Chapter 18 The Lunch Boxes Became a Hit



She's heartbroken, but she's out of gold coins and can't exchange them!

Heartbroken! Utterly heartbroken...

Leave the space, go back to bed, cover your head and go to sleep. If you don't look at it, you won't feel upset!

The next day, Lin Li woke up as soon as the alarm clock on the table rang. The first thing she did after getting up was to practice her internal energy three times, and then she went to the courtyard and performed a set of martial arts.

Seeing that Lin Laosan was still asleep, she went to the kitchen to prepare to make steamed buns, mantou, and millet porridge for breakfast.

After quickly proofing the dough, mince the pork, add chives, seasonings, and a little spring water to quickly prepare the filling.

A fragrant aroma of meat mixed with chives wafted out. So delicious! Lin Li took a deep breath; the smell was amazing!

"Mom, what are you making? It smells so good!"

As soon as Lin Laosan stepped outside, he smelled the enticing aroma and, while brushing his teeth, moved closer to Lin Li.

"For breakfast, we have steamed buns, mantou (steamed bread), and millet porridge!"

While answering Lin Laosan's question, he put the filling into the risen dough. The millet porridge was already bubbling up, and the first batch of steamed buns and mantou were almost ready to be served.

After wrapping the buns and putting them back in the steamer, Lin Li took out milk and water from her spatial storage. "Remember to drink them!"

Lin Laosan, carrying two bottles in one hand and brushing his teeth with the other, went back to speed up his washing up.

After he finished washing up, steamed buns, mantou, and porridge were already laid out on the wooden table in the main room.

"Come and eat, you have to rush to work after you finish eating."

"Um!"

Lin Laosan immediately sat down at the table, holding a steamed bun in one hand and a bowl of millet porridge in the other, and began to drink.

"So...delicious, so incredibly delicious!"

Lin Laosan ate three large meat buns, two steamed buns, and three bowls of porridge. After finishing, he grinned and said, "Mom, this is your cooking!" He gave Lin Li a thumbs up.

This made her burst into laughter!

"Mom, I'm going to work!"

Lin Laosan checked the time; it was getting late. He picked up the milk and spatial water from the table and prepared to run outside.

"You've just eaten, don't run around, you'll get appendicitis, it can be fatal."

Upon hearing Lin Li's words, Lin Laosan immediately stopped, turned around, and looked at her with a simple smile, saying, "I know! I'll walk slowly, I won't run anymore!"

"Take the bus, your health is the most important thing!"

"good!"

Lin Laosan obediently walked slowly toward the bus stop.

Watching his departing figure, Lin Li became anxious again. She still couldn't get the industrial tickets and couldn't buy a bicycle.

She still needs to make money quickly; she wants to rebuild the house!

After putting all the steamed buns, mantou, and porridge from the steamer into the space, and cleaning up the courtyard, he pushed the cart out to earn money again!

After several days, Lin Li's lunchbox stall became a hit.

It's super popular, incredibly popular, extremely popular!

This also attracted many followers who set up stalls in the machinery factory, either selling more goods or offering lower prices than her.

Lin Li remained unmoved. No matter how much you compete, your taste will never be as good as hers.

You can tell from the length of the queue at her stall.

This sudden surge in popularity also attracted the attention of others, such as Lin Lao Er and his wife.

“Your mom’s little push cart is really popular now. They say she can easily earn 50 yuan a day.”

"One hundred yuan a day?"

When Lin Lao Er heard his wife say this, his eyes widened. How could she make so much money? 50 yuan a day, more than his monthly salary.

50 yuan a day, that's 1500 yuan a month! My God! I can't even imagine!!!

"When do you think your mom will forgive us?"

Lin Lao Er's wife also figured it out, and her eyes lit up. With 1,500 yuan a month, she would never use domestic cosmetics again. Her face deserved better!

"That old hag has changed a lot. She's very difficult to talk to and likes to hit people," Lin Lao Er said resentfully, touching his face, which wasn't fully healed yet.

"Sigh...that's true!" Lin Lao Er's wife sighed, then her eyes darted around. "Do you think if we take your son, her grandson, to beg her, will she forgive us?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Lao Er's eyes lit up. Remembering how much his grandmother used to dote on her grandson, he nodded. "Take him back this weekend to try him out, but you have to teach that kid well. He must perform well. Whether we can turn things around this time depends entirely on him."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely teach him properly!"

As they talked, they dreamed about the future, becoming more and more excited, as if the money was already in their pockets.

Lin Li, who was still working hard to earn money, had no idea that they were eyeing her money again. But even if she knew, she would just spit on them.

She wasn't the original owner of this body, so her son and grandson were just fluff to her. Besides, her grandson had been raised by the second son's parents to have no respect for the original owner, and had always bossed her around since childhood. He was a born bad seed.

After selling the last boxed lunch of the day, Lin Li packed up her cart and headed towards the supply and marketing cooperative. The day before yesterday, after selling all the boxed lunches, she went to give a reply to the sales clerk.

As an apology for taking up so much of their time, I gave the salesperson a silk scarf.

The sales clerk was so happy that she almost called her godmother.

She asked the sales clerk if she could buy a bicycle, but she didn't have an industrial invoice.

The sales clerk immediately said she would try to find a solution. When she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things again yesterday, the sales clerk secretly told her that she had industrial invoices, but the other party wanted 50 yuan.

Lin Li agreed and they arranged to pay for and pick up the car today.

Pushing the handcart to the gate of the supply and marketing cooperative, she stopped the handcart at the entrance and saw the clerk quickly walk up to her and take out an industrial invoice from his pocket.

Lin Li smiled and accepted the money, handing over 50 yuan and then giving the cashier 10 yuan, saying, "This 10 yuan is a small token of the aunt's appreciation, please accept it!"

The saleswoman beamed, "Auntie, you're even closer to me than my own mother!"

Lin Li smiled and followed her into the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Auntie, the bicycle is ready for you. You can just pay now!"

The salesperson pointed to the Phoenix brand bicycle placed in the corner, "A 18-inch lightweight bicycle, 188 yuan."

Lin Li nodded, then pointed to the tape recorder on the counter, "Is this a new arrival today?"

Following Lin Li's finger, the sales clerk's smile widened. "New stock just arrived today, Aerospace brand tape recorders, 300 yuan each."

"No industrial tickets, please!"

"don't want."

"Okay, then get me one."

Lin Li handed over 488 yuan and an industrial invoice. The clerk immediately issued the invoice, and after she paid, he politely bowed and saw her out of the supply and marketing cooperative.

Alas! It's a pity that the old lady's son is unwilling to date; otherwise, she could have gained even more benefits after they became in-laws.
