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

Chapter 196. Want one more

Lin Qing He felt it was great to be a teacher, even when she had to manage work and home life.

The salary was 13 yuan. There were also a few cloth coupons and food coupons issued at the end of the year. Even if one didn't need them, many people would be rushing to exchange for them. This too was another kind of subsidy.

During the summer vacation, Lin Qing He was idle, while Zhou Qing Bai wasn't. The work in the field that should be done were needed to be done. This was because the seeds of this season were connected to the result of the autumn harvest. Can't be careless at all.

"Mother, I'm going swimming with my eldest brother and the rest." San Wa said.

"Tie this piece of foam to your arm." Lin Qing He went to grab a piece of foam.

This was the foam box that she used to pack the buns in. After the buns were finished, the box was left. After taken apart, it was bundled together. It was very buoyant.

San Wa took the foam block and headed over.

Lin Qing He also went over to take a look. Seeing that he was really tied to his arm, she didn't say anything.

The boys in the country must learn to swim. Da Wa knew how to. Er Wa too. San Wa hadn't grasped it yet. He was still learning.

This was fun for children in summer. Also, swimming was an excellent way to exercise.

"Keep an eye on your brother." Lin Qing He reminded Da Wa and Er Wa.

"Teacher Lin, don't worry. I will watch the three of them for you," said a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy.

"OK. Thank you very much." Lin Qing He smiled at him.

The last time she collected mushrooms, this boy picked a lot. When she collected eel, he also captured a lot. Lin Qing He had always been fair when doing trade. She never shorted them a penny. That's why the youth's impression of Teacher Lin couldn't be any better.

And children, they got natural awe toward teachers.

Little Su Cheng was also present, but he didn't get into the water. He was digging for mud loach with a few other kids around his age at one side. Lin Qing He let him be.

It was almost evening when these brothers came back together.

"Fourth Aunt, what are we eating today?" Little Su Cheng asked as soon as he came back.

Although Su Da Lin stutters, it wasn't inherited. Especially since little Su Cheng grew up at old Zhou house and been in contact with articulate children. He was also very fluent in speaking.

"We'll eat braised little Su Cheng today." Lin Qing He replied.

Little Su Cheng froze. While San Wa laughed and then chirped 'braised little Su Cheng'.

Little Su Cheng grinned too. Don't judge him by his age as he was clever. He knew it was a joke.

Today they ate fried tomatoes with eggs, fried pork with cucumbers, loach tofu soup, and a shrimp skin soup.

At the beginning of this year, Da Wa still had cramps. But now, it basically didn't happen. Da Wa piled up a lot of height this year. Before, Lin Qing He thought he would grow to 1.55 meters at most this year. But he was already 1.55m in the first half of the year. By the end of the year, afraid he's going to be 1.6m.

Lin Qing He reserved a large portion of the daily two bottles of milk for him. The two small ones hadn't reached the time yet, so there was no need to order so many.

However, when this year's cloth coupon is issued, it will be necessary to make new clothes for Da Wa. Even if she left some extra room in last year's clothes, it wasn't big enough for this year. She'll leave it for Er Wa.

Still, Lin Qing He had a sense of accomplishment when looking at this young man. He was quite like his father. She felt content.

In mid-August, Su Da Lin and Zhou Xiao Mei came to the countryside for vacation.

Little Su Cheng developed well. Little Su ChengXun can already swiftly crawl. Little Xun was mostly looked after by Mother Zhou.

Lin Qing He wasn't free. She had to give classes.

Still, he was nurtured well.

When the couple came over, Su Da Lin went to find his beloved two sons, while Zhou Xiao Mei had girls talk with Lin Qing He.

The main thing was that Su Da Lin wants a daughter.

Lin Qing He was speechless. Why discuss this matter with her?

"You have to discuss with brother-in-law yourself." Lin Qing He replied.

"I don't want to give birth, but he really wants it." Zhou Xiao Mei sighed.

Lin Qing He thought for a while, then looked at her and said, "Do you want to hear me tell the truth?"

"Fourth Sister-in-law, please tell me." Zhou Xiao Mei nodded.

The only one who can discuss this with her was her fourth sister-in-law. The others would just let her give birth as soon as they hear it. Why won't she? She only got two.

It was really rare to only give birth to two at this age.

"In fact, objectively speaking, if you have that intention, you can indeed worker harder to birth one more." Lin Qing He stated truthfully.

Since Zhou Xiao Mei came to her for advice, she'll give it.

For women, delivering a child was actually painful. However, the most difficult thing wasn't delivering a child. The biggest hardship was raising a child in the future.

There was Mother Zhou, who will help with the children. So to be honest, this wasn't really a big problem.

Su Da Lin had a stable job and owned a home. Zhou Xiao Mei's income was also acceptable. There was no need to be afraid of being unable to raise children with a dual income.

It was indeed a bit tough now, but life only had so many decades to fly past. Currently, they were all small carrot heads. In the next 20 years, all of them will be young men and big girls. After teaching them well, won't it feel comfortable to see, right?

Don't be afraid if life was tough at the beginning. What one should be afraid of was that the first part was sweet and the second part was bitter. That would be hard to endure.

So Lin Qing He didn't conceal it and dare not to speak out. She frankly expressed that it was indeed possible to have a baby. Of course, it mainly depended on Zhou Xiao Mei herself.

After all, she was just flapping her lips. Those who standing and talking can't hurt their back.

But in fact, if it were Lin Qing He herself, she would be willing to birth one or two more if there was someone to help her raise them even if she knew that it hurts to birth a child.

Zhou Qing Bai deeply longed for a daughter too. If she could give birth, she really wanted to give him one.

Unfortunately, the original owner gave no compromise. She simply ligated herself. What was there to gave birth to.

Zhou Xiao Mei understood after listening.

"I don't know if Mother can handle it?" Zhou Xiao Mei hesitated.

"Go and ask Mother." Lin Qing He said. She wasn't the one bringing up the kid and she couldn't help Mother Zhou decide.

"I'll birth this last one for him. After the birth, I'll get him to ligate!" Zhou Xiao Mei gritted her teeth.

Lin Qing He smiled, but didn't say anything. Birthing three wasn't little. Didn't her family have three sons?

Zhou Xiao Mei went to find Mother Zhou.

"Give birth then. Raising one or two is still raising. You and Da Lin just need to remember to bring back the food and eggs. Cheng Cheng and Xun Xun got strong mouths. They can eat a lot." Mother Zhou responded.

"I don't need Mother to remind me." Zhou Xiao Mei grinned.

Her eldest son and second son were so plump. She knew without asking that her fourth sister-in-law must have fed them a lot of delicious food.

She and Su Da Lin were not stingy either. This time they came back with ten jins of white flour and a basket of eggs. All of them were left on this side.

The other three branches were given a handful of candies. Just a thought.
