Chapter 17: Pie from the Sky (1/3)



The old lady ran home quickly. No one was at home at the moment. She returned to the bedroom and dragged out a black jar from under the bed.

Remove the debris on top and reveal a large lump of something wrapped in a handkerchief at the bottom.

I carefully counted out 14 of them, and just as I was about to put the money away, I sighed and counted out another 14.

He muttered, "The eldest daughter-in-law didn't show

I bought this for my younger daughter-in-law, but I left my older daughter-in-law behind? There will be a big quarrel at home.

In the past few years, the eldest daughter-in-law has made a lot of money from the cloth she brought back.

Rather than buying it later when there is a huge quarrel, it is better for me to buy her one now, and it will be a good thing.

Alas! Children are all debts, I owe you all.”

I put the money away carefully and took out an old biscuit box from the closet.

Their family had saved up a lot of tickets to marry off their youngest son, but because of the watch incident, the wedding was delayed for a while and some of the tickets were about to expire.

I picked out the tickets that were going to expire this month, took out two larger pieces of cloth to cover up the defective ones, and then hurried out.

Qin Shuwan was waiting in the alley. It was her first time doing such a sneaky thing, so she was a little nervous.

Just when she was about to stop waiting, the old lady came over hurriedly.

"Auntie, you're finally here. I thought you were lying to me. I was about to leave."

The old lady panted and said depressedly, "How can that be? Isn't it because I am old and my legs are slow?

My dear, didn't you just say you had two watches? Can you give them both to me?

I brought money, quite a few tickets, and two large pieces of cloth. Take a look, I definitely won't let you get away with anything. I saved this cloth specially. This army green is really popular right now. The edges are a little unevenly dyed, but that can be avoided when making clothes. It won't affect anything at all!"

Qin Shuwan hesitated for a moment, then looked at the colorful bills in the old lady's hand and nodded, "Okay!"

After the money was paid and the goods were delivered, Qin Shuwan came to the 1970s and made her first deal.

When the two were about to separate, the old lady pulled Qin Shuwan and whispered, "If you need cloth, come to me. My last name is Ding. If I'm not chatting under the tree, you can ask anyone and say you're looking for Aunt Ding. Then you'll know they're looking for me."

Qin Shuwan had to sigh that this lady was very brave and dared to solicit business openly.

Isn't she afraid that she will report him?

What Qin Shuwan didn't know was that in Mrs. Ding's eyes, she was just a silly, rich, and easy-to-fool young lady. Money from people like this was the easiest to make.

“Okay, I understand.”

After leaving the alley, Qin Shuwan breathed a sigh of relief and left with brisk steps.

But as I walked, I looked at the wall in front of me and thought, "Damn, why am I in a dead end?"

Just as I turned around and walked back a few steps, a huge guy fell from the sky and knocked me to the ground.

Qin Shuwan: ...

Just as I was about to start cursing, I heard chaotic footsteps from the other side of the wall, and many people shouted, "Don't run, stop!"

Qin Shuwan struggled to get rid of the things on her body, climbed up and looked around, muttering softly, "Fuck, who the hell is so wicked? Didn't your mother teach you that throwing objects from high places can be fatal?"

Even if she was angry, Qin Shuwan did not dare to stay any longer. She stood up and took two steps. She was really unwilling to
