Chapter 73 Looking for Opportunities in Secret



It must have been specially prepared later to prevent accidents.

Xu Qinghe felt relieved when he saw that he didn't ask any more questions. He said softly, "The wound has been treated. Be careful when you sleep tonight and don't bump into it again."

As she packed up the iodine, she changed the subject and offered an idea: "I've been thinking about looking for a job outside the village lately. This would be much more meaningful than staying at home doing nothing all day."

After saying that, she stared at Yin Yunjie with full of expectation.

Upon hearing this, Yin Yunjie looked up at her, mistakenly thinking that she needed his help to solve her employment problem. For him, using his extensive network of contacts to help Xu Qinghe find a suitable position was just a piece of cake.

"What kind of job do you want? Although formal positions are hard to find, I might be able to help you find a temporary job."

His tone was full of confidence. After all, in this small place, his network of connections was quite impressive.

But Xu Qinghe shook his head slightly, a look of determination flashing in his eyes: "I haven't decided yet, let's take our time on this matter."

It’s not that she was unwilling to rely on Yin Yunjie’s help, but she understood that such resources were precious and rare, and should be used at the most critical moment.

As for work, she firmly believes that with her own efforts and wisdom, she will always find her own place.

Yin Yunjie smiled gently upon hearing this, mistakenly assuming Xu Qinghe was struggling with career choices. He stopped probing further, his words filled with care and concern. "Okay, while I'm away, you can go to Old Hou's neighbors for help. I'll talk to them beforehand; they're all warm-hearted and will surely be happy to help you."

Xu Qinghe knew clearly that Yin Yunjie had misunderstood her thoughts, but she did not explain much. She just nodded slightly, then turned off the lights in the room and prepared to go to bed.

In the night, her back looks particularly gentle.

Su Qifen finally got her wish and entered the Yin family, but the resentment towards Xu Qinghe in her heart did not dissipate in the slightest.

Although everything seemed calm on the surface, Sun Youfang's instigation was like an invisible thorn that pierced Su Qifen's heart deeply, casting a shadow on her view of Xu Qinghe.

Although Xu Qinghe has told Yin Yunjie that he will be careful and cautious, how can he not feel tired after being on guard like this day after day?

Besides, Sun Youfang, a calculating woman, would most likely target herself after dealing with Su Qifen.

Xu Qinghe knew this very well and was secretly alert. He had to be extremely vigilant to deal with any small moves behind Sun Youfang's back.

She began to conceive a plan, intending to let Su Qifen and Sun Youfang fight each other, so as to create space for herself to breathe and act.

However, she was not in a hurry to set up this chess game, and planned to wait until Yin Yunjie returned to the army before taking action quietly.

Yin Yunjie's keen insight forced her to be cautious and consider every step carefully to avoid unnecessary suspicion and explanation. Such caution was really laborious.

In the following days, Yin Yunjie devoted himself to the work of renovating his home, while Xu Qinghe carefully took care of the house, using a broom and mop to remove dust from every corner, cleaning repeatedly until the house looked brand new.

She also found some leftover tiles and cleverly planted vibrant green plants on them.

Her love for life is reflected in the careful arrangement of her living environment.

As everything gradually took shape, Yin Yunjie said with satisfaction, "The house is almost ready. We can move in after adding some furniture. When you have time, go to the city and take a look around. If you like anything, reserve it. I'll finish building the walls and then find a truck to transport it back."

He knew very well that Xu Qinghe enjoyed shopping, and since the family's financial power was now in Xu Qinghe's hands, buying household items was naturally a piece of cake.

Xu Qinghe offered his own perspective: "It doesn't necessarily have to be brand new. Adding lots of new furniture to a newly built house is bound to draw attention. Why not start with some second-hand furniture as a transitional piece, and then gradually upgrade as needed? This would be both economical and practical. What do you think?"

Yin Yunjie agreed with Xu Qinghe's proposal. After all, this was Xu Qinghe's future permanent residence, and her preferences were most important. "Then let's do as you say. You can ask where I can buy suitable second-hand furniture."

Xu Qinghe was secretly delighted when she heard Yin Yunjie's support.

In this era, buying satisfactory second-hand goods often requires introductions from friends or connections.

"Okay, don't worry. I'll go around the city tomorrow. If I can't find a suitable one, we can think of other ways."

Her tone was full of confidence and composure.

Yin Yunjie suddenly remembered the group that had surrounded Xu Qinghe before, especially the leader, Brother Lin, and couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Try to come back early in the evening. I'll wait for you at the village entrance around five o'clock."

His worry was beyond words, fearing that Xu Qinghe would encounter another accident.

Xu Qinghe sensed Yin Yunjie's concern and replied gently, "Okay, I was delayed last time due to some unexpected circumstances. I will pay attention to the time next time."

Regarding the mysterious background of Brother Lin's group in the Xu Jianguo incident, Xu Qinghe secretly thought that perhaps he could find an opportunity to take advantage of their relationship with Sun Youfang.

The next day, at dawn, the sky was a gentle pale blue. Xu Qinghe lightly stepped onto the old bicycle that had accompanied her for countless days and set foot on the road to the city.

Her target wasn't the bustling, bustling secondhand market.

In this strange city, people are indifferent to each other. Even if you get there, you may just search in vain among the complicated commodities. What's more, it is undoubtedly extremely difficult to find good products that are both cheap and practical.

Her destination is the giant garbage disposal station in the city center, a mysterious place that is repeatedly mentioned in the novel world.

It was there that the fates of the hero and heroine intertwined for the first time, like two parallel lines unexpectedly intersecting.

The heroine, an educated young woman from a neighboring village, was sent here under the heavy pressure of life. Although life was hard, she often came here to help pick up rubbish and use her meager income to supplement her family income.

In this seemingly hopeless place, she taught herself with the help of old books she found by chance, and eventually reversed her fate and entered university.

Xu Qinghe thought to himself, since this is the heroine's blessed land, perhaps he could also get some of the heroine's luck. Even if the possibility is very small, it is worth a try.

According to the plot of the novel, the hero and heroine meet after the cannon fodder female supporting role helps the demented hero regain his sanity. It is still early now, and the heroine should not have appeared here yet.
