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.
