If you don't consummate the marriage for three years and then marry a successful educated youth

"I'm sorry for taking up so much time. Are you hungry? I'll go cook some dishes now. The porridge and steamed buns are already heated up, so we can eat soon."

Lin Fengjiao said as she went into the kitchen and started working.

After he finishes breakfast, I will dress the twins, brush their teeth and wash their faces, and get them ready to sit down and eat. Only then will I have time to sit down and eat a bite myself.

The twins were laughing and playing when Lin Fengjiao tapped the table with her chopsticks and called out, "Alright, stop making a fuss. Hurry up and finish eating so you can go play with the other kids in the courtyard."

"I need to tidy up the house and prepare and apply medicine. I don't have time to play around at home with you all. Go out and play, understand?"

Congcong's eyes darted around: "Mom, the kids in the compound don't play with us unless we have candy. Can you buy us some candy?"

"Mom, please say yes or no. Mom is the best and most beautiful. We love Mom the most."

Lin Fengjiao was delighted by these words, and couldn't help but smile: "Yes, if you behave, I'll buy you whatever you want; if you're naughty, you won't get anything."

"I'll take you to buy candy later, just the cheapest fruit hard candy, don't buy White Rabbit candy, it's too expensive, your dad works hard to earn money."

The twins exchanged a glance and nodded obediently, "Okay, Mom, we'll listen to you."

"Eat up, and I'll clean up and take you there."

Half an hour later, after tidying up the kitchen, Lin Fengjiao opened the drawer, intending to take money to buy candy for the children, but found the drawer empty. She frowned slightly: "Strange, why is there no money?"

Congcong came closer, stood on tiptoe, and clung to the edge of the table, blinking his innocent eyes: "Mom, Dad said he'll only give you thirty yuan a month, so you should be careful with your money."

"You took it all when you went home. What are we going to do now that we have no money? If we don't have any candy, no one will play with us."

Lin Fengjiao felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this. Wasn't this restricting her spending money? Oh well, she'd just pay for it herself first.

"...Okay, I'll go get the money. You guys wait for me."

A few minutes later, he led one child to the supply and marketing cooperative, bought a pound of fruit hard candy, grabbed a small handful for each of them, stuffed them into their pockets, and instructed them, "Go and play with the children in the compound."

"Remember, don't give them all the candy at once, otherwise they won't want to play with you after they've eaten it all. If you want to play something, you have to use candy to get them to play, understand?"

"Go on, Mother has to go upstairs to get busy."

The twins nodded repeatedly: "Okay, Mother, we understand."

Mingming pointed and said, "Mom, I want more glass beads. They all have them, and we want to play with them too. Please buy us a few, Mom."

"Okay, I'll buy it."

Lin Fengjiao, with a stern face, led them into the courtyard, beckoned to the children, and gave each of them a piece of candy: "Here's some candy for you, but you have to help your aunt take care of your little brother, okay?"

The child looked at the candy in his palm, pouted, and said with some disdain, "Auntie, we want to eat soft White Rabbit milk candy, we don't want to eat this hard and unpalatable one."

"Oh, you're getting picky now. If you don't want to eat it, then give it back to me."

Seeing him take a step back, she said somewhat awkwardly, "Fine, if you want to eat, then so be it. It's just taking care of your little brother. We'll play with them too."

Lin Fengjiao hummed in agreement and patted the twins' heads: "You two play here, Mom will go upstairs to tidy up the house. If you're tired, go home and sleep, okay?"

"If anyone bullies you, come find me. Let's play."

He turned around and went upstairs. He stood in the corridor for a few minutes and watched the children having fun. Then he turned around and went into the house.

I didn't finish cleaning until around 10 o'clock, and I was so tired that my back ached.

Lin Fengjiao glanced at the time and screamed, "Ahhh! I still have to go brew the medicine, and I haven't even applied the ointment to my face. It's so annoying. I feel much more at ease when I'm at home."

I hurriedly brewed the medicine, then applied the green ointment to my face. After it was absorbed, I washed it off, applied scar removal cream, and it took about a month to completely heal.

A series of loud bangs sounded at the door.

When she opened the door, the twins were wailing. Looking up and seeing her green face, they shuddered and started hiccuping: "Ghost, ghost! Hiccup~~~"

Lin Fengjiao reached out to pull them, but they dodged her, and she said impatiently, "Why are you back at this hour? Didn't I tell you to play downstairs a little longer? I'll call you when the food is ready."

Congcong sobbed, "Mommy, there's a glass bead in my tummy, boohoo, I'm so scared, am I going to die?"

"My older brothers and sisters said that we would die if we did this."

"...What? What's going on?"

A seven or eight-year-old child ran up, poked his head out, and said, "Auntie, your clever little one, I wonder which one ate a marble?"

"Won't I die if it gets into my stomach? I've already told them to just put it in their mouths, play with it for a bit, and then spit it out. How could they just swallow it? How stupid!"

Lin Fengjiao's pupils shrank upon hearing this: "What? Which of you ate a marble? Speak up!"

The twins were so frightened that they cried loudly, having no idea which one had swallowed the marble. Their wailing carried far and wide, disturbing the neighbors.

"Hey, Mr. Shen, can you control your child? He's too noisy. We have a grandson who's not even a month old yet. This noise could easily frighten him. Can you please understand us?"

"...Okay, I understand, Auntie. I'll take the child inside now."

With a calm expression, she asked, "Thank you, doll. Did you see who ate the marbles just now, or did they eat both?"

She was already feeling anxious. Oh no, she had only been back for a day, and the child had already gotten into trouble. When Qingshu came back, she was afraid he would look terrible.

The child thought for a moment, looked at them, and shook his head: "I don't remember. They all look the same, and they wear the same clothes. How could I remember who ate them?"

"Auntie, you can ask them yourselves. How could they not know who ate the marbles?"

Lin Fengjiao thought about it and agreed. She grabbed the twins' arms and asked, "Don't be afraid. Think carefully about who ate the marble and told their mother that obedient children can eat peach shortbread."

Before long, Mingming raised her little hand and said, "Mom, I swallowed a marble. Don't tell Dad, or he'll spank me. I won't swallow it again."

"Okay, I'll take you to the hospital now. Take those medicines and you'll be able to poop out that marble. It's round and smooth, so it should be easy to poop out."

The twins sobbed, "But Mom, you're so ugly! We don't want to go to the hospital with you. They'll call you a green-haired turtle. You're so ugly!"

Lin Fengjiao's forehead veins throbbed, and she said impatiently, "Fine, I know, I'll go wash it off right now. There's never a moment of peace, it's so annoying."

"Hurry up and come in, what are you standing there for?"
