Although "One Hundred Thousand Whys" has about twenty volumes, and it is said that the twenty-first volume will be published soon, Qin Rou still bought all twenty volumes.

Qin Rou just flipped through it casually, and she found that this version of "One Hundred Thousand Whys" also has many advantages. The answers are all quoted from quotations, but the content inside is indeed very rich, with various knowledge in mathematics, physics, astronomy, geography, and meteorology, and even a lot of industrial and agricultural production knowledge.

This set of books is a rare science popular science book in this era.

As a college student who has received contemporary scientific education, Qin Rou found that some of the content in it seems to be in line with... the requirements of the college entrance examination? These knowledge of mathematics, physics, geography, astronomy, and meteorology? They will also be able to pass the exam.

The college entrance examination will be resumed in two years, not to mention that it has just been resumed. The questions will be very simple. Even the third grade students who studied in junior high and high school in the 1960s have a good foundation, let alone others.

Compared with the new century test questions that are repeated, I believe that the college entrance examination questions now will not be too difficult. Qin Rou also heard an older history teacher say that she was also in school in the 1980s and 1990s. When they took the exam, there was a question asking what Napoleon was.

Surprisingly, few people knew it.

Note that she later became a high school history teacher.

This teacher told Qin Rou that she answered very straightforwardly at the time: It means holding a broken wheel.

Qin Rou: "..."

She planned to send a set of "One Hundred Thousand Whys" to her sister and brother-in-law's house for her two nephews and nieces, Chen Juanjuan and Chen Jinghua. Now they are in junior high school, and it is also good for them to flip through these books when they have nothing to do.

Qin Rou bought another set of "One Hundred Thousand Whys" and sent it to her sister and brother-in-law's house. After her brother-in-law flipped through it, he found that there was nothing wrong with it, so he put it in the outer living room and left it for Juanjuan and Jinghua to read in the future.

"Thank you, aunt."

After leaving her sister and brother-in-law's house, Qin Rou went to the kindergarten and met with Principal Wu Min by the way. She asked her if she had the first and second editions of "One Hundred Thousand Whys".

As a preschool educator, Wu Min really collected a lot of "One Hundred Thousand Whys".

The first two versions were criticized at some point, but now it's already 1975, and many of them have been released.

"You want to see the first and second editions? How about I give you a set? I have quite a few of them." The first and second editions don't have as much content as the third edition, but Wu Min has collected quite a few of the first two editions.

"How can I be embarrassed? I just want to borrow them and have a look."

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. I have two sets that are already worn out. Just think of them as my gifts to Zhou Zhou and Dumpling." After much persuasion,

Director Wu Min gave Qin Rou two versions of the old book, which were indeed worn-out old books. Qin Rou took them home and put them on the bookshelf at home.

Now on the bookshelf at home, in addition to basic dictionaries, red books, cultural and common sense books, Lu Ge's books on ships and military affairs, her novels, and agricultural books such as vegetable planting, pruning and grafting, there are also "One Hundred Thousand Whys" for the children.

Qin Rou put her hands on her hips and took a look with great satisfaction.

Chen Juanjuan and Jinghua are going to take the college entrance examination. As for whether Qin Rou will take the exam, she decided to wait and see the situation.

At the end of the last month, it is time to prepare for the Chinese New Year. This year, only Lu Yan and his wife will spend the New Year's Eve with their two children Zhou Zhou and Dumpling.

Every time at the end of the year, everyone's pace is the same, that is, preparing a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner and buying new clothes. Food, clothing, housing and transportation, food and clothing are the first priority. In such a difficult era, the Chinese New Year is the time to enjoy.

The children are the happiest, they will have new clothes to wear. Qin Rou made two sets of new clothes for the two little ones at home. Zhou Zhou and Dumpling are very happy and plan to wear them on New Year's Eve.

"Mom, new clothes, new clothes!!!"

"Wear new clothes!!"

"It's the New Year, the whole family will change into new clothes." Qiongzhou Island is good, because the temperature here is not low, and it saves fabric when wearing clothes. When there is time this year, Qin Rou will go to Guangzhou to buy some Dacron fabric.

There should be more Dacron fabric in Guangzhou in 1975.

Then I will make more beautiful clothes for the children, but the children are still young, Dacron fabric is beautiful but not breathable, so it is most comfortable to use cotton fabric for them, which absorbs sweat and is breathable.

"Xiao Qin, let me see the clothes you made. How do you sew a bighead carp on them?"

Huahua's mother, who recently bought a sewing machine at home, came to Lu's house to ask Qin Rou for advice. The sewing machine in her home is not only for her, but her mother-in-law and sister-in-law Liu Xiaoyu even wish that the sewing machine is only for them.

