I awakened the cultivation panel.

Chapter 61. The Best Rice Dumplings in the World!

Although Chen Jingle no longer values ​​these few thousand yuan, he still chooses to accept them.

"Alright! Then I won't stand on ceremony."

Chen Jingle nodded, thought for a moment and said, "I've been thinking about a new project recently. If it goes well, I'll probably earn more than I do now."

"What project?" The two men's eyes lit up.

Chen Jingle shook his head and said, "It's just a preliminary idea. We don't know if it will succeed yet. If it does, we can discuss it in more detail later."

Seeing the two of them looking somewhat disappointed, he found it amusing.

It seems they've all tasted the sweetness of making money and are no longer satisfied with their previous salaries of four or five thousand yuan.

But it's normal.

While money can't solve all problems, it can solve most of them. Ordinary people like them naturally have no reason not to like money.

Even Chen Jingle wouldn't dare say he doesn't care about money or has no interest in it.

Those who earn money through hard work are alright, but those who make quick money and then go back to work are the most dangerous.

If you can't change your mindset, your life is ruined.

This is where the importance of maintaining a stable, high-to-medium income level becomes apparent.

Chen Jingle patted his two younger brothers on the shoulders: "Alright, let's focus on our work first. Don't squander your money. Digital products need to be upgraded, you can upgrade, but don't upgrade recklessly. Learn to save money, save for three to five years, and you'll have enough cash flow, which will make things much easier."

The two nodded quickly, showing that they were still listening.

……

"By the way, Brother Le, Sister Xin said she's coming with Sister Qi tomorrow," Chen Wenjie suddenly said.

Chen Jingle asked in surprise, "Is Ruoqi coming tomorrow too? She's almost eight months pregnant, isn't she?"

Chen Ruoqi is the second daughter of her uncle's family, Chen Wenjie's second older sister, and the same age as Chen Jingle, only two months younger than him.

Chen Jingle was born in the 10th month of the lunar calendar, which was already late enough, but Chen Ruoqi was even later, born on the 28th day of the 12th lunar month, just two days before the Lunar New Year.

I hadn't been going back to my parents' home much before because I was pregnant and wanted to stay home and rest.

She got married in the middle of last year. Her husband's family owns a textile business in the local area. Their stall is quite large and their financial situation is decent.

Chen Ruoqi was working, but the job didn't pay well, so her in-laws told her to quit and stay home to rest and prepare for her pregnancy.

Going out at this time...maybe she wants to go back to her parents' house to clear her head?
Thinking about it carefully, it seems like it's been almost half a year since we last met.

"probably."

Chen Wenjie scratched his head, having forgotten when his second sister had become pregnant.

He usually only has King of Glory and Peacekeeper Elite on his mind, he has never paid attention to these other games, as long as his parents know.

"Okay, I'll go there tomorrow morning and see if there's anything I can help with."

Chen Jingle nodded.

It's easy to imagine that a sumptuous feast will be prepared tomorrow.

It feels like people in Jiangbei spend all their meager wages on food.

Chen Wenjie added, "My mom said she's going to make zongzi (sticky rice dumplings)."

"sure."

Chen Jingle nodded with a smile.

In most parts of the country, people have the custom of eating zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) during the Dragon Boat Festival.

In Jiangbei, most of the rice dumplings are meat-filled. Although Chen Jingle can also eat sweet rice dumplings, he insists that meat-filled rice dumplings are the best in the world!

"Guangming, are your parents coming over tomorrow?" Chen Jingle asked.

Li Guangming quickly shook his head: "I probably can't come, I have to work."

His parents, one working in another city and the other in a restaurant, rarely get holidays; often, they have to work even when others are on vacation.

"What about you? Aren't you coming over for a meal?"

"Uh, I made plans to go out with my girlfriend beforehand," Li Guangming said with an embarrassed smile.

"...Alright, have fun."

Chen Jingle shook his head and smiled.

Seeing that nothing was wrong, he waved his hand to shoo people away and went back inside to continue teaching the parrot to talk.

