Lín Wēi only realized when she died that having a sister-favoring mother would cause so much damage to her family.
Her father fell from a great height and died. Her younger brother went mis...
As soon as An Jing spoke, Lin Wei and Wang Ying exchanged a glance.
It has to be said that Shen Jize's ability to get things done is truly remarkable and hard to detect.
What happened last semester, it took until this semester, so long after the start of the semester, for the two of them to finally move out.
Wang Ying brought this up for no other reason than, "In short, our dorm will finally be quiet from now on. I asked the counselor, and it seems that no one will be moving into our dorm for the time being. It's highly likely that we'll be living in this dorm from now on."
Lin Wei was overjoyed, "That's great! If there are no outsiders around, do you want to earn some extra money?"
Wang Ying and the other two's eyes lit up instantly.
"Extra income? What extra income? Weiwei, you've only been in school for less than a year, and you've already found connections to earn extra money. But we haven't even graduated yet, can we do extra work?"
Lin Wei really didn't know this, but with Shen Jize around, there was nothing they couldn't handle.
"Well, I'll tell you when I get back. After all, although the extra money is confirmed, nobody knows if I can actually do it. I just think it's a good chance... Never mind, I'll tell you when I get back."
Lin Wei stirred everyone's interest before turning and leaving.
Wang Ying was the first to lose her temper, "Ugh, I can't stand it when someone leaves things unsaid. This Weiwei, I'm definitely not going to sleep well tonight."
"But what is Weiwei talking about? She wouldn't tell us unless things were already settled. It's probably going to work out. But can we make extra money from this?" Zhang Yanyan asked.
"It's definitely not going to be a major role, we can't do that kind of work, but it will definitely be related to my major. I don't care if I can make money or not, as long as I can learn more. Of course, I can't spend my own money, after all, I only have so much money at home, and it won't be enough to cover my expenses if I spend it out of pocket."
After finishing her sentence, Anjing looked at Wang Ying mysteriously and said, "There seems to be some secret between you and Weiwei that we don't know about."
Wang Ying immediately stopped talking, grabbed the thermos, and ran out, saying, "I'm going to get some water."
-
"I'll go get a glass of water."
In preparation for serving Shen Jize's dishes tomorrow, Lin Xiaomeng has been sitting with Lin Wei at the table for two hours, discussing the matter.
“Auntie, he’s coming with at most two people, and there are only five of us. We can’t eat too many dishes. This is even more lavish than the New Year.”
"You silly child, they've already helped us solve such a big problem and are treating us like guests, so we have to make sure everyone is happy."
"Okay, okay, but this is enough, and we can't finish it all. We can eat the leftovers for a week."
Lin Xiaomeng wasn't stingy at all. "Don't you have any girlfriends in your dorm? Pack some up and take them over for them to try. Yuanyuan and I will eat them for a few more days, and we'll definitely be able to finish them."
Lin Wei sighed, "Alright then, as long as you're satisfied."
Almost at the crack of dawn, Lin Xiaomeng took Lin Wei to the vegetable market.
"The lotus root soup is simmering in a pot early in the morning, so it can be drunk at noon. We'll also have a steamed fish, braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, and maybe a braised pork knuckle?"
"No, that's too much meat. There's already too much meat in the soup and braised pork, and another braised pork knuckle. How about beef instead? I'll also make a beef offal hot pot with tripe and intestines."
"Okay, bring some more greens, we can't do without them."
The two women, carrying loads in all four of their hands, bumped into Gao Huifang, who was also buying groceries. She quickly asked, "Did someone come to visit? Why are you buying so many groceries?"
"Yes, I'm treating Weiwei to dinner, the one who helped me last time."
At this point, Gao Huifang tentatively asked, "Weiwei, can I come over and see how you cook? I feel like my process is the same as yours, but the taste of my dishes is so different, so different."
Gao Huifang, who has already started setting up a stall, is doing well, but looking at her daily income, she has a certain sense of security.
But everyone understands that making money still depends on skill.
Lin Wei didn't hide it; she had already taught them.
But craftsmanship is something like that—
Even if you follow the steps exactly, the taste will still be different.
"You're welcome to come and learn, but I can't guarantee the final result," Lin Wei said with a smile.
Lin Xiaomeng was also helpless, "I also learned from this child. The process is exactly the same, but the taste is not as good as hers. You can come and learn from her again."
With Gao Huifang's help, the Lin family quickly prepared all the lunches.
At 11:30, Gao Huifang left voluntarily.
At exactly 12 o'clock, Shen Jize and Xiao Zeng knocked on the front door of the house.
"Miss Lin, Miss Lin."
Hearing the sound, Lin Wei immediately ran out, shouting, "Coming, coming!"
Upon opening the door, it was indeed Shen Jize and Xiao Zeng.
"Come in quickly, the food is ready."
Shen Jize quickly handed over the gift, saying, "It's my first time visiting, so please don't mind this small gift."
"You're too kind. This meal was just to express my gratitude to you, so there was no need for you to bring a gift."
"But it would be too inappropriate to just come to their door like this."
After sending Shen Jize into the house, Xiao Zeng turned to leave, but Lin Xiaomeng quickly called him back.
"Hey young man, don't go! Let's eat together."
Zeng turned and glanced at Shen Jize.
Seeing that Shen Jize nodded in agreement, he didn't leave.
A table full of children and women, Lin Xiaomeng hadn't prepared any alcohol at all. "I'm sorry, sir, please have a soft drink. No one in my family drinks alcohol, and no one will drink with you, so I didn't prepare any."
"You don't need to be so polite about the drinks. Auntie, right? Just call me Xiao Shen."
"Hey, Xiao Shen, Xiao Zeng, I asked Weiwei to invite you here today to thank you. I don't know what you like to eat, so it's just some simple food. Please don't mind."
"These dishes are already very good, far from being simple fare. And judging from the smell, they must have been made by Lin. There's hardly a dish that isn't delicious when she's cooking."
Lin Xiaomeng was taken aback, and then suddenly remembered that Lin Wei had mentioned that Shen Jize would come to her stall to buy food every day at noon.
"Back then, Weiwei only made one meat dish and one vegetable dish. Today there are many more dishes, so try them all. If you like any of them, come and eat here often."
Lin Xiaomeng was definitely just being polite. After all, Lin Wei only came back once a week, slept for a while, and then left. She herself didn't cook often, so how could she come over to eat often?
But packing it up and bringing it over is not out of the question.
After realizing what she meant, Lin Xiaomeng immediately changed her words, "Or you can ask Weiwei to make something for you and send it over. The school food is not very oily, so you need to change things up occasionally."
Of all the dishes on this table, Shen Jize actually has some he likes to eat.
"I love your soup; it tastes so good and fragrant."
Stewing soup in a pot is a specialty of Jiangcheng; the longer it's stewed, the more fragrant it becomes.
The key point is that most of the soup was made by Lin Xiaomeng.
"I'm glad you like it. I've cooked a big pot of it today. I'll pack some for you when you leave."
