Chapter 301. Became successful and made a fortune
When the couple went home, they naturally received a lot of onlookers' attention.
After all, their family was the first one to move out of the village. It was rare to see in the 90s, let alone the current 80s.
Absolutely respect-garnering.
So soon many relatives and friends came to the house.
Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai entertained them.
After talking for a long time, the neighbors went back. While Eldest Sister-in-law and the others did not leave.
"Like the previous years, a roast duck in each family. Sisters-in-law, take it back to add to your meal." Lin Qing He took out a few packets of roast duck from the bag and said.
"It's not necessary to buy it back every year." Eldest Sister-in-law said with some embarrassment.
"It's just a roast duck." Lin Qing He insisted on giving it to her.
Both Second Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law had one.
Second Sister-in-law asked: "I saw Fourth Brother has gained a lot of flesh this year. Is the business in the dumpling shop in the capital doing well?"
"Business is pretty good." Lin Qing He nodded.
"Oh, that's great. Mother is always worried at home," Second Sister-in-law remarked.
"Why didn't the boys come back this year?" Third Sister-in-law said.
"We recognized a godparent over there. The three naughty boys stayed there to accompany their god-grandfather." Lin Qing He replied.
"Da Wa and his brothers has a god-grandfather in the capital, so they don't want biological grandfather in the countryside?" Zhou Liu Ni smilingly squinted her eyes.
"You lass, how do you talk?" Eldest Sister-in-law immediately uttered.
"Liu Ni has grown up now. Your lips are becoming sharper and sharper. When the elders speak, you can just interrupt." Third Sister-in-law laughed.
Second Sister-in-law was too embarrassed and glared at her daughter: "If you can't speak, shut up and keep silent!"
Zhou Liu Ni was unbothered and smiled: "I'm just kidding."
"This joke is not funny at all. The most important thing for people is to not forget their roots. Whether it is me or Qing Bai, we teach Da Wa and his brothers this. The house in the capital is Da Wa's god-grandfather's. He knew that the school lacked a house and could not arrange it for me. He also knew that I was anxious to bring Qing Bai over, so he transferred his house to the school. Also, the dumpling shop. He helped to find it. We settled the god relationship this yea. He's on his own. Da Wa and his brothers want to stay. Qing Bai and I have no problem with it." Lin Qing He stated with a smile.
These words can be regarded as an explanation of the origin of this relationship. Most importantly was for the family on this side. Old Wang got no one, so it was understandable that the children stay there.
Didn’t the couple come back?
"It's right to stay there." Father Zhou nodded.
"Eldest Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law, and Third Sister-in-law go back and prepare dinner. We have to prepare for dinner too, so I won't keep you." Lin Qing He said with a smile.
"Alright." Eldest Sister-in-law nodded and then left.
Second Sister-in-law called Zhou Liu Ni. Third Sister-in-law also took Wu Ni back.
"Mother, Liu Ni girl is getting acrider now. Her words are really unpleasant." Lin Qing He unreservedly said to Mother Zhou as soon as they left.
Although she as Fourth Aunt didn't put in any effort into them, she did bring gifts back every year. She would try her best to help others.
In Zhou Liu Ni's eyes, it's like this was what she should do.
"Don't take Liu Ni's words seriously." Mother Zhou said. She wasn't worried about her granddaughter's matter. She turned to ask Zhou Qing Bai: "Qing Bai, how is the business at the dumpling shop?"
Just now Mother Zhou didn't take the answer in front of everyone seriously.
"Very good." Zhou Qing Bai nodded.
Lin Qing He started to prepare dinner. Simple was fine.
Mother Zhou didn't believe it and said, "Not telling your mother the truth? Mother saved a lot of money with your father this year. After the new year, bring it with you to the capital and buy more study materials for Da Wa and his brothers. "
Zhou Qing Bai didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Lin Qing He was busy in the kitchen and also heard this.
This was why her mother-in-law can sometimes be muddled. Still, Lin Qing He still didn't say anything.
"Why didn't the boys come back this year?" Third Sister-in-law said.
"We recognized a godparent over there. The three naughty boys stayed there to accompany their god-grandfather." Lin Qing He replied.

Lin Qing He was busy in the kitchen and also heard this.
This was why her mother-in-law can sometimes be muddled. Still, Lin Qing He still didn't say anything.
Because the old couple was indeed partial to her family. Partial to her man and three sons. She was in the same camp.
So as long as she didn't make decisions for her and didn't interfere with how her life went, she won't care about the other little things.
So she spoke out: "Qing Bai's dumpling shop business is indeed doing great. It's not less than my salary. Father, Mother, you guys prepare this year. You're moving to the capital with us after the new year, right?"
The house with the garden can't always be kept empty. It was better to have people live in it.
"Move to the capital next year?" Mother Zhou became agitated.
"It's not stable over there. Forget it." Father Zhou said.