……

On the first day of the Dragon Boat Festival, the internet was full of discussions about where to go for fun. Everyone says the economy is bad, so why are so many people traveling?

There seem to be too many rich people.

Chen Jingle woke up early, washed up quickly, and went to her grandparents' house.

For people in Jiangbei, the Dragon Boat Festival is actually quite a grand occasion, with dragon boat races every year, both on rivers and at sea.

However, Chen Jingle rarely went to watch. The scene was packed with people, and with the weather like this, it was really unnecessary to suffer like this.

As usual, I looked around, chose my task, and started helping with the work.

The hardest and most tiring tasks, such as slaughtering chickens and ducks, had already been taken care of by his uncles. All that was left for him was to simply prepare the vegetables.

Easily!

After washing the vegetables, just fold the paper money and ingots.

"Jingle, do you know how to wrap zongzi?" Auntie asked.

"Yes."

"Then you can help me wrap them, I'm not very good at it." The aunt smiled embarrassedly.

Chen Jingle pulled over a stool: "Okay, I'll do it!"

I think making zongzi is quite simple. Just do this, this, and this, and you've wrapped one zongzi.

I shouldn't compare them to my aunt's; mine do look more presentable. I never imagined that even wrapping zongzi required talent.

There's really no skill involved in wrapping regular bamboo leaves, whether it's a triangular or long rice dumpling.

When I was a child, I ate Legu zongzi. It was interesting to wrap and quite difficult, but unfortunately no one knows how to make it anymore.

(Legu Zongzi)

Chen Wenjie came downstairs, seemingly having just woken up, still sleepy-eyed. It was unclear whether he had gone out late last night or stayed up all night playing games.

I was urged to hurry up and wash up, and then go with my grandmother to worship the gods and ancestors.

The wrapped rice dumplings should be put into the pot to steam quickly, so that there is enough time before they can be eaten.

……

It was just past 9 o'clock again, and that familiar Highlander appeared under the longan tree once more.

"Ta-da! Good morning, everyone!"

Chen Kexin carried Lin Yuqing out of the car, shouting and waving to everyone with a big smile.

Oops, what a mess!
There probably aren't many people like her who go back to their parents' home several times a month.

Chen Jingle shook his head and smiled, and the next second he had Lin Yuqing in his arms.

Lin Yuqing hugged his neck tightly and giggled, rubbing her chubby little face against him. Chen Kexin, on the other hand, looked relieved and begged for forgiveness.

Lin Guofeng was busy taking the gifts out of the trunk, and he was overjoyed to see this.

Not long after, Chen Ruoqi and her husband arrived.

"Hi, Ruoqi, Zhang Yue."

Chen Jingle greeted them while holding Lin Yuqing in his arms.

"Hey Chen Jingle, what are you doing with Yuqing?"

Chen Ruoqi asked with a surprised smile.

Zhang Yue, holding her hand, greeted Chen Jingle with a smile as well.

"There's nothing I can do about it, that's how it is when kids like you," Chen Jingle replied with a smile, holding the baby in one hand.

Compared to Lin Guofeng, Zhang Yue is a bit thinner and has a somewhat aloof personality. It was worse before, but it's gotten better now.

To put it simply, it's being pretentious.

Aside from that, there are no other problems. He doesn't smoke, drink excessively, or gamble.

"Where's Chen Wenjie? Isn't he up yet?" Chen Ruoqi asked.

Chen Jingle said, "He's up. He just came back from worshipping the gods, so he's probably gone back to his room."

As her aunt came out of the kitchen, she couldn't help but scold, "He must have gone back to his room to play games again. All he does all day is hold his phone; he'll go blind sooner or later. He doesn't even tidy up his room; it's a mess like a doghouse..."

Hmm, those words sound familiar; I feel like I've heard them somewhere before.

Seeing that everyone was talking at once and it was getting a bit noisy, Chen Jingyue was about to slip away with Lin Yuqing when Chen Ruoqi grabbed her arm.
