Three or Two Things about Rebirth

Qiu Luming smiled but said nothing. She noticed the phrase "a PhD whose background is unknown" and also noted what Fei's mother said, "You must support his work and career."

She waited for another ten seconds. Mother Fei still did not talk about her work. Instead, she began to talk about Fei Yuanhang's preferences and habits in detail. "Yuanhang has a bad stomach. You should often make him some millet porridge or dumpling soup. Never let him eat cold rice or stay up late. When the weather gets cold, remind him to put on his wool vest!"

Qiu Luming swallowed the words that were about to burst out of her throat. She finally understood why Qin Huifang always complained to her that her mother-in-law was too difficult to get along with. The same words, when said by the mother and the mother-in-law, gave people completely different feelings.

If her mother told her that she should learn to cook and take good care of her husband and children after marriage, she would not feel anything because her mother was trying her best to take care of the family every day. But if her future mother-in-law said this, she would think that she wanted her to be a nanny and do more housework to serve her son.

But Qiu Luming was no longer the Qiu Luming of the past. She smiled at Principal Fei. She couldn't bear to contradict his wife in front of her respected teacher just because of a few words. But in her heart, she thought with a sense of victory: Just wait, I will definitely train your son well and make him proficient in all housework!

"Look at me, Mr. Fei, how could I forget this! Teacher He is not good at cooking, so how can her daughter cook well? So, Lu Ming, when you come back from the exam, come to Aunt Luo's house on Sunday, and Aunt Luo will teach you how to cook! Four dishes a month, four months means sixteen dishes, which is enough! When guests come over during festivals, we can also prepare a decent feast!

Our Yuanhang has always listened to me since he was young. Whatever I say goes to him! He likes the food I cook the most. Even if you don’t have this talent, as long as you learn 50% of Aunt Luo’s cooking skills, I guarantee that Yuanhang will like you even more!”

The more Fei's mother spoke, the happier she became. She even patted Qiu Luming on the shoulder, as if she had entrusted her with an important task.

Qiu Luming still didn't say anything. She looked at Fei's mother and really admired the women of this generation, including her own mother. They were all full of energy and spirit. They absolutely believed in the equality of men and women and wanted to make a career. They also liked to control their husbands, their children, their subordinates and everything.

She thought that she absolutely loved Fei Yuanhang, otherwise she would not have endured it until now.

But why does she always want to be like Qin Huifang and take revenge?

Qiu Luming decided to go home quickly while he still had control.

She picked up the bag containing Fei Yuanhang's sweater and cotton pants and said, "Principal, Aunt Luo, I have to go home. I have to catch a bus tomorrow."

"Stay for dinner. Aunt Luo will go buy you some spareribs. I can teach you..."

"No, Aunt Luo, I still have some luggage to pack."

"Then Aunt Luo won't keep you here. Luming, you should go to Beijing a week in advance and try not to delay Yuanhang's studies. You should also study hard! Although the self-study exam is not a unified one, it is still an undergraduate degree. Your eldest sister-in-law is a graduate student, and she is from Shanghai. My younger sister Lingyun has also been admitted to Xi'an as a graduate student this year. Don't worry, the academic atmosphere in our family is quite strong, and we all support you to study hard!"

All the children in the Fei family had excellent grades, so Fei's mother was indeed qualified to show off. Qiu Luming thought that if her grades were not so poor, her mother would probably show off to others like this.

She let Fei's mother talk behind her and walked quickly towards the door. Principal Fei coughed twice, trying to stop his wife's nagging, but Fei's mother turned a deaf ear to him.

"Luming, call home when you get to Beijing. Auntie believes you can take good care of Yuanhang. Yuanhang is a man of loyalty and he will treat you well. Last time, when he heard that you were robbed, he rushed back to see you without caring about anything else. The journey was so tiring that he fell ill when he got back! Alas, every child is a piece of their mother's flesh and blood. I am so heartbroken!"

Qiu Luming stepped out of the door, stopped, turned back, and said to Fei's mother with a smile, "Aunt Luo, you really reminded me. When I get home, I will ask my mother to cook some eggs and steam some buns. I will take them to the train to eat. I will also bring some water with me in case I encounter any emergency and get hungry and sick on the train!"

"You..." The smile on Fei's mother's face froze and she choked.

"Principal Luo, please stay. I'll come back to see you when I get back from Beijing!"

Qiu Luming rode on his bicycle and heard Fei's mother breathing heavily. He whispered to Principal Fei, "What does she mean?"

"Don't you know what it means?" As soon as Qiu Luming left, Principal Fei stopped giving face to his wife. "Look at you, what nonsense did you say? What about cooking and serving people, what about having a bachelor's degree after all? It was obviously you who was angry and didn't bring food and drinks for the second child, so he had to take the train to eat, and as a result, the second child fell ill. Why are you blaming it all on other people's children!"

"Mr. Fei! You have no conscience! Doesn't it hurt when you say this? Tell me! Why do you insist on finding her for the second son? Isn't it just because she is He Manshu's daughter? Tell me, is that right?" Fei's mother's voice rose eight octaves.

"madman!"

"Why are you hiding? If you're afraid of being heard, don't do it! I just want to poke your lungs! Uh-huh... you old pervert... uh-huh, you're having a crush on someone with a beard..."

Qiu Luming almost rode his bicycle into a ditch on the side of the road. How come this involves secret love?

When dinner was almost over, Qiu Luming hesitated for a moment, but still repeated part of what Fei's mother had said. Of course, he omitted the part about He Manshu not being able to cook and Principal Fei having a crush on her.

Qiu Jiashu was already furious. "Yoyo, you did the right thing! You can't hide this kind of thing from your parents. There are many things you can't see through yet. You must let your parents check and analyze it for you!"

"Did you tell your parents at that time?"

"Of course! My parents helped me analyze it. They are particularly optimistic about your second sister-in-law. They said that she has a good job, a good family background, and most importantly, a good character and a good-looking person. They told me that I must not miss her!"

Fang Yuan smiled happily, "My dad also likes your second brother and told me not to miss him."

"Tsk tsk!" Qiu Luming shook his head. "Second sister-in-law, my second brother puts your work and family background first, and you're not angry?"

"Don't be angry. This is also part of my personal conditions! My cousin married a worker from the Forestry Bureau for so-called true love. All relatives opposed it at the time, but the more they opposed, the more they loved each other, as if we were all demons blocking her happiness! Later, my aunt had no choice but to agree to their marriage. Now three years have passed, and what's going on? They can't live together anymore!"

"why?"

Except for Qiu Luming who asked the question, everyone else smiled knowingly.

Fang Yuan sighed and said, "My cousin's wife is really nice, beautiful, talented, and kind to my sister. But their family is too poor. My sister found out after they got married that she had to use up most of her salary to support her parents and her brother's schooling. She likes to paint, but her salary is not enough to buy painting supplies and paints. She even has to help pay for her grandparents' medical expenses.

At first, my aunt loved her daughter and helped to pay some money, but she stopped caring later. They had been married for more than a year when they had a big fight over money, and they have been fighting frequently since then. Now their child is less than a year old, and they are getting a divorce.
