Chapter 307: Dispirited
They were all her own nieces. If they were good, who would stop them?
Even if Zhou Er Ni didn’t go, it still wasn’t Zhou Liu No’s turn. There were also San Ni and Si Ni below.
Not only were they all older than her, they all know how to work.
With how Zhou Liu Ni was, what can she do? Her fourth uncle and fourth aunt gone out to develop and didn’t have it easy. She had to help when she went over. There was no reason to go over and make more busyness.
Lin Qing He said: “Second Sister-in-law seems to be unhappy.”
“Then be unhappy. What else can be done?” Third Sister-in-law replied.
How can she not know her own daughter? She shouldn’t be gaining an inch, demanding a foot. And also be displeased. Did she forget who introduced Xia Xia to the furniture factory?
Third Sister-in-law did not come back. The three sisters-in-law happily chatted away.
Eldest Sister-in-law brought up the selling matter: “Last time I carried two chickens. I waited for a long time but couldn’t sell them.”
Lin Qing He was surprised: “How is this possible? My brother always collects a lot of money. Didn’t you see he had sold it all out?”
Eldest Sister-in-law pursed her lips: “I don’t know what’s going on either.”
She didn’t realize that she was too timid. She didn’t even ask anyone. She was dressed liked normal and brought chickens to the hospital entrance. In the strangers’ minds, they felt she was carrying chickens to see relatives.
Who would step forward to ask?
She got to yell out a few sentences herself.
Also, don’t be so timid.
“But since my third brother is collecting chickens, it’s not bad to sell them to him. Although he makes some money, it saves time and you can work in the field. I heard Mother said that you have taken on a lot of lands this year.” Lin Qing He said.
“This year we have taken on a lot. We were thinking if we could have a year of good harvest.” Touching on this, Eldest Sister-in-law smiled.
“This policy is very rare. We should work hard, no?” Third Sister-in-law also spoke.
The household produces it and pays a sufficient amount, and the rest is their own. Who wouldn’t be motivated? All were working hard to prepare for a big project next year.
Lin Qing He chatted happily with her two sisters-in-law at this side.
Zhou Qing Bai had a lively chat with his three brothers next door.
Between men, they didn’t think as much as women. What’s more, they were brothers with the same father and mother. The relationship was still very good. For so many years, old Zhou Family’s brothers hadn’t been in conflict.
Hearing Zhou Qing Bai says that the business in the capital was very good, Eldest Brother was relieved and said: “It’s great that business is going well. I noticed Father and Mother were worried about your side this year.”
“But how much money can you make from selling dumplings? It’s better to consider doing something else.” Second Brother urged.
“Do others is just as hard. It’s not easy in the capital. Making a bit is still something.” Third Brother spoke conservatively.
“Can sustain our lifestyle.” Zhou Qing Bai replied: “Next summer, I plan to take Father and Mother to the capital.”
He notified his three brothers of this matter.
“Take Father and Mother to the capital?” Eldest Brother was shocked: “Can this be done?”
“That’s right. You have to rely on your wife to support the family over there. We can take care of Father and Mother here.” Second Brother looked baffled. Anyway, he didn’t think a dumpling shop can make much money.
“Father and Mother are fine here at home. You can you rest assured.” Third Brother was also perplexed.
Zhou Qing Bai said: “My shop’s business is okay, so I have no problem bringing Father and Mother over.”
“Accommodation is a problem when Father and Mother go over. They aren’t used to climbing stairs. Those apartment buildings are also very crowded.” Third Brother pointed out.
“I found a house with a garden. The landlord couldn’t rent it out. When Father ad Mother come over, I plan to rent it. Accommodation for them won’t be a problem.” Zhou Qing Bai said: “This is also me and my wife’s decision.”
So the three brothers got a grasp of the circumstance. The dumpling shop’s business seems to be OK. If not, how can the two elderly go there to increase the burden?
“How much money can a bowl of dumplings make?” Second Brother asked straightforwardly.
“No one knows how much money I make. A few pennies for mine.” Zhou Qing Bai said.
He had sampled his competitors. He estimated that their bowl’s margin was about eighty percent because whether it was fillings or dumpling wrappers, they weren’t as good as his.
“How many bowls can you sell in a day?” Second Brother asked curiously.
Eldest Brother and Third Brother were both curious too.
If it were before, Zhou Qing Bai would definitely not mind saying it to his brothers. However, Lin Qing He had taught him well.
Do not worry if there is not enough wealth to go around, only worry if it is not evenly distributed among people. Did he still want to be brothers? If he want to, don’t make the gap so big, otherwise, can’t stay as brothers.
Zhou Qing Bai felt it makes sense.
Why else, would they say the shop and house were rented and not that he and his wife bought them. Sometimes white lies were needed.
“Sometimes more, sometimes less. Can’t give an accurate amount. There are at least thirty or forty yuan a month.” Zhou Qing Bai responded.
This income wasn’t too high, but it wasn’t low either. The brothers believed it. After all, old Fourth wants to bring the two elders over, so he should be able to afford it. If not, wouldn’t it be bringing burden over? At that time, both sides will have to endure hardship.
Since he had this income in one month, then there was no problem.
In the eyes of these brothers, who were frugal, the income of thirty or forty yuan a month was indeed a lot.
“Three eldest brothers, work hard this year.” Zhou Qing Bai said: “The futures days will be better and better.”
The brothers ate salted peanuts accompanied by the good Moutai wine. It was really refreshing.
They came over around seven o’clock and talked until after eleven o’clock before they broke up.
When Second Brother got back, Second Sister-in-law hadn’t slept yet.
Second Brother thought she was asleep, so he was startled and said, “Still not asleep at this time?”
“My heart feels dispirited,” Second Sister-in-law, who was waiting for him to come back, responded.
“Now the policy is getting better and better. We can raise our own chickens. Same with the ducks. There’s no restriction on pig raising. There’s also household production. Life is definitely getting better and better. “” Second Brother lied down and said comfortably.
In his own personal words, he was really satisfied with the current life. Old fourth had revealed to them. They can rest assured and boldly take action. As long as they didn’t break the law, there will be no problems.
It can be said that the future was bright.
“I’m not talking about those.” Second Sister-in-law replied.
“Then what are you on about.” Second Brother wanted to sleep, still, he said.
“Say, does fourth branch look down on our second branch?” Second Sister-in-law voiced out. She thought about it all night tonight. The more she thought about it, the more her heart became more and more upset.
She couldn’t sleep on such a black night and just waited for her man to come back and talk.
