Transmigrated & Triumphant: Defying Destiny's Chosen One-Chapter 471 - 33: Shi Suifeng Returns

Professor Zheng just couldn’t figure it out.

First of all, it’s only mid-month, how could the food tickets be all used up? He was busy asking questions, and it turns out, did his grandson get food so generously?

Ah, kids, they really can’t be relied on.

But it’s not Little Xuan’s fault either; it was his own fault for not explaining clearly beforehand. Better pay more attention next time.

Professor Zheng felt he had already reflected on himself, his character had been elevated, so he decided to leave it at that.

But secondly, just before the infrared detector was done, and during one meal time, there’s no more food tickets...

How distressing!

A single food ticket defeated a hero. Professor Zheng pondered over and over, looked at Little Xuan’s expression, and finally didn’t dare to suggest treating someone to a meal.

Ah, with what’s left, I’ll have to figure it out myself!

Professor Zheng returned to the office reluctantly.

Meanwhile, after leading a group of kids in a battle, Chu River looked at Little Xuan, eyes full of anticipation.

Little Xuan: ...

This gaze is so heavy, it’s a weight life cannot bear!

As a child, what else could he do?

At this moment, he could only pretend not to understand and avoid this gaze.

He thought: Adults all care about face. Once they see I’m not being proactive, they definitely have a clue. This also saves me from saying I can’t treat them... Ah, it’s all Grandpa’s fault. It was just a meal for a benefactor, yet in the end, he has a favor to ask.

Now it’s worse, owing a big favor to the benefactor again.

Little Xuan sighed deeply.

...

However, he was still young and didn’t understand that some adults in this world just don’t care about face.

For example, at this moment, Chu River looked at him: "What’s for lunch in the cafeteria?"

Little Xuan subconsciously covered his small wallet—it was gone, really gone!

He said painfully: "Teacher, I have no food tickets left..."

The food tickets and allowances given by the military are fixed, and in the coming days, he and his grandpa will have to find ways to exchange for some more food tickets.

Chu River: ...

Absolutely unexpected, there would be a day she’d go hungry because the other side was too poor.

Chu River also sighed—she had no food tickets either.

Her salary hadn’t been paid yet, and Shi Suifeng’s allowances were spent early in the month; everything exchanged for was in the cellar. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

So distressing.

She decided to go home and get a dried fish to exchange for a meal at the cafeteria.

And, how many days has it been, why is Shi Suifeng’s mission taking so long? If he doesn’t come back soon, she’s going to starve to death!

Chu River was indignant.

Indeed, my older niece and nephew are reliable! Can’t delay any longer, got to bring them over!

At this moment, she suddenly saw Sister-in-law Li, who introduced her to a job, coming over:

"Little Chu, your brother’s back. He asked me to tell you not to go to the cafeteria for lunch; go home instead."

Chu River: !!!

Instant delight.

She could only nod excitedly, and this full face of good emotions made Sister-in-law Li hesitate to speak about the changes at her home.

Ah, Captain Shi, what can I say?

Taking care of kids is admirable, but he’s not yet married and has such an eating sister, and also raised three kids... In the future, no matter how good the conditions are, no girl would want to marry him!

Young people, in their thirties, and still not married, what should be done!

Sister-in-law Li was very worried.

...

Chu River was full of anticipation, but she couldn’t leave school for a while.

Especially Liu Jia Bao, he had diarrhea.

The kind where it comes too fast; before he could raise his hand, the whole class started reeking, and while other kids were playing games, he was being scrubbed by two sisters-in-law under the water spout!

Chu River walked over to take a look, and expressed disdain for the thick dirt on him: "Liu Jia Bao, why don’t you keep clean? Later on, when we’re playing ’Eagle Catches the Chicks,’ no one will want a mother like you."

Liu Jia Bao was round and sturdy, yet agile. When it came to ’Eagle Catches the Chicks,’ he was always the brave mother chicken facing the big eagle, able to protect a long line of kids behind.

Because of this, his poor reputation actually improved greatly, and during human bumper car games, he always rolled the smoothest, gaining considerable fame in the class.

Liu Jia Bao was obsessed with this feeling.

Now being disliked by the teacher, he quickly defended: "We have no water at home; my grandmother won’t let me clean! I’m really very clean."

Chu River didn’t believe it.

However, saying lack of water at home was a reason, most of the children in the nursery weren’t that clean either.

Importantly, faucets were not a usual thing in family quarters. It’s not that water pumps didn’t exist, but they consumed electricity, which the military district was reluctant to use!
