Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 277
After He Jinxuan left, Xinyan closed the main door and went back inside to the space.
She also felt that the weather was unusual; it had been raining for three and a half days, with no sign of stopping. She thought about going to the Yuquan River tomorrow to see where the water level was.
Thinking of He Jinxuan, she couldn’t help but cover her face, feeling her cheeks burning. Was this an old cow eating young grass?
Thinking of He Jinxuan’s thoughtfulness, a sweet feeling arose in her heart, but she also knew that she couldn’t just focus on the present.
She harvested what needed to be harvested and planted a new batch.
The chickens, ducks, and geese that were previously brought in had started laying eggs, and there were quite a few in storage, which made her happy.
She thought that once the rain stopped, she’d have to handle a batch.
Not planning to study anymore today, she tidied up the space, washed up, and went to bed early because it was raining outside, so she stayed in the space.
On the other side, He Jinxuan was both excited that Xinyan agreed to date and a bit worried, so after settling the two kids, he put on a raincoat and took a flashlight to head to the factory again.
When he reached the security department, the night shift personnel were preparing to patrol. Zhang Chengxiang saw him come in: "Chief, why are you here?"
He Jinxuan looked at them: "The rain has been falling for days now, so be very careful tonight, especially near the warehouse. Also, the lower-lying transport team area needs attention. Check the water level at the Yuquan River every hour."
Everyone knew the chief wasn’t exaggerating because the rain had indeed been heavy these last few days, and they had to be cautious.
He Jinxuan glanced at the sky outside: "Let’s go, I’ll join your patrol and then head back."

Li Yuzhi caused a ruckus in the Capital for a few days, but Ji Linfeng couldn’t stand her unreasonable behavior and called the police. After a scare, Li Yuzhi realized she couldn’t gain anything from Ji Linfeng, and without the old man to help, she had to go back, disappointed.
Qiu Shaocheng made so many calculations, but in the end, wound up in prison. His children from the first marriage completely severed ties, and he even caused his granddaughter to lose a kidney. He could no longer depend on them.
As for Qiu Chunli, it’s no longer about relying on him; she probably wants to kill him on sight for revenge, and that feud is unsolvable.
Li Yuzhi also resented him over her younger son’s situation. As the saying goes, doing too many wrongs brings self-destruction, and he was reaping what he sowed, deservedly so.
There’s a saying, what’s due doesn’t come immediately; it’s just that the time hasn’t arrived yet.
Ji Linfeng could ignore Li Yuzhi, but he couldn’t afford to disregard Doctor Zhang’s family. After several rounds of bargaining, he had to compensate the Zhang family 1,800 yuan. This was the Zhang family’s bottom line, and they threatened to make a scene at his home and workplace if he refused.
Helplessly, he agreed but didn’t have the full amount at hand. He managed to gather 300 yuan, wrote an IOU for the remaining 1,500, and agreed to pay it off at 300 yuan a year within five years.
Although it wasn’t his fault, given the situation, Doctor Zhang’s brother-in-law was almost at odds with Ji Linfeng.
After two rejections, Ji Xiaowen surprisingly pulled through.
Now, with Qiu Chunli imprisoned and the Han Family cutting ties with them, their domestic situation was nothing like before. Ji Linfeng had no choice but to bring Ji Xiaowen home for recovery.
Upon discharge, the doctor advised that though a kidney transplant was successful, rejections could persist for a long time, requiring anti-rejection medication and careful care. In other words, he was still essentially a sickly person.
Ji Xiaowen tried to persuade his brother Ji Xiaolei to seek sympathy from Han Jingchen, but Han Jingchen gave them no chance. His daughter was still missing, and the idea of forgiveness was unthinkable.
Later, no matter how Ji Xiaowen urged, Ji Xiaolei never went again. He understood that not only his second uncle but even his first uncle and aunt would no longer have anything to do with them.
He ran into his aunt on the street one day, and she made it perfectly clear to him. He understood that his mother committed unforgivable acts, leading to the current state, and though he knew this, he couldn’t bring himself to hate his own mother.
