After finishing her story, Lin Xiaoxiao entrusted Da Bao and Xiao Bao to Bai Hehua and her aunt, while she went out to attend to some business.
There was nothing important to her; she just wanted to get some food from her spatial storage and think about the future situation and growth of the two little ones.
When Han Qiushi returned in the evening, Lin Xiaoxiao asked him to help her kill the fish.
"Qiushi, come over here quickly and help prepare the ingredients."
Han Qiushi had just spent some time with his son and daughter when he strode into the kitchen. He saw that there was not only fish but also beef, and a lot of fresh vegetables on the side.
These are all dishes that Lin Xiaoxiao brought out from her space and made; they can last for three days.
Seeing this, Han Qiushi hugged Lin Xiaoxiao from behind and rested his head on her shoulder. "I am truly unworthy to have married such a good wife as you and have such a wonderful child."
When Lin Xiaoxiao saw Han Qiushi mention the children, she turned around and hugged him: "Speaking of the children, they really came to repay a debt of gratitude. The two little ones are too precocious. Do you think they might have supernatural powers?"
"Could it be because I ate too much of the stuff in the space?"
"Shh, be careful what you say, don't let them hear you."
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded: "I know. I was thinking, is it not convenient for the two little ones to grow up in this dirty place? The people living here are all so important, and the people coming and going are all capable. Should we move away?"
After saying this, Lin Xiaoxiao told Han Qiushi about how the child had cooperated with her that day.
Han Qiushi hugged her tightly: "Watching the children grow up day by day, I've actually noticed that they're a little different from other children."
"Being smart is a good thing, but we need to pay more attention to such a mature mind."
"Actually, I'm fine with living here or not. It would be more tiring for you if you moved out. Should we talk to the little ones more?"
"They're so smart, maybe they understand your concerns and can keep it to themselves?"
Upon hearing this idea, Lin Xiaoxiao's mind immediately cleared.
Yes, why didn't she think of this idea? She always thought that as parents, she should plan everything for her children, but she didn't realize that children can understand what they mean.
Since the child was cooperative in what happened this morning, it's understandable that they would cooperate with the child's tendency to hide their shortcomings.
"Right now, the babies are still young, and the three of us will need your protection in the future."
To put it bluntly, Lin Xiaoxiao is just someone with some fighting skills and props, but she is still very weak in politics and on other levels. She and her child need Han Qiushi's identity to protect them without hesitation.
Han Qiushi is a very qualified father and husband, and he has always worked very hard. Lin Xiaoxiao just doesn't want to arouse his protective instincts and confidence.
Let your husband protect this little family immediately.
"Xiaoxiao, don't worry. No matter what happens, I'll take care of it. Protecting you has always been my responsibility. Don't overthink it."
"Okay, I've always believed in you."
The two talked and were affectionate in the kitchen for a while before starting to work.
The pots and pans in the kitchen never stopped cooking. Lin Xiaoxiao kept circling around the stove, and with Han Qiushi helping out, the house was soon filled with the aroma of stir-fried dishes.
"It smells so good!"
Han Qiulin followed the aroma and quickly walked to the kitchen. He saw two cooked dishes on the side, picked up a piece of fish, and said while eating, "Sister-in-law, every time I eat your cooking, I want to say it's absolutely amazing."
"It smells so good. I only wanted to eat one piece, but it's so delicious that I can't stop eating it."
Lin Xiaoxiao and Han Qiushi had just tasted the food and found it to be quite good. Seeing Han Qiulin stuffing food into his mouth, they couldn't help but laugh and say, "If you can't stop eating, then eat first. We can take out all the dishes we've prepared, and I'm planning to stir-fry another dish so it can be served soon."
Han Qiulin readily agreed, and after taking the dishes out, he began to set out the bowls and chopsticks.
Before long, a sumptuous dinner was served. Lin Xiaoxiao's cooking was always excellent, and everyone enjoyed it. Everyone ate until their bellies were round.
The days passed at a leisurely pace, and Han Qiushi worked harder and harder, with his responsibilities becoming increasingly heavy.
Lin Xiaoxiao, as before, was responsible for the overall design and operation of the factory, and the rest of her time was spent taking care of the children at home.
In the blink of an eye, eight months have passed.
In August, a highly respected elder attended a symposium and decided to reinstate the college entrance examination system.
This news hasn't been officially announced yet, but the Han family already knows about it.
When it was time to eat, Han's father said to the young people in the family:
"The college entrance exam is coming up soon, you guys need to hurry up."
Han Qiushi, Lin Xiaoxiao, and Han Qiulin exchanged glances, their eyes filled with excitement. The country had finally taken a step forward.
Sure enough, in October, the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination appeared in major newspapers, and the atmosphere on the streets felt different.
Lin Xiaoxiao wasn't nervous at all. She had been preparing for the past two years, as had Han Qiulin; they had both known the news in advance.
Li Qiutang was the most nervous. She had received a tip from Lin Xiaoxiao to start reading and reviewing in advance, but she only had two more months. After this news came out, even the Han family came less often. Whenever she had time, she would stay in her dormitory to read and review.
The two little ones are almost a year old and can already walk, but their speech is a bit unclear; they can only express themselves with one or two words.
Seeing that it was lunchtime, Pingping kept pointing at the dishes on the table, indicating that she wanted to eat, which made Bai Hehua very happy.
Bai Hehua and her aunt held the two little ones in their arms and sat them down at the dining table.
"Mom is already cooking for you. You can only eat a little bit of what's on the table."
Lin Xiaoxiao weaned her child off breast milk after about six months, and the rest of the time the child drank formula and ate complementary foods.
Lin Xiaoxiao came from the future, so her approach to raising children differed from that of people in this era. Bai Hehua and her aunt had always been responsible for the adults' meals, while Lin Xiaoxiao was in charge of the children's diet.
The meals are always well-balanced and plentiful, but they just don't taste very good. When it's mealtime, the two little ones insist on sitting at the table. Even if they don't get to eat much, just smelling the food makes them happy.
