Chapter 324: Setting Off For Provincial Capital (4)

He was probably working overtime tonight and would return very late so he would not be eating dinner at home.

Gu Qingyao unpacked for a while and familiarized herself with the house. Actually, she lived here for a period of time in her previous life as well, so she had some understanding of this place, including the neighbors outside.

Gu Qingyao did not go out in the afternoon as it was too sunny outside and she did not feel like leaving the house at all. The two children were a little restless and wanted to go out to play, but Gu Qingyao stopped them.

“No going out. It’s too hot outside and you would get sunburn easily in no time if you run out now. Come here, I’ll tell you stories and let you out to play in the evening.”

The two kids froze. They loved storytelling.

During the new year in their hometown, she told them stories frequently. Moreover, as long as their brother had the time, he would tell them stories as well.

It was just that he did not tell stories as well as her.

The kids immediately sat down obediently.

In the living room were two wooden sofa chairs and a coffee table in the middle. There was a ceiling fan which Gu Qingyao switched on before sitting in the living room with the kids.

It was very comfortable to blow a fan at home on a sunny day. In the past, Zhou Ping did not bear to switch on the fan and always chased the kids out to play.

Now that they were blowing a fan at home, the kids immediately stopped talking about going out to play.

Gu Qingyao took out a notebook and pen. “Do you all still remember the words that I taught you all to read during the new year?”

The two kids exchanged a look. “Ye… Yes!”

Gu Qingyao frowned. Looking at their behavior, it was evident that they did not remember.

Back home, Young Aunt, Father and grandparents and herself took turns to teach Little Six, Little Nine and Gu Fangting. Young Aunt was very strict with Gu Fangting and thus Gu Fangting improved drastically in the past six months.

As Little Six and Little Nine did not have their parents by their side, they were much sensible recently.

The remaining ones were the two kids before her.

Third Uncle and Third Cousin were very busy as they were the only ones with a salary in the household. Zhou Ping did not work and there were still two young ones at home.

Third Brother just started work a few years ago, and his salary was meager. That period of time was even tougher for them.

The both of them had a lot of stress on the job and the two kids were mostly looked after by Zhou Ping. Yet, Zhou Ping…

Gu Qingyao looked down. Zhou Ping was myopic and did not have much foresight.

Gu Qingyao said, “I’ll go through it once. From now on, you all must study and write everyday as scheduled. You all cannot fall behind. Otherwise, when you two return for the new year, you’ll even lag behind Little Nine already. Understand?”

The kids listened to their elder sister very well and nodded at once.

Gu Qingyao first revised with them what she taught during the new year. Third Cousin would teach them a little when he had time, thus the two kids still retained some memory of the information.

After reviewing a part, she taught them to read new words.

The main thing was to tell them simple idiom stories, after which she taught them to read and understand the meaning.

The kids were very interested in listening to stories.

There were few entertainments in this era and kids were exceptionally absorbed in such activities like listening to stories.

With the electric fan switched on, in addition to the fact that the weather in this era was not as hot as in the later years where there was global warming, both kids no longer mentioned anything about going out to play.

After a while, Zhou Ping shouted from the room, “Yao Yao, pour a cup of water for me. I’m thirsty!”

Gu Qingyao did as requested and placed a small teapot on the cabinet near Zhou Ping’s bed.

“Aunt, here’s your water. I’ll place it here. You can pour it yourself if you still want to drink more! The teapot is filled with cold water. It’s not hot.”
