Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 511

Chapter 511: Chapter 511: Women Should Care for Themselves as Well as Their Families

Lin Chuxia had taken a good few days of rest at home, which was also a way of comforting Qin Yang.

Every day, she made him delicious meals and accompanied him for a walk in the evening to help digest the food.

Yuan Bao, the family’s pet, had also been sticking close to her these past few days, making it feel like she had two big dogs clinging to her at home.

The pomegranate tree in the yard had fruit the size of small fists now, and one was already starting to turn red.

Quite a few of the flowers had wilted, and Qin Yang hadn’t gotten around to dealing with them yet. But, as for the vegetables in the garden, since she wasn’t home and Qin Yang rarely ate at home, he had given away plenty of the ripe produce to neighbors.

The bean plants had overgrown and weren’t replanted, so the whole vegetable patch had been cleared out.

Lin Chuxia carefully collected the flower seeds and was busy at work when someone called her name at the door.

Jiang Hong walked in with her child in her arms. "I heard from them that you were back yesterday—I didn’t believe it. Li Wei, that guy, never tells me anything. It was only after I asked that I found out you’ve actually returned."

Lin Chuxia smiled and moved a stool for her. "I’ve been back for two days, just tidying up at home. So many things need to be sorted after being away for such a long time."

"Aiya, why bother cleaning up? Mr. Qin is so efficient. Just look at your yard, aside from these flowers which he probably can’t bear to touch, everything else is immaculately tidy."

Jiang Hong truly envied Lin Chuxia.

"If my Li Wei could be half as capable as Mr. Qin, I’d be content. After work, all he does is lie in bed and play with the child. He doesn’t cook, and he’s never even touched a broom."

Lin Chuxia played with the child; Jiang Hong’s son was already half a year old, plump and robust, staring at her with his big, shiny black eyes and gnawing on his little fist.

"Let me hold him."

Lin Chuxia loved children immensely, reaching out to take the baby.

"Wow, he’s quite heavy."

"He’s a good eater. Now my breast milk isn’t enough to satisfy him. Li Wei bought him formula, and my mother-in-law also cooks him millet porridge and sometimes makes him egg custard."

Jiang Hong smiled broadly as she talked about her son.

Lin Chuxia pinched his little face—soft and firm. "Is your mother-in-law still here? Sounds like she knows how to take care of children."

These days, it’s rare for someone to cook millet porridge or egg custard for a child alone. At most, when they’re a bit older, some might feed them steamed buns in vegetable soup.

"This is the Li family’s eldest grandson, my mother-in-law really cares for him, so I don’t have to worry much," she glanced at Lin Chuxia and hesitated a little before speaking, "Chuxia, I came to see you today because I wanted to ask you something..."

"Mm? Go ahead."

Jiang Hong swallowed uneasily before speaking cautiously, "Well, it’s like this: my Stone is getting bigger, and at home, it’s just my mother-in-law and me looking after him, which seems superfluous. I was thinking of finding something to do. Is your Bun Shop hiring?"

So that’s what it was.

Lin Chuxia smiled slightly, "It’s great that you have this idea, but the Bun Shop might not be convenient. How about becoming a sales clerk for selling clothes?"

The Bun Shop was on track and new hires were quickly filled as needed, but the business at Huamei Mall was continuously expanding and desperately needed more staff.

Jiang Hong’s eyes lit up, "Can I do that?"

She had, of course, preferred to sell clothes but was too shy to bring it up.

"Why not? Jobs are done by people, and if you’re willing to learn diligently, you can do it. Plus, the mall is close to home, and you won’t have to get up early for work."

"Chuxia, you’re so kind," Jiang Hong was moved to tears, "Having you as a friend, I’m incredibly lucky."

"Don’t say that just yet. Have you discussed this with your husband, Li Wei? I don’t want to cause any disagreements between you two."
