Chapter 9 The Abandoned Capitalist Lady in the 1950s
After all, she still had to work here, so Ning Ning couldn't let things continue. It would be better to wrap it up quickly. If she wanted to take revenge, she could do it later without making it public.
Li Jingwei glared at Ning Ning fiercely. The malice in his eyes was like an entire ocean of malice, surging with waves, as if he wanted to swallow Ning Ning up.
However, he also knew that there was nothing he could do at the moment, and that continuing to talk would only be disadvantageous to him.
And he couldn't do anything when he was being pulled.
By using the strength of the people pulling him, he was pulled away.
Before leaving, he turned around and gave Ning Ning a vicious look.
Seeing the protagonists leave in disgrace, the crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed like clouds blown away by the wind.
Someone was muttering to himself as they walked along, "This is such a fuss! They can date together, but what about when they get married? Hehehe!"
That expression looks so obscene no matter how you look at it.
Someone else pulled him back and said, "Don't talk nonsense, but it seems there's new gossip in this unit!"
"This Accountant Xiao Ning is no ordinary person. He's so small, yet he can still kick a big man."
"That's what he deserves. If a random stranger comes up to you and asks you for sex, you'd have to call him a hooligan. Besides, he's having an affair with another lesbian."
The crowd had almost all left, and Yu Li, who was blocking the way behind, was finally revealed.
She hurried to Ning Ning and looked at her with concern, "Xiao Ning, are you okay?"
Ning Ning frowned and pouted, saying, "It's okay, I just feel a little disgusted. What a mess!"
Sister Huang came over and said, "I noticed something was wrong with that young man's eyes when he left. Xiao Ning, you have to be more careful!"
Ning Ning nodded, "I understand, Sister Huang, thank you!"
Chen Jianguo: "How about I take you home after get off work and then I leave?"
Ning Ning waved her hands quickly, "That won't do, Brother Chen! You still have to pick up the kids from kindergarten after work. You can't just let Zhuangzhuang wait for you in the kindergarten all by himself after all the other kids have left! Don't worry, I'll be fine. I'm blessed with a long life!"
The section chief said sternly, "Anyway, you should pay attention to your safety recently. If you notice something is wrong, run to a crowded place immediately. It's better to be safe than sorry!"
"Got it, Chief. Don't worry, I'll be careful and nothing will happen!"
In fact, she was not really afraid. Even if she could not win with force, she could still use hypnosis. She never forgot to practice for a single day.
As soon as Ning Ning got home from get off work, she quickly changed her clothes and went straight to the vegetable garden in the yard.
First, harvest all the ripe beans, cucumbers, etc. In the field where potatoes were planted before, all the potatoes were harvested after they matured, and now cabbage and radishes are planted.
Although the cabbage and radish are only half grown now, Ning Ning is thinking that she will let them grow as big as they can before the weather gets cold, at least they can be used as vegetables.
Her yard is so small, only the size of a palm, so she has to find ways to grow more things to store.
In order to store more fresh food, Ning Ning tidied up the space.
She first cleared the space in the courtyard, and then moved all the boxes of antiques into the courtyard and placed them in the aisle of the courtyard. They were arranged very neatly, and then she stacked beds and cabinets layer by layer on top, and she chose to stack them up at the same height.
If there is any unevenness, find a carpet to pad it.
Just by piling it up little by little, the entire courtyard was piled high and it was extremely stable.
It’s not accurate to call it an aisle. It’s a small courtyard of less than 30 square meters. However, this courtyard is so small that it can only be considered an aisle.
The main reason is that the space of this courtyard has never been able to be expanded. Even if Ning Ning has time to often visit antique shops and jewelry stores, the spiritual energy absorbed is very limited and is not enough to make the courtyard bigger.
A lot of curtains, tablecloths, old quilts, old clothes, etc. were exchanged on the way to Beijing, and most of the main room in the courtyard was empty.
The remaining quilts were all brand new and had never been used. Ning Ning planned to keep them for her own use in the future.
Ning Ning also moved all the pots, pans, and food in the pharmacy to the kitchen outside.
Since we have settled down here, we have to have all these things at home. It would be better to just bring them from the mansion in Haishi.
