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

Chapter 219. Hundred jin of meat

After lunch at Su Da Lin and Zhou Xiao Mei, Lin Qing He took the children to the movie.

Seeing that Su Cheng and little Su Xun leave so happily and without reluctance, Su Da Lin commented, "They are really close to their fourth aunt."

"It's a must, Fourth Sister-in-law treats them well." Zhou Xiao Mei responded.

Su Da Lin smiled and said: "Fourth Sister-in-law is really nice. I can see she doesn't treat the boys differently from Da Wa and the others."

"That's the kind of person my fourth sister-in-law is. Either she won't help to watching over or agree and take care of them. She won't give preferential treatment." Zhou Xiao Mei said.

Su Da Lin grinned. He knew in his heart. If not, how could he be willing to let his nephew, Da Wa to come to live in their home?

Naturally, he wanted to repay back a bit.

That's how it works between relatives. Not blindly asking or giving. It was always mutual.

Lin Qing He didn't care about this. She took the children around to happily play for a day. They watched movies, ate candied haws, and then bought a watermelon home.

Mother Zhou knew that she took the children to see her little daughter today, and asked, "How is Xiao Mei?"

"Very good. She seems to be spoiled by brother-in-law like a little girl. This time I went over, she told me coquettishly that this one is the last one. Not going to birth anymore afterward." Lin Qing He said.

Mother Zhou smilingly chided: "This stinky girl. Doesn't know where she learned this mindset. Better to give birth to a few more while she is young. In the future, she won't have a chance to. What's more, it's not like she can't afford it.

Su Da Lin's salary had increased a little now. From 30 yuan a month to almost 40 yuan.

Zhou Xiao Mei also had a raise. A salary of almost 20 yuan.

After all, it was a small worker, won't be good as Su Da Lin.

But once the couple's salary was added up, it was sixty yuan.

In this era, if a family can have this income every month, it was definitely an exceptional living condition.

Those in the countryside can afford to raise so many, not to mention those with such a high income.

"After giving birth, there's three. It's not little. If Xiao Mei really doesn't plan to give birth, don't criticize her, Mother," Lin Qing He said.

"Three isn't a small number, but it's also not too many. Da Lin has inherited employment, it's better to desire more." Mother Zhou responded.

"Now there are two sons and if this one is a girl, it will sons and daughters complete. If it's a son, then that's three sons. Mother, leave them alone and let the couple discuss it." Lin Qing He clarified.

"En." Mother Zhou nodded. She didn't plan to intervene: "I killed and sorted all those ricefield eels."

"Then I will stew it with pickled veg." Lin Qing He nodded.

She started cooking. Ricefield eel stewed with pickled veg, tomato and egg drop soup, fried cabbage, and a pork belly with cowpea.

When Zhou Qing Bai and the others came back, the family began dinner.

Lin Qing He came over to look for Sister Mei the next day. After Sister Mei led her into the house as she whispered in a hushed tone: "Sister, how is the atmosphere in the city these days?"

"It's okay now. The chaos earlier this year was fierce, but now it appears extremely calm." Lin Qing He responded. Seeing Sister Mei like this, she had also lowered her voice: "Sister Mei, is something up in the slaughterhouse?"

"There is. Just don't know if you can take, Sister." Sister Mei whispered.

"How much?" Lin Qing He looked at her and asked.

"Forty jins. All first- and second-class good meat." Sister Mei watched her and answered.

"So much?" Lin Qing He said in amazement, "Don't tell me it's dead pig's meat." Even though it's dead pig's meat, it doesn't matter at all during this time. Everyone would be snatching to buy those dead piglets.

However, Lin Qing He couldn't accept it. She didn't want to do that unscrupulous business. As someone from the future, this was her bottom line.

"No. It's excessive raising." Sister Mei whispered.

Then she explained with a few sentences about the slaughter house's matter.

There were pigs raised in the slaughterhouse, but there was a limit on the number. If one wants to raise more, no one will know.

After all, they got plentiful there. What's more, those people who come and go there were the same group. It won't get out.

Of course, they only tried to do it this year. They didn't dare to do it before.

They never thought it'll be so strict this year. It scared everyone for a while. Fortunately, the slaughterhouse didn't get affected.

After Lin Qing He found out about this, she scheduled the time with Sister Mei. She returned later with Zhou Qing Bai around one o'clock in the morning.

At this time, it goes to show the benefit of letting Zhou Qing Bai know her secret.

Otherwise, she would have missed out on so much pork. Since she owned a space, she requested a lot more from Sister Mei.

Almost a hundred jins of pork.

This amount was within Lin Qin He's limit. Sister Mei decided to give it to her because she had known her for so many years.

After returning home, Lin Qing He told Zhou Qing Bai about it.

Zhou Qing Bai had a helpless expression but didn't say anything. At 1 o'clock that night, the couple went over.

One hundred jins of meat wasn't a small number. Sister Mei used two poly woven bags to store them and reported the weight of various meats. Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai left immediately after they received the goods.

"Be careful," Sister Mei whispered.

"I'm going to your place tomorrow morning and sit around." Lin Qing He replied. Then she walked away with Zhou Qing Bai. Once they observed no one was around, they immediately withdrew the pork into the space.

"It's all good meat. I can't bear to sell it anywhere. Let's keep it for ourselves." Lin Qing He opened the bag with her mind in the space, checked it, and said.

Fatty meat. Pork belly. Pork loin. And of course ribs and big bones.

"Then keep it for ourselves." Zhou Qing Bai nodded.

Lin Qing He grinned. Then she won't hold back. All the meat she brought over had been eaten, so it was fine to leave these meats in the space for themselves.

For hundreds of jins of meat, the purchase price from Sister Mei was less than one hundred yuan, so she was naturally willing to keep it for themselves.

As for what she sold, she usually bought some leftover pork. It was still hot item in the black market. What's more, it was also very profitable.

The day before yesterday, she counted the family savings. It was already more than 5,000. In this era, it counts as half a ten-thousand yuan household. Must mention, Lin Qing He got a sense of accomplishment.

When the couple got home, they washed up and slept without disturbing the children next door.

After making breakfast the next day, Lin Qing He came to Sister Mei’s house to settle the payment. The meat cost a total of almost ninety yuan, so she gave ninety.

Sister Mei was delighted, and then reconfirmed: "Is the next customer no problem?"

"No problem, don't worry." Lin Qing He, who had no next customer, nodded.

"That's good." Sister Mei smilingly nodded.

Lin Qing He didn't stay too long. After saying goodbye to Sister Mei, she went home and started to stew the bone soup for the noodles for lunch.
