After letting go of Su Da Lin's matter, Lin Qing He took the brothers around the county city.

The brothers continued to make requests. Lin Qing He coldly smiled: "Initially, I wanted to give you each a candied haw, but now it's gone."

"We all know our wrong!" Da Wa said.

"So what about it? Even if you know you're in the wrong,  the mistake had already been made." Lin Qing He showed no mercy.

"Mother, since it's a rare chance to come to the city once, buy one for us!" Er Wa added.

"I know my wrong." San Wa also directed a pleading look to their mother.

Lin Qing He took in the three's behavior and didn't act too harshly. She said: "I can give each of you one, but you can't eat it now. We'll take it home, and keep it for tomorrow."

"Mother……"

Once the three stinky boys uttered mother, Lin Qing He interjected: "Want it or not?"

"Want!" What else can they say, it was better to keep it for tomorrow than not having any.

"Remember ah. Since it's your first offense, so I will be lenient with you. However, if you commit a second offense, you'll know then." Lin Qing He bought three candied haw sticks wrapped in oil paper and harrumphed.

Da Wa, Er Wa and San Wa nodded their heads, indicating that they would definitely not casually eat other people's stuff in the future.

They knew their mother's punishment method, simply too cruel. She purposely cooked delicious stuff to have them drooling. They were scared of her.

Especially since she had the final say at home, even their father dared not revolt against her.

After buying the candied haws, Lin Qing He brought them along for children's book shopping. Da Wa requested a revision book, but the revision book at this time was too simple. So they didn't get any.

Instead, they came to the waste section and bought a stack of old newspapers. These were all brought back for the kids' doodle.

It was very cheap and a few dimes bought a large bundle.

In addition, Lin Qing He also bought a watermelon. There was nothing better than eating one in this hot summer.

Only then she took the three boys home.

After arriving home, Lin Qing He was completely sapped. These three brothers weren't light at all, they been raised too well by her.

The candied haws were stored away, as she won't give it today as she had said eat it tomorrow.

For watermelon, she used the cool well water to chill it and leave as a snack for after lunch.

Because of exhaustion, Lin Qing He steamed a pot of steamed buns for lunch, which was served with a plate of fried green pepper and meat. A pot of tomato and egg soup too.

However, because her family's man was doing manual labor in the field and that her three boys got a good appetite, the amount of meat in the plate of fried green pepper and meat was quite hefty.

It was pork belly, very delectable from all the frying.  The green pepper was also delicious.

"Eat more meat. You have been working in the field for the whole day." Lin Qing He placed it into Zhou Qing Bai's bowl. This man kept on munching green peppers while refraining from meat as much as possible. How could she not know what he thinks, wanted to leave it for her and the children.

Zhou Qing Bai smiled faintly: "You eat more too."

"I don't need you to tell me, I will eat." Lin Qing He picked a few pieces of oily pork belly for him.
