Strict Wife Of The '70s Manages The Household

Chapter 292

She thought about the matter very well and gave Dong Huaihua advice the next day, hoping that after the autumn harvest, the relevant personnel would educate the public about these sorts of scientific explanations.

When Dong Huaihua heard this, she laughed, “Lin Lan, this is not really a problem. Others would snooze the second you start talking. After all, it’s merely the time of the month; what else is there to talk about?”

“Director, we know there’s nothing much to talk about than what it is. But what about the girls who don’t know? Her family would be embarrassed to tell her what is going on and she wouldn’t understand. With that lack of knowledge, wouldn’t it be easy for something to happen?”

Girls who were seduced by men lewdly and girls from the countryside who got pregnant with youths by having intercourse and getting pregnant— were those incidents not considered a problem?

Dong Huaihua smiled and said, “Even if someone is going to talk, someone has to be willing to listen.”

This matter could be discussed with the lamps blown out as a married couple hid under their quilts and could also be brought up as a topic of conversation with other married men and women, mainly to tease. However, it just couldn’t be said normally in a family setting, let alone informing their daughters about the process.

They would be embarrassed, after all.

If someone brought up similar topics meant as dirty jokes or gossip material, everyone would be eager to listen to it; but if it was meant to be a topic of proper discussion, then no one would be able to keep a straight face.

It was depicted as shameful.

And there would be no doubt that the young adolescent girls would be even more embarrassed.

Dong Huaihua didn’t agree to it, let alone the Brigade, so Lin Lan knew that there wouldn’t be any progress in that matter for now. She had no prestige in her words, so it’s natural that she shouldn’t insist any longer. Instead, she would focus on educating her children first.

In the evening, upon returning home from work, Lin Lan took the Maisui to cook, whereas Erwang and Sanwang went to pick stones to pave the road to their new home.

When the fire was burning, Maisui told her, “Mom, let me tell you something.”

Lin Lan often talked to Maisui about her thoughts and it became a habit for the girl as well. Regardless of what she wanted, what sort of secrets she harbored or had any troubling thoughts, she wasn’t going to hide them from her mother.

“I watched Caihua and Yanyan hiding behind the haystack and behaving weirdly, but I didn’t know what they were doing.”

Lin Lan casually asked, “Did they have lice on them?”

At this time, the hygiene conditions of their era were not that great, which was why adults and children often had lice all over their bodies. Lin Lan in fact, spent a lot of effort to clean up her house by tidying and sanitizing it every day.

Maisui shook her head and murmured something in a low voice.

Lin Lan felt her scalp go numb and immediately said, “Maisui, stay away from them and just pretend you didn’t see it. I’ll go ahead and talk to their mothers afterwards.”

Maisui nodded, “I still have classes and work to do. Besides, I usually need to hurry home to finish my homework as well. Although they invited me before, I never accepted the offer to play with them.”

Lin Lan breathed a sigh of relief— with Erwang and Maisui together, they could both look out for each other and their other siblings.
