Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 302
Yu Xinyan didn’t care why she was being glared at; she got off the bus as soon as it reached the station, without even giving her a glance.
However, she did politely nod to the sister she had seen earlier.
She found a safe spot to change her outfit and quickly located Brother Gu Zi.
Brother Gu Zi was quite excited upon seeing her: "You finally showed up; what was going on with you disappearing?"
Yu Xinyan laughed: "I wasn’t disappearing; it’s pointless to come when I don’t have anything on hand."
Brother Gu Zi understood that good stuff isn’t always available: "Alright, fair enough. Let’s go, let’s talk in the yard."
Having done two transactions before, they reached a consensus quickly. However, this time the delivery location was changed to a collapsed deserted yard, which was somewhat secluded. It looked like it used to be a backyard of a wealthy family’s house, but for some reason, the brick house had completely collapsed. Few people came here.
Brother Gu Zi knew about this place and the fact that few people visited, so he agreed.
Although the grain was not ready for harvest, she had agreed with Brother Gu Zi to come back in about ten days. She decided to sell off some of the chicken and duck eggs, as well as some fish from the stream.
She hadn’t put the items out for long before Brother Gu Zi arrived with his men. They quickly weighed and settled the payment, and Yu Xinyan didn’t worry about when they would collect the items. She took the money and left; she earned six hundred bucks.
With the business done, Yu Xinyan made a stop at the junkyard, but aside from finding a huanghuali wooden pen holder, there wasn’t much else to discover. After all, it’s been seven or eight years; there aren’t that many good things being brought here anymore.
Seeing she still had time, she entered the black market again, but without greeting Brother Gu Zi’s people, she wandered around inside directly.
Believe it or not, she came across something she wanted. Someone was selling second-hand leather suitcases, about seventy percent new. Yu Xinyan liked it immediately. The space was great, but she’d need some kind of cover tool, like buying a tote bag later. Perfect.
Actually, some people came to inquire, but upon hearing it wouldn’t sell if less than fifteen, they all left.
Indeed, families that could afford leather suitcases probably wouldn’t come to the black market for second-hand ones, while those with average conditions felt these weren’t practical for long trips and might as well buy a big tote bag.
Yu Xinyan walked up: "Can I look inside?"
The vendor didn’t say a word and opened the suitcase directly.
Yu Xinyan took a look; it was quite new inside, indicating the original owner cherished it, so she bought it right away.
However, she didn’t take it directly but instead asked the seller for a sack, carefully placed it inside, and carried it out of the black market. She found a place to enter the space directly, changed back to her original clothes, tidied up before exiting the space.
Then she headed to the supply and marketing cooperative. Sister Liang was off today, so she went to the counter and bought two cans of malted milk essence, along with some fabric to make Granny Zhang a set of clothes.
She planned to measure Granny Zhang’s size before cutting the fabric upon returning, fearing that after all these years, she might not remember Granny Zhang’s size correctly and waste the fabric. Since she’d be staying a few days anyway, she had plenty of time.
She also bought some cookies and milk candies before leaving the supply and marketing cooperative.
The timing was just right; she didn’t have to wait long at the bus stop before the bus came.
As she was approaching the mechanical factory, she could see He Jinxuan waiting far off under the signpost, feeling amused yet a little sweet inside.
As soon as the bus stopped, Yu Xinyan got off, and He Jinxuan took her backpack: "Let me carry it."
Since he came to greet her, she naturally wouldn’t refuse.
What she didn’t know was, this move caused the rumor of Director He’s relationship with Yu Xinyan to spread.
He Jinxuan certainly knew who started the rumor, but this time he wasn’t angry. Instead, he was quite grateful to her. However, he worried Xinyan might misunderstand: "Yanyan, there’s something I need to tell you."
Yu Xinyan had already noticed him sneaking glances at her: "What is it?"
He Jinxuan scratched his head: "What I said when I walked you out at noon was overheard by Bai Cuilin, and she spread it out in the afternoon. Now a lot of people in the factory know about us being a couple."
