The all-round housekeeper is a stick

Before Lu Xinyu could recover from her sympathy for Lin Mumu's miserable life in the countryside, she heard a piece of gossip: her cousin-in-law actually asked her to wash her underwear. She even threw her soiled pants to a child to wash when she got her period.

Before Lin Mumu had time to lament the difficulties of life in the countryside, he heard about the inhumane way Lin Jianhua and the others did things.

What were they thinking about letting their 8-year-old daughter work and support herself?

As for doing housework for money, it is so cheap. How much work do you have to do in a month to save a few dollars to buy winter clothes?

Buying winter clothes?

"Don't you have any winter clothes?"

Lin Mumu shook his head. "I only have two sets of clothes and a small quilt. In the summer, I wear one set and change into the other. In the winter, I wear both sets. When I go out to work, I use a straw rope to tie the quilt around my body as clothes."

When Lin Xiaoxia's daughter Lin Yuxin was not old enough to wear her original winter clothes, she still had clothes to wear.

When Lin Yuxin grew up, the original body only had the tattered quilt. However, there was still a quilt core, and a jacket that Lin Huaiyu didn't want and kept for her as a memory. Lin Xiaoxia tried to grab it several times, but the original body was so protective that she failed, so she emptied the cotton inside.

Even like that, the original owner was reluctant to wear it and kept it in good condition.

Lin Mumu pointed at her clothes and said, "This is new. My grandma and aunt gave it to me after my dad returned to the village. My old clothes would tear if I pulled them, but this new one won't."

Lu Xinyu looked at the patches on her clothes and felt very sad.

"Didn't your mother prepare anything for you when you came back this time?" Lu Xinyu asked, then found it funny. If she had been prepared, Lin Mumu wouldn't have had to use the salary she received in advance to buy daily necessities.

"No. Mom said she was feeling unwell because of her pregnancy and couldn't go out to prepare it for me. I cleaned my room myself."

Lin Mumu didn't say this in a complaining tone, but rather with a look of joy: "In the countryside, the utility room where I slept was right next to the chicken coop, and it was really smelly in the summer. But not here. Even though there are a lot of things in the room, it doesn't stink."

Lu Xinyu cursed Lin Huaiyu in her heart for being lazy and not acting like a mother, but she said she wanted to help Lin Mumu get the things.

Lin Mumu said so much because she wanted Lu Xinyu to go and see her room, so naturally she didn't refuse.

He took the wash basin tied to the wheel and gave it to Lu Xinyu. Lin Mumu still carried the tied wheel tire on his shoulder.

She was too small, with such a small head, and she was carrying so many wheels that Lu Xinyu was afraid that the wheels would fall down and crush her.

"What are you going to do with all those wheels?"

"I've looked through the books in my third cousin's room. Some of the cars are very interesting. I want to make a three-wheeled car and sell it. If I can sell it, I can buy two sets of winter clothes."

Lin Mumu spoke in a relaxed tone, but she was short, and the stacked wheels looked heavier than she was. Lu Xinyu was terrified. When they finally got home, she quickly helped lower the wheels.

Lin Mumu moved the wheelchair into the room where she slept, put the washbasin and other things on the ground, washed her hands, took two stainless steel cups to wash them, and led Lu Xinyu to the kitchen to drink water.

The door to the living room was closed from the inside. Lin Mumu stepped back and couldn't get in, so he apologized and asked Lu Xinyu to go to his room.

The furniture in the room was all old, but that was normal. What was unusual was that there wasn't even a mat on the bed. There were two sheets that were probably just brought in, and they hadn't been folded yet, and they looked wet again.

Lin Mumu wasn't surprised. When she first entered, she'd noticed the two thin quilts drying in the yard were also dripping wet. After rolling up the two damp sheets, Lin Mumu placed them on a low cabinet.

The low cabinet and the cabinet were also wet, and Lin Mumu wanted to roll his eyes.

Lin Yuanyu and the others were fools, yet Lin Huaiyu actually let them do what they wanted. She had nothing else to put, so whether the cabinet was wet or not didn't really affect her. She had only moved it out to dry because it smelled musty.

"Did your two brothers do it?" It was obvious that it was splashed with water. Lu Xinyu would not think that it was done by Lin Mumu himself.

"Maybe. I'll just move out later and let it air out."

Lu Xinyu looked at the empty room, the empty cabinets, and a small bundle on the empty bed. It probably contained the "new clothes" that Lin Mumu had just mentioned. Judging from the thickness, it was probably the clothes he was wearing now, no more than three sets.

Seeing the wet sheets, Lu Xinyu looked at the time on his watch again, thinking that if he stayed here, Lin Mumu would have no time to wash the sheets, so he said he would leave first.

As for Lin Huaiyu, she didn't want to say hello to her. After all, she saw clearly that Lin Mumu was about to push the door of the living room but didn't.

Lu Xinyu used to have a good impression of Lin Huaiyu: an intellectual teacher, a gentle wife and mother, and a filial daughter. Now all these positive reviews are gone.

There was a pile of dirty clothes by the well in the yard, and Lin Mu's wooden house was empty. Two sheets that looked very worn were splashed with water by her two sons.

It had been a while since Lin Mumu came back, and they had talked a lot, but the door was still closed. They didn't come out to take a look, nor did they let Lin Mumu in.

Look at how she treated Lin Mumu and those two boys, one 13 years old and the other 11 years old. Not only did she not help the new sister, she also splashed water on them.

Lu Xinyu couldn't help but wonder, can Lin Huaiyu teach good students? Fortunately, her child is already in high school.
