The cannon fodder female supporting role stirs up trouble in period literature
Chapter 42 Every Failure Makes You Learn
Because Zhou Tiedan was too young, Hua Rendong did not dare to give him rock sugar. Instead, she gave the rock sugar to her eldest cousin's wife, Wang Xiuli, and asked her to melt it in boiling water and feed it to him.
Seeing that everyone else had rock sugar but he didn't, Zhou Gangdan burst into tears.
When Wang Xiuli brought the child over to coax her, she stuffed the rock sugar into her mouth and chewed it with such a crunchy sound.
Hua Jindong didn't really need that piece of candy, but seeing how skillfully she did it, she felt a little uncomfortable. However, she just comforted herself that Wang Xiuli was just doing it as a conditioned reflex.
But she didn't give Wang Xiuli an extra piece. Maybe it was because of the aura, but both she and the original owner Hua Erhua didn't like Zhang Yun and Wang Xiuli, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Their relationship was just superficial.
Each child was given a piece of rock candy, but most of them were reluctant to put it directly into their mouths and eat it, so they licked it carefully with their tongues.
Instead, Zhou Xiaoya and Zhou Xiaoyue took the rock candy and ran to the outer room, "Mom, mom, this is given by my second cousin, lick it."
Fang Yanhong said, "Oh, this is a good thing. My second cousin gave it to my daughter. My daughter wanted to give it to her sweet mouth... Okay, now that I've licked it, it's really sweet. You guys can eat it too."
The two sisters came in from outside, chewing candies with a crunching sound.
Zhou Lanxiang and Zhou Xiahe looked at each other, and finally went to the outer room reluctantly, "Mom, you lick it too."
Zhang Yun was silent for a moment, then said dryly, "I won't lick it anymore. Leave it for Gangdan and Tiedan. Gangdan, Tiedan, come here and have some candy."
Zhou Gangdan stuffed the candy in his hand into his mouth and ran to the outer room while chewing, "Grandma, I'm coming."
Zhou Tiedan, who was still crying in Wang Xiuli's arms, also struggled to get out of Wang Xiuli's arms and followed behind staggeringly.
Listening to Zhang Yun feeding candy to his two grandchildren and reminding them to eat slowly and not to choke, Hua Jindong ignored the noise in the outer room. Zhou Lanxiang and Zhou Xiahe came into the room and looked at her with aggrieved look, but she pretended not to see it.
The two girls are not children anymore, and it is time for them to learn from their mistakes. With such a biased mother, they should know how to secretly put the delicious food into their own mouths first in the future.
There were a room full of women and children. Hua Jianshe asked Grandma Zhou how her leg was and then went out, saying that he was going to the river to find Zhou Laiying and the others. Hua Rendong also hurriedly got up and chased after him.
The father and son walked towards the river. A few children wanted to follow them, but Hua Jianshe sent them back. He said that if there were so many children going out with him and something happened to one of them without him keeping an eye on them, he could not afford the consequences.
Besides, he and Hua Rendong came to see Zhou Laiying and Hua Dahua today to talk about work, so it was inconvenient to talk with so many children around. What if they spread the word and others thought it was easy for their family to get a job, and then they all came to his family to get a job? What should he do?
It costs a lot of money to get a job in the city. If he really has the ability to get the job and needs to pay, will people think that he is colluding with others to get benefits?
Besides, he didn't have that ability, otherwise he wouldn't have watched Hua Dahua being urged to go to the countryside and couldn't think of a solution.
When they arrived at the river, they saw Zhou Laiying and Hua Dahua each holding a basin and standing on the shore fishing. Hua Jianshe breathed a sigh of relief, because he was really afraid that his wife would take their eldest daughter into the water to fish.
The weather was still a little cold at that time, and the river water was icy. I got sick when I pulled the fish out, but fortunately my wife was not stupid.
Hua Honeysuckle saw that there were already quite a few fish in the bucket on the shore. Except for a few crucian carp and melon seeds, the rest were small river fish such as whitebait and loach. She felt a little itchy in her heart.
The river water at that time was very clean, and the fish in the river tasted better than those there today. Small river fish like this were salted and dried, and then fried in oil when eaten. They were simply delicious.
Of course, the prerequisite is that Zhou Laiying cannot be the chef.
Honeysuckle used his supernatural power to follow the weeds on the shore and into the river.
The more she uses her supernatural powers, the more powerful they become. Now, she doesn't even need to touch the plants with her hands to transmit her supernatural powers. As long as the plants are within a hundred meters, they can be controlled by her.
Soon, through the information transmitted back by the water plants, she discovered several big fish hiding in the center of the river, including crucian carp, carp, silver carp, and more were small fish and shrimps. Her favorite was a small fish called blind fish here.
The blind lump is not big and looks very ugly, but it is really delicious, especially when it is stewed in sauce.
However, these fish are all under deeper water. Zhou Laiying and Hua Dahua fished for a long time but didn’t catch a single one.
Hua Honeysuckle collected all the fish she thought were delicious within the 100-meter river area and put them into the space. She also dug a pond in the space and collected a lot of river water.
When Zhou Laiying saw the father and son coming over, she was puzzled at first, then she waved the basin in her hand and said, "Second girl, there are old-nosed fish in the water, come and fish them out too?"
Hua Honeysuckle walked over and took the basin, and saw Hua Dahua, who was originally happily fishing, suddenly straightened up and frowned, as if he wanted to stare a flower out of the river water.
After staring for a long time, he called Zhou Laiying, "Mom, where are the fish? Why can't you find any?"
Zhou Laiying was walking towards Hua Jianshe, wanting to ask him how he got here. After hearing what Hua Dahua said, he said nonchalantly, "Why are you in such a hurry? You have to be patient to catch fish. Just keep watching for a while longer."
Hua Dahua muttered something strange, but continued to stare at the river seriously.
Hua Honeysuckle felt guilty. She was too excited just now and caught all the fish in one go.
Fortunately, it didn't take long before a new school of fish swam over. This time, Hua Honeysuckle only collected the big fish in the center of the river, and left the small fish on the riverside to Hua Dahua to play with.
Hua Jianshe told Zhou Laiying about Hua Rendong's transfer to the Women's Federation. "The second girl said that she wanted the eldest girl to take her shift at the machinery factory. What did you say? She said she even found a job for you as a childcare worker."
Zhou Laiying was delighted when she heard this. "Is this really true? You found a job for me? Since the second daughter has a better job, the work at the machinery factory must be taken over by our family. We don't have to worry about the eldest daughter being suddenly sent to the countryside. What are you hesitating about?"
Seeing Zhou Laiying's heartless look, Hua Jianshe sighed, "Don't you think about why the second girl can suddenly join the Women's Federation? We haven't seen the bearded uncle she mentioned. It's okay if he is really the second brother's friend, but what if he has bad intentions?"
Zhou Laiying also fell into deep thought after hearing this. After a long while, she said, "You mean, you don't want to work at the Women's Federation anymore?"
This time Hua Jianshe was silent. He certainly would not let Hua Rendong give up her job at the Women's Federation. Not everyone could enter such a work unit.
He was just worried that she was no longer under his supervision and he would not be able to protect her. If something really happened to his niece, he would not be able to face his second brother in the future.
But what if this is just a normal job and he really stops it, he would be blocking his niece's path to advancement.
