Miao Cuihua was also a beauty when she was young, otherwise she would not have given birth to a handsome son like Lu Yuantao, and she also married her boss's daughter with her looks.
He has risen to his current position thanks to his father-in-law and his own efforts. As for the Zhou family, one can tell from Grandma Zhou's temperament that they are definitely not far behind.
Dad Zhou still looks very elegant, and Mom Zhou is not bad either, with a good figure and temperament. Zhou Ziheng's facial features combine the characteristics of both of them. The children born to two people who are obsessed with looks are not much different.
Look, how can the child not be good-looking?
Looking at the children who had washed and smelled delicious, she couldn't help but give them another kiss.
Turn on the TV in the room and let the three kids sit there and watch.
Actually, there is nothing good to watch. It’s either some movies or the news broadcast.
Even so, the children watched it with great interest, and she didn't know whether they could understand it.
Seeing that they weren't paying attention to her, she quickly took a shower and wiped her hair with a towel when she came out.
The fan in the hall was blowing, bringing them some coolness in this hot summer.
Around eight o'clock, when their hair was dry, she took the children back to their room.
"Okay, time to sleep." She patted the three of them on the butt.
The three little ones sat and lay in a row, with Yi Yi sitting closest to her.
As an old mother, she wants to treat everyone equally. Today it is Yiyi, tomorrow it is Nian Chuchu, and everyone takes turns.
There was nothing wrong at the beginning of the year. As brothers, they had to protect their sisters.
She patted the children and sang to them, forming a unique rhythm with the creaking sound of the fan. Soon the three children closed their eyes and fell asleep.
When she woke up, she heard the sound of Miao Cuihua cooking outside. She rubbed her eyes, turned around, and saw that the three little ones were gone.
Where did they go? She was wondering.
When I put on my slippers and went out, I saw that each of them was eating a black thing in their hands. Upon closer inspection, I found that it was a roasted sweet potato.
"Ah, I want some too." I haven't eaten roasted sweet potatoes for a long time.
I used to eat sweet potatoes with my grandma when I was a kid. Nowadays, the sweet potatoes are quite sweet. It’s best to throw one into the fire after cooking and let it slowly cook with the dust.
Miao Cuihua had already prepared her share of sweet potatoes, and she took the sweet potatoes out from the side of the stove.
"There's nothing delicious today, so let's just eat sweet potatoes and porridge. Here are some pickles."
"It's okay, it's okay. I don't mind at all. By the way, where's Duoduo? Hasn't she gotten up yet?"
"You thought she was you, she had already left."
"Ah, why is she out so early? Didn't she graduate from high school a long time ago? Is she going to go play with her classmates?"
"No, she's going out to find a job."
She paused in eating the sweet potato and almost choked to death. She rolled her eyes wildly.
Perhaps Niannian sensed something was wrong, so he brought her a bowl of porridge, which saved her from choking to death. She looked at her grandmother in disbelief, "She's only sixteen. Why is she looking for a job?"
"At sixteen, you've already graduated from high school. You're not young anymore. Besides, you can't go to college right now. What else can you do besides find a job?"
People start school early nowadays. It takes five years for primary school, two years for junior high school and two years for high school. Duoduo was only sixteen years old when she graduated, which was indeed a bit early.
In the past, high school graduates were guaranteed a job, but with more and more people studying, there are only two jobs, which is not enough.
Only college graduates are guaranteed jobs, but getting into college is not easy. It is just like taking the imperial examination in the past, but in fact, it is even more terrifying.
Those who failed the exam and had free time at home were making trouble, which led to the policy of going to the countryside to receive re-education through labor.
Now that universities have been cancelled again, the only way to go to university is to go to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.
Moreover, not everyone can attend the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University. Only those who are both good in character and academic performance, or those who have made great contributions to the village, or those who are the children of a certain leader can have such a place. Moreover, the school they attend is not fixed, and it all depends on whether they can be assigned there.
Generally, they are assigned to universities in the city. If there is no university in the city, they will go directly to universities in the province to study. It is just like a teacher returning to his hometown to work after graduation. They are assigned to their original place of residence.
Okay, let’s get off topic.
Who says you can’t go to college?
She wiped her mouth dry and said, "I'm going to have a good talk with her later."
Duoduo's academic performance has always been good, and her grades are always among the best. She is definitely a very smart child.
If the college entrance examination had not been cancelled, she would definitely have been able to get into a good university.
But now I can’t go to college. I have to find a job after graduating from high school. If I don’t find a job, I will have to wait to be notified by the Youth League Office.
In fact, she is the only one in her family who doesn't have a job, so she can just stay at home and help take care of the children.
This child has a strong sense of responsibility, and she would definitely not stay at home to take care of the children, so she still wants to find a job for herself and doesn't want to eat for free at home.
But her salary can support the family, and she has two large sums of money on her.
The money grandma gave her was also the reward she received from her previous work on penicillin, tetracycline and cephalexin. With these rewards, she can support more than ten people.
At noon, Duoduo, who had failed to find a job, finally came back.
When I got home and saw Lu Xiangxiang was still there, I felt happy. "Sister, you haven't gone to work yet?"
"There's still some vacation time left. I'm not in a hurry." She shook her head.
He looked at Duoduo and asked, "Did you find a job?"
Duoduo shook her head and said in a disappointed tone, "I didn't find it."
"Don't look for it anymore, go study."
"Where can I find books to read now?"
"Who said there is no such thing? Do you want to go to college?" She looked at Duoduo.
Duoduo looked at her in surprise, "Can I go?"
"sure."
"Really?" Duoduo continued to ask.
"When did I ever lie to you?" she said with amusement.
Duoduo shook her head. Her sister had never lied to her and would always do what she promised. She was the best sister in the world.
"That's all, isn't it? I have a university place here, and I'll let you go when the time comes. But I didn't tell you because it wasn't school time. Now that you're so anxious to find a job, I told you in advance."
"Is that so? Thank you, sister. I'm sorry to bother you again."
"It's not a problem. We are all family. It's not a big deal. As long as you are well, that's all that matters." She patted Duoduo's shoulder.
Duoduo originally wanted to find a job, but after wandering around the city for a few days, there were no job openings.
Nowadays, everyone is assigned to a specific position. All the vacancies are absorbed internally, so there is no chance for her to get a job.
