Chapter 630 Care
Fang quickly prepared the meal and then squeezed into the lobby to join in the fun.
Qian accepted all the gifts and said, "Alright, alright, it's too late today. We'll divide the things tomorrow. If you have anything to say, we can talk tomorrow. Let the fourth brother and the others eat first. Third brother, go to the county town early tomorrow morning and ask the shop to close for a day so that your mother and the others can come back."
Zhou Lixue agreed.
Everyone moved their things into the main room, and Qian took Manbao to have dinner. Manbao said, "Mom, we ate some dry food on the way."
"The dry food is all cold, and it's already late. You must be hungry. You should eat some. Your fourth sister-in-law made some noodles for you."
Manbao agreed.
Old Zhou and Qian sat by and watched her eat noodles. After just three months of not seeing her, Manbao had changed a lot.
The main thing was that she had become whiter. Her fair face was as white as the piece of white jade around Young Master Bai's waist. She also seemed to have more flesh on her cheeks, and she had grown a little taller...
Qian was very pleased and asked softly, "Every time your fourth brother comes back, he says you're studying with Mr. Zhuang over there and learning medicine at Jishitang. But when I ask him more details, he doesn't know. So, tell me what you've learned."
Manbao enthusiastically picked out some interesting things to tell her, and the one he talked about the most was the story in the pharmacy.
There's no way around it. Every day, every patient who comes to see the doctor has a story, and there are always some impressive things happening.
Not only Qian, but also Old Zhou who was standing beside her was stunned.
After Manbao finished his noodles, he talked with his parents for a while before washing up and getting ready for bed.
Zhou Silang was naturally with his wife and children. Even Zhou Lijun was pulled into Zhou Erlang and his wife's house to eat noodles and talk.
Zhou Erlang asked Zhou Lijun, "Will your aunt go to Yizhou City again after returning this time?"
Zhou Lijun said as a matter of course: "Of course I went. Doesn't my aunt have to study with Mr. Zhuang? And Dad, do you know how powerful my aunt is now?"
Zhou Lijun raised his head, his eyes twinkling as he described the scene of his aunt, hands behind her back, reciting medical textbooks in the pharmacy. He said, "When Doctor Ji knew that his aunt was going home for ten days, he was so reluctant to let her go. He wanted to keep her in the pharmacy to learn medical skills. Whenever I went to pick her up, I would always see Doctor Ji and Shopkeeper Zheng looking at her with shining eyes, as bright as candles."
Zhou Erlang: ...this description.
Feng sighed, "I can see that. This Yizhou City is really different. Look how long you've been gone, and you're like a completely different person since you came back. You're chattering non-stop while eating noodles..."
Zhou Lijun immediately calmed down and lowered his head to continue eating noodles.
Zhou Erlang smiled and said, "There's nothing wrong with being talkative. By the way, Erya, have you found a job in Yizhou City?"
Zhou Lijun shook his head sadly. "Dad, I've become acquainted with the people in several alleys on that street, and I'm also familiar with several shops, but no one is willing to hire me as a bookkeeper."
Feng said, "You don't have to be a bookkeeper. You can do some work like washing vegetables and dishes. At least you can earn some money."
Zhou Lijun said, "I don't want to do that. Instead of doing all this, I'd rather follow Fourth Uncle and help him with his accounting and business."
Feng couldn't help but blink, "Does your fourth uncle pay you?"
"Of course I have to give it to you," Zhou Lijun said proudly, "I'm very good at accounting for Fourth Uncle and I keep a very good account book."
Feng asked curiously, "How much does your fourth uncle earn on a round trip?"
Zhou Lijun lowered his head and ate all the noodles in the bowl. He said, "Mom, I'm just the accountant. When the teacher taught us, he said that accountants must know how to keep secrets, so you should ask Fourth Uncle about this matter."
Feng knocked her on the head and said, "I just asked in advance. Anyway, the account book will be handed over to your grandparents sooner or later."
"You'll know then." Zhou Lijun stood up with the bowl in his hand and said, "Mom, I bought some things for you, Dad, my second brother and my younger sister. I'll find them for you tomorrow. I'm going to wash up and go to bed first."
Feng stood up and said, "Go find some clothes. I'll go to the kitchen and get some hot water. Even though it's hot, you can't take a cold shower... You're such a particular family, you have to take a shower every day. I wonder how much water that wastes."
Zhou Lijun winked at her father and ran away first.
Zhou Silang naturally had his wife who felt sorry for him. He was different from Manbao and the others. He had specially packed a package and kept it with him all the time.
He took it back to his room immediately. After he came out of the shower, he opened the package, inserted a silver hairpin into Fang's hair, and brought his son over to ask, "Is your mother pretty?"
Liutou nodded repeatedly and said in a baby voice, "Beautiful!"
Fang blushed, glared at Zhou Silang and said, "Aren't you tired yet? Go and rest."
Zhou Silang chuckled and agreed.
Manbao made his bed, threw himself on it, rolled over happily twice, then turned off the light and entered the system.
She received a new email from Teacher Mo, browsed the forum, relaxed her body and mind, and soon felt sleepy. Since she was back home, Manbao was not in a hurry, so she left and went to sleep when she felt sleepy.
She woke up at an early hour the next day, but she didn't want to get up, so she turned over and continued to doze with her eyes closed.
She fell asleep again at some point, and was finally woken up by a knock on the door.
Manbao rubbed his eyes and opened the door, only to find that it was bright outside and the sun was already high in the sky.
Two little kids were lying outside her door, knocking on it with their little hands raised.
When they saw Manbao opening the door, the two of them quickly withdrew their hands and turned to run away.
Manbao grabbed one of them with each hand and shouted happily, "Five, six, can you speak now? Call me little aunt."
The fifth and sixth ones didn't recognize Manbao very well, and they screamed loudly, attracting Fang.
Fang held the two children in her arms and smiled at Manbao, "They can both speak now. At least everyone in the family can call them. My aunt has been gone for three months, so they probably don't remember much."
Fang coaxed them, "Don't you remember your aunt? She used to give you sweet candies."
Manbao couldn't help but sigh, "Their memory is really bad. I remember my memory was very good when I was a child."
Fang: "...Auntie, few people can have a memory like yours."
Since he had already gotten up, it was naturally impossible for him to go back to lie down. Manbao went into the house to get dressed, then washed up and went to the front to have breakfast and distribute gifts to his family.
Zhou Dalang and his men went to the fields long ago. The wheat in the fields was not yet fully yellow, so they were not in a hurry at all. They only harvested two pieces of land that could be harvested. As soon as the sun got hot, they immediately finished work and went home.
It's a good time to have lunch and watch the gifts being distributed.
