Chapter 31 Where does this pride come from?
Mother Qin glared at him angrily, "What's left? Yangyang's wife steamed three large baskets of buns today, more than 100 of them, and sold them all. She left these for us on purpose."
Qin Han breathed a sigh of relief. "I knew it. How could such delicious meat buns not sell?"
"More than 100 sold in half a day?" Zhang Guilan also asked.
Lin Chuxia did not hide it, "Well, there is a lot of traffic at the train station, and many people buy food, so it sells well."
"That's good," Zhang Guilan said with a smile.
Lin Chuxia left a total of 20 meat buns. She ate little for dinner, only one bun and a bowl of porridge.
Strong
Qin's mother and Qin's mother each ate two, Qin's father ate three, and his sister-in-law ate four. The remaining eight all went into Qin Han's stomach. They were all very satisfied with the meal.
The next morning, Lin Chuxia and Qin Han went to the coal yard.
The acquaintance was Qin Han's classmate and had some power in the coal plant. It was the off-season for coal consumption, so he gave Lin Chuxia a very favorable price.
The market price of a 12-hole honeycomb coal piece is 9 cents, and I paid Lin Chuxia 8 cents, which is considered the internal price.
However, she usually uses a large wood-fired pot to steam buns at home, as it can steam more buns faster, and overall, using firewood is cheaper than using coal.
There was definitely not enough firewood at home, so Lin Chuxia went to the woodworking factory again. The woodworking factory would process the waste materials left over from furniture making and use them as firewood, which was much cheaper.
Lin Chuxia's business is in full swing and gradually getting on track. Qin Yang has also received this month's salary.
After coming out of the finance office, Qin Yang was thinking about sending the money back to Lin Chuxia as soon as possible. As he was about to walk out, a figure followed him.
"Mr. Qin is also going to send money, let's go together?"
It was Li Wei from their department, two years older than him, and they usually had a good relationship.
"Yeah," Qin Yang replied calmly, and seeing that Li Wei still had an envelope in his hand, "Did you write a letter home?"
"Yes, my wife asked me to write her two letters a month. We have been married for almost a year. How can I write two letters a month? How can I write so much?"
Li Wei looked helpless, but there was no trace of disgust on his face.
Qin Yang grasped the key point of his words, "Did your wife ask you to write it?"
"If not her, who else could it be? Didn't your wife ask you to write a letter?"
Li Wei looked his brother up and down. It's no wonder that based on his brother's temper, if he were his wife, he probably wouldn't say something like writing two letters a month. No, if he were a woman, she wouldn't marry him.
He is cold all day long. Would you marry him and end up being an ice cube?
"What's that look in your eyes?" Qin Yang frowned slightly, "Who said my wife didn't let me write? My wife asked me to write her three letters a month."
Li Wei? ? ?
Is there something wrong with this person today?
Did you take the wrong medicine?
Where does this pride come from?
He came forward with a gossipy look on his face, "Then you write so many letters a month, what do you talk about with your wife? I've been thinking about it, but there's nothing to say. Our unit only has this kind of thing all day long, and I find it boring. You said you miss her, but I think about the things on the bed. You know what, I'm quite excited to write about this, but I'm afraid the letter will be lost in the mail, and then it will be embarrassing."
"You're already embarrassing yourself now," Qin Yang glanced at him unceremoniously.
A grown man thinking about those things on the kang all day long, what a waste.
Li Wei was not happy. "How is this considered embarrassing? I don't believe you haven't thought about it. Others have wives and children and can do whatever they want. But we live in two different places, so we can't even kiss each other, and you're not allowed to think about it?"
"You go and send it yourself. I'll go back first," Qin Yang turned around and went back to the dormitory when he reached the intersection.
Li Wei looked puzzled. What was wrong with him? He didn't like to hear dirty talk before they got married, but now that he's married, why did he get angry when a few dirty words were said?
Qin Yang returned to the dormitory and took out the letter paper.
It was his negligence. He had said before that he would write a letter to Lin Chuxia, but it turned out that he had not written a single letter in almost half a month since he came to the company. Even today, he was only thinking about sending his salary back.
What has she been doing in the past half month? Are you eagerly looking forward to his letter?
Qin Yang thought of the pair of watery and clear almond eyes, and then turned to the small mouth that was like a petal. He wondered if kissing it would be like eating a peach.
His Adam's apple rolled, and his mind was filled with the images of his wedding night, and he couldn't help but curse.
It was all Li Wei's fault. He had to bring up what happened on the kang when he was writing a letter, making his mind a mess.
Abandoning the thoughts in his mind, Qin Yang wrote down Lin Chuxia's name stroke by stroke.
……………………
It rained heavily all night. Although the sky cleared up in the morning, the road was still difficult to walk on, and the potholes were full of rain water.
Lin Chuxia rode out on her tricycle as usual.
Her life was very regular during this period. She bought ingredients in the morning, made buns at noon, and sold buns in the afternoon. She had adapted to this rhythm.
With the blessing of the spiritual spring water, she didn't feel tired despite the workload. Even Qin's mother admired her and came to help her from time to time, worried that she was just going through with it.
I went straight to the vegetable market and saw Li Jian directing several people to move vegetables beside the warehouse from a distance.
Seeing Lin Chuxia, he waved his hand and asked a few people to do it first, then walked straight over.
"Are your tomatoes almost sold out?" I haven't seen her come to sell tomatoes these days.
"It's almost time to pull out the seedlings." The peak season had already passed, and after selling the buns, Qin's father came to sell the harvest several times.
Lin Chuxia pointed to the shade of a tree on the side and the two walked over.
"I'm not here to sell vegetables today. It's like this. I started a small business selling steamed buns. I've been selling meat buns before, and I'm planning to make some vegetable buns. I want to buy some vegetables. I want to see if Brother Li can do me a favor and give me a discount on the price of vegetables."
"I'm out on business, just you?"
Li Jian looked at her thin arms and legs and suddenly thought of the cart she bought from the vegetable market. He thought it was for the convenience of transporting vegetables, but it turned out to have other uses.
Lin Chuxia was dissatisfied with the contempt in his eyes, "Why can't I do business? Things are done by people. If others can do it, I can do it too."
Li Jian was puzzled and said with a smile, "I forgot that you are also a strong man."
"Alright, don't say anything else. Just be frank. Can you give me a discount? I heard that Brother Li got promoted recently. He should have this right."
She just found out when she came here that Li Jian had been promoted and no longer had to keep an eye on the scale.
Li Jian cleared his cough. After all, his promotion was thanks to the girl in front of him.
"Come on, I'll take you to pick out whatever dishes you want."
Lin Chuxia didn't plan to order too much today. She wanted to order some leeks and celery if the price was right. When she arrived at the warehouse, she saw piles of beans.
“How much do you sell cowpeas?”
"This is cheap, two cents a pound. If you want it, I'll give it to you at whatever price you want. It really can't be any cheaper."
"Only two cents?"
If I remember correctly, my brother is now planting cowpeas and eggplants in the field.
