Yao Xiujuan suddenly remembered that when Youjun's child was born last year, Liu Jiali also had no milk. At that time, there was no milk powder either on the black market or in the supply and marketing cooperatives. The child cried loudly because of hunger, and Liu Jiali cried too. Finally, there was no other way, so Yao Youjun ran to her home in the middle of the night and asked Chu Tian for help. Chu Tian brought back a lot of milk powder the next day.
Chu Tianzhen is not a saint. After becoming a father, he has witnessed the birth of two newborns, from birth to babbling, and then to following him around and calling him "Dad" in a baby voice. He can't be cruel to the children.
Moreover, Chu Jun has changed a lot in the past few years. He has been very good to him, his younger brother, from the beginning to the end. Not to mention that Yu Zhen has been consistently good to Xiujuan and the three children in the family since she married Chu Jun.
It was getting late. Yao Xiujuan changed into work clothes and went to Xinxin's room. Seeing that Xinxin had woken up, while the other two children were still asleep, she began to tell them, "Xinxin, Mom has gone to the fields. Your great-grandmother is not at home. You should stay home with your younger siblings..."
Xinxin nodded obediently, "What about my dad?"
As Yao Xiujuan put on her headscarf, she said, "Your father went out for something."
After a pause, he continued, "Don't forget to feed the rabbits in the backyard later."
Xinxin got down from the kang after hearing this, put on her shoes and said, "Mom, I'll go feed the rabbits grass now."
Yao Xiujuan nodded and said, "Keep an eye on Lele and don't let her go to the well." Then she turned and walked out.
When she walked out of the yard, Yao Xiujuan saw Zhang Ping coming out of her yard with several children, so she stood there waiting for her to come closer.
"Second sister-in-law, they are going to school tomorrow, are you still taking them to the fields?"
Zhang Ping glanced at the children who followed reluctantly behind her, smiled and nodded to Yao Xiujuan, and said as they walked towards the field, "Well, they are not like Xinxin and Daya who actively study every day. Whenever their father and I are not at home, they secretly listen to the radio. They have used up six batteries this summer."
"Since you're not studying at home, why not come and work with me?"
Yao Xiujuan glanced back at the children and smiled, "My Xinxin and Pingping also listen to the radio every day. I said a few words to them, but Brother Tian was not happy. He said that listening to the radio more often and learning more about major events happening outside would be good for them..."
The children's eyes lit up when they heard this. Dazhu asked loudly, "Aunt, did Uncle really say that?"
Yao Xiujuan smiled and nodded, "Yes, that's what your uncle said."
Just when Dazhu was about to protest to Zhang Ping, he heard Yao Xiujuan speak again.
"But, whenever your uncle is home, he always asks Xinxin what she thinks after listening to the radio."
Dazhu's eyes widened in surprise. He ran over to Yao Xiujuan and asked in disbelief, "You have to give your thoughts after listening to the radio?"
Yao Xiujuan nodded. "Yes, if it weren't for the fact that Xinxin was only in third grade and didn't know many words, your uncle would have asked her to write a book review of no less than 300 words every day, and he would check it when he got home from work."
“····”
Dazhu took a few steps back in fear. He thought his uncle was terrifying. What was the point of listening to the radio? Wasn't it just for fun? Why would he write a review?
Yao Xiujuan looked at Dazhu's frightened expression and couldn't help laughing.
Zhang Ping pondered for a moment and said hesitantly, "Is listening to the radio really that beneficial as I said?"
Yao Xiujuan said seriously, "Of course, Brother Tian not only wants the children to listen, but also wants us to listen more."
Zhang Ping nodded. She still believed in Chu Tian. Even Chu Min said that it would only do good and no harm to listen to what Chu Tian said. So she turned to look at Dazhu and the others and gave instructions.
"Then you can listen to the radio for an hour every day, and then write down what your aunt just mentioned about that feeling."
Yao Xiujuan's immediate compensation, "Reading experience!"
Zhang Ping quickly said, "Yes, it's a review. You have to write one after you finish listening to it!"
Dazhu had an ugly expression on his face, as if he had eaten shit. "Mom, you don't even know a few words..."
Zhang Ping waved her hand nonchalantly. "It doesn't matter if I can't read. Doesn't your father know how to read? He can just check it when he's not driving!"
Dazhu opened his mouth and said after a while, "But, but I haven't started school yet and I can't read..."
Zhang Ping thought for a moment and said, "Well, then, except for your little brother, you all have to write! If you can't write, just do as your sister Xinxin does and say it out loud!"
“·····”
Upon hearing this, several children looked at Yao Xiujuan with resentment.
Chu Tian randomly found a place to walk around and waited for about an hour before walking towards Chu Jun's house. Just when he was about to reach his door, Chu Tian saw Chu Jun walking back.
"Big Brother..."
Chu Jun was walking forward with a gloomy face when he suddenly heard a sound. He looked up and saw Chu Tian riding a bicycle towards him. Seeing that it was Chu Tian, his expression improved a lot.
"Brother, are you back from driving?"
Chu Tian got off the bicycle, held the handlebars with both hands and walked in front of Chu Jun, "Well, I'm back."
"Brother, how did the matter go?"
Chu Jun was not surprised at all that Chu Tian knew about the matter, "The company commander locked her up."
Chu Tian was surprised. "Locked up? Where? Why locked up? Didn't they tell us how to solve the problem?"
Chu Jun's expression darkened again upon hearing this. He spoke in a low voice, "The company commander said that since there was no actual harm, there was no way to send her to the regiment headquarters, so he temporarily locked her up in the company compound."
After a pause, Chu Jun said viciously, "But I won't let her go!"
“····”
Chu Tian sighed inwardly. He really couldn't understand what Ma Cuihua was thinking. You had cheated on a man and even had two children with him. If Chu Jun could let you go, wouldn't you have just taken the two children and stayed away? Why did she have to keep coming to Chu Jun to cause trouble?
This is good, the Chu army will completely hate it...
"Brother, I heard Xiujuan say that the child had no milk to drink, so she drank some rice soup today. How can you give rice soup to a child all the time? It has no nutrition at all!"
"I asked someone to exchange some milk powder for you. Take it back and feed it to your child. I'll find some for you when he's done."
Chu Jun was stunned when he heard this, then his eyes turned red, tears welled up in his eyes, and he choked and said, "Little brother, brother, brother, thank you..."
Chu Tian was startled by Chu Jun's sudden tears, "Brother, don't be like this, I..."
Chu Jun raised his arm to wipe away his tears and gave Chu Tian an ugly smile, "Little brother, big brother, big brother really thank you, you didn't see your nephew, he didn't even cry, big brother was afraid that he would not survive..."
"Woo woo woo"
“····”
Men don't shed tears easily. The few times Chu Jun cried were more or less related to Ma Cuihua, and Chu Tian was helpless.
