The day of rebirth and elopement: caught by the military officer husband

The morning glow spread all over the earth. Seeing that it was still early, Lin Xiaoxue did not rush back to the village. Instead, she went to the farmer's market in the town with a few big unity banknotes in her pocket.

The farmers' markets in the 1980s were bustling with people lining the stalls and a wide variety of goods on display.

The vegetable vendors shouted one after another, "Fresh radishes! Sweet cabbages! Come and have a look!"

The butcher brandished his bloody carving knife, "Pork is cheap!"

And those colorful, eye-catching candies in transparent glass jars...

Lin Xiaoxue seemed to have returned to the most real and simple fragment of her past life.

She remembered that Lu Jingting had deep feelings for her in her previous life. She also knew the great financial pressure on the Lu family. After all, the whole family depended on the two men to support them.

Except for the second brother who has an income and Lu Jingting who has an allowance, everyone else has no source of income and so lives a tight life.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoxue thought about making money. Although she was very rich in her previous life, the starting point of her business was different.

This started in the village, and to get rich one must start from small things, so she decided to start by making delicious food.

After wandering around the market for a while, in addition to buying selected pork, Lin Xiaoxue also specially selected fresh cabbage, radish, cabbage and other vegetables to bring back to the Lu family.

Of course, we couldn’t forget to prepare something sweet for my sister-in-law’s daughter, so a bag of soft and delicious White Rabbit milk candy was also put into the bag.

When we returned to the Lu family, it was noon and the sun was shining gently in the yard.

Tongtong had just come back from school and ran over to watch when she saw Lin Xiaoxue carrying something in her hands.

"Aunt San, are you back from the street?" Eight-year-old Tongtong asked curiously, blinking her clear eyes.

Lin Xiaoxue nodded, and took out the bag of White Rabbit milk candy and handed it to her with a smile.

"No, it's for you."

"Thank you, Auntie San." The child was as happy as a little deer jumping for joy.

However, when Shi Zhenli noticed it, she immediately frowned: "Hey! What are you doing? This is milk candy. If the child eats too much, his teeth will be damaged."

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly ran over, tore a bigger hole in the package, grabbed a handful and put it in his pocket.

At the same time, he kept talking, looking into the house and shouting, "Mom! Go out and take a look at your new bride. She's spending money like water. She's totally wasting money!"

When Mother Lu heard Shi Zhenli's cry, she came out of the kitchen wearing an apron.

She frowned, looked at the man who was chewing candy with a smug look on his face, and scolded: "What are you yelling about? You have the loudest voice in the family."

There was displeasure in his voice.

Shi Zhenli, who was scolded, did not make a fuss. She pointed at the piles of food and candies on the table and gloated, "Mom, look at these things. They were all bought by Lin Xiaoxue. There's a spendthrift woman at home!"

The tone was full of accusation.

Lin Xiaoxue was unmoved and responded calmly: "I'm spending my man's money, so I don't need to explain it to my second sister-in-law. Besides, these are all prepared for my family."

"Huh! That sounds nice." Shi Zhenli sneered, "You're using your brother-in-law's allowance as your own money right after getting married? No wonder you can pretend to be generous!

In the past, this money was kept by my mother-in-law. If you are sensible, you should hand over this month's allowance."

Before Lin Xiaoxue could answer, Lu's mother interrupted, "What are you talking about? They are married now, so the allowance should naturally be given to the wife.

For example, isn't the little money left over from the second child kept with you?"

The Lu family has a rule that all income before getting married should be invested in the Lu family, and most of it can be taken out after getting married.

After all, they have not separated and they all eat from the same pot.

Shi Zhenli was speechless and could only change the subject: "Mom, but she bought pork. It's obvious that she was just greedy."

Lin Xiaoxue narrowed her eyes. What can you do? You eat her candy and even overturn her table. She can't tolerate this bad habit.

Without saying a word, he walked over, took back the handful of candy from her pocket, and stuffed it into Lu's mother's hands.

"Mom, this is the candy I bought. Take your time to eat it." As she spoke, she looked at the vegetables on the table and said, "Mom, I bought these vegetables to try to make some extra money. Don't worry, they won't be wasted."

Mother Lu took the candy without saying much. Her eyes fell on the vegetables. After a moment of contemplation, she said, "Let's make some pickled vegetables, but many farmers can do this. I'm afraid it won't make any money."

"Mom, my method is different from others. You will know when you try it."

"Okay, if there are not enough vegetables, tell your eldest brother and ask him to go to the fields to pick more." Although he was not sure about the profit from selling them, he still went with her.

After all, it doesn't cost much.

At this time, Lin Xiaoxue looked at the sky and said positively: "Mom, it's noon now, let me cook."

Mother Lu was wiping the table. When she heard her words, she looked up and smiled: "Great, your cooking skills are so good, we are waiting to eat. By the way, has your sister's affairs been resolved? She is already in her third year of high school, don't let her be distracted."

"It's solved. Thanks for your concern, Mom..." Lin Xiaoxue answered promptly.

The two chatted and laughed as they prepared lunch and got busy in the kitchen.

Shi Zhenli felt particularly awkward watching their harmonious appearance from the side.

She curled her lips and said, "Hmph."

Thinking of the White Rabbit milk candy that Lin Xiaoxue took out of her pocket just now, she is really a stingy person!

Shi Zhenli complained secretly.

How can someone behave like this? She had already put it in her pocket, but he still had the nerve to snatch it back. It's really amazing.

Humph, it’s just candy, what’s so great about it?

She would ask someone to bring some back from the street later and hide it away to enjoy slowly.

After lunch, Lin Xiaoxue began to wash radishes, cabbages and other ingredients to prepare pickles.

I happen to have a few glass jars at home that are perfect for pickling.

When Mother Lu saw her washing the glass jar, she hurried to help.

"Xiaoxue, you are really a man of action. Are you going to make pickled vegetables now?" asked Lu's mother.

"I'm free anyway, so I'll just deal with it quickly." Lin Xiaoxue answered while washing.

Shi Zhenli had just burped, and when she heard this, she frowned: "Oh! Mom, why are you still getting involved? Do you really believe that she can make money?"

Mother Lu comforted him softly, "It's okay, it's okay for our family to eat it."

At this time, the eldest sister-in-law Su Guifen came back with a basket of freshly cut cabbages, "It would be nice to have more pickled vegetables."

She said supportively, "In the future, we will have porridge with something appetizer in the morning."

Shi Zhenli just snorted coldly when she heard this: "Okay, okay, okay! Everyone protect her! Anyway, out of sight, out of mind!"

He shook his head and went out to visit friends.

Lin Xiaoxue was focused on the work in her hands: placing the radishes that had been rinsed with clean water neatly and evenly, sprinkling them with salt, and adding vinegar, sugar, light soy sauce, chili pepper, etc. She also added some Sichuan peppercorns to enhance the flavor. Every step was done meticulously and carefully.
