“Not yet.” Da Niu replied to his mother.
Seeing that his mother was smiling, he also smiled.
“Mother, father said that after the cabbages in the field are harvested, he will bring us to eat at Liu’s Express. Is that true?”
As soon as he said this, Er Niu also looked at his mother, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Many of the children in the village had been there. He heard that the food was good.
Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife was stunned.
Looking at the longing eyes of the two children, a sense of guilt welled up in her heart.
“Yes! You don’t have to wait until all the cabbages are harvested. Tomorrow, 1’11 buy them back from the Liu family!”
Why did they have to go to the shop? The Liu family was selling spicy skewers, and the price was cheaper than buying from the shop.
For the employees who worked in the workshop, it was even cheaper. This was also one of the employee benefits.
When she was working in the fields, she had heard many people talk about this.
Now that she was also an employee of the Liu family’s workshop, she could buy some spicy skewers at a low price in the future.
“Really? Thank you, mother!” Before Da Niu could react, Er Niu had already pounced on his mother and into her arms.
Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife smiled and caught her youngest son. She tidied up her son’s dirty face.
The small courtyard was filled with laughter.
When Fourth Uncle Lin returned with the cabbages, he saw such a happy scene.
The fatigue on his sweat-covered face disappeared and he smiled.
Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife heard the commotion and saw that her husband had returned. She quickly went over to help.
“It’s fine. Go and get me some water.” Fourth Uncle Lin avoided his wife and said.
“Alright.” Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife quickly agreed and turned around to enter the house.
After a while, she scooped some water for her husband.
Fourth Uncle Lin took the water and gulped down half of it.
After that, he sat down at the side.
Seeing her man sweating profusely, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife’s heart ached a little.
“Thank you for your hard work. You took all the cabbages in the field?” As she spoke, she looked at the two baskets of cabbage that were sticking out of the ground.
“Yes.” Fourth Uncle Lin heaved a sigh of relief.
“It’s still early. Let’s clean up the leaves together later. I’ll pick them up and send them to the Liu family’s workshop.”
Because they had a grudge with the Liu family, the cabbages were carefully packed. They were afraid that the Liu family’s workshop would find an excuse not to accept them.
Fortunately, nothing like that had happened yet.
Suddenly, Fourth Uncle Lin seemed to have thought of something and looked at his wife.
“What were you guys talking about just now? Why were you so happy?” He asked with a smile.
Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife smiled. Before she could answer, her youngest son ran into Fourth Uncle Lin’s arms.
“Mother said that she will go to the Liu family tomorrow to buy spicy skewers for us to eat!” He said coquettishly.
Fourth Uncle Lin paused.
He picked up his youngest son and placed him on his lap.
After saying those words of agreement, he looked at his eldest son with a smile.
He saw his eldest son looking at him timidly and looking at his youngest son with envy.
Fourth Uncle Lin’s heart skipped a beat as he waved at his eldest son.
“Da Niu, come here.”
Da Niu looked at his mother and saw the encouragement in her eyes. He moved and walked to his father.
Fourth Uncle Lin laughed heartily. He hugged Da Niu and with a pull, he placed Da Niu on his other lap.
“Aiyo, this kid is heavier than Er Niu!”
Da Niu’s face turned red, but his heart was filled with warmth.
Although this was their stepfather, he treated them very well…
After spoiling his two sons for a while, Fourth Uncle Lin finally put them down under the urging of his wife.
It was also at this time that Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife told him about her application to be a worker in the Liu family’s workshop.
When he heard this, he was shocked.
Although he had previously agreed to his wife applying for the Liu family’s workshop, he did not have much hope in his heart.
After all, even if they were fellow villagers, it was not certain that they would be recruited. Moreover, their family had a grudge with the Liu family.
But who knew…
“R-really?” Fourth Uncle Lin asked uncertainly.
“Yes! Madam Zhou personally agreed!”
“Moreover, the salary is high. It’s 70 wen a day!” Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife said excitedly.
“In the future, when I’m familiar with it, you’ll have to work overtime. Working overtime for two hours is 30 wen!”
Fourth Uncle Lin’s eyes widened when he heard that.
“That’s why I promised the children that I would buy them spicy skewers tomorrow.” Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife continued..
