Chapter 18

It was already dark when the four sisters returned home. Even if the people in the compound were not asleep, they were all staying in their houses. There was no one in the yard.

After returning home and putting things in order, Bi Chunliu said to Bi Weiguo who was boiling water in the kitchen: "Weiguo, boil some more water. We have used up too much dirt on this journey."

"Okay, big sister. This pot will be ready soon. You and Xia He will clean it first, and Lao Si and I will wait for the next pot."

Bi Chunliu: "Okay."

Uncle San stopped staring at his work, and Bi Xiahe felt much more relaxed. She poked her head out with a smile and said, "Thank you, Second Brother."

"You're welcome." Bi Weiguo stood in front of the stove and waved his hand.

Fortunately, the weather is not that cold now. I have been running around, and even if it is not convenient to take a shower, I have to wipe myself, otherwise I will smell.

After the shower, Bi Qiuguo and Bi Xiahe fell asleep soon after, as they didn't chat much. Bi Chunliu stretched out her hand, trying to see if she could discern anything in the darkness. Something seemed off about her. She had practiced later, but skill and strength were two different things. Had she been this strong in her previous life? She had noticed her strength had increased significantly while swinging the rope that afternoon.

As Bi Chunliu was thinking, he fell asleep. He thought in a daze that although he was a little tired today, at least he had accomplished one thing. He hoped that his uncle's memory would last longer.

.

Early in the morning, Bi Chunliu was awakened by the clanging sounds in the yard. She didn't know if it was because she was tired or because she felt more at ease, but she hadn't even dreamed the previous night. There was no watch at home, so Bi Chunliu lifted a corner of the curtain to see the sun and what was going on outside.

By the pool in the yard, Nie Xiangnan, the fourth son of the Nie family, was washing up.

Bi Qiuguo was also woken up. She groggily came over to look outside. After just one glance, she immediately woke up and hurriedly put on her clothes. She even used a free hand to pat Bi Xiahe, who was still dazed. "Oh no! This is bad! Third sister, hurry up and get up. Sister Xiangnan is already up and washing up. We're going to be late!"

"What?!" Bi Xiahe sat up with a start. Sister Xiangnan had always been a magical figure in their compound, always punctual for everything. If the school asked her to arrive at 8 o'clock, she would definitely not be a minute early! If she was already washing up, she would be really too late.

Bi Qiuguo put on his clothes and went to the other room to call Bi Weiguo. Seeing that his elder sister was still looking outside, he said anxiously, "Sister, if you don't get up soon, you will be late for work."

Going to work? I'll go! Bi Chunliu also got busy. He hadn't been to work for many years and had forgotten about going to work.

Bi Xiahe packed up the fastest, put on her backpack, ran a few steps and came back.

Bi Chunliu had just finished washing her face and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Sister, we didn't prepare lunch last night, so we have to go buy something to eat today."

"Go get it. Do you know where the money is?"

"Know!"

Bi Qiuguo had also packed up and laughed, "Hehehe, Third Sister, don't forget to get your food coupons. Let's have noodles for lunch today, shall we? I want white flour!"

Bi Chunliu: "Let's eat, let's eat. This month will be over soon anyway. Let's make dumplings on the first day of the holiday."

"Okay! Let's eat dumplings!" Bi Qiuguo and Bi Weiguo cheered.

Bi Xiahe also grinned, "Sister, can we take the biscuits we didn't finish in the past two days and eat them this morning?"

"Okay, let's see how much is left. If it's not enough, you can eat more at noon. I'll get up a little earlier tomorrow to cook." Bi Chunliu bent down to put on his shoes, thinking that he really couldn't get up so late in the morning anymore. After all, it is not as convenient now as it will be in the future. If he doesn't eat at home in the morning, he can't buy anything to eat outside.

"Bi Qiuguo, are you going to school or not?!" someone shouted from outside.

Bi Qiuguo shouted outside: "I'm coming, I'm coming!" He grabbed his schoolbag, called out "Sister, I'm leaving," and rushed out.

"Sister, we're leaving too." Bi Xiahe and Bi Weiguo followed behind and ran out.

Three people who needed to go to school hurried out. Bi Chunliu thought that he had to prepare something to fill his stomach and leave quickly. It would be a good thing if he hadn't been to work for a long time, and he didn't know if he could adapt.
