Strict Wife Of The '70s Manages The Household

Chapter 350

Chapter 350

At the office that was tucked into the corner of the Revolutionary Committee, Lin Lan couldn’t help but ask after Han Qingsong told her the results, “How much money did Zhao Anpin take?”

Han Qingsong, “More than 30,000 Yuan and a box of tickets.”

“Wow!!” Lin Lan was stunned. 30,000 Yuan!! As a mere Director of the Worker Propaganda Team, he would have been sentenced to death by shooting had he embezzled even 20,000 Yuan in the early days of the Republic of China. “He’s really something.”

She hurriedly smiled at Han Qingsong, lest he think that she was not being a good family member as she only wanted to encourage him to make money, “I’m not greedy, alright? This is not the money I earned, so no matter how much there is, I wouldn’t even bat an eyelash at it. Do you perhaps think that I don’t have my own set of morals?”

Han Qingsong, “No.”

He also made a sarcastic remark as to how his family’s and the Zhao family’s youngest sons were both sent into the labour farm due to that lack of morals.

Lin Lan couldn’t help but laugh when she heard what he said so deeply, “I think Zhao Anpin isn’t able to do many things on his own accord. Plus, his wife and many other people contributed to how he was able to keep that many scandals hidden. Rest assured— no matter what you do in the future, me and the children will never drag you down. You guys will never have to worry about us being dead weight, but I will also make sure to watch your backs diligently.”

Han Qingsong took her hand and squeezed it, “Thank you.”

Lin Lan’s thought process was that it was exemplary of someone to not take advantage of any benefits that shouldn’t be gained, but there was no reason to stand still and not fight for something that was befitting of one’s hard work. She said, “We don’t covet money that doesn’t belong to us, but we can’t be vague about what is rightfully ours either to suffer losses. Will the County reward you for catching this bad bug?”

If there were rewards, there would be motivation.

Lin Lan’s eyes were shining brightly.

Han Qingsong looked at her as he couldn’t help but raise his hand and touch her head, “Yes.”

Lin Lan felt better.

She immediately took out a red scarf, “Look, it’s beautiful, isn’t tit?”

Han Qingsong nodded, “It looks good.”

“I went to the Supply and Marketing Cooperative with that female officer just now and it was really convenient to have her around. I bought a chiffon scarf for our daughter. It was a little expensive, costing 1 Yuan and 20 cents. I was still feeling a bit uneasy about it just now when we were coming back. However, now that you mentioned that there was a reward, I feel much better about it.”

As she spoke, she patted her chest and made an exaggerated expression.

Maisui had seen the pink scarf that Han Qingsong had bought for Lin Lan and she wanted it too. Lin Lan wanted to give it to her, but she wondered if Han Qingsong would be unhappy about it, so she coaxed Maisui that she would buy another red or yellow one for her. Therefore, Maisui had been looking forward to one ever since.

This time when she went to the Supply and Marketing Cooperative, she happened to see a red scarf with gold speckles, so she couldn’t help but buy it.

Seeing her childish expression, Han Qingsong’s eyes curved into crescent moons, “From now on, I will be in charge of making money; you only need to be in charge of spending it.”

.

Oh wow, Lin Lan felt like she was just electrocuted. Was he just flirting with her?
