"Jingyan, let me help you wind the yarn. Are you knitting a sweater for your little brother?"
"Oh, this one is for my boyfriend, and the next one is for my younger brother." She also wants to buy some more yarn to knit one for each of her parents who haven't arrived yet.
As for her own, it can be listed last.
She has thermal underwear in her room, which she wears underneath so no one can tell.
"Jingyan, you're so good to your boyfriend, but he's also very good to you."
"I'm so envious! You should find one too!"
Jiang Manyue shook her head: "I'm not as lucky as you. I haven't met the right person yet."
Luo Jingyan spent the whole morning in the house knitting with Jiang Manyue. At noon, she made noodles and invited Jiang Manyue to eat with her.
During my lunch break, I went into the space to build a fence for the chicks that were about to hatch.
When making a fence, first mark out the size of the chicken coop on the open ground, then dig a small trench around the coop. Bury one end of the wooden sticks used for the fence into the trench. After burying the sticks, tie ropes to the sticks for reinforcement.
She planned to build a chicken coop of about 30 square meters, but stopped after completing less than a third of it. She will finish the rest when she has time.
I haven't been to the county town for several days, and I plan to go again tomorrow.
Upon arriving in the county town, she went to the black market to check on the situation as before. This time it was even worse; the original black market was now just an empty space, presumably because it had been raided and moved.
It may be temporarily closed and will reopen after a while.
She remembered that after the female lead arrived, she soon went to sell things in the black market, and she guessed that the reopening of the black market was also related to the female lead's powerful aura.
She should go to the family compound instead.
Last time Aunt Li wanted millet, oranges, and walnuts, so I'll get her some this time.
She walked to the vicinity of the food factory's residential compound, entered the space to disguise herself, prepared the goods to be sold and put them in her basket, then left the space with the basket on her back and entered the food factory's residential compound.
As soon as he entered, a woman stopped him: "Oh, young man, you've finally come! I wanted to buy your things last time, but you sold out. Do you have any rice left this time?"
"have."
Do you have any apples?
"We have them all, ma'am. How many do you want?"
"Give me five pounds of rice and three pounds of apples."
"OK."
The old woman took her to her home to make the transaction. Since everyone knew she was a seller, Luo Jingyan took out her own scale and weighed the rice and apples for the old woman.
Then I went to Aunt Li's house, found her, and sold her four catties of millet, three catties of oranges, and two catties of walnuts.
Aunt Li smiled and said, "Young man, I really enjoy buying your things. You always bring me whatever I ask for. I'll continue to buy from you in the future, so don't let me down."
"That's right, what the old lady needs is what I need. As long as I have it, I will do my best to meet her needs."
"Your mouth is as sweet as honey, you really know how to talk. Speaking of which, we're quite familiar now. I'll need to buy things from you in the future, and I still don't know your name. Even if you give me a fake name, I'll know how to address you."
“Auntie is a very insightful person. My pseudonym is Dong Xiao, but my real name is still Dong Xiao.”
"Hahaha, young man, you're quite the joker." Aunt Li laughed heartily. "Alright then, young man, I'll call you Xiao Dong from now on."
"Auntie, please make yourself at home."
Aunt Li followed Luo Jingyan into the courtyard and saw Qin Zhenzhen who had come back to get things. She said, "Zhenzhen, your grandma heard that we bought rice in the courtyard last time, and she wants to buy some too. Go and ask her to come and buy some."
Qin Zhenzhen immediately glanced at Luo Jingyan. Although the young man had his head slightly lowered, it was not hard to see that he was very handsome. She had never seen a man with such exquisite features before. Unconsciously, she was a little stunned. When Luo Jingyan looked up at her, her heart beat faster.
Aunt Li waved her hand in front of her eyes: "Zhenzhen, what's wrong? Didn't I tell you to go call your grandma?"
Qin Zhenzhen came to her senses. "My grandma doesn't need to come. I can buy it and bring it inside. Comrade, could you weigh out six jin of rice for me? Do you have any apples? I'd like to eat some. My sister-in-law is trying to conceive, so she needs some too. If you have any, please give me a lot."
"no problem."
Luo Jingyan gave her six catties of rice and five catties of apples, and then asked her, "I also have walnuts here, does your sister-in-law need them?"
"Then give me two pounds."
"OK."
After Qin Zhenzhen finished shopping, she glanced at Luo Jingyan a couple more times before carrying her things home.
"Little Dong, Aunt Zhang wants to buy your things too. Come with me to her house," said Aunt Li.
"OK."
Luo Jingyan followed Aunt Li to Aunt Zhang's house and sold her six catties of rice and two catties of apples.
Afterwards, there were other people in the yard who wanted to buy, and Luo Jingyan went to their homes to make the transactions. That way, if anyone came to check, she could say that she was a relative of the family and had come to deliver something to her relative.
After selling everything in her basket, Luo Jingyan had two apples left, which she gave to Aunt Li. Feeling relieved, she prepared to go outside to remove her makeup and go home.
Unexpectedly, before they had gone far and before they even had time to remove their makeup in the space, they saw Qin Zhenzhen being harassed by a man.
“Comrade Li Jianguo, how many times have I told you, I don’t like you. If you continue like this, I’ll report you for indecent assault.”
"I didn't do anything to you, so how can it be considered harassment? Zhenzhen, you should know that you can't afford to offend my family. Dating me will only benefit you, not harm you."
"Marriage is based on love. I don't have feelings for you, so I think dating you is pointless. You should find another girl."
“But I’ve taken a liking to you, Zhenzhen. Our two families are well-matched. If you marry me, I will definitely treat you well and won’t let you suffer any grievances. It will also benefit Uncle Qin.”
Li Jianguo's father works for the county party committee, and he also has relatives who are cadres in the municipal party committee. Qin Zhenzhen didn't dare to offend Li Jianguo, and she didn't want to date him, so she could only make up an excuse: "Comrade Li Jianguo, to be honest, I already have someone I like, and we've started dating. I didn't tell you before because I was afraid you would cause trouble for him."
"You have a boyfriend/girlfriend? Who is he/she?"
"It's me." A soft, slightly hoarse male voice came from not far away.
Luo Jingyan didn't want to meddle, but Qin Zhenzhen was Qin Grandma's family, so she couldn't just stand by and do nothing.
Qin Zhenzhen had only intended to fool Li Jianguo, but she never expected that someone would actually help her, and it was him.
Luo Jingyan walked up to Qin Zhenzhen. Luo Jingyan was 1.7 meters tall, half a head taller than Qin Zhenzhen, who was petite. Apart from being a little thin, the two of them didn't look too out of place standing together.
At this moment, Qin Zhenzhen's heart was pounding very hard, and it took a few seconds for it to calm down.
