Chapter 596: Eldest aimed for chance to return home
Regarding Xu Sheng Qiang's temper, Lin Qing He knew. The matters before wasn't the beginning. This time won't be the end either. If he maintain this temperament, there will be more to forcibly live through later.
However, their relationship with the siblings wasn't as good as strangers'. Naturally, Lin Qing He wouldn't excessively open her mouth.
Even if she said it, they wouldn't listen to her. They might take as her finding an opportunity to reprimand them on purpose.
After dinner, Zhou Qing Bai went out. Lin Qing He knew that he gone to make a call.
Probably due to guessing that he would call over, Zhou Gui Lai came over to the dumpling to wait after having dinner at his grandparent's side.
"Hee, when I heard from Aunt that Mom had called, I knew Dad you would call the dumpling shop." Zhou Gui Lai laughed.
"How is your grandparent's health?" Zhou Qing Bai asked.
"The last few days, they weren't really well. Had a headache and slight fever. Right now, they have recovered. Don't worry, Dad." Zhou Gui Lai assured.
Zhou Qingbai didn't ask about Xu Sheng Qiang. Instead, he told him to let Hu Zi and Gang Zi to pay more attention when hawking outside.
"Both of them know. No need to specially instruct them this. Dad, does my sister look like me?" Zhou Gui Lai asked.
Speaking of his little girl, Zhou Qing Bai was in a good mood and replied, "Like me."
These words were going against one's conscience. Eldest and Third were like him, while Second and Fourth were more similar to their mom.
Going by how bewitching Second's looks was now, one can imagine how much he must defend when his little girl grows up.
Zhou Gui Lai responded, "Sister Si Ni said she looks like me!"
"Sister Si Ni said she is like me." Zhou Xuan took over the phone and refuted him. Then he asked about their sister.
It was the end of November now, almost entering December. Of course, this was according to the solar calendar. It can indicate the coldness of the season.
It was really cold at this time. One could see ice when they got up in the morning.
As elder brothers, they were naturally worried about their younger sister. After all, they haven't seen her even until now.
Zhou Qing Bai was patient and said at the end: "Will your eldest brother be back this year?"
"Eldest Brother doesn't know yet. He knows that Mom gave birth to a younger sister. So, nine out of ten, he'll look for a chance to come back this year." Zhou Xuan responded.
They knew their eldest's temperament. This year, their old mom gave such a big surprise to the family. He would create opportunities if he didn't have a chance to come back.
They weren't wrong. Zhou Xuan was trying to persuade his colleague to give him his opportunity to go home to him.
"Take as me doing Sister-in-law wrong. However, you must give me this year's opportunity. My mother is forty after the New Year. I didn't even know that she was pregnant when I departed at the beginning of the year and gave birth a sister for me this year. I have to go back and see." Zhou Kai explained.
At the same time, he stuffed a large bag of things.
This bag showed enough sincerity. Five-six packs of milk powder, four-five cans of malted milk extract, as well as a few cans of fruit. The rest were seven-eight packs of white rabbit candies. All were top-notch goods.
These cost a lot of money. Once basically can't get it without one month allowance.
It was also enough to see Zhou Xuan's sincerity.
His colleague was also in his forties. He currently held the same position as him. In fact, he wanted to go back for new year. After all, he didn't go back last year.
His wife and children were waiting at home.
But after seeing these things, his heart moved.
Because they were all top-notch nutritional products. He himself was reluctant to buy so many.
"I'll go back this year. The next time I have a holiday, I will pass it to you at once, so you can go back and visit relatives." Zhou Kai continued.
"Alright then. This year I will give you my spote." His colleague agreed.
Although he didn't go back, his wife and children will be happy to get sent the allowance and so many things.
After all, home conditions were average. How could they be willing to buy so many nutritional products? Even though it was no longer like before, these items were not cheap. Most people were reluctant to buy them.
Finally gotten the spot, Zhou Kai was delighted. He went to find Weng Mei Jia, and explained the spot change. The her spoke: "Mei Jia, do you have a vacation this year?"
"There are a lot going this year. I'm afraid I won't have my holiday." Weng Mei Jia responded.
"Then I will go to your dean to fight for it. It is best to go back together. I would be uneasy about leaving you here for the New Year." Zhou Kai said.
Weng Mei Jia pursed her lips and gave him an eye roll. She told, "Just playing with you. I had applied for a spot."
Zhou Kai breathed a sigh of relief then, "Then why say don't know."
"Auntie Lin gave birth. I have to go back and see." Weng Mei Jia spoke.
"Of course, you have to. That's your sister too." Zhou Kai looked at her and stated.
Weng Mei Jia didn't blush. After all, their relationship was established at the beginning of this year. She and him were rarely separated. At the military hospital, they were considered a recognized couple. She won't blush from these word.
She did feel a little bit shy. The first time a young woman gets on the sedan chair, she would.
Weng Mei Jia watched Zhou Kai take out a box of vanishing cream, and said, "I haven't used up the one you bought me last time."
"Why haven't you used it up? I have no place to spend money. You don't need to be frugal. Use as much as you can. Smear it on your hands and feet." Zhou Kai urged.
"Who would use vanishing cream on their hands and feet." Weng Mei Jia told him off.
"My mom has always used it like this for us." Zhou Kai responded.
Vanishing cream was used on hands and feet. In winter, she was afraid that they will be naughty and let the chill slip in. So she used vanishing cream on them.
Weng Mei Jia's mouth twitched. She and Zhou Kai were considered childhood sweethearts. Naturally, she knew that Auntie Lin was in the countryside in her early years. However, her life was more luxurious than them, who was in the capital.
In winter, she can't bear to use vanishing cream on her face. Would she use it on her hands and feet...
"If you have no place to spend, leave it to Auntie Lin." Weng Mei Jia still lectured.
"My mom don't take my allowance. She told me to earn money and keep it for my wife." Zhou Kai smiled.
Weng Mei Jia blushed a little this time. She accepted the cream and said, "Don't buy it next time."
"En. When it's used up, tell me." Zhou Kai nodded. He took three big apples out of his coat, and continued: "Kept the apples for you. Eat more fruit in winter."
"Didn't keep any for yourself?" Weng Mei Jia said.
"I have. Brought these specially for you." Zhou Kai replied.
Zhou Kai stayed for a while before returning.
As soon as he left, the other little nurses came over and saw the cream. As for the apple, Weng Mei Jia put it away.
Zhou Kai specially brought it here. Can't be distributed. And she couldn't bear to. It was fine if someone wants to smear a little vanishing cream.
