Chapter 224 Plunder a rabbit nest

"Your salary is quite a sum. If you retire, you will have 20 yuan less income every month. Even though brother-in-law’s salary of forty yuan isn’t low, but who knows what would happen in the future." Lin Qing He honestly gave her opinion.

These days, there were a lot of people wanting to snatch their jobs once on the market. However, if they want to find a job, it was as difficult as reaching heaven.

Even though it was already ’75, there were still two or three years until the restriction loosens up. It was still a long while.

Don’t underestimate Zhou Xiao Mei’s monthly salary of 20 yuan. Even if Su Da Lin can’t continue working, there was no need to worry at home with this salary.

An ordinary family with a 20 yuan income a month can survive.

From the perspective of future generations, it was best for a family to have three or more sources of income.

This way, there will be no anxiety. For now, Zhou Xiao Mei’s family had two sources, which was also considered great.

At least they weren’t completely relying on one source. There will be fewer worries and happiness will increase. Family conflicts will also naturally decrease.

Therefore, Lin Qing He doesn’t support resignation.

"I don’t want to resign either." Zhou Xiao Mei nodded. But looking at her sleeping daughter, she sighed softly: "However, Da Lin treasures this daughter like the root of his life. He dotes with no boundary. He is reluctant to leave her at old home like he did with her two brothers."

"His aunt isn’t young anymore. Have she considered retiring?" Lin Qing He pondered for a while and asked.

Su Da Lin’s uncle and aunt both have jobs.

"She has. She plans to give her position to her youngest daughter, but it hasn’t been decided yet." Zhou Xiao Mei replied.

"Their side isn’t far from here. If she is willing to retire, just go and ask. Change the payment from Mother to her." Lin Qing He said.

Zhou Xiao Mei said, "Will Mother object?"

"What is there to object? Cheng Cheng and Xun Xun are both older now. They can play by themselves without the mother watching. Since the niece doesn’t need her to raise, she had no objection to not getting paid." Lin Qing He explained.

Zhou Xiao Mei nodded, but this matter still needed to be discussed with Su Da Lin.

Lin Qinghe brought Da Wa out to buy some school supplies and gave him a yuan of allowance.

Have to mention, only Lin Qing He, this kind of mother would be willing to take out the pocket money of one yuan.

The phrase ’raise sons in frugality and raise daughters in luxury’ doesn’t mean be strict in the cost of sons’ treatment. But rather, to exercise his hardworking spirit and endurance.

Pocket money was still given.

"At the end of the month, go back and help with the autumn harvest. Will there be any holidays?" Lin Qing He asked.

"Yes, there’s seven days break." Da Wa nodded.

Lin Qing He had no problem. She said goodbye to Da Wa and then came to the black market to sell off all the pork leftovers she had accumulated. Afterward, she returned home.

As for Da Wa, he saved this one yuan. He wants to save money to buy a basketball, which was very expensive.

He knew the pressure at home. There were so many of them to raise. Even when he came to the city, he still had two bottles of milk a day, all of which were bought with his mother’s salary.

Lin Qing He really didn’t know that Da Wa wanted to buy a basketball. When she got home, she told Father Zhou and Mother Zhou how well Da Wa was in the city.

She also raised the matter with Mother Zhou. Maybe in the future, the little niece will be minded by her grandaunt. At that time, the money will be given to her grandaunt.

"Give it then. Cheng Cheng and his brother are so big now. Just let them remember to bring the living expenses." Mother Zhou didn’t mind this.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

In the past, the reason why she took the money from her daughter was to save it for the grandsons’ marriage.

Now that eldest grandson had so much prospect, it was fine that the youngest daughter won’t give money. However, the grandsons’ living expenses still have to be brought over.

Even though they were relatives and the children were still young, the account still must be settled clearly. That’s how they can stay as relatives.

There was no need to worry about this. Su Da Lin and Zhou Xiao Mei knew what to do.

Lin Qing He chatted with Mother Zhou about how plump her sister-in-law was now. Mother Zhou jollily scolded: "Really this girl. Don’t know how to save money at all. To eat till that appearance, how much salary is enough for her?"

Though she said, Mother Zhou was extremely satisfied.

In this age, being fat was beautiful. Her youngest girl was able to be raised like that by her son-in-law meant her life was blessed.

How many girls in the village can marry into the city?

And the most important thing was that if one from the village marries into the city, it was considered as social status increase by marriage. One gets looked down upon by their in-laws. What’s more, they have to do all the chores and have to supplement by getting food during the summer and autumn harvest.

To find a spouse with criteria like her daughter’s, it was quite scarce.

Lin Qing He knew that her mother-in-law’s mouth differed from her body language and didn’t say much.

The autumn harvest started at the end of September. Da Lin’s aunt was willing to retire and pass the job to her youngest daughter who was about to marry.

Although the city folk appeared respectful, they still need to have a job. If they were unemployed, they can’t find a decent spouse.

So when it was almost time to get married, they’ll have it easier when they got a job arranged for them.

Su Da Lin went to talk with his aunt about minding the children.

Su Da Lin regarded her as his family. He too was brought up by his uncle and his aunt.

She agreed. After all, she watched them when the couple was at work. They’ll be taken back after work,. It wasn’t too difficult.

Su Da Lin wants to give money, but she was set on not accepting.

So Su Da Lin brought over a piece of meat from time to time. He knew how to handle human relations.

Da Wa mentioned this when he got back on his vacation. It stopped at listening because the autumn harvest had already begun at this time. They were occupied.

All grains were mature one after another. They all have to be harvested quickly and be placed into the granary.

The first seven days were the busiest, so the county’s high schools gave them a break. Many students in the county were from the countryside, so these arrangements were made. However, it wasn’t long, only seven days.

After seven days, they got to return to school.

Da Wa helped for seven days. When he went back to the city, he brought a rabbit with him.

His father caught it. During this summer, he didn’t get any. Zhou Qing Bai caught one on the first day of the autumn harvest this year.

On the day when Da Wa was going back, Zhou Qing Bai caught two of them.

These rabbits were really chubby, who knows how much grains it sneakily nibbled. Da Wa carried the rabbit and let Su Da Lin decide its fate. Su Da Lin gave half of it to his uncle, and the rest was braised as normal.

In the middle of the autumn harvest, Zhou Qing Bai plundered into a rabbit nest.

The few little ones were raised. As for the adult rabbit, it ran away.

In the eyes of this era’s people, rabbits were terrible creatures that ruin crops. Not only do they eat crops, but they also dig and destroy the land. They were on the same level as voles.

However, the few bunnies were caught and raised at home. San Wa, Su Cheng, and Su Xun were delighted

After all, they were so small. They were truly cute.

Since they were rabbits and only got a few, it was no problem to raise them. It wasn’t creating assets, so they didn’t need to be on the edge.
