Lin Xiaoxiao had been highly focused for the past two days, and finally finished the last exam. Not only was she relieved, but the atmosphere in the entire exam room also changed.
After Lin Xiaoxiao came out of the examination room, she found Han Qiushi waiting at the door with the children. Ping An and An An had their eyes wide open and were staring at the door. When they saw Lin Xiaoxiao, they immediately shouted, "Mom!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Lin Xiaoxiao looked around and saw the faces of the two little ones. She quickly walked over.
"Aren't you cold? Why don't you stay at home with Grandpa and Grandma and wait for me?"
Lin Xiaoxiao was dressed very warmly. She had been wearing Han Qiushi's military overcoat for the past two days, and she had prepared gloves and a hat. However, she still felt cold sitting in the examination room.
After getting into the car, she couldn't help but hug and kiss Ping An.
"Let's go home. The family has prepared a lot of good food today, including a lamb hot pot, to nourish you three students who are taking the exam."
After arriving home, Li Qiutang and Han Qiulin returned shortly afterward.
After everyone had arrived, Grandpa Han asked Lin Xiaoxiao, "How is it? Are you confident?"
"Grandpa, I feel fine. There shouldn't be any major problems."
Hearing Lin Xiaoxiao say such a thing, Grandpa Han smiled so broadly that his eyes disappeared: "Good, good, good. If you can say that, it's probably a sure thing."
Lin Xiaoxiao never exaggerates and is always realistic in her words and deeds. Now that she says there's no big problem, it's definitely a sure thing. It seems like a student from her family will be going to attend a prestigious university.
After asking Lin Xiaoxiao, Grandpa Han turned to Han Qiulin and Li Qiutang, who said the questions were not difficult, but they couldn't guarantee which school would be chosen.
These words made the old man so happy that he slapped his thigh. Judging from what they said, the questions were not difficult, and the results would probably not be too bad. Even if they couldn't get into the top schools, the family would at least have two more college students.
Anything that allows him to go to university will make the old man happy.
You can't force someone to read. Take him, for example. He used to be a soldier and fought in wars. He didn't know a single word, let alone read. It wasn't until he became a minor leader that he started to pick up a pen and gradually learned a few words.
However, he just couldn't look at books. As soon as he saw those densely packed words, he felt sleepy. He just couldn't get the knowledge into his head. Only military books could he barely manage to read.
He has absolutely no talent for studying. Since he himself is like this, he doesn't have high expectations for the younger generation. If you don't have the brains and talent, forcing yourself to study will only add to your burden and waste your brain cells. It still depends on whether you have the talent or not.
"No matter which school you get into, it's definitely a prestigious one. When you receive your acceptance letters, come find me to collect your money; there will be a reward for each one," the old man promised with a smile.
Seeing that the old man was so easy to talk to, Bai Hehua, Han's father, and even Han Chengjun made a promise that there would be a reward.
“Great! I’m taking this reward. I’ll use it to buy treats for the little ones,” Lin Xiaoxiao replied with a smile.
This noon, my family stewed a big pot of braised mutton, and the table was piled high with dishes. Lin Xiaoxiao had also brought over a lot of green vegetables recently. Everyone in the family knows that Lin Xiaoxiao knows someone from the black market, and she always brings over a lot of fresh things, so they're used to it.
They ate in peace without asking where it came from.
They would only give Lin Xiaoxiao some financial assistance privately. The family's food and drink couldn't always be paid for by Lin Xiaoxiao; they were all people with income, and they couldn't do that.
Having a hot pot meal in winter, with some dishes you like, is incredibly comforting.
Ping An and An were very interested in hot pot because they could handle spicy food, which made it very flavorful. However, Lin Xiaoxiao controlled them and didn't let them eat too much, for fear that it would make them need to go to the toilet.
Because the food they ate afterwards was mostly bland, the two little ones didn't get enough to eat.
"Mom, I'm not full."
"Then we won't have hot pot tonight, let's eat dinner instead," Lin Xiaoxiao replied, handing each child a steamed egg custard. "Eat slowly, Mom will wash some fruit and bring it over."
After the college entrance examination, Lin Xiaoxiao rested at home for a few days. During this time, she took her children to Han Qiushi's army unit. Just as Han Qiushi had said, An'an especially liked looking at handsome men, while Pingping was still fond of firearms.
During their time in the military, Lin Xiaoxiao and Han Qiushi began to educate the children.
It's human nature to admire handsome men and be interested in weapons, but don't go to extremes. Be prepared and exercise self-control.
Girls are a vulnerable group. If they are beautiful but cannot protect themselves, their beauty can be a disaster. The child is still young, and both parents can protect their daughter. But when she grows up and develops a naive personality, it will be dangerous.
Lin Xiaoxiao earnestly explained to An'an what things women need to pay attention to. She also planned that when An'an grew up a bit, she would start to strengthen her body and learn some martial arts for self-defense.
Instill in Pingping some ideas about protecting the country and its people. When you have the ability, you can possess these things, and even create them, but you must not have dangerous or extreme thoughts.
Lin Xiaoxiao seems to be worrying unnecessarily, but what parent doesn't want their child to be well?
When it comes to your own child, you can't help but overthink things. You worry so much about them, you're afraid they'll melt in your mouth or break in your hands. It's hard to be a person, but it's even harder to be a parent.
That morning, before the alarm clock rang, Lin Xiaoxiao was woken up by An'an, who said, "Mommy, I want to wear my pretty little dress."
An'an pointed to a little red dress with several pretty little flowers embroidered on it.
I don't know who my daughter took after, but she's exceptionally vain.
Last night I kept thinking about the dress, and even wanted to sleep in it, but Lin Xiaoxiao ruthlessly rejected me.
Early in the morning, An'an was still thinking about the dress. Lin Xiaoxiao squinted and chuckled, "Okay, I'll change you into it in a bit. You go wash up with your brother and dad first, and I'll change your clothes later."
"Then Mom will comb your hair into a Nezha hairstyle. You'll definitely be the cutest and prettiest little kid today." Lin Xiaoxiao woke up to find that besides her daughter and herself, the two men were not in the blankets.
Pingping was taken out to get ready early by Han Qiushi. Not only did they get up early today, but everyone in the family got up as well.
Today is Han Qiulin and Li Qiutang's wedding day. The two little ones said they want to greet the guests with their aunt and be the bride's flower girls, so they must dress up beautifully and handsomely.
