Zheng Mudan is a straightforward person, but she scared Su Zhen a lot.
Her fear of Yang Dahua was deeply engraved in her bones. She was afraid that if her voice was too loud, people in the house would hear it and her life would become difficult in the future.
Seeing the person in front of her cowering, Zheng Mudan sighed, "Ah Zhen, your husband is the main labor force of the Shi family. What are you afraid of? You should be braver too. Even for the sake of your two children, you have to live like a human being."
Su Zhen pursed her lips: "..."
Chengcheng and Doudou were playing under the eaves!
It took the two little guys a while to recover after seeing their second aunt return safely. They were quite frightened.
Just at this moment Tian Yuzhu pushed open the door and came out of the hut!
I saw that her hair was wet and draped behind her head, and she was wearing clean clothes.
The skin on her face is white and tender, and she looks as beautiful as a lotus flower emerging from water.
Without time to think, Su Zhen, who was stunned for a moment, quickly rushed over and covered her head with the old cotton cloth she had prepared in advance: "Quick, go back to the house."
In this kind of weather, if you slow down a bit, your hair will freeze.
The group hurried into the house. The fire was already burning brightly, and they hurriedly asked Tian Yuzhu to sit over it and warm herself.
Seeing Second Aunt come back after washing, the two little ones who were playing outside also followed her back into the house.
Zheng Mudan and Su Zhen took turns using cloths to quickly wipe the silly girl's hair until it was half dry.
"Oh, sister Yuzhu is really a great beauty in the whole area. The more I look at her, the more beautiful she becomes." After finishing her work, Zheng Mudan began to calm down and appreciate this little girl.
It looks good to begin with, and it is even more eye-catching after washing.
Here, when they went to the courtyard earlier, Old Lady Lü Huanying had other plans in mind: "Mudan, I heard that you went to school when you were a child?"
In fact, the old lady knew very well that everyone in Quanshui Village knew that the accounts of the village party secretary's family were managed by Zheng Mudan, the eldest daughter-in-law.
I heard that she can read and do math.
It just so happened that the village party secretary also wanted to give the eldest son a try and see if he could support the whole family, so he let Zheng Mudan take charge of the accounts a few years ago.
If this wasn't managed well, it wouldn't have continued until now.
Zheng Mudan didn't hide it at this time, and smiled and said, "Grandma, I went to school for three years at my mother's house when I was young, and later I learned a little on my own. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Now I'm in charge of the work points and money and grain for the family. But after all, it's also because of the trust of my father-in-law and my family."
Lu Huanying nodded: "Then grandma has a request for you, okay?"
"Grandma, tell me, don't mention just one. As long as I can do it, I can agree to it."
"Teach Yuzhu arithmetic."
"Jade beads?"
"Yes, I dare not ask for more. I just hope that Yuzhu can know how to spend money and know how to use it in the future."
Su Zhen is good at housework and can do everything at home and outside.
But she is illiterate and has no idea how to manage money, in this respect she cannot compare to Zheng Mudan.
That's why the old lady had such an idea.
It’s just perfect. Both sisters-in-law are nice to Yuzhu. Each of them teaches her something. The more she learns, the better. It’s a good thing.
Seeing that the old lady had said so much, Zheng Mudan didn't think much about it and agreed readily: "Okay, grandma, don't worry, I will definitely teach Yuzhu patiently."
Yang Dahua overheard the conversation in the cabin.
When she heard that the old lady wanted Zheng Mudan to teach Tian Yuzhu how to count, she was suddenly shocked.
That won't do. If that idiot knows how to count, she won't be able to control the household expenses that Shi Zhentang sends back in the future!
It seems that we have to find a way to make Zheng Mudan back down.
…
Such a big thing happened in the village today. Secretary Zhang immediately called the county government after returning to the commune and reported the situation in detail.
Instructions were given from above that the advanced collective would definitely belong to the entire commune, and the title of individual hero would definitely go to Tian Yuzhu.
The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the commendation meeting will be held as soon as possible. Please wait for notification from the commune.
After hanging up the phone, Secretary Zhang quickly held an emergency meeting and told everyone the good news.
When he was at Old Shi's house before, he had only said it was a possibility, but now that it had been confirmed, everyone was very excited.
Only Lu Juanjuan frowned.
"Xiao Lu, do you have any ideas?" Secretary Zhang found that she seemed to be somewhat resistant.
"Oh, no."
Among the cadres, Lu Juanjuan has always been a popular person.
Now in front of so many people, she didn't want to appear shallow and become the kind of person who tells tales.
"Since there is none, then let's adjourn the meeting."
Everyone stood up and left the meeting room. Only then did Lu Juanjuan walk over to Secretary Zhang and express her thoughts: "Secretary Zhang, I think letting Tian Yuzhu represent the entire commune in the hero commendation process requires some additional consideration."
Secretary Zhang stopped and asked, "What's the reason?"
Lu Juanjuan said seriously, "Firstly, Tian Yuzhu's brain isn't working very well, so I'm not sure what she'll say when the time comes. Secondly, I always feel like her reaction is very abnormal. How could someone like her know how to save others? Could it be... that she was riding on the back of that black wolf just a coincidence?"
"You don't have to doubt this. Many people saw Miss Yuzhu, riding on the wolf's back, holding on tightly to Shengsheng. Think about it, if she wasn't trying to save someone, how would she know to grab the baby?"
Secretary Zhang smiled good-naturedly: "As for whether Yuzhu can speak by then, that can be taught!"
Lu Juanjuan shook her head and sighed, looking as if it was unlikely. "Secretary, you've only met her once, so you don't understand how foolish she is..." Then she changed the subject: "As for the wild boar she picked up, I also have my doubts..."
"Don't worry about that. Lao Xu told me everything that happened on the mountain today."
"Secretary? What happened on the mountain today?"
"Shi Zhentang was on a mission in the mountains. He assured Lao Xu that Miss Yuzhu's finding of the wild boar had nothing to do with the spies."
“…”
Lu Juanjuan was suddenly speechless.
Zhentang, didn’t he return to the army?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she had to get to the bottom of what happened. After Secretary Zhang left, Lu Juanjuan went to the commune's large dormitory to question Kong Xingbai.
As a member of the coordination committee, Kong Xingbai felt that there was nothing to hide about today's incident.
Especially the part where Shi Zhentang and his team rescued Tian Yuzhu, he told Lu Juanjuan everything.
Lu Juanjuan became a little excited after hearing this.
Shi Zhentang was actually carrying out a mission in the snow-capped mountains behind Quanshui Village. What's even more infuriating is that he shot and saved Tian Yuzhu.
It was such a beautiful thing for a hero to save a beauty, but I didn't expect that this loophole would be taken advantage of by that fool.
For some reason, Lu Juanjuan felt a deep sense of crisis for the first time.
Things no longer seem that simple.
At first, she wanted to wait until the New Year to have a good talk with Shi Zhentang, and then send Tian Yuzhu back to Tianjia Village, so that she could get what she wanted.
But now, why did things suddenly become out of control?
