NOVPUBShe got up and said goodbye to Eldest Brother Han before Eldest Sister-in-Law Han followed immediately.
Han Jinyu was angry as she rushed over and grabbed Lin Lan. With tears streaming down her face and looking as if she was extremely wronged, she complained, “Lin Lan, you are too evil! How could you interfere with my good future?”
Lin Lan frowned, pulled her arm back and said coldly, “What do you mean ‘I interfered with your good future’? Don’t be so shameless. I couldn’t care less whether or not you want to marry, so do what you want,” She snorted and raised
her feet to walk away. Eldest Sister-in-Law Han then followed her directly behind.
Behind her, Han Jinyu was so angry that she burst into big fat tears, “Ah, I won’t get married, I won’t get married!”
…
Eldest Sister-in-law Han said, “I don’t even know what my last name is anymore. If we are capable of doing it, we won’t shirk it. But if we need to prepare so many things, we won’t be able to do it no matter what we sell. Even if we sell our daughters and sons, no one would want them.”
Lin Lan said, “Let her do whatever she wants. Others can’t even afford a quilt and she wants 3? Have her wake up from her daydream before we discuss this again.”
Lin Lan and Eldest Sister-in-Law Han parted ways at the intersection and went home separately.
There was no sound coming from inside the house. When Lin Lan entered, she saw that Xiaowang was sleeping in the hay with several puppies in his arms. Wangwang, who was lying on the side, licked him from time to time.
Lin Lan, “…” She was caught off guard at how everything suddenly became filled with cuteness. The thought of Han Jinyu merely evaporated into smoke and faded away.
She carried Xiaowang onto the kang, put a cloth sheet over his belly and then went to the vegetable garden to pick some greens for cooking.
Not long after, the children came back one after another. Sanwang held the wine bottle that stored all the cicada larvaes that they had caught. These bugs were going to be used to feed the chickens.
Dawang also carried a bundle of grass whereas Erwang and Maisui had also picked out some wild vegetables.
After the rain, the ground was wet and the soil was relatively damp as well. Regardless, their clothes were all soddened with water. Lin Lan asked them to wash up and change into a new set of clothes first.
The hen that Han Qingsong brought back yesterday actually laid an egg this morning, so Lin Lan decided to keep it for two days to observe it a bit more. If it laid more eggs, they would keep it; If it didn’t lay eggs, then they would kill it and eat the meat. After all, food couldn’t be wasted.
So instead of stewing chicken in the evening, the family stuck with eating home-cooked dishes.
When it was almost 6 o’clock in the evening, Han Qingsong came back home on his bike with a round basket tied to the back of the vehicle.
Lin Lan hurriedly greeted him, “What delicious food did Third Brother bring us today?” Yesterday it was a chicken, what is it today?
Han Qingsong, “The Commune got us a few melons.”
He brought the basket down and put it on the water counter as Lin Lan ushered the children to take a look at it. There were some big fat peaches, an orange-red pumpkin, a few oriental pickling melons (cucumbers) and a few musk melons.
“That’s so great!”
