Strict Wife Of The '70s Manages The Household-Chapter 982

The kangs in other houses were all gray and dull, but their walls were covered with . Plus, the hooks of the mosquito nets were sewn together with a flower whereas the pillows were covered with pillowcases like those in the city.

They didn’t buy ready-made ones, but made them themselves with leftover cloth and used a sewing machine to stamp a few simple patterns on them. Although they were kind of rough and not really considered delicate, they were unusually harmonious with the surrounding environment.

The yard outside was originally very spacious, but they opened up a vegetable patch which mainly grew tomatoes, onions, and leeks. Trees were planted at the borders of the wall and the shadows of the trees swayed in the yard, encasing it with thick greenery. The thatched house, toilet, duck pen, chicken shed and dog kennel were also all arranged in order.

“There’s even a bathroom!”

“This is too luxurious!”

Even people in the city don’t have bathrooms (1), and it would usually be really cramped since they would stuff 7 or 8 family members together into one space.

(T/N: There was definitely a toilet of sorts at most houses, but it was rare to have a specific space meant for just to clean up. Though, some just do their business in nature’s space)

The Director’s wife was really good at enjoying life!

The two added another trait on top of Lin Lan’s alleged laziness and greed.

It was not easy for ordinary people to build a house, but their family had such a big yard and it was so well-maintained. How many benefits must they have taken advantage of?

Yuxin felt a sense of justice in her heart, assuming that Lin Lan must be greedy for money. If she gave the older woman some benefits, surely it would not be difficult to ask for help.

She and Hao Liru exchanged looks and actually came up with an idea very cleverly. They could first pay Lin Lan to help them before reporting about her in an anonymous letter after their success!

Not only could they accomplish their own business, but they could also eliminate the root of the problem for others.

Killing two birds with one stone was a wonderful idea.

Lin Lan could see that the two who came and looked around suddenly wore a look of novelty on their faces. However, they didn’t talk about work, so she was a little uninterested. She was still busy making clothes for her daughter, so how could she have time to just hang out here? She invited the two people back to the main room and asked what was going on.

Yuxin smiled and said, “It’s nothing really.”

Lin Lan, “…If it’s nothing, I’ll get back to work then?”

Hao Liru immediately said, “Captain Lin, you can go ahead.”

Yuxin gave her a dissatisfied look whereas Hao Liru was a little embarrassed.

Lin Lan didn’t know what they were doing, so she continued making clothes.

Yuxin and Hao Liru commented again, “Captain Lin, it’s really convenient that you have a sewing machine at home. I can do it too, so why don’t I help you?”

Lin Lan shook her head, “Please, it’s no bother, just have a seat.”

The two sat on the edge of the kang as they watched Lin Lan make clothes, thinking of topics to talk about.

Yuxin wanted to test Lin Lan, so she talked about fabric, “Captain Lin, there is a new type of Dacron popular in the city now, which is crisp and cooling. It’s beautiful to wear in summer., so why don’t you buy some of that?”
