Chapter 99 A Plate of Fried Cakes

The distance from the stone factory to Tian Xin's home is not far, only about ten minutes' drive.

Tian Xin felt dizzy and fell down while sitting, lying on her side in the back seat.

The car kept moving forward. She felt like she had gone a long way, so she asked, "Are we there yet?"

Zhang Feng did not respond.

"Where are we?" she asked again.

Still no response.

She sat up, looked out the window, and suddenly became much more awake.

"Zhang Feng, where is this?"

“Almost there!”

Zhang Feng didn't look back and continued driving on the mountain road.

Their family lived in a production team. There were two roads leading to the factory: a main road and a small road. The main road connected to the fields, and the small road connected to the residents.

When driving, people usually take the main road because it is wide and easy to drive on. For some reason, Zhang Feng took the small road today.

He drove slowly with the windows open, greeting every villager he met.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

"Nothing? We're almost there. If you're tired, take a break!"

"Why take this route?"

“…”

Zhang Feng didn't answer. A few minutes later, the car stopped steadily at the door.

"Thank you!" She thanked him and turned to open the car door and get out.

"Wait!" Zhang Feng turned around and looked at her deeply: "You... really don't like me at all?"

"I'm sorry!" she said, "You...are fine, but I don't have any plans to date or get married right now! So...don't be too embarrassed when we meet at the factory next time. Let's just be friends!"

After saying that, she got out of the car without looking back at Zhang Feng.

As soon as she got home, she fell down and slept for a whole day and night. She didn't wake up even when her mother called her to eat.

It seems that I can't drink this wine anymore. This body is still too young and has never experienced the invasion of white wine. I will feel dizzy if I drink just a little bit.

Li Baiwan did not break his promise.

On the afternoon of the third day, she came back from the village committee. Along the way, she met several people who greeted her from afar, and all of them had happy expressions on their faces.

"What's wrong? Why are you so happy?" Tian Xin asked.

Guo Zhenmin walked towards her and said with a smile: "It's made, it's made!"

"What happened?" Tian Xin asked him with a deliberate smile.

"Bonus! Bonus is paid!"

"Oh? How much did you get? Is it enough to buy New Year's goods?"

"That's enough, that's enough! I got 1,200! Now I have tuition, seeds, and fertilizer covered! Oh. Oh, and by the way, the factory director wanted to drink some of my brewed wine. I'll go back and make some and bring it to him later!"

Guo Zhenmin's face was flushed, unable to hide his inner joy, and he trotted all the way home.

Tian Xin looked at his back and felt happy inside!

“Ding ding ding ding—”

She was feeling happy when her cell phone suddenly rang. It was a text message from Lin Zhou.

What are you busy with these days?

What are you busy with? It’s hard to say.

[Busy] she replied.

【Don’t be too tired, take some rest】

【good】

Lin Zhou didn't come back. She put her phone in her pocket and walked down the hill towards home.

Before she entered the house, she heard a lot of noise, as if many people were talking in the room.

She was shocked, wondering if someone else was proposing marriage again!

She ran into the house and breathed a sigh of relief.

A group of aunts came into the house to chat and visit, and Li Xiaoyan was also sitting inside.

"Xinxin is back?" Li Xiaoyan saw her enter the room and hurried over to hold her hand.

"Ah, Auntie, why are you here? Come and sit down!" She pulled Li Xiaoyan to sit on the square stool beside the bed.

"I made some fried pancakes today and brought them over for you to try! You didn't even have a bite to eat when you came to my house the other day, and I felt really bad for you!" Li Xiaoyan pointed at the pancakes on the table and said, "They're fresh out of the pan. Try them!"

Tian Xin glanced at the table. The pancakes were still hot, steaming, clearly fresh from the pan. It took at least 15 minutes to walk down the steep slope from Team 3, past Team 2, and then to Team 1.

this……

She quickly picked up a piece and tasted it, praising it repeatedly: "Mmm, delicious! Aunt, you are really good at cooking. Please teach me someday!"

"Well, what's your cooking skill? If you like it, come to my house and eat as much as you want!" Li Xiaoyan patted her gently: "No one else has it! Xinxin, you are the only one!"

Before she could swallow the pancake in her mouth, the aroma of chopped green onions burst into her mouth. She felt that Li Xiaoyan had given her not only a stack of pancakes, but also the love of a simple villager for her like a child.

She thought of the day when she was going downhill, Li Xiaoyan and Guo Wanshun chased her out, stood on the slope and waved to her, and still stood there until she turned the corner.

"Auntie..." She was very touched: "Thank you!"

Li Xiaoyan chuckled twice: "This child, what is there to thank? He's even being polite to his aunt! If there's anything to thank, it should be me!"

She took out a stack of money from her pocket and said, "This is the bonus Wanshun received today. Guess how much it is?"

Tian Xin shook her head: "How much?"

"850 yuan!" Li Xiaoyan said loudly: "I will go to buy meat tomorrow, and then I can buy my baby new clothes for the New Year!"

"Okay! That's good, Auntie! It's good as long as it's sent!" Tian Xin nodded with a smile.

"Xinxin, did you mention this to your boss?" Li Xiaoyan asked her.

"Uh... no, maybe they remembered and reissued it!"

"I heard that you visited several families in the village these days. We have all received our bonuses! It must be you who asked the boss for it! Xinxin, I thank you from the bottom of my heart!" Li Xiaoyan held Tian Xin's hand and kept saying words of thanks.

"It was just a quick mention, it didn't take much effort. You're so polite, Auntie!" Tian Xin smiled and looked at the people in the room and said, "Don't tell anyone about this! I don't want to be known for this!"

"Don't tell me, don't tell me..."

"I don't know, but I know! I won't tell you! Eat the fried cake, eat the fried cake!" Li Xiaoyan smiled and brought the fried cake to her, urging her to eat it.

Li Xiaoyan seldom comes to visit. It's not that she is not welcoming, but it's just too far away. Plus, she has a big family to take care of and has no free time.

Having finally made it, she wasn't in a hurry to leave. After everyone else left, she even chatted with Tian Xin's mom. The two of them talked for most of the day, and Tian Xin, with nothing else to do, went to tinker with the computer.

Since buying it, she has been researching the online store application process. Back then, online stores were just starting out, and many procedures were not yet complete. Unlike more than a decade later, it was easy to open an online store and sell products online in just a few steps.

But she knew that this year was a booming period for online stores, and if she took advantage of it, she could make her first pot of gold. The prerequisite was that she had to have this awareness and understanding.

In her previous life, when she opened an online store, it was already a time when anyone could open one. However, she worked extremely hard but didn't make much money and even became ill.

Later, when live streaming emerged, she keenly sensed the opportunity, which led to her owning a house, a car, and a shop. But later... Oh, forget it, let's not talk about it!
