"Yes, he helps us look after the workers in the countryside and pays them wages."
"Grandpa and grandma, will you help us raise chickens?"
"No, your grandparents took Lu Yilan to the countryside to raise chickens in order to make her settle down. But hundreds of chickens died of fowl plague, and Lu Yilan refused to do it.
With the help of your uncle, she became a room attendant at the VIP Hotel."
"Ah...!" Lu Yiming sighed. "My eldest cousin thinks being a waitress is an honor, right? I guess my second uncle gets a headache just looking at her."
Who would want to be a waiter abroad if they have real skills? Although waiters abroad can get tips, everyone knows that tips are just a way for the powerful and wealthy to show their superiority.
My cousin is not only overambitious but also a bit selfish. I wonder if she would offend customers if she worked as a waitress.
Lu Yiming suspected that his cousin went to work as a room attendant in the hotel because she wanted to find a partner there. After all, those who could stay in the VIP building were all capable.
Fortunately, Lu Yilan is not his biological sister, otherwise he would really have a headache. When his uncles and aunts come, he will definitely persuade them to let their younger brothers and sisters read more, as reading more will help them understand things.
When the triplets came home from school, they suddenly saw their eldest brother Lu Yiming and one of them screamed with excitement.
"Ah~ah~ah! Big brother is really back."
"Brother, welcome home..."
"Brother, you're so tall, aren't you 1.9 meters tall?"
"Brother, where are our gifts?"
“…”
Seeing the children chattering around their eldest son and asking questions excitedly, Su Yan suddenly interrupted and said, "Okay, put down your schoolbags first. Yiming is not in a hurry to go back to the United States now, so why are you in a hurry?"
The triplets obediently put down their schoolbags. Lu Yian stood beside Lu Yiming and compared himself to him again and again. He said with some worry, "Big brother looks 1.9 meters tall. I don't know if I can exceed 1.85 meters in the end."
Lu Yiming patted Lu Yian on the shoulder and said jokingly, "You are our future leader. You don't need to be that tall, or you will scare them. Most leaders are very short."
Lu Yian rolled his eyes at Lu Yiming. "You really are my good brother. Even if my height doesn't exceed 1.85 meters, I'm not short, okay? In the north, gay men are considered short if they are less than 1.75 meters tall."
Lu Yining agreed, "Second brother is right. Everyone, please rest assured that I will eat less in the future so that you can eat more, and you can grow a few more centimeters. Second brother, where do you want to add these centimeters?"
Lu Yining's evil eyes swept back and forth between Lu Yian's upper and lower body, and Lu Yian couldn't help but clamp his legs together.
"What are you talking about, you little bastard? If it could really grow a few centimeters, it would definitely grow on the legs."
"Alright, alright, don't be angry. We are still young and have a lot of growth to do. Big brother can grow to 1.9 meters. We are identical twins and we will definitely be taller than him."
Seeing them arguing, Su Yan simply asked them to take off their shoes and socks and measure their height against the wall.
I didn't know the measurement, but Lu Yining is actually 1.86 meters tall, Lu Yian is 1.83 meters tall, Lu Yiru is actually 1.75 meters tall, and Lu Yiming is 1.91 meters tall.
"Yiming, last time you told me you were only 1.89 meters tall, how come you are 1.91 meters tall now?"
"Maybe the measuring tools are different, or maybe I've grown a little bit."
Lu Yian, the slowest growing child in the family, fell silent. Why was he the slowest growing of the four siblings? Perhaps adding some sugar to the milk powder tonight would help it grow?
Lu Yian was still depressed about his height. Lu Yiru looked at the scale on the wall and was worried that she would be kicked out of next year's pilot selection early. What should she do? Should she go to see her uncle during the winter vacation?
Not growing tall is a problem, and growing too tall is also a problem. Why does life have so many problems?
The four siblings chatted for a while, and then Lu Yiming went back to his room and took out the gifts for his younger brothers and sisters. Lu Yitan and Lu Yining got pens, and Lu Yiru got a white TUTU skirt.
Su Yan smiled and asked, "Isn't this skirt cheap?"
"Well, this dress cost a thousand dollars."
Lu Yining opened his mouth in surprise and asked, "Brother, this mosquito net-like dance skirt costs a thousand yuan?"
"Yeah, it's a big brand. Didn't you see the rhinestones on it?"
"Big brother, you are so generous to your sister. Where did you get so much money to buy us gifts?"
"I, your brother, made some money from an investment. The pens I bought for you weren't cheap either. Each one cost over a hundred yuan."
Lu Yining thought about it and realized it was indeed not cheap. The domestic pens they usually used were only 2.5 yuan each, and the most expensive pen their mother bought them was only a few dozen yuan. But their eldest brother actually bought them pens worth hundreds of yuan. Well, his eldest brother was indeed good to them, but he only had one sister, so he should love her.
Lu Yining opened the pen case, took a closer look, and raised the corner of his mouth, "Brother, you are a very nice person. When you get married, I will also make money to buy you a gift."
Lu Yirou held the beautiful gauze skirt and choked up, "Thank you, brother. I will treat you well in the future."
Lu Yian also said: "Thank you for the gift, big brother. I like it very much."
Seeing the children loving each other and living happily together, Su Yan's heart softened. She hoped that when they grew up, they would not have a big fight over the uneven distribution of family property.
Since her family’s private restaurant opened, she rarely cooks for her family except during the Chinese New Year.
Lu Yiming rarely comes back, so Su Yan plans to cook dinner for him herself. Thinking that he has eaten so much fast food abroad, she plans to make some home-cooked meals for him.
"You guys chat slowly, I'll go check out the kitchen."
Lu Yining asked: "Mom, are you going to make something delicious for your eldest brother personally since he's back?"
"Make two dishes for your brother that he likes."
"Mom, let's make a boiled fish. Big brother likes it, and we like it too."
"Okay, I'll do it for you."
Su Yan went back to the kitchen to work. The four siblings sat down to chat. Lu Yiming asked Lu Yining and Lu Yiru, "You will take the college entrance examination next year. Have you ever thought about studying abroad?"
Lu Yirou replied directly: "Brother, I probably can't be a ballet dancer with my height. I plan to be a pilot like my uncle."
"If you don't continue to grow, there's still hope. But if you keep growing, you might not pass the physical examination."
"I don't think I'll grow any more. My appetite has decreased recently, and I don't have any bone pain. I used to grow too fast, and sometimes my legs felt a little swollen."
"Rou Rou, let me ask you, if you really can't become a pilot, what are you going to do?"
"I can still be a soldier even if I can't fly a plane, right? Big brother, you don't have to worry about me. Since you guys aren't going to be soldiers, I'll have to do it myself."
