Strict Wife of the ’70s Manages the Household

The small money and notes she saved were wrapped in a handkerchief and locked within a box on the shelf.
The box with the money was then placed on the head of the kang.

But after thinking about it, she took out most of the money and hid it inside a pair of small shoes.
Tying it with a leg strap and hiding it under the quilt, she locked the boxes and the cabinets separately.

Early the next morning, the old lady asked the second brother to borrow a bicycle.
First, he went to Linhe Village that was six miles away to deliver a letter to her eldest daughter, Han Daman’er, before delivering more letters to Han Jinbao and Han Jinyu.

Han Daman’er was the eldest daughter of the old lady and was two years younger than her eldest brother.
She was not favored in the family and had been through her share of working tirelessly for her parents.
However, she didn’t think that she had it rough as she liked being nosy.

In particular, she liked to trail behind Old Lady Han and bark out her own orders.

When she didn’t have any children, she kept quite a low profile.
Later, after having two sons, she straightened her back and even dared to contradict men.
Soon, she wasn’t that filial and obedient towards her mother anymore.

Afterwards, she perceived herself as having a high standing and liked to be the ‘main character’ in every incident.
Also, she especially enjoyed coming back home to meddle with her brother’s affairs.

The contradiction between Lin Lan and her mother-in-law was also something that she frequently participated in.

Every time Han Qingsong came back, she would always show her standing as an eldest sister.
Han Daman’er would lecture her younger brother and use those ‘filial piety’ words that she had learned to scold Han Qingsong and suppress Lin Lan.

When Han Qingsong was not at home, she would return and bicker with Lin Lan every once in a while.
Countless times she had used her authority to tell Lin Lan the basic rules such as to abide by women’s ethics, obey the rules, be filial to her mother-in-law, respect her eldest sister and so on.
