The world was forever changing like the cloud against the deep blue sky. While time was fleet as a white pony's shadow flashing past a crevice.

The two years, 1986 and 1987, passed in a flash. This year hads entered 1988.

Many things have happened in the past two years.

For example, in 1986, Xu Sheng Qiang went to jail. He had fought with others once again. This time it was because the other party came to collect protection fees. He fought with those ruffians and had beaten one of the ruffians into a fool.

Although it was settled semi-public and semi-privately with a sum of money, Xu Sheng Qiang still had to go behind the bar. That was because he ran into a bad time. He was used as an example and sentenced for three years.

This year was the third year. Almost time to come out.

When this incident happened, everyone in old Zhou family frowned. But apart from frowning, there was no other reaction.

Because they were in the capital, Xu Sheng Mei had came over to beg. It was impossible to hide it from Mother Zhou.

So Mother Zhou knew.

But this time Mother Zhou was unexpectedly resolute. After letting this side help get it settled half-public and half-private, it ended. She didn't ask Wang Yuan to find connections.

Because this wasn't the first time for this kind of thing. Although this time it was the ruffians who started it first, but he was the one who beaten up the other into a fool. There was that sentence, being in the right turned to being unreasonable.

So in the end he was sentenced to three years. Let him stay inside. It was heard that it was a good place. No matter how bad the person was, he will be obedient after going in and coming out.

Because of this incident, First Sister and First Brother-in-law specially rushed over from their hometown and came here to plead. They wanted to find connections.

Mother Zhou put her heart into talking sense to her eldest daughter. Saying that it can't do to let him keep going like this. Without a lesson, he would cause even greater disasters in the future.

However, First Sister couldn't stand her son being imprisoned. His reputation was going to stink.

First Sister was far away in their hometown and couldn't possibly know about it. Xu Sheng Mei had called back to get the rescue. She got her mother to come and ask Zhou Family to save her brother.

Even if First Sister came, it was useless.

Old Zhou Family won't interfere any more. In fact, even Zhou Qing Bai felt that it wouldn't hurt to let this nephew stay inside for a few years.

In the end, First Sister was so angry that she put down cruel words. Saying that old Zhou Family was heartless and allowed their biological grandson and nephew to go to jail without any intervention. From then on, she don't have such relatives!

It was equivalent to cutting off all relationship. Mother Zhou was so angry that she entered the hospital for two days again.

In the end, Xu Sheng Qiang got three-year imprisonment. This year, he was about to come out.

The fact that he went in to eat prison food basically had no effect on old Zhou Family. They went about their life.

In the past two years, Lin Qing He had developed rapidly. Her tea shop business started in 1986. From 1986 to this year, 15 tea shop branches had been opened. The branches were in various regions.

The tea business was very good. Its income covered 60% of the total household income. The remaining 40% of the income came from the rest; clothing shops, dumpling shop, beverage shop, dry good shop and cigarette shop.

Because of the large number of shops, the large purchase volume was high too. Lin Qing He had cooperated with more than a dozen tea shops in the south. Since last year, Zhou Gui Lai, the youngest, had been responsible for supplier management.

After he graduated, he had already begun to take on these businesses from his family. As for the Second, he continued his studies. This year he will become a PhD student.

Lin Qing He intended to let him aim for a postdoctoral fellowship. If he can, it will be the representative of the family facade.

"Mom, Eldest Brother called back and told me to send a few kilograms of dried sea cucumbers." Third said when he got home.

"Mei Jia want to eat?" Lin Qing He was in the middle of translating. She responded without raising her head.

"Probably giving some to Brother Guo Liang. Isn't his wife pregnant?" Third poured himself a cup of chrysanthemum tea. While he was at it, he turned on the stereo and listened to popular classic tunes.

"Then send. This year, it should be your eldest brother's turn to get married. The two Weng brothers married one after another each year. Your eldest brother has bared with them for a long time." Lin Qing He said.

He had endure for a long time, no? Originally, Zhou Kai planned to get a promotion in 1986, so he instantly submit a marriage report and marry Weng Mei Jia.

But because the iron tree, Weng Guo Dong bloomed, he can only let him and Zhou Si Ni get married first.

He thought it would be fine, since it was only pushing it back one year. Unexpectedly, Weng Guo Liang and his partner was also getting married. In conclusion, he and Weng Mei Jia still haven't married yet.

"It's possible to tie the knot this year. Still, my eldest brother's love path can be regarded as troubled and difficult." Zhou Gui Lai grinned.

"Your dad is sleeping inside. Turn down the speaker and don't disturb him." Lin Qing He warned.

It was currently March. The '88's New Year hadn't passed too long ago. The weather was still cold.

Zhou Gui Lai turned the stereo down and said: "What time is it now? Why is dad sleeping? It's nearly time to pick up little sister from school."

Going by year, little Mi Mi was two and half year old. If she went by nominal age, she was considered four years old.

Originally, Zhou Qing Bai was reluctant to let his little girl go to the kindergarten. But he couldn't hold back his little girl when she wanted to go.

The kindergarten wasn't far away. Only five minutes by car. It was a very good kindergarten. It wasn't just little Mi Mi going, Zhou Er Ni's twins and Zhou San Ni's Pang Pang attended too.

Though the three of them were older than little Mi Mi, they all had to call Aunt when they meet each other.

As for Wang Yuan's twins, they thought Mi Mi's name was ‘Gu Gu'.

Because she was young and only two and half years old, Zhou Qing Bai was worried that she'll be bullied. He asked Pang Pang and the twins to protect their little aunt.

Lin Qing He had a wooden look throughout the whole process. It was really over-salting the radish due to worry of blandness. She was only going in to play. Even if there was bullying, what strength can toddlers children have?

As the mother and son were talking, Zhou Qing Bai got up and punctually grabbed the car keys to pick up his daughter.

"There is still half an hour. You really don't mind the wait." Lin Qing He disgruntledly said: "Make me a cup of lemon honey."

Zhou Qing Bai made a cup for her, then made a cup for himself, and spoke, "Wife, should we go out for a trip."

His wife had long-planned a trip to Hainan. They can probably go this year.

Lin Qing He drank as she answered, "Do you want to take your daughter?"

"Definitely must." Zhou Qing Bai stated.

Zhou Gui Lai spoke "Mom and Dad, where are you going? There are so many businesses at home."

"Aren't you here." His dad glanced at him.
