In the past, her mother valued her sons the most, besides her eldest brother and her third brother. Her daughter's presence was not very prominent.

But now Zhou Min glanced at her mother and felt that if she made this request now, her mother would probably agree.

So she grabbed her father's arm and shook it, "Dad, please promise to give me a bicycle."

"How about a women's bicycle similar to Mom's?"

If it were a bicycle that required money and tickets, she certainly wouldn't dare to pester her father to buy her one.

But her dad could make the bicycle himself; he only needed to spend a little money to buy the materials.

According to her father, a small women's bicycle requires less material than a standard eight-inch bicycle.

In that case, making her a bicycle certainly wouldn't be very expensive.

With so many people in her family working, they should have enough money to buy her a bicycle.

"Dad, Dad~ can you make me one?"

Zhou Min continued to whine, she really wanted a car of her own.

Chen Suwen pushed Zhou Qingyun away with one hand and poked her daughter's forehead with the other, "Want your own bicycle? Don't even think about it."

"You haven't even graduated from junior high yet, let's talk about high school later."

"Even if your dad makes a new bicycle, it's not for you. You'd better go back to your studies."

What does a girl who's only fifteen or sixteen years old need a bicycle for?

Bicycles of this era were like BMWs decades later.

There's no need to buy or make it for a girl who's still in junior high.

Their family isn't particularly wealthy, so there's no need to raise their daughter like a "princess."

Zhou Min pouted in disappointment, "Mommy~"

"Stop thinking about it, just focus on your studies."

“If you want to go to the countryside to work as an educated youth, I can arrange it for you as soon as possible.” Chen Suwen gave her a kind smile.

Zhou Min immediately shut her mouth.

She doesn't want to be sent to the countryside to work as an educated youth.

Moreover, according to her mother, when she was sent to the countryside, she would be arranged to be far away from the boy she liked, so that she would never see him again.

Although that was just someone Zhou Min had a crush on, she still felt it would be better to see him more often.

It would be such a pity if she could never see him again.

When Zhou Cunzong saw his younger sister being "scolded" by their mother, he gave her a gloating look.

"You're in the same boat. Forget about the bicycle. Where would we get that much money at home?"

I went out to take photos today and had a big meal at a state-run restaurant, which cost quite a bit of money.

After today, we'll have to be strapped for cash for a while, so everyone knows we don't have that much money at home.

"Mom? Can't you really give me a bicycle?"

"Although my workplace is very close to home, I still have to take my wife and children to my parents-in-law's house, don't I?"

"And I definitely need to do sales, right? That also requires a bicycle..."

Under Chen Suwen's gaze, Zhou Cunzong's voice grew softer and softer.

"If you want a bicycle, you'll have to pay for it yourself."

Anyway, she insisted that Zhonggong was out of money, and that if they wanted anything, they could use their own savings to buy it; she wouldn't pay for it.
