The mother of the era is reborn to support her cannon fodder children!

Chapter 129 "The Reporter"

Lin Zhao noticed Yun Jin's movements and raised an eyebrow slightly.

Song Yunjin's eyes lit up as if she had captured something extraordinary, and she snapped another photo.

"..."

Lin Zhao slid over and asked curiously, "Yun Jin, what do you want to do in the future?"

Song Yunjin is much more strategic than his brother. "I want to be a reporter!" he said without hesitation.

"A reporter?" Lin Zhao asked in surprise. "Why do you want to be a reporter?"

"I just want to." Song Yunjin couldn't explain why.

He had wanted to be a journalist for a long time.

"Alright." Lin Zhao didn't press further, and said with a smile, "The day you realize your dream, I'll give you a high-end camera."

Song Yunjin's eyes lit up in disbelief, "Sister, are you serious? I'm really serious!"

"Of course it's true," Lin Zhao said nonchalantly.

She has a lot of good stuff in her storage ring, which could be sold for a lot of money. Not to mention the lottery wheel with points and a chance to win a camera in the next few years.

"Sister, you really are my sister, I will try my best!" Song Yunjin was so excited that her face turned red.

Lin Zhao smiled slightly and slid far away.

She was slender and tall, her gliding posture was relaxed and graceful, flowing smoothly, and she was beautiful and eye-catching.

Song Yunjin chased after him, snapping photos non-stop.

When Gu Chenghuai first saw his wife ice skating, his gaze remained fixed on Lin Zhao.

Zhao Zhao, so bright and elegant, truly captivated his heart.

He approached Lin Zhao.

A handsome young couple appeared on camera.

Song Yunjin got excited and started taking pictures from different angles.

Noticing his movements, Lin Zhao turned her eyes slightly and leaned against Gu Chenghuai. The man lowered his head and looked at her tenderly, while she raised the corners of her mouth and looked at the camera lens.

This scene was frozen in time.

Lin Zhao grabbed Gu Chenghuai's wrist and pulled him toward the twins.

The man was tall and handsome, and the woman was graceful and charming. Even from behind, they looked perfectly matched. Song Yunjin snapped another photo.

Once Lin Zhao and her family of four were all in the frame, two group photos were taken.

perfect!

Song Yunjin held the camera and smiled foolishly.

An hour passed quickly.

Yu Bao and Heng Bao were still reluctant to leave. Other children would have stayed on the ground and refused to get up long ago, but although they were reluctant to leave, they didn't make a fuss and obediently slid towards Lin Zhao.

"Mom, can we come again next time? I love ice skating!" Hengbao boldly asked.

"Sure, I'll bring you again if I have the chance," Lin Zhao said with a smile, gently rubbing the baby's soft cheeks.

If it's not closed, come again; she really enjoys playing.

"Mommy is the best!" Hengbao snuggled in Lin Zhao's arms, his happy smile reaching the sky.

After removing their roller skates, Lin Zhao and the others walked out of the stadium.

"Mom, I'm hot. Can I have another ice cream?" Yu Bao saw the ice cream vendor, licked his lips, and looked up at Lin Zhao.

"If the kids eat too much cold food, their tummy will hurt. Can I buy you some soda?"

Yu Bao smiled and agreed, "Okay."

He's a thoughtful little boy. Feeling that we'd spent a bit too much money today, he offered, "Mom, buy one bottle so my brother and I can share it."

Hengbao had no objection, "Okay."

"Okay." Lin Zhao agreed without hesitation. It's not good for kids to drink too much soda, so it's reasonable for the two brothers to share it.

Gu Chenghuai took a long stride and went to buy soda.

When the bottle needed to be returned, the shop assistant generously offered to return it before they closed, given Commander Gu's gleaming officer's ID.

The bottle of soda that was bought on the day of the movie was returned by Lin Zhao the next morning.

On the way, Lin Zhao and his group held soda in their hands and took sips from time to time, making them quite conspicuous.

Some of the children saw this and looked on with envy.

The twins had bright smiles.

She glanced at Lin Zhao and Gu Chenghuai, smiled, glanced at them again, smiled again, each smile sweeter than the last.

Lin Zhao noticed that they were laughing and asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?"

Yu Bao leaned her little head against her mother's arm and looked up at her, saying, "Mom is so good."

“Mom is so good to us!” Hengbao said.

"That's good." Lin Zhao thought her son was so easy to please.

“Very good, very good,” Yu Bao said, her eyes bright and full of dependence on her mother.

Lin Zhao rubbed the twins' heads, looked at Gu Chenghuai, and smiled at him.

The father deserves a lot of credit.

He supports the whole family, so she doesn't have to worry about anything.

Don't the other mothers in the village want to be good to their children? They just don't have the means to.

The men couldn't earn money, so the women had to earn work points themselves. They were exhausted and didn't have much money left, so they were powerless to do anything for their children.

“Your father is great too. Everything you eat and use is earned through his hard work.”

The twins then approached their father and took Gu Chenghuai's hand.

"Whether it's my dad or my mom, they are the best!" Hengbao said proudly.

