Raising Babies in the 70s - Chapter 52

As long as she didn’t care about public opinions, Li Qinghua was quite happy.

It was very difficult to face her husband who often sighed.

Recently, her husband even broke up with her, and was about to get divorced.

Divorce was acceptable by her, but Li Qinghua didn’t want to leave Qiongzhou Island. She loved the island more than the man.

The husband scolded her, “You can’t live like you used to!”

Yes, in order to stay on the island, she had to save herself.

Li Qinghua looked at Qin Rou. The beautiful newly moved colony member was living next door to Huang Xinying, living in this house with bad “Feng Shui”. She could imagine what her future would be like.

Seeing this little girl enjoying the cool air and drinking tea alone, she may be as lazy as her.

– She would probably be getting a divorce soon.

Li Qinghua followed the political commissar and heard a few words of the revolution. She felt that she might be able to form a divorce front alliance with Xiao Qin and become revolutionary comrades-in-arms.

“Your man only comes back two or three times a week?”

Li Qinghua blurted out, “That’s really good…”

Her man was from the shore army, and he returned to the house quite frequently. Li Qinghua hoped that the man would come back a little less. Whenever he didn’t come back, she would be happier, so as not to listen to his endless chatter.

Qin Rou: “…”

Something seemed wrong!

Li Qinghua seemed to realize that she had said something wrong, she covered her mouth, and then thought that she had formed an alliance with Xiao Qin so there was no need to hide from her.

“Xiao Qin, my man thinks about another woman, what else can I expect?”

“I’m telling you this, don’t tell anyone else.”

Li Qinghua felt that her man envied other people’s wife, so he must have liked Huang Xinying, Xiao Qin’s neighbor.

Qin Rou: “…”

This was really a big melon. (gossip)

She had only been there for a few days but heard such a melon.

“Okay, okay.” 

But Qin Rou didn’t want to eat such a melon at all. She had just arrived at the place, so she didn’t understand the situation.

Qin Rou was also reluctant to know more about other people’s family affairs.

Li Qinghua didn’t say who her man really liked, but she just believed that his heart was not with her.

Li Qinghua also knew that she had to make gradual progress and slowly associate with Xiao Qin, who was in her alliance. She hoped that Xiao Qin would fall in love with Qiongzhou Island as she did, and would stay there to work after the divorce.

Xiao Qin was beautiful and looked like a literate city person. Maybe she could give her some ideas to stay on the island and find a job in the future.

“This fruit tea is really delicious!”

“Next time you come to my house, I…”

Li Qinghua found that she really had nothing to entertain others with.

“I’ll invite you to eat thorn fruit.”

“I invite you to eat it now! I’ll go home and get it!” With that, Li Qinghua hurriedly ran away.

After a while, she ran back with a “big fruit”, and Qin Rou found that the thorn fruit she mentioned turned out to be… jackfruit? ! !

Li Qinghua was very lazy. She hardly took care of her yard and did not grow anything else. There was only a jackfruit tree in her yard, which had been in there since the start, but the jackfruit tree was very strange as she didn’t need to care about it. Just watering it, it grew very well, and would bear fruits.

Li Qinghua said to Qin Rou seriously, “Xiao Qin, you just came here, you don’t know, the trees here have their own ideas, its fruit would ripen when it wants to, and no one could guess when it would ripe.”

“I pick one when it is ripe.”

“It also has leaves. In autumn and winter, the leaves will not turn yellow, nor will they shed. It may be in March when they shed. I seem to have forgotten the fallen leaves, I have to shake it!”
