Sesame candy is really delicious, sweet and fragrant." Zhou Zhou opened a candy and put it in his mouth and started chewing it.
"Mom, the method you taught me yesterday was really good. I didn't get scolded, and Xiaohu took the blame. The key point was that Grandma Liu also scolded Zhou Lin." Zhou Zhou smiled happily at her mother, with the brightest smile on her face.
"So you have to use your brain more. If you make a mistake, you have to find a way to put the blame on others. This also requires skill, you know?" Zhang Hui taught Zhou Zhou shamelessly.
"Okay, I get it, Mom. I think you're so smart. How did you know Xiaohu would be fooled?" Zhou Zhou looked at Zhang Hui with admiration.
"Let me ask you what is Xiaohu's greatest characteristic?" Zhang Hui did not directly answer Zhou Zhou's question, but threw out the question and let her think about it herself.
"Hmm...Greedy!"
"Oh right. Xiaohu doesn't know what ginseng tastes like. If you lie to him and say it's delicious, he'll definitely want to try it. So remember his weak spot in case you don't know what to do."
"Yeah, Mom knows."
Seeing Zhou Zhou's teachable look, Zhang Hui nodded with satisfaction. "Don't go through Zhou Lin's things carelessly in the future. This time you found her things but she didn't touch them, so you got away with it. If you go through her things again next time and she catches you on the spot, it will be hard to explain."
...
...
"Okay. I know. I saw her secretly hiding a beautiful box under the tea bed, so I wanted to see what was inside. It turned out to be two big white radishes. Those big white radishes are really not tasty!"
Zhou Zhou took the box out from under the bed and put it in front of Zhou Lin. After opening the box, he saw the ginseng. He took a bite and put it back because it was unpalatable. But when Zhang Hui saw it, she panicked.
Then Zhang Hui called Xiaohu in, told him that the things in the box were delicious, and asked Xiaohu not to touch the box.
Xiaohu was not an obedient person. The more Zhang Hui told him not to move, the more he wanted to eat. While Zhang Hui and Zhou Zhou were away, he took two ginsengs and hid away.
Zhang Hui quickly stuffed the box back under Zhou Lin's bed. Zhou Zhou thought it would look bad if there was nothing in the box, so he found two radishes and put them in.
"What big white radish? That's ginseng! It's very valuable! But this time it's all thanks to you that I taught Xiao Hu and Zhou Lin a lesson."
"Mom is awesome! I'm awesome too!"
"Okay, that's it. Don't mention it again, okay?"
Zhang Hui didn't want to talk about this anymore, so she asked Zhou Zhou to keep quiet.
Zhou Lin was very mad at this moment. She was sure to suffer this loss. It was enough to have a mother who could not distinguish right from wrong! But the more important thing now was where could she get two large ginsengs to compensate Ye Li. She didn't know any friends in the Northeast.
Just when I was worrying, the roar of a motorcycle was heard outside the house.
"Zhou Lin, come out for a moment." Nie Fan shouted towards the window of Zhou Lin's house.
“Here I come.”
Seeing Nie Fan coming, Zhou Lin's eyes lit up. She rushed over and asked, "Nie Fan, do you know where I can get ginseng? I want wild old ginseng."
"That's why I came here. I heard from my sister that you lost the ginseng. What happened?"
"Don't mention it. I originally thought that it was my Zhou Zhou who lost it, but who knew that Xiaohu took it and ate it himself." Zhou Lin's heart bleeds when he mentioned this matter.
"No way. Are you going to eat it raw?"
Hearing Nie Fan's focus, Zhou Lin rolled his eyes at him.
"Don't mention it. Help me figure out what to do. I've offended Boss Wang. I have to find a way to make up for it." Zhou Lin looked at Nie Fan for help.
"Don't worry. I know where to get it. But we have to wait a few days. When the ginseng arrives, I will go with you to explain it to Boss Wang."
