Back to the Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise the Cubs

Chapter 385 Truth


Chapter 385. Truth

The two sisters-in-law came out after their conversation. Lin Qing He took out a women's watch from the cloth bag and said, "I prepared this watch for Wu Ni. She's going to college, she must have a watch."

"This...can't really bear to?" Third Sister-in-law uttered embarrassedly.

She bought one piece for Third Brother. It cost more than a hundred. It made her feel pained for a while.

But it can't be helped. He needed a watch to see the time.

In comparison, Third Brother Lin and Third Sister-in-law Lin were really frugal with money. They started earlier than Third Brother, If their sister, Lin Qing He hadn't given him that piece, he would still be reluctant to buy it.

A watch for over one hundred was too expensive.

"Yang Yang and Wu Ni both get one. Consider it as a gift for them for going to college." Lin Qing He maintained.

Third Brother Lin scratched his head. His sister also gave him one.

Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai want to go back to their old home. After all, Third Brother was doing pretty good here, so there was nothing to worry about.

It was a rare chance to come back. They got to go back to the village and have a look. When they go back, they can answer Mother Zhou if she asks.

"How can that do? You have to stay here for dinner tonight. It's not too late to go back after eating." Third Sister-in-law hurriedly urged.

"When we go home, Eldest Sister-in-law won't leave us hungry?" Lin Qing He smiled and assured.

"Still won't do. This time you're back and you haven't even eaten a meal at our home, how can that do?" Third Sister-in-law maintained.

"Eat early in the evening. Then go back when you are full." Third Brother backed her up.

It would be ungracious not to accept the two's kind offer, so they stayed for dinner with Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law.

It was only five o'clock after dinner. Third Brother Lin had already ridden the motorcycle over and let his brother-in-law bring his sister back home. Tomorrow he will continue to use the bicycle to transport the goods.

Lin Qing He didn't be polite with him, so Zhou Qing Bai brought her back to the village.

Third Brother couldn’t help but envy and commented: "This motorcycle is so fast and labor-saving."

"I heard Qing He say that one costs more than 700. Simply too expensive." Third Sister-in-law responded.

"More than seven hundred?" Third Brother couldn't help but tut.

He was tutting now. But wait until he sees Third Brother Lin change from bicycle to motorcycle and moves so many goods back and forth like the wind. He'll feel that his life was difficult.

When Zhou Qing Bai and Lin Qing He returned to the village, Eldest Sister-in-law and Eldest Brother had gotten off work and were eating at home.

Zhou Qing Bai drove the motorcycle directly to old Zhou's side.

This motorcycle was a rare thing. It caused a sensation throughout the whole village. Currently, it was dinner time in the countryside. Everyone came over to the old Zhou's house with their rice bowls in hand.

Lin Qing He never wanted to deal with this, so it was all left to Zhou Qing Bai. She went into the courtyard with Eldest Siter-in-law.

First, she took out the candies and snacks from the cloth bag and gave them to children in First Branch and Second to share. Then she went into the house with Eldest Sister-in-law.

Second Sister-in-law glanced at the things the children had brought back but didn't speak.

Zhou Liu Ni was already chewing on a piece of candy in her mouth. She spoke: "Every year, it's just two packs of candies and a box of snacks. Now that she makes so much money and only willing to give us this bit. Really stingy.

Zhou San Ni swept a glance at her before she lowered her head to continue eating. This concealed the look of disgust in her eyes.

Lin Qing He didn't pay any heed to the Second Branch.

She entered the room to chat with Eldest Sister.

Now the village got electricity, every household had electric lights.

"I heard Yang Yang say that you and his uncle went to the south again. I knew that you'll be back." Eldest Sister-in-law jollily said.

"At the end of the holiday period, I got to come back. In the whole year, we can only make this one trip back." Lin Qing He uttered.

"Sit down first. I'll go cook noodle." Eldest Sister-in-law stated.

"No need to busy yourself. We came back after eating at Third Sister-in-law's side." Lin Qing He smiled.

"Since you're back, no need to eat at her side. My side killed a chicken to entertain you two." Eldest Sister-in-law responded.

"Third Sister-in-law had insisted. If not, Qing Bai and I were going to come to eat Eldest Sister-in-law's cooking tonight." Lin Qing He said with a smile.

Then she talked to Eldest Sister-in-law about Zhou Er Ni: "Don't worry about Er Ni, Eldest Sister-in-law. Her roots are straight. She won't do badly in the future."

Eldest Sister-in-law grinned and said, "It's due to your guidance. If were me instead, she might already have a baby now."

If she didn't go to the capital with her fourth aunt, Lin Qing He, Zhou Er Ni would already be married now.

"I heard Third Sister-in-law say that San Ni got engaged?" Lin Qing He brought up.

"She is. It's not bad." Eldest Sister-in-law replied.

"I heard that he's ten years older, his legs are a little lame, and his temper is also hot?" Lin Qing He frowned.

"It's all the truth. However, he is very concerned about San Ni." Eldest Sister-in-law said.

Seeing Lin Qing He's expression of disapproval, she sighed: "You didn't know. This marriage has been settled now. However, it can't be said that it's that bad of a marriage."

Eldest Sister-in-law knew more than Third Sister-in-law. Third Sister-in-law had moved to the city after all. The man's side was in the mountains, which was a bit far from here. It takes almost a day to walk there.

"I asked your eldest brother to ride the bicycle to that neighborhood to inquire." Eldest Sister-in-law told.

It can be said that she and Eldest Bother were more concerned for this niece than her biological parents, Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law.

The guy was twenty-eight this year. Certainly ten years older than the eighteen-year-old Zhou San Ni.

But he wasn't really that terrible.

It was that his village can't do. One had to take the mountain road, even if the conditions weren't so bad. It was just the girls weren't willing to marry there.

When they go back to their maternal family, they have to walk a lot of mountain roads. Anyone who was not careful can fall off, which was very dangerous.

"It wasn't like he didn't get any introduction. It just that he didn't want to marry those widows who have lost their men. So in the course of time, he has been delayed until now. Because people often introduce those widows to him, he simply drove out the matchmakers. That's why he was left with a reputation for being bad-tempered," Eldest Sister-in-law explained.

"How did San Ni get brought up since he lived so far away?" Lin Qing He frowned again.

"San Ni chose him herself." Although Eldest Sister-in-law and Lin Qing He were the only ones in the room, Eldest Sister-in-law lowered her voice.

"Huh?" Lin Qing He was surprised.

"Your third sister-in-law doesn't know about this. I had asked San Ni." Eldest Sister-in-law said.

Zhou San Ni and the man met when they were going to the market. In fact, that side was in the neighboring county. Not considered in their county, but another county.

It was also a coincidence. Zhou San Ni had gone to the city with a bag of soybeans to see if anyone will buy them. Naturally, this was under Second Sister-in-law's order.

She herself wanted to sell it to Third Sister-in-law. But because she had a bad relationship with Third Sister-in-law, she couldn't put down her face. So she called Zhou San Ni, the hardworking daughter.

Zhu San Ni never talked too much. She just carried it on her back to the city. But a bag of soybeans was a few dozens of jins. Even when Zhou San Ni was accustomed to working, how could it be so easy?
