Chapter 334

Chapter 334: Chapter 334: Knowing When to Stop Wang Tianxue indifferently withdrew her gaze, turned around forlornly, "I’m sorry, I don’t need your sympathy."

Lin Chuxia anticipated this outcome and wasn’t disheartened. She called out to Wang Tianxue’s retreating figure, "I really don’t mean any harm, Wang Tianxue. If you need any help, you can find me at Qin’s Buns Shop on Construction Road."

Wang Tianxue paused her steps momentarily but didn’t turn back and continued walking forward.

Lin Chuxia watched her until she disappeared into the distance, knowing that she might not trust her now. But when the time comes for the custody of the child, and if she truly has nowhere else to turn, Wang Tianxue would seek her out.

Upon returning to the bicycle parking spot, the shameless couple was nowhere to be seen.

Lin Chuxia exchanged her ticket to retrieve her bicycle and didn’t rush home, instead heading straight for the market.

The market in the city boasted a variety that surpassed their county’s, even selling seafood.

Lin Chuxia bought a fish, some vegetables, and meat before finally returning home.

Qin Yang had arrived home early and had somehow procured a long bamboo pole, now digging a hole in the yard.

Li Wei was with him.

Seeing Lin Chuxia return, before Qin Yang could say anything, Li Wei joked, "Sister-in-law, you’re back. In the short while you were gone, Mr. Qin nearly turned into a ’wife-watching rock,’ unable to focus on his work, glancing at the gate eight times per minute."

Qin Yang didn’t deny it and looked at her intently.

Lin Chuxia, holding up the vegetables and fish, said, "I went to the market and stayed a bit longer. Sorry for making you worry. I should have told you beforehand."

Qin Yang then slightly lifted the corners of his mouth, "Okay."

Li Wei hissed and took a step back, looking at Qin Yang as if he were a monster, "Mr. Qin, are we still doing this work? Or should I step aside?"

He had never seen Qin Yang like this before. Even though nothing was said, the atmosphere between the two felt a bit cheesy.

Qin Yang glared at Li Wei irritatedly and then continued to dig the hole.

Li Wei chuckled and knew when to stop pressing the joke.

Lin Chuxia knew they were installing a TV antenna and called out to Li Wei, "Call over Sister-in-law Jiang Hong later, we’ll have dinner at my place tonight; I’ve bought a fish."

There was no way Li Wei would be formal with Qin Yang and the others, he loudly agreed, "Sure thing, believe it or not, just yesterday she was yearning for fish."

"Then we’ll make a fish soup. You guys get busy; I’m going to cook."

Lin Chuxia propped her bicycle up and entered the kitchen carrying the groceries.

All the necessary kitchenware had already been obtained, and using the gas stove was more convenient than the coal stove or wood stove at home.

The main dish would be rice.

Lin Chuxia first set the rice to steam, then started preparing the meat.

She had bought a good amount of meat, suitable for red braising.

As she was washing the meat, a pair of large hands took over, "The water’s cold; let me do it."

"That was quick, huh?"

Lin Chuxia looked outside and saw Li Wei spinning around the telephone pole, stretching his neck and peering through the glass into the house.

After some time, probably struggling, he stretched his neck out even further and yelled, "Mr. Qin! Mr. Qin! Come take a look, why can I only see snowflakes on the screen..."

Qin Yang ignored him, finished washing the meat, and placed it on the chopping board, "How big should I cut it?"

Lin Chuxia, suppressing her laughter, "Aren’t you going to check on him? It must be hard for him to adjust it alone, right?" frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓ Catching Qin Yang’s gaze, she gestured with her hands, "This size, for the red-braised pork."

"Okay," Qin Yang responded, "Engineer Hu from next door found us the telephone pole. I offered to pay him, but he wouldn’t take it."

Such a big bamboo pole is not something you can find anywhere on the street. When Sister-in-law Fu moved in yesterday, she took the initiative to strike up a conversation, and it was clear that both Engineer Hu and Sister-in-law Fu were keen to form a good relationship with them.

"I bought a good amount of meat, I’ll send them some braised pork when it’s ready so they can have a taste too."

Qin Yang had just been reassigned here, regardless of the motives behind the others’ friendliness, the current situation should be developing in a good direction.

Qin Yang nodded, with no objections.

Li Wei’s voice came from outside again, "Hey, Mr. Qin, you gotta admit, this color TV really does look different."

Upon seeing that the television was set up, Lin Chuxia told him to hurry and call Jiang Hong over to avoid them starting to make dinner too.

"Alright, I’ll go right away."

Li Wei left with a grin on his face.

Qin Yang had finished chopping the meat, but he was no good at cooking; he could only watch Lin Chuxia prepare the food.

"I remember back in the Northwest, you had the best relationship with Sister-in-law Song."

Lin Chuxia replied as she busied herself, "Whether I get along well with someone depends on you, doesn’t it? But Sister-in-law Song has a broad-

minded temperament and is enthusiastic, she is indeed easy to get along with. By the way, wasn’t Mr. Bai reassigned too?"

She had been here for two days but hadn’t yet inquired about Qin Yang’s work.

"He was, to his hometown. That project there ended, and quite a few people were reassigned; some stayed with the original unit but went down South."

Lin Chuxia suddenly remembered that in her previous life, Qin Yang seemed to have spent many years in the South.

Back then, Lin Jiayi was at home taking care of their child, and Qin Yang’s visits were even less frequent. She had often run back to her parents’

home to complain.

But in this life, he hadn’t gone along with the reassignment to the South. Instead, he had returned to the city...

Lin Chuxia slightly curled her lips, knowing he did it for her.

Qin Yang, seeing Lin Chuxia’s sudden good mood, was somewhat puzzled, "You’re happy that Mr. Bai and others weren’t reassigned with me?"

Lin Chuxia: "..."

She gave him a look, "What nonsense are you talking about? I just remembered some other things. By the way, aside from you and Li Wei, did anyone else from your group get transferred here?"

"No, just us. Li Wei was reassigned because his wife is pregnant, and she might not have been able to handle the climate down South."

It’s true, having two people reassigned to the same place was already fortunate.

Lin Chuxia put the meat into the pot to stew and went to pick some vegetables, while Qin Yang had already finished preparing the fish.

There was movement outside, Li Wei and Jiang Hong entered the yard one after the other, Li Wei even carrying a bottle of liquor.

Jiang Hong headed straight to the kitchen, greeted Lin Chuxia with a smile, "Just stepping into the yard and I can already smell the aroma, I’m in for a treat today."

Seeing Qin Yang helping Lin Chuxia chop vegetables in the kitchen, she was a bit surprised.

The kitchen was too small and with so many people, it was hard to move around, and it wasn’t nice to leave guests in the room by themselves, so Lin Chuxia sent Qin Yang out.

After everyone left, Jiang Hong spoke in a low voice, "Mr. Qin can cook?"

Not just Jiang Hong, even Lin Chuxia only found out these past two days. Nowadays, a man who can cook is indeed a rare species, and Lin Chuxia was quite proud of it.

"He can cook a little."

"You’re so lucky, right? Li Wei can’t cook at all. His noodles are either too salty or too bland, and last time he even managed to make a mushy mess –

such a dummy."

"None of these men are dummies, it’s just that everyone has their strengths. I really do admire them."

Jiang Hong was just making a comment, her eyes and heart wouldn’t really fault her own man.

Married to a working man from the countryside, many village sisters envied her.
