As everyone was getting busy, Qin Yuanjiu had to lead a team to the machinery factory early in the morning to pick up machines. Afterward, he also had to train a few young men to operate the machines and investigate where to mine clay, etc.

Ke Meiyu was really going all out to make the most of her time to increase her peace points. She set a timer in her space, and as soon as the time came, she would rush out like a little snail to get busy.

After studying the system and space for over two months, she realized that peace points weren't just about physical contact. As long as the main villain felt her dedication, she could gain points continuously!

Although their marriage was a sham, they lived under the same roof. The villain was busy with matters concerning Luofeng Village, which, in a sense, was a major issue related to the future of the Ke family!

Ke Meiyu naturally wanted to reward him properly. As the saying goes, eat well in the morning, eat your fill at noon, and eat less at night. Breakfast is not something to be taken lightly; it must not only be nutritious but also provide sufficient nutrition.

She spent half a day planning breakfast, using readily available ingredients to cook.

Men have a big appetite and they have a lot of work to do, so they don't know when to eat lunch. Therefore, Ke Meiyu made pancakes with wild boar meat filling, paired with salted duck eggs, stir-fried green peppers and potato shreds, and stewed cabbage, meatballs and vermicelli soup.

The meal looked simple, but it kept her incredibly busy, even though she was a complete kitchen novice. By the time she finished preparing everything, Qin Yuanjiu was just getting up to wash up.

Ke Meiyu, being a virtuous woman, didn't even take off her apron. She brought out a cup and basin of warm water, and even squeezed out the toothpaste!

Qin Yuanjiu was startled and hesitantly took the food. "Tell me, what delicious food do you want, or is there some tricky thing you need me to help you solve?"

Ke Meiyu glared at him. "What? As a wife, shouldn't you serve your hardworking husband tea and water? I understand how hard you work!"

He let out a soft breath, chuckled, and began brushing his teeth, mumbling, "That's rare. I thought the sun had risen in the west."

Ke Meiyu went into the room to make his bed and saw that he had already folded the quilt into a neat square. She then opened the wardrobe and said, "Ninth Brother, which outfit are you wearing? You don't have many clothes. I'll learn to use a sewing machine from my sisters-in-law and make you a few more outfits."

“Don’t wait until we go to the provincial capital for school, and you’ll still be changing clothes every day with only two or three outfits. It’s not like we’re poor,” she muttered as she picked up the clothes and came out. “Is this outfit okay? You’re going to the machine factory today, you can’t wear something too worn out.”

Thinking that Qin Yuanjiu still had to tinker with the machines and it wasn't appropriate for her to wear something too new, she chose a dress without patches.

“Okay,” Qin Yuanjiu’s brows were warmed by the morning sun, and his eyes were filled with a gentle smile. “You can take care of these things. Remember to make a few things for yourself.”

Ke Meiyu nodded repeatedly. Of course, she was a female college student, so her attire had to be appropriate.

In this day and age, people who can go to university are basically destined to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives. Now that the family's situation is starting to improve, she has no interest in why she can't improve her food and clothing to a higher level.

Watching the man devour the delicious meal she had prepared, Ke Meiyu escorted him to the door, handing him a thermos filled with warm water and a handbag. With a gentle smile, she waved to him, "Comrade Qin, I wish you a smooth day. Come back soon, and I'll make your favorite braised pork for dinner!"

Looking at the little woman who had suddenly grown up, Qin Yuanjiu felt incredibly soft-hearted. He couldn't help but indulge himself, leaving the car aside and taking a step forward to pull her tightly into his arms.

Feeling the woman in his arms stiffen and instinctively resist for a moment, even though his heart was pounding, he still didn't dare to go too far. Qin Yuanjiu simply buried his head in her fragrant neck and pretended to be very moved, saying, "Comrade Ke, thank you. Since I left home, no one has been guarding the door for me, telling me to come back early, and no one knows that I like to eat braised pork."

Ah, he does like to eat meat, but he knows that the little one in his arms is the one who loves braised pork the most.

Ke Meiyu was about to push the person away when she felt extremely guilty.

She thought that men all like to eat meat, especially now that people have less oil in their stomachs. Braised pork is a timeless delicacy that has remained unchanged for thousands of years, so it shouldn't be a bad choice. Moreover, she thought that this braised pork would melt in her mouth, be rich and delicious, and have a hint of sweetness. She thought that one bite would make her feel like she was in heaven.

She only wanted to please him while also enjoying a delicious meal herself, but because she wasn't being sincere, she ended up moving a grown man to tears.

Ke Meiyu couldn't help but chuckle and pat his shoulder, her voice softer and sweeter than usual, tinged with intimacy and alluring sweetness: "Now that you have me, if you like, I'll wait for you to come home for dinner every day. Just tell me what you want to eat, and I'll make it for you!"

"I like anything you do," Qin Yuanjiu snuggled against her, not wanting to get up. She was like a piece of honey, making one want to swallow it whole, yet also afraid of getting stained and cut open, making one treat her with utmost care.

Ke Meiyu couldn't help but smile, "Okay, when I go to the old house to coax the kids later, I'll make some delicious food and save some for you. I found a lot of books at the provincial capital's scrap yard, including cookbooks with both Chinese and Western styles."

"Let's make this secretly behind closed doors. I wonder if you've ever had this in Kyoto before?"

Qin Yuanjiu straightened up and rubbed her cheek with his hand. "When we go to Kyoto, I'll get you an oven for your home, so you can do whatever you want with it!"

Every woman has a romantic side and a love for little things, and baking and floral arrangements seem to be the most popular choices.

Ke Meiyu smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, you must remember that!"

She would never bother the system store with anything she could do herself, because the prices there were outrageous and they would rip people off without hesitation.

She's too poor to afford this.

After seeing the person off, Ke Meiyu looked comfortably at her peace score, which was now maxed out for the day, feeling incredibly relaxed.

She tidied herself up a bit and then went out.

When it comes to their own interests, the villagers are quite enthusiastic about their work. The sooner they dig the canal, the sooner they can have three meals of steamed buns made from three kinds of flour a day—or rather, the sooner they can solve the irrigation problem.

So before dawn, everyone carried their tools and came to the Ke family to call Ke Lao Si to go out and work.

After receiving the call, the professor of civil engineering in the provincial capital quickly arranged for one of his best students to come over.

In their final semester, university students are required to undertake internships. Some outstanding students are recruited by their employers after their internships. The rest either find suitable employment or are sent back to their hometowns to work.

Internships are meant to bridge the gap between school life and work, but the internships in Luofeng Village are different. They are linked to organizational development, are real-world jobs, and can enhance a student's resume, making them highly sought after.
