Summer Solstice today at 10.43pm (Ireland time). Happy Summer Solstice!

Not long after Zhou Qing Bai returned from the old Zhou's house and finished drinking the ginger soup cooked by his wife, he had to visit the team leader's house.

Lin Qing He didn't mind. She collected the bowl and rinsed it.

It goes without saying, she needed to made him drink the ginger soup again. Last night, the snow was that heavy, so how could drinking one bowl be enough.

So while he was in the old Zhou's house, she cooked some more.

This time it wasn't just Zhou Qing Bai. Da Wa, Er Wa, and San Wa have a share too, but she added a little brown sugar for them. Otherwise, the three kids wouldn't drink.

Lin Qing He drank it too.

In such cold weather, drinking some ginger soup warmed one's body.

Now that the coal stove was burning, it was very convenient to cook anything. She passed babysitting San Wa to Da Wa and Er Wa. She took out the potatoes and cut them.

For lunch, stewed potato and pork belly and a shrimp skin soup were enough.

The pork belly were the ones she bought from Mei Jie yesterday. This time she 'bought' a lot.

Three jins of pork belly and a few jins of pork ribs. If she uses it frugally, they can eat it for a while.

For example, this time when she stewed potatoes and pork belly, the pork belly was thinly cut. Although it looked like a lot, it was only a few bits of meat at best, and no more.

But if it is fried with lard, it will be delicious.

Shrimp soup was much simpler.

She had prepared all the ingredients. After checking the time, it was too early. There was a clock hanging at home for time checking. The original owner saved a lot of industrial coupons to buy it. It took three months' worth of Zhou Qing Bai's salary and allowance.

Now she was enjoying the benefit. Of course, it was inevitable to take over the reputation of a spendthrift woman.

Lin Qing He returned to the room to inspect her various materials. Fortunately, she had a hunch and knew that he would be back in these few days. The rice and flour in the house were full. The eggs jar too. It was enough for a while.

What satisfied Lin Qing He the most was the 3,000 yuan with the bundle of ticket coupons that Zhou Qing Bai brought back this time.

Next year, Zhou Qing Bai will be working. At that time, there will be food per headcount. A man as big as Zhou Qingbai will certainly be able to get ten work points. So she didn’t have to worry about spending any money.

She acquired enough household tools, so there was no need to go shopping in the county city.

So now with her remaining 200 yuan, all her family had a total of 3,200 yuan. This money must be saved!

Save it for when the restrictions are dropped, and see if she can do business.

Otherwise, when gold sprout everywhere and she didn't have the capital to do anything at that time, she'll really cry.

When Lin Qing He was making such plans, Mother Zhou came over.

Seeing Mother Zhou, Lin Qing He subconsciously made her face serious at once!

Tha's right, she can muddle it through with Zhou Qingbai. But not with Mother Zhou. There was only so much time the original owner spent with Zhou Qing Bai.

However, she lived in the same village as Mother Zhou. She was very clear about the original owner's temper.

"Fourth's wife, do you know that old Fourth has retired?" Mother Zhou cautiously approached the matter.

She really spoiled her daughter-in-law. If Lin Qing He was a bystander, she couldn't endure and let take out her mother-in-law's dignity.

But now she was the one with authority. and simply declared: "What does old madam want to say? Did you come to ridicule me? Then ridicule! Anyway, I can't stand this life anymore. It's a good time to prepare to pack up and go home!"

She didn't even call her 'mother'! Mother Zhou knew the seriousness of the matter and quickly interjected: "Fourth's wife, don’t be impulsive. Da Wa and his brothers are already this big. Can you bear to leave them all behind? Fourth already retired. And such a big man, he can still support you and the kids, right? I already urged him to come back and have a good talk with you. How you live in the past, is how you will live in the future. You don’t have to go to the field. Fourth alone is enough! "

This was the rough draft she made without giving Zhou Qing Bai a head up, before coming here.

"How I live in the past? Marrying him for so many years, I acted like a widow. Why I'm doing this? I believe you all know very well. But now he just came back empty-handed like this. How can I let this matter drop? No way! "Lin Qing He acted out.

Such an act of wickedness ah!. She really didn't want to throw a fit, but she must.

If she didn’t have a tantrum, she would have to go to the field. If she goes, it would be treated that it was a natural thing. It's what she supposed to do.

People ah, sometimes they have to be like this. Lazy people be diligent sometimes, and everyone will praise her. While diligent people be lazy occasionally, and everyone shakes their heads and never expected her to be such a person.

This is reality.

She didn't want to become the second kind, and she can't act like the second kind.

So she must take this opportunity now to let Father Zhou and Mother Zhou have the impression that they can celebrate if she didn't throw a fit and stay behind to take care of Zhou Qing Bai and her sons. Then they won't nag behind her back how she didn't go work in the field and dump it all on their son and feel it was fortunate that she was still willing to stay.

Of course, the most important thing was that this was in line with her personality.

Mother Zhou knew that she will definitely persist, and she repeatedly persuaded: "All one family, what is there to drop or not. Fourth is a good man. You have no loss from marrying him..."

"It's your old Zhou's family who have no loss. I, by myself, gave you, Zhou Family, three grandsons. Adding up the three can't even match one of me. I married over at a young age. He, Zhou Qing Bai come home for so many years doesn't even amount to a month. What is the difference between me and a widow? Who is on the losing end here! "Lin Qing He interrupted her and refuted.

Mother Zhou quickly responded: "Mother doesn't mean that. Now Fourth has retired, he will never let you suffer. Da Wa's Mother, don't do impulsive things!"

"Not let me suffer. I 'm nearly suffering to death. This isn't suffering? He stepped down now, how can I still have face in the village? The villagers must be secretly laughing at me. Not mentioning the villagers, just my Second Sister-in-law only. She must have gloated in delight a lot. Who knows, how she'll pay attention to me behind my back! "Lin Qing He's face flushed with embarrassment and uttered.

"No, she won't. Although your Second Sister-in-law has a nit-picking personality, she doesn't dare to do it to you," Mother Zhou denied quickly.

After all, this fourth daughter-in-law was also a strong character. She never let Second's wife profit.

"What doesn’t dare? She doesn't dare only because of looking at Da Wa's Father's face. She's thinking about whether her son will be able to get some benefits in the future, so she doesn't dare. Now he has retired, she won't be polite "Lin Qing He said, and then turned the topic back:" Old madam, you don't need to persuade me. I will not easily settle this matter with Zhou Qing Bai! "

"Fourth got a wound. Please let him nurse it well sick and leave any illness root." Mother Zhou hurried coaxed.

Lin Qing He heard these words and immediately spat out a vicious sentence: "None of my damn business!"
