The all-round housekeeper is a stick

The next day, after breakfast, Lin Mumu headed straight for the scrapyard. He searched three scrapyards but couldn't find any suitable parts. He returned home disappointed.

Since he didn't buy anything, Lin Mumu simply went for a run to exercise and explore new routes. Anyway, with the hammer, he could remember the roads he had walked, and if it couldn't be used as a navigation, it could serve as a map.

It was almost time to run, so Lin Mumu went back to the Lin family, washed and dried the clothes he had changed into, and started preparing lunch.

The Lin family’s clothes have already piled up in a basin, but since no one in the family has signed to confirm the number of pieces, Lin Mumu said: I don’t want to wash them.

I am just so lazy. I will never take the initiative if I can avoid it.

For lunch, Lin Mumu made potato rice. She diced a small piece of leftover bacon, a small piece of pumpkin, and three large potatoes to make a pot of salty rice. The soup was shredded pork.

Although simple, it tastes pretty good.

Although the Lin family didn't praise him, they were so busy eating that they had no time to talk.

After dinner, Lin Huaiyu called Lin Mumu to read to her the text that Lin Huaiyu taught her last night.

Lin Mumu: ...

If she were still her original self, she would have burst into tears if she was asked to read the text like this. Just perfunctorily teaching her once and expecting her to understand, and then checking her homework, this...

If Lin Huaiyu's teacher behaved like this, how many people would be delayed?

Although he knew all of them, Lin Mumu didn't want to appear to be a genius. He would just read the simple ones. He wouldn't be able to read the ones with more strokes, or he would just read half of them. If he could read them correctly, he would just guess.

When Lin Mumu heard Lin Huaiyu say that she didn't study hard and even ran out in the morning, she felt that she couldn't be the only one who was upset.

So he told Lin Huaiyu that there was only enough food in the rice jar for two meals of rice, and there was only a little oil left, so he had to buy some. It didn't matter whether he bought oil directly or pork.

Also, there's no more bacon, and not many eggs left...

Lin Huaiyu's heart became more and more clogged as Lin Mumu kept saying, "It's almost gone."

This miserable spendthrift: "Can't you save money a little?"

"Why don't you all just eat less when you're eating? Every meal you cook is a little more than the last, and every time you eat, you ask me to cook a little more for the next meal."

"I don't eat much, but your family of four eats way too much. It's okay if it's big, but why does it keep increasing with each meal?"

Lin Mumu's words left Lin Huaiyu speechless. Although Lin Mumu's cooking was very casual and used a lot of oil, it was still better than what she had cooked before.

As for why every meal is not enough, it’s because of those two gluttons.

I always finish it and always say it’s not enough.

Waving Lin Mumu to wash the dishes, Lin Huaiyu thought about going out to buy those things after waking up in the afternoon. In the end, he slept late again.

"Mom, Lin Mumu brought a pile of wood and kept banging on it all afternoon. It was so noisy that it affected our homework." When Lin Yuanze came home, he saw his mother sitting in the living room waiting for him angrily, so he came to complain first.

When Lin Mumu knocked on the second wooden board, Lin Yuanze ran out to play, with the reason being: it was too noisy and it affected his studies.

When Lin Yuanyu came back and said the same thing, Lin Huaiyu was furious. However, she didn't immediately go to the kitchen to ask Lin Mumu what she was doing, fearing that Lin Mumu would get angry and not cook. Instead, she waited until dinner time to get angry.

By then the meal was ready and her husband had returned, which gave her courage.

"Your brother said you were knocking all afternoon. What were you knocking on? I'm telling you, don't deliberately make noise to disturb your two brothers' studies..."

Before Lin Huaiyu finished speaking, she saw Lin Mumu looking at her expressionlessly.

"You slept all afternoon, did you hear the noise? Your two sons saw you sleeping like a pig, so they sneaked out to play. Saying I disturbed them is just an excuse."

"Teacher Lin, you sleep until 10 o'clock in the morning, and then sleep again until four or five o'clock after dinner. How can you sleep so well?" Lin Mumu was very curious. There was no TV in the room, and now there was no mobile phone. How could Lin Huaiyu sleep in there for so long?

When she went back to her mother's house, she found a lot of story books that her elder and second brothers had saved. Lin Huaiyu brought a lot of them back. After she woke up, she ate some snacks in her room and then lay down to read the story books.

The two boys have to keep having her yell at them to do their homework properly, and she doesn't want to watch them do their homework.

But this cannot be said.

"I've had a tough pregnancy this time, and I'm quite sleepy." Lin Huaiyu felt a little guilty, and didn't notice if Lin Mumu was really tapping. So, she made up an excuse.

"Oh." Lin Mumu said and continued eating.

Lin Huaiyu, who was still thinking about how to say something more convincing, saw her say "Oh" and didn't even look at her again. He felt a little nervous: Is she trying to do something weird?

Lin Mumu said: No.

After dinner, Lin Mumu cleaned up the kitchen and was stopped by Lin Yuanyu.

"Mom asked you to wash your clothes." The two brothers went out to play in the afternoon and were sweating. Now they changed into another set of clothes. Including the changes made by their parents, they had more than 10 sets of clothes.

In the past, if their clothes got soaked with sweat, the brothers wouldn't necessarily change them. They could still wear them after airing them, though they'd have a slight odor. Now that they had a servant, they certainly didn't have to wear dirty clothes.
