After eating early, the three Zhou brothers and sisters returned to the county town to go to school.
Guan Bo's family started to get busy. Guan Bo brought people to take away the pavilion accessories that the Zhou family had dismantled.
After discussing with the director of the supply and marketing cooperative, I spent five yuan a year in rent to have the pavilion installed on the gable of the sugar, tobacco and alcohol store of the supply and marketing cooperative.
The Sugar, Tobacco and Alcohol Store is the northernmost store on North-South Street, where it intersects with East-West Street. There is a large open space on the gable wall that belongs to the supply and marketing cooperative.
After leveling, a pavilion was installed and six swing chairs were placed, making it stand out from the crowd.
The director of the supply and marketing cooperative saw the pavilion and praised it, "Excellent! It should be done this way from now on. Don't make it dirty or messy. Otherwise, I won't rent it to you."
Guan Bo nodded in agreement. Once this is done, it will look comfortable. All the family needs to do is prepare the dishes and chopsticks.
The final exams were in two weeks, and Zhou Xiang felt that they had missed classes last week, so he simply asked the four of them to come to his house every day, including Sunday the 21st.
Of course the four of them were happy. Not only was the food good at the Zhou family, but Zhou Xiang was also a very good lecturer. In the midterm exam, everyone had improved their rankings and was looking forward to the final exam even more.
Before school on Saturday, Zhou Xiang urged his father to go back to the town. "My second sister must have given birth. We have exams to take. We'll go back next week after the exams. You can take my eldest brother back to see her."
"Okay! Then I'll go back. I'll definitely be back to make lunch on Monday."
"Just don't make Big Brother late."
When the four tails heard that Zhou's father was not at home and they needed to cook for themselves, each of them said that they could cook. When they returned to Zhou's house after school, they excitedly rolled up their sleeves and started working.
As a result, the green beans were not cooked, the shredded potatoes were overcooked, and the rice was undercooked.
Fortunately, the scrambled eggs were messy but edible.
Zhou Xiang had no choice but to put the food back into the pot. He would never trust them again next time.
At night, they all stayed at Zhou's house, and Zhou Xiang never exchanged rooms with his father.
So, the four girls slept on two beds in the master bedroom in the east room, and Ji Bin slept on Zhou Niao's bed in the west room.
For breakfast on Sunday, Zhou Xiang stopped letting them make trouble. He appeased Dahuang and the others with eggs before returning to the kitchen to cook.
Dahuang's front legs have recovered. He has a slight limp, but it's not very obvious. It has some impact on his running and jumping, but it's pretty good.
After the four of them washed up and ate the breakfast Zhou Xiang had made, Ji Bin asked, "Zhou Xiang, is there anything else you don't know?"
Zhou wanted to roll his eyes at him. "There are so many things in this world! How many things can I do? You should ask me what else I can do."
Ji Bin nodded, "Yeah! What else can you do?"
"I can also hit, punch, and kick people."
Li Li, Zhang Ning and Xiao Chunmei burst into laughter.
After dinner, Zhou wanted to look through everyone’s books and give them some predictions.
"Review specifically the ones I've marked."
Four people should be fine!
Zhou thought that regardless of his third brother’s review, he had already mastered it in junior high school. Would it be difficult for sixth grade?
The final exams for junior high school are on the 25th and 26th, and Zhouhua’s primary school to junior high school exams are on the 28th and 29th.
After finishing his final exams, Zhou Xiang was anxious to go back and see his nephew. His father and elder brother couldn't explain it, and they just said that they were two boys who looked exactly the same.
"Third brother, we will get our report cards on the 30th. You can get them for me and then go back to the town. Zuo Heng probably won't be going to the town this year and he has nowhere to stay. Let's go later!"
By the way, how is Aunt Fang's leg?"
"I heard from Zuo Heng that he's recovered well, but he doesn't dare to walk far anymore, just walking around the compound."
