A jinx, me? But I bring good fortune to my whole family!

【Warm and sweet baby, you're a great older brother!】

Little Green was shocked. "How focused must one be? Completely ignoring everything outside!"

Nuannuan frowned and muttered softly, "Big brother will definitely be fine."

The women found it uninteresting and left.

"That's five dollars, you guys are really willing to part with it?"

"What's there to be reluctant about? Think about how much a radio costs. If it could still be repaired, would they have just thrown it away?"

"That's true!"

"Then you two are guaranteed to make a profit! Oh dear, if we had known this would happen, we would have joined in too!"

As the sound faded into the distance, Su Xiulan's heart clenched tightly.

But thinking about the money in my hand, I'm not worried anymore.

Anyway, with the safety net, it's not a big deal even if we lose.

But she believed in her son.

Nuan Nuan stayed by her older brother's side the whole time, and even Xiao An looked worried.

Even after dinner, when it was quite dark, Da'an was still studying his radio.

Nuannuan also took some time to go online, and Little Green and Little Gold returned to their original sizes, but their colors changed.

Little Jin looks shiny and golden; someone who didn't know better might think it was made of gold.

The leaves of the little green plant are so green they're almost black, and so glossy, they're even more beautiful than the finest jade.

There was a large pile of snakeskins not far away. Nuannuan went over to take a look and saw that they were shed by Uncle Black Snake. The little girl crumpled them up and put them aside; this stuff might be able to be sold for money.

Xiao Hei has also changed a lot. Its fur is black, the bald spots have long since grown back, and its two black bean eyes look more spirited.

【Warm and cozy baby!】

Xiao Hei's voice still sounded like an old man's, but it was much more coherent than before.

As for that vigorous spinach, it sprouted three or four more leaves, thick and glossy green.

[After your older brothers ate it last time, it was only temporary.]

To become a true Hercules, you need to eat a whole one, root and all.

Nuannuan nodded, seemingly understanding, "Could you grow more?"

Little Green nearly split his legs upon hearing this. "This is a divine creature; it's very difficult to breed."

Forget about it.

Nuannuan was in a dilemma, "Can't I keep the roots?"

If it has roots, it might sprout again.

However, we'll have to wait for it to fully exert its effects.

……

Su Xiulan and Gu Jianguo were also discussing their trip to the forest farm tomorrow. Gu Jianguo was now able to get out of bed with support, and with proper exercise, he would definitely recover.

"The work at the logging camp involves carrying logs, it's definitely not easy. If the snow weren't so deep, they wouldn't have hired people temporarily. Take the two kids and give it a try tomorrow, but don't force yourself."

Su Xiulan gently massaged his legs, saying with concern, "I know, just stay home and rest. We'll do what we can."

"It can't carry big logs, but it can carry two small ones."

"However, that's hard work, and I don't know if the two of them are willing to take him in as a godchild."

Actually, she felt a little reluctant, after all, it was her own child.

"Let's go take a look. The brigade leader thinks highly of us, that's why he told us. If the children don't want to go, just take them there to broaden their horizons."

The next morning, before dawn, Su Xiulan got up to cook.

Since we're taking the kids to the forest farm today, we need to eat something quickly so we can get there sooner.

Those three positions are coveted by people from all around; there must be many who want them.

"Ah, this is..."

Upon seeing what was in the corner, Su Xiulan screamed in surprise.

That shout woke up everyone in the room.

Nuannuan rubbed her eyes and ran off the kang (a heated brick bed).

Gu Jianguo grabbed her arm, saying, "It's so cold outside, put on some clothes before you go down."

"Xiulan? What happened?"

Su Xiulan rushed in, carrying two things in her hands.

"Look what this is? Honey, am I dreaming?"

Su Xiulan still can't believe it. She really just glanced at it by accident, and now there are two brand new iron pots where the broken pot was yesterday.

Just like it came out of the oven.

Su Xiulan's hands were trembling. She had looked at it several times. There was no rust, no holes, nothing at all. It was as good as new.

There wasn't even a trace of welding; this pot seemed to be born perfect, even better than the ones from the supply and marketing cooperative.

"An iron pot?"

Gu Jianguo was also startled. Nuannuan went over with a smile, tapped the iron pot with her little hand, and said, "Mom, Nuannuan said yesterday that Guoguo was just sick and that he would be fine once he got better."

"Isn't Nikki incredibly amazing?"

Su Xiulan...

She couldn't hold back any longer and knelt down with a thud, bowing repeatedly towards the west, muttering, "Thank you, Bodhisattva! Thank you for bringing my little lucky star to my home."

Da'an and Xiao'an also woke up, and neither of them could believe it.

Xiao An even ran outside to look, and seeing the scattered pieces of mud on the ground, she asked tremblingly, "Are these the two pots my sister and I made yesterday?"

Su Xiulan nodded solemnly, and Gu Jianguo also realized what was going on. He instructed the children, "Don't tell anyone about this. If they ask, just say we just bought it."

"But we can't use two, let's put the other one away for now."

Nuannuan obediently put one away, her eyes practically sparkling with excitement. "Can I exchange this for money?"

Su Xiulan looked at her daughter, both amused and exasperated, and said, "Of course you can."

The iron pots at the supply and marketing cooperative cost 28 yuan each, but the one I have is of better quality and I estimate it should cost at least 30 or 40 yuan.

She couldn't resist hugging Nuannuan and showering her little face with kisses. "If anyone ever calls you a jinx again, I'll tear their mouth off!"

"This is clearly our family's lucky star!"

Nuannuan laughed heartily, "Mom, last time you almost tore Auntie's mouth apart!"

Su Xiulan felt a sharp pang of bitterness in her heart. Thinking of the suffering Nuannuan had endured in the past, she wished she could tear that woman to pieces again.

"Alright, hurry up and cook, aren't we going to the forest farm later?"

Su Xiulan slapped her forehead, "I got so excited I forgot! I'll go do it right now!"

"I'll just make something quick this morning, something simple enough. When we get back from the forest, Mom will make you some meat."

Nuannuan clapped her hands excitedly, "Time to eat meat!"

The little girl loves eating meat the most; she misses it if she doesn't eat it for a day.

Da'an started fiddling with his radio again, and Su Xiulan glanced at him but didn't urge him.

The room was quiet until suddenly, a crackling sound came from the inner room. The sound was exceptionally loud, followed by a soaring tenor voice that pierced through the curtains and drifted into the courtyard…

"Xiulan, do you remember the bet we made yesterday? Hurry up and give me five dollars."

Aunt Zhang from next door was leaning over the wall, and before she could finish speaking, she heard a loud singing voice.
