Chapter 546: Want to Go to Work (2)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

At this moment, at Fourth Uncle Lin’s house.

Fourth Uncle Lin and his wife brought the two children back with them. They collected two big baskets and two small baskets of cabbage. They were resting under the eaves.

Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife went in and scooped a ladle of water from the water tank. She drank a big mouthful first.

Then, he went out and handed the water ladle to Fourth Uncle Lin.

Fourth Uncle Lin wiped his sweat and gulped down more than half of the water.

Then, he gave the water ladle to the older child.

The child took the water ladle and drank it in big mouthfuls.

Fourth Uncle Lin’s face, which was slightly red from the sun, smiled.

Then, he looked at his wife.

“You don’t have to go out later. I’ll take the basket and take back the remaining cabbage.” He said.

Ever since the Liu family’s workshop began to harvest cabbages, the lives of every family in the village had become better.

This year, the cabbages were growing well. Most of the cabbages weighed two to three catties, and some were even more than four catties.

1 wen per 500 grams, so one cabbage could cost up to 2-3 wen.

If this was in the past, he would not even dare to think about it.

Fourth Uncle Lin thought that after he harvested all the things in the field this year, he would have to turn all the land into cabbages.

According to this year’s harvest, growing cabbage was actually more cost-effective than growing grains.

If he sold the cabbage, he could exchange it for money. With money, he could go to the town to buy food. With more money, he would have more money left in his hands.

“Mmm.” Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife smiled and replied.

Then, a hint of hesitation flashed across her face.

Seeing this, Fourth Uncle Lin looked at his wife in confusion.

“What’s wrong?” He asked.

Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife hesitated.

“There’s something we need to discuss.” As if she had made up her mind,

Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife suddenly stepped forward and sat down next to Fourth Uncle Lin.

Seeing this, Fourth Uncle Lin’s expression turned grave.

“Tell me.” He said.

“I thought that there was not much cabbage left in our field… Also, our family doesn’t have much land. You and the two children can take care of it.”

Fourth Uncle Lin’s expression changed, and he suddenly felt a little flustered.

“What do you mean?”

Fourth Uncle Lin paused. Then, she thought of something and laughed.

“Aiya, what are you thinking? I want to discuss with you about letting me work in Ms. Lin’s workshop.”

As she spoke, she pushed Fourth Uncle Lin’s shoulder like a spoiled child.

Seeing Fourth Uncle Lin’s relieved expression, she frowned again.

Before her husband could speak, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife said, “it’s not a problem for you to take care of the two children.”

“If I work in the Liu family’s workshop, I can earn at least 50 wen a day.”

“Moreover, the workshop is busy now and needs to be processed frequently. The pay is considered high, at least 20 wen per hour.” At this point, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife’s eyes lit up.

“Tell me, where can a country bumpkin like us find such a good job? The pay is high and it’s close to home.”

Seeing that Fourth Uncle Lin was about to speak, his wife said, “we can’t continue on like this with our family’s situation.”

“Previously, when you brought back 50 taels of silver, we still had some money. But now, ithas been returned.”

Fourth Uncle Lin’s expression turned anxious.

Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife patted his shoulder comfortingly. “I’m not blaming you for this.”

“On the contrary, I feel more at ease.”

“Although you didn’t participate much in the matter of the jade pendant, strictly speaking, you can be considered as mother’s accomplice. Although I was happy that you got the money previously, I was worried.”

“You’re the head of the family. If something happens to you, how are we going to live?” As she said that, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife actually teared up.

Fourth Uncle Lin’s heart trembled and he quickly hugged his wife.

At this moment, his heart was filled with gratitude.

His wife really cared about him.

Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife wiped her eyes and pushed Fourth Uncle Lin away.

“I’m not counting on you to make a lot of money. Let’s just live our lives in a down-to-earth manner.”

“I’ve been married to you for so long, so I’ve finally seen it clearly. Father and mother are too biased and don’t care about us at all.”

“It’s right for us to ignore them now. Otherwise, there would be no end to it and our life would not be peaceful..”
