Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland - Chapter 743
Chapter 743: Chapter 744: Resisting Hard_1 Chapter 743: Chapter 744: Resisting Hard_1 Liu Zihan wondered whether it would be too premature since he hadn’t yet informed his parents about this.
Lu Jianjun seemed to catch onto Liu Zihan’s concern, so he kindly asked, “Zihan, have you not informed your uncle and aunt about this yet?”
Liu Zihan laughed awkwardly, that was indeed the case.
Lu Jianjun remembered that he had only told his father the same news a couple of days ago.
“Zihan, why don’t you go home first during the summer vacation, and let your uncle and aunt know about our relationship, and then I could visit your house?”
In reality, Lu Jianjun wanted to accompany Liu Zihan home, but he also wanted to allow some time for parents to adjust.
Otherwise, if he just showed up unannounced, it wouldn’t leave a good impression.
Furthermore, he would need to ask his sister-in-law regarding what kind of gifts to bring.
The good news about the household responsibility system was also out.
Zhang Jiang and Yun Men, hearing this news, almost broke down in tears, for their family had been going through such hard times over the past two years, they had been hoping for the implementation of the household responsibility system.
They had heard from their brother and sister-in-law that the yields under this system could be quite good.
“Zhang Jiang, here’s what we should do to avoid arousing suspicion that we already knew about this,” said Yun Men.
Zhang Jiang, heeding his wife’s advice, said, “Alright, we’ll do as you suggest. Our parents must know by now, too. I wonder how much land they’re planning to take? Should we write to our sister right away and ask her to send us some improved seeds?”
“Once we receive our assigned land, we should send her a telegram, that will be quicker. By the time our sister sends us the grains, our fields would have been ready,” Yun Men suggested.
Zhang Jiang agreed.
“How much land should we apply for?” they began to discuss.
“The children are still young, Little Zhuzi should start school soon, he’s turning seven after the New Year, even Little Huzi began to attend school at three,” dreamed Yun Men. These past two years, the twins were taken care of by Little Zhuzi, which allowed her to go to work and made their lives a little better.
“The little ones are already three years old, and Little Zhuzi indeed should start schooling. But school has already started this year, should we wait until the second half of the year to send him?” said Zhang Jiang. If it hadn’t been for Little Zhuzi, they wouldn’t have known what to do with the two little ones.
“We’ll send him in the second half of the year!” Yun Men decided, since the school year has already begun, if she enrols him now, he wouldn’t be able to keep up.
Once they had come to an agreement, they exchanged a smile. Over the past few years, the burden of their family had been placed heavily upon their shoulders, it was certainly a struggle.
Thankfully, it would all soon be over, once the household responsibility system was implemented, their family’s situation could only improve, and they wouldn’t have to live on porridge meal after meal.
In the last few years, with fewer people working and more mouths to feed at home, their family was eating mostly porridge and vegetables, with very little meat.
Qingzhao Village.
“Dad, Mom, are you planning to sign up for the household responsibility system?” Yun Hai asked his parents, curious to hear their thoughts.
Yun Lei also looked towards their parents, their younger sister lived in Kyoto, and their parents had visited Chengdu several times, they must know something about the household responsibility system, and they wanted to learn more as well.
“Are there any new policies related to this system? If it’s beneficial, we shall follow the Party’s guidance,” Yun’s father asked with a grin.
How could he not know about his sons’ intentions?
If you asked directly, I might tell. But if you’re going to beat around the bush, I would rather not.
