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

Chapter 186. Red date and tremella soup

It took San Wa two days to recover from this illness.

The little guy didn’t have much energy for the past two days. Fortunately, Lin Qing He took good care of him with the help of the prepared medicine for children she kept in the space. So it was just a surprise without danger.

A child’s fever cannot be underestimated. Even a grown adult can burn up silly, let alone such a small child.

When the body recovered, San Wa couldn’t sit still anymore. He ran out and jumped around.

Lin Qing He didn’t restrain him either.

A few days ago, the little guy always thought that his mother didn’t care for him and didn’t love him. But after having a fever, he finally felt how much his mother loved him.

She can make whatever he wanted to eat. Also, she kept him in their kang for sleep at night and tell him stories. It was super.

San Wa, who enjoyed the two days of motherly love, had recovered back to normal- lively and energetic.

These days passed and it was Laba day.

Lin Qing He got up early to cook Laba congee.

Zhou Qing Bai said: "Later, come with me to visit my comrade-in-arms?"

It had been snowing for the past few days. Finally, today was a rare chance of a clear day.

"Okay." Lin Qing He knew that he had always wanted to introduce her to his comrade-in-arms. What’s more, a comrade within the police department was also a very solid network.

So the couple headed out. They had brought along San Wa. Neither Da Wa nor Er Wa joined them.

San Wa, the little bear, can feel that his parents loved him again. He was overjoyed.

"Don’t grin so wide. The cold wind will fill your stomach, and then you will have diarrhea." Lin Qing He said.

"Mother, buy me candied haws later." San Wa began to make requests.

"Buy two sticks for you brothers. Wait until we go back, then you can eat with your brothers." Lin Qinghe stated.

"Ok." San Wa nodded.

Da Wa and Er Wa didn’t mind that he was able to tag along while they couldn’t. They both knew that San Wa was sick during the past two days and became listless. There was nothing wrong with taking him out for a trip.

When they came to the county city, the couple visited the security bureau with San Wa in hand.

There was no need to bring special gifts in the countryside. Lin Qing He brought a jar of chili sauce.

A jar of chili sauce weighed about a jin. It was truly delicious. Zhou Qing Bai, the spicy lover, enjoyed it extremely.

His comrade-in-arms’ taste was similar to him. As expected, he liked it too.

After sitting in the bureau for more than an hour, Zhou Qing Bai and Lin Qing He departed with San Wa. His comrade-in-arms personally sent them out and also urged them to come and visit more when free in the future.

Zhou Qing Bai agreed. Then he brought his wife to the supply and demand cooperative to buy the things that the house needs to buy.

Lin Qing He asked Zhou Qing Bai to enter the supply and demand cooperative first. She was going to the black market. Now she had confessed to Zhou Qing Bai, Zhou Qing Bai really didn’t have to follow. Even the best dog in the camp can forget about finding evidence on his wife.

It was no wonder that she dared to promise him before that if someone found out once, then she would wash her hands clean.

With this thing called space, who can find out?

Zhou Qing Bai shook his head helplessly.

On Lin Qing He’s side, she got rid of the leftovers she had. She bought two baskets of eggs from the black market and carried an approximate jin out. Then she took it over to Shen Yu.

Shen Yu gave birth to a girl.

Earlier on, when she went to the bureau with Zhou Qing Bai, she bumped into Chen Jie, Shen Yu’s man. Chen Jie had informed them.

If she didn’t know, she didn’t know. Now she knew, then she had to bring something over. That’s because, with Shen Yu at the supply and demand cooperative, she can buy many things that others can’t buy.

Knowing that she was in post-natal confinement, bringing some eggs over can be considered a thoughtful gesture.

Sure enough, Shen Yu was delighted as soon as she arrived: "Sister, it’s enough to just come and see me. Why did you bring me so many eggs? Take them back and give them to my nephews (Da Wa & co.)."

"I brought them for you, so keep it." Lin Qing He said with a smile. Then she looked at the girl again and said: "If Da Wa’s father see this, he will be extremely envious. He always wanted a girl."

Shen Yu pursed her lips in laughter. Truth to be told, she and her man didn’t have any biased toward boys over girls, so there was nothing wrong with having this daughter.

While it was her mother-in-law who remarked a bit. But that was just talking and more or less, they don’t live together.

"The diapers don’t dry easily in the cold weather. Is there enough coal at home? I know someone. If there isn’t enough, I can give you an address. You can ask Chen Jie to go over and get some." Lin Qing He said.

"Sister, you are so thoughtful. Chen Jie got some back, it’s enough." Shen Yu smiled.

"That’s good." Lin Qing He nodded, and then reminded her to drink more fish soup. As for the rest, she had nothing to say. She left the eggs and returned.

"Mother, where have you been? Father and I have been waiting for you for a long time." San Wa said.

"I went to Shen Yu’s place to sit down." Lin Qing He explained to Zhou Qing Bai.

Zhou Qing Bai nodded. He knew about it too. He had just heard Chen Jie talk about his wife giving birth. Some common courtesy needed to be done.

Lin Qing He noticed that the father and son hadn’t bought anything yet, so she came to the counter and checked it by herself. Once asked, she found that tremella had actually arrived this year!?

This was a good hydrating product.

Lin Qing He didn’t hesitate at all and instantly bought half a jin. Then got two stick of candied haws. After looking at other things, she bought what she needed and left alone those she didn’t need. Still, she bought some melon seeds and toffee. Those were reserved for visitors on the first day of the New Year.

There was no need to buy milk powder. There was still a bag at home. Also, a can of malted milk powder too. That was drinkable.

After finishing all these things, the family of three went home.

As soon as Lin Qing He returned home, she gave the candied haws to San Wa and his brothers. They can share it among themselves. Of course, little Su Cheng also had a share.

Lin Qing He soaked the tremella.

Red date and tremella soup. Was there anything more nourishing for the heart and lungs than this during these snowy days?

Especially when the kang was burning at home. It was very dry. It was better to drink some soup to defeat the internal fire.

Still, the staple food had to be eaten.

A lotus root & pork rib soup, a dried bean & pork belly, and a bean flour bun.

Speaking of which, Sister Mei sent the lotus root. She went to get the meat yesterday and Sister Mei gave her the lotus. It wasn’t much, just that bit.

The lotus root was delicious when sliced and fried. However, Lin Qing He preferred to stew it into a soup. Adding in the ribs, it became the lotus root & ribs soup. On top of that, sprinkle a handful of peanuts into the soup and the taste became excellent.

When the boys’ grandparents came over, the family began their meal.

What one can eat on a snowy day was really limited. It was either cabbage or radish. Of course, there were dried beans, dried seaweed, fungus, and mushrooms. Still, it can’t beat summertime. At that time, there were plenty of edibles.

So one can imagine how popular this lotus root was.

The whole family gathered around together to have a delightful lunch as the outside snowed again.
