Chapter 8: Act bravely and get to know the noble person

Nan Jingyi’s calm voice was like thunder on the ground, attracting the attention and salute of the people nearby.

"Wow, five shops cost more than 200,000 yuan. You are a rich man!"

"This girl is really fearless. She really dares to buy. What if she doesn't make money?"

Nan Jingyi seemed not to hear, staring at her hands. market layout map.

Only she knows that the current price of a shop is 40,000 yuan, and the price will increase tenfold by 2005!

The person in charge of the investment office, a bald man, walked over quickly, shook hands with Nan Jingyi, and introduced the store in person.

"What's your surname, little girl? My surname is Liu, and I'm the director of the Investment Promotion Office. You young people are brave enough to work hard and have great vision!" the person in charge praised.

"My surname is Nan, Nan from the north and the south. Thank you. You are so flattering." She was neither humble nor overbearing. Hey, she couldn't keep a low profile even if she wanted to.

"Xiaonan, the five shops you selected are all in the best areas. The price will be 2,000 yuan more expensive than other shops. Do you think it's okay?"

"Director Liu, okay. Do you want to pay today or first? " Deposit?" She wanted to do it all at once.

Director Liu explained the situation and emphasized, "Pay a deposit first. Each store must pay a deposit of 2,000 yuan. Please leave us your phone number and address. Come and sign the contract and pay the full payment one week later, on the morning of December 2."

"Here is 10,000 yuan, please check." Nan Jingyi took out a wad of money from her bag and handed it over. Issuing receipts, signing, all done in one go, neatly and neatly.

She was in a good mood when she walked out of the investment office.

Nan Jingyi went shopping and bought her mother's favorite pastries and snacks. She also bought herself two pieces of clothing, two pairs of pants, and a pair of sneakers. She spent a total of five hundred yuan. She checked that it was already five o'clock in the afternoon and headed home.

On the bus, Nan Jingyi sat by the window in the last row, and there were many people on the bus.

As soon as she got on the bus, a short, wretched-looking man in front of her caught her attention. The man's right hand was in his pocket and his eyes were evasive. He was probably a pickpocket.

Nan Jingyi lowered her head and opened the bracelet. Through the function of the bracelet, she saw that there were clearly tools for committing crimes hidden in the pocket of this wretched man.

The see-through function of the bracelet is really great.

In the 1990s, there were many people in society who were not doing their jobs properly and there were many pickpockets. Pickpockets are mainly concentrated in crowded areas such as stations and shopping malls.

She subconsciously held her satchel in her arms and looked around. Almost all of them were old, weak, women and children, and a few elementary school students making up extra classes.

At this time, the pickpocket used the clothes on his hands as a cover. His hand was reaching for a woman's bag. The woman looked out the window. The bag had been opened, revealing her wallet, but she was unconscious.

Nan Jingyi couldn't help but become anxious and wanted to shout, but she was afraid of the pickpocket's retaliation. She was so nervous that her heart was beating fast.

Seeing that the pickpocket was about to succeed, she stood up with an idea and said, "Aunt, aunt, I'm sorry, I just saw it was you." She walked

over pretending to be intimate, pulled the woman over, and lifted the woman's bag with her other hand. .

The pickpocket immediately stopped and glared at Nan Jingyi fiercely.

The woman looked at Nan Jingyi in astonishment, wondering who this girl was.

"Aunt, we haven't seen you for a year and you don't recognize me anymore? I'm Jingyi!" She squeezed the woman's hand quietly.

The woman understood, "Jingyi has grown into a big girl, I almost didn't recognize her."

Just as he arrived at the halfway stop, the pickpocket got out of the car angrily. Before leaving, he turned back to Nan Jingyi and said harshly, "We'll see. ! Don’t let me meet you again!”

Another accomplice got out of the car at the same time.

As the car started to move, Nan Jingyi patted her chest to calm down her shock before telling the woman the truth.

