"Do you think those medicinal herbs she obtained were given to her by that strange system she has?"
"I feel the same way."
"Then tell me, where did that system get all that stuff from?" Surely they can't just get whatever they want, right? If that were the case, it would be a huge help to the country. Wouldn't it be incredibly awesome to just research advanced weapons directly?
Sun Kaicheng shook his head. He was puzzled too. He had heard that the ginseng was still covered in fresh mud. How could someone who had been in sight for almost the entire time obtain such things? Were the Shao family members really blind? They were willing to do anything for the sake of profit.
Qian Xiao, why didn't she encounter such a good thing? She certainly wouldn't turn herself into a ghost. It would be so much better if she secretly obtained more information for the country, so that the country could stand up sooner and the people's lives would be much better.
The difference in people's thoughts is really huge. Even if someone is good-looking, can they eat it?
"Let's figure it out quickly, otherwise we'll get scared every time we see it like this, it'll make us sick," she said. She was even a little envious of those who couldn't see the true nature of the woman, at least they saw a great beauty and it was pleasing to the eye.
Shao Yifang glanced at the two people who hurriedly walked past with some confusion. Ever since she became beautiful, everyone who saw her wanted to stick their eyes to her. Why did these two people seem not to have seen her at all?
"Fangfang, dinner's ready. Is something wrong?" A boy looked at Shao Yifang with a fawning expression, his eyes practically glued to her face.
Shao Yifang's thoughts were interrupted, and she immediately forgot her suspicions.
"Let's go eat Western food, I haven't had it in ages."
No way! I've never eaten Western food. Just thinking about the hardships she's endured over the past eighteen years fills me with resentment.
She should have been born into a life of luxury, but her parents abandoned her and sent her to the countryside. From the age of four or five, she had to do housework and farm work, living a life worse than that of the real children in the village.
If it weren't for the system, she wouldn't even dare to imagine whether she would have to live in the countryside for the rest of her life. She was extremely grateful to the system, so she did whatever the system asked her to do without ever asking why.
They really think that bringing her back and treating her well for a few days will erase the disgusting things they did to her? What a pipe dream! Once she's established herself and found a reliable backer, she'll send the entire Shao family to hell.
After having a Western meal, Shao Yifang was walking home. She looked around and saw no one. Suddenly, a rectangular wooden box appeared in her hand. The person who had been secretly following her was shocked. Was he seeing things? Did that wooden box just appear out of nowhere?
He had been following Shao Yifang for several days. Shao Yifang never carried a backpack or anything when she went out, but every time it seemed like she was about to go home, something would suddenly appear in her hand. He had thought he was seeing things before.
He saw it clearly today; that thing suddenly appeared out of thin air. No, he had to report it immediately.
Shao Yifang looked at the wooden box in her hand and smiled. If Qian Xiao and Sun Kaicheng were here, they would definitely be so scared that they would have nightmares at night.
It's strange, but the members of the Shao family are all good-looking, especially the wives who came later. I don't know if Shao Yifang has a genetic mutation, but her facial features are similar to those of the Shao family, but every organ looks very strange.
The combination is a bit scary, otherwise my parents wouldn't be so frightened that they wouldn't dare to sleep at night.
Sun Kaicheng watched Qian Xiao eat heartily. How come he never realized how cute Erdan was when he ate? His cheeks were bulging out, just like a little hamster.
Thinking of the hamster, Sun Kaicheng suddenly remembered the hamster he had seen in the apocalypse, the one the size of a small car. He shuddered. How could he compare Erdan to a hamster? Erdan was much cuter.
"Eat slowly, you can eat your fill. I've already talked to Aunt Qin, and she's packed your food and rice in a lunchbox. You can heat it up when you get back to your dorm."
Qian Xiao swallowed the food in her mouth with difficulty, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Sun Kaicheng: "You even packed it for me?"
She thought that after this meal, she didn't know when the next one would be, so she tried to eat more so that the oil in her stomach would last for a long time.
Ever since learning that the owner of the space was Sun Kaicheng, Qian Xiao hadn't entered the space except to tend to the fields. He was even more embarrassed to ask Shuangdan for payment anymore. Without those sources of income, Qian Xiao had become very frugal with his food lately.
"Yes, how about I bring you over for a meal once every two weeks from now on?" He knew that Erdan wouldn't allow Shuangdan to ask him for anything anymore, and without these things, Erdan would definitely go hungry.
It must be said that Comrade Erdan is very careful and cautious. She will not easily touch the ill-gotten gains in her space, for fear of letting others discover that something is wrong with her.
"Really?" Qian Xiao almost couldn't control her smile.
You can't laugh, you can't laugh, you absolutely can't laugh, that would be too unprofound.
"Well, that's too kind of you. How about you bring me here and I'll treat you?" Anyway, she had a box of ill-gotten gains, and Sun Kaicheng knew where the money came from, so he wouldn't report her.
“We’ll take turns, one person at a time. I need to eat too, how can I let you pay for everything?” After he created the energy-saving and inexpensive water pump, he received a bonus and officially became a researcher, receiving a monthly salary.
Although it's not a lot, it's definitely higher than a normal worker's wage. It's enough to buy more food for Comrade Erdan. If he researches more things that benefit the country and the people in the future, the bonus will be enough for Comrade Erdan to eat to his heart's content.
Watching Erdan eat so heartily, he felt a pang of sadness. He knew that Erdan had never truly experienced what it felt like to be stuffed when he was little, all to save on food rations.
"Okay, okay, can you take me out for Peking duck next time? I'll pay, you pay for the tickets, okay? I don't have many tickets."
The main problem was that all the tickets had expired, which really upset her.
"Sure, just tell me what you want to eat, and I'll take you to the best place." It seems I'll have to ask my third sister where all the good food is when I get back today, so I can remember it and take Erdan there to eat.
Qian Xiao smacked her lips, wondering how the roast duck tasted different at this time compared to later generations. She had heard that the roast duck at this time was more authentic, so it must be incredibly delicious. She thought it would be best to buy some more and put them in her space so she could take them back to her family to try.
"By the way, take some local produce back with you for your family later. My grandparents sent me quite a bit a few days ago." She knew the importance of reciprocity.
