Chapter 76.2

Translated by Aviana

A few days prior to his departure, Lin Qingwan had him undergo rigorous ‘training’. But of course, it wasn’t that exaggerated; she just taught him things like how to negotiate with people and other stuff. For instance, in the event that the other person refuses to pay heed to his words, the best course of action would be to visit him multiple times. As for the attitude, she advised him it would be best to be neither servile nor overbearing. After all, their intention was to sell their food, not to beg them.

Yang Tiezhu, himself, had dealt with a lot of people. Thus, it took only a few words from her to understand her intention.

In fact, his wife didn’t have to mention such things explicitly; he, too, had an understanding of these things. Wasn’t it just a matter of running around? If meeting them several times will get them to make a deal, wouldn’t all that be silver then? Besides, no one would say no to money.

Certainly, there were a few restaurants that showed a bad attitude towards him. They outrightly kicked him out without even giving him a chance to introduce himself. Additionally, Lin Qingwan had also taught him how to bribe the staff. At first, he wasn’t proficient in it, but after a few times, he got the hang of it.

As such, after running around for ten days, he got quite good results, and few were willing to buy Laweixian for them. This time, Yang Tiezhu had taken a lot of Laweixian with him just to ensure that if someone showed intentions of buying on the spot, he wouldn’t be empty-handed. Besides, since it was food he was selling, he certainly had to give some samples for taste-testing to others. Among the neighboring few towns, the restaurants in almost every town have asked for their product.

These words delighted Lin Qingwan’s heart extremely. Yang Tiezhu was also in quite a good mood. After all, this was the first time he went out to do business and was very pleased with his results.

Yang Tiezhu let her know that he would have to go again after another 3 to 4 days to see how Laweixian was selling in those restaurants.

Lin Qingwan had mentioned to him at the beginning that as long as they managed to attain a stable business from even one restaurant per town, that in and of itself would be a very good start. After all, a town was only this big, and all the restaurants would be on the lookout for the rival’s new dishes. As long as one restaurant could manage to sell them well, the others would be easy to deal with. That’s why at that time, she made another trip to Zui Xian Restaurant only after a few days. Selling would be even easier then.

After chatting for a while, the two cuddled under the quilt. Running around these days while worrying about how to sell the Laweixian and also about home had been too taxing on Yang Tiezhu’s body. Thus, he was too tired at the moment. Ever since she got pregnant, Lin Qingwan has been feeling drowsy. However, this time she felt a little reluctant to fall asleep.

As she snuggled her head against his embrace while nestling in his arms, Lin Qingwan found herself feeling cozy and relaxing.

However, as Lin Qingwan was snuggling around comfortably, her movements ignited a fire within Yang Tiezhu. Ever since they became aware of her pregnancy, they seldomly had intercourse. Only when he was unable to endure himself anymore would he pull his wife over. But even then, they would be very careful, lest they hurt the fetus in her stomach.

These past ten days, it wasn’t just Lin Qingwan who had missed him. Even Yang Tiezhu missed his wife dearly.

He was a young man in the prime of his life. It was easy to get stirred even without stimulation. Not to mention now, when he was continuously provoked, thus Wanwan’s situation in the subsequent moments was quite pitiful….

While Lin Qingwan was still nestled against him, she found something amiss. Why were her clothes untied, ah? She had yet to snap out of her bewilderment when even her underpants were also pulled down.

The man’s voice entered her ears from behind, “Wife, don’t move. I’ll take it slow…”

A silence befell the night.

The next day, Yang Tiezhu woke up full of vitality early in the morning. The third branch’s husband and wife had become aware of their second brother’s return earlier. Thus, they weren’t surprised when they saw Yang Tiezhu.

But, contrarily, Lin Qingwan was disconsolate. This barbarian tossed her around her till deep into the night. In the beginning, he said he would take it slow, but later as he got excited, he began moving fast. Although she too found it comfortable, the entire time, she felt as if her heart was in her throat, dreading that the child might get injured.

Fortunately, nothing happened. Relief washed over the two after they calmed down.

Everyone gathered around and had breakfast before going to Yang-shi’s place.

The past few days, he had greatly inconvenienced the third branch’s couple and his eldest gumu, making him feel a bit ashamed. Furthermore, he was also planning to wash the black mule. Yesterday, after returning, he just took it to the shed in Yang-shi’s place and poured some feed into the trough. After running around all these days, the black mule had turned grey. The people in rural areas treated their livestock with utmost care and affection. Thus, Yang Tiezhu planned to tend the mule nicely and feed it with some good stuff that day.

When they reached Yang-shi’s place, they too had just finished breakfast. Yang Tiezhu had a brief chat with Yang-shi before he got busy tending the black mule. While Yang-shi, her daughter-in-law Zhou-shi, and the third branch’s husband and wife stepped out into the backyard to make Laweixian. Lin Qingwan moved a chair next to them and began conversing with them.

Now that the demand for Laweixian has stabilized, they have a clear idea of how much to make every day. Currently, they were making a batch every two to three days. With how the current weather was, they could only store it for a couple of days.

Though the women were idly chatting, their hands didn’t stop moving. After doing it for a couple of days, they all became proficient in making it. After a while, Lin Qingwan felt uncomfortable sitting for long and stood up, intending to walk around.

When she ambled into the main room, she happened upon Xia Dacheng and Yang Tiezhu chatting. Currently, Xia Dacheng’s injuries had pretty much healed, and was able to sit alright, but still wasn’t able to get up from the bed.

Day in and day out, Xia Dacheng was bored and senseless from being all alone all these days. Today, seeing that his biao younger brother had come, he pulled him over to have a chat.

Lin Qingwan went and sat next to them and listened to them. After a few moments, she realized Xia Dacheng was actually telling Yang Tiezhu about his experience of how to deal with the people outside, especially when doing business.

Compared to Xia Dacheng, Lin Qingwan’s tips were akin to the chicken feathers and garlic skin . Xia Dacheng’s words were much more thorough, logical, and impactful. As expected of a former manager, his experience was rich.

Later in the afternoon, everyone had lunch together. Lin Qingwan knew that Yang Tiezhu had brought a lot of foodstuffs when he came back this time and had given some to Yang-shi before bringing some back home. Thus, she didn’t decline Yang-shi’s invitation and had lunch at their place.

Post lunch, after sitting for a while, Yang Riezhu accompanied Lin Qingwan on her short walk before returning home for her short nap.

When the two reached home, Wang-shi and He-shi were standing in the yard. Yang Tiezhu stepped into the room without paying any heed to them.
