister, thank you for helping us!" Looking at the porridge in the pot, he wanted to treat his sister to a bowl if it hadn't been dirty.

Now I have no choice but to give up, and my hatred for my mother has increased even more.

It is shameful to waste food, especially cooked food, which is simply intolerable in his eyes!

Su Jinxia guessed that Wu Guixiang would not come back early, so she went back to the room. When she came out, she had a few apples in her hands.

I went to the next door and stuffed the apple into Zhou Dawa's arms.

"For you to eat."

"Thank you, sister!" Zhou Dawa was so moved that his tears grew so big. Apart from grandma, the one who cared about them the most was the sister in front of him.

"Silly child, you should call me auntie, but I'm not married yet, so you can call me sister." Su Jinxia said with a smile, "Okay, I have to go back to eat and take good care of my brother."

"Yes!" Zhou Dawa nodded firmly in agreement.

Su Jinxia turned around and left and returned to her room. She looked at her watch and it was just past 6 o'clock.

Zhao Yueneng will bring breakfast over later, and then take a bus to find Li Haixia. That little girl is so interesting, and she has given me so much emotional value.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard footsteps.

Zhao Yue came in with a lunch box and a small table in his right hand.

"I borrowed it from someone temporarily for a few days. It would be a shame to have no table in the house for dining."

"You are amazing to be able to borrow this table."

"There is a big table in their room, and the small table is idle, so I just happened to use it."

I put the table in the middle of the kang and wiped it with a rag. It was clean and looked like it was in good condition.

I put the lunch box on the table and opened it to see the fried egg.

"Didn't they say there's a shortage of eggs in the cafeteria?" Su Jinxia looked at the golden eggs.

"This is the small stove they made for you. Last night you gave Old Yuan an injection. He slept soundly until dawn. Then he ran three kilometers around the playground. It was a great pleasure for him!"

"Oh no, I forgot to tell him that he should reduce his exercise in the next few days. But it shouldn't be a big deal, he's in good shape."

"Indeed, he had a good physique. During the march training, he was responsible for carrying the pot, which was a big pot for cooking. It was very heavy."

"I know, but you guys also train this?"

"They all have training. Even though they are in the navy, they still have to conduct military exercises several times a year to help everyone improve their physical fitness."

"You said it with such awe that I want to join the army. If I come here to join the army, will you accept me?"

"We don't have female soldiers here, only female doctors. We don't even have an art troupe. The main reason is that this place is too remote and there are only a bunch of old men here. Female doctors are also seconded here. They usually stay here for one or two years and then go back. It's impossible to stop them from going back on the grounds of marriage."

"So that's how it is. It's really hard for you."

"It's not that hard, many people join the army just to have a meal. Later, because the welfare benefits are good and the family has too many children to bear, they can get a certain amount of subsidy after joining the army.

After staying here for a while, I was inspired to serve my country.”

Su Jinxia thought about her previous plan for the future, which was to go to the countryside as an educated youth, and later she thought about going to college. After coming here, she was attracted by the blue sea and sky here, as well as the group of brave and lovely soldiers. If she could serve in the army here and be with Zhao Yue, it would actually be pretty good if she thought about it carefully.

But it's just a thought. After all, this place doesn't accept female soldiers, so I'd better follow the original track to apply for university!

After breakfast, they locked the door and took a car to look for Li Haixia.

The weather was a bit hot, so Su Jinxia took an umbrella with her. She didn't want to be exposed to the sun too much and turn into a tanner. She would have to take care of her skin for a long time before her skin looked good again.

When I came to the compound again, I saw a group of female workers cleaning up the fishing nets. It was a huge mess.

She didn't see Li Haixia, but saw a woman turning around and walking towards her. She immediately asked,

"Comrade, where is Li Haixia?"

"She's in the room!" He turned around and went to do something busy.

Su Jinxia could only walk through the crowd to get into the house. No one was stopping her and she went in smoothly. Then she heard Li Haixia say,

"I won't get married. I have a good job here. Why should I get married?"

"Haixia, my son is really a good kid. We have been together for a day now, and I am also a very easy-going person. As long as you are willing to marry, the gift can be discussed. Just tell me what you want, and I will definitely do it if I can."

"No need for that. I have a good job here and can make money. If you want money, just make it yourself." Li Haixia found the old lady in front of her really annoying. If she wasn't a relative of the boss's wife, she would have left long ago.

Luo Xiuchun's expression immediately fell, "Why don't you listen to me, kid? I'm doing this for your own good. You're just making money here, and you only make a few dollars a month. If you marry into our family, there's no need for you to weave fishing nets every day."

"I'm sorry, I just don't want to enjoy that blessing. There are so many girls here, you can ask others! Maybe some are willing to go back with you directly." Li Haixia believes that there is no such thing as a free lunch. She is not good-looking, and her only advantage is that she works hard.
