Zhulan touched her chin. The original body was really able to give birth. During the ten years of war, she didn’t delay giving birth. There were six of them, and if they gathered one, they would be able to have their own “Calabash Brother” team. (1)
In this family, the eldest is a boy who is twenty-one years old, and his brain is somewhat similar to the original body. He was not material for reading but was quite strong. Under the stick, he still mastered the Three Character Classic, Hundred Family Names, and Thousand Characters.
The eldest married early at the age of fifteen. He married Li Shi from a neighbouring village. After six years of marriage, she gave birth to three children, a five-year-old son, a three-year-old son, and a one-year-old daughter.
The second child was a boy, 20 years old, and a tragic baby. There was a brother who was one year older, and a sister who was one year younger. There was less attention in the middle, and his temperament was cunning. Smarter than the eldest, he didn’t get much attention. When he grew up, his temperament was determined, and he got married early. He married Zhao Shi and exchanged food for his wife. (2) They have a girl and another one is on the way.
Zhulan squinted her eyes, the second child was silent, his schemes were the biggest in the family.
The third child was 19 years old, and the eldest daughter married early and has two children.
Zhu Lan was silent, she was not only a naǐ nai but also a waì pó.(3)
The fourth was a boy, 14 years old and he is very shrewd. It is said that he was most like her deceased mother-in-law and was currently studying in a neighbouring school village.
The fifth was another boy, 11 years old, born in the new dynasty, and the youngest son. He had a good head for reading and was really spoiled in the family. His temperament was cold, and nothing in the world bothered him.
The sixth was the youngest daughter, seven years old. She got the best advantages from both parents. She has been used to being a little naive since she was a child. She was the original couple’s favourite child.
Zhulan’s brain hurts when she thought about it. She lived by herself in the modern age, and the whole family was quite well-to-do. Now she counts, except for the eldest daughter who married out, there are thirteen people in the family.
A few years ago was another disastrous year, and it was really impossible for everyone to have a full meal each time.
Zhulan stood up. She hadn’t washed yet. She washed according to memory and looked at the vague shadow in the basin. She was tall, only about one meter six, but she was very thin. If the last three children had not been separated by time, the original body would have died prematurely.
Now that she has taken over, she wants to live for a long time and make up for modern life.
After washing up, Zhulan met Zhao Shi, the second daughter-in-law who was obedient. To be honest, the original body didn’t like the second daughter-in-law that much, but she was never harsh to her.
On the contrary, the second daughter-in-law did not dare to breathe when she saw her and looked like she was about to cry. Every time she talked with the second daughter-in-law in the village, a rumour spread in the village that she was an evil mother-in-law.
But she can swear by heaven and earth, the original body had nothing but a cold face and ignored Zhao shi.
Zhulan looked at Zhao shi as if she was about to fall, clutching her stomach, her stomach hurts, this is the black lotus, high-level black, she can’t be provoked, she can only hide! (4)
Hiding from the second daughter-in-law, Zhulan observed the yard. The yard was built by pushing an old house. It was ten years old. When it was built, considering the number of children, she brought the house out.
There are two main rooms, three rooms on both sides, and the warehouses on both sides of the main room. From a distance, people look envious. Although it is not a blue brick house, it can be regarded as a landmark building in the village.
Zhulan looked at the yard and narrowed her eyes. Now she really wanted to go back to the main room to look through the money box. After a lot of memory, she realized that she had underestimated her original body!
