At the mention of her son, Li Qin hesitated for a moment, but Ding Jun was too kind to refuse. The woman quickly wiped her hands on her body and said with a smile, “Shall I try it?”

Li Qin took the cake and took a small bite. She looked at Ding jun and praised sincerely, “It’s really delicious. No wonder everyone in the village likes to eat it.”

Thinking of something, Li Qin quickly took out the money in her pocket. “How much is this cake? I’ll give it to you.”

Ding Jun quickly waved her hand. “No need, no need. This is actually a newly developed experiment of mine. It might not be successful yet, and it hasn’t been sold yet. I want you to try it and see if it’s delicious.”

The corners of Li Qin’s lips curled up. “It’s delicious. I’ve never eaten such a delicious cake. Ding Jun, you’re really amazing.”

Ding Jun smiled and narrowed her eyes. She thought of something and probed, “I still have to rely on my husband Zhiguo. If he gives me the capital, I’ll be able to support my daily farm work and expenses. Only then will I have the energy and time to do these things.”

“Sister Li Qin, have you ever thought of getting married again? You can find a new man to live with and you’ll be able to relax a little.”

Li Qin was stunned for a moment. She waved her hand with a calm expression. The corners of her mouth still held a smile. “There’s no need. I have no intention of getting married again. I can support my son by earning my own money. I don’t need a man.”

Ding Jun looked at Li Qin with a hint of admiration in her eyes. She smiled from the bottom of her heart. “Okay.”

In such an environment, it was really admirable that Li Qin could make such a decision. She was a typical independent and strong woman.

After Li Qin left, Mother Chen jogged out of the room at the side. She would occasionally glance at Li Qin’s back as she left. She looked at Ding Jun with a look of anticipation in her eyes and asked somewhat excitedly, “How was it? What did she say?”

Ding Jun sighed lightly and smiled. “She said that she has no plans to get married again.”

Mother Chen frowned. Her eyes were somewhat complicated. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she did not say it out loud. She only sighed softly and said, “If that’s the case, then it’s really a pity.”

Ding Jun smiled and did not say anything else.

Very soon, a few pieces of cotton clothes and cotton pants were finished. Ding Jun took the money and went to the Chen family’s main residence. She gave Mother Chen, Li Qin, and the others the corresponding money. She gave Chen Zhimin’s wife’s share to Chen Zhimin. Li Qin took the money and thanked Ding Jun profusely.

As she thought of something, Ding Jun looked at Li Qin and smiled. “Sister Li Qin, now that the cotton-padded clothes are done, I still need some manpower to make the pastries. Are you willing to help me? I will pay you a reasonable salary.”

Li Qin was stunned for a moment. Her eyes narrowed into stars as she smiled. She seemed to have thought of something, and a look of embarrassment appeared on her face. “I’m willing, but I’m afraid that I’m too stupid and can’t help you with anything. What should I do?”

Ding Jun said, “It’s fine. It’s very simple. Help me deal with the ingredients needed to make the pastry. I’ll teach you how to do it.”

Li Qin looked at everyone in embarrassment and said gratefully, “Thank you so much.”

Ding Jun also smiled.

In the afternoon, Ding Jun finished selling the cakes and was about to close the stall when she saw Ding Ling running over from afar. Ding Ling was crying like a pear blossom in the rain. She ran too fast and lost her footing, and fell down again with a plop. Ding Jun frowned and went up to greet her. Only then did she see that Ding Ling was still carrying her school bag.

When Ding Ling saw that Ding Jun, it was as if she saw her savior. She immediately wanted to rush up and hug her. Ding Jun took a step back and helped Ding Ling steady herself. “What’s wrong?”

Ding Ling was crying badly, and she was also stuttering. Ding Jun watched her cry, and after a long while, she finally stopped. “Sister, mother wants me to marry someone, and it’s a lame second marriage man! Sob, sob…. That man gave our family 150 yuan as a betrothal gift, and mother accepted it and even asked me to marry him immediately!”
