Before Going to the Countryside in the 70s, I Used My Space to Empty Out My Enemies

A modern wealthy young woman, Luo Jingyan, accidentally transmigrated to the 1970s, becoming a short-lived minor supporting character in a period novel. Her parents were framed, forcing her to take...

Chapter 8 Coveting

In broad daylight, it wouldn't be appropriate for a woman to hand something to the director. Even if she said it was from someone else, it's hard to guarantee that others wouldn't suspect anything.

She looked to the side and saw a little boy of about four or five years old, so she gave him an apple.

"Could you help me deliver this letter to that uncle? Just tell him it was given to him by a fellow uncle."

The little boy nodded. After Gao Tieshan and the director parted ways, Luo Jingyan had the little boy take the letter and run to the director, handing it to him.

"This is something my uncle asked me to give you."

When the director saw the words "whistleblower letter" written on the envelope, he immediately understood what was going on.

He patted the little boy on the head and then let him leave.

He didn't even subconsciously try to find out who the "uncle" the little boy was talking about was. That person deliberately sent someone else to deliver the report, so it must be inconvenient for him to come forward directly. Therefore, he didn't investigate who that person was.

After removing her makeup in her spatial dimension, Luo Jingyan wanted to pick a few apples to take home, but she couldn't find suitable packaging tools. She didn't dare take out the plastic bags in her space, and she didn't have the mesh bags commonly used in this era, so she could only pick two apples and put them in her pocket before heading home.

When she got home, Luo Changtian had already returned.

Before even entering the kitchen, I could smell a burnt smell wafting from inside; it must be Luo Changtian cooking.

When she went inside, she saw Luo Changtian standing in front of the stove, stirring the cabbage in the pot that had been overcooked.

Luo Jingyan took a towel to cushion the food, picked up the pot, and said, "Xiao Tian, ​​the food is burnt and can't be eaten. Throw it away."

Luo Changtian hung his head in frustration and guilt.

"Sister, am I really useless? I can't even cook a meal for the two of us properly."

Luo Jingyan comforted him, "It's okay, Xiaotian. It's not good to do it well the first time. If you want to learn to cook, I'll teach you and give you a chance to show off in the future. You'll be able to do it well in time."

Luo Changtian smiled and said, "Thank you, sister."

Luo Jingyan took an apple out of her pocket and gave it to Luo Changtian, "Xiaotian, you can have this. I bought it outside today."

Looking at the bright red and tempting apple, Luo Changtian couldn't help but drool.

"Sister, you should eat it."

Luo Jingyan patted her bulging pocket: "There's another one here."

Luo Changtian then took the apple, wiped it briefly with his hand, and took a bite. It was so sweet!

Luo Jingyan cleaned the pot, cut half a cabbage again, and had Luo Changtian watch her cook. Luo Changtian learned very seriously.

Luo Jingyan stir-fried some cabbage with vinegar and heated up some steamed buns. After the siblings finished eating, Luo Changtian took the initiative to clean up the dishes.

As soon as the director returned home, he took out the letter of denunciation. After seeing its contents, he was shocked to find that it was filled with letters of treason.

Although he had long suspected this second-in-command, he never expected that the guy would be so arrogant, not only colluding with the enemy but also trying to kill him.

His hands trembled, not from fear, but from anger. He carefully put away the letter, preparing to deploy an operation to arrest Gao Tieshan as soon as possible.

He didn't know who got these letters, but he was very grateful to that person.

In the afternoon, the director sent people to secretly control Gao Tieshan and several other related people through separate "talks." They implicated and denounced each other, and from this, they learned some other intelligence.

That evening, Luo Aiqing told Li Baojun and Li Hongying that Luo Jingyan and her brother had signed up to go to the countryside, and the father and daughter were overjoyed.

Because they still don't know that Gao Tieshan was arrested.

Li Hongying said, "Mom, it seems that the two of them are quite sensible. They know they can't stay in this city anymore, so they voluntarily went to the countryside."

Luo Aiqing said, "So we should strike first and take all the valuables from that house before they leave. I'm afraid they'll take them to the countryside."

"Mom, when are they leaving?"

"I don't know yet."

"Let's go to their house now and move our things, just in case they leave tomorrow and take everything with them."

Luo Aiqing said, "If the two of them were going to the countryside, they would definitely tell me first."

She suddenly remembered the incident of Luo Jingyan fighting with Li Hongying over the watch, and the change of locks on the Luo family's door, and felt that something was different from before.

So she immediately decided, "Okay, let's go to their house now without delay."

The three of them hadn't even finished their meal when they excitedly put down their bowls and chopsticks and went out together. Luo Aiqing locked the door, and they headed to the Luo family home together.

Luo Jingyan and Luo Changtian were having dinner when there was a knock on the door. Luo Changtian got up and said, "I'll go open the door."

He flung the door open, and the three members of the Li family rushed in.

Luo Jingyan suspected that the other party had ill intentions and was probably there to take something again.

As expected, Luo Aiqing immediately said, "Jingyan, why did you take Hongying's watch? It's fine for Hongying to wear it, but if you wear it, people will be suspicious, and it's not good for you."

Luo Jingyan wasn't buying it.

“I’ve asked around, and the watch was bought by my parents with their salaries. The process was all legitimate, and there was no mistake on their part. Aunt, please don’t lie to me. If you want Hongying to wear a watch, buy her one.”

Luo Aiqing clicked her tongue: "Isn't your aunt doing this for your own good? Jingyan, you should think twice before you act. If something goes wrong, you'll regret it to the core, and it won't be of any use."

"I know what I'm doing, Auntie, you don't need to worry about it."

She's just keeping it in her storage space and not wearing it, why should she let those ungrateful wretches benefit from it?

Li Hongying tugged at Luo Aiqing and gestured to her with her eyes, unwilling to accept that the watch was gone just like that.

Luo Aiqing said, "Jingyan, Changtian, the situation outside is very serious now. I think the Workers' Propaganda Team will definitely come to your house and ransack it again. I'd better take some more things with me so that they don't take anything away and you end up with nothing. As for the watch, you can give it to me if you want. If you don't give it to me and something happens, don't blame me for not warning you."

Luo Jingyan said, "Auntie, we don't need you to keep our things. I've already submitted my and Xiaotian's names to the list of people going to the countryside. We'll be leaving soon, and we need to take some things with us. Conditions in the countryside are tough, and we need money and coupons to buy supplies in advance. There will be many things we need to spend money on in the countryside. Auntie, please return the money and coupons, radio, sausages, cured meat, thermos, and military overcoat that you took from my house before."

Upon hearing this, Luo Aiqing felt a moment of panic.

Her original plan was to secretly send the two siblings to the countryside, so that when they found out, they would have no choice but to leave and wouldn't have time to ask her for money or things.

Unexpectedly, Luo Jingyan got there a step ahead of her.
