Chapter 481 settle
After seeing off their parents and eldest brother, the two sisters walked back together.
"I didn’t expect Mom and Dad to give us so much money."
Each daughter of the Zhao Family received one hundred. Each son received one hundred and fifty.
Considering the current times, this was really quite a lot. Especially since their old parents had saved it bit by bit from their meager savings.
"Yeah, it really is a lot. They must be extremely frugal at home, not willing to spend a penny."
"Indeed, our money is squeezed from our tight budgets, earned by ourselves."
As for Zhao Qingxiang and his group, there were no sleeper tickets for the train, so all ten of them had to sit upright for the journey.
This was indeed quite exhausting. But since they were heading back home, their mood was different, so it didn’t feel too uncomfortable.
Upon arriving in the city, Zhao Qingjie went to the oil mill where they used to extract oil and arranged for someone to take their family back to the farm.
Zhao Qingjie also bought twenty pounds of cottonseed oil, as the old couple needed food too. It’s not that their sons didn’t care, but the distance made it difficult. During the spring planting and autumn harvest, even if they wanted to eat together, they didn’t have the energy.
So there were preparations the brothers made sure to arrange for the old couple, as they had discussed.
It was already the end of March. Although the snow on the road was still quite thick, it had started to melt. The roads during the day weren’t particularly easy to traverse. On the cart were luggage and four kids. If the adults got really tired, they would also take turns to sit for a while.
