Back to the Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise the Cubs Chapter 191 Getting tall, Getting cramps

Chapter 191. Getting tall, Getting cramps

Mother Zhou was aware that she was partial to the Fourth branch. But among the four sons, she didn't go overboard on the bias. Otherwise, how could the others stay put?

Seeing how great the relationship between the brothers was now, it proved that she wasn't too biased.

Second Brother-in-law responded with a wry smile. He left after dropping the money.

Two days later, Zhou Qing Bai went up to buy pesticides and fertilizers on behalf of the team. Then he delivered a cart of bricks and tiles to Second Brother-in-law.

With this cart of bricks and tiles, Second Brother-in-law can set his mind at ease. Even at night, he headed over to the new house to camp on the floor. It was for the fear of sneaky people coming over stealing bricks and tiles.

It was the truth. Bricks and tiles weren't so easy to get at this time. If Zhou Qing Bai didn't have a connection in the bureau that can get an approval letter, how can they obtain this cart of bricks and tiles like this?

It was that scarce. One may not be able to buy it even if they had money.

And even if one buys it, one can't bring back in such a cart.

If it weren't like this, how could there be a housing shortage now?

Second Brother-in-law was able to move out like this was thanks to a ridge. This was borrowed from a clan's uncle for emergency use.

Speaking of this, he had good social skills. If it were his eldest brother who borrows, don't think about it.

Of course, Second Sister also contributed to this.

Who doesn’t know that Second Sister’s fourth brother was a capable person?

Even when he had retired from the force, he was still a prominent figure in the village. Whether it was reporting harvest or buying fertilizer and pesticide on behalf of the production team, he was always present.

So more or less, they were willing to connect.

For example, seeing Zhou Qing Bai delivering so many bricks and tiles this time, everyone's eyes slightly shone.

Don't talk about other people. Just Second Brother-in-law's biased parents also grumbled.

No matter what, Second Brother-in-law and Second Sister's brick house was completed in half a month due to this cart of brick.

A family of seven didn't bother to choose a special day and just moved in without any second thought.

After moving, there were still a lot of missing items. It didn’t matter if they lacked them. Even if they have to cook things in a crock pot once they moved out, it was way better than receiving anger at that side

With this separation, it had the usually honest Second Sister hold a rare hatred.

This included the old grudges. Mistreatment during post-natal confinement and the likes were pulled out to counted.

However, Second Sister won't say it, not even a word. But from now on, she will only have her maternal family. There's no in-law family!

Some women in the village envied her very much, but they didn't say anything sour. They all gave her well-wishing, that her hardships were over and happiness was coming in the future.

Some old people in the village watched Second Sister's family move out and the elderly parents chose the eldest son. They shook their head.

They don't protect the filial second son and second daughter-in-law but instead stood with the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, who were selfish.

There was no problem since they could still move. But once, they can't work in the future, do they really think that couple would wait upon them?

They can only sweep the snow in front of the door, so they couldn't bother to say too much.

Second Sister was very polite. She borrowed a basket of eggs from the village and brought it over. As a symbol of grat.i.tude to her maternal family's siblings, each family got two jins.

The maternal brothers didn't matter. However, she must express it toward the sisters-in-law.

There was affection from growing up with the brothers, so they won't mind so much. But the sisters-in-law were different. There was a barrier, so naturally, she had to show courtesy.

As for the money owed, she'll pay it back slowly. She'll somehow be able to pay it off.

Even Second Sister-in-law was all smiles and said that Second Sister was too polite.

Lin Qing He didn't say have much to say. She just grabbed half a jin of pork sc.r.a.p for Second Sister.

Second Sister couldn't refuse and was resigned to taking it back.

She had a mixture of emotions on the way back. Fourth's wife didn't really place any importance on her before. But now that old Fourth was back, she was more and more like a wife. This New Year she got to bring her children to meet them.

Lin Qing He didn't think so much. It was Zhou Qing Bai's sister, she had to display some politeness.

She was in the middle of making the dough. Today, they were eating pancakes. The soup was bone soup. She had simmered the bones for a long time now. The stewed soup was milky and creamy. Really too fragrant. Sprinkle it a handful of green onions and it'll taste perfect.

This pancake was just right with this soup.

She went to the county city yesterday to buy three more baskets of eggs. Today, Second Sister brought approximately two jins as well. So she fried sunny-side-up for everybody.

A crispy, yellow, and savory sunny-side-up. Even little Su Cheng was satisfied with it.

Not to mention her family's three, who was used to good stuff.

"Mother, I have a little cramp in my legs when sleeping recently." Da Wa mentioned while eating.

Lin Qing He was shocked: "Is can't be calcium deficiency, right?"

"What?"

Father Zhou and Mother Zhou were clueless.

Zhou Qing Bai looked at his wife. Some of the words came from decades later, which were never heard of now.

For example, this leg cramp, what does it have to do with this calcium deficiency?

"It means, you have entered the peak period of height development. The bones are lengthening. However, your body doesn't have enough nourishment, so cramps will appear at night." Lin Qing He explained, then added: "This is what I saw in the book. ."

When Father Zhou and Mother Zhou heard it from the book, they became serious.

"What can be done?" Father Zhou asked.

He was very concerned about his eldest grandson.What's more, this elder was eagerly looking forward to his grandson being able to enter a university and bring glory to his ancestor.

"Our family eats so well. Why don't they have enough nutrition?" Mother Zhou said.

"The food at home is very good. But just this alone isn't enough for the kids' development. Starting tomorrow, I will order two more bottles of milk. Da Wa, you drink more." Lin Qing He decided.

"Will it be too much?" Mother Zhou hesitated.

"Mother, the kids only have these few years in his life to grow. After these few years, he won't be able to grow taller even if you want to replenish it in the future." Lin Qing He said.

In fact, a child of this age didn't need too much supplementation. On top of the daily meals, just drink a little more milk. This was the most basic in modern times.

It's not really supplementing.

"Listen to Fourth's wife." Father Zhou nodded.

Lin Qing He smiled and looked at Da Wa and said, "You have to do well and bring back a college admittance. You two younger ones as well. When the time comes, pay back all the money Mother splashed on you."

Speaking of this, Mother Zhou laughed and said: "That's an exaggeration! It's great that a community can produce one college student."

"Mother, I will enter the first year of junior high school next semester. I heard that there is a compet.i.tion in the first year of junior high school. Would there be scholarships?" Da Wa asked.

Currently, he was in the second semester of the fifth grade. At the moment, there was no such thing as the sixth grade. He'll enter first year the next semester.
