Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 226

Chapter 226: Chapter 226: Lanlan, I’m Here to Take You Home

After everything was explained, Jia Liang’s expression grew more solemn, and his heart fluttered with excitement, knowing that Mr. Lin was about to entrust him with a significant responsibility. He resolved to handle the matter beautifully.

No man dislikes the taste of power, and looking at Su Wensong and Qin Han, Jia Liang felt a tinge of envy.

Having left Xiyang Food Factory with time to spare, Lin Chuxia went to the Bun Shop.

Through the glass of the back kitchen, she saw Jia Yuanliang and Zhang Guilan making buns. Their methodical movements indeed looked like they knew what they were doing.

Soon, buns as pretty as flowers lay ready in their hands.

"Not bad progress," Lin Chuxia commented.

Upon seeing Lin Chuxia, Jia Yuanliang stood up straight with decorum and greeted her as Boss Lin.

Zhang Guilan spoke with a smile, "Don’t mention it, this young man has quite the skillful hands. It’s my first time seeing a man with such patience."

Men from their village hardly ever cook, and learning to cook is something they wouldn’t even consider.

For example, Qin Han never once entered the kitchen. Even when he started working at the Bun Shop, he managed the storefront. Even if there was a rush and the back kitchen couldn’t keep up with the bun demand, he never offered a hand.

It wasn’t because he was too proud or disdainful to do the work, but rather no one had that mindset.

Of course, since Jia Yuanliang started his apprenticeship, Qin Han also attempted to learn how to make buns. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

But his large hands were like clumsy pincers, wasting quite a bit of dough and filling without successfully making a couple of buns and eventually had to give up.

Jia Yuanliang was different from the men she had met; he learned earnestly and diligently, and most importantly, he managed to learn it well.

Now his bun making skills are not far off from theirs.

Lin Chuxia watched him make a few buns, which were indeed quite good, "Do you know how to mix the filling?"

"I do now, Sister Zhang taught me everything."

Before coming here, Jia Yuanliang had thought through many possibilities and also pondered whether the apprenticeship fee was worth it or not, but now he was thoroughly convinced.

From kneading dough to mixing fillings to making buns, he was taught everything clearly, except for the secret seasoning mix.

It was the first time he realized that in addition to seasoning, the mixing of the filling was also crucial.

Mixing the filling is a skill; during the process, seasoning water needs to be continually added to make the buns tasty and juicy.

"Not only did Sister Zhang teach me how to make buns, but Brother Qin also taught me many methods of managing the shop, including how to prepare cold dishes. I’ve learned that too."

In the end, Jia Yuanliang was a bit shy about it, as he had come to learn how to make buns but ended up learning so much more.

Lin Chuxia didn’t mind at all, "It’s good that you’ve learned it all. If you have any questions, just ask. Even after you go back, you can still write and exchange letters if there are any issues."

Jia Yuanliang nodded vigorously, "Thank you, Boss Lin. I plan on returning next week, and if it’s possible, when my Bun Shop opens, I would like to invite Boss Lin to attend, but I don’t know if it would be convenient for you."

He added, "I’ll buy the round-trip train ticket for you."

He had been here for a month and mastered various skills. Now that he was talking about doing business again, he felt an outburst of enthusiasm and wanted to show what he could do.

Lin Chuxia agreed without hesitation, "Sure, I’ll go to the Northwest with you next week. But you really don’t need to buy the train ticket."

Jia Yuanliang’s Bun Shop was, in a way, the first branch she had opened, and since he learned the craft from her, it was only proper for her to go and see it.

Next week, after Lanlan and Su Wensong’s wedding was over, she would be free of obligations.
