The all-round housekeeper is a stick

Chapter 32 Bottomless Pit

In the end, the two of them didn't take the pie back.

The two people who spent all their remaining money on pies thought that since there were so many pies, they would each eat one.

After lunch, we went out to play. When we got home tired, we told our grandma we were hungry and wanted some baked sweet potatoes and omelets. I thought, if she didn't have time to make them, I could just give her money to buy some food. There are so many street vendors these days that you can easily find delicious food.

Not only was there no food, but Grandma also asked Mom to take them back, saying she wasn't feeling well and couldn't take care of them. There was no afternoon snack, let alone dinner. They returned hungry.

The pie wasn't big, but it was delicious. The two of them scrambled to eat it, each afraid to miss out.

As a result, I couldn't stop eating, and when I got home, all I had left was a bag of steamed buns.

Even though Lin Huaiyu doted on her sons, she was still so angry that she felt dizzy when she saw that the two of them did not bring back any money or meat, and even ate extra meals to fill themselves up.

These two guys are such a nuisance. Fresh meat pies. 2 cents each, and they bought or of them, and they actually finished them all.

Lin Jianhua didn't expect that the two boys would be so greedy and selfish. They only thought about themselves and didn't consider him at all when he got home from get off work and his mother who was pregnant and had become very picky about food.

"No wonder my mom sent us back. These two kids have such big stomachs." Lin Huaiyu and her husband didn't finish the buns and soup. It was meant for four people.

I just didn't expect that the two boys could eat so much. After eating more than a dozen fresh meat patties, they also ate steamed buns and drank soup.

"If we keep eating like this, the food at home won't last until the end of the month. When you go to pick up Mumu, if you can bring him back, exchange him for some food in the countryside and bring it back."

After saying this, Lin Huaiyu was still very disgusted: "Tell Mumu to pack less things, just bring two sets of clothes for changing, and don't bring any other bedding or shoes. Ayu and Xiaoze's childhood clothes are still packed away, so when they come, they can wear those childhood clothes."

From the tone of his wife's voice, Lin Jianhua knew that she agreed to let him go back to pick up Mumu.

If I don't go back to pick it up, my brother will call me again. I told him before that the factory project is busy and it will not be completed until early August. It's only been two days since August and my brother has already called to ask when he can go to pick up Mumu.

The eldest brother had already scolded him, saying that he was unfilial, unkind, and unjust, that he didn't want his parents, brothers, sisters, or even his own daughter. He married into another family and became a son, and that he had lost all his humanity.

The phone was not soundproofed and the eldest brother's voice was particularly loud. He felt that the people next to him could hear what the eldest brother said, which made him feel a little guilty in front of everyone in the office.

He didn't want to go there to answer the phone anymore.

Fortunately, my wife has given in now.

When Mumu arrived, the house should be cleaner, or at least there wouldn't be any sour or smelly smells. Lin Jianhua never thought that country girls couldn't do housework. So, he was looking forward to a thorough cleaning of the house after his daughter returned.

He agreed with his wife's words. He had already thought it through. He would give Mumu's things to his eldest brother's granddaughter. The bedding and other things would be left for his eldest brother's children.

But he didn't expect his daughter to have so few things. She was even shorter than her eldest brother's 7-year-old grandson. Even the 5-year-old granddaughter looked taller than Lin Mumu.

Lin Jianhua felt that the 10 yuan he sent back every month was too much and he was losing a lot.

When he was about to move to the city, his parents divided the family property. His eldest brother's family had to support his parents, so his second brother got one room and he got another.

In order to keep Lin Mumu in the countryside, he also gave the room that belonged to him to his eldest brother's family.

The son who had split up the family was supposed to give his parents food every month, but he didn't have any. He told his parents that he wouldn't give any during the two years he was in school, and after that he would give 10 yuan, 7 yuan a month for his parents, and 3 yuan for Mumu's care.

If you calculate a pound of whole grains at 1 cents, 3 yuan can buy 30 pounds. How could a child like Mumu eat that much? So, the 3 yuan also includes Mumu's clothes, shoes, and daily necessities.

Lin Jianhua didn't expect that Mumu only had two sets of clothes, two loose and torn sets of clothes, one for him and one for changing. If he wore these two sets of clothes to the city, people would misunderstand him as picking up a little beggar and taking him home.

The shoes on his feet were straw sandals, which were even less valuable.

Lin Jianhua suddenly felt sorry for the 3 yuan he had sent over the past three years.

After meeting her adopted father, Lin Mumu didn't feel anything special about Lin Jianhua. She didn't even want to call him "Dad," and there was no real joy. It wasn't like she was her original self. After being abandoned for five years, she still dreamed of her parents loving her.

Seeing Lin Jianhua's distressed expression, Lin Jianshe and Chen Guixiang thought that Lin Jianhua was worried about his daughter. Lin Jianshe also asked Hong Mei to ask Lin Xiaoxia to get two sets of his granddaughter Lin Yuxin's clothes for Lin Mumu.

Lin Xiaoxia was not happy, but Chen Guixiang reluctantly took out a two-foot-long piece of cloth to exchange with her.

Lin Xiaoxia, who had received the cloth, gave the clothes she had collected from her mother's home to her mother-in-law and grandmother to choose from. She had already picked out the better-looking ones and kept them for her daughter.

They picked out two sets of clothes that only had a few patches on them and didn't look too worn and gave them to Lin Mumu. They also picked out two sets of pants that were really torn and looked a bit ugly and altered them for Lin Mumu.
