Chapter 96 Birth a daughter

They had lunch at their house.

Lin Qing He wasn’t a miser, she served our a few solid dishes. The table was completely harmonious.

When Su Da Lin cycled Zhou Xiao Mei back, he stuttered as he spoke: "Four...Fourth brother and...Fourth Sister-in-law...are very nice."

Zhou Xiao Mei hugged his waist with a sweet expression: "That’s for sure. Da Lin, my fourth sister-in-law told me that we need to save a bit. There’s a chance we’ll be able to buy a big house to live in."

Su Da Lin agreed. Although he spent a lot of time marrying his wife this time, he still has more than a thousand yuans in his saving. This family was definitely quite rich in this era.

The husband and wife returned home, while on Lin Qing He’s side, a couple discussion was happening.

"Although it’s a little stuttering, as long as he treats Xiao Mei with all his heart, there’s basically no problem." Lin Qing He told Zhou Qingbai.

"En." Zhou Qing Bai acknowledged.

Toward this Meifu, Su Dalin, he had no prejudice. What’s more, as a person, he was great.

"Eldest Gujie and Second Gujie had no time to return when Xiao Mei married. They will probably return on the second day of the New Year." Lin Qing He said.

This time Zhou Xiao Mei got married, the oldest Guzi, Zhou Xiao Juan and the second Guzi, Zhou Xiao Ju did not return.

Zhou Xiao Juan had caught a cold this time, and it was severe. However, she did get her husband to send five yuan as a dowry gift. It counted as her blessing.

Because of her mother-in-law catching a severe cold, Zhou Xiao Ju had no choice but to stay behind and care for her as her husband was the only child. She also got her husband to deliver the five yuans to express her thoughts.

This Eldest Gujie and Second Gujie were the two eldest sisters, older than Eldest Brother. If men and women were counted together, Eldest Brother would rank third.

However, they don’t mix it together over here. They ranked men only their own, same with the women.

"Want to go to the county city?" Zhou Qing Bai understood his wife and looked at her.

"Rather than the second day of New Year, it’ll be the same to go on the third day." Lin Qing He decided.

If Zhou Xiao Mei wanted to visit, then they must stay this year. As for Eldest Gujie and Second Gujie, it didn’t matter, because Lin Qing He was not very familiar with them.

Then Lin Qing He went over last year’s photos.

Da Wa, Er Wa, and San Wa all gathered around to look together. They liked their own photos.

"Mother, can we still take a picture during this year’s trip to the county city?" Da Wa gazed expectantly at his mother.

"Take it, Mother?" Er Wa also looked hopefully at his mother.

"Want photos!" San Wa nodded.

Lin Qing He nodded: "Since you behaved very well this year, we can take picture for another year."

The three children cheered.

In the evening Lin Qing He was still gazing at the photos. After she had her fill of being vain, she admired Zhou Qing Bai’s.

Zhou Qing Bai’s picture was also very serious. Even though Lin Qing He requested him to look softer, he still didn’t smile. From the looks of it, that was the kind of man he was.

"Just lack photo frames, otherwise I will put them all into a photo frame." Lin Qing He remarked.

Zhou Qing Bai’s eyebrows were soft and spoke, "I can ask the carpenter to make some."

Lin Qing He changed her mind again: "Forget it, leave it to the future. Taking pictures once every year, we’ll have a lot of them accumulated. Better to not take up space."

Zhou Qing Bai left it up to her.

It snowed. There basically no activity. Zhou Qing Bai carried back two little piglets to raise. Lin Qing He pondered on food every day.

Like pumpkin mantou, cornmeal mantou, red bean mantou, sticky bean buns, and eight-treasure congee. She made all of these once.

These were the staple foods. There were also side dishes, various kinds of stew meat, and soups.

In winter, the body doesn’t need any supplements. After working so hard for a year, it was time to rest.

The children were satisfied, Zhou Qingbai too.

It still wasn’t enough for him to exhaust his energy by waking up in the morning and go running. Lin Qing He will naturally bear it at night.

"Tonight, you got to sleep properly. Don’t be impulsive, you hear?" Lin Qing He warned Zhou Qing Bai. Last night, their movement was a little overboard, Da Wa almost woke up.

In the winter, the three boys came over to sleep.

"You didn’t hold it in and called out." Zhou Qing Bai looked at her with humor in his eyes.

Lin Qing He thought, you were over-the-top, how can I bear it!

Lin Qing He tutored Da Wa on his homework during the evening. Da Wa mentioned: "Mother, I want to study third grade next year. The second grade is too easy."

"Alright, when the times come, your father will take you over. Once you pass the test given by the teacher, you can study third grade." Lin Qinghe was still very democratic.

And under her nightly tutoring, Da Wa had already half-finished third grade. The second grade was all child-play to him. This year, he scored 100 points on every exam, indicating his mastery of the homework was still excellent.

So it was no problem for him to go to the third grade. At this time, the primary schools were all five-year programs, still not six-year program yet.

"Father, you heard what Mother say. I will go to the third grade next year." Da Wa said to his father.

Zhou Qing Bai had no objections either.

He rarely intervened in the kids’ education. Only when they did something wrong, he will teach them.

So Da Wa’s matter of skipping to Third Grade next year was certain.

Lin Qing He had factored in Da Wa skipping to the third grade.

Next year, Da Wa will be seven years old. It was actually too early to study third grade at the age of seven, but as long as he can achieve it, it was great.

Because the college entrance examination will resume in 1977. It was now in the ’70 and ’71 after the new year.

He certainly won’t be able to catch up to the first set of college entrance exams, but he can give the second or third when the time comes.

At that time, Da Wa will already be fourteen or fifteen years old. It would be fine if he was admitted to college.

She believed that the children she teaches, even if they were fourteen or fifteen years old, they have sufficient self-care and independence abilities.

"Mother, should I go to school?" Er Wa asked.

After the new year, he will be five years old.

"Let’s talk about it when you are six years old. You can learn at home first. After next year, you can go to school and get the skills to jump a level like your brother." Lin Qing He stated.

Er Wa bobbed his head when he heard this.

After sending Er Wa away, San Wa also turned to her. Lin Qing He grinned and said: "San Wa is still small. You’ll spend more time with Mother at home. Waits until you grow up, I will send you to school later."

"I want a schoolbag." San Wa declared.

This kid had been eyeing on his brother’s schoolbag for a long time.

"Okay, once you go to school, Mother will make you a schoolbag then." Lin Qing He agreed.

San Wa was satisfied.

The brothers played for a while, and then went to sleep. The brothers were almost the same temperament, once they want to sleep, they all fell asleep in a short while.

"Three heartless stinky boys." Lin Qing He muttered as she covered them with a quilt.

"Wife, let’s have a daughter." Zhou Qing Bai pulled her into his arms and huskily said.

"Don’t think about. You are destined to only have sons." Lin Qing He replied.

Zhou Qing Bai grinned as he pressed her under him. Lin Qing He uttered nervously: "Don’t mess around. Tussling every day, aren’t you afraid of getting weak kidney?"
