On New Year's Eve, they got a lot of pheasants because two were from Third Brother Lin as well as the boys went out hunting and brought them back in the evening.

So it became an exceptional feast.

The family gathered around for the New Year's Eve dinner, and the food was extremely satisfying.

Father Zhou and Mother Zhou were joyful. Everything at home was developing in a good direction, so what was there to be troubled about?

"Every one of you devoured all dishes to the last crumb. You got to study hard next year. If you can't support yourself in the future, your father and I won't care." Lin Qing He told the three brothers.

She was really grateful that this period was getting better and better.

Otherwise, relying on the income from the field with three lads in the family, the family will be drinking northwest wind.

They can really eat. Each meal, they each have a huge appetite.

"Mother, you can't dislike your own sons like this." Zhou Kai replied.

He had the biggest appetite. He can't help it. He was this tall, he'll get hungry easily.

Although there was enough oil content at home, it can't stand under the pressure of this kid's consumption rate.

"Mother doesn't favor anyone with the exception of  Father. The three of us are included along the way. Being able to get a bite of her food is pretty good. Eldest Brother, be content." Er Wa a.k.a Zhou Xuan shook his head and said.

"Three little cabbages drifting in the wind."San Wa a.k.a Zhou Gui Lai had his hands clasped behind his back as he looked at the sky at forty-five degrees angle with a depressed pretty face.

Lin Qing He sent them to tidy up in laughter. Then she went out with Zhou Qing Bai for visitation.

It was an unsaid rule that one shouldn't stay at home all day on New Year’s Eve. After dinner, Lin Qing He grabbed melon seeds and snacks and came over to Mrs. Cai’s house.

After sitting for more than an hour, she came to old Zhou's house.

Eldest Sister-in-law and the others were waiting for her.

The sisters-in-law put aside their relationship in the past. Currently, their relationship was still very harmonious. Every New Year, they get together.

They first talked about the changes in the village this year. The educated youths who were admitted to college had all gone back. Many had never returned for the New Year.

Lin Qing He commented that all those who left now were admitted to the university, but that wasn't for sure for those in the future.

She didn't make her words too clear either. After all, the educated youths began to return to the city in large numbers. Seems to be around autumn next year when it happened.

From the beginning of 1979 until the early 1980s. Basically, not many were left.

When Eldest Sister-in-law and the rest heard this, they all inquired if she had heard something. Lin Qing He said no. She was guessing and told them not to talk about it outside.

"Qing He, do you plan to come back here after graduation?" Eldest Sister-in-law asked.

"After graduating, it goes without saying to look for employment. Da Wa's mother is the kind of talent that the country needs. What is she coming back home for?" Second Sister-in-law piped in.

"If she doesn't come back home, what will happen to Fourth Brother and the rest?" Said Third Sister-in-law.

The three sisters-in-law looked at Lin Qing He. Lin Qing He responded, "I don't know yet. It will be a while before graduation."
