Sanwang scratched the crescent moon scar on his forehead, “I said that you look good, so why are you ignoring me?”

Erwang, “It’s like saying that you are the same as a loach in summer.”

Sanwang, “Wow, Second Brother, you’re laughing at me for being tan, but I’m no longer tan now. Instead, loaches are amazing at swimming, so you’re technically praising me. Sigh, I’m so happy.”

Just as he was talking, Xiaowang suddenly made a nice sound from the harmonica. Everyone was stunned for a moment as they turned to look at him. Sanwang said, “Oh my god, Xiaowang, are you going to be a music teacher?”

Only Teacher Huo had such amazing musical abilities.

Xiaowang’s eyes were bright as he was encouraged to start blowing again.

Everyone already took the tune he was blowing as the official background music of the moment as no one interrupted the flow of music.

At this time, Han Qingsong came back from the outside.

Sanwang shouted, “Father is back, we can have dinner now.”

Lin Lan scooped out the warm water in the crock and beckoned for Han Qingsong to wash his hands.

Han Qingsong said, “I can just use cold water.”

“It’s getting cold,” Lin Lan disagreed, “We should use lukewarm water; you’d be uncomfortable if we keep using cold water now.”

“I’m used to it.”

Lin Lan shot him an angry look, “That’s because there was no one to take care of you before. Nevertheless, now that you’re home, you have to listen to me.”

Han Qingsong gave her a deep look, “Okay.”

Lin Lan immediately turned her head to look at Dawang and proudly said, “You guys see this, don’t you? Even your father listens to me, so there’s all the more reason that you guys do too. Whoever doesn’t listen…”

Xiaowang immediately said, “I’ll listen to mom.”

Sanwang laughed and said, “If we follow mom’s will, we won’t be punished.”

Dawang twitched his mouth before he turned his head and looked into the yard.

After eating, the children went to the Production Team to start peeling some corn. Over the past few days, they have had to peel the corn, thresh it, dry it in the sun, collect the grains and distribute them. Therefore, both adults and children alike were very busy, which was why the school didn’t assign the kids any homework out of consideration.

Dawang and Sanwang were afraid that their mother would ask about their progress in school and they were even more afraid that they would be allocated even more work if she were to find out that they didn’t have any form of homework at all. Hence, when Lin Lan and Han Qingsong finished eating, the two took the opportunity to run out, saying that they were going to start working on peeling the corn.

Erwang was not in a hurry and he offered to help Lin Lan clean up the pots and pans.

He was now brainwashed by Lin Lan into thinking that cleaning the cooking utensils were all a man’s job. Women should always maintain their soft and supple hands, so they shouldn’t have to handle greasy matters like these.

Han Qingsong, who helped Lin Lan wash the dishes, made the child firmly believe in such a statement.

Maisui was more inclined to listen to her mother’s advice. She was to study hard and help the family with housework that was within her ability.

Maisui, “Xiaowang, let’s go. Your elder sister will lead you to Teacher Huo.”

Teacher Huo and their children often do brisk work together, which was actually considered to be special treatment from a teacher.

Xiao Wang looked at Lin Lan.

Lin Lan smiled, “Go on.”

When Maisui led Xiaowang away, Lin Lan suddenly regretted it.

Sure enough, Han Qingsong, who was still eating, suddenly finished his meal. He set down his bowl and chopsticks, looking at Lin Lan thoughtfully.

Lin Lan, “…” What’s going on?