Yu Bao nodded in agreement.

Correct!
Gu Chenghuai looked down at his two children, his face expressionless, but a smile flashed in his eyes.

Lin Zhao went to the photo studio, picked up the photos she had previously developed, and gave the new roll of film and money to the photographer.

"This is a new roll of film. Could you please develop it as well? Thank you."

The master craftsman: "..."

The experienced craftsman glanced at the film rolls on the table with a complicated expression, waved his hand, and didn't want to say anything.

Young people don't know how hard it is to make money!
"Yu Bao, Heng Bao, it's time to go." Lin Zhao reminded them to leave as her sons looked around.

"Hey!" A clear, sweet voice rang out.

The experienced craftsman noticed there were two more children, and his gaze lingered on the twins' faces for a moment.

Catching his surprised look, Hengbao said without any hesitation, "My brother and I are twins. Grandpa, do you know what twins are? It means that when my brother and I were in Mom's belly, we lived in a little house and came out together."

The experienced worker was stunned.

Lin Zhao: "..."

The Song brothers suppressed a laugh.

"Hengbao, what kind of nonsense is this?" Song Yuncheng asked with a smile. "Who told you this?"

"Grandma, what?" Hengbao raised his eyebrows, looking both cute and fierce.

Why are you laughing! Kids have pride too.

"Nothing, nothing," Song Yuncheng said, indicating that he didn't dare to provoke him.

Hengbao looked away and continued talking to the old photographer, "Grandpa, what are you doing?"

His eyes were glued to the old craftsman's movements, brimming with curiosity. "Hengbao, are you coming back or not?" Lin Zhao asked, both amused and exasperated, seeing her son so eager for the old craftsman's livelihood. "If you keep dawdling, we're leaving."

Some experienced workers don't like laymen asking so many questions.

Hengbao was curious about the old master's work, but he cared more about being with his family, so he quickly said, "I'm going back, I'm going back."

Before leaving, he said to the old master, "Grandpa, my name is Gu Zhiheng, and my nickname is Hengbao. I'll come to play with you again when I have the chance."

Lin Zhao: "..."

Song Yunjin covered her mouth and laughed, bumping her brother's shoulder. "Brother, don't you think Hengbao and my sister are just like that? Our sister was like that when she was little too, she could chat with anyone."

Song Yuncheng thought so too, muttering, "I knew it looked familiar, but you pointed it out and I realized what it was."

The experienced photographer didn't mind Hengbao's talkativeness; he found the child quite amusing. Seeing his confident demeanor, his serious face relaxed, and he said, "Okay."

Hengbao was satisfied and said with a smile, "Grandpa, I'll head back now. We'll talk again another day."

After saying that, he waved to the old master photographer and then left the photo studio.

The twins liked being led by Lin Zhao, the two children walking hand in hand with their mother, one on each side.

We walked quite a distance.

Lin Zhao asked, "Hengbao, do you want to learn photography? Why did you ask so many questions just now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Chenghuai and the others all turned their attention to little Gu Zhiheng.

Hengbao laughed heartily, "I don't want to learn. I'm just curious about what that grandpa is doing. If he thinks I'm smart and clever and is willing to teach me some skills, I might as well learn."

"I'm so smart, I can learn anything." He was very confident, holding his chin high.

The corners of Lin Zhao's mouth twitched.

My son, you're so thoughtful!

But Yu Bao still said, "My little brother is smart and can learn everything."

Hengbao leaned forward, looking at his older brother through Lin Zhao, and said, "Brother is better than me!"

"Why are you learning that?" Lin Zhao asked him.

Hengbao stood up straight. "My grandpa said it's always good to have many skills. If you learn them well, you'll never have to worry about the future."

This is also true.

Lin Zhao praised, "Then do your best."

It's not surprising that kids have different ideas all the time.

Hengbao was greatly encouraged, "Okay! I will study hard!"

“You love learning everything, why don’t you learn photography from your mother?” Song Yunjin held up the camera in her hand.

"I'm still young. Cameras are so expensive. What if I break them? If I break them, we won't have a camera at home. I'll learn when I'm ten." Hengbao spoke eloquently, his words full of reason.

The way Yun Jin's uncle looked at her was like he was looking at an idiot.

Song Yunjin didn't notice and said, "...Okay."

Chatting and laughing, the group returned to the textile factory's residential building.

Qianbao and Yaobao sat on the steps downstairs, one holding a small ball and the other a cloth tiger, their chubby chins propped up as they looked towards the door. Uncle Song held up a black umbrella to shield them from the sun.

Upon seeing Lin Zhao, Yao Bao suddenly pouted, and large tears streamed down her cheeks.

"Mother." That voice was so soft and sweet, so full of grievance.

The little dumpling slid down the steps and ran towards Lin Zhao.

Gu Chenghuai quickly stepped forward to hug his daughter, but Yaobao pushed him away with her little arms, opened her arms to her mother, her little face full of grievance, and made a cry like a little animal.

She is more attached to her mother than her father.

