Chapter 546: Eldest granddaughter-in-law

Zhou Xuan and Zhou Gui Lai forced their eldest brother to say if there was any new progress tonight. However, the two of them were not enough overpower their eldest brother. So they couldn’t get any answer at all.

Lin Qing He came out to pour hot water and then brought it in for Zhou Qing Bai to use to wash face.

"Wife, it would be nice for us to buy more shops and factories to keep." Zhou Qing Bai opened his eyes while his wife took care of him.

"Factory as well? Those aren’t cheap." Lin Qing He froze before responded in mirth.

"Hundreds of thousands should settle it." Zhou Qing Bai stated.

"What a confident tone." Lin Qing He amusedly scolded.

Zhou Qing Bai grinned. Once his wife brought the water out and return, he put his arms around his wife and went to bed.

Lin Qing He didn’t nag him. If he could buy more at this time, then she would definitely not mind. The more, the better.

On New Year’s Eve, the couple went to bed early.

The children outside soon went back to their rooms to sleep.

Early the next morning, it was truly New Year’s Day. As well as the year of economic reform, 1985.

New year with new appearance. The family ate breakfast early in the morning and watched TV. They waited for the guests to come over for New Year’s greetings.

Ma Cheng Min from next door brought Huang Xiao Liu and Ma Xiao Dan over. Lin Qing He went and invited Aunt Ma over.

She grabbed a handful of peanut and soft sweet for Aunt Ma and said: "It’s New Year, Aunt. You have to come over and chat."

"Even if you didn’t invite me, I would still come." Aunt Ma grinned. Just now, she was busy cleaning the pot.

"This year, Qing Bai’s dumpling shop has a good business. From what I see, you can make an extra basket of steamed cake and send it over next year. What do you think, Xiao Liu?" Lin Qing He merrily directed to Huang Xiao Liu.

Although Huang Xiao Liu’s son wasn’t young anymore, she was still quite shy: "Alright. I’ll make one more basket next year."

"The price will also increase. As the specific amount, wait until the shop open again before we set on it." Lin Qing He said with a smile.

Because of having something to work on, Huang Xiao Liu was more cheerful. Although her words were little, she wasn’t gloomy anymore.

Huang Xiao Liu grinned and nodded.

"Do you want to go back this year? If you want, I will be granted a few more days off, Cheng Min." Lin Qing He directed to Ma Cheng Min.

Huang Xiao Liu’s eyes lit up. Actually, Ma Cheng Min didn’t really want to go back. The conditions in the countryside were too limited. He basically had nothing to do. But seeing his wife’s obvious desire to go back, he nodded. Thinking that it would be only once a year: "Then I will take three more days off."

"Alright." Lin Qing He nodded.

"Thank you, Teacher Lin." Huang Xiao Liu beamed.

"What is there to thank. With Cheng Min overseeing, I have it more relaxed. Oh right! Everyone will have their wages raised this year." Lin Qing He bought up.

"It’s not low." Aunt Ma expressed hesitation.

"This year, prices and everything are going to rise a lot. The wages will definitely go up. Can’t treat everyone badly. Everyone will increase to seventy yuan." Lin Qing He stated.

"That high?" Aunt Ma blurted out, "In this case, the burden isn’t small." Even though prices have risen, seventy yuan was certainly a lot.

"I’ve considered this before coming up with decision." Lin Qing He smilingly responded and directed to Ma Cheng Min: "Cheng Min, you are the manager. You are ten yuan higher than them, so eighty yuan. On most days, it’s been hard on you."

"It’s what I should do." Ma Cheng Min said seriously.

"Dad, your salary has increased. You have to buy me a football." Ma Xiao Dan demanded.

"Mom will buy it for you." Huang Xiao Liu said proudly. She earned her own money.

"Alright then." Ma Xiao Dan was satisfied as long as he gets a football.

Soon Uncle Ma came over as well. Zhou Qing Bai poured him a cup of tea and said, "Uncle, have a cup of tea."

He brought it to Uncle Ma. Uncle Ma smiled and said, "Your tea is delicious."

"I bought a lot last time. Later, take a jin back with you. It’s good to drink more tea when one get older." Lin Qing He spoke, "My uncle Wang and my father-in-law both like it very much."

Uncle Ma grinned, "I still got the ones I took last time."

"Tea got long shelf life. Keep it for future is fine." Lin Qing He maintained.

Old Ma Family chatted here for a long time. After a while, the other guests also came over. Ma Cheng Min and the others left to make room for others to sit.

Old Madam Xu and Li Yu Feng came together. With them was Li Yu Feng’s man, who was also Chen Shan Shan’s father.

They were about to become in-laws, so they dropped by. Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai entertained them.

Zhou Kai was the eldest, so he must stay there too. After all, it was rare for him to come back. As for the two brothers, Zhou Xuan and Zhou Gui Lai, they snuck out when as soon as old Ma Family left.

One after another, many people came.

When Zhou Kai sent the guests out, he saw Xu Sheng Qiang and Zhang Mei Lian. His gaze landed on Xu Sheng Qiang, who he hadn’t seen for a long time.

Xu Sheng Qiang had a slight sense of inferiority. This big cousin’s aura was too strong.

Just when he pondering whether to say hello, Zhou Kai turned around and went back.

"Go in." Zhang Mei Lian dragged him.

Nowadays, the clothing store was making money. In the first half of this year, it had made almost two thousand yuan. How much money was this?

There was no need to look at old Zhou Family’s face. action

Zhou Kai knew that his parents will be angry when hearing about Xu Sheng Qiang’s visit to old Zhang’s house. So he didn’t say anything at all.

As they entertained guests at home, it became noon. The people who should come to visit have mostly left. Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai had lunch and then went for a nap.

Can’t be helped. They were getting older and had also got up early in the morning. After greeting the guests all morning, wasn’t it to rest during the afternoon.

As for Zhou Kai, he closed the door and went over to his grandparent’s to give New Year’s greetings.

"You have to eat here tonight. Call your parents over." Mother Zhou urged.

Old Wang was present too. He was playing chess with Father Zhou.

Zhou Kai gathered over and said, "Alright. I’ll tell my parents to come here to join this table in the evening."

"I heard Er Wa mentioned that yesterday your prospective parents-in-law’s family came over for family dinner?" Zhou Xiao Mei teased.

Mother Zhou immediately said: "I heard Er Wa say that the girl’s conditions are particularly good. She is a college student and a nurse. Her parents and brothers all have jobs. Her parents and your parents are very close friends?"

Speaking of granddaughter-in-law, Mother Zhou became full of energy. She was a little dizzy and sleepy from her nap just now.

Zhou Kai didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. But after seeing his god-grandfather and his grandfather look over, he coughed and responded, "Mei Jia is wonderful."

"Then you have to treat her well. She have such a good condition, there must be a lot of people who pursue her. Being a nurse. What an excellent job? Only a good girl would study this. An angel in white!" Hearing this, Mother Zhou hurriedly said.