"That's fine. Ask Zuo Heng to tell Luo Shaoqiang and Yaya that I don't have time to visit them anymore. The new house needs to be renovated. I'll pick them up to play later."
"Okay! Go ahead and don't worry!"
"Why is this so awkward?"
"Nothing wrong!"
Zhou Xiang waved his hand and said, "I'm not going to argue with you anymore. I've taken all the valuables from home, including my eldest brother's contract. I told Dad not to worry. After you get your report cards, you can take Da Huang and the others back home."
"Okay! Got it."
Zhou Hua waved his hand and said, "You're too long-winded."
Zhou thought of the town and went straight to the third floor with his backpack on his back. "Second sister, where are my two little nephews?"
The sound of a baby crying was immediately heard on the quiet third floor.
Mother Zhou walked out of the room and nodded at her little girl. "What's all the noise? You woke me up, didn't you?"
"You're awake, just in time. Let me hold you."
She threw her bag on the sofa and went into the house. "Don't cry, your aunt is here to hug you."
It was strange that when they heard Zhou Xiang’s voice, the two babies really stopped crying.
He turned his misty little eyes, as if looking for the owner of the voice.
Zhou Xiang came to his second sister's bedside and saw that she was in good spirits, but her face was covered in sweat.
"Mom, it's so hot. You don't need to cover yourself up like this. Open the window a little. How can we get some fresh air?"
"Can you do it?"
"Why not? Don't let it get out in front of Second Sister. Let some fresh air in. The room is full of the smell of milk and sweat."
Aunt Wang didn't say anything. The Zhou family usually agreed with whatever Zhou wanted to say.
Sure enough, Zhou's mother went to open the window.
Zhou Xiang looked down at the two little babies on the bed, looking right at her. Although she couldn't see clearly, she still tried hard not to blink.
Two identical people with identical expressions made Zhou Xiang feel completely soft-hearted.
"Come, come, let your aunt hold you!"
As he said this, he picked up one at random, "Oh! It's too soft. I wanted to hold two! No, I can only hold one."
I haven't held such a soft baby in my arms for decades. I'm a little uncomfortable!
The person who was picked up smiled at Zhou Xiang, and Zhou Xiang couldn't help but smile too.
Seeing that smile, Aunt Wang couldn't help but say, "He really is close to his aunt! It's been ten days, and this is the first time I've seen such a big smile."
Zhou's mother picked up another one and brought it close to Zhou Xiang. This one also smiled as it got closer to Zhou Xiang.
Aunt Wang laughed at Zhou Yu, "You! You've worked so hard for nothing. Both of them like Auntie."
Zhou Yu nodded. "That's perfect. I'm still waiting for their aunt to teach them! Zhu Hang and I, one is uneducated, and the other is a poor student."
Zhou Xiang just wouldn't do that! "You wish! I won't do that! I can entertain them, but if you want me to teach them, no way."
"Wow wow wow."
"Wow wow wow."
The two babies cried in unison. Zhou Xiang frowned and said, "Shut up! If you don't behave, I won't hold you anymore!"
Immediately, quiet.
Aunt Wang laughed out loud, "Oh my! Zhou Xiang, you're training a puppy? And the puppy is very obedient to you."
Seeing that the two guys were quiet, Zhou Xiang asked, "What's the baby's name?"
Zhou's mother continued, "Your brother-in-law said it's called Jiankangkang."
Zhou Xiang shook his head, "That's good, carrying the expectations of the elders."
Putting down the baby in her arms, she said, "Auntie Wang, his bottom is warm! He must have had a bowel movement."
Aunt Wang came over immediately and tidied up the baby's buttocks.
Zhou Xiang took the other one from his mother's hand and felt that the two were about the same weight.
"How much will two of them weigh?"
Zhou's mother said, "One weighs four and a half pounds, and the other weighs four pounds and eight ounces."
For twins, this amount is quite good.
