Lin Xiaoxue gave out the gifts she had carefully selected to her family one by one.

"Mom, look at the jewelry I bought you!"

"Dad, come and try these leather shoes to see if they fit you."

"Sister-in-law, please try this dress." Lin Xiaoxue smiled and handed her a soft silk dress.

Su Guifen carefully touched the gorgeous pattern, which was a lightly carved landscape of mountains and rivers.

"So beautiful..." she murmured softly.

Mother Lu interrupted and said, "Your sister-in-law is so happy now! She was just diagnosed with pregnancy today! I'm afraid she can't wear new clothes until after the birth."

Lin Xiaoxue looked at the happiness on Su Guifen's face and felt happy. "Sister-in-law, congratulations! This is really good news!"

She smiled and patted Su Guifen's hand.

Su Guifen subconsciously stroked her not-so-obvious belly, her eyes curved into crescents: "Who said it wasn't? I've been feeling very tired these past few days, and I thought I was weak. I went to the clinic for a checkup, and the doctor told me I was pregnant."

Her voice was full of anticipation and excitement.

Lu Jingshu was standing aside and after hearing the news, a proud and relieved smile appeared on his face.

He thought to himself: All my efforts over this period of time have finally paid off.

However, when the atmosphere was at its most heated, Shi Zhenli suddenly became silent.

After hearing the news that her sister-in-law was pregnant, her originally bright smile gradually shrank.

"I...I'm a little tired." She said softly, and turned back to her room without any further explanation.

Lin Xiaoxue watched Shi Zhenli's departing back, a hint of deep thought flashing in her eyes.

She knew that her second sister-in-law was worried about not being able to get pregnant.

Let's have a good chat with her after some time.

Lin Xiaoxue secretly decided to suggest Shi Zhenli and her husband to go to a big hospital in the city for a check-up when the time is right.

Then he turned to the couple who were immersed in joy and said, "Sister-in-law, please stop working at the factory for now."

Lin Xiaoxue reminded with concern.

"Oh! It's okay!" Su Guifen waved her hands repeatedly, "I'm not that precious. As long as I don't do heavy physical work, it's fine."

Mother Lu also chimed in: "That's right! It's no use leaving them alone. Anyway, we old couple are keeping an eye on them!"

She was about to give birth and was working in the fields.

Su Guifen is used to being hardworking and cannot sit idle.

The next morning.

The sunlight shines through the thick clouds and onto the newly built factory at the entrance of the village. Everything seems exceptionally peaceful.

However, the tranquility was soon broken by the rumbling sound of motors in the distance, and three large trucks loaded with machinery and equipment slowly drove into the factory yard.

"Sister Lin! I'm here to help too!" A young and lively voice came from the truck.

Lin Xiaoxue looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man wearing a brown jacket, with slightly dark skin but bright eyes jumping out of the truck.

"Xiao Zhou?" Lin Xiaoxue exclaimed in surprise: "Why are you here too? I remember that salesmen are not responsible for delivery, right?"

Xiao Zhou chuckled and said, "I'm not responsible for delivery, but I wanted to see your factory, so I took a ride with the driver."

He looked around and praised, "Sister Lin, your factory is really big! The location is well chosen. It can solve the employment problems of many people in the village!"

"Thank you for the compliment." Lin Xiaoxue responded with a smile, "I really want to do something for the villagers."

"Sister Lin is doing this for the benefit of the villagers. She has a big vision and is a person who can do great things." Xiao Zhou said with emotion.

This was the first time he admired a woman so much that he insisted on coming to see her factory.

Lin Xiaoxue smiled and waved her hand: "That's true. But since you're here, it's just right. I can show you around our workshop later. You can take whatever you want to eat."

She thought it would be more troublesome to send it by mail.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two men began to direct the workers to unload and relocate the machines.

Lin Xiaoxue called He Mu and several other young people to learn how to operate the machine.

She took Xiao Zhou to visit the workshop.

Compared with the factory, this place looks much simpler, but it is also quite large.

"Look, Xiao Zhou, although our workshop is not as modern as the factory, it also has its own characteristics." Lin Xiaoxue introduced as they walked.

Xiao Zhou followed behind her, looking around curiously: "It looks good, everyone here is busy and organized."

They passed by the pickling workshop and saw several workers skillfully soaking ferns in salt water.

"This is our pickled vegetable workshop." Lin Xiaoxue pointed, "There are also pickled mustard tubers, preserved eggs, orchid beans and other products."

Following Lin Xiaoxue's introduction, Xiao Zhou noticed a packaging machine was running.

"This machine..." He paused, "Looks a little too simple."

Lin Xiaoxue nodded: "At present, we use a simple packaging machine, not a vacuum extraction machine. That's why we went to your factory to purchase it. Since we want to become bigger and stronger in the future, we have to work harder on packaging, so we can't save on machines at all."

The packaging of pickled vegetables is simpler and can be handled by ordinary machines.

If you want to preserve century eggs and duck eggs for a longer time, you need to vacuum pack them.

Xiao Zhou nodded: "Sister, you are really thoughtful."

They walked past a row of shelves neatly stacked with finished products.

Xiao Zhou was pleasantly surprised to find that each package had a professional trademark printed on it: "Oh! Sister, you are so advanced that you even printed your trademark on it."

"Of course!" Lin Xiaoxue said with a smile: "Although the scale of the workshop is not large, the form and content must be complete."

Then she found a few cartons and swept through the shelves.

Soon, the cartons were filled with food: "Take these back and let your relatives and colleagues taste the Lu family's homemade food!"

"Sister, this...this is too much!" Xiao Zhou was almost dumbfounded when looking at these full cardboard boxes.

Lin Xiaoxue said gently: "It's not much. In addition to sharing it with my family and colleagues, if you think it tastes good, please recommend it to others! If you can introduce customers to buy the goods, I will give you a commission."

When Xiao Zhou heard the word "commission", a gleam flashed in his eyes: "Commission?"

The voice sounded slightly excited.

"Yes!" Lin Xiaoxue noticed his mood change and smiled more deeply: "In addition to full-time sales, we also welcome part-time salesmen. Although there is no basic salary, the commission is as high as that of full-time employees. You know, some part-time employees with strong business capabilities can earn hundreds or even two hundred yuan a month just from commissions!"

Xiao Zhou held the food tightly in his hand, his eyes lit with fighting spirit: "Really...Is it really possible?"

He comes from a poor family, so any extra income would be a great blessing for him.

Seeing the young man's expectant eyes, Lin Xiaoxue encouraged him, "Of course! You usually go to the market to research the market, right? Can you bring some business to our workshop?"
