"Good night, wife."

"Just hold me for ten minutes, keep an eye on the time."

After saying this while resisting the overwhelming sleepiness, Yun Mo fell headfirst into Zhou Gong's dream.

Ling Chuan stared at his wife's delicate and peaceful sleeping face. When it was almost 10 minutes, he slowly closed his eyes, but he did not loosen his hands around his wife.

It's not that he didn't listen to his wife, but he fell asleep accidentally.

Well, he's really smart.

—

Time flies and it is already mid-April.

On the morning of the 15th, after sending Yunmo to catch the tram, Lingchuan accompanied Huang Zhiqiu to the train station to pick up the goods.

The last batch of 3,000 rice dumpling boxes were sent out from Anshi two days ago.

Over the past six months, Lingchuan had traveled back and forth between Jiang City and Urumqi several times to pick up and transport goods. He had become familiar with the people at the train station and could easily pick up the goods by simply giving them a pack of cigarettes worth 20 yuan.

After coming out of the train station, Ling Chuan accompanied Huang Zhiqiu to Ronghua Food Factory to deliver the goods.

After delivering the goods, Huang Zhiqiu went to the finance office to collect the total payment of 25,800 yuan with the receipt and order contract. Only then did he feel relieved.

In the evening, Yun Mo returned home from evening self-study and saw the rich food on the dining table. She immediately guessed that the delivery of the rice dumpling boxes must have been completed.

"Momo, don't just stand there, go wash your hands and then you can eat something."

"Um."

The food was prepared by Huang Zhiqiu and was very Anshi-style.

There are brown sugar rice cakes, sesame rolls, rice dumplings, salted beef, and braised chicken feet. A large plate of each is made, which can be eaten by the whole family for many days.

Ling Jiang ate and laughed, "Mother-in-law, you've worked so hard to make so many delicious dishes for us."

Huang Zhiqiu smiled and said, "You can keep the brown sugar rice cakes and sesame rolls for a few more days. You and Xiaoling can bring some with you when you go to work. You can take them out and fill your stomach when you are hungry."

"Yeah, okay!"

Yun Mo was quite happy eating at the beginning, but as she ate more she felt that the food had no taste.

Huang Zhiqiu specially prepared such a large table of delicious food, not only for celebration, but also probably because he was going back to Anshi.

Huang Zhiqiu waited until Yun Mo finished eating before calling her into the room to talk.

"Momo, I have received all the payment for the rice dumpling boxes. This 18,500 is the money you paid for setting up the factory. Please check it."

Yun Mo took the heavy cloth bag, opened it, took a look, and put it aside. "Mom, no need to order. How can I not trust you?"

Huang Zhiqiu said angrily: "Although I won't harm you, what if I count too few?"

"It's okay if it's less. Just consider it as my filial piety to you."

"You are a child. Sometimes you are very smart, and sometimes you are stupid."

Yun Mo didn't comment. "My cleverness is only for outsiders. It would be too boring if I were to be so fussy about my own people."

Huang Zhiqiu was helpless, "I can't argue with you, just make your own ideas."

Yun Mo held the other's arm in dependence, "Mom, are you going back?"

"What do you think? I was supposed to stay for a week, but it's already been half a month. I still have to go back and pay the workers."

"Okay, Mom, which day do you plan to buy the ticket? I'll ask Ling Chuan to buy it for you tomorrow."

"I've already bought it this afternoon, and I'll leave at noon the day after tomorrow."

“So soon?”

Huang Zhiqiu helped her tuck the loose hair behind her ears with a gentle look in his eyes. "Momo, there are not many days left until the college entrance examination. You should do your best. I am looking forward to holding a graduation banquet for you."

"Although studying is important, you also have to take care of your health. If you ruin your health, it doesn't matter how high your grades are."

"Yeah, I understand."

The next morning, as soon as Yun Mo entered the classroom and sat down, Xie Xia took out a pink paper bag from her desk pocket and handed it to her.

"My mother improved the recipe and baking process according to your suggestions. This is a new product that came out yesterday. How about you try it?"

After the two of them became deskmates this semester, Yun Mo would bring breakfast to Xie Xia from time to time. As a gift of reciprocity, Xie Xia would bring some of the company's new snacks and desserts to Yun Mo.

Every time Yunmo tastes a new product, she will give appropriate comments and suggestions.

Often, the suggestions Yunmo gives casually can always improve the taste and texture of desserts or snacks by more than one level.

"Sister Xia, I'll eat tomorrow. I've eaten too much sweets these past two days, and my throat is a little greasy."

As she spoke, Yun Mo folded the handbag and put it into her schoolbag.

Xie Xia nodded, "Auntie, are you going back to Anshi?"

"Yes, the train at noon tomorrow."

Yun Mo was a little melancholy. "Tell me, if I ask Mr. Zhong for a day off tomorrow, will he agree?"

“It’s hard to say.”

Normally, for a student with good grades like Yun Mo, it is not difficult to take a leave.

The problem is that Yun Mo has taken more leave and for more days than everyone else in the class combined, which gives Zhong Weimin a headache.

No matter what, she would take the leave even if she got scolded.

During the break, Yun Mo stubbornly found Zhong Weimin and explained the reason for her leave.

Unexpectedly, Zhong Weimin was not angry at all. Instead, he agreed in a friendly manner.

Perhaps seeing her confusion, Zhong Weimin explained with some emotion, "Yun Mo, your mother came to the school to see me a few days ago. She is very concerned about your studies and told me about the situation at home.

Yunmo, although I value your grades, I also value your character and cultivation. You are kind and optimistic, filial and polite. I am proud to have a student like you.

Your mother rarely comes to Jiang City, so go and see her off tomorrow."

These words made Yun Mo's eyes tear up.

She saluted him gratefully, "Teacher Zhong, thank you!"

"Don't just talk about it. The second mock exam is coming up soon. You should be in the top five in the city, right?"

The tears that had just welled up in Yun Mo's eyes immediately shrank back, "...I'll try my best."

The next day, after breakfast, Yun Mo began to pack the specialties that she had asked Lingchuan to buy into cartons, preparing to go to the post office to mail them.

Huang Zhiqiu couldn't carry too many things on the train alone, which was inconvenient.

"Oh, Momo, this is too much. Why do I feel like I'm not here to deliver goods, but to purchase goods?"

There were eight large cardboard boxes on the ground, three of which contained things bought by Yun Mo, and the other five were sent by the Xie, Zeng and Deng families.

Yun Mo sealed the carton while smiling, "Not much, most of them are snacks, take them back and share them with everyone, and keep some for yourself, there won't be much left."

Huang Zhiqiu was a little worried. "I didn't bring anything here, but I received so many gifts. I feel embarrassed."

"Mom, don't think too much. People give you gifts because of me. I will return the favor."

"How can you return so many gifts?"
