Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 122

Chapter 122: Chapter 122 I Just Like Being Tainted with the Smell of Copper

After returning to the restaurant from He County, Cheng Su immediately opened the foam box containing the pineapples and proceeded to check them one by one. As expected, there was some spoilage. She quickly soaked them in salt water and reprocessed them to prevent further damage.

This time could be overlooked, but if she were to make jam again, there would be no need to go back to He County. Instead, Sister Wang and her people would send them over, though she still needed to hire more hands on her own side.

Pushing these assorted thoughts aside, Cheng Su began making pineapple jam with the current batch.

As the sky grew dark, Qi Taiguo arrived.

"Sorry, I was so busy that I completely lost track of time," Cheng Su apologized first upon seeing the sinking sun, realizing she had been too engrossed in her work.

Looking at her weary face, Qi Taiguo felt a pang in his heart and said, "You know you can’t get fat with one bite. Don’t you know to rest a bit before carrying on with your work slowly?"

"They’re in a hurry, how can I slow down?" Cheng Su said with a smile. "Since you’re here, why don’t we just cook and eat here? But I’m not sure if there’s still any vegetables left to buy outside?"

"Sit down for a while. I’ll go out and buy some," Qi Taiguo insisted as he frowned at her. "Look at the state of your face, go and wash it. It’s terribly ugly."

Cheng Su’s smile bloomed like a flower. "My husband is the most caring!"

Qi Taiguo gave her a stern look and, grabbing the money, headed to the farmers’ market she had pointed to.

By the time he returned with the groceries, Cheng Su had quickly cooked them up. After their meal, they worked together to make the jam, hand in hand, until the moon was high in the sky before heading home.

On the way, Cheng Su told Qi Taiguo about the business opportunity she had discussed at the Wang Family’s house that day.

"If I weren’t so busy, I’d really like to get involved," Cheng Su said, eager to jump in.
