Chapter 32. Villains’ father had returned

Because it was too cold, Lin Qing He was too lazy to cook. She usually made congee- shrimp skin congee, pork rib congee, sesame congee. Or folded up some dumplings to eat. In one go, she made a lot and cook many times.

Lin Qing He intended to make meat buns. The fat residue was a good filling ingredient, and there was cabbage in the backyard.

She planned to make more in one go. Whenever she wants to eat it, then steam some. It won’t go off at this kind of day. fr(e)ewebn(o)vel

But she didn’t make the buns immediately. She got to knit San Wa’s sweater first. Only then she got the free time.

And on this night, the snow began to fall. It was only October 18th. This snow was half a month earlier than the ones in her memory.

But then again. It seems to be one night at the end of this month when Zhou Qing Bai returns home during heavy snow.

Now only Zhou Qing Bai’s sweater was left to knit. He wasn’t back yet, so no rush. Lin Qing He was indeed a woman of action, said she’ll make and did make.

On October 19th, she started to make big buns stuffed with cabbage, egg, and fat residue with Da Wa Er Wa and also San Wa.

The mother and son busied for the whole day and made more than thirty white buns.

Because a lot of dough was made, there were still some left after thirty plus buns. So Lin Qing He made some fillings again. She grabbed some pork belly out of the space, then chopped it, and wrapped it with cabbage to make cabbage and pork belly stuffed dumplings.

Since she was making it, she might as well make more. This weather was really cold. She didn’t want to go anywhere except Kang. Cooking was also troublesome.

So more than one hundred dumplings were made in one go.

She felt it was too much.

Her intake was average. She didn’t have to go to the field to do farm work and the oil content was a lot, so there was no need to eat so much.

As for Da Wa, he can consume eight dumplings in one meal. At most six for Er Wa. However, she didn’t let them eat too full. So seven for Da Wa and five for Er Wa. As for San Wa, three was enough for him. For herself, an intake of seven or eight dumplings.

With a bowl of shrimp skin soup made from cooking dumplings, then they’ll be full. The children were still very young. She preferred to be a bit hungry rather than overstuffing them.

A hundred dumplings can also be last for a day or two. After all, there were buns.

It was all steamed, but still, needed to be taken out to let it cool. If she wants to eat it, she can just fry, steam or boil it.

After making so much at one time, Lin Qing He became idle.

Normally, it was some white porridge served with white buns or shrimp skin soup accompanied by dumplings.

Lin Qing He started knitting a sweater for Zhou Qing Bai. This was who they depended on. She didn’t plan to go to the field. It was definitely going to be Zhou Qing Bai who works in the field to earn work points.

So she can treat anyone badly, but definitely not this person. Even if he didn’t necessarily lack this sweater to keep warm, she must display her attitude (T/N: of gratitude? XD).

She’ll manage the inside, and let him handle the outside.

She was the most afraid of farming. She was fine with managing the household. She wasn’t going to work outside and don’t even think about making her.

This morning, the mother and sons were eating boiled sweet potatoes accompanied by salted pork and a plate of fried onion and fungus next to it on the Kang table. It was also delicious.

"Don’t know when your father will be back." Lin Qing He commented.

Counting the days, it was October 25th now. Zhou Qing Bai should be returning, which meant any day now. Somehow, she was still a little nervous.

"Is there no money more to spend?" Da Wa asked.

Lin Qing He: "..."

"Definitely no money left to spend. We have been eating good things for a while." Er Wa followed up.

Lin Qing He: "..."

When these two heard her mention their father, their first reaction was that she didn’t have any money to spend. They were really ... clear-sighted. (T/N: These kids 😂)

The original owner was like this. Every time she missed their father, it was the day when the allowance was about to be sent back. She had not received the remittance form sent by post from that side in the middle of this month. This was within her expectation.

"Don’t talk nonsense. Your father hasn’t come back for a long time. I was thinking, will he come back this year for the New Year. When he’s back, don’t know if he can recognize you three brothers." Lin Qing He said.

Da Wa was a lot sturdier. Er Wa’s little face was rounder. As for San Wa, he was now completely fed by her into a little chubby.

He became rounder. And because he was good looking, he looked so robust and adorable. No need to say how cute he was.

Of course, Er Wa was also the same. It was only Da Wa, who looked sturdy. He didn’t get fat at all, only his height increased a bit.

Because all the three boys were treated well, even if she knew that she was a waster, Mother Zhou did not say anything.

"We are Father’s son. How can Father not recognize us." Da Wa uttered without care.

"That’s right." Er Wa also affirmed, but still continued: "Will Father come back this year?"

"I don’t know. Mother also hopes your father will come back." Lin Qing He said it like this.

"I know. Mother must have missed Father, right?" Zhou Da Wa grinned.

"She definitely misses him. I have forgotten what Father looked like," Er Wa nodded.

Human ah, to discuss like this nonstop. During the day, the mother and sons were talking about the head of their family.

Around ten o’clock in the evening, someone knocked on the door.

Lin Qing He slept relatively lightly these past few days. There was no way. She knew the plot ah. She knew that Zhou Qing Bai’s return was any day now, so she didn’t dare to sleep too deep.

As soon as the door sounded a bang, she almost instantly woke up.

The three children were still asleep. Lin Qing He put on a cotton coat and came out. It was really cold these days, especially tonight. It was really freezing.

"Who’s there? Is it a petty thief from somewhere? If you dare to come to my old Zhou’s place to run wild, then you have to inquire about who my man is!"

Zhou Qing Bai, who was outside the door, estimated that the mother and sons had fallen asleep, so he planned to go over the wall to enter. At this time, these words came from inside.

Zhou Qing Bai: "..."

These words made him, who walked all the way and got stiff feet due to the cold, raised the corners of his mouth. Then he was a little gloomy. Had anyone ever harassed the mother and sons?

"I’m warning you thieves, my man is Zhou Qing Bai. He’s outside keeping our country safe. If you dare to target his home, it wouldn’t be a problem to be caught and receive a gun execution!" The woman inside fiercely declared.

"It’s me." Zhou Qing Bai said. Thinking that she might have forgotten his voice, he uttered: "Zhou Qing Bai."

"Zhou Qing Bai?" The woman inside was relieved as soon as she heard it was him.

Lin Qing He wasn’t pretending. She was the only one at home, and her three sons were still young. If she was not sure that it was Zhou Qing Bai outside the door, then she would never open the door.

But when she heard his unique deep voice, which was registered in the original owner’s memory, and he revealed his identity, it was clear that the villains’ father had returned.

Lin Qing He knew he had walked all the way. And the snow was so heavy tonight, it must have been particularly freezing.

So she hurried over to open the door.
