The couple made a living in the 1950s.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and everyone in the courtyard is gradually reluctant to go out.

But the rumors could not stop.

In the evening, as soon as Lin Manyu entered the fourth courtyard, he saw people gathered in the yard, whispering.

I vaguely heard the words, "I haven't received the admission letter yet."

She subconsciously turned her head to look towards the east wing, and then realized that this was neither the second nor the third courtyard.

Lin Hanyu still couldn't help but frown, as they had been living next to each other for so many years.

She just realized that there are people who like to say something vague about the college entrance examination.

Liu Guixiang also brought her daughter-in-law Fu Xiaomei and sat at the door of his house.

When she saw me coming back, she probably realized that what she said was wrong and turned her eyes away slightly.

Lin Manyu didn't care about these and pushed his bicycle into the Jiang family's yard at the back of the main courtyard.

Without stopping for a moment, he returned to his home.

Now, none of Fang Xu, Fang Jun, Ruyang and Mingyu have received an admission letter.

Everyone was in a bad mood, so she didn't feel comfortable moving forward.

In particular, I just learned today that my eldest sister’s nephew has also got what he wanted.

dong dong dong...

As soon as she entered the house, there was a knock on the moon door.

"Hanyu..."

When Lin Hanyu recognized who it was, he hurried out of the house and went to the moon gate to open it.

"Meimei, why are you here at this time?"

"Come and get some fresh air. Both of my children haven't received their admission letters yet."

"Aze and I don't dare to speak loudly at home."

“It’s hard for the children too.”

"Come in and sit for a while."

The two of them walked into the house arm in arm while talking.

At this moment, Lin Hanyu was not in a hurry to cook.

They sat on the sofa and drank tea quietly.

After a while, Zhang Mei looked up at her friend.

"You say, can't our family produce another college student?"

Lin Hanyu met her somewhat uneasy gaze and was about to speak when Erbao's voice was heard outside the door.

"Mom, the postman just came to deliver the acceptance letter."

"Is it Fang Xu and Fang Jun?"

When Zhang Mei heard what her son-in-law said, she got up and ran out without saying anything more.

Lin Hanyu looked at Zhang Mei who ran out of the yard in anger, and patted her second son's arm gently.

"Can you see clearly that we are going to your mother-in-law's house? Otherwise, she will be happy for nothing."

"Don't worry, Mom. We'll go over and take a look too."

When Lin Hanyu and her second son arrived at the second courtyard, the postman had not left yet.

Fang Xu and Fang Jun were standing at the door, holding the admission letters in their hands.

Neighbors all gathered here and expressed their congratulations.

Among them are many sincere people like Xu Zhaodi.

The postman had just delivered college admission letters for their oldest son Peicheng and their youngest daughter Peiling.

The two families celebrated together.

In the evening, when the two daughters-in-law came back from taking the children to piano and pipa lessons, Lin Hanyu and Bai Ye were still listening to the radio in the living room.

Now this radio allows listening to Peking Opera, and there are many more channels than before.

Xiaoliu Ajin, who had no classes tonight, went back to her bedroom early to sleep.

He is only six years old, and his second son and his wife are thinking of giving him a separate bed next year.

Who would have thought that a few days ago he slept with his brother Ah Heng in the north bedroom on the first floor of the main house.

From then on, the little guy would clamor to sleep with his brother every night and never went back to the east wing to sleep.

"Grandma, I'm hungry."

"There's some rice left in the pot. Let mom serve it to you."

Lin Hanyu turned to look at her second son who was taking off his outer cotton coat.

"Did the teacher extend the class today? You came back later than usual."

"Akira was busy with work, so he didn't come to my sister in the evening."

"We will send my sister and Yubai back to the military compound before coming back."

In the kitchen, the three siblings A-Yun, Yi-Yi and A-Heng were looking at the hot dishes of stewed pork ribs with beans, fried tofu and rice on the table.

Eat happily.

The three of them were eating happily when Lin Hanyu came in.

My two granddaughters are entering puberty and growing up.

They have to eat four meals a day to avoid being hungry, and both of them like to eat meat.

Usually milk powder, eggs, tofu and vegetables.

I also deliberately let them eat more.

She doesn't need her granddaughters to grow too tall. When they grow to 1.62 meters, if they want to be picky about food, she can let them do as they please.

When her grandchildren grew to 1.76 meters tall, she stopped asking them to eat.

Whether they eat tofu, drink milk, eat more meat or vegetables is all up to their parents.

She stopped worrying.

But before they grow to 1.62 meters and 1.76 meters, if they dare to be picky about food, I will spank them on the butt.

The premise for her to fully respect her child’s ideas is that the general direction of things cannot be changed.

For example, when it comes to what major your children should study in college, she will only give advice but won’t help make decisions.

However, if they don't want to study, they deserve nothing more than stick stew.

"grandmother…"

"Ok?"

"Can you buy me a lute?"

"I find it a little difficult. If I don't practice at home, I will keep making mistakes when the teacher checks the next lesson."

Upon hearing this, Lin Manyu smiled and touched her eldest granddaughter's furry little head.

The children at home all use the recipe left by their mother to wash their hair, and their hair is kept in good condition.

Although the two granddaughters are still young, they already have long hair that is as thick and shiny as seaweed.

"It's too late today, Grandpa has to go back upstairs to rest. Go ask Grandpa yourself tomorrow."

"If Grandpa agrees, then I agree."

"Grandma, my brother and I also need to practice piano at home."

Lin Manyu turned around and looked at her second granddaughter and eldest grandson with a smile, and saw hope and anxiety on their little faces.

Conceal the emotions in your eyes.

Children also know that pianos are not cheap.

But they don't know that the piano is not a big expense for their family.

At night, Lin Hanyu and Bai Ye snuggled up to the head of the bed and talked.

"Aye, it's easy to buy pipa and violin for the children."

"Pipa, just buy our Jingshi Xinghai brand 731 rosewood pipa."

"The craftsmen made it with exquisite workmanship, and the price of 700 yuan is reasonable."

"I bought a Yongshi Jinxing adult violin that was just manufactured in May. The price is not high, only 200 yuan."

"It is enough for children to start their studies."

Buy a pipa for Ayun, and buy a violin each for Yuming and Ajin, so it will be convenient for them to practice.

"But this piano, even if it's cheaper at the musical instrument factory, costs at least 30,000 yuan."

"Now 30,000 yuan can buy three and a half yards in Beijing."

"For the sake of educating children, this money is not worth saving."

"I was thinking about buying a piano for Yiyi and Ah Heng to practice on together."

"Yubai bought a piano for himself and practiced at his own home."

"The two daughters-in-law don't want to think that we are partial to our daughters."

“I really don’t think it’s cost-effective to just buy three pianos.”

"We have money, but we're not stupid."

"Did my daughter tell me whether her in-laws mentioned buying a piano and a violin for the two children?"

"If our two families each pay for half of the white piano, then everyone will be happy."

As Bai Ye spoke, he stretched out his hand to spread the pillow.

"Let's go to bed first, and then find time to ask my little girl's in-laws if they have any reaction."

"If it really doesn't work, give the second granddaughter and the eldest grandson 7500 yuan each."
