Chapter 240. Sleep some more
After Lin Qing He went back, Zhou Qing Bai continued to work. It was apparent that he got more energy.
As for Lin Qing He, she began to a hearty meal when she got home.
It was chicken noodle soup for lunch. For dinner, she planned to make Liangpi. Her family Qing Bai loved it.
As Lin Qing He made Liangpi, Mother Zhou was learning at the side. Lin Qing He persuaded, "Mother, don't mind the trouble. Father and Qing Bai are working in the field. If they don't eat well, it will cost their bones and blood. It won't be conducive to their longevity. Our country is getting better and better in the future. I want to stay in the capital to advance in the future. At that time, I will bring you and Father over to enjoy life."
"Huh?" Mother Zhou was stunned: "Want to take me and your father to the capital?"
"If it develops well in the future, we will. The whole family moves there. But for now, there's no condition to. So mother, don’t be too prudent. If you save, you'll lose good health. Then you will have to go to the hospital to spend money in the future. You might as well spend money to nurture your body well," Lin Qing He continued.
"But. Your father and I both have our household registration here. How can we move there?" Mother Zhou couldn't help but utter.
"Mother, don't mention this outside." Lin Qing He whispered.
Mother Zhou nodded at once. Then Lin Qing He told her about future development movement.
"I don't plan to come back in the future. I plan to take all the children out. Qing Bai will come with me then. So I also plan to bring Mother and Father over at that time." Lin Qing He said.
"We'll talk when the time comes. We'll talk then" Mother Zhou repeated.
Lin Qing He nodded and didn't say anything. In addition to Liangpi, she also diced the cowpeas, fried them with eggs, and fried some pork.
These were to accompany the Liangpi.
On top of that, there was soup. Fish soup, which used a piece of grass carp. Zhou Dong had brought it over.
Lin Qing He turned the fish head into tofu and fish head soup. As for the fish meat, Lin Qing He cooked it and served it as a side dish for Liangpi.
All in all, tonight's dinner was exceptionally hearty.
It didn't end there.
Lin Qing He knew that her family Qing Bai would definitely mess around tonight. Cough cough, to tell the embarrassing truth, she missed him very much.
So, she took advantage of when Mother Zhou was busy in the backyard and made some pork and chive dumplings. After they were cooked, she stored a bowl of it into her space.
This was going to be Zhou Qing Bai's midnight snack.
As for the Peking duck she brought back, it was already demolished during their Chicken Noodle Soup time. It was a snack for everyone.
At this time, people have a big appetite. Although a roast duck was quite a lot, it can't withstand that many mouths.
Just one piece per person and it was gone. They directly gnawed it.
Er Wa was also extremely envious. He remarked that the capital actually had such delicious food. Lin Qing He told him to get admitted if he got the ability.
It was supposed to be summer vacation now. But since the college entrance examination was restored last year, education finally began here. Especially after producing two Bei University's students, Lin Qinghe and Zhou Kai, who have won glory for the village.
Therefore, there was no summer vacation this year. Both elementary school and junior high school had supplementary lessons.
When they all came back in the evening, a very rich supper was already on the table.
Not to mention Zhou Qing Bai and his sons, even Father Zhou's speed of refreshing himself was faster.
It was really incomparable. Once Fourth's wife comes back, the food at home couldn't be praised enough. Who doesn't want to eat something tasty?
"This soup is stewed with tofu. I also added some ginger and celery, it won't be fishy." Lin Qing He said. she scooped a bowl for Father Zhou first. Then Zhou Qing Bai.
As for Er Wa and San Wa, scoop it themselves.
"You have it too." Zhou Qing Bai said.
"En." Lin Qing He nodded.
Then the whole family ate a full dinner.
After dinner, they took a break. About half an hour later, they ate a watermelon. The family sat on the mat.
Then it was almost seven o'clock by this time.
Father Zhou and Mother Zhou went back.
As for the boys, they went next door to study.
Zhou Qing Bai grabbed his clothes and went to take a bath in the bathroom. He soon returned in a pair of shorts. Lin Qing He felt a little excited when she saw his glowing eyes.
She looked forward to the nectar after a long drought.
"I'll take a shower first." Lin Qing He said.
Zhou Qing Bai nodded and waited for her to change out of her clothes. He took it and went to wash it.
As for Lin Qinghe, she didn't come back right away after taking a bath. She first came over to teach Er Wa and San Wa for a while and gave some pointers. It was after eight o'clock when she told the brothers to go to bed earlier.
Then Lin Qing He came back.
Zhou Qing Bai sent a grudging gaze toward his wife.
"Qing Bai." Lin Qing He softly called out.
"En." Zhou Qing Bai responded in a low tone.
Zhou Qing Bai was sitting on the edge of the Kang. Lin Qing He went up and sat in his embrace. The two of them hadn't done anything but hugged. Still, the mood was particularly satisfying.
After the two of them hugged for a while, it was natural to enter the main subject.
From nine o'clock, they remained engaged until around twelve o'clock. Almost half-past twelve!
Lin Qing He was so tired. She took out the pork and leek dumplings she prepared for Zhou Qing Bai. She turned and fell asleep.
Zhou Qing Bai devoured the dumplings. Not even the soup was left. Then he went up to hug his wife. The couple went to sleep in content.
Since they were busy until deep in the night, they got up late in the morning.
But fortunately, Mother Zhou knew what was up. So, when Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai got up, Mother Zhou had already steamed the mantou.
Lin Qing He cooked fried egg, a tomato soup, and a fried cucumber. Then the meal was served.
"Fourth's wife, sleep some. There are no chores at home." Mother Zhou said to her.
Lin Qing He's face didn't blush and remained unperturbed, and responded, "I won't sleep. I have to go to Sister Mei's place to get some meat back."
Zhou Qing Bai washed last night's clothes. Didn't need her, so she rode a bicycle and went out.
She sought Sister Mei. Her business with Sister Mei had to be cut off because she was going to the capital to study. Still, she was very happy that she knew an intellectual like Lin Qing He.
Yesterday Lin Qing He went to the community to buy a watermelon and ordered it with Sister Mei. That's why she was coming over to collect it.
Sister Mei prepared three jins of pork belly. Spare ribs and big bones as well.
After the money was settled, Sister Mei smiled and said, "Don't know if the watches in the capital are expensive?"
"Expensive. A watch can't be bought unless you got a minimum of three hundred." Lin Qing He knew what she meant when she heard it, said.
"The price is that high?" Sister Mei blurted.
"If you buy a watch, the quality in our city isn't bad. It's just for checking the time. You don't need to buy such an expensive one. I wasn't willing to buy it for my Qing Bai after seeing it." Lin Qin He said.
She did want to buy it, but it was too expensive. More than 300. She planned to go to the south in a year or two to check it out. For now, forget it.
