Chapter 15: A Sister as Beautiful as a Heavenly Fairy

This is the fertilizer factory!

There was a bus stop right outside the fertilizer factory gate. Wu Xiuxiu followed her family and took the bus directly to the gate of the fertilizer factory. After getting off the bus, she curiously looked around.

“Mom, Xiaoye, Xiuxiu, let’s go in quickly.” Wu Zhipeng waved to the women in his family and led them into the fertilizer factory.

Along the way, Wu Xiuxiu looked around like a curious child. The Wu family didn’t mind because Wu Xiuxiu had never been to a fertilizer factory before.

This factory was quite similar to the factories she’d seen in period dramas, only it looked even bigger than the ones in the dramas.

But in her memory, this fertilizer factory was originally a large factory with a lot of workers.

Wu Xiuxiu followed her family for a while before reaching the canteen.

Although Wu Zhipeng had told the leader that he was leaving early to pick up Wu Xiuxiu and the others, the factory workers had already all left work by this time. The canteen was full of workers eating, and the Wu family attracted a lot of attention as soon as they entered.

“Who’s that girl with the double braids next to Wu Zhipeng? She’s so beautiful, like a lotus flower emerging from the water. She’s really pretty!”

“Look at her eyebrows and eyes, she looks a little like Wu Zhipeng. She must be Wu Zhipeng’s sister. I heard he has a younger sister who’s much younger than him.”

“I didn’t expect Wu Zhipeng to be so plain-looking, and yet he has such a beautiful sister!”

Hearing the workers’ discussion, Wu Xiuxiu felt a strong curiosity about her own appearance.

Was she really that pretty?

Like a lotus flower emerging from the water, as beautiful as a heavenly fairy. How beautiful could that be?

After transmigrating to this world, Wu Xiuxiu had never looked in a mirror or seen her own face, so she didn’t know what she looked like.

Hearing the workers’ comments about her, she was shocked and secretly delighted.

What woman doesn’t love beauty? What woman doesn’t want to be a beautiful woman?

In her previous life, she had an ordinary appearance and had never been pursued by men. She couldn’t count how many times she had read novels where the female protagonists were all beautiful women, and she couldn’t help but think that it would be great if she could become a beautiful woman.

Unexpectedly, her dream had come true. How could she not be happy?

“Come on, let’s go get some food… I came to the canteen to greet the person in charge of serving food before I went to pick you up. I asked them to save some food for us, so there’s still some for us to eat. Don’t worry.” Wu Zhipeng pointed to the food serving area and said to his family.

“Big Brother, you’re so thoughtful, you think of everything!” Ding Hongjuan smiled.

Wu Zhipeng led his mother, wife, and sister to the food serving area. Wu Xiuxiu took a closer look and found that there were still several dishes left. It seemed like they had been specially saved for them.

“Zhipeng, you’re finally here. I’ve been waiting for you for ages. The food’s going to get cold if you don’t hurry up.”

There were several people serving food, and one of them, the oldest, had some white hair and beard. He looked like the head of the group. As soon as he saw Wu Zhipeng, he immediately said.

“Thank you, Uncle Lu.” Wu Zhipeng quickly took out a cigarette, lit one, and handed it to the old man.

“Lu Bo, this is my mother, this is my wife, and this little girl is my sister.” He introduced his family to Lu Bo.

“This is Lu Bo, he’s in charge of serving the food. He’s always taken good care of me, and he always gives me extra food when I get my meals.” After introducing Lu Bo to his family, he introduced Lu Bo to his family.

The three women of the Wu family immediately greeted Lu Bo and thanked him.

“You’re welcome… Zhipeng, your sister is really beautiful. Look at her delicate features, she can’t go to the countryside…

Someone like her wouldn’t be able to handle rural life. You, as her brother, need to find a way for her to stay in the city.”

Lu Bo waved his hand, looked at Wu Xiuxiu, and said to Wu Zhipeng.

Hearing this, the women of the Wu family knew that Lu Bo knew about Wu Xiuxiu being forced to go to the countryside. It didn’t need to be said, it was definitely Wu Zhipeng who told him.

“We’re trying to find a way for her… Didn’t I tell you she was hospitalized a few days ago? She was only discharged today, so we specially brought her to the canteen for a good meal today. We’re also celebrating her discharge as a family.

Someone like her, who gets sick just from getting wet in the rain, how could we let her go to the countryside alone? What if she gets sick often in the countryside?” Wu Zhipeng sighed, looked at his sister and shook his head, his face filled with love and worry.

Wu Xiuxiu’s heart warmed. Once again, she felt that her brother was truly good.

Wu Zhipeng chatted with Lu Bo for a while, then asked his family what they wanted to eat and asked Lu Bo to serve it.

The women of the Wu family quickly took out the special containers they brought with them. Wu Zhipeng also asked Lu Bo to take out the container he kept with Lu Bo specifically for serving food.

Wu Zhipeng and Lu Bo had a good relationship. Usually, after eating in the canteen, he would wash the container and leave it with Lu Bo. When he came back to eat, Lu Bo would directly take out his container and serve him food, which was convenient.

Wu Xiuxiu quickly looked over all the dishes: braised beef, Kung Pao chicken, stir-fried pork, tomato scrambled eggs, cold marinated preserved eggs, stir-fried green beans, shredded cabbage, and sauerkraut potato soup, a total of eight dishes.

Braised pork was definitely a must. Not only did the original owner like to eat braised pork, but she also loved it.

Kung Pao chicken also looked good. She also wanted Kung Pao chicken, and then…

“I think you should take all these dishes. They’re all specially reserved for you. You won’t be able to finish them all, so take the leftovers home for dinner. I’ll give you a discount…

Just count it as two meat and two vegetables, only eight cents. It’s originally one yuan and fifty cents for everything. Consider it a celebration for your little girl’s discharge!”

Lu Bo glanced at the workers eating nearby and said to the Wu family in a low voice.

Hearing this, the Wu family all showed happy smiles and quickly thanked Lu Bo. Wu Xiuxiu suddenly felt a lot of goodwill towards Lu Bo.

This Lu Bo was a pretty good person!

Although he only gave them a few cents discount, a few cents wouldn’t even be picked up on the ground in modern times. But in this era, money was valuable, and a few cents could buy a lot of things.

Wu Zhipeng asked Lu Bo for two pounds of rice. Lu Bo also gave him a discount. Two pounds of rice only cost one cent. In this way, three meat, four vegetables, and one soup all cost only nine cents. Wu Zhipeng handed Lu Bo one yuan and got one cent in change.
