Pursued by the Heavenly Dao, first level up in the courtyard.

Qi Bing had good luck along the way, his strength continued to grow, and he achieved various accomplishments.

Looking back, he felt a great sense of accomplishment.

Thinking of his two sons, he was filled with anticipation.

His two sons are both level sixteen humans with extraordinary cultivation talent and exceptional learning ability.

The Mountain and River Cauldron absorbs and suppresses the fortune, and the national fortune of the Great Xia Dynasty only increases.

With the help of the Human Race's Investiture of the Gods, the Great Xia will sooner or later become invincible in the Lesser Thousand Worlds, and the Qi family will surely become the invincible family in this Lesser Thousand Worlds.

Winter has passed and spring has returned; the world of courtyard houses has entered a new year.

At the beginning of the new year, Qi Bing used his divine power to make two wicked women quarrel and draw their knives.

You slash me once, I slash you once more, you slash me again, I slash you once more.

After a dozen or so stabs, the two vicious women died together.

There are certain things that one can tolerate, but few can tolerate.

The invincible Blue Star, and Qi Bing who isn't a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, is becoming increasingly capricious in his actions.

The Qin family's courtyard house.

Qin Huairu said, "Brother De, I'm pregnant."

Without hesitation, Qin Youde asked, "What do you have?"

Qin Huairu said, "Brother De, I'm pregnant."

Qin Youde was stunned for a few seconds, then burst into excitement: "Huai Ru, you're pregnant with my child?"

Qin Huairu nodded, hoping in her heart that she was carrying a son.

If Banggeng hadn't died, even if she had married Qin Youde, she most likely wouldn't have gone to get her IUD removed.

Bang Geng, who has all his limbs intact and is of normal intelligence, holds an extremely high place in Qin Huairu's heart.

After Banggeng became mentally disabled, Qin Huairu initially felt sorry for him, but later grew tired of him.

Now that she only has two daughters and needs her son to support her in her old age, Qin Huairu secretly had her IUD removed.

Qin Youde was of normal ability and worked hard, so Qin Huairu became pregnant.

Qin Huairu said, "Brother De, it's been over a month."

Qin Youde was overjoyed: "Huai Ru, in just over eight months, I'll be a father."

The following morning, at the North City Institute of Industry and Agriculture.

Every morning before eight o'clock, Lin Fan, Ye Qiu and others would chat for a while.

Lin Fan asked, "Old Li, are you sure Qin Huairu is pregnant?"

Li Kun nodded: "Old Su and I are both certain that Qin Huairu is pregnant. Obviously, Qin Huairu has had her IUD removed."

Xiao Ze said with a half-smile, "If Qin Huairu is carrying a son, will he grow up to be like Bang Geng?"

Chen Bo said, "Without the unreasonable and argumentative Zhang Cuihua, it would be impossible to be like Bang Geng."

Ye Qiu agreed, saying, "Bang Geng's becoming a master thief in the drama is largely due to Qin Huairu, Zhang Cuihua, and He Yuzhu. If Zhang Cuihua hadn't taught him wrong things, Qin Huairu hadn't protected him, and He Yuzhu hadn't indulged him, Bang Geng wouldn't have become a master thief."

Su Hai said, "The guy in this world is just a thief within the family; he doesn't seem to be stealing anything outside yet."

After chatting for a while, the six time travelers each began their work.

Qi Bing, who had entered the Xuanhuang World, played billiards with Zheng Juan, You Fengxia, and Qin Jingru.

With his superb billiards skills, it's common for him to hit the ball all the way to the end in one stroke.

After playing all morning and having lunch, Qi Bing returned to the villa outside.

Every day is pretty much the same; although the days are somewhat monotonous, they are fulfilling and pleasant.

Upon learning that Qin Huairu was pregnant, some people in the courtyard were envious, while others were shocked.

Around 7 p.m., Yang Ruihua, who could suck up dirt from the ground, set his sights on Yan Bugui again.

Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang, and Yan Jiecheng have all passed away, leaving the Yan family without any sons.

Yang Ruihua, in his early fifties, used the excuse of carrying on the Yan family line to righteously and earnestly seek out Yan Bugui.

......

On Saturday morning, Qi Bing drove his family to the river to go fishing.

Since the beginning of the year, schools in Chongqing have been holding classes five days a week and resting for two days on weekends.

