Strict Wife Of The '70s Manages The Household-Chapter 709
Lin Lan was also wondering about the same thing. After the children went to school, she thought about it at home and felt that she had to make some preparations. She placed sticks, wooden fork spades, etc. in places where she could grab ahold of them in the house and yard. This way, she could protect herself if Han Qinghua ever tried to do anything.
Then, she began to take apart and wash the bedding and clothes. There were five or six beddings in the house. Plus, the family’s cotton-padded jackets would be washed, dried and re-sewn in turn.
At this time, Eldest Sister-in-law Han came over, carrying a pile of freshly picked persimmons with a dustpan, “Brother, sister, look at these foreign persimmons. They have gotten so ripe in one day, so I got you some.”
Lin Lan also has some in the vegetable garden, but since she had many children who loved eating cooling persimmons, they consumed them quickly and didn’t leave much left. People with whom she had good relationships had since offered to give her some.
Lin Lan took a gourd scooper and picked up the persimmons, “Eldest Sister-in-law, Old Four is back.”
Eldest Sister-in-law Han didn’t know about it yet, so she asked,”Old Four? Fourth Uncle?”
Lin Lan nodded.
Eldest Sister-in-law Han frowned, “Originally, I thought that visiting relatives was something attainable only a year and a half after being admitted into the camp. You’ve seen him right, how did he look? Is he still up to no good?”
Lin Lan told her about Han Qinghua’s arrival.
Eldest Sister-in-law Han asked, “He changed?” She had nothing but suspicions.
Lin Lan, “I don’t know, but we’ll see in a while, I guess,” After some time, a person’s nature would be revealed. Even if he was pretending, he wouldn’t be able to pretend for too long. If one had a tail, they would be exposed pretty soon, and with a temperament like his, he probably wouldn’t be able to keep it up a lot longer if it was an act.

Eldest Sister-in-law Han was a little worried, “You’d better be careful in case he has nothing but bad intentions.”
The two sisters-in-law talked for a while. Eldest Sister-in-law Han watched Lin Lan unpack and wash the bedding. Then, she left in order to handle matters at her own home.
Han Qinghua didn’t come over in the afternoon, but Lin Lan was unpacking the quilts at home all the same. She had always wanted to put a duvet cover over the quilt itself, but after all she didn’t have enough money, so she still proceeded to wash and dry it every summer.
She started cleaning the boys’ quilt first.
Although her family was very hygienic and the children washed their feet and face every day while taking a bath once a couple of days, their quilts were rather dirty. After all, it was only taken apart and washed annually, so no matter how clean they were, there was bound to be some dirt on it.
It was conceivable that the other homes were not so hygienic. From autumn to spring, this quilt had really gotten as filthy as a rusty iron.
In addition to the cotton bedding, the family’s winter clothes also needed to be
taken apart and washed. Those that have been worn out needed to be replaced with new ones whereas those that were too lumpy should be replaced with a layer of new cotton. Plus, some of her kids have most likely outgrown their jackets, so some new ones were required as well. In short, there were many things to do.
