Chapter 228 Time Flies

He Caiwei didn't care what her husband and father had discussed, anyway, the workers would come to the house in a few days.

Their original rooms were combined into one master bedroom. The master bedroom consisted of a bedroom, a small sofa and a small living room separated by a screen, and a small kitchen. Adding a bathroom to the master bedroom was almost impossible, so a small room of about 10 square meters next door was converted into a bathroom.

It's impossible to create a wet and dry separation in a 10-square-meter bathroom like in later times, since although they have running water, it is often interrupted.

Well water is still the most commonly used water source here, and almost every household has a hand-cranked well or an old well.

Although the courtyard here also has running water, it's not like each house has a tap connected to the whole courtyard. Instead, the tap is placed in the middle of the courtyard so that everyone has to come to the center to get water.

The situation is similar in tenement buildings. Since the water pressure is insufficient, the water pressure becomes very low on floors above the third floor. In fact, people mostly use the public well in the courtyard.

Time flies, and the movement outside is getting more and more intense. The adults at home are keeping their children away from them, and they are not allowed to go to crowded places or participate in any activities. Schools are closed, so they have to stay at home obediently.

He Yuping took out the old man's secret weapon and taught them to practice using an abacus. When she was bored, she taught them how to brew wine. She taught them whatever they were interested in.

The twins are fairly well-behaved. Although they are around 10 years old and at a mischievous age, they were frightened when they saw people outside smashing things.

Their parents, older brothers, and older sisters all forbade them from going out and wandering around with those people. As good younger brothers and sisters, they had to obediently listen to them.

To make them behave, there was another condition: every year during the holidays, the older sister would take them to the port city to visit their second brother, where they would play for more than ten days before returning.

They were very well-behaved, staying at home for four or five years until schools reopened, at which point they started to come out and be active again.

Of course, although they learned some extracurricular things, they never neglected their studies. During the more than four years of school closure, their mother, brother, and sister helped them finish the remaining junior high school courses and all of the high school courses. Now they are just waiting for the college entrance examination to resume.

He Yuping and He Caiwei both knew that a full 10 years had passed between the suspension of classes and the resumption of the college entrance examination. Fortunately, these two kids were not old enough to be sent to the countryside, otherwise they would have had a hard time.

Because of Lu Zhiheng and Lu Qingfeng's relationship, the girl was put into the office as a secretary as soon as she turned 16. The boy wanted to learn to drive, so Lu Zhiheng took him all over the city.

There were people who envied their family, but no one dared to confront them. After all, the neighbors all knew that Uncle Lu was a high-ranking official in the capital, so even if they were envious, they wouldn't dare to report him.

He Caiwei was afraid that her younger siblings would get moldy if they stayed at home for too long, so every year during the Lunar New Year holiday, she would take her two little ones, or her aunt, or her uncle to Hong Kong for about 15 days.

Lu Qingzhu has already made great progress there. In just a few years, he has opened a company, several shops, and bought a lot of land at his sister's suggestion. Of course, this was partly due to the help of the Tao and Wu families, and partly due to the territory he acquired through force.

Aside from not being able to reunite with his family, Lu Qingzhu truly lived a wonderful life and realized his childhood ambitions here.

In the year that her aunt retired, He Caiwei gave birth to twin sons. Naturally, her aunt came to Shenzhen to escape the hustle and bustle. Once, her uncle called, and his tone was particularly resentful.

He Caiwei quietly became pregnant again, and when the twins were three years old, she gave birth to another pair of twins, a boy and a girl.

This made Lu Qingfeng feel that his life was particularly dark. When he had twins, he felt that he had become the lowest in the family. Finally, when the twins were a little older, he could leave them to his mother and aunt and he was finally able to regain his former status. Who would have thought that he would have another pair of twins, a boy and a girl? He felt like he was going to faint.

Before the college entrance examination was reinstated, He Caiwei called her younger brother and sister over for a meeting. She wanted to know if the two little devils wanted to take the exam. She told them to think it over carefully. If they wanted to take the exam, then they should use the remaining six months to pick up their books and review all the knowledge they had learned before.

"Big sister, will the college entrance exam really be reinstated? Did Uncle say so? When will it be, and how long will it be?" Little Lu Qinghua wanted to get into how many schools her older sister attended before repeating a year?

"Auntie, aren't you at work? Why do you still want to go back to school..." He Caiwei's eldest son looked at his aunt's anxious appearance and was very puzzled. In his opinion, school was not fun at all, so why did his aunt want to go back to school to study?

All the kids in the aftercare class are such crybabies. Seeing the two brothers makes my scalp tingle. Having two crybabies at home isn't enough to send them to the aftercare class. They have to be with a whole bunch of crybabies. It's just too annoying.

"I want to go. As long as I can get into university, I'll go right away." Lu Qinghua was very decisive. He didn't want to stay at home all the time; it was really depressing.

"How about I go with my aunt?"

At first, no one quite understood what she meant, until He Caiwei figured it out and grabbed his ear: "You brat, I think you're asking for trouble. Does your brain go through 100 brainstorming sessions every day after you wake up, trying to figure out how to avoid going to the orphanage?"

"Mommy, don't be so irritable, you'll age faster if you do this..." The older twin reached out to try and save his ears, but his mother was holding them too tightly and he couldn't get them off. He looked helplessly at his father.

They don't care about him at all; they're probably worried about whether his wife's hand will get hurt. Honestly, this dad is pretty unreliable.

Lu Qingfeng certainly didn't know that his son was criticizing him like that, otherwise he would definitely be in for a good beating.

"Weiwei, don't be angry. They're on holiday these few days, so we won't take them out to play." Lu Qingfeng looked at his eldest and second sons with a hint of provocation. These two little brats were too clever and too hard to fool, so he simply told them to openly let his sons take his wife out to play.

Anyway, Mom is at home, and my aunt and uncle are going out to play for a few days, so there's no need to worry about who will take care of these little ones.

“Brother, don’t tease him, he’ll get angry with you in a minute… This little brat is impatient, if you push him too far, I don’t think you’ll get a good night’s sleep tonight.” He Caiwei gently patted her brother’s hand.

How old is this man? Why does he still love teasing his son so much? He knows his eldest son is impatient, but he still insists on making him even more impatient.
