The all-round housekeeper is a stick

When Lin Mumu returned home to cook dinner in the evening, she felt that Lin Yuanyu and Lin Yuanze were in a low mood, but she didn't ask.

I just felt like they were a little too well-behaved today. Not only did they help serve dishes and soup before dinner, but after taking a shower, they even washed their own dirty clothes.

This behavior really shocked Lin Mumu. Then, Lin Mumu showed his enthusiasm for once and gave them a round of encouraging applause.

"Excellent! You washed the clothes so clean today."

Lin Yuanyu and the other two were actually just being angry. They were deliberately contradicting their mother who didn't cook for them, and they washed their changed clothes directly without putting them in with their mother's clothes, leaving her clothes piled up there without anyone washing them.

They didn't wash much clothes, just their autumn clothes, autumn trousers, and outer pants. They only wiped the dirty parts of their thick cotton coats with a wet cloth and dried them in the sun.

But after being praised by Lin Mumu, the two felt a little embarrassed and said that they knew how to wash clothes and would wash them themselves when they had time.

Lin Mumu naturally gave her a lot of praise and compliments. Although they often changed clothes once a week after winter came, and not all of them, she didn't want to wash them if she could avoid washing them.

Because Lin Huaiyu was lazy and sloppy, Lin Jianhua and the other two became dissatisfied with her, so Lin Mumu took the opportunity to say that she would not wash Lin Huaiyu's clothes.

Otherwise, if they united, there would be more trouble. Although she could make a fuss and try to avoid washing, she would avoid it if possible. She would get tired of making too much trouble.

To commend them for their laundry, Lin Mumu rewarded them with 10 small meat buns the next morning. It wasn't that she was being generous and wanted to give them more, but rather that the buns were only slightly larger than a dollar coin.

If the buns didn't have meat in them, she'd be embarrassed to call them "little meat buns"—they were so tiny. But they were on sale, 1 for 1000 point, so she didn't mind.

It’s really hard for the people who make dumplings. There are only 1000 of them, and they are divided into two flavors: pork with mushrooms and pork with green onions.

"What is this? It's so small." Lin Yuanze asked curiously when he saw the bowl of small steamed buns in Lin Mumu's bowl.

"Little meat buns, these are a reward for you and your brother to wash your own clothes. Ten each, they don't have any. Eat them quickly."

After Lin Mumu finished speaking, she took the noodle dumpling soup and ate it, taking sips of soup and bites of buns.

Lin Jianhua didn't have any, he only had pancakes. Before cooking the noodle soup, Lin Mumu made some pancakes with a batter of white flour and cornmeal. After making ten pancakes, he added some flour to the remaining batter and cooked the noodle soup.

Seeing that the three of them had other small buns to eat, Lin Jianhua felt a little envious, but those were bought by Lin Mumu with her own money, and were used as a reward for her two brothers for washing their own clothes. No matter how envious he was, he was too embarrassed to ask for them.

Moreover, these past few days, for some unknown reason, these two boys also like to stand in the kitchen and eat breakfast instead of going to the living room. Otherwise, he could pick up two from the bowl and try them.

But pancakes are also fine.

After breakfast, Lin Jianhua was about to go out to work when he was stopped by Lin Huaiyu who had just come out of the room.

"I have to go to work today. Tell Lin Mumu that I've asked for leave for her. She doesn't have to go to school and can stay at home to look after Xiaobao."

Lin Jianhua was about to let her speak for herself, but she changed her mind and said, "Forget it, no need to say it."

Lin Huaiyu had already made a cup of milk powder in the room and ate a few cakes. That was considered breakfast.

"Come with me to move the cradle out. Xiaobao is still sleeping, so be gentle." Lin Huaiyu urged Lin Jianhua to go into the house and move the cradle.

After Lin Jianhua moved, he was about to ask her what she planned to do with her children.

"Let Lin Mumu stay at home and watch over the kids. I'm going to work." Lin Huaiyu took her bag, went to the yard to get her bicycle, and called Lin Yuanze.

"Aze, hurry up, it's time to go to school."

Lin Yuanze drank the last mouthful of soup and ran out, a little dazed: "Mom, are you going to school today? Are you going to eat lunch at school?"

"Yes. Bring your dishes." Lin Huaiyu walked to the kitchen door and said to Lin Mumu, "Xiaobao is still sleeping. The diapers and milk powder are in the living room. Take good care of him. You don't have to cook for us at noon."

After saying that, Lin Huaiyu urged Lin Yuanze to hurry up, as she had to arrive early today.

After hearing Lin Huaiyu's words, Lin Mumu stopped cleaning the kitchen and walked out to ask her what she meant.

"I've asked for leave for you. Starting today, you don't have to go to school. Take good care of Xiaobao at home..."

Lin Huaiyu's matter-of-fact attitude made Lin Mumu laugh: "You think too much! Either send me back to the village, or break off relations with me. Otherwise, I can't be a nanny for your children."

After saying that, Lin Mumu went into his room and quickly packed his luggage.

Fortunately, after Lin Huaiyu's trouble that day, she was ready to leave at any time, and she would pack all her things every time she got up.

Stuff all your stuff into the backpack, and if it doesn't fit in, put it in a big bag, lift it up, put your schoolbag on your back, push the bike and you're good to go.
