Qin Yang expressionlessly pushed the canned bottle filled with beef sauce towards him.
Zhang Dawei’s eyes lit up, and his smile grew wider, “Today I’m blessed because of Mr. Qin,” he grabbed a chopstick full and put it on his plate, took a bite, and sat up straight, “Mmm, delicious.”
At first, Bai Xiaoming just watched for amusement, but as the meat sauce dwindled, he became restless and hurried to scoop some too.
As Zhang Dawei ate, he didn’t stop talking, “I’ve never tasted such delicious meat sauce before, no, I’ve never eaten sauce made from beef in my whole life, Mr. Qin, isn’t your sister-in-law from a State-Owned Restaurant’s head chef?”
“Right, Mr. Qin, I heard you went back home recently to get married, is it especially awesome to get a daughter-in-law? What does kissing feel like? They say it’s like eating a peach, is that true?”
Bai Xiaoming struggled to hold back his laughter, almost giving Zhang Dalengzi a thumbs up.
The bachelors at the construction site liked to talk about stimulating topics, especially someone who went back home to find a partner and got married, they would definitely show off.
Whether it’s boasting or bragging, they aren’t picky about topics,
It’s fine to chat casually below, but now they even dared to ask Qin Yang, something he himself dared not ask so straightforwardly.
Qin Yang had never kissed Lin Chuxia’s lips, only her cheeks, smooth and tender, not just her cheeks, but her entire body was fragrant, soft, smooth, and tender.
Her lips were even more rosy and plump, like a budding flower, presumably the feeling of kissing them wouldn’t be bad either.
He suddenly regretted, being too preoccupied with other matters those days, he didn’t kiss her.
Looking up to see Zhang Dawei’s eager gossip-hungry eyes, he stiffened his face, “Have you finished today’s work? If you’re not thinking about work, go inspect the engineering route again.”
Zhang Dawei, still stuffing meat sauce into his mouth, was dumbfounded, “Huh?”
“What ’huh’? Can’t do it?” Qin Yang’s gaze swept over, and Zhang Dawei shivered.
Would he dare say he couldn’t do it in front of this fierce boss?
“Guaranteed to complete.”
After speaking, he quickly picked up his plate and left.
He was wrong; even with Mr. Bai present, he shouldn’t have crowded around this fierce boss.
After everyone had left, Qin Yang picked up the canned bottle, seeing only a little meat sauce left at the bottom, he pursed his lips.
Bai Xiaoming didn’t dare to provoke him further, quickly saying, “Don’t come to the cafeteria tonight, come to my house for dumplings, I’ll have my daughter-in-law make you meat fillings.”
“No,” Qin Yang refused without a second thought.
The meat his daughter-in-law makes always has a gamey taste.
Before, he didn’t notice, as long as it was meat, no, anything edible, he could eat it.
But after eating the meat buns made by Lin Chuxia, no type of meat-filled dumplings could attract him anymore.
Scraping out the meat sauce from the canned bottle, Qin Yang then took out a bottle of fried chili from his pocket and poured it onto the food.
The fried dried chili, charred and fragrant, mixed with white sesame seeds, fried in some oil with a hint of sesame aroma.
“Ssss…”
Bai Xiaoming’s teeth hurt, it was sour.
………
In two days, the cart was completely renewed.
The three wheels of the cart had been repaired and inflated, and the boards on the cart had also been replaced.
Previously, the boards were made of bamboo strips, which were hard to find here, so Brother Qin directly used wood to break and replace the boards, making it look more stable.
Lin Chuxia rode the cart directly to the city; since business was to be done, everything that needed to be purchased should be purchased.
These past few days she had talked with her in-laws, Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin would help with the farm work for now. The tomatoes were almost ready for pruning, and after that, they would stop planting vegetables and switch to planting wheat when the season came.
She certainly wouldn’t be able to farm while running a business, but fortunately, there wasn’t much land, and Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin could manage it.
From now on, she would forgo the money from selling tomatoes and eventually give more money instead.
These were matters she brought up openly. Since the family had already divided up, even if the elders were willing to help them, she couldn’t comfortably enjoy the elders’ favoritism.
Among the siblings in the family, the most taboo thing was the elders not treating everyone equally.
The brotherly relationship between Qin Han and Qin Yang was harmonious, and she couldn’t let her decisions affect the brothers’ relationship.
Brother Qin and his wife still planned to continue farming vegetables; Lin Chuxia wasn’t disappointed by their decision. After all, doing business was like feeling the stones to cross the river for people at this time, and nobody dared to take risks lightly.
Moreover, Brother Qin and his wife were indeed capable. In her last life, they built a new house just by farming, which made Lin Jiayi complain frequently at home.
Complaining about the in-laws being biased, the division of the family being unfair, the land given to Brother Qin being more abundant which made their life better, even suspecting Qin Yang’s salary was in the hands of their mother-in-law, all subsidizing Brother Qin’s family.
Through the interactions over this period, Lin Chuxia realized that the parents-in-law considered both children in everything they did, and wouldn’t possibly do something like using the younger son’s salary to subsidize the eldest son.
No matter how many lifetimes one experiences, a person’s character doesn’t change; they couldn’t do such a thing.
She bought a coal stove, steamers, iron pots, and other kitchenware from the hardware store, some bowls and chopsticks, food bags, and greaseproof paper for food packaging from the department store, then she went to the grain and oil store to buy flour and oil, and to the grocery store for pork, scallions, and spices.
The spices from this era have a richer flavor than those later produced by more fierce technological methods, though the variety was limited.
Lin Chuxia bought some of everything that was available, the rest could be found in the villa.
In her last life, she developed several food recipes, and it was these recipes that Li Guangyuan dared not mistreat her.
No matter how big the food factory, the spices needed all came from her.
She ground the spices into powder and made them into seasoning packets; these finished spice packets piled up a lot in the basement of the villa.
Additionally, for developing new recipes, there were many spices stored in the basement.
Fortunately, after the market opened up, agricultural and sideline products were the first to no longer require coupons, otherwise, buying these items with coupons would have been a problem.
The fifty-kilo bags of flour, Lin Chuxia directly lifted and swung them onto the cart, moving the small iron stove was not a problem either.
Lin Chuxia felt that her strength had indeed increased a lot compared to her last life, probably thanks to the spiritual spring water, and recently she had been outdoors running around in the wind and sun; not only did her skin not get tanned, but it also seemed a bit whiter than before.
She decided that not only would she add some spiritual spring water for her in-laws, but she would also find a way to use some for Qin Yang.
His work environment needed more physical strength and stamina, having a healthy and robust physique was fundamental to completing the job better.
When she was walking home, the cart was packed full of items.
When she arrived home only Mrs. Qin and Zhuangzhuang were there.
Mrs. Qin, seeing the cart full of items Lin Chuxia had brought, hurried over to help, and even little Zhuangzhuang came running over.
“Why didn’t you call your dad or your brother when you went out to buy things, with so many items how did you…”
Before Mrs. Qin could finish speaking, she saw her gentle, soft, and frail daughter-in-law lifting the big bag of flour directly from the cart.
She lifted it!!!
