Chapter 1170: Return to the Country
After Lu Yichen left, the home returned to its original state, with He Qing responsible for picking up Yanyan and Yueyue, then going to help out at the tea shop in front.
The household chores were all being done by two helpers, with Elder Rong taking care of the vegetable patch behind the house and looking after the three little ones every day.
The tea shop was doing quite well; aside from covering the household expenses, the helpers’ and He Qing’s salaries, there was still a good amount left over. Wei Jun’s salary was now paid by Yipin Overseas Company.
Lu Yichen called from Washington, saying that this study and exchange program was fully enclosed, so they couldn’t meet for three months. He would call home and asked the family not to worry.
He also said that once the three months were over, they would return to China together.
Afterwards, Luo Qiao also got busy. Four months later, she stopped running back home in the mornings and afternoons, only coming back at noon.
It wasn’t that she was lazy and didn’t want to come back; indeed, she didn’t have that much milk anymore.
The little ones were initially unhappy with the powdered milk, but as they waited and waited without their "food supply" returning, they faced reality.
Luo Qiao, from her work in data recording and analysis, joined the experiments – her accuracy higher and speed faster than others, which surprised and amazed everyone.
Two months later, Luo Qiao’s first paper since studying abroad was published, perhaps helped by Professor Wilson’s name being listed as a supervisor, which gave her some preferential treatment.