Lin Zhao knelt down, picked up Yao Bao, and gently coaxed her, "When did you wake up? Why are you crying?"

Yao Bao rested her head on Lin Zhao's neck, her arms tightly wrapped around her neck with great force, but she didn't say a word, her round back of her head seemed angry.

Lin Zhao patted her daughter's head and sighed with a smile, "She's upset with her mother and won't even look at me anymore."

Hearing this, Yao Bao's white, jade-like little ears twitched. She glanced at her mother cautiously, then buried her face back down.

"Is baby really ignoring mommy?" Lin Zhao patted her daughter's back, then hugged Qianbao again. Quiet children are easily overlooked, so she tried her best to treat everyone equally and not ignore Qianbao's emotions just because he wasn't making a fuss.

"Qianbao, your father and I saw that you and your sister were sleeping soundly, so we went out for a walk and also went to pick up some photos. Are you angry now?"

Qianbao shook his head and said in a childish voice, "I'm not angry."

He tugged at his little sister's hand, his face serious, "Baby, you can't ignore Mommy."

Just as Hengbao listens to Yubao, Yaobao also listens to her older brother. She raised her head, her eyes bright as if sprinkled with fresh rain, and said, "Mommy is bad, she doesn't call me Bao!"

The voice was both soft and crisp, and I was very angry.

Lin Zhao was overwhelmed by her daughter's cuteness and said, "I called her, but Yaobao was asleep and didn't hear me."

Yao Bao moved her mouth, but couldn't think of a rebuttal. Her chubby, adorable little face was completely blank.

Suddenly, she hummed twice, turned her head, rested her face on her mother's shoulder, and laughed.

"It's hot downstairs, let's go upstairs first." Uncle Song breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhao Zhao return.

Gu Chenghuai reached out to Qianbao, who opened his arms and was carried upstairs by his father.

After arriving home, the twins played with their older brothers.

Uncle Song quietly pointed at Qianbao and Yaobao and said, "Zhaozhao, both of your kids have quite the tempers."

"Really?" Lin Zhao didn't think so. "They're very well-behaved at home."

Uncle Song shook his head.

“After they woke up, your aunt said that you and Chenghuai took Yubao and Hengbao out. They immediately got out of bed, put on their shoes and walked out. We couldn’t stop them. They insisted on sitting on the steps on the first floor to wait for you. I told them to wait in the shade, but they didn’t want to. They are so stubborn. They are not like you at all.”

Even when Zhao Zhao was angry, she wouldn't make things difficult for herself.

"I didn't know that. They're very easy to take care of at home, I don't have to worry about them much." Lin Zhao realized that the twins were quite stubborn, which was really cute.

Aunt Song liked the two children and spoke well of them, saying, "They're such little kids, that's how it is when they're in a new place. If they don't cry or make a fuss, they're considered well-behaved."

I always love my own child no matter how I look at him.

After she finished speaking, she went to the kitchen to cook.

Lin Zhao followed to help.

"Zhao Zhao, go inside and keep Qian Bao and Yao Bao company. I'll take care of everything. It'll be ready soon." Aunt Song was afraid that Lin Zhao would get her new clothes dirty, so she didn't let her help.

"It's okay, it's just a bit stuffy in the house. I wanted to talk to my aunt." Lin Zhao took her aunt's arm and smiled sweetly.

Aunt Song also wanted to ask Zhao Zhao something, "Then put on your apron. You're dressed so nicely, be careful not to get oil on your face."

The outfit Lin Zhao wore, which Gu Chenghuai bought, didn't look cheap, which is why Aunt Song said that.

"it is good."

There weren't many people in the kitchen yet, so it didn't feel crowded when Lin Zhao and her aunt went in.

"Zhaozhao, tell me about your sister Xiangxiang. I heard from Yuncheng that she has a boyfriend. What's the situation with her boyfriend?" Aunt Song asked directly.

“My sister has a boyfriend, the younger brother of my colleague. He’s 28 this year, a retired soldier, and works in a transportation team. He’s a permanent employee. His parents are gone. Besides my sister, he also has a younger sister. She’s not married yet and they’re currently looking for a match…” Lin Zhao told her aunt the basic information.

Aunt Song listened carefully to the whole thing.

She stated, "These conditions are good. If the young man is good, Xiangxiang's future will be bright."

As for having leg problems? So what? If there weren't any issues, Xiangxiang wouldn't be in this situation. It's not that she looks down on her own child, it's just that their circumstances aren't a good match.

Lin Zhao smiled and said, "He's a good person. I've met him once and heard some things about him. He's clear-headed and values ​​Sister Xiangxiang quite a bit. If things really work out, he should be pretty good."

Aunt Song skillfully cooked the dishes and said confidently, "You have a good eye; if you say it's not bad, it definitely isn't!"

"Is your aunt very happy?"

Lin Zhao washed and tidied up the things on the table. "I'm so happy, so incredibly happy."

Thinking of Xiangxiang's scumbag ex-fiancé, she asked, "Auntie, I heard that my uncle was going to teach Xiangxiang's scumbag ex-fiancé a lesson. Has he done it?"
