Chapter 85 Lin Yu provides a new idea for making dried fruit.



Accountant Li rolled his eyes. His second son was indeed not very bright. He had already made it so obvious, why did he still have to ask?

"Second brother, you're right, we're dividing the family property now."

From now on, you can run your own household.

But don't think that just because Lan Hua got married, she's no longer part of the family. When I divided the family property, it was divided equally into four parts, one for each person.

No one in the family found it strange, except for Zhang Bing, who was sitting next to Li Lanhua, who was extremely shocked.

I've only ever heard of favoring sons over daughters, never of dividing a family property and giving a share to the daughter.

His father-in-law is truly an extraordinary person.

Seeing his confusion, Accountant Li explained, "Son-in-law, do you know that a large portion of our family's work points are earned by Lan Hua alone?"

It's fair to say that a large portion of our house and money belongs to Lan Hua.

"Orchid, dividing it into four equal parts is actually unfair to you."

Li Lanhua shook her head and said, "Dad, I'm not wronged. This family belongs to all of us."

Although I work to earn money, my two sisters-in-law take care of everything at home; I don't do anything.

This is the fairest way to divide it equally; you don't need to overthink it.

The two sisters-in-law felt relieved after hearing what their sister-in-law said.

Their husbands didn't see their contributions, but their sisters-in-law always remembered their kindness.

The younger sister-in-law has always respected her two sisters-in-law, so they had no objection to the division of the family property equally.

The family reached an agreement on dividing the inheritance equally, and Zhang Bing, as the son-in-law from out of town and the beneficiary, had even less objection.

Two days after their wedding, after getting a clear picture of the family situation, Zhang Bing finally made his request to Li Lanhua.

Li Lanhua knew all along that Zhang Bing must have his own ulterior motives for marrying her.

Therefore, I wasn't surprised when he said he wanted a spot in the fan workshop next time.

Working in a fan workshop is actually more suitable for him.

According to Li Lanhua's observation, Zhang Bing was not very good at farm work. Even after spending more than half a year in the countryside, he still only received half of the work points every day.

Working at a vermicelli workshop is at least not as hard as working in the fields, and since he's educated, he might even be able to become a manager.

Of course, Zhang Bing thought so too.

At this time, they were newlyweds, and Li Lanhua naturally agreed to help him fight for it, but she couldn't guarantee anything.

After all, Accountant Li wasn't just her father; she also had two older brothers and their wives, as well as other relatives.

Last time, Accountant Li recommended his eldest brother, second brother, and Ma Lianhua to go for an interview.

Li Lanhua voluntarily gave up her spot because she felt that someone had to do the work in the fields, and with her strength, she was more suited to working in the fields.

In the last interview, only her eldest brother Li Xingguo and her second aunt Ma Lianhua were admitted to the workshop.

Her second brother, Li Jianguo, failed the test because he was too slovenly.

If there are further interviews, Li Lanhua will try to get a spot for her husband, but she cannot guarantee that Zhang Bing will pass.

Zhang Bing understood this principle, but he was very confident that he could pass.

After all, he was a sent-down youth, and he was much more cultured and insightful than the others in the team.

If Lin Yu could become the person in charge, he felt that he was no worse than her.

Of course, he didn't say this out loud, since his wife and Lin Yu seemed to have a good relationship.

A wise man knows when to yield. Zhang Bing is now like a tiger fallen into the plains; the best thing for him to do is to keep a low profile.

Lin Yu was unaware of what had happened in Li Lanhua's family, and after attending the wedding, she did not inquire about their married life.

Lin Yu is eating pears with her family.

He even threw one to Lin Xiaoqing.

Xiao Bao and Tie Dan each received a whole pear because they had heard that pears shouldn't be divided, otherwise it would be considered separation.

Grandma Lin sighed, "If there was only one, who would care about all that? But we have such a big basket of them, so let's just each have one."

Lin Yu nodded, "The Dongfeng Brigade has a ton of fruit, not just pears but also apples and dates. Let's go exchange some more after we finish these."

Lin Yu had no idea before, but now that there's a place where fruit is practically free, she felt it would be a waste not to eat it.

Grandma Lin patted her: "You're such a good eater. The road to Dongfeng Brigade is too difficult to travel. We only go there occasionally to exchange for some fruit. Nobody goes there normally. The young men in their brigade can't find wives from outside."

“Difficult roads are not a problem. I have good stamina. You guys eat as much as you want. I’ll go get something else when I’m done.”

Grandma Lin sighed, "They have so much fruit every year that they can't finish it all, and it goes bad. It's such a pity."

Lin Yu nodded.

The next day, she took a bag of fruit to the workshop.

Thanks to the collective wisdom of the people, the small earthen kilns for drying scallions have been greatly improved.

Previously, drying took six hours, but now it only takes three hours.

Since Lin Yuan wasn't there, and Lin Yu didn't want to discuss it with anyone else, she studied it on her own for a while.

Remove the pits from the fruit, slice it, lay it flat, and put it into a small earthen kiln.

The workshop workers were busy with production, and few people noticed her.

At noon, Lin Yu took the things out of the box, intending to take them home.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw that his family was already there. Qiao Feng, who never seemed to know what he was doing running off to every day, had returned this time.

Seeing that everyone was sitting together, Lin Yu put a bag she was carrying on the table.

"Come and see what I've done!"

Lin Laosan raised an eyebrow and asked, "Xiaoyu, what is it? Is it something delicious?"

Xiao Bao raised his hand: "Sister, is it delicious?"

Lin Yu opened the bag: "Ta-da, take a look."

Lin Aiguo was the first to recognize them: "These are... those fruits?"

Grandma Lin picked up a slice: "Is this an apple?"

Xiao Bao also pinched off a slice with his little hand: "This is a pear."

Lin Yu nodded: "You guys should try it."

Lin Aiguo took a bite of an apple slice and his eyes lit up. Unlike fresh fruit, these dried apple slices had a sweet and sour taste, a soft and chewy texture, and a refreshing apple aroma.

Lin Laosan also liked the dried pear.

Xiao Bao and Tie Dan have small mouths, so they take small bites and can gnaw on a piece of food for a long time. But judging from their expressions, they clearly like it very much.

Even my sister-in-law, who is currently in postpartum confinement, ate a piece and told Lin Yu that she thought it was delicious.

Lin Yu had already eaten a few slices as soon as they were baked, and she thought her family would like them too.

As expected.

Lin Aiguo was overjoyed: "Xiaoyu, our workshop can also make this dried fruit."

My uncle truly lives up to his title as the team leader; he takes the workshop's affairs to heart.

That's exactly what Lin Yu was thinking!

Seeing that the fruit from the Dongfeng Brigade couldn't be transported out and could only rot in the fields, she felt really heartbroken.

Many people outside have money but can't afford fruit, while the Dongfeng Brigade has fruit but everyone is starving and emaciated.

So she had to come up with a way to get the Dongfeng Brigade's good fruit out of the area.
