The male protagonist falls in love with me again

Chapter 113: The male protagonist of the sadistic article takes the imperial examination: No one can

The next morning, Li Xiaoyao was still immersed in a sweet dream, with a smile on his lips, as if he was having a beautiful dream.

However, at this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open with a creaking sound.

A figure rushed into the room, came to the bedside, and looked anxiously at the child on the bed.

When she saw Lin Qu lying quietly on the bed, her eyes couldn't help but become moist and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Hmm~" Li Xiaoyao moaned, her little mouth pouted, as if she felt the disturbance from the outside world, but she still hadn't fully woken up.

Lin Qu, who was standing next to him, heard his brother's voice and quickly hugged Li Xiaoyao tightly in his arms. He gently patted his brother's back with his little hands, trying to make him feel safe and comfortable.

With Lin Qu's comfort, Li Xiaoyao slowly fell into sleep again, and his breathing became steady and deep.

Lin Qu watched his brother fall asleep again and breathed a sigh of relief. Then he carefully raised his head and looked at the person standing beside the bed with his bright big eyes.

Old Mrs. Chen stood quietly by the bed, her eyes full of love and care. However, when her eyes met Lin Qu's, she felt a strong sense of blame.

Old Mrs. Chen looked at Lin Qu staring at her with an unhappy face, and her heart was full of doubts.

Was this child blaming her for almost waking up her grandson? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little funny.

She looked down at Lin Qu, her eyes full of love and tenderness.

She raised her hand and gently stroked Lin Qu's head, saying softly, "Qu'er, go back to sleep. Remember to take good care of your brother. Grandma is going out to cook."

Lin Qu nodded vigorously, his young face revealing a sense of determination and maturity.

"Grandma, don't worry, I will take good care of my brother."

Old Mrs. Chen was very pleased to see that Lin Qu was so sensible.

She quietly left the room, trying not to make any noise so as not to disturb the two children's rest.

At the same time, Lin Rou in the next room had already woken up and got up with her sister.

After she finished washing up, she followed the big girl and took the initiative to help with the housework.

Old Mrs. Chen took in all of Lin Rou's well-behaved behavior, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

Compared with the two boys, Mrs. Chen had much higher requirements for the girls. Not only did they have to get up early, but they also had to work non-stop like a top.

She felt that her conscience shone brighter than gold, so she neither beat nor scolded the maids in the house, but just asked them to do some work.

Most families in the village who gave birth to girls would either drown them in the icy river or give them away like garbage. Even if they raised them at home, they would be beaten and scolded like livestock, and it was common for them to not have enough to eat.

……

In the yard, Lin Rou looked at the busy girl and her heart was full of admiration.

She secretly made up her mind that she must be as hardworking and capable as Sister Da Niu so that she could marry into a good family.

So she also picked up the broom and started cleaning carefully.

Lin Rou was like a hardworking little bee. After sweeping the floor skillfully, she flew to the kitchen to find her aunt.

She looked at the busy Li and asked softly, as if a yellow oriole had just left the valley, "Aunt, is there anything I can help you with?"

Li was not polite either. She pointed at the vegetables on the stove and said with a smile, "Rou'er, can you help your aunt wash these vegetables?"

Lin Rou responded crisply: "Okay, aunt!"

After saying that, she rolled up her sleeves and washed the vegetables carefully like a well-trained soldier.

At this time, Old Mrs. Chen walked into the kitchen like a ghost, and looked at Lin Rou and several maids working. The corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

But when she turned around, she saw Zhang hiding behind the door and being lazy. Her originally calm face immediately became cloudy and her brows were tightly furrowed.

She shouted to Zhang with a serious face, "Second wife, what are you doing here? Go water the vegetable garden!"

When Zhang heard this, she felt a little reluctant, but she didn't dare to refute directly, and her eyes rolled around.

She gave a flattering smile and said to Old Chen in a gentle tone, "Mother, you see, I just got up. Besides, my youngest son will be up soon too. I have to go see if he's dressed."

After saying that, without waiting for Mrs. Chen to react, she quickly turned around and walked quickly towards her son's room.

As she walked, she muttered, "Oh my, my dear son, mother is here..."

Old Mrs. Chen looked at her daughter-in-law who didn't take her words to heart at all. Veins bulged on her forehead and her eyes were filled with anger and disappointment.

The second son’s wife is still like this. She will never change her bad habits.
