Chapter 296: Seek fortune
As for old Zhang family’s idea, Lin Qing He threw it to the back of her mind as soon as she turned away.
The three sons she raised weren’t stupid. Want to scheme her sons, she won’t be any door. Not even a window too.
Was it useful to be weak and delicate? It was useless.
Lin Qing He had always prepared the idea of her sons walking their own. As for her sons’ partner, she won’t get involved in the decision.
If she was dissatisfied, she will say it. If they insist on marrying, then she will not stop them. In the future, everyone can live independently. That was no problem.
But it was too early to say this, they were still small.
Lin Qing He met Aunt Ma on the way over. Aunt Ma was getting off work and making her way home.
“Xiao Kai told me to call you when I got back and don’t read the book and forget the time.” Aunt Ma smiled.
“My stomach is grumbling.” Lin Qing He smilingly responded.
The two didn’t talk too much. Aunt Ma went back and Lin Qing He also made her way.
The family ate dinner together.
“This side lacks a fan.” Lin Qing He remarked.
On this hot day, one can sweat from having a meal. She hadn’t thought about having an electric fan here.
“Buy it next time.” Zhou Qing Bai nodded.
This hot weather was indeed too hot. He was wearing a vest when he cooked dumplings. Still, he was hot. Certainly needed an electric fan to cool off.
As for the customers who came to eat dumplings, the service at the moment wasn’t so attentive. Having an electric fan? Nonexistent.
“After eating, you two tidy up.” Lin Qing He directed to her three sons.
Today, old Wang didn’t come to eat. He ate at the school.
After she finished eating, she took Zhou Qing Bai out and rode the bicycle to the square to stroll in the evening breeze.
“When do you think we should bring Father and Mother over?” Lin Qing He asked.
“We’ll see next year.” Zhou Qing Bai said.
The dumpling shop just opened this year. Although the business wasn’t bad, it wasn’t completely stable yet.
Lin Qing He nodded. Then she saw an acquaintance on the other side of the square. Wasn’t it Chen Xue? She was strolling with a man. It looked like she was dating.
Chen Xue also noticed Lin Qing He. After a glance, she walked away with the man as if she didn’t see her.
“You know her?” Zhou Qing Bai asked.
“Former dorm mate, but she moved out later.” Lin Qing He replied.
Zhou Qing Bai didn’t ask anymore. He could sense that the relationship was probably bad.
While Lin Qing He continued on, “I don’t have any prejudice against her. Everyone has the right to choose a more favorable position to them. But they can’t hurt others.”
What Chen Xue did was to make her life better. It was understandable.
However, Chen Xue’s actions were no different from the original owner. Which was really unacceptable for Lin Qinghe.
Abandoning one’s husband and children. This was a display of one’s character as well as a character’s bad morals. Even if such a person was outstanding in other aspects, he/she wasn’t welcome in Lin Qing He’s mind.
Lin Qing He estimated that Chen Xue would regret it later.
Zhou Qing Bai sounded an acknowledgment. He did not say much about Chen Xue’s matter and turned it to Zhou Kai’s graduation next year.
“Uncle Wang said that when he graduates, he will go to the military academy for two years before letting him go to the army.” Zhou Qing Bai said.
“I don’t understand these. You decide how it works best and let him choose which one.” Lin Qing He said.
“Uncle Wang’s suggestion is good. Let him go to the military academy for another two years and he will only be 19 after he comes out.” Zhou Qing Bai said.
He came out of the army. In the army, the requirements for academic qualifications weren’t low. Zhou Qing Bai knew that academic qualifications were indispensable if he wants to go higher and farther in the future.
After graduating from Bei University and going to the military academy for two years, it was definitely enough.
Lin Qing He said, “I am afraid that we will have to leave the dumpling shop to San Wa in the future.” She told him the three brothers’ ambition.
She knew that her eldest son wanted to join the army. He always wanted to.
She was a little surprised that second son wanted to be a teacher. She felt that second son was actually more suitable for business.
It wasn’t bad that third son wanted to do business. After all, the stinky brat is sociable. He can converse with anyone. A social skill that he can learn without a teacher. He will be able to mingle in the future.
“Go on start his own business. Let’s keep it for our old age care.” Zhou Qing Bai didn’t have that plan.
Lin Qing He smiled and looked at him, “Are you planning to sell dumplings for a lifetime? That can’t do. Every summer and winter vacation, both of us will be going out to enjoy the mountains and rivers. We don’t have that time, so it’s fine to dump it to him.”
“En.” Zhou Qing Bai responded with a warm gaze.
The couple went to buy ice cream again. It was so comfortable. They didn’t go home until almost nine o’clock.
The brothers were watching TV. Seeing the husband and wife come back, they said, “Back from your date?”
“If you are envious, you can also find one.” Lin Qing He said.
“Mom, did you approve of us having teen love?” Zhou Xuan asked in surprise.
“Approve. Your dad and I want to hold grandchildren. Hurry up and get a teen love and birth some for us to play with,” Lin Qing He said.
“Eldest Brother, it’s up to you!” Zhou Gui Lai said.
Zhou Kai appeared speechless and said, “I won’t consider this personal issue until I’m twenty-five. You two can do it as soon as possible.”
“Twenty-five years old?” Zhou Qing Bai glanced at him. He was obviously not satisfied with this age.
“That’s too old. When Dad was twenty-five years old, all three of us were born.” Zhou Xuan said.
“That’s right.” Zhou Gui Lai also nodded.
Lin Qing He brought out a plate of fruit to eat. The family ate while watching TV. It was almost half-past nine when they turned off the TV and went to bed.
Life at home was very stable and settled.
Lin Qing He got a daily routine. Same for Zhou Qing Bai. The other three children had completely adapted to life here in the capital.
At old Zhou Family’s side.
When Father Zhou and Mother Zhou was having dinner that day, Zhou Liu Ni came.
“Liu Ni has come. Have you eaten yet?” Mother Zhou asked casually.
“I haven’t eaten it yet,” answered Zhou Liu as she eyed the scrambled eggs on the table.
The old couple had a fixed amount, but since they heard that she hadn’t eaten, they let her join them.
“Grandfather, how are Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt doing in the capital? The dumpling shop must be very good, right?” Zhou Liu spoke.
“A dumpling shop isn’t selling something uncommon. How good can the business be?” said Mother Zhou.
“Grandmother, it can’t be that Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt have a good life in the capital and abandon you now?” Said Ni said.
“What are you talking about, lass? Whether your fourth uncle and fourth aunt are filial or not, how we not tell?” Mother Zhou said She was unwilling to listen to this.
“Then why didn’t they come back this summer.” Zhou Liu Ni pointed out.
“The shop is already open, how can they be free? The monthly rent is a lot. Don’t know how it’s going. However, they will be back during the New Year.” Mother Zhou said with slight worry.
