Back to the Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise the Cubs Chapter 24 Nothing Left

Chapter 24 Nothing Left

The salesperson and her fiancé were relieved to hear that she was willing to change.

The two of them were indeed preparing for marriage and family separation.

"In the future, when the coal is used up, I will come to your wife. Make sure to get some good one." Lin Qing He said to the man.

"Don't let anyone else know about this." The man nodded and stated.

"This is for sure. My family still has three sons to raise. So I'm relying on your coal." Lin Qing He affirmed.

Both sides said goodbye to each other. The man rode back with a pot and a nylon polybag. Lin Qing He asked the salesperson to watch the good, then went to call Zhou Dong.

As soon as he saw that the coal stove and large half bag of coal, Zhou Dong was stunned again.

His Shenzi was capable! She can even get a coal stove and coal, which were used by city folks.

But this ... how much does it cost?

After the successful exchange, the salesperson went back. Lin Qing He ran the black market again and walked around. While she was at it, she took out another old-fas.h.i.+oned double-eared pot from the s.p.a.ce, wrapped it in a nylon polybag, and placed it in the cart.

There were other things, such as the foot basin and the likes. She went to the department store again. She bought hats for each of her sons. The kind with long flaps that can cover and protect the ears from frostbite.

It took three industrial coupons.

However, there were still a few industrial coupons left. Zhou Qing Bai sent it back last time. So she looked at it and bought woolen yarn to knit sweaters for the children.

Initially, she wanted to buy shoes and socks, however, socks required cloth coupons, and canvas shoes required industrial coupons. The remaining cloth coupon and industrial coupons were used for two large duvet covers, hats, and woolen yarn. All gone now.

But with that bolt of cloth, socks and shoes can be made.

"Can little Xi make shoes and socks?"

She was mostly done, so Lin Qing He and Zhou Dong ate the white bun when they prepared to go home, Lin Qing He asked.

This time, only one per person.

"She can." Zhou Dong nodded quickly after hearing this as he ate a big white bun that he might not have had the opportunity to eat again in the future.

"Then I might have to trouble Little Xi to help this time to make a pair of shoes and two pairs of socks for each of my boys." Lin Qing He said.

"That's no problem. Do you need to make clothes? My sister also knows how to make clothes." Zhou Dong voiced out.

"No need. It's enough to ask their Eldest Aunt to make clothes for them, she is idle." Lin Qing He replied. What's more, Eldest Sister-in-law was also willing to make it.

After all, she will also be paid, and not let her work in vain.

When they returned home, it was almost four o'clock. Lin Qing He was exhausted to death.

Once things were unloaded, she let Zhou Dong enter the house to drink, and then let him go back first.

Mother Zhou and the children weren't home. They should be over at old Zhou family's side. Today, the production team went to hand over the public ration, so no work to do.

Tomorrow was the big day, food distribution.

Although Lin Qing He was very tired, she still sorted the things out in one go. She also took the old-style ca.s.serole pot from the s.p.a.ce.

Now she had a coal stove, she can simply stew everything in the ca.s.serole.

The quilt was placed in the room, and two mattresses were also taken out.

Taking this opportunity, Lin Qing He can bring out a lot of things, such as a kitchen knife. She planned to ask Mother Zhou whether she wants to buy one back, and an industrial coupon wasn't needed.

As for giving it to Mother Zhou directly, forget it. She may faint.

If she remembered correctly, the old Zhou family should be missing a few knives.

All the other supplies were put in her room. Things such as enamel or foot basin were all placed where they should go.

So many things brought back, but truthfully, there was nothing much when spread out.

However, many people saw her and Zhou Dong on the way back. They especially noticed those big and small bags, that was filling the whole cart.

Afraid that even if several households group together to buy, won't reach half of hers!

Everyone in the village marveled, but their eyes that were looking at her nearly screamed this wealth diminis.h.i.+ng woman mostly likely used up all the money sent back by Zhou Qing Bai!

At home, Mother Zhou soon heard the news. Her heart ached when she brought a cartload of goods back.

"Let's go, back to your house to see what good things your mom has bought!" Mother Zhou returned with Er Wa and San Wa.

The few sisters-in-law looked at each other. Now there's not much to do as it was idle, so Eldest Sister-in-law and Second Sister-in-law closely followed.

As for Third Sister-in-law, she was not interested, since she won't have a share of the things.

She currently wanted to swiftly finish the clothes, and then make one for her daughter. Last night, she felt a little cold when sleeping.

Her speed was also extremely fast. It wasn't possible today, but tomorrow morning she will definitely be able to finish Er Wa's cotton coat.

There was a sewing machine in the old Zhou's house. After Lin Qing He moved out, Mother Zhou used the remaining money and coupon to buy it back in a fit of anger and put it in old Zhou's house to use.

So with a sewing machine, the speed was very fast. It just takes more time to process the cotton, otherwise, it can be faster.

Back to Mother Zhou who brought back Er Wa and San Wa, and also Eldest Sister-in-law and Second Sister-in-law. When they arrived, Lin Qing He had already been tidied up most of the thing.

"Mother, Grandma heard that you bought a whole cartful back?" Er Wa, the astute one, came over to hug her leg and said.

As soon as she saw that Mother Zhou and her sisters-in-law came together, Lin Qing He knew what was up and said, "A whole cartful? That's because they exaggerate too much. How can there be so many things."

As soon as Mother Zhou inspected, she really didn't see much. So she was internally relieved.

At this moment, Second Sister-in-law saw the coal stove in the kitchen and widened her eyes: "My G.o.d, Fourth's wife, where did you get the coal stove? Why did you bring it back?"

"I entrusted someone the last time I went, so I brought it back while I'm there this time as well as the more than half of the bag of coal. It is because of these things, it looked much." Lin Qing He explained like this.

"There is a hearth in the house!" Mother Zhou's heart hurt and also felt pained on behalf of her son. This coal stove was used by people in the city. To give Fourth's wife, who knows how much money was used to exchange!

"The stove is inconvenient. It is much more convenient to have a coal stove in winter. What's more, when placed in the room, it can be warm the room," Lin Qing He said.

How much does it cost?

Mother Zhou did not say this out loud, while Eldest Sister-in-law and Second Sister-in-law understood.

"By the way, Eldest Sister-in-law, I think the clothes you made for Da Ni and Er Ni are pretty good. Are you free to make Da Wa and their brothers two warm vests and inner pants?" Lin Qing He asked.

"You still have fabric?" Eldest Sister-in-law halted and asked.

"I do." Lin Qing He nodded. Then she entered the room, cropped a bit in the room to reserve some for Zhou Xi to make shoes and socks for the children, and brought out the rest.

"Two sets for each of them. Just lengthen it a bit, don't need to be too long. The rest of the cloth will be an effort fee for you, Eldest Sister-in-law. It should be enough to make two warm innerwear for little Zhou Yang." Lin Qing He said.

Warm innerwear and trousers can be worn on their own in the spring., meaning it wasn't necessary to make any in the spring. As for the summer, have to make two more pieces. But let's talk about it in the summer. It was too early now.
