Traveling through time and space, wanting to lie down, but being forced to move forward

Chapter 1236

A layer of hay was laid on the ground in the yard, and a thick carpet was laid on the hay.

Four chubby dolls are on the carpet, lying, sitting or playing happily.

The sunlight, half blocked by the leaves, shines on them, not too hot nor too cold, just right.

At one end of the carpet, Old Wu was sitting there, looking at his four adorable great-grandchildren, with a smile on his face.

Lightning, who was possessed by Dumpling, was spinning in circles on the carpet, barking from time to time to attract the children's attention, tempting them to turn over, sit up, and make howling sounds.

Liu Jingxue sat on a chair not far away, drinking the fruit tea made by Zhou Mingxuan under her guidance, watching the scene with a smile.

Maybe it was what Tuanzi said, that by raising children, one can let the children's innocence cleanse one's soul and achieve the goal of eliminating one's inner demons. Over the past few months, although there has been no increase in merit, Liu Jingxue's inner demons have indeed been weakened a lot.

It is estimated that in another half a year or a year, she will be able to completely break free from the shackles of her inner demons and can try to break through to the Golden Core stage.

While Liu Jingxue was thinking about this, Elder Wu's voice rang out.

"Xiaoxue, Mingxuan, are you sure you're talking about getting the business license for that self-employed business owner?"

"Yes, grandpa," Liu Jingxue replied.

"He said that after he gets it, he will stop by the stores that are being renovated to see how the progress is."

The few of them had already agreed that when summer vacation starts in July, Liu Jingxue would take the children to live in the compound for a while and let the children get close to their grandparents and great-grandfather.

As for Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao, they will stay in the south for a while to develop sources of goods for several stores.

In fact, there are special people who purchase goods there, but it was just a small business in the past. Now they open several stores at a time, and the business scope of each store is different. Naturally, they have to check it out in person before they can feel at ease.

In addition, the two are also looking for opportunities to take over factories and produce and sell their own products.

They also need to start planning their goals for their pharmaceutical factory and skin care product factory.

After several months of testing, Tuanzi's reliability has been confirmed, and Zhou Mingxuan no longer has to worry about the children being left unattended. The policy also allows private business, so he is about to start making a big move and create his own business empire.

"Grandpa, are you really not planning to live with us in the compound during the summer vacation?" Liu Jingxue asked Mr. Wu.

"Xiaoxue, you don't need to persuade me anymore, I will stay here and guard the house for you.

There is no one to take care of the vegetable garden and so many poultry. I have to help my great-grandchildren keep their food supply.

Mingxuan and the others are not here, so there is no one to distribute the goods offline. They are worried about leaving it to others, so they have to ask me to keep an eye on it for them."

“Don’t worry about me, just leave the lightning to me.

With Lightning here, I don't have to worry about thieves breaking in and bullying an old, lonely man like me."

Worried that Liu Jingxue would continue to persuade him, Old Wu said, "I know you are not used to living in the compound, and I am even worse off than you.

I feel uncomfortable staying there, so please stop trying to persuade me."

"Then I'll stay for a while and then bring the children back to accompany you." Liu Jingxue could only say.

Old Wu shook his head, "You don't have to rush back.

The children are more than four months old and have not returned to the compound. They have rarely seen their grandparents and great-grandfather.

Take advantage of this summer vacation to spend more time with them there.

When school starts, I won’t have time to see them.”

Old Wu said with a devilish smile, "Your grandfather and your parents have quite a few good things.

The children have suffered a loss because they have not held any celebrations for their one-month and one-hundred-day birthdays.

Take advantage of this opportunity to go back and let the children get closer to them and get more good things from them."

Liu Jingxue laughed and said, "Grandpa, if my eldest brother and his wife knew about this, they would definitely say you are biased and gave us such an idea."

Mr. Wu said confidently, "I am partial to Mingxuan, so what.

