Chapter 470 - 471: Like Digging Coal

Chapter 470: Chapter 471: Like Digging Coal

Some other items were things that Song Wennuan thought looked good while shopping for her own daughter, so she bought an extra set and sent them from the Capital.

After a while, Zhou Zhaodi walked in and announced, "Children, dinner is ready, you can eat now!"

"Time to eat!" Chen Erbao immediately dropped the building blocks in his hand, cheered, and ran out.

They could finally eat their fill of meat!

The others followed closely, with Dani and Sanni dutifully helping to collect the building blocks.

Gu Tingyun leisurely led her little hamster to the kitchen to wash their hands.

Ma Xiulian had already prepared warm water, knowing that the two little ones always liked to be clean.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhaodi praised, "Tingyun and Guibao really do care about cleanliness and hygiene!"

The two of them played together all day, this was the affection of childhood sweethearts, and their feelings for each other would continue even after they got married.

Li Chunhua sneered, thinking it was pretentious. They were not daughters of a landlord’s family, yet they were making a fuss out of nothing and wasting firewood!

After they finished washing, Zhou Zhaodi said, "You two go to the table first. The water can be reused to let the other children wash their hands."

She then turned her head and shouted outside, "Dabao, Erbao, bring Liuni over to wash your hands!"

Hearing this, a few of the girls looked down at their hands and obediently followed suit.

Chen Erbao, however, remained motionless: He wasn’t a delicate girl worried about beauty!

The other boys took their cue from him, also sitting still on their stools.

Erni noticed a bar of soap by the washbasin and wanted to use it to wash her hands, she had never used it before!

However, Sanni stopped her: "That’s for Guibao to use!"

Dani also said, "Erni, you can’t use it, this soap is very expensive."

Erni pouted, unhappily washing her hands briefly before running out.

Seeing that the girls had finished washing while none of the boys had stepped up, Zhou Zhaodi shouted again, "Chen Erbao, if you don’t come in now, I’ll come and get you with a stick!"

Don’t they know anything about hygiene? Look at Tingyun and Guibao!

Only then, did Chen Erbao sheepishly come in. He knew too well that his mother was not joking when she said this, she was really willing to use force.

Once the boys started washing, the water immediately turned black.

Zhou Zhaodi looked on with undisguised displeasure, "Look at your hands, they’re as dirty as a coal miner’s!"

"All men’s hands are like this!" Chen Erbao declared, unashamed and even proud.

Hardly had he finished speaking, when a swift smack landed on his head from Zhou Zhaodi: "Always full of nonsense!"

Chen Erbao clutched his head in pain, immediately silenced. However, he was still unconvinced in his heart. He hadn’t said anything wrong!

The women served the food onto the table, and the children salivated at the smell of the meat.

The adults in the rooms seemed like hungry wolves, their eyes sparkling as they stared at the glistening meat, swallowing their saliva crazily.

Every weekend when they had a break, Ma Xiulian would invite some grandchildren over for a nutritious meal, but the adults did not have this good fortune.

After all, they had already separated households, it would be too much to go to a sibling’s house to mooch off their food and drink.

Li Chunhua, however, had no such qualms. She just didn’t dare to come by herself, for fear of being chased out by her mother-in-law with a broom.

She wanted to call Chen Jianye to come along for moral support, but he stubbornly refused. Now, he was literally green with envy as he watched the meat!

The second family was better, treating their sons and daughters equally. They were willing to share any good food with the whole family.

After all, if they couldn’t even get enough food, how could they have the energy to work and study!

Besides, studying uses up a lot of brain power.

She still hoped that Dabao and Erbao could study hard and make good money, so it was crucial to ensure they had enough nutrition!
