Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 519 to home

Dear friends, three updates tomorrow, let me take it slow and prepare for a big update!

"That’s really a pity. They didn’t mention it was a technical exchange at the time." Yao Shimin truly felt it was a missed opportunity.

"Vice Factory Director Yao, let me introduce you, these are two engineers from Hai City who are here to install ventilation equipment. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

This is Master Liu, Liu Huping, and this is Master Wu, Wu Xiaohua.

Masters, this is our Technical Director, Yao Shimin."

The three of them shook hands and greeted each other. This is the nice thing about technical staff, they immediately start talking about equipment-related matters.

Jiang Xinyu smiled at Pan Xiulan and took out a packet of milk candies from her bag to give to her.

"These are milk candies I brought back for your girl."

"Haha, no wonder the kids like you. You always give them treats."

"Why don’t you just let me raise your child for you then?"

"That won’t do, I can’t bear to part with my daughter."

Qian Jun stood up, "It’s getting late, let’s head out."

Jiang Xinyu sat in the front passenger seat, Qian Jun drove, while the other three sat in the back. The three of them kept discussing equipment matters. Jiang Xinyu genuinely admired them for that.

The car stopped by a restaurant, and the five of them went in together.

Ding Shihong saw the group of five entering and immediately thought of welcoming them.

"Sis, you’re back? Just a few days ago we were having dinner and talking about you."

"Brother Ding, I got off the train this afternoon."

"Good, good, it’s great that you got home safely. Mr. Qian, Vice Factory Director Yao, please come in."

Ding Shihong led them into a private room. "Sit for a while, I’ll go arrange something."

In a short while, a pot of tea was brought over. Jiang Xinyu poured water for the two engineers. "Masters, I hope you can get used to the food here?"

Liu Huping smiled and said, "Vice Factory Director Jiang, don’t worry, my parents are both from the North, and the eating habits at home still follow northern tastes."

"Vice Factory Director Jiang, I have no problem either."

"That’s good, I was worried you wouldn’t be used to it."

Ding Shihong’s food service was quite fast. Looking at today’s dishes, you could tell they really put effort into it.

Finally, he brought over a bottle of wine somewhat sheepishly, "This is my last private stash, for my sis to celebrate. Even though she doesn’t drink, the atmosphere is great."

Qian Jun laughed and asked Liu Huping and Wu Xiaohua, "Do you two masters drink?"

Both shook their heads, "We don’t drink."

"Director Ding, you can save your wine today. Since our guests don’t drink, we won’t either. Let’s keep it for another time."

"Alright, saving it for Mr. Qian."

Following that, Qian Jun enthusiastically invited the two guests to eat more.

Jiang Xinyu had almost finished eating. Seeing Qian Jun and the two engineers chatting, she asked Yao Shimin, "How is Jingyi?"

"She didn’t come to work today, not feeling well."

"What happened?" Jiang Xinyu was startled. Qiao Jingyi’s health was usually good, how could she not feel well?

"It’s nothing, just that she’s pregnant."

Jiang Xinyu gave Yao Shimin a glare, "Why didn’t you make it clear, you scared me. It’s too late today, I’ll go see her tomorrow morning before work."

Qian Jun, listening from the side, felt a pang in his heart. Others got married and had children, but after he got married, his wife passed away. What kind of fate is this?

After finishing the meal, Jiang Xinyu slipped Ding Shihong a packet of milk candies.

"Brother Ding, these are for my niece and nephew."

"Haha, my sis is so considerate, we can’t easily buy milk candies here. The two kids will be pleased."

Qian Jun drove to drop off Jiang Xinyu, then went to drop off Yao Shimin. Finally, the three returned to the factory together.

When Jiang Xinyu got home, the first thing she did was boil water. The ten-plus days on the train were really tough.

While water was boiling in the pot, she started tidying up the house.

There was no dust on the furniture, thanks to Wang Ailing often coming over to clean—it’s really nice.

However, Jiang Xinyu still wiped everything inside and out. Otherwise, she felt uneasy, that bit of OCD made it impossible for her to tolerate not tidying up herself before lying down.

An hour later, the water was boiled, and the house was clean. She dove into bed, and only then did she go take a shower.

She decided to indulge herself with some rose essential oil.

But after just sitting down for five minutes, she felt dizzy.

Jiang Xinyu jumped out, surprised, and couldn’t enjoy it. Was she too tired to relax?

After a brief cleanup, she went to bed, finally feeling secure wrapped in the warm blankets.

Early the next morning, she was awakened by an alarm clock. Groggily opening her eyes, she didn’t even know where she was.

She lay there with open eyes for a while before sitting up.

She still had to go see Qiao Jingyi, better get up, otherwise, there wouldn’t be enough time.

After washing up, she ate a bowl of eight-treasure porridge and felt much more energized.

She took out six loaves of bread, a packet of milk candies, and after thinking a bit, she decided to bring some kiwi fruit dried slices too.

Qiao Jingyi knew from last night that Jiang Xinyu was back, and was coming to see her in the morning, so she opened the main door early.

She went inside, sitting in the house waiting. Yao Shimin was cooking in the kitchen.

While cooking porridge, he thought about calling his mom to ask her to take leave and come over. He needed to focus on installing the ventilation equipment and feared he might not be able to take care of his wife.

Qiao Jingyi heard movement in the yard and came out smiling, "Xinyu, you’re here?"

"Of course, I came to see you first. How are you feeling? Any discomfort?"

"I’m fine, only get heartburn after nine in the morning, but other than that, everything tastes delicious."

"That’s good, you should carry peanuts with you, eating a few helps with heartburn."

"Okay, I’ll remember that. Xinyu, did you bring me bread?"

"Yes, your nose is really sharp."

"Of course, as soon as you came in, I smelled the sweet fragrance."

They went into the house, and Jiang Xinyu handed Qiao Jingyi the bread. "Eat some if you feel like it, it’s still soft."

Qiao Jingyi didn’t hesitate, picked up the bread, and ate it in a few bites. When she reached for a second, Jiang Xinyu stopped her.

"Don’t eat more now. Do you have powdered milk at home? I’ll make you a bowl."

"No, I don’t like the taste."

"That’s not right. If possible, you should drink powdered milk every day. When I was pregnant with Shi Jing and Feifei, I never stopped drinking it. Look how fair and delicate their skin is?"

"Really?"

"Of course, drinking more milk is good for the child. A bowl a day guarantees the baby will be born fair, healthy, and clever."

"Okay, I’ll have Old Yao buy some."

Yao Shimin came in with breakfast, "Xinyu, do you want some more?"

"No, I’ve eaten. Quickly prepare the milk, if not, I still have some, Jingyi needs to have a bowl of powdered milk and a boiled egg every day to keep the nutrition up."
