The day of rebirth and elopement: caught by the military officer husband
Chapter 17 Family Mobilization
"Mom, I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself in front of you." Lin Xiaoxue looked apologetic.
At this moment, Angel's mother shook her head and sighed, "That's because the Lin family doesn't know how to be grateful. If I had a good daughter like you, I would have pampered her long ago. What about those black-hearted people?"
Lin Xiaoxue said calmly but firmly, "I'm sorry for causing trouble for the family. But if we hit the snake at its weakest point today, it should be quiet for a year or two."
"Humph!" Mother Lu sneered, "We are a family and we don't talk behind each other's backs. Even if they don't want you, our Lu family's door will always be open to you."
"If they dare to come, I will beat them out with a broom next time."
Lin Xiaoxue was somewhat touched: "Thank you, Mom."
Mother Lu patted her hands and said, "Good girl, you have suffered so much these years. You should have let Jing Ting marry you back earlier. So, you said you wanted a divorce just now? Were you trying to scare them?"
"Of course, as long as Jing Ting doesn't mention divorce, how can I agree to it?"
"He dares?" Mother Lu immediately retorted.
Where can I find such a good wife? I'm almost thirty years old and still single. It must be the good deeds of my ancestors that I can marry such a woman.
Lu Jingting, who was far away, couldn't help but yawn several times.
At this moment, deep in Lin Xiaoxue's heart, she thought silently: Even if he proposed a divorce, although the possibility was almost non-existent, she would not agree.
I'll have to rely on him for the rest of my life.
The farce came to an end, and the Lu family members were busy returning to their daily lives.
Lin Xiaoxue held the money she had earned hard today in her hands, and she knew that it was the result of everyone's joint efforts.
Walking up to Lu's mother, she handed over the money, "Mom, these are all earned by us together, please keep them."
Mother Lu looked at the thick stack of bills in front of her, with a look of relief and hesitation on her face.
"Xiaoxue, there are so many, it's not suitable for mom to hold them all."
Lin Xiaoxue interrupted, "Mom, what's wrong with this? This is the result of everyone's hard work, and it's most appropriate for you to keep it."
But how could Lu's mother fully accept the fruits of her daughter-in-law's hard work?
Without her efforts, we wouldn't have earned a penny.
After some discussion, the two reached a consensus: half of the money earned from pickling vegetables would go to the Lu family, and the other half would be kept by Lin Xiaoxue herself.
Lin Xiaoxue has made all the plans. No matter what Lu Jingting thinks in the future, she will join the army and make her way in the big city.
This small business was developed in the hope of providing the Lu family with a stable job.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoxue suddenly reminded: "Mom, after today's incident, I'm afraid that soon someone in our village will follow suit and start a pickled vegetable business. Even that..."
She paused, "Even the Lin family might follow suit."
Hearing this, the women of the Lu family couldn't help but become nervous.
"What should we do?"
"Don't worry." Lin Xiaoxue said after thinking for a moment, "There is a small vacant house next to the Lin family. We can use the vacant yard to build a small workshop specializing in pickling, and expand the business scope to promote products to restaurants, noodle shops, etc. to increase sales."
Her eyes revealed deep thought and foresight: "When competition is fierce, prices will inevitably fall. But if we can increase shipments and form large-scale production.
After we seize the market opportunity, even if we sell more products at a lower profit, it will be enough to support our family.”
Although the plan is ambitious and requires time to plan, it is not imminent at the moment.
"Since we are going to take this route in the future." Mother Lu nodded in agreement and added warmly, "Then let's slowly plan the layout. Don't worry, if there are really villagers who want to tinker with this, I will let them come to the Lu family to get the goods."
Lin Xiaoxue agreed that this would be the best idea.
However, she had to register a trademark and get a business license first. The vacant yard next to the Lu family's was quite large, so she could start work right away after cleaning it up.
So the Lu family acted as soon as they said it. They started making preparations as tomorrow is Sunday and there are many people at home.
In the early morning, the sunlight shone through the treetops and sprinkled onto the Lu family courtyard.
Today is a busy day. The vacant courtyard is about to be transformed into a small workshop. The Lu family members have been working together enthusiastically since early morning.
Father Lu and Lu Jingshu stood by the wall that was originally used for drying clothes with hammers, chisels and other tools.
After the two men discussed the location, Father Lu first swung a hammer to outline an outline the size of a door frame on the wall.
Then they alternated between chisel and hammer, hitting the wall rhythmically.
There were bang sounds, accompanied by flying dust, and a big hole was broken, and then it was outlined.
In the yard, Su Guifen and Xiaoyun took brooms and swept away the dead leaves and debris that had accumulated in the corners throughout the winter.
Although Tongtong was only eight years old, she followed them unwillingly, picking up the debris swept out, and using her own little strength to move the wooden bench to a suitable location for the adults to rest.
From the kitchen inside the house came the sound of water and the sounds of talking and laughing.
"I never thought that my family could open a small workshop." Lu Jingshi held a rag and carefully wiped the surface of the stove. "You work hard! I have found a job for you in the textile factory."
Hearing this, Shi Zhenli frowned and said in a dissatisfied manner: "Becoming a textile factory worker? That kind of work is hard and tiring, and the pay is low!"
She waved her hands to show her rejection, "I won't do it!"
After saying that, he raised the corner of his mouth proudly: "Oh, you don't know this. Now my mother praises me for being good at business! If you perform well, I will pay you 50 yuan a month."
"Really?" Lu Jingshi's eyes lit up. "Then I have to work harder. My wife's salary is higher than mine."
He laughed even more happily, "If I can't make it in the future, I'll just follow you!"
The two looked at each other and smiled. It was rare for them to be able to maintain such a happy mood despite being so busy.
In this way, with the mobilization of the whole family, the empty courtyard gradually took on a new look: a doorway was just opened for convenient entry.
Pickles are neatly lined up in the yard, waiting to be packed.
And the stovetop that shines brightly while being cleaned...
Every corner is infused with their joint efforts and expectations for a better life in the future.
