NOVPUBHan Qinghua said, “Mom, just hurry up. It’s pretty great that my Third Sister-in-law is already willing to help us.”
Old Lady Han then gave Lin Lan 10 Yuan, fervently urging her to return the rest should there be spare change.
Lin Lan, well, I don’t even feel like helping you now.
As for the cotton, Lin Lan didn’t bother to worry about it and asked Old Lady Han to collect them herself. The points required for that were not considered a lot either, so she could either exchange items with other people for them or she could buy them herself.
Old Lady Han said, “You three families will put together this dowry.”
Eldest Sister-in-law Han said, “We will calculate the total expenses by the end of this. Then, we can divide it by four and each family can pay a quarter of it.”
Old Lady Han wanted the three families to share the money, but she didn’t want to include herself in the equation. All she could do was get angry that the Eldest Sister-in-law said something like this. Sigh, as expected, she couldn’t control the others now that the families are separated. Now that Eldest Sister-in-law Han was in charge of her own household and Eldest Brother Han didn’t live together with her, she naturally had the final say in everything.
Therefore, Old Lady Han felt that she was really losing more and more of her once- glorified status. What was the use of being able to control her sons? Decisions like these were still determined by the daughter-in-laws!
Old Man Han remained silent. Seeing that everyone had reached an agreement, he concluded, “Let’s do it this way then. It doesn’t have to be glamorous, but as long as we don’t embarrass ourselves, that’s good enough.”
After discussing the matter, Eldest Sister-in-law Han asked Lin Lan to go back. She didn’t want to remain in this house any longer than she had to.
Han Qinghua smiled and said, “Eldest Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law, please stay a little longer. I haven’t seen you for a while.”
Eldest Sister-in-law Han, “I’ll have to decline. I really need to go home and tidy things up a bit.”
Han Qinghua invited Han Qingsong to stay a little longer and joked, “Third Brother, it’s been a long time since the four of us brothers sat down and chatted together. Come on, stay a little longer. It’s still early, so there’s no need to be in a hurry to go home and sleep, haha.”
Han Qingsong originally wanted to talk to his eldest brother, but after hearing this, he decided, “If you want to wake early, then it’s best if you sleep earlier,” He didn’t like being invited by others, after all.
Han Qinghua, you are so inseparable from your wife!
Han Qingsong accompanied Lin Lan back home and said goodbye to Eldest Sister-in-law Han at the intersection. Eldest Sister-in-law Han didn’t seem to have anything extra to say to Han Qingsong anyways, seeing how she merely talked to Lin Lan when she had the time.
When they got home, the children weren’t back yet.
Han Qingsong moved the dining table into the house and said, “I’ll leave the bike to you for the next two days.” 𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝙤𝒎
Lin Lan said,
“Okay, I’ll go to the Third Sister’s house tomorrow and the day after that,” She remembered what the women said when they were washing clothes and asked Han Qingsong, “Have you heard any news about severe speculative sales?”
