Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All novel Chapter 1782

Chapter 1782: Chapter 1328: I Have No Chance (2)

Speaking of this, Cai Xiufen waved her hand: "Let’s not talk about those old times. Right now everyone’s days are much better, every household has their own land, and how you work it is up to yourself. If you don’t want to tire yourself out, just plant a little, and go to the city to find some job to make money. As long as you can feed your family, I think that’s pretty good."

Kang Li stuck out her thumb in approval: "Mom, your thinking moves with the times. No wonder you used to be a women’s cadre—so impressive!"

"Don’t put a feather in my cap."

Cai Xiufen glared at Kang Li, knowing her darling daughter was up to mischief and just trying to coax her into a good mood. Still, being praised by her daughter made her happy inside, though her expression didn’t show much change. She said, "It’s because the national policies are good. I get plenty of news from your place, listening to broadcasts, watching TV news. If I were still insisting on old ways of thinking, wouldn’t I just be dragging the country back?!"

After the reforms started, in the countryside, the clever and capable people have every chance to get rich doing other things within policy limits.

There’s really nothing anyone can pick on about that.

Cai Xiufen knows this very well, so when Big Brother Kang and Third Brother Kang contracted out part of the family land and chose to stick with starting businesses outside, she never said a single word against it.

After all, the country never said rural people have to farm for their whole lives.

Plus, as the country develops, more and more farm work will be done by machines, without needing people to labor so much—just like when tractors came out a few years ago.

They can both haul crops from the fields and haul manure back to the fields, saving folks a ton of effort.

"Mom, I call you awesome but you’re so humble you won’t admit it! Be honest now, in our village, how many women can compare with you when it comes to keeping up with the news and listening to broadcasts?"

Kang Li’s eyes gleamed, her expression dead serious: "This is called vision, called perspective. Mom, you’re truly one extraordinary lady!"

Thumb up, again.

But Cai Xiufen let Kang Li’s rainbow-flavored flattery bounce right off her, glaring: "Am I really that old?"

Kang Li sensed the vibe shifting, quickly sucked up: "Not old at all, Mom! You’re still so young. When we walk out together, people think we’re sisters, not mother and daughter!"

"So who are you calling a lady of a certain age?"

Cai Xiufen arched her brows.

"Mom, you must’ve heard wrong. How could I ever call you old?"

Blinking in fake innocence, Kang Li pouted: "To me—to my eyes, in my heart—my mom’s a total beauty. So gorgeous my dad can’t even look away!"

"Get outta here!"

Kang Li was sitting right next to Cai Xiufen, which made it easy for Cai Xiufen to smack her.

"Ouch, ow, that hurts!"