My father-in-law, Liu Yongfeng, and mother-in-law, Chen Xiaoya, have both taken longevity pills. They are both 58 years old this year and are still in good health.

The retirement age for this grand man in the world of courtyard houses is sixty-five.

People in both urban and rural areas can start receiving retirement pensions from the age of 65.

Retirement benefits are divided into nine levels, with level nine being the lowest and level one the highest.

The retirement pay for a level nine pension is one-third of the average local wage, while the retirement pay for a level one pension is three times the average local wage.

The amount of retirement pay depends on the amount of merit earned and the rank before retirement.

Level 3, academicians, and three-star guards and above are all eligible for Level 1 retirement pay.

According to current standards, more than 90% of the people in Daxia can only receive a maximum of level eight retirement pay.

For merits of the third class or equivalent, retirement pay increases by one level; for merits of the second class or equivalent, retirement pay increases by two levels; for merits of the first class or equivalent, retirement pay increases by three levels; and for merits of the special class or equivalent, retirement pay increases by four levels.

Merit increases retirement pay; select the highest level of merit.

When determining retirement pay levels, three contributions at the same level are equivalent to one contribution at a higher level.

Qi Bing's parents-in-law can work for another seven years, with over forty years of service, and their retirement pension will be increased by one level.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Liu Yongfeng and Chen Xiaoya's retirement pensions will both be set at level eight, which is two-thirds of the average local wage.

The average wage for local residents was calculated, taking into account everyone, including unemployed children and the elderly.

If the average wage in the area is only considered for those with working income, the amount of retirement benefits is too high, which is a considerable burden on Daxia.

After retiring at 65, I can still earn extra money by fishing, or do other things.

Even with just a level nine retirement pension, one can live comfortably without worrying about food and drink.

Orphans without parents have welfare homes in Daxia.

For elderly people without children, Daxia has nursing homes.

Upon arriving at their destination, Qi Bing, Liu Yongfeng, Chen Xiaoya, Liu Xiaoqian, Qi Zhengwen, and Qi Zhengwu each chose a fishing spot.

Fishing is for everyone, regardless of age, gender, or size. Most people who catch a fish will develop a love for fishing.

Nowadays, there are no mahjong parlors outside, so some people who like to play mahjong play at home.

Nowadays, with a lack of recreational activities, many people go fishing.

Qi Zhengwen and Qi Zhengwu, both ten years old this year, are 1.6 meters tall, strong, and very powerful.

"Grandpa and Grandma, I caught a fish!"

"Grandpa and Grandma, I caught a fish too!"

Without cheating, the two sons of Qi's soldiers caught fish before they even opened for business.

"Hehe, I caught a big fish."

Liu Xiaoqian's laughter caught Qi Bing's attention.

Chen Xiaoya looked at Qi Bing and Liu Yongfeng and said, "You two haven't caught anything yet, but we've already caught something."

I fished until 11 o'clock, and the total catch was about 50 kilograms.

They took away more than 20 kilograms of fish, and released the rest of the catch back into the river.

Back at the villa, we worked together to prepare a whole fish feast.

Chen Xiaoya sighed, "Xiaoqian, if only your brother had a cordless phone, he could call them over for dinner."

Qi Bing said, "Dad, Mom, Xiaoqian and I will pay for a cordless phone for my older brother."

Liu Yongfeng said, "You don't need to pay. We've hardly ever used our salaries. We'll buy them cordless phones."

In order to reduce expenses and streamline personnel as much as possible, the number of public officials is small and the number of people issued wireless telephones is relatively small.

The wireless phones produced by Yucheng Industrial Group began to be sold to ordinary people, with a unit price of one thousand yuan.

After lunch, Qi Bing accompanied his family to buy a cordless phone and some groceries, and then went to Liu Daqiang's house for dinner.

Liu Xiaoqian asked, "Jianming, you'll graduate high school next year. Are you confident about getting into university?"

Liu Jianming said confidently, "Auntie, I rank second in my class and thirteenth in the whole grade. I am confident that I can get into Chongqing University of Technology."

Founded eleven years ago, Yucheng Industrial School is now the top junior high school, top senior high school, and top university in China.

The once renowned Xiaqing University... a disastrous university, with its excellent teachers joining the university division of Yucheng Industrial School, has long since become mediocre.

Qi Bing disliked certain universities, and with a little effort, some of their excellent teachers transferred to Yucheng Industrial School.
