Sun Cui said happily, "I never thought that I would have the opportunity to work in the city. I will definitely work hard and not be a burden to everyone."

"You have to work hard, otherwise it will be embarrassing to take the money."

Old Mrs. Zhang instructed her daughter-in-law.

She took Old Lady Li's hand and continued, "It is a blessing to be related to your Li family."

"My dear relatives, you can't say that. It's mutual. After all, I ate a lot of the bacon you made."

"I just need some time."

The pork was sent by Li Mingli and Zhang Lihua.

She was only out for half a day, it was no big deal.

"My daughter Lihua is lucky to have such a kind mother-in-law like you. As for the idea of ​​her going out to work, I have never seen any mother-in-law in the village allow it, let alone let her run the household."

"I separated from the family early, and it made me feel a lot more relaxed."

Old Lady Zhang stayed for more than an hour and then went back.

Sun Cui is busy in the kitchen.

Women are familiar with kitchen work, and it is an easy task for them.

Wash the vegetables very neatly and place them on the shelves.

In less than two hours, all the vegetables needed for the afternoon and tomorrow were cleaned up.

I don't feel tired at all.

She can earn more than 20 yuan a month by doing such an easy job, and she is willing to work here for the rest of her life.

But it was much easier than the back-breaking farm work she did in the village.

Li Mingqing sat at the cashier desk drinking tea.

Old Lady Li asked, "Have you finished the greenhouse work this time when you return to the village?"

"Leave this matter to Mingfu and Xiangjun."

"I thought you'd be overseeing the construction yourself, but I didn't expect you'd hand it over to them. This is a good thing, at least it'll be easier for you."

He smiled and said, "If I do everything myself, I'll tire myself to death."

"That's right. I see you've become thinner these days."

Old Mrs. Li's face was full of heartache.

Wu Xiaoya and Zhang Chuner came over.

"Uncle, is everything okay at home?"

"Very good. Your grandparents and your father asked me to tell you that everything is fine at home. Feel free to work here."

After the two of them went to the side to do their work, Mrs. Li whispered, "Wu Liguo and his wife are going to go and make trouble with the old couple of the Wu family, right?"

"That's for sure. I went back at noon and Zhou Xiaoshuang asked me to give Xiaoya her salary."

"Alas, the old are old, the young are young, how pitiful! Fortunately, Xiaoya is kind-hearted, otherwise your Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu would have no hope at all."

After she finished speaking, she went to the kitchen and got a chicken drumstick and placed it in front of him.

"Son, fill your stomach first."

Li Mingqing smiled and said, "Mom, I'm not hungry. I came here after having dinner at home."

"That's fine. No matter how busy you are, you have to remember to eat. Man is iron and rice is steel. If you skip a meal, you will feel hungry. Over time, your body will break down."

"Okay, I will definitely not miss any meal."

It was almost time for dinner and more and more people started to arrive.

Li Mingqing didn't expect to meet Qian Xiaoli by chance.

It was obvious from Qian Xiaoli's expression that she also saw him.

"Doctor Li, I heard from my colleagues that you opened a restaurant here. I didn't expect it to be you."

“There’s a menu on the wall, take a look and see what you can order.”

"Give me one serving of braised pork, one serving of green vegetables, and one steamed bun."

Qian Xiaoli sat at the table, looking at Li Mingqing carefully from time to time.

Old Mrs. Li, who has lived so long, understood it at a glance.

In fact, over the years, many young girls have asked her openly or secretly, and rushed to become her stepmother.

He's really willing to do anything for money.

But judging from the way Qian Xiaoli is dressed, she doesn't seem to be short of money.

"Ming Qing, who is that girl?"

"Hospital nurse."

Old Mrs. Li nodded and looked at Li Mingqing meaningfully, but was interrupted just as she was about to speak.

Li Mingqing said helplessly: "Mom, I know what's going on."

"Just know the number."

Qian Xiaoli left after dinner.

She was very happy in her heart, at least now she could see Li Mingqing from time to time.

I don't mean anything else, I just want to see him.

Li Mingqing didn't think it was that serious. Now that the restaurant was back on track, it didn't matter whether he came or not.

Just come twice a month to check the revenue.

Although Mrs. Li is old, collecting money is a piece of cake for her.

Very energetic and vigorous.

The old lady felt that she had lived the first half of her life in vain.

——

A few days later.

On his way home, Li Mingqing met Li Xiangjun, who looked worried.

Li Xiangjun was so dejected that he didn't even see him.

"Xiang Jun, Xiang Jun!"

Li Xiangjun finally heard it after shouting twice.

Li Xiangjun ran over immediately after seeing him and shouted, "Mingqing, I just happened to need you for something."

"What's up?"

"I'm embarrassed to tell you about this, it's just about building a vegetable shed. The weather will get cold in two months, and the villagers have no confidence in growing vegetables in winter. They think it's unreliable."

Originally, the villagers were very enthusiastic.

Later, someone said, "You can't grow crops in winter, and it's a thankless job," and the villagers gave up.

Li Mingqing said, "The villagers are probably tired after just finishing their farm work. They won't be so upset in a couple of days. Go back and tell them that they can grow bean sprouts and vegetables in winter. The villagers have been doing farm work for most of their lives, so I don't need to explain this to them."

Li Xiangjun nodded and said, "The greenhouse will need a lot of oil paper to cover the roof."

"Yes, can't so many people in the village come up with the money? It wouldn't cost much to divide it equally among each household. But there are indeed some who are too stingy to give a penny. That's okay, just don't be jealous when the time comes to make money and divide it."
