Li Tiehua, who had been somewhat idle, now had an outlet for his frustrations.
She immediately told her neighbors about her daughter's deeds.
The way he flaunted his daughter was no less impressive than Old Man Lin's.
The neighbors were quite surprised to see Li Tiehua, who used to favor sons over daughters, now acting like a doting father.
However, since Director Wan had brought several packs of instant noodles that morning, they all believed Li Tiehua's words.
To prove that what she said was true, Li Tiehua even opened a pack of instant noodles and made a bite for each of her neighbors.
These seasonings that Lin Xue disliked were immediately praised as wonderful by the aunties and grandmas.
In the end, not only were there no noodles left in the bowl, but not even a drop of soup remained.
Meanwhile, the neighbors noticed that the Lin family, a couple known for their preference for sons over daughters, seemed to have suddenly become doting fathers to their daughters without anyone noticing.
These days, when you run into this couple, all they talk about is how great their daughter is.
It's rare to hear the couple mention their two sons' jobs anymore.
Your neighbors are naturally the ones who pay the most attention to you, because they have noticed the changes in the Lin family and know that the Lin family's daughter is no longer the same as before and is now very successful.
Therefore, many families harbored ulterior motives and secretly harbored designs on the second son of the Lin family.
If Lin Laoda didn't already have a girlfriend, he probably wouldn't have escaped the enthusiastic greetings from these aunties and grandmas.
After finishing up her work at the food factory, Lin Xue was immediately appointed as a consultant for the food factory.
Many factory managers, having heard of her, came in groups to see her.
Finally, Lin Xue became somewhat familiar to the factory directors in Suzhou.
By the time Lin Xue packed her bags and prepared to head back, a week had already passed.
Knowing that Lin Xue was going back to Northeast China, many factory managers gave her some of their factory's specialties.
Even the machine factory gave her a set of tools. Lin Xue had no choice but to pick out some things that she could use at home, pack them up, and send them back to Gujia Village.
She left the rest at Old Lin's house.
The day before she left, even her grandparents and uncle's family from the countryside came to the city to say goodbye.
Compared to the cold and lonely feeling of leaving Suzhou the first time, this time a group of more than twenty people came to see them off.
The scene was so startling that train station staff had to come and control the situation.
Fortunately, Director Wan had some connections, which prevented the situation from spiraling out of control.
At the same time, Lin Xue saw the woman who had helped them with their sleeper tickets before.
The woman had initially come over just to watch the commotion, but when she saw that the person surrounded was Lin Xue, she immediately recognized the young girl.
She later confirmed with Director Wu and found that she didn't have any such two relatives. Although she had received the benefits, she was inevitably a little unhappy.
But when she saw Lin Xue again, the woman's mindset changed once more.
It seems that things are not as Director Wu said; she does not have these two relatives.
Rather, she was worried that he would try to curry favor with her two relatives, so she deliberately lied to him.
Lin Xue was unaware that her two appearances had created an enemy for Director Wu, whom she had never met before.
When Lin Xue returned to Northeast China, the same smiling man was there to pick her up.
When Lin Xue saw Gu Heping again, she noticed that the man's demeanor had changed somewhat.
Although Gu Heping was also sunny and handsome before, he still had some of the insecurity that comes with being a man from the countryside.
But this time, Lin Xue saw him again.
Although he wore the same smile, the air he exuded as he walked had a rather confident and swaggering feel to it.
Lin Xue felt that Gu Heping was more manly now than before.
She handed over the package, and as she let go, her fingers unconsciously traced a line in the other person's palm.
This immediately changed the way Gu Heping looked at her.
"Let's go, I took the day off specifically so I can spend some quality time with you!"
Gu Heping emphasized the words "accompany you" with extra force, making Lin Xue immediately understand his meaning.
"Alright, stop joking around. Let's go back quickly. I'm exhausted these past two days!"
Lin Xue glared at Gu Heping with annoyance, then quickly walked a few steps ahead of him.
As soon as Lin Xue exited the train station, she saw a large truck parked outside.
She recognized it as a transport vehicle at a glance; she was surprised that this man could actually drive one out.
"It seems Comrade Gu Heping already has a driver's license? I wonder if I would have the honor of sitting in your passenger seat?"
Lin Xue stood in front of the truck, looking at Gu Heping with a teasing expression.
"It would be my great honor!"
Gu Heping opened the truck door, helped Lin Xue into the cab first, and then walked to the driver's seat himself.
"Not bad, Comrade Gu Heping, you've already mastered your craft so quickly?"
Sitting in the passenger seat, I felt the bumpy road.
Lin Xue felt her heart pounding along with the car, and her left hand instinctively went to her chest to prevent her breasts from jumping too much.
"Don't you even know who I am?"
"My mentor has already taken me on two short trips, and he said he'll take me on the next long trip too!"
Men love their cars as much as they love their wives. Ever since Gu Heping got behind the wheel, he felt like he had almost reached the pinnacle of his life.
Now I have my beloved car and my beautiful wife by my side.
A sense of pride welled up in Gu Heping's heart.
Along the way, the two exchanged a brief conversation about their respective situations. When they arrived in Liulin Town, the eldest son of the Gu family had already stopped his donkey cart in front of the post office.
"Wife, I'll take the car back to the transport team first, and then we'll take the oxcart back later!"
It wasn't that Gu Heping didn't want to drive the car directly back to the village, but such a ostentatious display wouldn't be good for his reputation.
Therefore, after returning to Liulin Town, Gu Heping had no choice but to keep a low profile.
When Lin Xue returned after sending the vehicle back to the transport team, she found that the returned package had already been loaded onto the oxcart.
On the way back, Lin Xue and Gu Heping sat in an oxcart, driven by Gu's eldest brother.
The three chatted casually along the way until they returned to the Gu family home, where she was immediately surrounded by about ten members of the Gu family in the main room.
Even Gu Lao Er, who works at the meat processing plant, rushed back ahead of time.
Lin Xue then briefly recounted some of the things that had happened to her in Suzhou.
She even showed the Gu family the work permit that the Suzhou Food Factory had given her.
Although it was just a nominal position, Lin Xue was rarely needed unless there was something the factory couldn't handle.
Moreover, Lin Xue's role as consultant was only a part-time job where she received bonuses but no salary, but fortunately, she still received some benefits during holidays.
