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

Back then, information wasn't readily available, and Yuan Wenjie would only call home once every month or even every two months to let them know he was safe.

In the fall, my second younger sister from my hometown wrote to say that DouDou had been admitted to the best university in the province.

In her previous life, DouDou was a genuine farmer.

Because of the extraordinary circumstances, there was no college entrance examination, and most people did not value education. As a result, DouDou dropped out of school early and stayed at home to farm.

In this life, Su Jinru values ​​the development of her children and constantly urges her sister to make sure the children go to school.

So while many of her peers dropped out of school to help their families earn work points, DouDou was still in school.

He was also quite lucky. The college entrance examination was reinstated a year before he graduated from high school, so he put in a lot of effort and got into university.

Although he only got into a university within the province, it was still quite good, as university graduates were highly sought after back then.

Su Jinru was naturally delighted to hear this good news, and she mailed three hundred yuan back to express her congratulations.

After graduating from university, Dou Dou was assigned to work in the county government of Nanyang County. He had the support of Jin Gui, and he was also capable and had strong work ability. He also caught up with the reform and opening up and economic development, and he made some achievements in economic development. Later, he became the county magistrate.

Of course this is a story for later.

As the Spring Festival approached, Su Jinru's second younger sister called to tell her that her daughter Er Ya was getting married.

Su Jinru told her sister that she would not be going back to attend Er Ya's wedding.

Although An Xin is a college student, she was invited by a radio station to do part-time work because she participated in several activities and performed outstandingly.

Therefore, Anxin is even busier on weekends and holidays.

It was inconvenient for Su Jinru to take her two children back to her hometown by herself and have to transfer several times.

More importantly, she had to stay at home, in case Yuan Wenjie called back and she missed the call.

She didn't want to miss any opportunity for Yuan Wenjie to call back.

He was fighting on the front lines, enduring so much hardship, shedding blood and sweat. He only managed to make one phone call home once in a long time, just to hear the voices of his family.

For Su Jinru, such a phone call was a profound comfort. For Yuan Wenjie, it was the warmth of family, strength, and solace.

Therefore, Su Jinru did not go back to attend Er Ya's wedding.

Su Jinru continues to plant, harvest, and sell medicinal herbs every day to save money.

She plans to buy enough courtyard houses for her four children, leaving one courtyard house for each child.

The courtyard house they live in now was the house where Yuan Wenjie's parents used to live.

Su Jinru plans to pass this courtyard house down to Ruochen as the ancestral home left by the Yuan family.

They bought new ones for the other three children.

Moreover, policies are getting better and better now, and people are starting to get property ownership certificates, so houses, as private property, have legal rights.

So Su Jinru kept inquiring about which family was selling their courtyard house.

After making inquiries from various sources, Su Jinru finally found out that a family was selling their courtyard house.

After a protracted negotiation, Su Jinru finally bought her second courtyard house in Beijing for 30,000 yuan.

This courtyard house is the same size and structure as the one they live in now.

However, the walls, doors, and windows inside are well preserved.

Moreover, the original homeowner left behind a lot of furniture, all of which were made of precious nanmu wood.

So even though this house was four thousand yuan more expensive than the previous one, Su Jinru felt like she had struck gold.

After entering university, An Xin diligently practiced her Mandarin, which became increasingly standard. Coupled with her sweet voice, she took a part-time job at a radio station, where many people liked her voice and she won praise from many listeners. The radio station invited An Xin to work for them after graduation.

An Xin also really likes this industry and promised to work at a radio station after graduation.

Anxin also took time to come back and supervise her younger siblings' studies, assigning them homework. The two children listened to their older sister's every word.

Even if their sister doesn't come home for a week, they will still diligently carry out the tasks assigned by her.

For example, how many poems to memorize or what books to read within a few days.

One day, An Xin came home and excitedly told Su Jinru, "Mom, I hired the best teacher in the country to teach Ruochen to draw."

"Ruochen has a talent for painting. If he can get guidance from a famous teacher, his painting skills will definitely improve greatly."

Su Jinru: "Really? Does he really have this talent? I watch him paint every day, but I don't know anything about painting, so I don't know what's so good about his paintings."

An Xin: "I didn't know anything before, but when I was a teacher on Qiongzhou Island, I learned some knowledge about art appreciation from a teacher who graduated from an art academy."

Su Jinru naturally knew that teacher. She was the wife of a soldier and a famous art teacher at an art academy. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she was willing to follow her husband to Qiongzhou Island and become an elementary school art teacher.

Su Jinru said, "Regardless of whether Ruochen has talent or not, he likes to draw, so we should support him. It's good to have a teacher to guide him. You can invite a teacher to our home to teach Ruochen, and I can pay the teacher according to the amount of money per lesson."

An Xin: "I've already reached an agreement with Teacher Qin. Every Sunday afternoon, Teacher Qin will come to my house to give Ruochen a one-hour lesson. I'll pay him fifteen yuan a month."

"Fifteen yuan, isn't that a bit too little?"

"Mom, fifteen yuan is a lot. I record two hours of audio every week, and I only get fifteen yuan a month."

"Okay! As long as Teacher Qin agrees, I'll pay the fifteen yuan."

"Anxin, you said Ruochen has a talent for painting, and I can support him in developing in this area. What about Ruoxi? What are her special skills?"

"Ruoxi's strength lies in her strong written expression skills, probably because she has loved reading since she was a child! Moreover, she has a rich imagination and a keen sense of language and context."

"You mean Ruoxi has the potential to become a writer in the future?"

"Yes! Her observation skills, imagination, and command of language are all essential abilities for a writer."

"Then how do we train her to bring out her strengths? Anxin, you know a lot of people, why don't you find a teacher for Ruoxi to give her some guidance?"

"Mom, Ruoxi doesn't need a teacher. Creative ability can't be taught by just one teacher. This ability can only be developed by reading a lot of books. There's an old saying: 'Read ten thousand books and your writing will flow like a god's.'"

Su Jinru nodded, "You mean to create more opportunities for her to read more storybooks, but there are very few storybooks available now."

An Xin suddenly seemed to remember something.

"I almost forgot, Luo Xingguo studied history, and he has many historical stories to tell!"
