Chapter 418. Soaking in hot spring
On the second day, Lin Qing He brought Zhou Xuan, Zhou Gui Lai, Hu Zi, Gang Zi, and Zhou Er Ni over to find Mother Weng.
Because Weng’s house was on the way to the railway station.
Zhou Qing Bai accompanied them all the way. It wasn't just him. Father Weng also appeared reluctant when they reached Weng's house.
Mother Weng was especially overjoyed. Looking at the luggage in the children's hands, she smiled and said, "Are you all coming?"
"Ain't that right. Got to help you with your baggage, Aunt Weng." Zhou Gui Lai grinned and responded. He went over to pick up Mother Weng's bag.
He put his own stuff with Gang Zi's. It was just a few underwears and a few inner clothes. They were put together in one bag with his second brother and Brother Hu Zi's and carried by Hu Zi.
Zhou Xuan was carrying Lin Qing He and Zhou Er Ni's one. With Mother Weng's, there was only three baggage for so many people. Not a lot.
"Okay. We'll go by train. You guys can go back by yourself." Mother Weng said when their ride arrived.
"You got to open the shop. Go back." Lin Qing He directed at Zhou Qing Bai.
So the group hopped onto the train. Zhou Qing Bai and Father Weng were a bit sympathetic to each other.
"If you don't want to cook by yourself, you can go to my shop to eat." Zhou Qing Bai said to Father Weng.
Father Weng sighed, "On such a cold day, they say they want to travel and just go. All the way to Ha'er too. Aren't they afraid of the cold!"
Zhou Qing Bai couldn't agree any better.
"Speaking of which, I had implicated you." Father Weng stated.
Of course, he knew that his wife didn't want to talk to him. It was why she went to travel. After all, they quarreled yesterday. As for the reason for the quarrel, he couldn't recall. Still, a quarrel had happened.
Then she was annoyed with him and was going to travel.
Zhou Qing Bai didn't take it seriously. His wife was bored from the start. Otherwise, no matter what Mother Weng said, it would be useless. He won't be mad at others.
The two waved goodbye. Zhou Qing Bai went back to open a dumpling shop.
At this time, there wasn't much business. Still, the door was open.
Aunt Ma also started to wash the dishes. It was cold at this time. They used warm water to wash. Lin Qing He had given her vanis.h.i.+ng cream for her hands.
"Why did Teacher Lin and the others go on a trip out of nowhere?" Aunt Maknew about it too and wondered.
"Bored at home and want to go out to explore before school starts. The children are also brought along to see the world." Although Zhou Qing Bai was reluctant to part, he still said with an open att.i.tude.
Aunt Ma nodded and said, "It's good to take them out to see the world. I'm still thinking about whether to take Little Dan to the frontier for a holiday next year."
She was just going to see her eldest son's family. Although they called each other and exchanged letters, they hadn't seen each other for many years.
"You should. When you're going, tell me beforehand, Aunt. I will give you a few more days." Zhou Qing Bai said.
"No need. Normal holiday break is enough." Aunt Ma smiled.
"It's not enough. The journey on the road will take so many days." Zhou Qing Bai said, "It's also a rare trip."
"Alright then." Aunt Ma smiled: "When that happens, I will ask my daughter-in-law to come over and fill in for me for a few days. Although she can't speak the same dialect as us, she can still work."
"It'll be a while. We'll talk then," said Zhou Qingbai.
He had a good impression of Ma Cheng Min, while his impression of his wife, Huang Xiao Liu was so-so. No prejudice either. However, he felt it wasn't appropriate for a lone woman to work over here with a man. He'll look for an old aunt or granny when the time comes.
That was how much a conventional man valued the distinction between men and women.
w.a.n.g Yuan dropped by in the afternoon.
He thought Zhou Er Ni was with her grandparents. When he went there, he found out she wasn't and was informed by Mother Zhou.
"Er Ni? She, her fourth aunt, and the boys have all gone on a trip and caught a ride early this morning. They must be gone now." Mother Zhou said.
"Gone on a trip?" w.a.n.g Yuan was stunned: "Where did you go to travel on this snowy day?"
"I also said that it's better to stay at home in this snowy weather. These people can really toss around themselves." Mother Zhou muttered.
"What toss around? If it weren't for taking care of these little ones, I would like to go with Fourth Sister-in-law." Zhou Xiao Mei chimed in.
All four of her children were still young. It can't be helped. For ten years, she can basically forget about getting away and be as cool as her fourth sister-in-law.
"Aunt, where did they travel? How many people went?" w.a.n.g Yuan asked.
"A lot. Everyone at my fourth sister-in-law's side except my fourth brother." Zhou Xiao Mei answered: "I didn't hear clearly where. Something about going to see some ice city."
"Ice city?" w.a.n.g Yuan was puzzled. So he came over to ask Zhou Qing Bai.
"Went to Ha'er." Zhou Qing Bai told: "The train at nine o'clock this morning."
"So sudden. Why did they go so far?" w.a.n.g Yuan said.
"Look at the ice city. The ice city there is beautiful and there is a big hot spring." Zhou Qing Bai explained.
This was what his wife said. Even he hadn't been in a hot spring yet. He felt a bit resentful when saying this. She didn't say anything in advance and just left.
"What need is there to go to a place as far away as Ha'er to soak in hot spring. We have one in the capital!" w.a.n.g Yuan stated.
"Where?" Zhou Qing Bai looked at him in surprise.
Although he had been in the capital for two or three years, he hadn't visited so many places. He really didn't know that there was a hot spring in the capital.
w.a.n.g Yuan knew. It was a long way from here. w.a.n.g Yuan had his own car, so it wasn't far at all.
"Fourth Uncle, when are you free? Let's go for a soak?" w.a.n.g Yuan smiled.
"Bring Uncle w.a.n.g and your grandparents." Zhou Qing Bai said.
"That's a must." w.a.n.g Yuan immediately jollily answered.
So the business was only done for one day today. It was closed on the eighth day.
Old w.a.n.g, Father Zhou, Su Da Lin, and Zhou Qing Bai rode in w.a.n.g Yuan's car and came to the hot spring together.
Zhou Qing Bai's intention was to come and recognize the way. When his wife returns, he would often bring his wife there for fun. His wife enjoyed these.
It was time to bring out the truck that was bought last year and was put in his wife's mysterious s.p.a.ce. It will be convenient to have a car by then.
After arriving at the hot spring, old w.a.n.g looked at it and remarked with emotion: "Good lad, you know such a far place."
Coming here from home was a full three hours drive before arriving.
Father Zhou was also very excited. He hadn't soaked in the hot spring before.
Today they were going to call Mother Zhou, but it was only Mother Zhou herself. There was n.o.body to take care of her and she didn't understand. So they got Su Da Lin to join them.
As for the shop, let Zhou Xiao Mei watch it.
So these men comfortably soaked in the hot springs. Have to say, it was really comfortable. However, the expense was a bit high.
Five people came for fifty yuan. The average price was ten yuan.
