Chapter 598 Btts 598
Chapter 598. Go over for New Year to see Eldest BrotherXu Sheng Qiang's incident was the only crop up at the end of this year. Although old Zhou's side didn't ignore someone heading to ruin and had extended a helping hand. As for the rest, there was nothing.
And he didn't even come to say thank you. This made this side's heart cold.
In Hai City, Lin Qing He didn't call back because she was busy. The translation work wasn't easy to do. Quite brain-consuming.
However, she treated it as work. Something to spend the time. This way she won't be too bored.
"Godmother, won't you and godfather celebrate the New Year here with little sister." Jiang Geng came over to do his homework that day. He spoke when he was mostly finished.
"Have to go back there for the New Year. Your eldest brother will definitely find a chance to come back to see Mi Mi this year." Lin Qing He replied.
"I haven't seen Eldest Brother yet." Jiang Geng said.
"It's not easy to see your eldest brother. He's only back for a few days at the end of the year. I estimate that he will come back this year and may not necessarily come back next year." Lin Qing He stated.
"Oh." Jiang Geng sighed. He wanted to go to the capital.
"What's the rush? You're in second year of high school. When you finish your third year of high school and pass the entrance exams for the capital's university, then you can go over. For four years." Lin Qing He pointed out.
She knew that this godson, Jiang Geng wanted to go to the capital to celebrate the New Year. However, his mom would be the first one to disagree. It was enough to be able to go over there to study. Don't think about to going with them for the New Year.
Old Madam Jiang came over. She brought a bowl of brown sugar ginger tea for Lin Qing He to drink.
"There's no for you to specially cook me a bowl of brown sugar ginger soup, Auntie." Lin Qing He hurriedly said.
"Drink more brown sugar ginger soup this month. It's good for your bones." Old Madam Jiang urged: "And it's just a little brown sugar and ginger. It doesn't cost much at all."
"Then I will get Qing Bai to make it for me." Lin Qing He said.
"Alright." Old Madam Jiang nodded. Looking at her grandson, she spoke: "Smelly boy, you've been staying here for dinner every day. Ask your dad to pay for your living expenses tomorrow."
"And living expenses? Aunt, you can leave those out." Lin Qing He drank the brown sugar ginger soup and jollily said.
She was thoughtful. The ginger slices were all mashed and then boiled with brown sugar. The effect was particularly good.
"This half-grown kid can eat his old man poor. He got an appetite." Old Madam Jiang commented.
"It's just a matter of an extra bowl and chopsticks. It doesn't add up to much to have my godson come to my place for dinner." Lin Qing He waved her hand.
Jiang Geng stated: "Grandmother, I will be filial to my godfather and godmother in the future!"
"This is what you said. If you dare to forget it in the future, see if I won't sort you out." Old Madam Jiang responded.
Lin Qing He smiled. Zhou Qing Bai's voice sounded from inside the room: "Wife, bring in some hot water."
Lin Qing He fetched hot water and came in. Little Mi Mi had pooped again and needed her bottom wiped.
This was left to Zhou Qing Bai. From his appearance, he had obviously just woken. Still, he started to wipe his little girl's bum without any displeasure or regrets.
This guy was very experienced. In this cold weather, he can just seamlessly complete the job without letting a wisp of cold air in.
Finally, he put talcum powder on and it was done.
Have to say, he was careful with the follow-up as Mi Mi had never gotten nappy rash.
"It's time to cook. What do you want to eat?" Zhou Qing Bai asked his wife after he had cleaned up his little girl.
"Make a chicken noodle soup with tomato." Lin Qing He replied.
"Okay." Zhou Qing Bai nodded. He washed his face and then came out. Lin Qing He looked at little Mi Mi. She was having fun on the bed by herself. Mosquito nets was drawn out around the four side, which was quite windproof.
So she let her be. Just playing by herself. Anyway, she won't freeze.
"Auntie, do you want to stay for noodles tonight?" Lin Qing He asked.
"The old man had the food ready." Old Madam Jiang told.
"Godfather. cook me a portion." Jiang Geng said to his godfather.
"Won't short your share." Zhou Qing Bai replied.
Old Madam Jiang amusedly scolded: "Smelly boy, you're getting more and more unreserved now."
"Why be reserved with my godfather?" Jiang Geng responded, "I still want to go to the capital with my godfather and godmother to celebrate the New Year."
"Don't come and test the water with me. My words have no use. If you want to, ask your mother." Old Madam Jiang waved her hand.
Jiang Geng filled his stomach with chicken noodle soup with tomato. Afterward, he looked at his godsister before going back.
"Stayed at your godparent's for dinner again?" Chief Jiang was reading the newspaper when he swept his son a glance on his return.
Just a week ago, Chief Jiang was officially promoted from deputy to the current position.
"I told my mom to not prepare my dinner when I went out at noon." Jiang Geng said.
Chief Jiang let him be. Xue Mei Li went out to take a bath in the bathhouse, Jiang Geng went to put down his schoolbag. Then he came out to discuss with his dad.
"Go to the capital to celebrate the New Year?" Chief Jiang looked at him in surprise, "You don't want home?"
"Dad, my eldest brother will come back this year. I want to meet him. I heard from Third Brother that Eldest Brother is very powerful. Especially good at fighting, The kind that can fight a group." Jiang Geng said.
Chief Jiang glanced at him: "You can ask your mom about this. See if your mom can agree."
Jiang Geng uttered, "My mom will definitely not agree."
"Then why did you come and tell me for." Chief Jiang shook the newspaper and continued to read it. Completely ignoring son.
In fact, he wanted his son to have more contact with his brothers from Zhou Family. Those who interact with ink will get black. Following those better than oneself will make one better.
However, he didn't disapprove the idea of going to the capital to celebrate the New Year. It was up to his wife.
"Dad, help me persuade Mom." Jiang Geng pleaded. He really wanted to go to the capital for the New Year. On the way, he can see that eldest brother.
"I'll give it a go when your mom comes back." Chief Jiang stated.
Apparently, Xue Mei Li still won't budge: "Letting him attending college in the capital is enough. Not being at home during the New Year? What will it look like?"
Jiang Geng heard his mom's verdict the next morning. Kill that thought. She won't have any complaints about him going to the capital for college and spends the New Year there. For now, don't think about it.
Regarding this answer, Lin Qing He had expected it. Not surprisingly at all.
If Xue Mei Li could agree, then she would not be Xue Mei Li.
Lin Qing He didn't pay much attention to this. After she translated the current book, she went to submit it. The manuscript must be reviewed before being sent out. Lin Qing He wasn't in a hurry.
After getting to know half of another person's translation, she went back first.
This was what she was currently occupied with. As for Zhou Qing Bai, he had dropped down. He was completely a family man who mind the children.
"Us two are now considered female outside and the male inside, right?" Lin Qing He jollily remarked when she came back and saw him wearing a scarf as he made pork ribs and winter melon soup.
"Don't over-exert yourself." Zhou Qing Bai smilingly said when she saw that she had brought a book back.
