Chapter 29 First Transaction



I rode all the way home. It was already too hot in Nanqiao. I put my bike in the yard, locked the door, and quickly entered the space.

I took a shower and came out of the house.

With long hair draped behind her, the breeze was so pleasant. Nanqiao was sitting in the yard, reading a book while waiting for her hair to dry.

Hearing the noise outside the courtyard, Nanqiao turned his eyes away from his high school textbook and looked out the door. "You guys are back."

Nanqiao stood up and ran towards the gate.

"Qiaoqiao, is this the bicycle you bought? It looks so nice. I called my family this afternoon and asked them to send the ticket to me in the next few days. We can go buy the bicycle next time we have a break."

"Have you decided what kind of one to buy? I don't see many of these for ladies, most are the kind with a crossbar in the front."

Shen Nian frowned when she heard Nanqiao's words, "I still like your type, the one with the crossbar is a bit big, I'm afraid I can't support it"

"If you need anything, I can ask my friend. He might have this kind of thing." Sheng Yanchuan put the backpack at the door of Nanqiao's house, then stood up and talked to the two of them.

Shen Nian was very happy with what Sheng Yanchuan said, but Nanqiao looked at him seriously with some other meaning in his eyes.

"Brother Sheng, you still have this way, then remember to ask for me. If I don't need the ticket, I'll get it in the next few days. If I do need the ticket, I'll wait a few days before buying it. In short, I definitely want it, so you must ask for me!"

Sheng Yanchuan nodded upon hearing this.

But when I saw Nanqiao's gaze, I felt guilty for some reason.

It would have been fine if I didn't know the other person's little secret. Now I know it very well. Seeing Sheng Yanchuan's serious expression, he looked away when he saw her.

Nanqiao teased, "I didn't expect that Comrade Sheng has such a wide network of contacts. It seems that this job at the transportation factory is really good. However, I have been here for a while, and I haven't seen him go there yet."

Sheng Yanchuan heard this and said in a somewhat unnatural tone, "Well, traveling around the country, it's inevitable to meet some people from all walks of life."

"Oh? Is that so?" Nanqiao said exaggeratedly

"Yeah yeah"

Sheng Yanchuan didn't know why. He had been in the black market for four or five years, but he didn't know what happened today. He felt like his cards were exposed.

"Then you guys clean up first, I'll be back."

"Brother Sheng, take care"

"good"

Chen Nian and Nanqiao both responded at the same time

Shen Nian didn't know what the two were talking about. She just asked Sheng Yanchuan to help her ask about the bicycle, and then started to pack her backpack.

"Qiaoqiao, let's take a look and see what we should take to the educated youth camp. I guess they should have all gone by now, so let's go there quickly."

"There are two of us, so a pound of meat is enough." The educated youth invited them to have a meal, and the old educated youth spread out the food.

But the invited people should also know their place. It would be embarrassing to go empty-handed. But a pound of meat is already generous, so there is no need to bring other things.

If it were up to Nanqiao, she would have thought that this pound of meat was too much, but there were too many educated youths, so after the meal, each person could only eat a few bites of the pound of meat.

"Okay, then one pound of meat."

At this time, Nanqiao also put all the things in his backpack back into the kitchen.

During this period, Nanqiao and Shen Nian basically ate the same food, such as rice, flour, meat, etc., without any distinction between you and me.

As for the money for buying things, we basically share one for you and one for me. Although we didn't break it down to the last cent, it was pretty much the same.

Shen Nian put the pound of meat in a paper bag and came out of the kitchen

"Qiaoqiao, let's go"

Nanqiao nodded and took Shen Nian's hand and strolled out

"Do you think Qin Fang will come today?" Nan Qiao suddenly thought of this strange thing. She was reluctant to give her meat.

"I guess she will blame me, but Sister Jiang and the others at the educated youth center are not easy to deal with. They will not let her do what she wants. I noticed that Dong Jiayan and Wang Yuman didn't pay much attention to her during work these few days. Recently, Qin Fang has been working together with that educated youth Wang."

"It's not surprising. Everyone here just wants to live a peaceful life and find a chance to go back to the city. But she has repeatedly caused trouble for the village chief and the team leader. I'm afraid that even if she performs well in the future, she won't be able to attend the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University."

Nanqiao shook his head in extreme disapproval of Qin Fang's behavior.

"I just don't know why Dong Jiayan and Wang Yuman suddenly reject her so much..." Nanqiao couldn't understand this. They had a very good relationship in Shanghai before.

It was a collaboration to trick her, but now we're done with it.

"What else could it be? It's just Sumu."

"Sumu? What happened to him?" Nanqiao was aroused by Chen Nian's words. Nanqiao did not tell Chen Nian about what happened that afternoon, so Chen Nian only had a vague understanding of Sumu's situation.

"It seems that Su Mu got angry at Dong Jiayan for no apparent reason, and Qin Fang couldn't stand it and stepped in, offending both Dong Jiayan and Su Mu..."

Nanqiao didn't know what to say to Qin Fang.

"Stop mentioning her. I feel like people will become stupid if you mention her name too much..."

The courtyards for male and female educated youth are separate. The courtyard for female educated youth is much bigger in comparison. For convenience, we will stay in the courtyard for female educated youth today.

At this time, groups of three or four were sitting in the yard playing cards and having fun.

Zhao Keke, who was at the gate of the courtyard, saw the person coming and jumped up to greet him.

"Hello, you must be Chen Nian and Nan Qiao, nice to meet you. My name is Zhao Keke, you can just call me Keke or Xiaoke."
