Being able to work as a helper in the Lin family is something that others would beg for. They don't have that much to do. The Lin family pays them such high wages, they just have to do the work assigned to them.
Lin Changping was watching over the yard, while Xu and Zhao Chunxi were in charge of making fish balls in the kitchen. They made a lot in just one day.
When Lin Changting and the others go to town tomorrow morning, they can just send it to Yipin Pavilion on the way, so it won’t cause any delay.
Lu Yanzhou had been studying at home since the day in town and hadn't visited the Lin family for several days. After hesitating for a while, he rushed to the Lin family.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw Lin Yunchu busy collecting the cabbages picked by the villagers. I hurried forward to help, and the basket of cabbages in Lin Yunchu's hand was suddenly empty.
When she turned around, she found that it was Lu Yanzhou who had arrived. She paused slightly. It was already this time today. If it were any other day, Lu Yanzhou would have come to the Lin family long ago.
This time, he didn't come for several days in a row. Even Lin's father and mother noticed something was wrong and asked Lin Yunchu about it.
Lin Yunchu chuckled and said that Lu Yanzhou would be taking part in the imperial examination in the spring of next year, so he naturally had to speed up his study.
Lin's father and mother didn't think much about it. It was normal to say so. After all, Lu Yanzhou's most important thing now was to prepare for next year's imperial examination, and he didn't need to help with other tasks.
Only Lin Yunchu felt a little strange in her heart. When she thought of what happened that day, she always felt a little uneasy, but she didn't seem to want to delve into it, so she kept busy with other things.
But when Lin Yunchu saw that Lu Yanzhou actually came to the Lin family, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Fortunately, there were many people delivering cabbage today. The inquiries from the visitors made Lin Yunchu come back to his senses quickly, and he hurriedly responded to the man.
With Lu Yanzhou's help, the two of them, one weighing the money and the other settling the payment, seemed to have worked together many times before, and their understanding was very good.
Or maybe it was because the two of them had been going back and forth to the town these days, and later they opened a shop and worked together for so long that they had already developed a sense of familiarity.
Before long, a small pile of cabbages formed in the Lin family's yard, and the number of people coming to deliver cabbages gradually decreased.
Lin Yunchu and Lu Yanzhou didn't say a word, but they coordinated well. After a while, they finally piled all the cabbages delivered today neatly under the eaves.
Just wait until later to finish making the fish balls and then make the kimchi together.
A few days ago, Lin Yunchu asked his father and Lin Qingshan to find a jar-making craftsman in a nearby village and customize a number of large jars.
They have all been cleaned and placed on one side of the Lin family's yard, and can be used directly when the time comes.
Lu Yanzhou was very nervous. He had been using the excuse of studying at home these days and had not been to the Lin family for a long time. In fact, it was after he returned to the Lu family that day.
After thinking about it carefully, he finally realized that something was wrong that day. He didn't know when he had unknowingly developed different feelings towards Lin Yunchu.
When he heard her asking about Xue Jingran that day, he suddenly felt jealous.
But this thought made him even more afraid to come to the Lin family. He always felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about facing Lin Yunchu. After all, he used to treat Lin Yunchu like his own sister.
Now how should he face Lin Yunchu and the Lin family? After he thought clearly about his feelings, although he felt much calmer, he was still a little afraid to come over.
Today he couldn't help but think of coming over quietly to take a look and then go back, but he didn't know that the Lin family was so busy, and he was a little annoyed.
He blamed his son for thinking too much. If he hadn't come today, Lin Yunchu didn't know how long he would have to work on these tasks by himself.
Lin Yunchu was thinking about what to do with the cabbages later, and had no idea that Lu Yanzhou's mind was already in a state of confusion, and he didn't know where he was wandering.
"Yun Chu, we've finished our work here. What should we do next?"
At some point, the helpers who had come to the yard to help make fish balls had already left, and Zhao Chunxi and his aunt Xu came out of the kitchen.
She didn't even take off her apron, and asked Lin Yunchu while wiping her hands.
The two men looked at the large amount of cabbage piled under the eaves and widened their eyes in shock. How many cabbages had been harvested today? Could it be that the families in the village had harvested all the cabbages in their own fields?
The Lin family's words had only been spread for half a day, and they had already sent so many. It seemed as if they were afraid that the Lin family would not accept them if they were a step late.
Hearing the voices, Lu Yanzhou came back to his senses. Seeing that the other members of the Lin family had also returned to the yard, he couldn't help but straighten his expression, as if afraid that others would notice something strange.
"Let's wash some of the cabbage first."
Lin Yunchu looked at the pile of cabbages under the eaves in front of him and couldn't help but feel secretly relieved.
Fortunately, the Lin family has a lot of manpower, otherwise it would take them forever just to deal with these cabbages.
When Lin Yunchu was making kimchi before, everyone in the Lin family had watched it a few times. Although they were not very familiar with it, they were able to help by following his instructions.
With Lin Yunchu directing the work, the job was done quite quickly. When Lin Changting and the others returned from the town, several jars had already been pickled.
"Okay, we'll just do the rest tomorrow."
Lin Yunchu stood up and pointed at the sealed jars and said to Lin Changting and Lin Changshun, "Move these jars inside."
After hearing what Lin Yunchu said, the two of them immediately nodded in understanding, stood up and prepared to move things. Lu Yanzhou and Lin Changping beside them also quickly stood up.
There weren't many pickled kimchis today. After counting carefully, there were only about six or seven jars. Lin Changting and the other three didn't have to work for long before they had all moved them into the house as Lin Yunchu had instructed.
Because the Lin family wanted to make fish balls, there were a lot of fish heads and bones left over. Lin Yunchu asked his aunt Xu to give a lot of them to the people who came to the Lin family to work as helpers.
Originally, those people were still a little hesitant. They all knew that the Lin family ate fish, but Lin Yunchu was a good cook and could make the fish, which was full of earthy smell, fragrant and delicious.
They didn't have the skills to cook it, and it would be a waste to take it back. They didn't know how to refuse. Later, Xu secretly taught them how to cook fish according to Lin Yunchu's instructions.
The few of them then looked as if they had suddenly realized something. Each of them took some fish heads and fish belly with meat, intending to go back and try to cook the fish according to the method Xu had just mentioned, to see if they could make a fish without the earthy smell.
If they can really make it, they will be able to eat the fish in the river in the future. Although the fish has many bones and a fishy smell, it is still meat.
