Chapter 2 (Catching Bugs)
Grabbing a red envelope is all about grabbing it; any hesitation is disrespectful. Even knowing it was an illusion, Zhou Jiani reached out and poked it. Besides, it was written: Boss, poke me!
Zhou Jiani was amused by her own subconscious reaction to poking it, but before she could laugh out loud, she saw the "illusion" slowly flipping over, and the words "5.7" appeared.
"Pfft, illusions even have after-sales service!"
But normally this is considered a big bag, it would be so beautiful if it were real.
Imagining that kind of joy, Zhou Jiani's lips curled up slightly, and the next second, her expression was horrified - the red envelope with 5.7 rolled up turned into a red light and drilled into the palm of her left hand.
Zhou Jiani calmed down her heart which was about to jump out of her chest, squinted her eyes and quickly looked around. Everyone was burying their heads to avoid the flying dust, and no one noticed her actions.
She also lowered her head and spread out her hands to check, but there was nothing.
Zhou Jiani rubbed it twice, with a strange expression on her face, and watched a WeChat group interface appear on her hand. It was the familiar 'Daily Welfare Group Buying Group'.
Look at the group again:
[Fresh ribs are in stock today. Those who have ordered our fresh ribs know that they are definitely the best on the Internet. You can buy them with confidence. Specifications: 4 kilograms per box, fresh group discount price 48 yuan/box, enter the link to buy, link...
1. The group leader successfully ordered 2 boxes
2. Order 1 box of Beibingchun successfully
3. Xiaoyu’s mother successfully ordered 1 box
4……】
A string of messages flashed across the screen, the number ended at 26, and there was an extra sentence at the end: Fresh pork ribs sold out.
The group buying method is different from the previous life. In the past, money was transferred privately to the group leader, but now there is an additional link function, and the purchase will be automatically connected after it is successful.
And it was not the leader's portrait that she was familiar with.
This scene felt mysterious and illusory, making Zhou Jiani's understanding of whether she was reborn a little uncertain. She simply pinched her thigh and felt at ease.
——Confirmed to be reborn, and also brought back to the 1970s with a magical "mobile phone".
Just as I was calming down my excitement, my palm suddenly vibrated and a red envelope popped up in the group with a note: Group buying of free-range black-clawed chickens!
Zhou Jiani cannot see the red envelopes. Once she sees them, her muscle memory is automatically triggered and 0.12 is deposited into her account in seconds.
I glanced at the avatar and saw that the team leader had changed again.
A few pictures of black-clawed chickens were posted in the group first, followed by the group purchase price, introduction and link.
Zhou Jiani didn't read the content. She was just thinking about the shock she just felt, speechless!
At this time, the wind stopped and several educated youth began to brush off the dirt that had fallen on their luggage.
Zhou Jiani clenched her hands, and the interface disappeared. She also followed her memory to pack her luggage: bedding and pillows wrapped in white and blue checkered sheets, two army green handbags, an empty thermos, a washbasin, and this month's food rations received from the commune.
The other people's ceremonial equipment was not much different.
The car went a little further, and Uncle Zhang said, "Kids, there's a slope ahead. Everyone, get off and walk up it before getting back on the car."
Liu Ailing uttered an "ah" and muttered softly, "Do we have to walk up that slope?"
There was no complaint in these words, as if they were just to confirm what Uncle Zhang had said.
But in her previous life, Zhou Jiani was unhappy when she heard this and protested to Uncle Zhang: "Why should we walk up the hill? Can't the cows pull it?"
It's not that they can't pull it. The farmers felt sorry for the cows. When Uncle Zhang heard this, he got anxious and yelled at them, "How can so many people pull it? Get off! Get off!"
Sun Ping and the others were innocently implicated and scolded, and seeing Uncle Zhang's gloomy face, they couldn't help but glare at her.
Zhao Weiguo and Peng Guangrong, two of the male educated youth, had been quite attentive to her along the way. Seeing her being scolded, they immediately became furious and shouted at her: "Can't you just talk it out nicely? What are you yelling about? We're here to help you build a new countryside, not to see your face..."
Liu Ailing quickly apologized for her and spoke well of Uncle Zhang.
On the side of the male educated youth, Bai Haoyang, who came from the capital, stepped forward and pushed Zhao Weiguo and Peng Guangrong back.
Now thinking back to how stupid she was at that time, Zhou Jiani couldn't help but want to dig her toes into the ground.
Now she certainly wouldn't be impulsive anymore, and followed Liu Ailing's words and said with a smile: "It's good to walk up the hill, just in time for the cows to rest."
Uncle Zhang turned his head and looked at her in surprise, then gave her a friendly smile.
