Shen Jinran traveled back in time to the 1970s in a single day.
What? Life is hard during the famine?
Not afraid, not afraid.
She has a golden finger of her own, equipped with cou...
Chapter 81 Wow
Jinran has been extremely busy lately. Last time, the two little ones at home said they had boyfriends, and no matter how much Jinran tried to coax or bribe them, she couldn't get any real information.
Jinran was filled with sorrow; in the blink of an eye, she would be a mother-in-law.
The mountain produce was gradually brought home and stored. The vegetables in the private plot were also picked, dried, and the remaining roots were removed before replanting another batch.
The cabbages I planted during the second period of the hottest days of summer are growing well. I'll wait a little longer, finish all this work, dry the cabbages, and then I'll pickle them into sauerkraut.
Jinran planted more pickled mustard greens, which she really likes to eat. She plans to make some tofu jelly with them and stew them together later. Just thinking about it makes her mouth water.
Jinran dried everything that could be dried, including dried radish, shredded green beans, dried eggplant, and chili peppers.
She became a ruthless vegetable-cutting machine, and after doing this for a while, her knife skills improved dramatically.
Sometimes, Jinran would take the vegetables to her spatial dimension to chop them, which was more efficient.
The villagers haven't even started yet, but Jinran is already drying her things. Everyone praises her, saying that Jinran is a real workaholic. They say that in a few years, when she's older, she might even be awarded a model worker title.
"Model Worker" is the highest honor bestowed in this era, and Jinran is... quite proud.
The chickens at home lay three or four eggs every day, which she can't eat herself. After saving them for a while, she pickles them. Including the ones she smuggled out, she has more than two hundred eggs.
Jinran checked the date; it was almost time to make the deal with Old Man Mo, and she had everything prepared.
Let's finish this quickly!
Jinran was busy living her life, but she didn't forget to study. After all, she wanted to go to university when the college entrance examination was reinstated, and she wanted to experience the prestige of a prestigious university.
Since nearly miscarrying after being pushed down last time, Shen Yanhong has been resting at home to recover from her pregnancy, and she has been holding a grudge ever since.
Meng Fan knew he had gone too far, so he kept a low profile and smiled gently at Shen Yanhong.
Shen Yanhong quickly forgave Meng Fan. In fact, she didn't have much resentment towards Meng Fan, but she hated Huang Yuanyuan to the core.
Shen Yanhong was still thinking of finding a foolproof opportunity to completely ruin Huang Yuanyuan. Then, she came up with an idea in a rather peculiar way.
She sobbed and said to her brother Shen Qing, "Brother, please help me, I really can't swallow this."
Shen Qing frowned and said, "How can I help you? I'm also embroiled in a lot of lawsuits right now. Why don't you offer to help me out?"
Shen Yanhong lowered her head, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes. She felt that her brother was truly hopeless. She had clearly told him that Chen Ting was no good, but he just wouldn't listen and ended up making such a big mistake.
Shen Yanhong straightened her expression and said pitifully, "You are my dearest brother. If I don't come to you when I need something, who else can I turn to? Huang Yuanyuan's family is not an ordinary family. Her parents are both officials in Beijing. It was out of necessity for her to become an educated youth. Compared to her, I have no advantage at all. What if, when the college entrance examination is reinstated, she and Meng Fan go back to Beijing together? What will be left for me then?"
When Shen Qing heard that Huang Yuanyuan's parents were officials in the capital, his eyes flickered, and he asked calmly, "So what do you want me to do?"
Shen Yanhong's face was contorted with rage as she said viciously, "You secretly ruined her face, but don't let anyone find out. I've gotten my revenge, but Meng Fan will never be able to look at her again."
Shen Qing looked his younger sister up and down, never expecting her to be such a ruthless wolf!
Shen Qing smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll take care of it!"
Just as Jinran was happily recording her wealth after finishing her transaction with Old Man Mo, a message left her stunned.
This news was brought by Da Hong. "Nini, do you know? Your uncle's son, Shen Qing, is going to marry Huang Yuanyuan. It's said that Huang Yuanyuan accidentally fell into the river, and Shen Qing bravely intervened, resulting in them having physical intimacy, which was witnessed by everyone in the village."
Jinran was shocked for a whole year!
Even more shocked than her was Shen Yanhong: Shen Qing was going to marry Huang Yuanyuan?
What the hell is going on?
Didn't they say they ruined Huang Yuanyuan's appearance to make Meng Fan give up? Why did they bring her back?
Shen Yanhong was filled with anger and started acting out at home. Her aunt was at a loss. What if she didn't take responsibility and someone accused her son of indecent behavior? That wouldn't do. Her son was so outstanding; he couldn't have any stain on his reputation.
And most importantly, you can get a daughter-in-law for free without spending much on a bride price. Even if you don't really like her, what does it matter? You can just train her properly.
Then she looked at her daughter, who seemed like a crazy woman, with some disdain. Her aunt said directly, "You'll be married off soon, so why do you care who your brother marries? Alright, you've recovered enough. You can get married with your brother together, and it'll save you money."
Shen Yanhong looked at her mother in disbelief, "Mother, do you know what you're saying? That bitch Huang Yuanyuan was having an affair with Meng Fan before, and now she's going to be my sister-in-law? Is there anything more outrageous than this?"
The eldest aunt's eyes darted away, and she stammered, unable to speak.
