Just as everyone was about to drool, Lu Zhixi finally brought out the plate.
The soybeans, stir-fried with various spices, smelled incredibly delicious. The moment the plate was placed down, several little paws stretched out.
Lu Zhixi slapped it down quickly, saying, "What's the rush? It's hot, wait a minute..."
She looked helplessly at the few pitiful eyes and shrugged, "Looking at me won't help. Let it cool down a bit before eating."
Fan Xiaofan showered her with compliments: "I have a sister-in-law who can do everything..."
Lu Zhixi glanced up at her and said, "Looking at me is useless. You can't eat it until it cools down."
Fan Xiaofan pouted angrily and lay on the table, pondering how to quickly cool down the scalding hot fried soybeans. He first asked Lu Zhixi to bring out another bowl and put them in separate bowls, and then found some newspapers to fan them, but the efficiency was still very low.
Finally, his eyes lit up, and he went to fetch a basin of water. He then put the bowl of soybeans into the water, and the temperature dropped instantly.
Lu Zhixi couldn't help but shake her head and laugh: "You really do put what you've learned to good use..."
Fan Xiaofan wore a slightly proud expression, looking quite pleased with himself...
When the bowl was taken out of the water again, the soybeans still contained some calories, but they were ready to be eaten happily...
While eating soybeans, Fan Xiaofan chatted with Lu Zhixi: "I've seen the phone call, and I have some plans in mind..."
Lu Zhixi understood that this meant another long trip, since there were no factories in their small county that made the parts for the telephone. She nodded and said, "I'll take care of Xiaotuanzi here."
Fu Weidong exclaimed, forgetting all about eating his soybeans, and grabbed Fan Xiaofan, refusing to let go: "Sister, I can go too! I've learned so much now, I can help out..."
Fan Xiaofan nodded helplessly at his little head: "But didn't Shi Zhiqing come up with a new plan for you? Are you going to let him defeat you?"
Fu Weidong pouted angrily, his resolve hardening. Sooner or later, he would beat Shi Lingheng so badly he couldn't stand up anymore, and then he could stay by the fairy sister's side forever...
Dog Egg asked cutely, "Will Brother Xiao Dong stay in the village again? That's great..."
Fu Weidong: "..."
Kid, you're poking at my wound.
Because he had plans for the phone call, Fan Xiaofan did not stay at Xiangyang Brigade for long and returned to the textile factory the next day.
Factory Director Fang was relieved that Fan Xiaofan had finally resolved her troubles, but the details of the matter seemed to involve her family, so he didn't know how to explain it. He simply patted her on the shoulder, happy that she could return to work.
"Go and say hello to your colleagues in the technical office; they've all been very worried about you..."
Fan Xiaofan smiled broadly, nodded, and then went to the technical office. The moment she opened the door, she saw everyone inside engrossed in their books. She nodded dismissively, "Looks like you haven't forgotten to work hard since I left. You're all very diligent..."
"Xiao Fan..."
"Xiao Fan..."
"You're back?"
Everyone jumped up abruptly, the chairs creaking as they spoke in surprise.
Fan Xiaofan waved with a smile, then said, "I brought everyone a gift to calm their nerves, but it's a special recipe made by my sister-in-law, and it's incredibly delicious..."
She took out the soybeans wrapped in paper, carefully opened them, and instantly, the aroma filled the entire office.
