Switched Marriage: The Coddled Little Wife

Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Help Me Get Something Else

At night, when he returned home, Qin Yang’s parents hadn’t rested yet, and Qin Han took the newspaper to show Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin.

Although there wasn’t a single word mentioning Qin Yang in it, Qin Han still shared the news about Qin Yang’s unit with Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin.

Lin Chuxia went straight back to her room, took out the newspaper with the most detailed report to read it again, and then took out the stationery to start writing a letter.

She didn’t mention seeing the report in the newspaper; as usual, she wrote about the daily happenings in the shop, such as buying a three-wheeled motorcycle. That was just the start—if they had more money, she would also buy a small truck, a sedan; they were all part of her future aspirations.

Then she asked about Qin Yang’s recent situation, whether his unit was busy, whether it had snowed over there, and if the construction could still continue.

She didn’t even mention the fact that she had written letters to him before and hadn’t received any replies.

She wrote more than a page, and as before, then she put it into the envelope.

The next morning, she went to the post office to mail the letter, then went to the bun shop at the train station.

Everything was normal in the bun shop; they only broke a few dishes during the fight, but after cleaning up, it hadn’t affected the shop’s work.

As for the impact of people fighting and causing trouble? Completely non-existent.

Most of the onlookers at that time were residents from the surrounding area. Qin’s Buns Shop had been open for so long here and had already secured a portion of loyal customers.

Those who said that eating buns from Qin’s Buns Shop made their stomach upset, some people countered them on the spot.

After returning from the police station, people specifically came over to ask Sun Lanlan what happened.

Sun Lanlan explained on the spot that those people were just jealous of their bun shop’s good business and deliberately came to cause trouble.

Human nature is such that people lack laughter but hold on to hatred.

It’s normal for Qin’s Buns Shop’s good business to provoke jealousy.

Seeing Lin Chuxia come in, many regular customers greeted her warmly, "Boss Lin, we all believe in you, we have been eating Qin’s buns for so long, and there has never been a problem."

"Exactly, they’re just jealous that your bun shop is doing good business. Let them be jealous; I just love eating buns from your shop."

"Don’t let those people off easily, is there no King’s Law anymore? The market is open, right? Fair competition, I don’t know which bun shop they are from if they use such despicable methods. If I knew, I definitely wouldn’t go buy buns from them."

"Uncle Qi, you still go to other bun shops to buy buns? I’m only used to buns from Qin’s now; buns from other places somehow taste odd, always like there’s a scent of raw meat."

The person addressed as Uncle Qi also waved his hand, "I was just saying. I don’t even eat the buns from the State-Owned Restaurant anymore; I only recognize the Lin Family’s now. It’s not just my family that recognizes you, but I also do the promotion for you. To think that some people are so jealous that they come to your shop to cause trouble, Qin’s Steamed Bun must be delicious, right?"

"That’s the reasoning..."

Lin Chuxia had gotten acquainted with the people from the streets when she was running her stand, so she had a chat with them and sincerely thanked them for their support.

"Lanlan, today let’s give back to our regulars, buy five buns get one free."

"Okay."

Sun Lanlan replied with a smile and wrote on the small blackboard at the shop’s entrance: Special thanks to our new and old customers today, buy five buns get one free.

This small blackboard was something Lin Chuxia had prepared; new products and special offers in the shop were usually announced on it, and the regulars had gotten used to checking the blackboard whenever they came in.

Lin Chuxia spent a while in the shop, but since there were no other matters, she went to the backyard.

She worried that Granny Su might have been alarmed by the commotion in the shop yesterday.

Turns out, Granny Su was the one who started feeling apologetic when she saw her.

The disturbance in the shop yesterday indeed unsettled Granny Su.

At the time of the trouble, she didn’t know what to do; knowing she couldn’t help and would only add to the chaos, she could only watch anxiously through the glass.

Only until Lin Chuxia came with others and sent everyone off to the police station.

After Su Wensong came back, Granny Su asked him about the situation.

Su Wensong didn’t hide anything and shared his speculation with Granny Su, which made her both angry and riddled with guilt.

Lin Chuxia didn’t link the incident to Granny Su at all.

"Granny Su, it’s all Wensong’s speculation. Those people might just be henchmen sent by our competitors. It has nothing to do with the Su Family."

Granny Su waved her hand, "You don’t need to comfort me. I know what kind of people they are. Su Dazhuang and Su Wenmao will not stop until they achieve their goals. They did the same when they took Wensong’s job. Lin Chu, if they come again, you just call the police directly; I will testify for you. We need to have a good talk with the police."

"Okay, Granny Su, I’ll listen to you."

Uncertain how Jia Liang and Hou Xiaobao had dealt with Su Wenmao, with those two stepping in, the other side probably wouldn’t dare to come again.

Seeing that it was still early, Lin Chuxia went straight to the machinery factory.

For the matter of the meat grinder, she had already approached Xu Changping once before, and later when she opened the new shop, she had taken two meat grinders from Xu Changping as well.

It’s not that she couldn’t get them elsewhere; ever since the machinery factory started mass production of meat grinders, these kinds of small grinders became available at the hardware company’s retail department and some department stores, and apparently, the sales weren’t bad.

Her directly taking them from Xu Changping was more about mutual favors.

Sometimes owing someone a favor is also a way to maintain a relationship; as long as one manages the extent correctly, even unequal relationships can carry on.

The gatekeeper at the machinery factory still remembered Lin Chuxia and let her in right away, and Lin Chuxia left him a box of cigarettes in return.

Xu Changping showed a hint of enthusiasm upon Lin Chuxia’s arrival.

"You’re quite a busy person now, how come you have time to visit me? Do you want to take another meat grinder?"

Ancheng County isn’t that big, and since Lin Chuxia was engaged in a business vital to everyday life, Xu Changping would pass by her newly opened Bun Shop on his way to work and naturally knew how good her business was.

Even the recent situation where a food factory approached her wanting to buy her cooked food recipes, he had heard a bit about it.

"We don’t need another meat grinder for now. This time, I came to ask Director Xu for help with another item."

Xu Changping immediately became interested, "What is it? Tell me about it."

The girl in front of him had an exceptional mind; the meat grinder idea she came up with had significantly boosted the factory’s performance this year.

Lin Chuxia this time wanted Xu Changping’s help to produce a plastic sealing machine.

Initially, when he heard she wanted a plastic sealing machine that small workshops could use, Xu Changping was a bit disappointed, but upon hearing it was for vacuum packaging, his eyes lit up again.

Talking about the plastic sealing packaging machines, there were already quite a few on the market, mostly used by factories, but you could buy models of all sizes, large, medium, and small.

However, a food vacuum packaging machine was indeed not available on the market yet.

Lin Chuxia had drawn up blueprints again; the machine she wanted was even smaller than the smallest plastic sealing packaging machine currently available on the market.
