Reborn before the famine, kicking away the scumbag's family and living a carefree life.

22. Scoring

Su Jinru's learning to read really had nothing to do with Qi Zhengyang. He never paid attention to her or cared about what she did every day. Otherwise, he wouldn't have died without knowing that she could read.

Su Jinru's ability to read is not only due to what she learned in literacy classes, but also because she learned alongside the children while checking their homework, and her love of reading plays a significant role in her success.

She couldn't explain any of this to Jin Gui all at once.

If it weren't for his connection with Qi Zhengyang, it would be highly unlikely that someone could learn so many characters and write them so neatly just by attending a few literacy classes.

So she could only nod and say, "Yes, my ability to read is related to Qi Zhengyang."

That being said, Su Jinru's ability to read and write is not entirely unrelated to Qi Zhengyang. If Qi Zhengyang hadn't looked down on Su Jinru for being uneducated, Su Jinru might not have studied so intensely.

As a result, Su Jinru regarded learning as her life goal. She could only feel at ease through continuous learning; otherwise, she would feel abandoned and eliminated.

In her previous life, Su Jinru was over ninety years old and still knew how to use a smartphone to shop online and make payments via mobile phone.

Jin Gui immediately made the decision.

"From now on, you will be in charge of the team's scorekeeping duties."

For an illiterate person, the job of a scorekeeper is difficult, but for a literate person, it is an easy job.

It's much easier than doing manual labor every day!

Su Jinru had already solved the problem of having enough to eat, and didn't want to go back to work and do heavy physical labor to earn work points, as that was meaningless to her. But if she didn't work, she wouldn't get work points, and without work points, she wouldn't have food or money. If she didn't work and didn't have food to eat, she wouldn't be able to explain this to others.

Just like corrupt officials in later generations, they were charged with the crime of having unexplained sources of wealth.

She couldn't let others know the secret of her space, so she still had to go to work.

Although these physical tasks were nothing to her, she wasn't a masochist, so why force herself to endure hardship?

Therefore, if you have no choice but to work, being a scorekeeper and suffering less hardship is naturally the best option.

The next day at work, Jin Gui gave Su Jinru a notebook and a pen to record her daily work situation.

Su Jinru became a scorekeeper with a leisurely job, which aroused envy and jealousy.

Li Meili, in particular, felt a burning resentment in her heart. Why was Su Jinru so detestable?

They used to be superior to her because her in-laws protected her. Now that she's divorced, shouldn't she be living a miserable life, hiding in a corner and crying secretly? But she's not. Instead, she's much more high-profile than before, and she's even built a big house and is now the scorekeeper.

The scorekeeper's work points were not high, not as high as those of a strong laborer, but they were not low among ordinary people. Many women worked hard all day and still did not earn as many work points as a scorekeeper.

Therefore, many women envied the job of scorekeeper, but at that time, very few people were literate. Being able to recognize a few characters or even one's own name was considered quite good, and those who could write were extremely rare.

So Li Meili was jealous, but there was nothing she could do, because she herself was illiterate. Even though she had attended a few literacy classes, she only knew her own name, and she couldn't write it properly.

Feeling resentful, Li Meili couldn't help but run up to Qi Zhengyang and complain.

"That Su Jinru, she learned a few words from you and became the team's scorekeeper. Just looking at her smug face makes me angry."

Qi Zhenglin: "You! She became the scorekeeper because she can read and write. What's there to be angry about?"

Li Meili: "She can read, but it was Zhengyang who taught her. After he taught her, she got a divorce and took all of Zhengyang's money. She's ungrateful. Also, what's her relationship with Jin Gui? Why is he so biased towards her? Their relationship is definitely not ordinary."

Qi Zhengyang felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.

At the end of the literacy class, the teacher who taught Su Jinru praised her extensive literacy skills.

At that time, team leader Jin Gui said that Su Jinru should be the team's scorekeeper.

Now Su Jinru has actually been made the scorekeeper.

This Jin Gui is so protective and caring towards Su Jinru!

In his past life, Qi Zhengyang didn't pay any attention to Su Jinru, so he didn't notice anything about her and didn't realize that this precious woman was taking such good care of her.

Qi Zhengyang had a weakness that Su Jinru had in her hands, so even though he suspected that Su Jinru and Jin Gui had something going on, he didn't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction. He knew that Li Meili was a brainless woman who liked to gossip and would only make things more complicated.

Furthermore, Qi Zhengyang never taught Su Jinru to read. Even when he held literacy classes, he deliberately avoided teaching her class.

He knew the level of students taught in literacy classes. Su Jinru had a large vocabulary, which must have been learned secretly in her previous life.

Qi Zhengyang didn't take it seriously. She could only recognize and write a few words. In his mind, she was still an illiterate woman who had never been to school. Even if she had lived through a lifetime, she was still a stupid woman with little wisdom.

However, she has changed a lot in this life. Perhaps she thought she was reborn, so she became arrogant and became shrewish and bold.

As a divorced woman, she already faces criticism. She built a house and now she's become the team's scorekeeper. In this day and age, isn't she afraid of being targeted for criticism for being so high-profile?

Fortunately, they got divorced; otherwise, if she continued acting like this, she would eventually get herself into trouble and implicate him.

However, we must also prevent Li Meili and Su Jinru from having conflicts or disagreements.

Because Li Meili said that he taught Su Jinru to read, if Su Jinru heard Li Meili say this, who knows what she would say.

Li Meili also said that Jin Gui and Su Jinru had an unusual relationship. If she told Su Jinru this, it would be like stirring up a hornet's nest, and the trouble would eventually come back to him. Su Jinru thought that he had asked Li Meili to say it.

He has something on Su Jinru that she can use against him!

Qi Zhengyang said with a stern face, "Sister-in-law, didn't you promise me that you wouldn't hold a grudge against Su Jinru anymore? From now on, don't interfere in her affairs, and don't mention her in front of others."

"Zhengyang, you're protecting her so much, does that mean you still have feelings for her? If that's the case, why don't you two remarry?"

Li Meili knew that Qi Zhengyang disliked Su Jinru, so she deliberately provoked him like this.

Qi Zhenglin also advised, "Yes! Seeing you all alone now makes me feel bad. If you still have feelings for Su Jinru, then go and remarry her!"