Those items that look very luxurious were simply not put outside and were directly stored in the apartment to avoid trouble.
Ning Ning placed all the boxes of medicinal materials collected from the Qi family treasury in the pharmacy.
I don’t know if the medicine cabinet in this room has some kind of time formation or something, but all the herbs inside are surprisingly intact.
Although there is no extra medicine cabinet to store medicinal herbs, it is definitely a good idea to put them in this room.
The space in the apartment became empty after this. Apart from the jars of salt and sugar, the rest was filled with grain, meat, eggs and milk harvested over the past few years.
The small blue brick courtyard I live in now has a cellar in the kitchen.
Ning Ning dried the vegetables she collected or pickled them, except for the fresh ones left in the apartment.
In winter, when everyone is eating radishes, cabbages and dried vegetables, it will be easy to be exposed if someone sees you eating fresh vegetables, so you still have to prepare everything.
A row of small jars containing more flavorful pickles.
With so much salt in hand, it must be put to use!
Ning Ning also learned how to make soybean paste from Grandma Liu next door. The family bought several large jars, which are now all stored in the cellar.
But right now, one jar of soybean paste is full, and she's planning to fill all of these jars with pickled vegetables next year! The small jars of pickled vegetables might not be enough during hard times.
Supplies are scarce now, and you need a ticket to buy anything! When I go to the countryside to exchange things, I dare not exchange too much each time, for fear of arousing suspicion. I can only carry it back bit by bit like a little hamster carrying food.
After exchanging some meat in the countryside, she immediately cooked and ate it, so even though she was always hoarding things, she actually didn't save much.
Half of her apartment was filled with food, which consisted of vegetables she had grown in her yard over the past few years, plus grain she had bought from time to time.
There was food on the black market, but Ning Ning only bought 30 kilograms every time, which was just enough to fit in her backpack, and then she would go back.
Then he took back the space under the cover of the backpack.
In the past few years, she was too small and it was difficult for her to change her makeup. In order not to arouse suspicion, she had to wait a few days after each visit before going again.
Things have only gotten better in the past two years, and I can now change my identities and buy food on the black market.
There is still one year left next year, and it is not easy to save all these money under the planned economy in China. We can only think of other ways!
In recent years, Ning Ning has made a major discovery!
She discovered that time in her apartment was not static at all.
Basically, ten days outside is just one minute in space! Although time is moving, at this snail's pace, what's the difference between it and standing still?
A whole year passed outside, but only half an hour passed in this apartment!
If you put a dish in it now, when Ning Ning turns into an old lady and dies of old age, the dish will not spoil, at most it will just get cold!
So she has been using this apartment as a fresh-keeping warehouse.
Whenever I want to improve my life and cook something delicious, I always make it in the apartment.
You can take a shower, go to the toilet, etc. in there.
After harvesting the vegetables, I put them neatly into a large bamboo basket and put them into the apartment, thinking I would tidy them up when I have time later.
Then he went to the corner and fed the chickens.
After returning to the house, I first pulled the curtains tightly, then went into the apartment to wash my hands. After washing, I came out of the apartment and sat down on the sofa to prepare for dinner.
The house has now been tidied up by Ning Ning.
There is no bed in this house, but it uses a brick bed, but Ning Ning just likes this brick bed.
There is no heating here. If it weren’t for this earthen kang, people would be frozen into popsicles in the winter!
The curtains and bedding used at home were all brought from the Haishi mansion. The curtains were neither new nor old, and the size was not suitable, so Ning Ning modified them herself.
The furniture I chose was all plain and without patterns. I put together a set of furniture, including a sofa, a coffee table, and even a tablecloth on the coffee table.
However, Ning Ning did not take the carpet out. She was afraid that she would not be able to cut it to the right size, so she simply gave up the trouble.
There was also a radio.
A phonograph was also put away in the Haishi mansion, but Ning Ning did not take it out. She thought that if there were guests at home and she didn't have time to put it away, wouldn't that cause trouble!
There is nothing special in the room now except the sofa set.
If there really comes a day when we need to put away the sofa temporarily, there will still be time.
The next day, as she arrived at the office door, Ning Ning suddenly felt a chill down her spine, as if a pair of sneaky eyes were staring at her in the dark.
