"Mom, what kind of person do you take your son for?"
Wang Qian said with a mix of laughter and tears, "Xiaoyu is so gentle and virtuous, so good to me, and so filial to you and Dad. Even with her big belly, she's still helping out. I just hate that I'm not capable enough to give her the best."
"It's good that you think that way!"
Lu Aihua smiled with relief, "Then you should go quickly, don't let your wife overwork herself."
"Okay, Mom, you go and rest now!"
Wang Qian nodded gratefully and immediately went to the kitchen.
Inside the kitchen.
Lin Xiaoyu, who was roasting green peppers, smiled faintly.
She also overheard Wang Qian and Lu Aihua's conversation in the other room.
At that moment, she felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction and sweetness.
Originally, she just wanted to do better and hoped to be worthy of Wang Qian, hoping that he wouldn't dislike her.
So no matter how busy or tired she was, she always persevered.
As it turns out, everything she did was worth it!
Wang Qian not only didn't despise her, but also felt guilty towards her and cared about her so much.
This was something she could only dream about!
But now, it has actually become a reality.
The more she thought about it, the more moved she became, and tears involuntarily streamed down her face.
Just then, Wang Qian, who had come to the kitchen, saw the tears on her cheeks.
"Xiaoyu, what's wrong?"
Wang Qian rushed over, his face full of concern. "Are you feeling unwell? Or did I do something wrong to upset you?"
As he spoke, he reached out his hand, ready to slap himself twice.
Lin Xiaoyu was startled and quickly grabbed his hand. "What are you doing?"
"Xiaoyu, I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have left you to work in the kitchen all by yourself until now!"
Wang Qian said with immense self-reproach, "You should go and rest. I'll take care of the rest... Oh no, I'll help you to rest, and I'll come back and do it."
Before Lin Xiaoyu could answer, he snatched the green pepper skewers from her hand, put them in a bowl next to her, and then helped her walk towards the bedroom.
"Don't do this!"
Lin Xiaoyu grabbed Wang Qian's arm, choking back tears, and said, "I'm not feeling unwell, and it's still early, I can..."
"no!"
Wang Qian insisted, "You must rest. I'll take care of these things!"
"Really, you don't need it!"
Lin Xiaoyu shook her head. "You can't make this kind of roasted green pepper sauce."
"I……"
Wang Qian was speechless.
Indeed, although he was willing to take over Lin Xiaoyu's job, he had no idea how well the green peppers should be roasted, what ingredients were needed, or how much of each ingredient should be used.
"Please don't try to send me away again!"
Lin Xiaoyu added, "I cried just now not because I was sad or upset."
"Why is that?"
Wang Qian was taken aback.
Didn't they all cry because they felt wronged?
Why aren't you sad or upset yet?
"It's because I was moved!"
Lin Xiaoyu wiped away her tears, feeling both shy and embarrassed, and said, "I heard everything you said to Mom!"
"Uh...did you hear that?"
This time, it was Wang Qian's turn to be embarrassed.
What he just said to his mother was truly from the bottom of his heart.
But as he spoke, he forgot that their house wasn't very soundproof.
"As long as you have me in your heart, no matter how hard or tiring it is, I feel it's all worth it."
Lin Xiao was overjoyed, "Besides, it's not heavy work, and I want to help you with more things."
"Well... okay!"
Wang Qian hesitated for a moment, but finally compromised.
However, he then added, "But I'll do it; you can sit next to me and teach me."
"But can you do it?"
Lin Xiaoyu said cautiously, "These delicate tasks require a lot of patience, otherwise the taste will be different."
"You look down on your man, don't you?"
Wang Qian reached out and pinched Lin Xiaoyu's soft cheek, pretending to be angry, and said, "I'm going to make it taste better than my wife's. I won't let my wife lift a finger. I want her to just watch from the sidelines."
"You're... utterly wicked!"
Lin Xiaoyu was filled with shame and indignation.
At that moment, her heart almost melted.
She and Wang Qian had been married for over a year, but only now did she realize for the first time that she and Wang Qian were truly husband and wife.
Two people are working towards the same goal;
Occasionally, they would joke around and tease each other.
When the mood strikes, you can even...
Anyway, this feeling is really great!
Next, she sat beside him and taught Wang Qian how to grill green peppers, what ingredients to add, how to marinate them, and so on.
Each step is taught step by step.
Wang Qian studied very diligently and did not slack off at all.
In addition, he was naturally intelligent, and it didn't take long for his technique to become skillful.
By 10 p.m., he could almost finish it all by himself.
Even if Lin Xiaoyu wanted to deliberately find fault, she wouldn't know where to begin.
"Xiaoyu, you should rest!"
Wang Qian put down a bowl of freshly marinated roasted green pepper sauce. "I can make the rest myself. You need to go and rest now."
"But didn't you say during the day that you were going to pickle a thousand boxes?"
Lin Xiaoyu said worriedly, "We've only pickled a little over a hundred boxes so far. If we don't hurry..."
"Business is business, and money is money, but if it ruins your health, I'd rather not do this business and not make this money!"
Ignoring Lin Xiaoyu's objections, Wang Qian forcibly helped her into the bedroom.
This time, Lin Xiaoyu did not refuse.
However, she felt so sweet inside that it seemed to overflow.
In a daze, she was helped into the bedroom by Wang Qian.
He lifted the covers and lay down, then covered her with the blanket and gave her a light kiss on the forehead before turning to leave.
"No matter how tired I am tomorrow, I will finish marinating the 1,000 boxes of roasted green pepper sauce he requested. I can't become a burden to him!"
Watching Wang Qian's departing figure, Lin Xiaoyu secretly made a vow.
...
Soon, Wang Qian returned to the kitchen.
Lin Xiaoyu is about to give birth and definitely needs more rest, but he can't.
He has to get what he needs to do done.
However,
Despite working overtime until midnight and becoming increasingly skilled at marinating and roasting green pepper sauce, he only managed to make a few dozen boxes.
"This can't go on!"
Wang Qian did not continue.
Making marinated roasted green pepper sauce is, after all, a manual task; the steps are not only tedious but also slow.
If this business can continue for a long time, Lin Xiaoyu will definitely not be able to handle it all by herself.
Most importantly, he didn't want Lin Xiaoyu to be too overworked.
"Huh? I've got it!"
As his thoughts raced, a brilliant idea suddenly struck him, and he came up with a perfect solution.
