Bringing a System to the 70s: Getting Rich by Selling Braised Vegetables

Originally, Jiang Ning was a somewhat famous beautiful owner of a private restaurant. Because she stayed up late reading a novel with the same name as the female supporting character, she unexpecte...

Chapter 59 Bicycle

Jiang Ning began to prepare lunch in a hurry.

Fortunately, there is order in the chaos, and everything is still in time.

So she took some time out of her busy schedule to share the pear that Uncle Zheng had given her in the morning with everyone.

It's soon time for lunch.

Secretary Chen was the first person to arrive at the cafeteria.

"Good afternoon, Secretary Chen." Jiang Ning was the first to greet him.

"Good afternoon, Comrade Jiang. The dishes you cooked last night were really good. I ate a lot of food by myself. Especially the braised pork, which was fatty but not greasy."

"Thank you Secretary Chen for the compliment. I also made this dish for lunch today. Come and try it."

Secretary Chen glanced at the food window. Today's lunch consisted of stir-fried pork with green peppers, stir-fried pork with chili peppers and potato slices, and stir-fried bok choy and lettuce.

It looks delicious and tasty, making people's mouths water.

Sure enough, the food in the cafeteria was gone very quickly.

The break passed quickly and they had to prepare dinner again.

Jiang Ning's day was extremely fulfilling, and he didn't even have a chance to take a break.

It's finally time to get off work.

But when she thought about the fact that she still had to walk for forty minutes to get home.

Her head was full of confusion. She was so tired and really didn't want to walk.

It seems that buying a bicycle is imminent.

I must arrange to ride my bike when I have a day off this week.

Jiang Ning walked out of the office gate weakly with his lunch box.

"Jiang Ning, it's time to get off work." Uncle Zheng watched her float over.

"Uncle Zheng, good afternoon. I'm off work. You went early today, so I guess you got the food." Jiang Ning felt like he didn't have the strength to look up.

"Didn't you tell me this morning to go early? I went early today. How about the pear I gave you? It's sweet, right?"

"I've finished eating. Don't tell me how sweet the pear you gave me is. Thank you, sir."

"Why are you saying thank you to me? I should thank you too." Uncle Zheng was about to say something else when he looked behind Jiang Ning.

Then he said, "Okay, go back early, someone is here to pick you up."

Jiang Ning was completely confused: "Someone is coming to pick me up? Where is someone coming to pick me up?"

How could someone come to pick her up? Did Mr. Zheng make a mistake?

Everyone is very busy.

And even if I pick her up, wouldn't we just walk back together? There's no point in picking her up then.

Uncle Zheng pursed his lips and said, "Look behind you."

Jiang Ning turned around in confusion and found that the boss was pushing a brand new 28-inch bicycle and looking at her with a smile on his face.

She called out in surprise, "Chen Yan? Why are you here?"

Uncle Zheng said from behind Jiang Ning, "How is it? Am I right?"

Jiang Ning nodded. "Sir, you really didn't recognize the wrong person. But how did you know him?"

"During the last exam, there were three or four people waiting for you outside, and this guy was one of them. And why didn't you look at me? How could you have recognized the wrong person?"

After hearing what Uncle Zheng said, she finally understood.

"Okay, sir, I'll be off work now. See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

Uncle Zheng watched her run towards Chen Yan and muttered softly, "She looked so lifeless just now, how come she suddenly looks so full of energy?"

"Chen Yan, why are you here? Aren't you setting up a stall today? And where did you get this bicycle?"

Jiang Ning now has a lot of questions to ask him.

"You asked me so many questions at once. Let me answer them one by one. Don't be impatient."

Chen Yan seemed unhurried.

Then he continued, "I saw that you were too tired from leaving for work an hour early every day, so I came to pick you up. I'll leave the braised food stall to my second brother and my younger sister. Don't worry, we make a lot of money every day now, so we won't stop setting up the stall easily. As for the bicycle, I bought it this afternoon."

"You bought it this afternoon?" Jiang Ning was a little surprised.

"Yeah, you spend almost an hour walking to work every day. You waste too much time on the road and you're too tired. So I bought a bicycle. Didn't you teach me that time is money?"

"Chen Yan, you are so thoughtful. I was thinking today that I must buy a bicycle this weekend. I didn't expect that you would actually buy me one today. You really saved my life. I finally don't have to walk to and from get off work every day."

"You have no idea how tired I am today. I'm telling you, wasn't I the one who cooked dinner last night? Director Liu from our cafeteria saw that I could cook on my own, so he called me over early this morning and told me that the cafeteria is now scheduling cooking shifts. Chef Wang cooks Mondays and Wednesdays, and I cook Tuesdays and Thursdays. On Fridays, Chef Wang cooks lunch and I cook dinner."

"It's a good thing you came to pick me up today, otherwise I would have gotten home very late. I feel like I haven't had any rest today. I've been spinning like a top non-stop."

Chen Yan looked at Jiang Ning's tired face and felt a little sorry for her.

She really works so hard.

"Okay, now it's time to get off work, come on up. I'll give you a ride."

He patted the back seat of the bicycle and motioned Jiang Ning to sit on it.

Jiang Ning didn't hesitate and sat down on it.

"Okay, hold on tight. I'm leaving."

"I've already sat down, so you can drive without worry."

"Chen Yan, you ride the bike very well." Jiang Ning looked at the big man riding steadily in front.

"That's right, don't you see who I am? I'll get it after one try." He responded loudly from the front.

In fact, he didn't know what was going on. After he bought the bicycle, it was as if he had muscle memory and he could ride the bicycle very skillfully.

It was like he had ridden it before.

Chen Yan was a little curious about who he was before.

Not only can he ride a bicycle, but even when he reviews his homework with the Jiang Ning sisters every day, he can understand many questions just by taking a quick look.

For many questions, you don’t have to think about them at all, you can just pick up the pen and write.

But I still can't remember it now.

However, he didn't force it.

He feels that his current life is very good. If he really can't remember it, it would be nice to spend the rest of his life with Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning was talking behind his ear and Chen Yan couldn't hear clearly.

"Jiang Ning, you bought this bicycle. You can ride it, right? You don't need me to pick you up every day, right?"

Jiang Ning couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Who are you kidding? I can definitely ride it. You'll be able to ride it after just one lap, and I think I can do it too. How about letting me try?"

She couldn't help but be eager to try it.

Although I have never ridden a bike before, it looks like it should be quite easy.

After hearing what Jiang Ning said, Chen Yan stopped immediately and said, "Come on, try it."
