Lin Anshu took it out and glanced at it, only to find that the person who called was Zhao Tong.

It was Section Chief Zhao from the Kangdaer Research Institute who had visited their home before.

After she answered the phone, she politely said, "Hello, Section Chief Zhao."

"Xiaolin, it's me. I have something I wanted to talk to you about. Are you free right now?"

"It's convenient, you tell me."

"..."

Ten minutes later, Lin Anshu stood there, slightly dazed, after hanging up the phone.

"What's wrong, An'an? What happened?"

Seeing Lin Anshu answering the phone, Granny Jiu pulled Uncle Jiu over to the mountain produce they had gathered to sort it.

Seeing Lin Anshu standing there in a daze after hanging up the phone, she couldn't help but speak up.

"Grandma Jiu, it's nothing, it's just... a big order suddenly came in."

"Section Chief Zhao, who came to our house to help test the vegetables before, introduced us to a vegetable business."

“The price was the same as my selling price, but the person he introduced ordered 800 jin of vegetables in one go.”

“800 jin? That’s quite a lot. An’an, what are you thinking?” Granny Jiu pressed.

“I agreed. Although we don’t have to worry about selling our vegetables, and people order them online every day.”

“But if someone wants that much at once, I naturally have no reason to refuse.”

"Besides, I grow quite a lot of vegetables. If I sell them early, I can plant another batch."

"The only trouble is that I have to drive these vegetables to Ancheng."

"But it's not a big problem. Eight hundred pounds is nothing for my Wuling."

"Yes, you're right to think that way!"

"An'an, the vegetables you grow taste good, and more and more people will like them in the future."

"Who knows, maybe by next year, you'll need to expand your vegetable production," Granny Jiu said with a smile.

"Hehe, Granny Jiu, I haven't thought that far ahead yet."

"These dozen or so acres of land I have now are enough for me to cultivate," Lin Anshu said with a smile.

"No rush, take your time, do it the way you like, don't tire yourself out."

"Uh-huh."

"When are they going to take those 800 jin of vegetables? I'm free right now, come on, let's go dig for vegetables together," Ninth Master said.

"No need, no need, we need it tomorrow. I'll call my parents and the others to dig it up tomorrow morning."

"If it doesn't work out, we can hire two more people."

"It would be great if you could help with the cooking," Lin Anshu quickly said.

She invited Ninth Master and Ninth Granny to help with cooking.

After all, both of them were getting old, and Ninth Master's health hadn't been very good before.

Lin Anshu felt a little reluctant to ask someone to squat in the field and dig vegetables for her.

"That's okay too."

After their conversation, Lin Anshu went to Xu Yi's house across the street.

Ninth Master and Ninth Granny stayed in the kitchen to start stewing white fungus and red date soup.

The customer requested that the vegetables be delivered at 11 a.m.

It takes at least three hours to get from home to the destination.

In other words, Lin Anshu must leave no later than nine o'clock in the morning.

This means they have to get up at three or four in the morning to dig for vegetables.

Only vegetables dug up at that time are the freshest.

Therefore, the people Lin Anshu came to see were not Xu Yi, but Xu Yi's parents.

"Uncle, Aunt, I need your help."

"An'an is here? Please sit down, please sit down. I'll go make you a cup of plum powder."

When Liu Meiling saw Lin Anshu coming over, she greeted her very warmly.

After all, since Lin Anshu returned to her hometown, she often took her son Xu Yi with her to play.

While playing, Xu Yi also made money.

This was something Liu Meiling had never dared to even imagine before.

Xu Yi used to be considered well-behaved, but that goodness was only superficial.

To put it bluntly, it's called being submissive, lacking initiative, insecure, and unhappy.

But ever since he started going out with Lin Anshu all the time, he changed.

Despite his immature mind, he has learned to care for others, to take initiative in doing chores at home, and even to be happy.

Xu Yi is happy every day now.

He also used the money he earned to buy gifts for everyone in his family.

Although the gifts were small and worthless.

But everyone in the family was so moved that their eyes welled up with tears.

Not to mention, Liu Meiling recently discovered that her son Xu Yi seems to have become smarter than before.

It's as if the person's IQ has increased significantly compared to before.

She is still discussing with Xu Yi's father about taking Xu Yi to the hospital for another check-up when she has some free time.

"Thank you, Auntie." Lin Anshu accepted the cup of dark brown plum juice, thanked her, and continued speaking.

"I wanted to come over and ask if it would be convenient for me to come early tomorrow morning?"

"I just finished negotiating a vegetable deal with a client in Ancheng. I have to get up early tomorrow to go dig for vegetables."

"My parents and I are probably too busy, so I'd like to ask you to come and help us tomorrow morning."

"50 per hour."

"An'an, it's convenient for us, we have time, but since it's a favor, we won't accept any money."

“You take care of Xu Yi for us every day, and you even had Xu Yi bring back a lot of groceries for the family.”

"I haven't even thanked you for this kindness yet, how could I possibly ask you for wages now?"

"If you keep saying that, your uncle and I will get angry," Liu Meiling said sternly.

"Alright, let's not talk about money then. I've come here sincerely to ask for your help, Uncle and Aunt."

"No problem, what time tomorrow?"

"Is it okay to go to the fields at four in the morning?"

“Sure, no problem.” Liu Meiling agreed without hesitation.
