Time Travel: The Vicious Female Supporting Character's Counterattack

The two children had to go to work, so they stayed at Shen Shuyu's house for more than an hour and then went back.

The firewood they brought was neatly stacked in the corner of the yard.

Before leaving, Chen Sheng said that he would continue to carry firewood for her.

"Don't worry about carrying it here. I still have enough firewood at home. You can prepare enough firewood at home and then carry it here." They definitely don't have money to buy coal. They rely on firewood in winter. If there is not enough firewood, they will not be able to survive the winter.

"My family has enough firewood to last the winter, but my uncle's firewood is still not enough. I will carry some for my uncle for a while, and then I will carry some for Teacher Shen later."

"Don't worry, you can carry it here tomorrow. There's no place to store the firewood at home now."

Going up the mountain was long and tiring, and Shen Shuyu didn't need him to carry firewood for her. If she had just said that she didn't need him to bring firewood, the two children would have been so scared that they would have racked their brains to think of something to help her.

Chen Sheng thought that the yard was so big that putting it in the corner wouldn't cause any problem, but this was Teacher Shen's home, and maybe Teacher Shen just didn't like to put firewood in the yard.

Teacher Shen is not like them. Educated people are very particular.

"Then I'll carry firewood here next year."

Shen Shuyu wrapped up the biscuits, melon seeds, and peanuts in a cloth, and put in two steamed buns. "Take these."

The brother and sister looked at each other and ran away. They ran so fast that they bumped into Gu Jiandong who had just returned.

Gu Jiandong caught the child who was about to fall and said, "Run slower."

Chen Sheng looked up at Gu Jiandong, said sorry, and quickly ran back.

The two children ran away and looked back at Gu Jiandong.

Chen Meini whispered to her brother, "Brother, the uncle who helped you just now is Teacher Shen's man. He is very powerful and is the leader of the group."

Chen Sheng watched Gu Jiandong walk away from afar and said firmly, "I will also join the army in two years."

By joining the army, I can defend my country and give my sister a good life.

"But being a soldier is hard and dangerous." As siblings, even though Chen Meini is still young, she can guess what her brother is thinking.

My brother did it for her and wanted her to live a good life.

The eighth grandfather in their village was also a soldier, but when he came back, he was carried back by others and had to rely on crutches to walk.

"Brother is amazing. He can protect himself."

When Gu Jiandong got home, he saw two more bundles of firewood and said with a smile, "Those two kids are carrying more firewood?"

"You knew it was a child?" Shen Shuyu only found out today at home that it was Chen Meini and her brother who were carrying firewood here.

"When I came back, I asked the guard at the gate, and he said two children had come in carrying firewood."

Shu Yu had told him about it the day before yesterday, but he was too busy at the moment and didn't think of asking the guard.

Chen Meini was studying at a school for children of military personnel. She would usually come to the family compound to play with her classmates. The guards would only let the two children in if they had seen Chen Meini. Otherwise, the guards would not let anyone in if they were strangers.

With her parents-in-law around, Shen Shuyu had a lot of free time. When she had no classes, she would go up the mountain with a few sisters-in-law to dig wild vegetables and bring back a few bundles of firewood.

The firewood she picked up were all large logs, and only she could bring these logs back.

Shen Shuyu had previously transplanted wild yam roots into the space for planting. Now they are growing well and are edible. Every time he goes down the mountain, Shen Shuyu will take out one or two roots, saying that he dug them up on the mountain.

Gu Changfeng and Su Yueru both love to eat this thing, and they couldn't stop smiling when they saw the yam.

"Mom, we can't finish it all at once. Why don't we dry it into yam slices? After it's dried, you can take it back to the Northwest. Just take it out and cook it when you want to eat it."

Every time Shen Shuyu came back, she would take three or four sticks, all of which were big and could not be finished in one go.

It is best to dry it in the sun.

"Okay, I'll slice it and dry it tomorrow." Once it's dried, it can be kept for a long time and you can eat it whenever you want.
