Chapter 21 Tomorrow's Money-Making Plan



"What's wrong? Tell me."

Lin Sen took out a box of red plum blossoms from his pocket and handed one to Lao Song.

"Um……"

"Never mind, Brother Lin, I'm fine now."

Under Lin Sen's gaze, after hesitating for a moment, Old Song awkwardly shook his head, then turned and got on his bicycle; "Brother Lin, I have something to do at home, so I'll head back first."

"Don't rush."

"It's not safe to walk at night."

Lin Sen immediately said, "Let's have dinner, then get some sleep, and go back tomorrow!"

"Brother Lin, it's alright, I brought a flashlight."

"Besides, my daughter is used to sleeping with her arms around mine. If I don't go back, she'll be too restless to sleep."

"You can eat, no need to send it to us."

Old Song waved to Lin Sen and immediately rode away on his bicycle.

"Okay, then be careful on the road."

Seeing that Lao Song was determined to leave, Lin Sen could only wave and watch him go.

Why didn't you invite him to stay for dinner?

Seeing Lin Sen walk back to the courtyard alone, Li Yueru immediately asked him suspiciously, "He brought us so many things, and we didn't even offer him a meal. That's so embarrassing."

"He insisted on leaving, and there was nothing I could do about it."

Lin Sen shrugged slightly: "It's alright, I'll treat him to a meal when I go to the city later."

"Okay, then."

Seeing that Lin Sen had his own plans, Li Yueru didn't say anything more.

"Are you eating?"

Li Yueru snorted and put a large chicken leg into Lin Sen's bowl.

"OK."

"You eat too."

Lin Sen smiled and tore off a piece of chicken breast, feeding it to Li Yueru.

"Um."

"Me, me."

"I can eat it myself."

Seeing the chicken breast Lin Sen offered, Li Yueru's face instantly turned bright red with embarrassment. She truly hadn't expected Lin Sen to be so bold as to feed her directly.

How could she possibly make such intimate gestures with Lin Sen!

"OK."

Seeing Li Yueru's extreme shyness, Lin Sen smiled and put the chicken breast into Li Yueru's bowl, and then gave Li Yueru a piece of old-fashioned egg cake.

"Have some cake too."

"You're pregnant, you need nutrition, eat more so it's good for the baby."

"Yes, thank you."

With her pretty face flushed, Li Yueru let out a soft hum, taking small bites of roast chicken and cake, feeling incredibly joyful and happy.

"Mom and Dad, you should eat too."

At this moment, Lin Sen, who was gnawing on a chicken leg, looked at Lin Jianguo and Zhan Xiufang.

"well."

Under Lin Sen's watchful gaze, watching Lin Sen being very affectionate with Li Yueru and treating her well, Lin Jianguo and Zhan Xiufang exchanged a glance, then happily began eating roast chicken and cake.

At this moment, they felt like they were dreaming.

Lin Sen, who had always treated Li Yueru coldly, never uttered a word except to ask for money, and only slammed doors and smashed things.

At this moment, it's as if he's become a completely different person.

He went from being a spendthrift son to a filial son and a good husband!

"Mom and Dad, on my way back just now, I passed through the city and saw that there was a temple fair going on there."

After dinner, Lin Sen wiped his lips and said, "Tomorrow morning, let's get up early and go to the ditch to catch some crayfish, small crabs, or small fish."

"Then I'll set up a stall at the temple fair."

Lin Sen's eyes darted around: "We should be able to make some money."

"Selling these foods at a stall?"

Upon hearing Lin Sen's words, Lin Jianguo looked at Lin Sen suspiciously: "Does anyone really eat it?"

"You'll know once you try."

Lin Sen shook his head with a wry smile.

After all, most people in 1984 were still struggling to make ends meet. So Lin Sen wasn't sure how much they would accept crayfish and small crabs.

After all, they are not like wealthy people like Old Li.

Wealthy people, tired of eating rich and heavy meals, will find it delicious to eat some spicy crayfish, spicy small crabs, fried small yellow croakers, and other wild game.

But for ordinary people, it's a different story.

"Most of us rural folks can't afford this kind of food."

"So if you set up a stall in the village, you definitely won't be able to sell anything."

Under the suspicious gazes of Lin Jianguo, Zhan Xiufang, and Li Yueru, Lin Sen shrugged slightly: "But city dwellers live much better lives, and they have plenty of food, so they might be able to accept it."

Anyway, give it a try.

"There should be a certain market for it."

Lin Sen took a sip of water and looked at his parents and wife.

If, after this street vending experiment, city dwellers show a high acceptance of crayfish and love to eat it, then Lin Sen will consider opening a crayfish restaurant.

However, if city dwellers don't buy much, Lin Sen will temporarily abandon this plan.

After all, in Lin Sen's memory, lobsters and crabs only became popular across the country after the millennium.

The situation was quite different in 1980 and 1984.

After all, most people in the millennium could eat meat freely.

In 1984, let alone the villagers, even working-class families in the city couldn't afford to eat meat every day!

"Okay, I'll do as you say. Tomorrow morning, your mom and I will go out to catch shrimp!"

Because Lin Sen had just earned a thousand yuan, Lin Jianguo said without hesitation under Lin Sen's gaze, "You've been working hard for several days. Sleep a little longer with Yue Ru. Your mother and I will have our fill of touching you."

"Dad, it's okay."

"I'm young and strong, I won't get tired."

Lin Sen shrugged slightly and smiled, his eyes sweeping over the gifts Lao Song had brought in the bag.

Two bottles of Simingshan brand Daqu liquor.
