Song Tan's Notes

Chapter 1312. Born to Enjoy

Lu Jing came here in a hurry, traveling light and with a small group. She had all her large luggage delivered by courier, so when she arrived at Old Song's house, she felt a little embarrassed:

"I didn't bring much with me... Look at this, I came here empty-handed..."

Ouch! Their son is almost a live-in son-in-law, and Xiaochuan is so considerate, so they don't care about whether they come with empty hands or not.

Wu Lan was extremely happy: "It's a good thing you came today. If you were busy in a few days, we wouldn't have time to talk."

"I know!" Lu Jingren didn't come, but he had first-hand information:

"You want to pick tea? I plan to try it too! Isn't Xiaochuan's B&B still open? It's a good opportunity for me to try it out."

  "You can't experience it then." Wulan said honestly:

"The tea leaves scratch my legs, there's dew in the ground, there are mosquitoes, there are nests of little spiders, and there are bugs."

"You have to wear long trousers and long sleeves when you go to the fields. The dew sticks to your body and it's uncomfortable. If the height of the tea leaves is just right, you can stand for a whole day picking tea. It's a bit tiring, but it's not bad. If it's a little short, you have to bend over for a whole day..."

Wulan didn’t think there was anything special about picking tea, but when she told people about it, she was stunned.

  Hey, is picking tea so bitter?

In short.

"No, it's really not possible. You can go up the mountain to pick tea for fun, but don't take it seriously. You won't be able to bear it for a whole day."

"It's the beginning of spring tea picking, the sun isn't very strong and there aren't many mosquitoes. It will be a real pain in the summer."

Precisely because of the seasonal taste of tea, summer tea is the cheapest, both in terms of labor and selling price.

Of course, in her house, there is no distinction between the two; all tea is expensive.

Wu Lan spoke sincerely. She knew that even though Lu Jing had suffered hardships and fatigue in the past, she was used to sitting in the office after so many years.

Tea picking is not really the hardest job among farm work, but that is only relative. Those who have not done it really can’t stay here.

Apart from anything else, Wu Lan's words "nests of little spiders" made Lu Jing feel itchy all over.

At this moment, I can only sigh: "What should I do then?"

The homestay is not well maintained and there is no one to chat with in the village. It is so boring.

"Will not."

Lu Chuan had just brought her box upstairs, and his palms were red as Song Tan was squeezing them over and over again.

  Alas, all girls in love are like this. The Song family pretended not to see it. They only heard Lu Chuan say seriously:

“The B&B is basically ready.”

"We have a small place, so we don't need to hire any more people. You can just look at what's missing in the room you're going to live in and buy it as soon as possible. Also, please help take some beautiful promotional pictures."

Ouch!

This is a big deal!

This time, I can't keep disturbing people at their homes, especially during the busy farming season. Lu Jing said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll take my luggage over there directly."

"It's not that urgent." Wu Lan laughed. "It's almost done, but it hasn't been cleaned up thoroughly yet. I wanted to hire some people in the village to do it, but Lu Chuan wouldn't let me."

Lu Chuan was not being polite, he really felt it was inappropriate.

His purpose of opening a B&B was not to make money. The two largest rooms were for him and his mother.

Compared with Zhang Yanping's affordable B&B, which makes particularly exquisite use of space, the few remaining rooms in their home are not only spacious but also high-end. Whether it is the expensive linen bedding or silk, all of these cost a lot.

Otherwise, he would not have specifically chosen a cleaning company online to clean the fabric.

If you have ivory chopsticks, don’t you need to match other things? The building materials and details of the house are not cheap. The aunties in the village...

Lu Chuan was honest, he really didn't trust them to do house cleaning. Otherwise, if they rubbed the floor with steel wool, it would be more trouble than gain.

So, he also made arrangements steadily: "I have made an appointment with a housekeeping company in Yuncheng. After the inspection is completed here, they will come to do a full set of cleaning work."

The more money he spent, the more friendly Wu Lan and Song Sancheng looked at him.

It’s not okay to be unfriendly!

Not only did he not tell anyone that he was asking someone to leave his hometown for a relationship, but he also spent so much money in the village. Isn't that just going to go to waste?

Even if your son-in-law has money, you can't order him around like this. You have to be nicer to him, much nicer... That way you won't feel guilty.

In short, this son-in-law makes a lot of money, but he also spends a lot of money. The old Song family disapproved of it at the beginning, but now they have gotten used to it.

What can I do if I’m not used to it?

One night it was quite cold, and Wulan was kind enough to find a new piece of clothing for Song Sancheng to wear. Lu Chuan refused but she didn't listen and just put it on him.

Well, she bought that jacket online for 68 yuan. It was quite fashionable, with a collar made of coarse wool. It scraped her chin directly, leaving several red marks instantly.

Wulan admitted that the clothes were indeed not very good and the coarse wool collar was indeed quite thick, but no one expected that it could be used as a temporary coat to keep out the cold!

From then on, authentic peasant families understood that some people are born to enjoy life and spend money!

……

Some people are born to enjoy happiness, while others don't know how to enjoy their blessings.

For example, this group of dog owners on the mountain.

That bag of steamed buns really alarmed everyone in the cafeteria. The vegetable-picking team came to the window to take a look every few minutes, as if they could get a bargain by just taking a look.

Master Jiang was annoyed and finally sought the opinions of the dog owners: "The flower rolls, I think they are too fragrant after steaming, and everyone can't eat."

"How about this, let's cook the meal normally and I'll steam the steamed buns first. Let those who don't have steamed buns eat first, and when they've finished eating, we'll serve the steamed buns, okay?"

What's wrong with that?

Gou Ge was the first to respond. He was afraid that he couldn't hold five in one hand, and someone would come to grab them, so it would be better to fill the stomachs of these old employees first.

As for the others... although they knew that Huajuan'er must be something extraordinary, no matter how extraordinary he was, he was still Huajuan'er!

Seeing that Dog Brother agreed, they had no choice but to agree as well.

When the canteen opened for lunch, everyone stared at the delicious dishes and couldn't help drooling.

Chef Jiang had just put the steamer into the large steamer box and saw the situation and quickly instructed: "If you want to eat some vegetables, just put some on top. It will be steamed in 15 minutes and you will definitely enjoy it."

However, when I turned around again, a group of newcomers had already put together a large plate of rice, various dishes, and soup.

Master Jiang: ...

He subconsciously looked at the big steamer: "Is there still room for the steamed buns after putting in so much rice?"

Update 2, good night!
