Song Yan never thought she would experience a day of transmigrating into a book. Well, if she transmigrated, she transmigrated! The 1970s weren't that scary.
However, she didn't expec...
Song Yan: "What's wrong? Who upset you?" Xia Juntao followed behind Ruomei. "You upset her?"
"Not really!" Xia Juntao said.
“If you’ve offended someone, you’ve offended them; if you haven’t, you haven’t. What do you mean by ‘it doesn’t count as offending anyone’?” Song Yan stopped rocking in the rocking chair.
Shen Ruomei: "He really didn't do anything to me. I just don't want to partner with him to sell goods anymore."
Shen Ruomei snatched the bundle from Xia Juntao's hands. It contained the clothes they hadn't sold that day. "Let me count how many clothes are left. I'll give you the cost price." She then tossed her handbag to Xia Juntao. "Hurry up and count the money, and divide it up!"
The two of them partnered up to sell things, and they always did quite well.
"Everything's fine, why break up the group?" Xia Juntao said.
"You said you were helping me back then, but I won't let you help me for nothing."
Later you said you also wanted to sell goods, so you'll work with me for now.
"Now I don't need your help anymore, and you can sell goods too, so it's perfect for us to split up!" Shen Ruomei's tone was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.
Shen Ruomei had already started counting the clothes. Xia Juntao grabbed her and stopped her.
Xia Juntao: "You can't be so disloyal, can you? Just consider it helping me out, okay? Let's not split up for now."
Song Yan sensed a lot of gossip in the conversation.
Song Yan: "What's wrong? Who upset you?" Xia Juntao followed behind Ruomei. "You upset her?"
"Not really!" Xia Juntao said.
“If you’ve offended someone, you’ve offended them; if you haven’t, you haven’t. What do you mean by ‘it doesn’t count as offending anyone’?” Song Yan stopped rocking in the rocking chair.
Song Yan was bound to ask what happened.
It turns out that the educated youth who went to the countryside with Xia Juntao have now returned to the city.
She's also from Kyoto, and a fellow townsman of Xia Juntao. They were quite familiar with each other when they lived in the countryside.
I saw Xia Juntao selling clothes today, so I offered to help him.
A college student is now selling clothes.
This female educated youth definitely needs to be asked.
Xia Juntao said he was helping a classmate, but the female educated youth got carried away while helping and even started criticizing Ruomei.
They say Xia Juntao got into university, a college student! A prodigy! How could he be setting up a stall here?
Shen Ruomei also had a temper. This was her own business. She told this educated youth to go back to where she came from and stop interfering.
Xia Juntao didn't give her a friendly look either.
Who knew that this female educated youth would actually bring in the neighborhood auntie in charge of the neighborhood.
No one regulates buying and selling now, but if someone comes to us, we'll definitely have to take action.
Shen Ruomei, who was selling goods, had to pack up her stall and move to another location.
This really made her furious.
Because the change of location caused a delay, Shen Ruomei said she had bought fewer clothes than she should have.
Song Yan asked Xia Juntao, "What was your relationship with that female educated youth before?"
Xia Juntao touched his nose. "She wanted to date me, but I didn't agree."
I've always considered her just a friend.
Shen Ruomei: "Whether you're a couple or just friends, you're delaying my earning time, do you even know that?"
It's as if I snatched you away from her! The way she looks at me is as if I'm immoral.
She's sick!
Don't tell me I wasn't dating you. Even if I were, I, Shen Ruomei, wouldn't be trying to steal your boyfriend.
"If all the men in the world died out, I'd go steal someone else's husband!"
"Are you my classmate? Are you my friend?" Xia Juntao's voice suddenly rose.
Shen Ruomei didn't want to pay attention to Xia Juntao, but she still answered, "Yes!"
Xia Juntao continued, "You can tell that I'm definitely not dating her."
I used to think that because she was pursuing me, she must have feelings for me. But what you saw today, was that really feelings?
I think she's going to cling to me now; it can't be just my imagination!
Shen Ruomei nodded, "That should be the case."
“You’re my classmate, you’re my friend. Look, she’s starting to cling to me. Instead of helping me, you’re going to break us up.”
"Are you my classmate, my friend?" Xia Juntao questioned.
Song Yan: Xia Juntao is quite good at leading the conversation!
"What can we do? We already have so little time to sell goods, and her meddling will only delay our earnings even more!" Shen Ruomei angrily threw down the clothes she had picked up.
"Let's count the money first!"
"Then help me think of a way to get rid of that 'dog skin plaster'!" Xia Juntao said, putting the clothes away.
Xia Juntao described the female educated youth as a leech.
Shen Ruomei's mood improved a little.
The two of them were arguing wildly just now, and now they're counting money together?
In terms of social experience, Xia Juntao clearly has more.
Although Shen Ruomei is worldly-wise, she is still a naive girl when it comes to emotions.
Song Yan could tell that the rabbit was not far from being eaten.
When Song Yan turned around, he saw Wen Dajun looking enviously at the closed room.
Xia Juntao and Ruomei had just entered the side room.
Is Wen Dajun envious of them?
Wen Dajun felt someone watching him and immediately turned around. He found it was Song Yan. He wasn't embarrassed at all.
He had finished all the work that needed his help, and now he was leaving.
Song Yan invited him to stay for dinner at his home, but Wen Dajun refused.
Song Yan asked Di Minxia to fetch some prepared items for Wen Dajun to take back. Wen Dajun agreed to this.
Soon everyone returned. Everyone seemed to have gained something from today and was quite happy.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was especially happy, because with the profit from today's purchases, she would be able to pay back the money she owed Song's father.
Everyone is happy today.
