Chapter 128 Return Home
The rippling expression was too obvious. Shen Xiaoyue secretly scratched his palm and whispered to him, "You should hold back."
Lu Pingan looked up and saw that everyone was looking at the menu carefully. He took her hand in his palm and whispered in her ear, "Hehe, there's nothing I can do. I'm just so lucky and have someone to love me."
After dinner, a few people helped to clean up because they were afraid that Liu Ting would be too busy.
Looking at the newly renovated courtyard, Fang Feifei looked resentful: "Now it's good, I'm really the only one in the dormitory."
Su Mingzhu was dissatisfied: "Fei Fei, what do you mean, am I not a human being?"
"Weekend! I said weekend!"
"If you beg me, it's not like I can't stay in the dormitory and play with you on the weekend."
Fang Feifei begged for mercy: "Miss, you'd better go back. My wallet is about to be emptied."
When Su Mingzhu was on vacation at school and had nothing to do, she loved to drag Fang Feifei shopping. Fang Feifei couldn't resist the temptation and would buy a lot of things every time. Her body became fatter, but her wallet became thinner.
"Hmph." Su Mingzhu turned her face away, obviously dissatisfied.
"Let's go, let grandma have a rest for a while."
After saying goodbye to Grandma Liu, some went back to school or some went home.
After Shen Xiaoyue and Lu Ping'an wrote to Lu Guodong and others and told them their home address, they would receive a few new letters from time to time.
Sometimes it was Lu Guoliang sharing his newly designed clothes, sometimes it was Siyu Sixia's report card, and sometimes it was handwritten letters from Lu Guodong and Wu Qingyun, chattering about the big and small things at home.
At the end, you have to say, "Everything is fine, don't worry."
The final exams are over and the courses for this semester are officially over.
When the weather was hottest, the two of them boarded the train back to Dahe Village, carrying large and small bags.
Si Xia Si Yu had her holiday early. When she heard that her uncle and aunt were coming back, she clamored to come pick them up. As soon as Lu Ping'an and Shen Xiaoyue came out of the train station, they saw Lu Jun and Lu Yong each holding one person by the hand.
Kids of this age change their appearance every two days, but fortunately Sixia's sky-high braids and Siyu's slicked-back middle-parted hair are still as eye-catching.
The two little people opened their arms and wanted to run over to hug them: "Little uncle! Little aunt!"
Lu Ping'an was holding a bag of pastries he brought back from Beijing. Seeing the two people circling around them with their heads held high like two crying chicks, he responded and then grabbed Si Xia's pigtails.
Si Xia pouted: "Little uncle, you are bad."
Then he turned around and hugged Shen Xiaoyue, and made a face at Lu Pingan: “Little aunt, OK!”
Shen Xiaoyue was amused by her and touched her head: "Uncle is not bad, he even brought you some cakes."
"Okay, then uncle is fine too."
"Alright, alright, stop standing here, go home, your mother insisted on showing off her skills by herself today, and she sent us all here to pick you up, while she's busy at home, so you'll have to eat more later."
The two went out and saw that it was Uncle Zhou who brought Lu Guodong and the others.
Shen Xiaoyue pushed Lu Pingan and motioned him to take out the things in his bag.
"Uncle Zhou, this is the book I brought from Beijing for Erniu."
Zhou Erniu would occasionally ask Uncle Zhou to send letters to Shen Xiaoyue and Hu Qingqing when he went to the county town.
Shen Xiaoyue knew that Zhou Erniu had been the top student in the class recently, so she bought her a few books as a reward.
Hu Qingqing finally chose to stay in school during the holiday. She asked Shen Xiaoyue to bring two of the books to Zhou Erniu for her.
"No, no, I haven't thanked you enough, how can I accept your things?"
Uncle Zhou puffed on his cigarette, feeling extremely fortunate that he had finally decided to send Erniu to continue her studies.
I heard from Secretary Lu that if you get admitted to university, not only do you not have to pay any fees, you will also receive subsidies!
None of them in the family can read or write, but the second daughter was able to get the first place in the exam. The teacher even said that she is a good candidate for college entrance examination!
"It's okay, Uncle Zhou. This is the gift Hu Qingqing and I brought her. We agreed on it."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Zhou put down the cigarette in his hand, hesitated for a moment, rubbed his hands on his clothes a few times, then carefully took the book and stuffed it against his chest together with the outer layer of cloth.
After making sure it wouldn't fall out, he grinned and said, "Uncle Zhou would like to thank you on behalf of Erniu. OK, sit tight, and let's go home!"
Before they even reached the door of their home, they could already smell the fragrance of food.
"It's fried lard!"
Sixia was the first to smell it.
Lu Ping'an sniffed hard: "It seems there is also Chinese toon fried egg."
"Hey, you have a good nose. Mom specially saved some Chinese toon for you."
The table was filled with food, and it was as lively as the Chinese New Year.
"You guys are back to celebrate the New Year, right?"
Wu Qingyun heard the noise and popped his head out. "You're back? You've lost weight!"
Lu Pingan rolled his eyes, very dissatisfied: “Mom, what are you looking at? My wife eats the food I cook every day, how can she be thin? It’s almost the same if she gets fat.”
Wu Qingyun didn't want to listen to all this. After he finished speaking, he retracted his head and continued to stir-fry enthusiastically.
Army soldier Lu Yong wanted to go in and lend a hand but was driven out.
"Go away, don't ruin my delicious meal."
Lu Guodong had already sat down and started to peel peanuts. "Don't bother your mother. Come with me to peel the peanuts. I'll send them in later and ask her to fry them. They'll be good to eat with wine while we eat."
He knew that the two had been away for several months, so Wu Qingyun wanted to show off his skills himself.
When the last dish was served, the whole family sat together and clinked glasses.
While eating, he talked about what happened between them in college. Sixia's eyes lit up again and again: "I want to go to college too!"
Lu Yong snorted, and said in a disdainful tone: "Finish your homework for the holiday first. You don't even do your homework, and you're still thinking about going to college."
Sixia got a headache when she heard about homework. She thought for a long time with her little face propped up, and then she had an idea: "Let my brother help me with the test. My brother is smart!"
Lu Yong laughed and said, "Comrade Lu Sixia, you are so bold. If you are arrested one day, don't call me dad. I think it's embarrassing."
Siyu said seriously: "Sister, I am a boy and you are a girl. I will help you take the test and others will see it immediately."
Lu Jun's temples twitched after hearing this: "So you're all boys, so others can't tell?"
They had almost finished eating. The two little ones could no longer sit still and ran to the backyard to play. Lu Ping'an burped and told Lu Guodong something.
"Dad, I heard some people at school speculate that it might be gradually relaxed. I thought if it is relaxed, our family will do it alone. What do you think?"
Lu Guodong glanced at him and said nothing.
After the college entrance examination was resumed, more and more educated youth wanted to return to the city and were no longer proactive in their work. It would be a good thing if they could really do their own thing in the future.
Hearing this, Shen Xiaoyue also thought of something: "Yes, I heard that rabbit fur is very expensive abroad. If it is released, we can raise this."