"Move to the capital next year?" Mother Zhou became agitated.
"It's not stable over there. Forget it." Father Zhou said.
He felt that neither of them could help out youngest son, so better not go over and make trouble. Also, they can't speak the capital's accent.
"Your father is worried about going there and can't speak over there." Mother Zhou said.
"Our accent here is actually quite close to that of the capital. It's still understandable." Lin Qing He said upon hearing this.
Although the words here have a strong country accent, people in the capital can still understand them fifty-sixty percent.
"Once there, just learn a bit of that side is enough. We looked for a house with a garden for you. We plan to rent it after the new year. It's only five yuan a month. It's very spacious. Once you go there and like it, you can get Qing Bai to start a vegetable garden for you. Then fix up a chicken pen for you to raise chickens. If you have nothing to do, go out and stroll around. If you don’t know the way, you can call for your three grandsons. What is there to worry about it?" Lin Qing He readily persuaded.
With this, Mother Zhou's heart moved.
"The rent is five yuan a month?" Father Zhou frowned. This was too expensive.
"It's not a lot of five yuan. Qing Bai's Dumpling shop still makes money. The rent is not a problem. The key factor is you two." Lin Qing He said.
"Go live there." Zhou Qing Bai also spoke.
"We'll talk about next year." Father Zhou said.
Mother Zhou was very tempted, but she didn't directly contradict Father Zhou. She said in a roundabout way: "There are so many chickens and ducks in the family. Should we sell some?"
"Qing Bai, take some to the city tomorrow and sell it." Lin Qing He turned to Zhou Qing Bai.
It was better to bring the old couple to the capital. If they feel unwell, there's more access to care for them.
"Tomorrow Da Wa's uncle happened to come to collect the chickens. Qing Bai, go with him." Mother Zhou said upon hearing this.
"My third brother is coming over to collect the chicken? What do you mean?" Lin Qing He put the food on the table and perplexedly asked.
"You don't know yet. Da Wa's uncle became successful and made a fortune." Mother Zhou smilingly said when she knew that she didn't know about Third Brother Lin's matter.
"Your father is worried about going there and can't speak over there." Mother Zhou said.

All that Zhou Liu Niu knows to do is flap her gums unnecessarily. Good luck get LQH to take you to the capital
ReplyDeleteBtw ...thank you for the update
ReplyDeleteThis Liu Niu is like a barbarian. She knows how to take advantage of people..Hopefully they won't let her join them in the capital. She will be a big problem. Has a sharp tongue and uncrupulous behavior..tsk tsk tsk
ReplyDeleteThat girl really is trouble..thx for the chapter
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chapter <3
ReplyDeleteLiu niu girl is not considerate of anyone. It is like she is trying to drive a wedge between her grandparents and our MC's family. Like, even if u talk trash, shouldn't u consider ur family's feelings?
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chapter!
ReplyDeleteI will be impressed if this little snake can manage to get to the capital without the help of LQH... but I really hope and wish that she would end up with one of the worst village boy... sorry for being evil... hahahahah
You want your aunt to give you benefits so you ... talk trash about her sons to her face??? It’s not just the scheming it’s that she’s so bad at scheming, tsk
ReplyDeleteThe author is definitely planting to seeds for Liu Ni's destruction. If she keeps running her mouth like that, no body will even want to be around her. She might even end up like Wang Ling and prey on men to survive. She clearly shows no interest in improving herself and only seems to trash talk other people.
ReplyDeleteHow exactly does she explain the bag on the bike. Bike fits the two of them that also holds a bag with all the gifts, the chickens etc how big is the bag to be able to disguise that amount of stuff
ReplyDeleteI know they want the grandparents to come to the city because it’s easier to care, less work and better conditions with doctors, etc. but they are till healthy and active enough. Their friends and the rest of the family are in the village. I would have them stay for another couple years and after the sister and her family are also settled, then bring them over. 2-3 years more in the country wouldn’t hurt. Also, the cousins that want to do more schooling or work can also stay with the grandparents in the city.
ReplyDeleteIf the grandparents can be that easily manipulated by a little girl, why would clever Lin Qing He let it fester? She better nip it in the bud, otherwise she deserves the trouble that comes her way.
