Back to the alley, Wang Cuifeng talked to Qiu's mother for a long time, and finally got to the point, which was to borrow a notebook for her child.
"Oh, her aunt, please sit for a while. Yuling made special arrangements before she left. My three little ones were so noisy that I almost forgot about it."
Li Qingmei went to Qiu Yuling's room and took out a stack of notebooks. "Here, Xiaonan, take them. Yuling packed them before she left, but she was in a hurry to go back with her father and didn't have time to look for you..."
Zhou Xiaonan flipped through Qiu Yuling's notebook, which was exactly the one she used every day. "Aunt, I'll take it back and copy it and then return it to Yuling."
"No need. Yuling said she copied an extra copy to help her memorize it better. You can take this one and use it."
Wang Cuifeng praised the person as if she was not caring about her life, and the mother and daughter went back with the notes.
"Did you see that? How did they study? Seeing something a thousand times is not as good as going through it once. They've gone through it more than once. No wonder they were able to pass the exam even though they're younger than you!"
Zhou Xiaonan rolled her eyes. She always admitted that others were better than her, but she just didn't like to listen to her mother. What should she do?
The uncle waited for a long time, but the person was not found. Could Zhou Hongfang just sit there and wait for the butcher? She quickly cut the body with her own knife.
Wang Xiaomai also joined in the fun, and the kids gathered together to talk about study and their future.
Speaking of which, Qiu Yuling is really lucky to have a family tradition of learning. Both her mother Qiu and her uncles have tried their best to support the children, regardless of gender, to study.
It was precisely because of this that she had this plan the moment Mr. Qiu called her home.
I hope this is helpful and can help them get out of this dilemma.
As for why she didn't give her cousins the pills, Qiu Yuling had thought about it carefully. She had done a lot and made a lot of mistakes. Without being completely sure about someone's character, she would not and was unwilling to take the risk.
And that included herself. She did have cheats, but they were also learned from experience. Not to mention her third brother, Qiu Dashan, who had also laid the foundation entirely on his own. He only took a pill to wake up the brain at the last moment to prevent himself from getting confused.
Basically, this step will only work if you have something in your mind.
After Grandma Yuling and her grandchildren exchanged greetings, she also went to the kitchen. "Hongfang, Xiaomai, have you two ever heard of Wang Xifen?"
The old lady didn't say anything, but she was always thinking about something.
Her old son, who was very narrow-minded, was completely exposed by her in just a few words.
It is said that a son becomes independent of his mother when he grows up, but she also has to find out where the other party comes from. Although she doesn't mind her remarriage, she still has to tell whether he is good or not.
"Wang Xifen? What Wang Xifen?" Zhou Hongfang was confused.
Wang Xiaomai's heart skipped a beat. Isn't this her cousin?
When they met at the supply and marketing cooperative, Li Qingtong took the initiative to help deliver the grain because Xifen was her cousin. She didn't think much of it. She always thought Qingtong was still a child, and Xifen was married again...
Who would have thought that after just one walk, the two of them would start talking to each other.
She didn't know this at first, but when she went back to her parents' home a few days ago, her cousin came over. They chatted happily at first, but soon she started asking about her in-laws' family in all sorts of ways.
She especially asked Li Qingtong and her mother-in-law a lot, wondering if there was anything she didn't understand.
I have said it and tried to persuade her, but I don't know how much the girl has listened to me.
"You from the Qingchuan family, do you know?" The old lady felt something was wrong when she saw the second son's wife's vague eyes that didn't dare to look at her, and Xiaomai stopped calling.
"Mom, she's my cousin, but I didn't initiate this. I've tried to stop it and persuaded Xifen twice. She should have rejected Qingtong. We can talk to Qingtong about another one later, and then there'll be nothing to worry about..."
The more Wang Xiaomai spoke, the lower her voice became. She didn't know why she felt so guilty.
The old lady's expression softened. It was good that she wasn't interfering. "Tell me about your cousin in detail. I want to listen first."
Wang Xiaomai did not dare to hide anything and told the whole story in detail from beginning to end.
"...That's right. My cousin's family had their fortune told a while ago. Their parents took their birth date and eight characters and asked our uncle to act as a matchmaker. The girl wasn't even old enough at the time, so they just arranged it that way.
Later, he joined the army and was old. Xifen's mother-in-law kept asking him to come back, but after the banquet was held, he told Xifen that he was not happy and went back. He was gone..."
The old lady asked for some more details, and Wang Xiaomai told her everything she knew, not daring to exaggerate or cover up anything. If her cousin became her sister-in-law, if anything bad happened in the future, both sides would blame her, so she was more resistant to this matter than others.
After the old lady finished talking about all this, she didn't say anything else, but she didn't leave either. Zhou Hongfang felt anxious when she heard this. She wanted to wait for the old lady to leave so that she could talk more with the second son's wife, but her mother-in-law just sat in front of the stove without moving.
The old lady was already thinking of other things. "Hongfang, Xiaomai, out of this ten yuan, you two can each take five. Your eldest sister's eldest daughter-in-law will be out of confinement in a few days. You can go over and get a new basin then."
Both daughters-in-law pushed hard, "Isn't this as it should be? How could I take yours? It would embarrass us."
"I've taken it out, so you can take it. It's up to you to decide which part to use. What you prepare is up to you. Even if you use the money for your children's education, it's your decision."
After saying that, regardless of how the two of them refused, she stood up and went back to her room to rest on the kang.
On this side, the chicken has been stewed and the pancakes have been baked. All that’s left is to wait for a few men to come back and stretch the noodles.
They waited left and right but no one came. The two sisters-in-law were discussing how to scoop out some of the leftovers from the basin so they could eat them first when they heard the chattering and excitement of the man and his sons.
"Mom, we're back." Li Qingfeng's feet were still outside the door, but his voice had already run into the house.
The old lady just closed her eyes and propped herself up to sit up.
"Mom, we had a great catch today! We dug a hole in Yancao Lake and caught several big grass carps. Each one weighed seven or eight kilograms."
"Yes, Mom, we also caught quite a few pheasants and rabbits. The water has come up this year, and the grass is growing beautifully. The rabbits are eating the crops. The team leader said that we will continue to organize everyone to catch rabbits in the next few days."
Li Qingtong rushed over in a flash, got in front of his elder brother, and kept showing off, as if all the credit was his.
"Speak more quietly and speak properly. Your yelling is making me dizzy." The old lady was upset when she saw her youngest son. She was about to say something to the eldest son when he rushed up to her without any regard.
Look at what he can do.
