The Age of Rebirth: Winning since the educated youth went to the countryside

As soon as they saw that dinner was about to be prepared, the whole family started to move.

The eldest and second sisters-in-law went to the kitchen to help, but Chen Qiaoyi and the eldest sister were not allowed to enter the kitchen because they were pregnant.

My second sister doesn’t like doing housework, so of course she didn’t go at this time.

What's more, there are already so many people in the kitchen, and she wouldn't make a difference.

Chen Shiying was eager to help, but was also driven out by Zhou Ma.

Zhou Ma smiled and said, "Shiying, you should take a rest too. There are many people here today, and we are enough in the kitchen."

Chen Shiying nodded helplessly and had to go back to the living room to play with little Yueyue together with Zhou Ziwen.

Seeing so many people, Yueyue was so excited that she ran around the living room, shouting, "So many people, so many people."

Zhou Ziwen smiled and grabbed her, holding her in his arms, and whispered, "Xiao Yueyue, don't run too fast, be careful not to fall."

Little Yueyue struggled to get down and continue her "adventure journey".

At this time, Zhou Xiaomei also walked out of the room. Seeing Xiao Yueyue's appearance, she couldn't help laughing.

She walked over, took Xiao Yueyue from Zhou Ziwen's arms, and said, "Xiao Yueyue, auntie will take you to see something fun."

Having said that, he carried little Yueyue into the room next door.

In the living room, Zhou Ziwen and his father sat on the sofa, talking about things in the village.

Father Zhou was very satisfied with Zhou Ziwen's performance in Dabazi Village. He said, "Ziwen, you have done a good job in the village and brought honor to our family."

Zhou Ziwen smiled modestly and said, "Dad, this is what I should do. The people in the village are also very kind to me and have given me a lot of help."

In the kitchen, the eldest and second sisters-in-law were busy preparing meals.

While cutting vegetables, the eldest sister-in-law Lin Xiaomei said to the second sister-in-law Liu Huifang: "Huifang, let's cook a few more dishes today and celebrate properly."

The second sister-in-law smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, sister-in-law, what's your specialty today?"

The eldest sister-in-law thought for a while and said, "I'll make braised pork. Everyone likes it."

The second sister-in-law said, "Then I'll make some sweet and sour pork ribs and stir-fry some vegetables."

As they talked, they operated skillfully.

After a while, bursts of fragrance came from the kitchen.

Aunt Zhou was directing the food from the side, reminding them to pay attention to the heat from time to time.

She said: "This braised pork needs to be cooked slowly over low heat so that it can be flavorful."

The eldest and second sisters-in-law nodded quickly and followed Zhou Ma's instructions.

In the room, Zhou Xiaomei was playing with toys with Xiao Yueyue.

Little Yueyue was particularly interested in a small rag doll brought by Zhou Xiaomei and kept fiddling with it.

Zhou Xiaomei smiled and said, "Xiao Yueyue, is this doll pretty?"

Xiao Yueyue said in a baby voice, "It looks good." Zhou Xiaomei said, "How about I give it to you?"

Xiao Yueyue's eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly, saying, "Okay, thank you, auntie."

Zhou Xiaomei is almost used to Yueyue's intelligence.

Although Yueyue is still a few days away from turning one year old, her thinking ability is no worse than that of a two-year-old child.

Little Yueyue inherited the excellent genes of Zhou Ziwen and Chen Qiaoyi, and looks very cute.

Under Zhou Ziwen's training, he has been smart and clever since he was a child.

In the living room, Zhou Ziwen and his father's topic turned from village affairs to Yueyue's future.

Father Zhou smiled and said, "Ziwen, little Yueyue is so smart, you have to train her well in the future."

Dad Zhou actually felt bad about his granddaughter suffering in the countryside with his youngest son.

But there is no way. As an educated youth who went to the countryside, it is not easy to come back.

However, Zhou Ziwen was not worried at all, because this year would be 1976.

The college entrance examination was resumed after 1976, and he would have plenty of ways to return to the city by then.

He had already made a plan. When he and the two sisters were admitted to university, they would return to the city and leave little Yueyue to be taken care of by Zhou Ma while they could study at school with peace of mind.

As for whether he could pass the exam, Zhou Ziwen was not worried at all.

In order to prepare for the college entrance examination, Zhou Ziwen started to let the two sisters prepare since last year.

Every night, after a busy day of farm work, he would urge Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying to study.

Of course, I can’t tell this to Zhou’s father.

After all, there is no news yet that the college entrance examination will be resumed.

Nor could he demonstrate the ability to predict the future.

In the kitchen, the eldest and second sisters-in-law had already prepared the meal.

The eldest sister-in-law shouted, "It's time to eat, everyone come and eat."

Everyone came to the dining table and sat down.

The table was filled with sumptuous dishes. The braised pork was bright red in color and fragrant; the sweet and sour spare ribs were sweet and sour, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside; the green vegetables were fresh and green, which made people's appetite increase at the sight.

There are also several other home-cooked dishes, all of which are very delicious.

Father Zhou looked at the table full of dishes and said with a smile, "Today's meal is really sumptuous. Thank you for your hard work."

The eldest sister-in-law smiled and said, "Dad, it's not hard. We are all together today and have fun."

Zhou Ma also smiled and said, "Okay, let's eat."

Everyone started to eat.

Little Yueyue was sitting in the children's high chair and eating with gusto.

She grabbed a piece of braised pork with her little hands, put it in her mouth and took a bite, then closed her eyes, a satisfied expression on her face, and said vaguely: "Delicious."

When everyone saw Yueyue's appearance, they couldn't help laughing.

When everyone saw Yueyue's appearance, they couldn't help laughing.

Little Yueyue was a little confused by everyone's laughter. She opened her big eyes, looked at this and that, and then started laughing too. Her clear laughter echoed in the room like a silver bell.

It was a rare occasion for the family to get together today, and Father Zhou seemed very happy. As the head of the Zhou family, he picked up his wine glass, cleared his throat and said:

"Come on, everyone, raise your glasses. Today we are reunited as a family. This is a good thing and worth celebrating."

Everyone raised their wine glasses, even little Yueyue raised her small water cup and imitated the adults.

Father Zhou continued, "First of all, welcome home, Ziwen, Qiaoyi, and Shiying. You have worked hard in the countryside this year. Especially Ziwen, you have done a great job in Dabazi Village. Dad is proud of you."

Zhou Ziwen quickly stood up and said a little embarrassedly: "Dad, this is what I should do. Without you and mom's teachings over the years, I would not be able to do this."

Father Zhou smiled and waved his hand, motioning him to sit down, and then continued: "Qiaoyi and Shiying are also very sensible and take good care of the family. I hope your future life will be better and better. Come, let's toast together!"

Everyone said in unison: "Cheers!"

After dinner, everyone sat in the living room and chatted.

It was almost dark when the eldest and second brothers reluctantly left.

However, Zheng Ming drank a lot of wine today because of the news of his elder sister's pregnancy, and he is now drunk.
