Strict Wife Of The '70s Manages The Household-Chapter 904

On New Year’s Eve, Eldest Brother Han went to the streets and stood behind the Eldest Sister-in-law’s house for a long time. Although it was not as lively, the family of three seemed to be having a peaceful and harmonious time. Later, he went to stand behind Lin Lan’s house, though her family was undoubtedly the most lively in the village. Having many children and a good amount of wealth, the laughter never seemed to die down. The amount of good energy almost seemed capable of blowing the roof of the house off.

After returning home, even Second Brother Han’s house was lively. In the main house, Old Man Han only knew how to snore and all Old Lady Han did was curse and sigh. The house was shrouded in such a depressing and cold atmosphere that even the red couplets and blessing characters for the New Year could not suppress it.

The three of them sat there in silence, as meaningless as it was to still remain awake in the dark of night.

Eldest Brother Han wanted to find someone to talk to. At this point, his heart was as heavy as a mountain and he wanted nothing more than to cry.

Lin Lan’s house was naturally more lively than it was last year, especially when the New Year’s money was distributed. Lin Lan said that if the children kowtowed to their parents and added their test scores, they could get three shares of money.

Although Sanwang’s grades were not very good, he knew the words he should for his level and did not make any big mistakes. Lin Lan was not harsh on him and gave him one dollar(2).

(T/N: I used the Chinese currency of Yuan this entire time, but I’m going to change it so that it’s easier to understand and imagine. There’s no impact on the story, but think of it as a word change— a dollar is a really large amount for the 70’s)

One whole dollar!

Sanwang almost fainted with happiness!

He originally thought that since he got 5 cents for kowtowing twice last year, at most, he would obtain 10 cents this year? He would proclaim ‘long live his parents’ should he get 20 cents.

So he didn’t expect to get one dollar!

Oh my gosh, he suddenly went from a poor monk to a rich abbot!

Lin Lan also smiled and told them that she still was not going to restrict them on how to spend the money. Instead, she hoped that they would spend it happily and meaningfully.

As soon as Sanwang heard this, he wanted to trick Xiaowang and his older brothers into pooling the money for a toy gun in the county town.

Xiaowang gave the money to Lin Lan, “Mom, save it for me to treat my eyes.”

With that, Sanwang immediately handed over his own money, “Mom, let’s treat Xiaowang’s eyes first.”

Lin Lan smiled and said, “Mom and Dad will save the money for the eye treatments. This money is to comfort and reward you for your hard work for a year, so take it. It’s a new year and a new atmosphere, so let’s make a fortune!”

“Make a fortune, make a fortune!”

After the New Year, it was time to pay New Year’s greetings, watch performers walk on stilts and dance the Yangko. Of course, there was also visiting relatives and giving each other New Year’s money. It was the happiest time for children and the adults had to smile and laugh despite giving out hard-earned cash…