The woman hurriedly looked down at the opened bag, checked it over quickly, felt relieved and moved.

"Little girl, thank you so much. In the bag is the 20,000 yuan I took out, which is life-saving money for my mother-in-law. Fortunately, I met you! Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous." The woman was extremely excited and held Nan Jingyi's hand tightly. .

"My surname is Zhang, little girl. If I have the opportunity in the future, I must thank you properly."

"Aunt Zhang, you're welcome, it's what I should do. My surname is Nan, and I work at the Central Hospital. See you again if you have the chance!" she said to Zhang Auntie smiled and waved goodbye and got out of the car.

Aunt Zhang smiled slightly and waved. Thinking about what Nan Jingyi said, Central Hospital... she was thoughtful.

A wisp of sunset slanted on the horizon, reflecting the earth slantingly. The cicadas on the trees sang songs tirelessly. The high temperature was 38 degrees. The summer in the south is really hot.

Nan Jingyi arrived home and as soon as she walked in, she heard her stepfather Nan Jiangcheng and her mother arguing.

"You are very busy every day, and you can't find anyone every morning!" The stepfather scolded Zheng Juan with a straight face.

Zheng Juan was very angry, "Didn't I take care of this house? Didn't I do the housework? I didn't cook any of the three meals a day? You can't even run a washing machine, why should you blame me!"

"I give it to you every day. I won't go out until breakfast is ready," Zheng Juan became more and more angry as she talked. "No matter how busy I am every day, I rush back to make lunch and do housework at home in the afternoon and evening. I make my own money to support myself, and it doesn't cost you a penny. What qualifications do you have to criticize me!"

It has been nearly ten years since we were married, and the husband is selfish and Incompetent, she has sacrificed a lot for this family. She felt aggrieved to be scolded for working hard and not complaining.

When Nanjiang City heard that Nan Jingyi was back, he said nothing.

Ever since he married the capable Zheng Juan, he has been working as a hands-off shopkeeper at home for the past few years. In life, Zheng Juan has raised him to be a useless person who knows nothing.

Because Zheng Juan went out early in the past few days and there was no one to clean up after breakfast. He washed the dishes twice and began to feel unhappy.

Zheng Juan usually packs all his clothes, but this morning he was angry with Zheng Juan because he couldn't find his clothes.

Zheng Juan has always been good-tempered, but she couldn't bear the unreasonable accusations from her husband despite working hard to make money, so the two quarreled.

On weekdays, Zheng Juan is responsible for the monthly water and electricity bills at home, and pays 200 yuan for her and her daughter’s food expenses every month.

Now in the early 1990s, my daughter's monthly salary is only 300 yuan.

The selfish and stingy Nanjiang City was still not satisfied and kept picking and choosing things all day long to deliberately find trouble.

When her daughter came back, Zheng Juan went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Nan Jingyi washed her hands and looked at her tired mother. Nan Jingyi put on an apron and took the kitchen knife from her mother's hand. "Mom, I bought vegetables. Let me make dinner. You can rest."

She turned around and entered the space with the vegetable basket, picked some eggplants, peppers, winter melons and tomatoes, and agreed with Xiaopi that she would go into the space to play with him later.

She washed and cooked rice, washed vegetables, and cut vegetables. Soon, a plate of pepper and eggplant, a plate of braised winter melon, a bowl of tomato and egg soup, and a few simple home-cooked dishes were ready.

During the meal, the three of them remained silent and took a few mouthfuls of rice in silence. Nan Jingyi put down her bowl and helped her mother with the housework.

She felt sorry for her mother. She had thought about it more than once before and wanted to leave this home as soon as possible when she grew up.

Her stepfather's indifference, selfishness, and awkward family relationships were the root causes of her wrong marriage in her previous life.

Because she couldn't feel the warmth of family and had no father's love since she was a child, she couldn't tell the difference between a scumbag and eventually got married hastily.