The mother-in-law of Li Qinghua's family is also strange. After she arrived on the island, she didn't want to go back. Even her sister-in-law wanted to find a military officer to marry here, but she never found a suitable candidate.

The sister-in-law was not satisfied with the ones she liked. Either they were too old, or they were divorced and had a child. If she married, she would become a stepmother. But the young and unmarried military officers that her sister-in-law liked didn't like her.

This sister-in-law has high standards. She wants to compare herself with her own brother. In addition, Li Qinghua often interacts with Qin Rou. When she saw the young captain of the Lu Da in her family, she was even more "ambitious".

She didn't want to be worse than her sister-in-law.

There are really few young unmarried people who have achieved this position. As for others, she didn't dare to bet on them, fearing that they would be mediocre.

After Political Commissar Liu introduced people to his own sister several times, he stopped introducing people and let her do it herself.

Li Qinghua's sister-in-law stayed on the island and made friends with some sisters-in-law in the family compound and asked others to introduce her to potential partners.

After introducing them to each other, there were not many suitable candidates.

In addition, people heard that her sister-in-law was Li Qinghua, so they had to think privately about whether this girl would be treated as an ancestor when she was married home as a daughter-in-law in the future?

The sister-in-law cried and said, "Sister-in-law has ruined my reputation!"

Li Qinghua thought, do you need me to ruin it? The man who came to her house to eat and drink for free and eat her brother did not do anything. The people in the family courtyard are not blind, so they can't see what kind of person he is?

Huahua's mother still has a decent job now, earning money to support herself, which is not bad in the family courtyard. This is also the reason why she temporarily ignores her mother-in-law and sister-in-law and relies on her own family.

Anyway, whether the sister-in-law can get married or not has nothing to do with her, Li Qinghua.

"Xiao Qin, I want to learn the craft from you. Later, I also want to make some beautiful clothes for my daughter."

"I see that the elementary school girls in the city wear beautiful skirts as school uniforms, which are so beautiful. Now that I have a daughter, I will dress her up more in the future."

"Isn't there a saying that goes, 'A loving mother sews clothes for her son's body'? Here I am sew- ing clothes for the daughter of a wandering child, hehe..."

Qin Rou laughed, thinking that all mothers have the same ideas?

But she envied Huahua's mother for being able to sew beautiful skirts for her little daughter.

What special things can you do for little boys? Boys' clothes are just like that, clothes and shorts.

Girls' skirts are very different.

It's a pity that she doesn't have a daughter.

"Huahua mom, come here, I'll draw you some simple and beautiful patterns, you just follow them, it's very simple, and suitable for little girls."

Li Qinghua came over and studied hard, and after she finished, she called Qin Rou to her house, "Come to my house and get some thorns to eat, I picked a few and couldn't finish them."

"Come and see my daughter Tiaotiao, she misses Aunt Qin."

"Okay."

Qin Rou followed Li Qinghua to Liu's house, but before entering the Liu's house, she heard Li Qinghua's mother-in-law teaching her two grandchildren in the yard.

"You are from our Liu family, your mother Li Qinghua is an outsider, don't be close to outsiders, be close to your father and grandmother, and your aunt."

Qin Rou heard it outside, she looked at Li Qinghua, she didn't expect that the mother-in-law would teach the children like this at home.

"Did you hear that? Your mother is an outsider. She won't really treat you well."

Liu Yue stopped talking after hearing that. What his grandmother said in private was like a cocoon in his ears.

The younger Tiaotiao was more skeptical. She learned to speak very early and was very eloquent. "Why is Huahua's mother an outsider?"

"Because you all have the surname Liu, you are from the old Liu family."

"Grandma, is your surname Liu?"

Granny Liu: "...I married into the Liu family, so I am from the old Liu family."

Liu Yue: "Then why isn't my mother? Didn't she marry into the old Liu family?"

Granny Liu said: "Your Huahua's mother is lazy and greedy, she is not worthy of being a member of the Liu family."

"My aunt is lazy and greedy, she is not worthy of being a member of the Liu family."

Granny Liu: "...Your aunt has the same surname as you, Liu."

"I don't want to be a family with grandma, I am a family with Huahua's mother, and I am lazy and greedy."

Liu Yue said, "Me too."

Liu Yue added, "My dad is not lazy or greedy, only my dad is an outsider."

In their family, except for his dad, aren't all the people lazy and greedy? He and his sister, Huahua's mother and his sister-in-law are a family.

"Grandma, we are a family, don't be close to our dad."

Liu's mother-in-law took a breath: "Hiss..."

Qin Rou outside: "..."

She looked at Li Qinghua, thinking that Huahua's mother had a good education.
