"Have you packed everything? Is this backpack a little too small? If not, I'll go to my neighbor's house and borrow a bigger one for you, and I'll carry it for you." Jiang Sui stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers in front of Xiang Baiwei, "Weiwei, why are you daydreaming again?"

"ah?"

Xiang Baiwei came back to her senses and took a step back without leaving a trace: "Nothing, I was just thinking about what price would be appropriate for these things later."

This excuse that Xiang Baiwei made up did not deceive Jiang Sui.

Her small movement to step aside did not escape Jiang Sui's eyes.

Jiang Sui was confused. Did he say something wrong? Everything was fine just now. Why did Xiang Baiwei's attitude suddenly change?

She seemed to have returned to her previous state, always being cautious and deliberately keeping a distance from him.

Jiang Sui, who was at a loss for ideas, scratched his forehead in distress. "It seems that you have prepared all these things. Let's set off now. It's not long after dawn, the sun is not strong outside, and the weather is cool. Let's go quickly."

"good."

When they arrived in town, the two went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative.

There, Director Sun seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

Xiang Baiwei placed all the newly made jams and preserved fruits she brought on the table, and then made a particularly heroic gesture: "I have made some improvements to the food I made before during this time. Director Sun, please try it. Is it better than the last time?"

Director Sun laughed heartily, as if the previous incident had never happened. "From your tone, I know that this must be delicious. After all, few people dare to make such a guarantee. But your cooking skills are indeed good. Your partner is really lucky to marry such a capable wife like you."

"I also think my partner is very lucky. There are so many people in our village who want to eat what I cook. Director Sun, please try it quickly. It is definitely better than the last time." Xiang Baiwei took advantage of the situation without any modesty. "Try it quickly. I'm waiting for your evaluation."

Jiang Sui stepped forward to help unscrew the lids of the cans. Director Sun brought a clean bowl and found two spoons, and separated the contents of the glass jars and tasted them carefully.

After a while, Director Sun nodded twice and said, "It tastes really good. No wonder you are so confident. You must be quite good at it."

Xiang Baiwei laughed, pulled out a stool and sat down: "So Director Sun, what do you think about that matter..."

Director Sun glanced at Jiang Sui standing there with some curiosity: "Did you discuss this with me? Doesn't your man make the decision?"

"He is our family's treasure," Xiang Baiwei said casually, "He doesn't need to worry about such troublesome things. We can just discuss it between the two of us."

"You two are really interesting."

An hour later, Xiang Baiwei and Director Sun of the supply and marketing cooperative signed the contract after negotiating the price.

Although Director Sun seemed somewhat reluctant, Xiang Baiwei, who had been reminded by Jiang Sui in advance, was very determined this time and insisted on signing the contract.

Otherwise, if the last time happened again, and they suddenly stopped the cooperation without any warning and started selling to others, where could she go to seek justice? Moreover, now is not the same as before. The production in the workshop is planned, and it is impossible to only look at the current step.

The contract must be signed.

So before Xiang Baiwei came, she had already prepared herself mentally. If Director Sun really didn't want to sign, then she could just give up the cooperation with the supply and marketing cooperative.

At worst, we can wait another month, and after Jiang Sui’s classmates come back from the south, we can go directly to the provincial capital to discuss other cooperation opportunities.

Fortunately, although Director Sun was not happy, he finally agreed to sign the contract.

Xiang Baiwei didn't care about his inner thoughts. As long as the contract was in hand, she was not afraid of him breaching the contract.

But soon, Xiang Baiwei thought that the laws of this era were not perfect enough, so she had to find an opportunity to go to the city for consultation and make full preparations in advance to prevent Director Sun from taking advantage of any loopholes again.

But there was one thing that made Xiang Baiwei feel particularly strange.

Because the contract just signed was drafted by Jiang Sui.

As far as I can remember, Jiang Sui doesn't know much about the law and isn't interested in it, but the contract he drafted this time didn't seem to have any mistakes, and when he explained the terms to Bai Wei, he seemed to understand it very well.

Xiang Baiwei suspected that either Jiang Sui had secretly studied law in a place she didn't know, or Jiang Sui had always known it but he was hiding something, so she didn't know about it in her previous life.

After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Xiang Baiwei, who had just reached a new cooperation, was in a very good mood. She patted Jiang Sui's shoulder and pointed to the distance in a generous tone: "Let's go to a restaurant for lunch. The dumplings over there are good. I heard they are very delicious. I haven't eaten them yet. I'll treat you. Eat as much as you want and eat until your belly is full before leaving."

Jiang Sui looked at the smug Xiang Baiwei with smiles in his eyes.

That’s great, he likes the lively and vivid Xiang Baiwei.

"Then I will eat as much as I can at noon when the boss treats me," Jiang Sui said politely while playing with Xiang Baiwei. "Come to think of it, I haven't had dumplings for a long time. I just happen to be craving for them."

Coincidentally, the couple had just entered the dumpling shop, and on the other side, Liu Mei and Xu Xiuxiu walked into the supply and marketing cooperative arm in arm.

When entering the room, Xu Xiuxiu was very careful to support Liu Mei: "Is the injury on your foot really not serious? I saw you went back to the hospital two days ago. I feel scared just thinking about it."

"It's okay, it should be fine." Liu Mei continued walking forward nonchalantly.

A few days ago, Li Dazhuang came to Xiangjiazhuang again and stopped Xu Xiuxiu to talk for a long time.

Liu Mei looked frightened, and, using the excuse that her old injury had not yet healed, she hid back in the county town. If it had not been for the school meeting that she was ordered to attend, she would have wanted to hide in the county town for a while longer.

"Then let's go check out the delicious food."

Xu Xiuxiu was looking for something to eat, so when she walked to the food counter, she saw the saleswoman arranging a row of opened jams in front of her.

Liu Mei walked over and said curiously, "This jam looks familiar."

"This is made in the small workshop opened by Xiang Baiwei," Xu Xiuxiu leaned close to her ear, "I secretly tasted it and it's really good. I don't know where she learned how to make something so delicious."

Liu Mei looked at the row of jams and said, "You guys are going to sell these things in the future, right?"

The salesperson nodded and said, "Yes, the director asked us to put these on display. These are all tastings. You can try them if you are interested."
