Ning Xuan never expected that going on a vacation and hiking to relax would lead to disaster. A mischievous kid disturbed a hornet's nest and sprinted away, but she, with a body aged beyond her...
Chapter 35 has been found.
Unlike Wang Erya, who was still somewhat apprehensive, Lin Yuhan, a modern woman, immediately thought of the word "cultivation" when she saw that most of these things were outside the realm of science. She quickly recalled Ning Xuan asking her to buy cultivation novels.
Although Lin Yuhan had some suspicions about Ning Xuan's possession of these fantastical items despite living in the 1970s, she didn't cross the line and simply completed the transaction happily.
Then, just like Ning Xuan, Lin Yuhan immediately bound the storage ring to her with blood. She then tried it on household items and found that she could indeed retrieve and put them away with her mind, which was very convenient.
Lin Yuhan also put most of the valuable items she had bought during this period into her storage ring.
Lin Yuhan initially thought that since the ring was so beautiful and connected to her consciousness, it wouldn't fall off, so she would just put it on. But then she thought, what if some reclusive expert could recognize the storage ring? Wouldn't that cause her trouble?
Therefore, Lin Yuhan chose to hide the storage ring, just to be on the safe side.
Lin Yuhan bought a house recently and has already received the property certificate. She also bought a lot of gold jewelry. In addition, she has not yet sold all the antiques that Ning Xuan traded to her. She put all these valuable items into her storage ring.
Although designer handbags are expensive, some of them should be displayed, so Lin Yuhan didn't put them away.
Lin Yuhan also carefully put away the life-saving pills she had just received.
Finally, she stared blankly at the beauty pill for a while before deciding to take it.
The effect was truly immediate. Less than a minute after eating it, a lot of dirty stuff appeared on Lin Yuhan's body. It was not only sticky but also smelly, so Lin Yuhan quickly ran to the bathroom to take a shower.
After taking a shower, no more dirt came out. Looking in the bathroom mirror, Lin Yuhan found that her skin was now glowing white. Even with her face almost touching the mirror, she could hardly see any pores on her skin. It was so delicate and smooth, like a baby's.
My goodness, this is so beautiful! It truly is an elixir of life!
Lin Yuhan felt that she had changed too much and was a little hesitant to go out directly. So she changed her clothes, put on a mask, and then went out to buy yarn, tools, and knitting books for Ning Xuan.
She plans to download some knitting tutorial videos later, which will be easier to watch than books and allow her to learn directly from them.
.
Ning Xuan had no idea how effective the beauty pills were; she only knew that these pills were definitely all quite good. She didn't plan to take the beauty pills right now. In this era, being too good-looking without any power or connections was actually a disadvantage.
In other words, beauty alone is always a bad hand, or even a disaster.
After Ning Xuan finished trading with her two long-time trading partners, she spaced out for a while and started rummaging through the warehouse looking for something to eat. Just as she took out a meat floss cake, there was a knock on the door outside the yard.
Ning Xuan could only put it back first, and then quickly wiped her hands clean with a wet wipe before leaving the room. At the door, she met Xu Jiajia, who had also come out after hearing the knocking.
"It sounds like the captain's voice. I wonder what it is about," Ning Xuan said to Xu Jiajia.
The two opened the door, and sure enough, there was the captain outside, but besides Zhou Jianguo, there were two other unfamiliar men.
“Xu Zhiqing, these two said they’re here to visit relatives. From her description, I think they’re looking for you. Do you know them?” Zhou Jianguo moved slightly to make sure Xu Jiajia could see the two people behind her.
The two unfamiliar men were Zhang Qiang's henchmen, one of whom was Gou Sheng.
When Gousheng first saw Xu Jiajia, he exclaimed how beautiful she was. The second time he saw her, he had a feeling that he had found the right girl, and that Qiang Ge must have found the right one.
She's very pretty, with fair skin, big, watery eyes, and two low ponytails. Her hair is also very beautiful, and she's accompanied by a bratty girl.
Everything matches up!
Gou Sheng was extremely excited.
Looking at the two men in front of her, especially the one on the left with a strange expression, Xu Jiajia felt particularly uncomfortable. She said to Zhou Jianguo, "Captain, I don't know them. They must have come to the wrong place."
Remembering Qiang Ge's instructions not to alert the enemy, Gou Sheng quickly said, "Oh, Captain Zhou, we really did come to the wrong place. It's all my relative's fault. He wrote to me asking me to find a relative to help me out, but he didn't explain clearly. I'd better go back and make a call to clarify."
Zhou Jianguo actually believed it, told Xu Jiajia that everything was fine, and then led the two people out of the brigade.
After leaving the brigade, Gousheng was overjoyed. He had finally found the person. After searching for so many days, Qiang Ge's temper had been growing stronger every day. Now he could finally receive credit instead of being scolded.
So Gou Sheng rushed back to the commune and immediately went to report the situation to Zhang Qiang.
When Zhang Qiang heard Gou Sheng's description of her as very fair-skinned and beautiful, he felt that he had found the right person.
"Jiajia, what a lovely name! She truly lives up to her name and is a beautiful woman!" Zhang Qiang thought of the beauty he had seen before, and a lewd smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
But hearing Gou Sheng's description, he got angry again, "That's your future sister-in-law! From now on, none of you are allowed to look at her too much. If you dare to peek, I'll gouge your eyes out!"
Gou Sheng quickly bowed and said yes, then was kicked by Zhang Qiang and left Zhang Qiang's house.
Because of Zhang Qiang's family's power and influence, Gou Sheng's family got their jobs through Zhang Qiang, so Gou Sheng was used to currying favor with Zhang Qiang and didn't react at all to Zhang Qiang's frequent beatings and scoldings.
Gousheng was in a hurry to report the situation and forgot that he had someone with him, which was Tiezhu, who had gone to Hongxing Commune with him.
Tiezhu's family was also poor. Then his parents met Gousheng's parents. Gousheng's parents thought that since Gousheng had gotten a job by currying favor with Zhang Qiang, they should also help Tiezhu's family. So they asked Gousheng to take care of Tiezhu.
Tie Zhu is a rather dull person who doesn't talk much. He just keeps to himself and doesn't know how to please others, so he's not on Zhang Qiang's radar.
"Brother Sheng, is that how that person usually treats you? Aren't you angry?" Tie Zhu said sullenly.
Gousheng quickly covered Tiezhu's mouth, "Are you out of your mind? Don't talk nonsense!"
Once they were far away from Zhang Qiang's house, Gousheng said to Tiezhu, "Zhuzi, my family has no power or influence, and my reputation is worthless. You don't need to feel sorry for me. If it weren't for Brother Qiang, would my parents have a stable job? Getting kicked and scolded a few times is nothing; they didn't even lose a layer of skin."
Zhu Zi, I'm not trying to be mean, but why are you so tight-lipped? You need to be more quick-witted so that Brother Qiang will remember to give you a nudge.
But I've done a great job this time. I'll talk to Brother Qiang about getting your family a job too. You'd better live up to his expectations!
Tie Zhu remained silent. He thought of his father, who worked as a temporary manual laborer, his mother, who took medication year-round, and his younger sister, who was still in school. He nodded sullenly.
