"It's no wonder that someone who is lazy, good-for-nothing, and has no sense of propriety was kicked out of Qi Laoliu's family."

Zhou Ruilan added, "She's incredibly lazy. She doesn't do any chores, and even her mother washes her underwear!"

Zhou Chang'an shouted, "A woman should speak more politely."

Zhou Ruilan muttered under her breath, puzzled, "They're just underwear, how can they be so refined..."

Zhou Chang'an sighed and said, "Never mind, anyway, the educated youth's cave dwelling has been renovated and she's about to move out."

Zhao Chunmiao gave a heavy snort and said, "I haven't told you yet, but Xiao Liao told me that she wants to continue living in our house and doesn't want to move to the educated youth settlement."

Zhou Chang'an's expression turned serious. "We can't let her have her way."

Zhou Ruilan exclaimed excitedly, "Let me kick her out—I've wanted to stop living with her for a long time!"

Zhou Ruilan had it all planned out: she'd catch a snake today and put it under the reed mat where Liao Yujie slept; it would definitely scare Liao Yujie so much she'd pee her pants! How could she not run away?

But Zhou Chang'an did not agree and warned her not to do anything reckless.

"I will talk to Xiao Liao."

There were only three people in the Zhou family eating. After Liao Yujie finished her topic, a brief silence fell.

After a while, Zhao Chunmiao brought up the telegram sent back by Zhou Weiguang again and asked Zhou Chang'an, "You still haven't said what other meaning San'er's telegram has?"

"Nothing..." Zhou Chang'an paused for a moment, then said, "I was just wondering, it's just asking me to take care of someone, why did I have to rush to send a telegram?"

Normally, we write letters for everything, and only send telegrams for urgent matters.

Zhao Chunmiao thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. She said, "San'er just wanted to send a telegram. Why else? You old man, you're just too cunning. You make simple things complicated."

Zhou Chang'an ignored her and continued to ponder, "How could he know Xiao Qin, the educated youth? What's their relationship?"

Zhao Chunmiao clicked her tongue. "We're eating. Don't overthink things. You'll just get all confused! How else could we have met? He's never even left that military unit. He must have met through a comrade or someone else."

Zhou Ruilan suddenly said, "Could this young Qin, the educated youth, be Third Brother's girlfriend?"
