"father!"

Little Zhiming called out in a baby voice.

"Hey! You're really a good son to your father!"

Zhou Tian held his son in his arms and kissed his tender face hard.

"Dad, it's itchy!"

Little Zhiming felt the itch on his face and immediately started giggling, shaking his little head from side to side.

"Xiaotian, stop playing with your son and come over to eat!"

At this time, Shen Yulin came out of the kitchen with food.

"Okay, I'll be right there! Let's go, son, let's go eat!"

Zhou Tian responded, holding his son, and came to the stone in the yard and sat down, looking at the millet porridge on the stone, a plate of pickles and two-grain steamed buns, he couldn't help but look up at his wife.

"Yulin, have we run out of flour? Why are you eating steamed buns made with two-grain flour?"

"Who eats white flour buns every day? Although our family has a lot of food now, we should still eat sparingly!"

Shen Yulin couldn't help but roll her eyes at her husband and handed the little Zhiming in his arms to her. Obviously, she was a little fed up with her husband's wasteful behavior. In the past, the country did not restrict the purchase of grain, and with the family's salary, it was not a big deal for their family to eat white flour buns every day.

But since 1953, when the country set food rations, if she continued to eat like that, her family would not be able to afford it with the rations.

"It seems so!"

Zhou Tian smiled a little embarrassedly when he heard this. Over the years, due to the existence of the space, he did not lack food, but he forgot the issue of food ration.

Thinking about it now, life in the past two years was indeed a bit high-profile, especially in terms of food. Although if we really talk about quantity, their family really cannot eat white flour buns every day.

Fortunately, my family lives in a courtyard house with two entrances and can live their own life behind closed doors. Otherwise, if they ate like that every day, they would have been reported long ago.

For a moment, Zhou Tian felt alert.

"It seems I have to keep a low profile from now on, even lower profile!"

After thinking about it, he said no more and started eating with his head down.

After dinner, Zhou Tian pulled out a recliner from home, placed it next to the coffee table, warmed up a cup of Ling tea, lay down on the recliner and began to relax.

After dismantling equipment for ten consecutive days, even though he had strong physical fitness, he was not an iron man after all. His physical fatigue might not be obvious, but he was extremely tired mentally. It just so happened that his superiors gave him two days off, and he was not a hardworking person.

With such a rest time, he naturally didn't want to give it up.

A pot of tea and a recliner, this is his ideal life.

Besides, the little ones are not at home, and he doesn’t know how long it has been since he last enjoyed such a leisurely day. No, it should be that he has never enjoyed it.

Shen Yulin looked at her husband's leisurely appearance and pursed her sexy lips. She wanted to say something, but when she thought that he had not rested for a long time, she swallowed the words back.

She sits next to her husband holding her child and lets him act like the boss.

August in Sijiu City can be said to be the most comfortable time of the year. The warm sunshine sprinkled on his body, making Zhou Tian close his eyes comfortably. His originally tense spirit also began to slowly relax with this comfort.

From time to time, he would raise the spiritual tea beside him with his right hand, point the spout of the pot towards himself, and slowly savor the flavor of the spiritual tea blooming in his mouth.

The slight rocking of the recliner made him feel extremely comfortable.

Unfortunately, good times are always short-lived. Just when he was feeling a little drowsy from the sun, a burst of children's laughter rang out from the front yard. Then, three naughty kids ran in from the hanging flower gate.

When they saw Zhou Tian, ​​the three naughty kids’ eyes lit up and they shouted “Dad!” directly. Then they ran to Zhou Tian and scrambled to climb on him.

Zhou Tian felt helpless and could only open his eyes, pick up his little daughter Xiao Zhiyi, put her on his lap, and then look at his two sons.

"Xiao Zhinan, Xiao Zhiqiu, where are your great-grandfather and great-grandmother?"

"Dad, great-grandma and great-grandpa met Grandma Li and her friends at the door, so they asked us to come back first!"

Before Xiao Zhiqiu could speak, Xiao Zhinan answered first.

"Really? Then where's your grandma? Didn't she come back with you?"

"Grandma is also chatting with Grandma Li and the others at the door!"

This time, Xiao Zhiqiu answered.

Seeing that his leisurely plan was ruined, Zhou Tian did not go back to sleep. He played with the three little ones for a while. Suddenly, he remembered that the three little guys were already five and almost six years old. Should he send them to school?

After all, it is already 1955. If they continue to go to school as planned, wouldn't they graduate just in time for the movement? That wouldn't be acceptable.

Thinking about it, he decided to discuss it with his wife.

At noon, after the family had lunch, Zhou Tian and Shen Yulin discussed this matter during the lunch break.

"Boss, isn't it a little too young for Xiao Zhiqiu and the others to go to school now?"

Shen Yulin looked at the five children who were already asleep and said with reluctance in his heart.

"Yes, Xiaotian and Xiao Zhiqiu are only five years old. Even if we calculate according to the lunar calendar, they are only six years old. Isn't that too young? Normally, other children are almost eight years old before they enter the first grade!"

Mother-in-law Li Yuling also advised.

As for the grandparents, they looked at the five sleeping children without saying anything. After all, in their hearts, all the affairs in the family are now decided by their eldest grandson and they will not get involved.

"Mom, wife, I know you don't want them to go to school at such a young age, but the problem is that these three little guys are very smart. Ask your daughter, these three little guys just let Xiaoting and Xiaoyu teach them some knowledge at home, their current level is enough to go to the fourth grade of elementary school!"

"Besides, since they have this talent, I think it's better to let them enter school earlier, so as to avoid regrets in the future. Besides, it's not without benefits for them. They can graduate earlier and start working earlier!"

Although he understood his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's feelings towards the three little ones, after all, this was a matter related to the future of the three little ones, so he naturally didn't want to give in.

It is already 1956. If we don't go to school now, I'm afraid that when we go to the countryside in 1965, the three little ones won't be able to escape.

He felt that ten years was too short a time even if they studied according to the routine. Perhaps they needed to skip grades to avoid the next movement.

Of course, if he really couldn't avoid it, he naturally had other ways to prevent the three little guys from going to the countryside, but doing so would be a little bit not worth it for him!
