Back to the Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise the Cubs-Novel2

Chapter 297. Third Youngest Brother improving

"Waiting until New Year is too long. Grandmother, have you thought of going to see my fourth uncle and fourth aunt? A letter of introduction is no longer needed, you can go anywhere. Nobody would intervene." Said Zhou Liu Ni.

"What are you talking about? What kind of place is the capital? Is it somewhere you can go just because you want to?" Father Zhou shot a glance at his granddaughter.

"Well, isn’t it because I see my grandmother is worried? If she wants to go, I can take her there," responded Zhou Liu Ni

"What are you going for? You can’t even speak and don’t know where to go once there." Father Zhou objected.

At this, Zhou Liu Ni said: "What’s so difficult? Once there, just find the police. They’ll take us to Bei University and let the intercom call Fourth Auntie. That should do, right?"

"Nice try." Father Zhou said: "Eat your food."

"Grandma, I’m already this big, I can do any chores. Since Fourth Uncle opened a shop, I want to go over and help with the dishes." Zhou Liu Ni persisted.

Father Zhou remained silent. While Mother Zhou was persuaded. "How could your mother agree?"

"Why wouldn’t she? My fourth uncle and fourth aunt aren’t someone else. What’s wrong with me going over to help?" Zhou Liu Ni immediately continued on when seeing her grandmother was persuaded.

"Wait until your fourth uncle and fourth aunt come back first before we talk." Mother Zhou said.

Zhou Liu Ni was ecstatic. After eating, she wiped her mouth and ran away without helping her grandparents with the cleaning up.

Father Zhou and Mother Zhou didn’t quibble about it.

The old couple had a lot of matters on their hand now. Father Zhou raised. This year was ten ducks. By this time, they will start laying eggs.

Mother Zhou raised more than a dozen chickens and said, "It’s because of having no time to come back. If not, I won’t need to sell these eggs. They can take it with them to eat."

"Tomorrow Da Wa’s uncle (3rd Lin) will come over to collect the eggs. Store them away properly." Father Zhou said.

"It’s all set. It won’t fall." Mother Zhou nodded.

Third Brother Lin knew how to interact. Knowing that his elder sister’s parents-in-law were raising chickens and ducks, he came here to help take them to the city to sell them.

Father Zhou and Mother Zhou liked Third Brother Lin very much.

Originally, Third Brother Lin only sold his own family’s. But now it was expanding. Basically the next day he will bring the neighbors’ batch of eggs or live chickens to the city to sell.

On Mother Zhou’s side, he would come here every few days. As for other people, Third Brother Lin, would charge a little fee.

For example, for three jins of eggs, Third Brother Lin would have to earn an egg worth of fee, which was naturally not much. So everyone was willing to sell him and bring the money back. After all, it saved a lot of effort.

Third Brother Lin now went to the county town every other day. Every time he went to the county town, he would attach a pole on his bicycle. There were two baskets on both sides of the pole. It was filled with eggs, which were cushioned with rice bran.

If there were live chickens or ducks, he would tie them to the poles. This also made some money.

In a month, he can earn nearly 20 yuan more to supplement the family. He can also sell his own eggs or live chickens. So altogether, he can earn about 30 yuan a month.

Third Sister-in-law Lin couldn’t be any more pleased.

Thirty yuan was a sum of money. Even if people’s wages have increased in recent years, thirty yuan was a good standard.

But even so, Third Brother Lin didn’t dare to lose his work in the field. He would go to the field every second day. So life was pretty good.

Because Third Brother Lin liked to listen to his sister.

His family sister told him to check around the city more. He did. Afterward, he noticed there were really many hawkers in the city and many things could be sold.

For example, every time he goes, he will let his wife give him a small bag of bean sprouts to bring over. These just relied on water to grow and they were also very popular.

Third Brother Lin was currently doing this. He was thinking about waiting for his sister to come back during the New Year before asking his sister.

Because he found that doing business was much better than doing farm work.

After all, he was just working from home now and can earn 30 yuan a month. He hadn’t gone out all yet.

After all, there was a lot of ruckuses before. He was a little worried about whether it would return afterward.

Even if it was bean sprouts, he would sell a little every time. He didn’t dare to sell too much.

Because Third Brother Lin listened to his elder sister, he tasted some sweetness. While the three Zhou brothers were much more conservative in this matter.

There had no intention in that respect at all.

At least so far, there wasn’t any action. While Eldest Sister-in-law tried to bringing two chickens to the hospital to sell. But because of her cowering posture and worried mindset, she was very unlucky and wasn’t able to sell them.

Seeing that she bring two chickens back, the other two knew without asking.

So, they didn’t think about it.

The next day Third Brother Lin came with two baskets. There were also two chickens tied to the poles on the bike. He came to collect Mother Zhou’s eggs.

Third Brother Lin came over in the morning and came back almost two o’clock in the afternoon.

After giving the money to Mother Zhou, Mother Zhou asked him to drink the sweetened water first.

Third Brother Lin didn’t be reserved with her. After drinking, he said, "Auntie, I’ll go back first."

"Take care." Mother Zhou nodded and smiled.

Third Brother Lin rode his bicycle back.

When Father Zhou came back from herding the ducks, Mother Zhou said: "Da Wa’s uncle is too good."

Not only was he polite, but he also didn’t pinch any of her pennies.

Father Zhou said: "Before when you found out the bicycle was given to him, you were mad."

Mother Zhou felt her face was lost after being said so, and replied, "I didn’t say anything."

When she heard about it, she was really reluctant, even when they already have one. After all, she still got three more sons.

A bike was a major item. How can one mind one more?

Later, she heard from Eldest’s wife. He gave fifty yuan for it. Not gain for nothing.

She was also thankful that she didn’t nag Fourth’s wife. Otherwise, it’ll be a slap in the face.

Now it didn’t seem bad to transfer the bicycle to him.

Father Zhou didn’t continue on. He changed the topic: "How much did it sell for today?"

A jin of eggs was three dimes or so. Duck eggs were a little more expensive. Today, they made almost one and a half yuans. Mother Zhou was very satisfied.

Since the two of them got sons to support them, these can be saved. As the saying goes, with money in hand, they don’t need to panic. It was the same for everyone.

Mother Zhou had saved a little this year.

She was thinking, if youngest son’s shop didn’t make money, she would send the money she saved. After all, the expense in the capital was very high. The school supplies for grandchildren also consume money.

Even if Fourth’s wife’s salary was high, it may not be enough to spend. She and her husband were still mobile. They can’t the three grandsons starve, right? action

So Mother Zhou was like a hamster, working hard to save money.
