Day after day, life was plain but warm and happy. More than a month passed in a flash. In the middle, Meng Xiao took two days off to accompany his father-in-law back home, and took the children to stay with Shen Qingli for two days.
Life was leisurely until the broadcast in the family compound started. The passionate voice, which was full of the characteristics of the times, came out through the loudspeakers, a little noisy and unclear.
Today it was officially announced that the high-K system, which had been suspended for more than ten years, would be restored. Newspapers and radio broadcasts spread throughout the streets and alleys, and the silent or even dying hearts of millions of people finally came back to life.
This year will definitely be a milestone year!
Some people were still working in the fields when they heard the broadcast. They dropped their farm tools, sat on the ground, covered their faces and burst into tears.
Some people were doing housework with their children on their backs, disheveled when they got the news; some were no longer young and had some white hair due to the hardships of life.
Some people are still working hard in factories, some are carrying sandbags at the docks, and some are trading secretly on the black market to make a living.
No matter what their final choice would be, at least at this moment, they all stopped what they were doing.
There seemed to be a glimmer of light in the future, and in their view, that was where the sunlight came in.
There was still a month left before the announcement date, and all the math, physics, and chemistry books in all bookstores were sold out, and some were even snapped up at exorbitant prices.
Knowledge changes destiny, yes! The opportunity for ordinary people to turn their lives around has come.
Shen Qingli had known about it for a long time, so she was not too excited, but she still felt a little sour and indescribable emotions in her heart. She could be said to have witnessed this important turning point in history.
She knew that the country would become better and stronger in the future!
"Qingli, do you think Sang Yuan can still pass the college entrance exam and go back to school?" Aunt Liu has been a little absent-minded since she learned the news in the morning.
Shen Qingli had been reading a book before, so he was not in a hurry at the moment.
She comforted him, "Aunt, Sang Yuan likes being a soldier. He may not agree to go to college yet. In fact, they also have the opportunity to further their studies and learn various knowledge. They have their own military academy, or you can ask Sang Yuan for his opinion."
Aunt Liu sighed: "Well, that's right, I was overthinking it. You're right, Sang Yuan likes being a soldier."
Then she shook her head to herself:
"Don't ask anymore. The answer will be the same even if you ask. Sang Yuan has dreamed of serving his country since he was young. He prefers martial arts to literature. Besides, the current situation is good. As long as he is happy, that's all I wish for."
"ah!"
"What's wrong?"
Shen Qingli exclaimed, causing Aunt Liu to ask hurriedly.
Shen Qingli opened her eyes slightly wide, her face full of surprise, and walked to the crib: "Auntie, An An! An An just turned over!"
Aunt Liu came over and took a look. Wow! It really was! It was lying down!
Raising a child and watching them grow up is a very fulfilling experience. This is exactly what happened to Aunt Liu and Shen Qingli now, except that Aunt Liu was less surprised.
"A child can roll over at three months, sit up at six months, and crawl at eight months."
Hearing Aunt Liu say this, Shen Qingli became somewhat interested: "Is that so? This is the first time I've heard of it."
Aunt Liu smiled and said, "I noticed An An trying to turn sideways when he was lying in bed a few days ago. I was planning to help him practice for the next two days, but I didn't expect him to be so smart and turn over on his own."
Meng Lian turned over and lay there, arching and moving, but he couldn't turn over again.
At first, he half-raised his head, but while the two of them were talking, the shaking little head could no longer hold up and fell directly onto the bedding beneath him.
This is a rare baby for Shen Qingli. He quickly picked up the baby and kissed him again and again. The baby cried out obediently.
"The two siblings should be no more than a few days apart. He He still doesn't seem to be showing any signs of turning things around."
Shen Qingli held An An and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Meng Xihe. This little chubby girl seemed to be a little fatter than her brother if you looked closely, but it was not obvious.
Shen Qingli and Meng Xiao secretly brought them to the space to weigh the brother and sister. When they were three months old, Meng Xihe weighed 13 kilograms and Meng Lian'an weighed 12 kilograms.
It seems that children are just like adults, they are more clever and flexible when they are thinner.
"Once they can roll over, they'll be able to lift their heads. Every day will be much more fun for the child. Maybe they'll be able to sit up soon."
Aunt Liu recalled the past: "I remember when Sang Yuan was three months old, it was winter and he was wearing thick clothes, which made it inconvenient for him to turn over.
It wasn't until spring, when we took off our thick clothes, that we could turn over at four and a half months, and after a little over five months, we could barely sit up on our own."
Shen Qingli knew that Aunt Liu was an experienced person and these were all words of experience.
An An turned over today and looked much cuter than lying flat on her back every day. She was already looking forward to seeing the cute little brother and sister sitting, eating and crawling.
She wants to take lots of photos of them, dress them in pretty clothes, and make lots of delicious complementary foods!
Imagination is always beautiful, so much so that one day not long after, looking at the brother and sister who were abandoned by the cat and dog in front of her, she began to miss the time when they lay down every day and could not crawl or walk.
Of course, this is all later.

"Meng Ning, why don't you talk to Ma Fei's mother and ask her to move out? This has been delayed for several months. The company's housing supply is already tight, and her son has been detained in the police station, yet she still occupies the company's house and refuses to move.
At first, we saw that she was an old lady who was alone and helpless, so we were not in a hurry and gave her a month to slowly look for a house and move out after she found one. But now it has been more than two months.
