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

Chapter 27 Sesame Pork Ribs Congee

If Mother Zhou saw this, she will definitely nag how it wastes wood. But Mother Zhou had no time to come at the moment because the family had just got their share of food, and it goes without saying that it needed to be sorted out.

When Mother Zhou heard that she had spent more than sixty yuan to buy food, her heart felt blocked.

"This is a lot less than last year." Second Sister-in-law commented.

This was true. Last year the original owner bought about 80 yuan of food, which caused a huge disturbance in the village.

Of course, wheat was also the most bought.

"It can’t be that she bought the stove and coal and have no money left?" Second Sister-in-law didn’t need an answer and kept mumbling.

As soon as this word came out, she felt that she found the truth. Last time, Fourth’s wife said that she had no money in her pocket, so she didn’t expect that she could still spend so much to buy food with the team.

This year was much less than last year. Afraid that this time she was really a mountain running out of the water!

Mother Zhou’s expression was very dark and mentally suppressed a sigh. She had witnessed how Fourth’s wife treated her three grandchildren a lot better and acted more attentive to them than before, sending large bone and fatty meat one after another. However, she was still so unreliable with money.

But her son wasn’t controlling the money. No matter how much money, it wasn’t enough for the Fourth’s wife to lose ah!

Seeing that her mother-in-law’s face wasn’t pretty, Second Sister-in-law did not say anything, but she was still somewhat pleased.

No matter how much Fourth Brother-in-law earned, it was useless. It can’t stand against a wife in the family who spends money like running water and does not treat money as money.

As for Eldest Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law, they did not have so much leisure time. Both were using sewing machines in turn, as they wanted to quickly make the clothes for the brothers so that they could do it for their own family.

The Third Sister-in-law’s speed was very fast. Er Wa’s cold-resistant, cotton-padded clothes, and trousers were soon completed. Although Mother Zhou was angry, she still took it this opportunity to send it over.

When she brought it over, she saw what her three grandchildren were drinking, something pear water. They had an expression full of satisfaction and comfort.

"Mother is here. I prepared rock sugar and pear water for the three brothers." Lin Qing He saw her come over and said.

Mother Zhou asked, "What is this? Rock sugar and pear water?"

"Well, the humidity is pretty low these days. Yesterday I saw some pear in the county city, so I bought them back. Today I stew rock sugar and pear water for them." Lin Qing He explained.

"Dates too!" Er Wa interjected.

"Delicious!" Da Wa said.

"Mother, eat." San Wa was anxious to drink.

Lin Qing He fed it to him. There was only one box of pears in her space, but when she bought it, she asked the wholesale manager to take out all the extra packaging for her, so the capacity of one box was equivalent to two boxes.

Same for the two boxes of apples.

These things were accumulated to be eaten, and her image of family destroying had long engraved into people’s hearts. If one went out and said that she was a good wife of a thrifty family, no one would believe.

Similarly, Mother Zhou also didn’t believe it. But seeing that she made it for her three grandchildren, she didn’t even comment.

"This is what your Third Sister-in-law made for Er Wa. Have a look." Mother Zhou took out the cotton-padded trousers in the basket.

With one look, Lin Qing He knew it was suitable for Er Wa. He could even wear it next winter. Of course, she had to make another set for the kids next winter.

But this set was enough this winter.

"It was hard on Third Sister-in-law. Once she finishes Da Wa, she can rest. When she gives birth, I will go to the slaughterhouse to see if there are any trotters and get two for her to stew with peanuts for more breastmilk." Said.

Mother Zhou heard her words and remarked, "How can trotters be easy to acquire?"

Naturally, Lin Qing He could tell that Mother Zhou wanted it. As she fed San Wa pear water, she stated: "I know someone. She has acquaintances inside. If there is no coupon, the price will be higher. If there is a coupon, it won’t be expensive."

As for giving food coupons privately, she knew there was no need to say everything, only she knew was enough.

Mother Zhou: "!"

She knew that Fourth’s wife wasn’t principled, and she was always able to get meat. She didn’t expect that she knew someone in the slaughterhouse!

"At that time, can you try to get trotters?" Said Mother Zhou.

They were all children of old Zhou Family. Although she loves Da Wa and his brothers more, the other children were not treated badly. Especially since Third’s wife who injured her body when she gave birth to Wu Ni and took so many years to be pregnant again. If they have the condition, naturally they would want to raise the children well.

"Wait until she gives birth." Lin Qing He replied.

However, things like trotters wasn’t a rare thing. Just needed to go to the supply and demand cooperative to tell Mei Jie in advance and there should be no problem.

Mother Zhou had initially planned to come here to admonish a sentence or two, but she got interrupted by this matter. It won’t be good to mention it now. Before leaving, she said: "If there isn’t enough food at home, let the family know."

Lin Qing He knew that she was cherishing her three grandsons, but still she was grateful. She refused, saying: "No need, there are still many left at home. But if we really don’t have any food, then I will definitely say." In the end, she left some leeway.

Mother Zhou glanced at the three grandchildren who were being raised more and more properly, so she didn’t say anything.

After her three sons ate the rock sugar and pear water, she let them continue to wrap their wool. Da Wa and Er Wa had no objection being commanded at all. And that’s because the rock sugar and pear water they drank today were so delicious!

Almost in the evening, the yarn balls were completely twined for her. Lin Qing He stewed sesame ribs congee in the casserole pot on the stove.

The sesame was the one bought today and was a bit difficult to wash. She was still able to wash it clean.

The sesame ribs congee was served with pickles and bacon. She was too lazy to heat up the bacon anymore, so she directly threw it into the congee.

However, even like this, Da Wa and Er Wa also ate happily and praised that sesame ribs congee was really delicious!

After eating, Lin Qing He tidied up the bowls and chopsticks. Seeing that the sky still wasn’t dark yet, she collected her clothes and let Da Wa and Er Wa take San Wa to play at the entrance for a while. She began to knit the sweaters.

It was only five o’clock now. At this time, most people have just started cooking in the village, while her family had finished eating.

The villagers saw Da Wa, Er Wa and San Wa playing at the door, and asked them with a smile if they had eaten white flour.

This was actually a kind of envy disease. There was no way. How much wheat and flour do the villagers get after having to work hard throughout the year?

While Lin Qing He didn’t have to do anything. She dared to buy a hundred jins of wheat with the team in one breath. Eighty percent of it becomes powder form, which was equivalent to approximately 80 jins of white flour!

How can people in the village not be envious?

"Didn’t have white flour. I ate sesame ribs congee." Da Wa raised his eyebrows and answered the man.

The man was choked and resentful walked away.

"Haven’t finished the rice at home yet?" Someone asked when they heard the ribs congee.

It was said that yesterday Lin Qing He took Zhou Dong to transport a truckload of goods back. Zhou Dong had a solid mouth and they could not pull anything out. Nobody knew what exactly Lin Qing He bought.
