Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 583

The next day, when Xinyan woke up, there was already some activity in the kitchen.

She had mentioned yesterday that she needed to return to the big hotel before eight, so she planned to leave early and wouldn’t take the bus. Instead, she’d ride her own bike, which meant leaving fifteen minutes earlier.

She packed a few sets of clothes into the space and stuffed a few more into her bag for show before going out to wash up.

Granny Zhang saw her come out: "Yanyan, breakfast is almost ready."

Xinyan entered the kitchen and hugged Granny Zhang, saying, "It’s great to have Granny Zhang around."

Hearing this, Granny Zhang felt a sweet warmth in her heart: "Hurry up and wash up, breakfast is ready soon."

After she tidied up, Granny Zhang’s breakfast was already laid on the table.

The salted duck eggs pickled earlier were now ready to eat. Granny Zhang had made yellow millet jujube cake, sliced it, and fried a few pieces in the pan. She also got some soy milk from the alley in the morning and made a cold salad with radish strips.

Xinyan ate with satisfaction.

As she finished getting ready to leave, Grandma Tong from next door happened to come over: "Oh, Xinyan, I heard you’re working as a translator now, that’s quite impressive."

Xinyan smiled slightly: "It’s just a part-time job, not as impressive as you say."

Grandma Tong laughed and waved her hand: "Oh, don’t be modest, you’re the only one from our alley, do well and make us proud. Don’t let those foreigners take advantage of us."

Hearing this, Xinyan gave Grandma Tong a big thumbs-up: "Okay."

Pushing her bike out the door, she said, "Granny, I’m leaving."

Both elderly ladies spoke at the same time: "Be careful."

Standing at the gate, they watched Xinyan disappear at the end of the alley before withdrawing their gaze.

On the other side, Li Yutong was also capable. Although the Li family fell, she somehow managed to find a job as a nurse at a children’s hospital.

She’s been working there for over half a month now, and when a person reaches their last resort, they’ll endure any hardship.

Initially, she frequently got into conflicts with patients. After several incidents, the head nurse warned her: "Li Yutong, if you continue to have conflicts with patients and their families, you won’t need to stay here any longer, look for another job."

Li Yutong thought this couldn’t be; ever since that day, her temper had calmed a lot. Now that she’s lost the identity she once prided herself on, losing this job would make life problematic.

After leaving home, she kept thinking about how to arrange Qiao Shanmei.

She knew she couldn’t harm Han Xinyan and Jiang Peiqin at the moment, but if she kept Qiao Shanmei as a helper, she’d eventually find an opportunity.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been kind enough to take her in.

Clearly, it was her own fault, yet she insisted on blaming others, which was really speechless.

This morning, she overslept again. When she arrived at the hospital, the head nurse looked at her with some displeasure and said: "Li Yutong, can’t you have some sense of time? What time is it?"

Li Yutong quickly made up an excuse: "Head nurse, I’m really sorry, I ran into some trouble on the way here, so I was late. I’m truly sorry, I’ll go prepare the medication right away."

Before going to college, Li Yutong worked as a nurse at a company hospital. Although her injection skills were poor, she could always try a second or third time if she failed on the first.

But she was somehow lucky, as the children’s hospital had been recruiting nurses recently, and she performed exceptionally well in the exam. With her uncle pulling some strings, she secured a job.