I raised Mingxuan. Your third child has the same surname as me, Wu. Mingxuan also said that he would be responsible for my retirement.

When that day comes, most of my things will belong to Mingxuan and you.

Mingjie and Mingrui, the couple, have to keep their disagreements to themselves."

"As for the Zhou family, Mingxuan is not in the military or politics, so he has no use for the Zhou family's connections. It's not right for him to compensate them in other areas.

So, Xiaoxue, don't be too honest. Whatever your grandfather or parents give you in the Zhou family, just take it with confidence.

Don't worry too much.

Since they gave it to you, they must have thought about it a long time ago."

Liu Jingxue had no shortage of good things. Not to mention those passed down from the Liu family's ancestors, there were also those she had stolen from fellow thieves, obtained from scrap yards, found in the mountains, and even rewards from higher-ups. She didn't know how much there was.

Although she planned to give more than half of the Liu family's wealth to the two brothers Liu Jianguo and Liu Jianjun, she still had a lot in her hands.

But the old man was thinking about them, so she didn't need to refute him or go against his wishes. She just responded with a mouthful, "I know, Grandpa."

Although they agree to this verbally, it is not known whether they will actually do it.

Liu Jingxue had no intention of causing a conflict between Zhou Mingxuan and his brothers over a small amount of money, which would lead to discord between the brothers.

She had also dealt with other members of the Zhou family during the time they were married, and so far she hadn't met any bad ones, so they were relatively easy to get along with.

In this case, there is no need to be a bad person and ruin the harmony.

Of course, if someone bullies her without knowing the consequences, she will not endure it in silence.

During the final exams, several people took their children to live in a courtyard house near Xia University.

Knowing that they were going to take exams and couldn't take care of the children during the day, Wu Yunshang took a few days off from work and brought Zhang Ma over to help take care of the children.

As for the compound, Old Zhou and Zhou Yunting will have to eat in the cafeteria for a few days.

Since the child was born, Liu Jingxue has never left the child's side.

Worried that her child would be upset because he couldn't see her, she immediately rode her bike and hurried home after the morning exam.

In the afternoon, I would leave home and rush to the teaching building fifteen minutes before the exam started.

But even so, the four children still cried for a long time on the first day when they didn't see her, and even their voices became hoarse.

There was no other way, so Liu Jingxue could only get some harmless drugs and mix them in the water to feed them before setting off.

When I came back from the exam, they had just woken up.

However, she didn't tell anyone about this, for fear that they would mistakenly think that she was neglecting the children's health and she would have to spend more time explaining it to them.

After the final exams, Liu Jingxue returned to the courtyard and stayed there for a few days. After seeing off Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao who were heading south, she took her four children and got in the car that came specially to pick them up and returned to the compound.

It was the first time for the children to return to the compound, so their grandparents and great-grandfathers naturally gave them a warm welcome.

Originally, Liu Jingxue and Zhou Mingxuan's rooms were on the third floor, but considering that it was inconvenient to live on the third floor with four children, after all, they had to go back and forth several times just to carry the four children downstairs, so they specially cleaned up a room on the first floor for the mother and daughter to move in.

Originally, Wu Yunshang planned to take care of the two children to sleep at night to reduce the burden on Liu Jingxue.

But after the experience of helping to take care of the children during the final exams, and seeing that the children refused to be separated from their mother at night, I had to give up this idea.

She did suggest living in the same room with Liu Jingxue to help take care of the children, but Liu Jingxue was not used to it. The children now only need to drink milk once before going to bed, and it is almost dawn before they drink again.

And now they can drink milk from the bottle by themselves without being fed, so they refused.

For this purpose, several children made friendly appearances, demonstrating how their grandfather, grandmother, and great-grandfather drank milk in various ways, such as sitting, lying prone, lying flat, and lying on their side, and how to coax themselves to sleep after drinking milk.

Seeing such well-behaved great-grandchildren and grandchildren, the elders of the Zhou family were so happy.
