BTTS 362




 Chapter 362. Found himself pretty handsome


It wasn't easy to see Zhou Kai.

It was rare for him to come back. He did come over to see his grandparents, but most of the time he stayed at home with his parents.

For example, today. He and his two younger brothers were taken to the mall by Lin Qing He.

Although he will go back to the academy after the New Year, Lin Qing He still bought him new clothes, from top to toe.

Zhou Kai said, "I won't have much chance to wear it." Once he's back at the academy, he had to wear a uniform, which was all the same.

"It's alright if you can't wear it a few times." Lin Qing He didn't mind.

Zhou Gui Lai saw a camera on a shelf in the mall.

Lin Qing He noticed this boy's behavior and gave him two glances. She didn't buy it for him yet. Wait until next year.

Sons ah. One can meet his requirements, but he can't be satisfied as soon as his wish comes up. The most correct way was to leave him hanging for a while.

It was to let him know that things aren't easy to come by and that it was even more difficult for parents to make money.

That was how one should raise their sons. Can't spoil them too much, otherwise, it would be easy for them to become a white-eyed wolf.

However, Lin Qing He wasn't aware that her eldest son was excluded (from the above statement). Afterward, Second and Third got a few sets of clothes and two pairs of shoes. If this wasn't doting, then what was?

Can only say that the standards were different.

After all, a camera was a few hundred. She wanted to buy a good one, which was a minimum of four to five hundred yuan.

The mother and sons came to the dumpling shop after shopping.

In the dumpling shop, Zhou Qing Bai, Zhou Er Ni, and Aunt Ma were all busy.

It was the end of the year. Raw dumplings were selling well. Everyone didn't want to make it themselves, so they just came over and buy some to cook at home.

"Hurry up and help. Have to make another ten jin of dumplings." Zhou Er Ni told Zhou Kai and the others.

Everyone was making dumplings. Lin Qing He asked, "When is our dumpling shop on holiday?"

"Twenty-eighth,." answered workaholic Zhou Qing Bai.

He had written a red sign and stuck it outside the door. It was open as normal until the twenty-eighth day and then it was closed for holiday. Then after the seventh of January, the dumpling shop would continue to open.

Su Da Lin's bun shop's opening was the same as his.

Lin Qing He didn't have any objection. Then twenty-eighth it was.

Aunt Ma smiled and said, "Business is good. It's fine to do for two more days."

The other workers under Lin Qing He was on vacation without pay, while Aunt Ma was still working like normal. Once she is off for the New Year, she'll get a paid leave.

For Aunt Ma, that was wonderful. Basically, she had nothing to do and the whole family was idle at home. Why not earn more?

"Have to give Aunt Ma a vacation." Lin Qing He said with a smile: "Why haven't Xiao Dan come over to watch TV these past few days?"

Ma Xiao Dan was a frequent visitor and comes to watch TV every day.

"He has some cough these past two days. His father had taken him to the hospital today." Aunt Ma answered.

"How is it now?" Lin Qing He asked.

"It's better. Just doesn't have much energy." Aunt Ma replied.

Lin Qing He smiled and said, "Make him some good food and the child will soon recover."

In this cold weather, it was easier to catch a cold as a child's resistance was weaker. For example, Zhou Xiao Mei's third child, Su Ya also caught a cold.

It was because she kicked the quilt at night.

Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai were eating pears in their room that day. She said, "There are still a lot of apples and pears in my space. Let Eldest bring some of them with him tomorrow."

"How to explain?" Zhou Qing Bai asked.

Lin Qing He laughed: "Apples and pears aren't something rare. At most, these ones are fresher. So there is no need to be so anxious."

There were also apples and pears available out there now. But they were not as fresh as the ones she brought out.

After all, they were bought during the peak season and kept in the space for the couple to eat and nourish themselves in the winter.

However, there were many children at Zhou Xiao Mei's side, so it was fine to send some over.

Zhou Qing Bai didn't say anything.

The next day he went out with the bag first. When Zhou Kai and the others went over to have breakfast, he told them to bring it over.

"Dad, where did you buy it? It's so fresh?" Zhou Kai grabbed one to eat and remarked.

"I bought it in the morning." Zhou KaiQing Bai said and pointed to another bag: "This is from our family. Don't eat those, they're for your grandparents and your aunt's family."

"Okay." Zhou Kai nodded. Then he munched on the apple as he carried the bag over to his grandparents' place.

"How can there be such fresh fruit at this time?" Mother Zhou uttered in surprise.

"There are still some in the mall." Zhou Kai said. It's just the price was more expensive. He said to Zhou Xiao Mei: "Maybe my mom asked my dad to buy it. Aunt, you can stew a rock sugar with pear for Ya Ya. Drink this and the cough will be gone."

"How to stew?" Zhou Xiao Mei asked.

"Aunt, you don’t know how to make it. Just cut open the pears, hollow out the core of the fruit, pour some cold water in, throw in two red dates and a few rock sugar, put them in a bowl, and stew them in a pot. Drink." Zhou Kai said.

When he was young, his mother had bought some pears every winter and made them this to drink.

Zhou Xiao Mei was speechless: "Fourth Sister-in-law really treats you like young masters." Just by listening, she felt it took a lot of effort

Mother Zhou said: "Just follow that. I drank it once and it was really good."

Zhou Xiao Mei went to make one for Ya Ya. Once Ya Ya drank the daily rock sugar and pear soup, she brightened up.

"Eat more apples. When you are sick, eat more of this to supplement vitamins." Zhou Kai said.

But there was a lot brought over. One net bag of apples and one net bag of pears.

"Must have cost a lot." Zhou Xiao Mei responded.

"I guess, my dad found it was rare to encounter such fresh ones, so he bought more. There are more at home. It's bought, so eat it." Zhou Kai didn't care.

Zhou Xiao Mei smiled and gave the children one each.

"I'm heading to my youngest uncle's shop to eat bun now." Zhou Kai said.

"Bring a pear to your little uncle and let him peel and have it. He was a little heated yesterday." Zhou Xiao Mei grabbed two pears: "Have one yourself."

"I ate one already." Zhou Kai said, but didn't refuse. It was delicious.

As soon as he left the house, he encountered Zhu Zhen Zhen from next door. This was not a coincidence. Zhu Zhen Zhen had been there for a few days and still didn't see him.

Her effort paid off. Today, she finally came across his visit. If she didn't today, she didn't plan to come.

But from this look, it really made her heart skip a beat.

Zhou Kai swept a glance at her. Seeing that she was like a frightened little white rabbit, he felt perplexed. Was he so hideous? He believed he was quite handsome!

He ignored her. He didn't know her after all. He turned around and went to his youngest uncle's bun shop to have buns and mutton soup. Both pears were eaten by his youngest uncle.
