Zhou Xiao Mei's current weight was around one hundred and forty jins.

Because she was only around 1.6 meters tall, this can be considered fat. When she was a girl, how many jins was she?

She was very slender. After giving birth to children one by one, she became curvier and curvier. It was also due to Su Da Lin's good culinary. Her postnatal confinement meals were particularly rich.

Now Zhou Xiao Mei couldn't lose the weight even if she wanted to. Lin Qing He told her to control her mouth. She said she couldn't control it, especially when Su Da Lin urging her to eat by her side. Saying that the fatter, the more blessed...

Lin Qing He didn't dare to say when she heard this. She mentally rolled her eyes.

It wasn't that she discriminate against fat people. Fat people didn't eat her rice. In fact, it was good for a woman to be plump. But overly fat can't do.

The first reason was because it made one appear older. The second one was one gets tired easily. The third one was that it was really hard to buy clothes.

Can you imagine the kind of despair when you can't fit the biggest size in the clothing store?

Lin Qing He didn't listen to Zhou Qing Bai's urging.

So starting today, she will eat a small portions. She had got Zhou Qing Bai to buy some corn on the cob and cook it. When she is hungry, she'll nimble the corn on the cob. And eat tomatoes, cucumbers, and fruits from the space.

She consumed meat, fish, and soup. She didn't find it too much. It was healthy diet.

Old Madam Jiang came over that day and saw that they were eating. The food was naturally excellent. However, she noticed Lin Qing He didn't eat very much. Zhou Qing Bai was persuading her to just move her chopsticks more. She spoke, "When pregnant, it's better to eat more. If your child can't absorb the nutrients in the stomach, won't it absorb yours? That would damage the mother's body more, right?"

"Auntie, you don't know. I ate a lot. Look at my complexion. It doesn't look bad, right?" Lin Qing He responded.

"It's really not bad. You have caught up with the good time now. Thinking about us back then, it was really living life with tight belt. Only when pregnant, it was slightly better." Old Madam Jiang said.

"My mother-in-law also often reminisced the bitter and sweet past. Auntie Jiang, the Hai City's side should probably have it better." Lin Qing He commented.

"It's not too much better." Old Madam Jiang replied.

After chatting for a long time, old Madam Jiang shyly brought up, "Qing He, will you be free tomorrow?"

"My nephew is coming?" Lin Qing He asked.

"My daughter-in-law told me that she will bring him here." Old Madam Jiang smilingly said.

"Alright. Bring him here." Lin Qing He nodded.

"One hour is enough. Better not tire you out." Old Madam Jiang said.

Lin Qing He nodded. She didn't be reserved with old Madam Jiang.

The next day, old Madam Jiang's daughter-in-law, Xue Mei Li brought her son Jiang Geng over. Xue Mei Li's man was the deputy chief of the regional police station. A person of status. Still, she did not dare to underestimate Lin Qing He.

She had heard from her mother-in-law. She came from the capital city and had taught foreign language at the university. She can read complete English books. Her knowledge was high.

Lin Qing He tested Jiang Geng's English proficiency. Then she bluntly said, "Are you just bad in this subject, or other ones too?"

"Just this one." Jiang Geng paused a bit. He disgruntledly answered.

He just didn't know English. Everything else was fine.

"That's fine." Lin Qing He nodded and said, "Your foundation is terrible. I have to go through the phonetic alphabet with you first. If you have time, come over. I can only spare you one hour a day."

"I'm afraid you can't teach me well." Jiang Geng looked at her suspiciously.

"Smelly boy, what are you talking about?" Xue Mei Li hurriedly uttere. Then she apologized to Lin Qing He: "Teacher Lin, don't be mind this stinky boy. He's spoiled by us."

Lin Qing He smiled. She looked at Jiang Geng and said, "Do you think I am not qualified to teach you?"

"The director of the Department of Foreign Language at Bei University can't teach you?" Zhou Qing Bai glanced at Jiang Geng.

Xue Mei Li was stunned. When she heard her mother-in-law said that Lin Qing He was teaching foreign language at the university, she knew she must be good. But she didn't expect that she was the director of the Department of Foreign Language at Bei University?

"It's temporarily suspended now." Lin Qing He glared at Zhou Qing Bai.

Zhou Qing Bai turned to Xue Mei Li. This deputy chief's wife swiftly slapped her son on the back of the head and stated, "Properly learn from Director Lin. She looked upon your grandmother's face and spare out an hour a day for you!"

"My three sons are all Bei University's student. I think my teaching method should be no problem." Lin Qing He raised her eyebrows and looked at Jiang Geng.

It went without saying she wouldn't mind a half-grown boy. He was obviously a young master and was naturally a little arrogant. But at her place, there was no arrogant student. They had to suppress it.

Jiang Geng also didn't expect her to be so outstanding. She was the director of Bei University's foreign language department. Her three sons were Bei University's students. Truly awesome. Not a fake cow.

He sat down.

Lin Qing He started to teach him. Lin Qing He's teaching method was extremely effective. In addition, Jiang Geng was indeed not that bad. He had some studying talent, so he grasped it very well.

One hour was originally a long time, but it unknowingly passed.

Jiang Geng felt that he could learn more. However, Lin Qing He ushered him out: "It's an hour, Come again next time."

"This hour passed a bit faster." Xue Mei Li listened to the whole process. Her attention was pulled in. She merrily uttered after recovering her focus. Then she said to her son: "Thank Director Lin!"

"Thank you Director Lin." Jiang Geng was a bit unconvinced before because Lin Qing He's tone was a bit egoistic. But he had to admit that he was truly respected her after this hour. She understood it was much more than his teacher!

"You should go back and memorize what I taught today. I will check it tomorrow." Lin Qing He instructed.

Xue Mei Li started to take money out. Lin Qing He said: "I told Auntie Jiang, I don't need money, It's just coming over to learn something. Mrs. Xue, you don't have to be polite with me."

"This can't do. How can there be tutoring that doesn't receive tuition fees." Xue Mei Li hurriedly maintained.

"No need to be reserved on this," Lin Qing He responded. Looking at Jiang Geng, she spoke: "How often will you come?"

"I will come tomorrow?" Jiang Geng said.

"All right." Lin Qing He replied: "This time tomorrow."

Jiang Geng nodded. Then he went back with embarrassed Xue Mei Li. They were dropping by old Madam Jiang's side to bid farewell.

Once the mother and son went home, old Madam Jiang came over and spoke, "I heard Mei Li say that you didn't accept tuition fees?"

"Just teach the kid a little high school knowledge, Auntie. You don't have to be polite with me." Lin Qing He responded.

Old Madam Jiang didn't say anything. She had already explained to her daughter-in-law. Tell grandson to remember to come over with some fruits tomorrow.

So from then on, when Jiang Geng came over for grinds, he brought fruits every day. Lin Qing He didn't say anything. Just eat it since he bought it.

Deputy Chief Jiang came home from work that day. He only saw his daughter but not his son. He knew he was getting English grinds and said, "Why do I feel that Xiao Geng is very interested in learning English recently?"
