Chapter 255. ’79’s New Year
On New Year’s Eve, they got a lot of pheasants because two were from Third Brother Lin as well as the boys went out hunting and brought them back in the evening.
So it beca an exceptional feast.
The family gathered around for the New Year’s Eve dinner, and the food was extrely satisfying.
Father Zhou and Mother Zhou were joyful. Everything at ho was developing in a good direction, so what was there to be troubled about?
"Every one of you devoured all dishes to the last crumb. You got to study hard next year. If you can’t support yourself in the future, your father and I won’t care." Lin Qing He told the three brothers.
She was really grateful that this period was getting better and better.
Otherwise, relying on the inco from the field with three lads in the family, the family will be drinking northwest wind.
They can really eat. Each al, they each have a huge appetite.
"Mother, you can’t dislike your own sons like this." Zhou Kai replied.
He had the biggest appetite. He can’t help it. He was this tall, he’ll get hungry easily.
Although there was enough oil content at ho, it can’t stand under the pressure of this kid’s consumption rate.
"Mother doesn’t favor anyone with the exception of Father. The three of us are included along the way. Being able to get a bite of her food is pretty good. Eldest Brother, be content." Er Wa a.k.a Zhou Xuan shook his head and said.
"Three little cabbages drifting in the wind."San Wa a.k.a Zhou Gui Lai had his hands clasped behind his back as he looked at the sky at forty-five degrees angle with a depressed pretty face.
Lin Qing He sent them to tidy up in laughter. Then she went out with Zhou Qing Bai for visitation.
It was an unsaid rule that one shouldn’t stay at ho all day on New Year’s Eve. After dinner, Lin Qing He grabbed lon seeds and snacks and ca over to Mrs. Cai’s house.
After sitting for more than an hour, she ca to old Zhou’s house.
Eldest Sister-in-law and the others were waiting for her.
The sisters-in-law put aside their relationship in the past. Currently, their relationship was still very harmonious. Every New Year, they get together.
They first talked about the changes in the village this year. The educated youths who were admitted to college had all gone back. Many had never returned for the New Year.
Lin Qing He comnted that all those who left now were admitted to the university, but that wasn’t for sure for those in the future.
She didn’t make her words too clear either. After all, the educated youths began to return to the city in large numbers. Seems to be around autumn next year when it happened.
From the beginning of 1979 until the early 1980s. Basically, not many were left.
When Eldest Sister-in-law and the rest heard this, they all inquired if she had heard sothing. Lin Qing He said no. She was guessing and told them not to talk about it outside.
"Qing He, do you plan to co back here after graduation?" Eldest Sister-in-law asked.
"After graduating, it goes without saying to look for employnt. Da Wa’s mother is the kind of talent that the country needs. What is she coming back ho for?" Second Sister-in-law piped in.
"If she doesn’t co back ho, what will happen to Fourth Brother and the rest?" Said Third Sister-in-law.
The three sisters-in-law looked at Lin Qing He. Lin Qing He responded, "I don’t know yet. It will be a while before graduation."
Initially, Lin Qing He planned to graduate early. But she found that she couldn’t advance too much. At most, graduate a year earlier. So she deliberately slowed down.
"I plan to stay in the capital when the ti cos. The school wants to keep as an instructor." Lin Qing He ntioned.
The university expressed this to her through her tutor.
Lin Qing He didn’t want to advance her study afterward. A university graduate was enough for her to glide through this era. The rest was concerned about the family’s advancent while the era was taking off. It was important to take the first bus.
When Eldest Sister-in-law and the others heard it, they were extrely envious.
"But if you stay in the capital, what will about Fourth Brother and the kids?" They hastily asked.
If Lin Qing He, this fourth sister-in-law, can stay in the capital, it won’t be a major problem as her employnt in the university will solve her household registration. However, Fourth Brother won’t have employnt to take on.
"If it’s possible, I will fight for it when the ti cos and move my family’s household registrations over." Lin Qing He said.
She felt that if she negotiated with the university, the university would be willing to help. After all, they wanted to keep her. She was married and they can’t let the couple be separated between two places, right?
Since she’ll work at the university as well as being married, she can get allocated accommodation...
Lin Qing He felt that this was a good choice.
The sisters-in-law’s mind was at rest.
When they went to bed at night, they ntioned this to their man.
"From what I see, Fourth’s wife intends to move the household registration in the future." Eldest Sister-in-law remarked with a little reluctance.
Speaking with a conscience, Fourth’s wife wasn’t very easy to get along with before. Since Fourth Brother ca back, she has changed. There was nothing to complain about after that.
After so many years, affection was nurtured. Eldest Sister-in-law didn’t really want Fourth’s wife’s whole family to move away.
"It’s good news to move out. No one in our old Zhou family had beco a citizen of the city. What’s more, household registration in the capital." Eldest Brother didn’t care much.
"It’s not that easy to transfer the household registration." Eldest Sister-in-law pointed out.
"With an acceptance from that side, it’s not that difficult to transfer the household registration. Since Fourth’s wife dares to say that, I think she is certain," Eldest Brother replied.
Eldest Sister Zhou-in-law said: "It would be great if she could co back to our hotown and develop her career."
"What developnt is there in our hotown? It is better to go out to the big city. The college entrance examination is restored now. I heard that everywhere is engaged in developnt. They need college students like them." Eldest Brother explained.
Eldest Sister-in-law didn’t say anything.
Second Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law also told their n.
The n’s attitudes were similar. They all support moving.
As the old saying goes, if trees move, they die; if people move, they live. Fourth’s wife got the capability. They can pull through in places like Bei University in the capital, so why won’t they move?
"If that side develops well, let’s see if Wu Ni can also pass the exam in the future. If she can pass the exam, she can simply go to her fourth uncle’s house. Boarding in the dorm is unnecessary." Third Brother said.
"It’s just that Wu Ni, the lass can’t get higher grades." Third Sister-in-law had the sa thought. She ntioned with distress.
"Take advantage of Fourth’s wife’s stay and get let her learn more." Third Brother replied.
Speaking of educating children. Third Brother felt that no one could catch up with Fourth’s wife in this area. This he was completely convinced of.
It was the honest truth. It didn’t take long after she began to teach, Zhou Yang and Wu Ni had improved in their performance after the daily sessions.
On the first day of the New Year, she didn’t teach. Because she was too occupied. After Lin Qing He got her eldest son to highlight the important points, she gave them a three-day vacation. They didn’t have to co over from the first to the third. Seriously studying on their own was sufficient.
On the first day of the New Year in 1979, Lin Qing He woke up early. Zhou Qing Bai saw her getting up and didn’t sleep anymore. Although the bed was comfortable, it was only comfortable having his wife too.
When she got up, he also got up. Third Brother Lin and his family were coming over today.
