Chapter 166: Ugh~ I can’t breathe
After the rabbit's funeral, Goudan stood up and brushed the dust off his hands.
He sipped his lips as if to savor the taste.
Then we went out to play.
He had to show off to his friends how delicious the rabbit meat was.
After dinner, Ning Xinrou sat in the yard and made new clothes for the children in the family.
Li Xiuli and Zhou Mei assisted.
Two people cut and one sews, so the speed is not slow.
Asking for help, Zhou Mei was particularly sweet at this moment, "Sister-in-law, you have such a skillful hand, the clothes you make are so beautiful."
She just can't do this job.
It's like asking her to read a book, her head just feels dizzy.
Ning Xinrou was busy and didn't even bother to raise her head.
“It’s normal for people to be good at different things.
Take you and me for example, you are not good at making clothes, but you are very good at making pickles.
I'm good at making clothes, but if you ask me to make pickles, I'm sure I'll make a mess." She said in a gentle tone.
These words made Zhou Mei feel so comfortable.
"Hey, I think I'm good at making pickles, too." Zhou Mei wasn't being modest at all, but instead climbed up the ladder. "Sister-in-law, let me tell you, I'm not only good at making pickles, I'm also good at making other things."
There is just no material.
Lin Tang spoke at this time, "Second sister-in-law, is your tongue very sensitive?"
She suspected that her second sister-in-law had a very sensitive tongue.
This was something she discovered through careful observation.
No one can tell whether the food at home is salty or bland, but my second sister-in-law can always taste the difference.
Lin Tang felt that this was a talent bestowed by God on his second sister-in-law.
Zhou Mei was stunned, moved her lips, and said, "I don't know if it can be considered sensitive, but I can always feel whether the food at home is salty or bland."
This is also the reason why she makes good pickles.
Because the amount of seasoning is just right, not more or less, it retains the fragrance of the ingredients themselves and allows the seasoning to play its maximum flavor-enhancing role.
Lin Tang's eyes flickered slightly, and a gleam of light flashed across his eyes.
"This is a talent that others want but don't have yet."
She pondered for a moment, her red lips curled slightly, "Since Second Sister-in-law has such talent that others can't envy, after the sauce factory is established, let's give Second Sister-in-law a place to work in the factory. What do you think?"
Since my second sister-in-law has this talent, it shouldn't be a problem for her to get a job as a skilled worker in a sauce factory.
This is called putting the right person in the right position.
Hearing this, Zhou Mei's pupils suddenly dilated.
His body was so stiff that it seemed as if it was frozen in place.
A place to enter...a factory?
What does that mean?! Is that what she understood?
Lin Qingshui's mind went blank for a moment, and after a long time, he heard his own hoarse voice.
"...Sister, what do you mean, our family has a quota?"
The factory hasn't even been established yet, how come there are quotas...
Lin Tang's watery eyes held a smile, and she winked playfully and made a "two" sign.
"Yes, we have two spots."
After that, she explained a few words.
"Second sister-in-law has a good tongue, she is suitable for the sauce factory. When the factory improves the sauce recipe in the future, we will need talents like Second sister-in-law."
My second sister-in-law feels that she is gifted and has a talent for kitchen work.
If used properly, it can be a powerful "killer weapon".
Lin Lu had already learned from Lin Fu that his family had two places, so he was not surprised.
As for who to give it to? He thought that they were family after all, so it didn't matter who he gave it to.
Li Xiuli frowned slightly.
I don’t know what he was thinking about, he glanced at Zhou Mei and said nothing.
It’s also okay to arrange a wife for the second son.
It would be better if Mei Zi could change her temper.
When Lin Qingshui saw that his wife was dumbfounded, a trace of heartache appeared in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
He bumped Zhou Mei's arm and said with a smile, "Didn't you hear? Your family wants to reserve a spot for you at the sauce factory. Show some reaction. Are you happy?"
I hope Mei Zi has a stable income and doesn't push herself so hard.
Zhou Mei was suddenly bumped into and her body swayed slightly.
I finally came back to my senses from my daze.
The woman felt as if she had been electrocuted.
He stood up quickly.
Next second.
Just grabbed Lin Tang's hand.
There was even a hint of red in his eyes.
"Tangtang, are you really willing to give me a spot?" Zhou Mei's voice was very hoarse, and her tone was mixed with disbelief.
She looked at Lin Tang without blinking, her expression more serious than ever before.
Job quota...
My sister-in-law must know what this means.
Zhou Mei was not worried about her family's objection, because as long as her sister-in-law spoke up, the Lin family would have no objection.
But she couldn't figure it out.
She knew that her personality was not pleasing, so why was her sister-in-law willing to give it to her?
Lin Tang didn't think much about it and spoke the words naturally.
"Why not? Second sister-in-law is also family."
“It’s a bit early to say this now, after all, the sauce factory hasn’t even started construction yet, and it’s still uncertain when it will be completed.
Moreover, even if you get into the factory, you still have to work hard, it’s not that easy.”
So, there is really no need to be so grateful.
Zhou Mei shook her head and thought that things would be different once she entered the factory.
"Thank you, anyway."
Little sister.
Zhou Mei's heart was beating wildly, and it seemed as if a particularly complicated emotion was squeezing in her chest.
It can break out at any time.
The words fell.
She told the people in the yard that she was sleepy and went back to the house.
At this time, dusk was falling and red clouds were lining the sky.
Li Xiuli saw that it was getting late.
He stood up and sent the younger ones to bed.
"...It's getting late, you all should go to bed. Xinrou and I will finish packing our clothes and go to bed too."
Since the head of the family has spoken, no one else dares to act rashly.
After a while, the yard became quiet.
Second room, inside the house.
Zhou Mei returned to the room in a daze, sat on the kang, and stared blankly.
When Lin Qingshui pushed the door open, the woman didn't even raise her head.
He was completely different from his usual noisy and bustling self.
Strangely quiet.
Lin Qingshui raised his dark eyebrows slightly, feeling surprised and uncomfortable.
"What are you thinking about?" He sat over and asked curiously.
He thought his wife had gone back to her room to laugh secretly, why did she look so serious?
Zhou Mei's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she glanced at him reluctantly, "Nothing."
His expression was gloomy and it was obvious that he was not speaking from the heart.
Lin Qingshui's heart sank. He really didn't like seeing his wife looking so listless.
The man was silent for a while, then smiled and pinched Zhou Mei's nose.
"You're so depressed, and you're still okay? Do you really think I'm blind? What's wrong? Tell me if you're unhappy."
It's not the light pinching like in idol dramas, but a real pinch.
It made Zhou Mei unable to breathe.
Being treated so roughly, all the complexities in Zhou Mei's heart disappeared.
It's even a bit laughable.
"Let go! Let go! Ugh~ I can't breathe." Zhou Mei said in a muffled voice, reaching out to pull Lin Qingshui's hand.
Seeing that she was more energetic, Lin Qingshui let go of her hand.
"What's wrong with you? Don't you want to work in the sauce factory?"
The latter sentence has a clearly teasing tone.
"Who doesn't want to work in the sauce factory? Don't talk nonsense." Zhou Mei bumped Lin Qingmu's waist with her elbow and glared at him.
