Chapter 80. Sumr Harvest
"Why do you know, Fourth Sister-in-law?" Zhou Xiao i’s cheeks flushed red.
"Why else do you think I told him about your day off tomorrow? If he cos to pick you up tomorrow, then you should seriously consider it. If he doesn’t, his head will be too thick and also proves that his relationship with his uncle isn’t great, to not even give a reminder." Lin Qing He finished and went back.
When she went to bed at night, she brought up Su Da Lin to Zhou Qing Bai.
"Quite a good lad. Shorter than you, almost one-eighty." Zhou Qing Bai’s height was almost one ter eighty-five, which was really tall in this era of widespread malnutrition.
"His facial features are also pretty good. A high nose that gives a bit naive feel and the eyes are contrasting black and white. Clear, no twinkle of crookedness." Lin Qing He continued.
With her face, the other youths couldn’t see Zhou Xiao i beside her. On the other hand, she can’t see her existence in Su Da Lin’s eyes. Only Zhou Xiao i was in his eyes.
"Although he stutters a bit, it’s not really important to live a life. In the future, if they quarrel, ten of him still won’t be Xiao i’s opponent. I heard Xiao i say that the house is okay. More than ten square feet. "Lin Qing He said.
Don’t look at the house of this ti with the eyes of future generations. At this ti, a whole family squeezed in the house of approximately 40 square feet.
It can be seen how much of a luxury residence Su Da Lin’s ho of 40 square ters was.
"His salary is 34 yuan a month." This salary was double of Zhou Xiao i’s.
Because Zhou Xiao i was a new worker, even if it has risen a bit this year, it was only 17 yuan. Su Da Lin has 34 yuan since he was a team leader and also because he had been working for a long ti.
A family of five, such as hers, can live well for ten dollars a month. Of course, the standard defined by the ti.
Using Lin Qing He’s standard, she had to add ten yuan. Twenty yuan was enough for her family to live comfortably.
Previously, she felt she went through the money quite quickly, but now Lin Qing He has a way to make money.
Using the pork from i Jie and her husband, she can earn approximately four yuan each ti.
Over at the black market, the at coupon wasn’t required. She could exchange it for so grain coupons, but the price was still dear. It could be as much as 1.5-1.6yuan per jin.
Pick-up was every three days, each ti five jins of at. Including the extras, it was about seven jins.
After giving i Jie a di profit, the cost of a jin of at was one yuan. She can earn five dis.
Each ti, she can earn four yuan. Once every three days, so forty yuan profit per month.
Of course, Lin Qing He was very cautious when handling pork. She specifically looked for old ladies. These old ladies usually have a large population at ho and wouldn’t cause trouble. They were more careful than she was when they exchanged.
In a month, she can earn this amount. Even if her own consumption was big, she can still save a lot.
Lin Qing He was quite satisfied. What’s more, she wanted to put in an effort to save money. Saving money this way, ant she’ll have a lot saved by the ti the restrictions dropped. She’ll have enough capital.
These were too far in the future, let’s get back to Zhou Xiao i’s matter.
After listening to what she said, Zhou Qing Bai uttered: "You think he’s good, then it’s fine."
"You trust my eyes so much?" Lin Qing He bead and said to him.
Zhou Qing Bai’s lips slightly curved and silently looked at her. Lin Qing He found that his smile was really pretty, even though he rarely smiled.
"If I guess right, Xiao i will probably marry this year. We don’t have much stuff but at that ti, we’ll add a new quilt to her dowry." Lin Qing He pondered.
In this period, a new quilt was an excellent product. What’s more, it displayed how great the relationship was between two sisters-in-law. Otherwise, which sister-in-law will give such a quilt?
"You decide." Zhou Qing Bai didn’t interfere with these things at ho.
Lin Qing He hugged his waist and comnted, "You have lost a lot of weight during this ti."
She nurtured him so well in the winter, fat and strong. Now, they were about to enter the sumr days and he had clearly lost weight.
"I haven’t." Zhou Qing Bai shook his head, only got strong.
"Wife, have you recovered yet?" Zhou Qing Bai’s voice beca hoarse again.
Lin Qing He coughed dryly and replied, "That thing of mine hasn’t left yet."
Zhou Qing Bai sighed out a breath. Lin Qing He giggled as she pulled his cheeks, "Why are you so improper now?"
When have I been proper to you?
Zhou Qing Bai raised an eyebrow, his eyes revealed this ssage.
Lin Qing He understood it and responded with a faint smile: "When you first ca back, you were. I told you to go to sleep next door. Didn’t you agree so readily? I thought you had no interest in ."
Zhou Qing Bai beca helpless.
How can it be said like this? His biggest wish when he ca back was that she could peacefully live.
Human’s desire will always get bigger and bigger. Although she had a bad temper, her care for him had no lacking. Although she was still lukewarm to him in that while, he can feel that she was different from before.
So he didn’t know when he started to want to be close to her.
"Hurry up and sleep. Next month is the sumr harvest. Instead of conserving strength, you want to toss around," Lin Qing He urged.
Zhou Qing Bai hugged her as he dozed off.
It was now May.
In May, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and the loach and ricefield eel ca out in the field.
As Zhou Qing Bai busied away, he would bring so back from ti to ti. It wasn’t just him, Da Wa, the lad liked to catch loach.
He carried a bucket in joy. Both Er Wa and San Wa followed too. Because the water was not deep and it was all in the mud ditch, Lin Qing He had let them be. But she did warn Da Wa to keep an eye on his little brothers from ti to ti. Da Wa was quite responsible.
The loach that was brought back was raised in clear water for one night and can be eaten the next day.
It was loach and tofu, or iron-plated loach, or braised loach. Including Zhou Qing Bai, who didn’t like the earthy taste, they all loved with these dishes.
In a blink, it was early June.
The sumr harvest will begin at the end of this month.
But in the past few days, it was raining. And it was pretty big.
"Will this affect the sumr harvest?" Lin Qing He asked.
"No." Zhou Qing Bai stayed at ho as he didn’t need to work on rainy days.
"It’s great that it won’t, otherwise we won’t have anything to eat. We’re counting on this crop." Lin Qing He remarked.
But God was doing his beautiful work. It had been pouring for seven-eight days. In mid-June, it started to clear up.
What’s more, it was hot sunny days.
The sumr harvest’s horn sounded until the end of June.
On such important days like Sumr Harvest, the whole village was going to participate, except for Lin Qing He. Da Wa and Er Wa joined in, as they could also get points for collecting wheat.
Lin Qing He managed the dostic animals at ho, then prepared als and brought it over with San Wa once it was done. The whole family had a picnic under the tree.
