I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

She touched her mouth and found some potato chip residue. She wiped her mouth and smiled, "You haven't eaten yet?"

She seemed to feel the atmosphere suddenly relax.

What Ji Xiaobei didn't know was that when he woke up early in the morning, Shitou was scolded by his mother and Xiaoju again. The whole family thought that Ji Xiaobei was still angry about what happened yesterday, but when they saw the smile on Ji Xiaobei's face, they all felt relieved.

"No, I'm waiting for you, Bei, come and eat!" Lin smiled and pulled Ji Xiaobei to sit down.

"Mom, eating this again..." A wave of nausea came over me. Damn, this is the legendary pregnancy reaction. I really can't stand the sight of this black vegetable soup.

"Bei, what's going on? Why don't you go to the town to have a look? Mother still has two silver hairpins. Take them and pawn them..." Lin said, stroking her broad back.

She was wondering, a person with this physique shouldn't get sick, look at his sallow complexion.

"Mom, it's okay. I'm trying to lose weight. I'll eat less!" Ji Xiaobei was sweating all over.

Some people couldn't understand it. They had gained weight with great difficulty. How much food did they have to eat to get to this size? Why did they have to lose weight again?

"Mom, if I were thinner, maybe I could get married!"

Lin was stunned. Yes, a girl can’t stay at home forever. She will get married sooner or later.

There were a lot of cold things in the refrigerator, so she ate a lot of greasy food and felt a little nauseous.

After learning from her mistakes, Lin never let her daughter work in the fields again and asked her to stay at home obediently.

Several of them went out carrying shovels.

She lay on the kang and leisurely looked at the ingredient list of scallion pancakes, and suddenly she understood why Xiaoju didn't know how to make it.

She has never seen flour before, so how can she cook it?

She used her mind to open the refrigerator door, and the letter she wrote was still lying there.

Holding my mother's jewelry and thinking about her appearance, I really want to go home.

She suddenly understood that only after a sleep could she see the things her mother put in the refrigerator. In other words, this was not a parallel universe, but a time difference.

She rummaged through the refrigerator and found a bag of flour, which she took out.

I picked up a pig's trotter and ate it until my mouth was full of oil...

It's easy to gain weight by watching over the refrigerator, so she looked at her bulging belly, broke off a small piece, and put the rest back into the refrigerator.

Feeling full and sleepy, she pulled a brand new quilt over herself and fell asleep.

She began to dream again in a daze.

Zheng Guo, her dear mother obediently took the bracelet and necklace after seeing the note, muttering to herself, "She doesn't even want these things in her world?"

The workmanship is so fine, it’s a limited edition from Chow Tai Fook.

She didn't even eat and went to the bank with the gold bars.

Banks are full of gold bars, there are no small silver or gold particles at all.

Later, she had an idea and went to the jewelry store.

The lady in the jewelry store received her warmly and took out a box of small silver beads, which were semi-finished products to be made into earrings.

"Girl, do you have such big gold particles here?" Zheng Guo asked with a smile.

"Yes, yes!" It seemed that she had met a big customer. The young lady smiled like a flower and brought out a box of glittering gold particles.

"I'll take both boxes!" Zheng Guo said without hesitation, waving his hand.

The young lady thought she was going to pick a few, but she didn't expect...

"Sister, what do you need so much for? Gold is very expensive now, but silver is cheaper." The young lady was surprised but kept a professional smile on her face.

"Don't worry about it. I'll weigh it here!" Zheng Guo said readily.

"Okay, sister, I'll weigh it for you right away!"

"How much silver is there in total?" Zheng Guo saw the little girl holding a highly accurate electronic scale and counting it here and there, and asked impatiently.

The young lady was stunned. "Huh? How much silver?"

"Sister, we are selling by gram now. Gold beads are 50 grams, and silver beads are 660 grams!"

Zheng Guo muttered, "One tael of silver is 50 grams, and 660 grams is... is..." She couldn't figure it out, so she picked up the calculator on the counter and started calculating.

"660 grams is 13 liang! Not much!" She scratched her head and asked, "Miss, do you have any more silver particles?"

"Sister, there is no more now. If you want, I will leave more for you next time!" said the young lady politely.

Zheng Guo held the young lady's hand, added each other on WeChat, swiped the card, and before leaving, he stuffed a business card into the young lady's hand.

"Girl, I opened a boxing gym. If you want to practice, come to me and I'll give you a discount. Adults and children are welcome."

The young lady took the business card with a smile and watched Zheng Guo walk away.

Ji Xiaobei came over with a big smile on his face. It was because my mother's shop was doing so well that all the competitors had gone bankrupt, but she was the only one who was still standing strong. My mother had a talent for sales.

In the past, whenever her mother took her out to eat ramen, she had to talk the boss into giving her a lot of advice, and finally successfully put the flyer at the boss's front desk.

Since the children’s parents did not trust their mother, she took the children to practice herself, even took care of their meals, and helped take care of the children for free during the winter and summer vacations.

The parents of those children took the initiative to help their mother attract students.

That’s how my mother opened her Taekwondo gym. She put all her efforts into it and worked hard to earn money so that she could go to college.

Unfortunately, she was a loser. She failed to get into high school and went to a technical secondary school. Her mother asked someone to spend money to get her into a public kindergarten. Money was not important. What was important was stability, not being tiring, and having winter and summer vacations.

She didn't understand her mother before, but now that she has to live independently, she suddenly feels that her mother has worked very hard to go from being penniless to being able to buy a car and a house. It is really not easy.

Her eyes were wet and she woke up suddenly.

I wiped my eyes and felt full of strength. I wanted to live as strong as my mother.

She got up and carried the bag of noodles to the kitchen. If she couldn’t cook, could she learn?

She poured half a bag of white flour into a black porcelain basin, scooped half a gourd of water and poured it in, then began to knead the dough. With a "poof", fine white powder covered her face.

Damn it, you have murderous intentions and I can’t get rid of you.

She carefully stirred it with her fingers until it became floc-like and began to knead it with both hands. Her hands were covered with white flour and her five fingers could not be opened.

She was so anxious that she was about to cry. She put the stains on her right hand, then on her left hand, and the stains on her left hand became more and more.

Xiaoju came back to get something and as soon as she entered the room she saw her elder sister with white hands and a sad face.

She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She washed her hands and helped her sister to remove the wet noodles from her hands, and then she neatly rolled them into a ball together with the dough in the basin.

Xiaoju's hands were smooth, without a trace of flour on them.

Ji Xiaobei looked at her in surprise.

Xiaoju puffed out her chest. She was not as strong as her elder sister, not as thick-skinned as her elder sister, and not as stubborn as her elder sister. But, finally, she was better than her elder sister in one aspect.