As soon as Nie Fan finished speaking, Zhou Lin excitedly held Nie Fan's hand. She didn't know how to thank Nie Fan. He was really her lucky star.
Nie Fan was stunned when Zhou Lin suddenly held his hand, and then a smile appeared on his lips. Nie Fan also held Zhou Lin's hand tightly, and rubbed his fingers on the back of Zhou Lin's hand gently a few times, carefully.
At this moment, Zhou Lin's heart was full of gratitude towards Nie Fan, and he did not notice the little movements of Nie Fan's hands.
After Zhou Lin thanked Nie Fan, she let go of Nie Fan's hand. Nie Fan felt the strength in his hand loosen, so he also let go of Zhou Lin's hand.
"Okay, don't worry. Come on, I'll take you to the factory. My sister has something to ask us two." After Nie Fan finished speaking, he lifted his leg and stepped onto the motorcycle, reaching out to pull Zhou Lin to sit in the back.
"Wait." Zhou Lin turned around and went into the house.
After Zhou Lin came out, she stretched out her hand in front of Nie Fan. On her palm was the remains of a ginseng that had been half-eaten by Xiaohu.
"What does this mean?" Nie Fan didn't know what Zhou Lin meant.
"Such good ginseng has been wasted, but there is still half a piece left, which should be very nutritious. You can take it back and stew the chicken, so it won't be wasted." Zhou Lin said with a sly look in his eyes.
"Zhou Lin! Are you kidding me? Take it away quickly. Is this how you thank your savior?" Nie Fan's face immediately turned dark after hearing this. Is Zhou Lin trying to get rid of a beggar?
"Haha, I was just kidding you. I'll take the evidence to show to Sister Ye Li. Proof that I didn't embezzle." Zhou Lin saw that Nie Fan was a little angry, so she stopped teasing him. She put half of the ginseng in her pocket and sat on the back seat of the motorcycle.
"Hold on tight! I'll drive very fast!" Nie Fan said as he stepped on the accelerator and rushed out of the courtyard.
Although Zhou Lin didn't say anything, she was scared in her heart. Seeing Nie Fan riding his motorcycle around in the alley at such a fast speed, she unconsciously reached out and grabbed Nie Fan's clothes.
Nie Fan sensed something strange behind him. He grabbed Zhou Lin's arm behind his back and then wrapped Zhou Lin's arm around his waist.
"This way you won't be thrown off by me. Just pulling at your clothes won't help."
Nie Fan's actions and words were all very frank, which made Zhou Lin feel no embarrassment or discomfort. Although Zhou Lin didn't like to be touched by the opposite sex, she didn't have any inner resistance this time. She hugged Nie Fan's waist tightly, fearing that she would be thrown off.
The smile on Nie Fan's lips became even more intense...
Arriving at the factory, Zhou Lin explained to Ye Li about the missing ginseng. Ye Li did not blame Zhou Lin, as he knew the situation at Zhou Lin's home. Zhou Zhou and Zhou Lin shared a room, which was inconvenient. Plus, the spoiled little tiger was even more troublesome.
"Zhou Lin, have you ever considered moving out? Once the factory dormitory is built, I can prepare a single room for you." Ye Li asked Zhou Lin for his opinion.
"That's good. It saves you the trouble of having two children at home all the time." Nie Fan immediately raised his hand in agreement when he heard it.
"Let me think about it. I haven't really thought about moving out."
"Okay. Tell me if you've made up your mind. There's one more thing I want to tell you two. Last time, Zhao Ziming received our inventory of cloth and has been reluctant to make the follow-up payment. I have discussed with Director Liu and decided to stop producing cloth for him. Our previous cooperation ends here. You two should not discuss business with him for the time being." Ye Li informed Nie Fan and Zhou Lin.
"I see. I never thought there was something fishy about Zhao Ziming's delay in signing the contract!"
"Sister Ye Li, I met a very special person on the way to Hai City this time. I want you to meet him." Zhou Lin thought of a gay man she met on the train this time.
