Chu Wuyi obtained his job through his own examination and was paid an apprentice's salary, so it was inevitable that it would be low.
But at least he still has more than ten yuan. An ordinary temporary worker might only earn eight or nine yuan a month. This amount of money is already quite good for someone who has just started working.
The Chu family was fully capable of arranging a good job for him, but they didn't because they wanted him to gain experience on his own.
Given Chu Wuyi's inconsistent nature, he actually managed to stick to it for a month, which made the elders of the Chu family quite gratified.
In particular, Old Master Chu immediately rewarded Chu Wuyi with a bicycle, a bicycle that belonged to him.
"Thank you, Grandpa!" Chu Wuyi jumped up happily.
No one dislikes prizes, and he was no exception.
The old man has already said that Chu Weinian and Chu Xiaonian cannot fall behind.
The two were quite direct, avoiding any fancy gestures or monetary rewards.
Chu Wuyan snatched the money from Chu Wujin's hand, counted it, and said, "It's more than two years' salary for you. You've made a killing."
The moment Chu Wujin finished counting, he snatched it back and said smugly, "Third Brother, you can only be envious."
Would Chu Wuyan be envious? That's impossible.
I was just teasing my younger brother.
"Alright, stop showing off and go get your bowl and eat." Tang Jie came out of the kitchen and couldn't bear to look at her youngest son's silly face. She said to him in an annoyed tone.
Upon hearing this, Chu Wuyou and his three brothers all stood up and went to the kitchen to get chopsticks and serve the dishes.
Lin Xiaoxiao also learned that Chu Weinian and Chu Xiaonian had not separated their family. Although the two brothers rarely lived together due to work, they would return to their grandfather's house whenever they had time.
The two families have a very good relationship. Tang Jie and Wan Fen are both good-tempered people, and there are no conflicts between the sisters-in-law. They get along harmoniously.
The five Chu brothers below are all close in age and grew up together since childhood, so their bond is naturally very strong.
The family is harmonious and happy, truly embodying the traditional meaning of "harmony in the family brings prosperity in all things".
Lin Xiaoxiao really liked this family atmosphere. The elders were wise and loving, and the younger generation was ambitious and filial. There were no ulterior motives, and no matter what happened, everyone was united and friendly, and worked together towards the same goal.
But as the saying goes, some things you weren't born with, you'll never have in this lifetime.
Lin Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes and suddenly thought of her parents who had passed away early in her previous life.
She was both relieved that they left early, avoiding the cruelty and bloodshed of the apocalypse, and regretful that they left too soon, as the memory gradually faded from her mind.
Alas, life is always full of regrets.
Just as she was feeling down, she felt a gentle touch in her belly, as if the little one was gently stroking her stomach.
The feeling was like a gentle breeze rippling across a calm lake, pulling her scattered thoughts back to reality.
The little one seemed to sense her mother's low mood. At first, it was just a very faint poke, followed by another, like a little finger gently poking her, tender and playful.
Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but smile, her eyes filled with happiness.
She placed her hand on her abdomen and touched it soothingly, as if in response.
So what if she doesn't have one? She has a gentle and considerate man, and now she has a baby. They will be the closest family.
She is very happy and content now.
"Dinner's ready, Xiaoxiao, come quick!" Wanfen called out to Lin Xiaoxiao.
The Chu family has many members, so they specially bought a large round table to ensure that everyone could sit down.
This wasn't Lin Xiaoxiao's first time dining at the Chu family's house; she was already quite familiar with the place.
"This fish is fried perfectly." Old Master Chu ate the whole fish, meat and bones alike, savoring the taste.
Old Master Chu used to carry many hidden injuries from the battlefield, which would flare up if he wasn't careful, causing him great discomfort.
Therefore, I am extra careful about my diet and lifestyle, and I dare not eat spicy or greasy food at all.
The plate of fried fish was placed in front of him, and he ate several in a row without anyone stopping him, which showed that he was feeling much better.
All of this is thanks to Lin Xiaoxiao.
The bottle of pills that Lin Xiaoxiao gave him, which had the effect of strengthening the body and nourishing the vital energy, was taken by Grandpa Chu without fail, just as she requested.
In just a few months, she looked more than ten years younger.
The internal injuries have mostly healed.
The old man was the pillar of the Chu family. Seeing his health improve, the filial sons and grandsons felt an overwhelming and endless gratitude towards Lin Xiaoxiao.
At the dinner table, Lin Xiaoxiao didn't even need to pick up food herself; she just buried her head in her food.
She would experience this scene every time she came to the Chu family.
They're so eager.
After finishing her meal, Lin Xiaoxiao was about to leave when Grandpa Chu called her back, "Lin girl, come and sit down, have a chat with this old man."
Lin Xiaoxiao would not refuse such a request.
He walked over and sat down calmly. "Grandpa Chu, what are you talking about?"
Old Master Chu's face scrunched up like a chrysanthemum as he feigned disdain, saying, "The title 'Grandpa Chu' doesn't sound nice."
"Huh?" Lin Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment.
His eyes widened involuntarily, making him look a little dazed and cute.
She didn't understand what Old Master Chu meant, so she turned to look at Chu Wuyou and the others, her eyes asking.
Seeing this, Chu Weinian couldn't help but laugh. "Dad, please stop teasing her."
Having taken off his military uniform and now only wearing civilian clothes, Chu Xiaonian casually slumped on the sofa and said, "Grandpa, when did you become so mischievous? Hurry up and get to the point, don't scare that little girl."
I wouldn't say I was terrified, but I was definitely dumbfounded.
Grandpa Chu chuckled heartily twice, then, without keeping her in suspense any longer, asked Lin Xiaoxiao, "The title 'Grandpa Chu' doesn't sound very nice. It would be even better if you could remove the surname."
