The Lu family usually doesn't like extravagance, especially they don't like to be high-profile. Even if they are well off, they won't show it in front of others.
Things like going to a restaurant specifically to buy roast duck usually don't happen.
But Qiao Qingqing has been away for more than a month. The Lu family didn’t notice it before, but during her absence, they began to feel lonely.
There was only one person missing in the family, and there were still five children, but no one was motivated.
Not only the children clung to their mother, but even Mr. Lu and Lu Zhenfeng felt that something was missing.
Not to mention Lu Heng, when his wife is not around, he becomes less talkative.
The whole house is dead silent every day.
When Qiao Qingqing went to school before, the Lu family could still think that she would come back in just five days, and counting the days until Friday every day was not that hard to endure.
But Qiao Qingqing is in the Hongsheng Brigade, and she has reported to her family that it is very likely that she will come in a little over a month, or maybe two months.
The uncertainty of the return date is even more frustrating.
After dinner, Qiao Qingqing went to wash up, and then went back to the room yawning.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw my two daughters, wearing sweet pajamas, lying on the kang and looking at me.
"Mom~ Dad said we can sleep together~"
The little baby smiled sweetly, which melted Qiao Qingqing's heart.
She walked over while wiping her hair, "Okay, Mommy wants to sleep with you too."
After drying her hair, Qiao Qingqing took off her shoes and climbed up. Her twin sisters came closer consciously, one on each side of their mother, with their little heads tilted up to look at her chin.
When Lu Heng came over after cleaning up the kitchen, his wife had already fallen asleep with her two daughters in her arms...
Lu Heng's cold and hard brows softened instantly.
He walked lightly to the edge of the kang, bent down, and kissed them lightly on the forehead one by one.
…
After Qiao Qingqing stayed at home for a few days, she completely recovered and became full of energy again.
At this time, there are only ten days left before school starts.
During this time, Qiao Qingqing and her husband took the children to organize various activities, sometimes having a BBQ at home, and sometimes driving out of the city to the suburbs to get close to nature and have a picnic.
Lu Heng also took his sons into the river to go fishing. The river was now very clear and there were many fish in it. They actually caught several fish weighing more than a pound.
Qiao Qingqing took a piece of iron net from the car, and asked her two daughters to pick up stones to build a "stove", and put the iron net on it to form a simple grill.
Just like that, Qiao Qingqing gutted the fish they caught and made it into grilled fish on the spot.
The children might be curious about how their mother can conjure so many things, but seeing that their father seems to be used to it, gradually, they all think that this is their mother's unique ability.
After a while, they will probably be as calm as Lu Heng.
It’s a pity that happy times are always short-lived.
On her twin sister's birthday, Qiao Qingqing rode her bicycle alone to the grocery store.
No ticket is required to purchase gold jewellery.
This time, she bought one kilogram of gold for each child as usual.
Based on the gold price of 10.736 yuan per gram in 1978, 50 grams of gold would be 5,368 yuan.
A huge sum of more than five thousand yuan was thrown out in one go, and Qiao Qingqing didn't even blink an eye.
She was so wealthy that even the people in the gold shop couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
But she was disguised, with powder on her face that looked like a layer of putty, making it impossible to tell her real appearance.
When Qiao Qingqing paid the bill and left the gold shop with a pound of gold, the shop assistants were still discussing this wealthy female comrade in private, speculating about her background.