Zhou Jiani jumped out first without waiting for the car to stop, which caused Uncle Zhang to say with some concern: "Slow down, slow down, don't bump into anything."
Zhou Jiani laughed heartily and said, "It's okay, Uncle Zhang, you're driving very steadily!"
I thought it wasn't that difficult to win her favor. Why was she so awkward and stupid in her previous life?
Uncle Zhang smiled innocently, and actually felt that this little girl was quite likable when she wasn't making any noise.
Liu Ailing was stunned for a moment, glanced at Zhou Jiani, but didn't say anything else.
The car behind also stopped, and the male educated youth got off one by one.
Bai Haoyang nudged his companion in a white shirt next to him with his arm and whispered, "Hey, that little bastard didn't make a fuss."
Qiu Zeming glared at him and said nothing.
Wang Qianjin squeezed over and walked alongside them, saying, "What are you two whispering about?"
Bai Haoyang winked at him, raised his chin towards the front, and said, "Where's that bastard? She didn't make any noise."
Wang Qianjin immediately knew who it was and burst out laughing.
When they gathered at the commune before, that female comrade didn't know who had stepped on her tail, and she kept on making trouble, causing such a great commotion that they had a great time watching it, which was even more exciting than watching a shadow puppet show.
Bai Haoyang immediately gave the delicate young lady the nickname "Dia Jing"!
"Let's go, stop meddling in other people's business." Qiu Zeming put his hands in his pockets and took the lead, and the two brothers followed immediately.
The three of them came from the capital and were not very familiar with the others, so they would subconsciously stick together.
The female educated youth also had their own small groups.
Zhou Jiani and Liu Ailing both worked at the Provincial Textile Factory No. 2, while Meng Hongxing worked at the Provincial Textile Factory No. 1. He could barely be considered a member of the same family as them. He got off the ox cart and came over to talk to Liu Ailing.
Among the female educated youth, Sun Ping and Zhou Hongbing both worked in the provincial steel industry, so they naturally got together.
Meng Jiandi was an employee disciple of the Provincial Garment Factory. She was alone here. There was a male educated youth named Peng Guangrong who knew her, but she couldn't go back and walk with the male educated youth. So she went to find Yu Wanxia, who was also alone, and joined her.
Yu Wanxia also came from the capital, Bai Haoyang's cousin. She had originally slowed down her pace and was planning to wait for Bai Haoyang and the others to come up and walk together, but when she saw Meng Jiandi coming over, she greeted her with a smile.
Liu Ailing ignored Zhou Jiani, but turned her head to chat happily with Meng Hongxing, as if she had forgotten that Zhou Jiani was next to her.
In the past, Zhou Jiani would have been angry, but at this moment, she was thinking about her new "mobile phone" and was happy to be quiet.
As she walked, she kept a distance from them. Just then, her palm vibrated. Zhou Jiani, with a twitching mouth, entered the group, opened a red envelope, and grabbed 19 cents.
This time it was information about a group purchase of navel oranges, and she noticed that the group leader had changed again.
"Why are there so many group leaders?"
Moreover, the avatar cannot be clicked, so you cannot view information or add friends.
Zhou Jiani climbed the hill slowly while rubbing her palms with her head down.
In the eyes of others, this back view looks a bit depressed, as if unhappy.
Liu Ailing glanced at him with a slightly cold look and then retracted her gaze. She raised her voice and chatted with Meng Hongxing, laughing.
She felt that Zhou Jiani's words just now made her feel a little embarrassed, so she wanted to be cold to her.
Zhou Jiani's mind was not on them, she lowered her head to study the "mobile phone" interface.
The default page of 'Mobile Phone' is the group buying group chat box, but there is a return arrow in the upper left corner. Clicking it will return to the main interface of WeChat, but all the previous contacts will be gone. The first one in the list is the group buying group, followed by 'My Services' and 'Click me to start a group'!
Clicking on 'My Services', Zhou Jiani's eyes lit up as she saw functions such as 'My Change', 'Piggy Bank', 'Bills' and 'Bank Cards'.
My change: 1858.43 (This amount can be transferred to purchases or bank cards, but cannot be transferred out or withdrawn)
[Piggy Bank: 0 (This amount supports shopping, cash deposits and withdrawals, and cannot be linked to 'My Change' and 'Bank Card')]
[Bill: Change Income - Red Envelope - from the system, +5.70; Change Income - Red Envelope - from Mr. Mu, +0.12; Change Income - Red Envelope - from Group Leader Xiaofeng, +0.19.]
Zhou Jiani's eyes fixed on the amount of change, her heart pounding, her breathing stagnating for a few seconds. "Could this be the money I had in WeChat before?"
