Seeing that she had paid and received her receipts promptly, the salesperson carelessly stuffed them into the sack and dragged the sack away.
She was utterly bewildered. What was going on? How did she have so many banknotes? And if she was so wealthy, why would she even bother with those defective products?
Xie Yuyao, who was being nagged by her, walked happily on her way back to the hospital. She had gained a lot from this trip!
While in the warehouse, she remembered the purpose of her trip: to buy watches and radios.
Why were these two types of defective products chosen?
That's because she has a lot of tools in her space. She bought a defective watch and radio, and when she gets home, she can try to take them apart to see if she can fix them.
If it's fixed, you can resell it on the black market and make a good profit. If it can't be fixed, Zhao Honghui can take it apart for fun; don't men all love to tinker with machines?
When you're rich, you can do whatever you want.

When they arrived at the hospital, Li Weidong and Chen Kai were already there. Several male educated youths found it amusing to see her, now fully recovered and dressed in flowing clothes, dragging a large sack into the ward.
She is such a contradictory being, able to be both aloof and down-to-earth.
After hearing her explain the origins of the goods, Li Weidong was a little worried about her stubborn nature and advised her, "The staff at the department store all have connections. This time, it was because Manager Sun was easy to talk to. You never know who you might encounter in the future, so you should be more careful."
"Yes, I understand." Xie Yuyao nodded with a slight smile.
Li Weidong's words made Xie Yuyao laugh it off, but they jolted He Wenyao, who was deep in thought, back to reality.
After hearing this, He Wenyao started to think: He often gets the cold shoulder at the department store, could he also argue his way into buying a defective product?
Upon hearing Li Weidong's words, he suddenly realized: Xie Yuyao had Zhao Honghui, a local tyrant, protecting her, while he had nothing. He couldn't easily offend someone with a powerful background.
After chatting for a while, Xie Yuyao added one-third of the spiritual spring water to the thermos, and then followed Xiang Wenshan and He Wenyao to catch the bus back to the commune.
If there's one thing that's most uncomfortable about traveling back and forth, it's definitely taking the bus.
Upon arriving at Hongqi Commune, Xie Yuyao jumped out of the car and ran to the roadside to vomit.
"Drink some water and calm down."
Accompanied by a gentle sound, an open kettle was handed to me.
Zhao Honghui already knew she wouldn't be able to take the bus, so he prepared water and waited by the station. He held water in one hand and patted Xie Yuyao's back with the other, hoping to ease her discomfort.
Xie Yuyao took the water and drank a few sips, recovering her senses.
At this moment, Xiang Wenshan and He Wenyao, who was carrying a sack, walked over together.
He Wenyao: "Comrade Honghui, these are Xie Zhiqing's things."
Along the way, Xiang Wenshan and He Wenyao helped carry the sacks. Now that Zhao Honghui was picking up Xie Yuyao, there was nothing for them to do.
Zhao Honghui said sincerely, "Thank you for taking care of Yao Yao. Let's go to a restaurant for dinner together."
"Hey, it's nothing, let's head back now, maybe next time." Xiang Wenshan didn't want to be a third wheel, so he pulled He Wenyao away first.
Zhao Honghui didn't ask her what she bought. He easily picked up the sack and took Xie Yuyao to the state-run restaurant.
Since the food at home wasn't good, he planned to take Yao Yao to state-run restaurants for all three meals a day.
My mother's earnest admonitions from this morning still echoed in my ears, but what could I do? I couldn't let Yao Yao go hungry.
If it were someone else, he would probably say, "Being picky about food means you're not hungry enough," but when it comes to Yao Yao, he only feels that it's his own problem.
To ensure Yao Yao had a good meal, he secretly gave a gift to the experienced cook at the transport team's canteen, hoping to learn a few tricks from him.
Just like his mother said, you can't eat out every day. Since someone has to cook, he's willing to do it himself.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Xie Yuyao had little appetite due to motion sickness and wanted to eat strongly flavored noodles to stimulate her appetite.
Zhao Honghui isn't picky about food, so he simply ordered two bowls of noodles with minced meat sauce.
While waiting for the noodles, Xie Yuyao whispered to him about the department store, and didn't even hide the fact that she had returned the cloth coupons.
She omitted the fact that Manager Sun had given her cloth coupons in her explanation to Xiang Wenshan and the others. If they knew, they would probably say that she was foolish for choosing the less important thing over the greater one.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Honghui completely approved of her actions and said with regret, "I know that Manager Sun; he's a nice person. I should have introduced you to him when we went to the department store yesterday."
"Oh? How do you know all sorts of people?" Xie Yuyao asked curiously.
Looking at Yao Yao's big, blinking eyes, Zhao Honghui chuckled, "No, just a few. I'll write down a list for you later, so you can ask them for help if you need anything."
Xie Yuyao recalled a classic line: "Now I'm yours, so you'd better protect this weak man."
"Then this weak little woman like me will have to rely entirely on you for protection!" As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Yuyao started laughing to herself.
Zhao Honghui said seriously, "Okay!"
"Smile! Why are you so serious? No wonder Zhao Chunling always says you have a devilish face," Xie Yuyao teased.
Zhao Honghui smiled, his eyes filled with doting affection, and looked at the cheerful girl with focused and deep affection.
The noodles were ready, and Xie Yuyao looked at the large, hearty bowl of noodles in front of her, unsure how to start eating.
"What's wrong? Don't you want to eat? How about we order something else?" Zhao Honghui asked when he saw her hesitation.
Xie Yuyao denied it: "No, I just felt that this amount was too much, so I'll share half with you."
"You eat first, and give me the rest."
Seeing his matter-of-fact attitude, Xie Yuyao still asked the waiter to bring an empty bowl, poured out half of the noodles, and pushed it to Zhao Honghui.
"When you're out and about, pay attention to your image," she whispered to Zhao Honghui, who was sitting opposite her.
Zhao Honghui was secretly pleased and teased mischievously, "So, once we get home, does that mean I can do whatever I want with you?"
"You wish!" Xie Yuyao blushed again and glared at him.
Looking at Yao Yao, who was smiling sweetly and acting coquettishly, Zhao Honghui's heart melted completely.
It was already dark when we returned.
Zhao Honghui tied the sack to the back of his bicycle and pushed it, walking slowly alongside Xie Yuyao, who was shining a flashlight.
What used to be a tedious journey has become interesting.
"Yaoyao, I want to separate our household registrations and ask the brigade leader for a plot of land to build a house that belongs to both of us," Zhao Honghui said, revealing his plan.
Xie Yuyao was a little surprised: "You've already talked to your parents?"
She thought she would wait until her younger brother and sister got married before considering dividing the family property.
"Not yet, but they can't do anything to me."
Zhao Honghui didn't want to cause any trouble with his parents while Yao Yao was staying at his place, so as not to involve her.
However, once he makes a decision, Zhao Laoda and Yang Chunhua really can't change his mind, otherwise he wouldn't still be a bachelor in his late twenties.
