Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine-Chapter 262 Small Episode

Su Yuanyuan really had no way; she simply couldn’t get in, so she had to try using the name of that leader. Hopefully, it would work? 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

If it really didn’t work, she’d have to hand this over to that person from earlier.

Actually, on the train, she didn’t sense that the man was a bad person, nor did she feel there was a problem with the woman.

But she knew that once she handed this thing over, it would be out of her hands.

She waited outside for about ten minutes, and that person ran out.

"Comrade, let me see your letter of introduction again."

Su Yuanyuan handed it over once more, and the person gave it a serious look.

"Please follow me in."

Su Yuanyuan: Thank heavens, the leader’s name worked.

She followed behind with eyes straight ahead, walking for about a quarter of an hour, and entered an office.

Su Yuanyuan saw a relatively young leader; his clothes were different from the others. He must be the leader.

The guide said something and then left.

Now, only the two of them were left in the office.

"Leader, I lied earlier. Leader Zeng Zhenqing didn’t ask me to bring any message."

The leader still stared directly at Su Yuanyuan, which really put pressure on her.

"Leader, on the train, I encountered two strange people. The man was guarding the woman, and in the middle of the night, the woman threw it to me and asked me to deliver it to the troops."

Su Yuanyuan sensibly handed over the little stone.

Shao Hongming picked up the stone from the table and examined it.

Although he appeared calm, inside he was turbulent.

"Did those two people have any peculiarities?"

"I don’t know, I stayed in the same carriage with them for a week, and the man only spoke once. Other than that, I didn’t hear them speak at all."

"Alright, got it."

"Leader, if there’s nothing else, I’ll leave. It’s already the 29th of the twelfth month; this year, I’ll be spending New Year on the train."

Shao Hongming nodded, and Su Yuanyuan immediately turned to leave.

But she quickly turned back and pulled out five hundred yuan from her bag, "Leader, I meant it when I said I wanted to donate."

Shao Hongming shook his head, "I can’t accept it."

With that, Su Yuanyuan packed away the money, smiled, and left. No need to press it; wouldn’t want to get anyone in trouble, right?

After leaving there, Su Yuanyuan hurried to the train station, heading home, eager to get back; it had been a thrilling journey this year.

After Su Yuanyuan left, Shao Hongming dialed Zeng Zhenqing’s number.

"Has that little girl left?"

"Hmm, the element is in my hands, I’ll deliver it tomorrow."

"Alright, I’ve heard that it’s not good for people, so you better put it in a box or something."

"Got it."

"By the way, you didn’t take that girl’s money, did you?"

"No."

Zeng Zhenqing laughed, that girl was probably relieved she didn’t have to hand over money.

Two hours later, Su Yuanyuan boarded the train home; since it was a short trip, there were no sleepers.

She could only take a hard seat. Thinking back, she was in the same situation last year.

On the thirtieth night, they had vermicelli stewed meat served. Su Yuanyuan bought a portion in the spirit of the occasion. It tasted pretty good.

Along the way, she’d been eating in the dining car and hadn’t had any milk, just like an ordinary person.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, she arrived in the city.

After getting off, she didn’t stop, walking directly home. She rode a bike at night; anyway, she got to the farm around one in the morning.

After getting home, it felt even colder inside than outside. With no choice, the first thing to do was light a fire. She sat by the stove to eat, at least it was warmer that way. After eating, it was the usual task of cleaning the home’s dust that had gathered over the months away.

Not until after six did the room finally warm up.

Only then did she crawl into bed. When she woke again, it was already two in the afternoon. Now she felt much more comfortable.

She still brought out quite a bit of dried fruit, along with a bag of rice and twenty pounds of cooking oil.

Even though both the Zhao Family and Li Family had slaughtered pigs, there’s never too much oil.

Especially with the Li Family, Li Hongxiang didn’t lack money. He saved before only because it was hard to buy.

This time, she went to the Zhao Family first to fetch her livestock back. Being alone felt boring, and having livestock to feed was quite nice too.

She brought over dried fruit, ten pounds of rice, and ten pounds of cooking oil.

Zhao Yanli was quite surprised to see Su Yuanyuan back.

"Yuanyuan, why are you back so early this year?"

"It’s alright. Tan Shaoting’s work is busy this year. I also brought you some dried fruit this time. You should taste it quickly; I brought two additional kinds, but I think they’re just okay, not as tasty as fresh fruit."

Zhao Yanli smiled as she accepted it. "Yuanyuan, my Second Brother got married; they went to visit the in-laws today."

"Really, that’s great; now it’s just you sisters at home."

"My Second Sister is getting married in the spring."

"Where’s Xiao Jing’s fiancé from?"

"He’s also from our team; Second Brother-in-law is in a similar situation to us, just him here."

"Just the young couple, but if they don’t have a little mule, they might get tired."

"My Second Brother-in-law said he’d buy a little mule, just for these one hundred acres."

"That’s good. Are you planning to stay here, or go to your big brother’s place?"

"It doesn’t matter where I live, but my Big Brother wants me over. But my Second Sister-in-law is pregnant, so I have to stay here to help with work."

"Haha, you’re quite important. Where’s Xiao Jing?"

"She went to Big Brother’s place. Yuanyuan, my Big Brother and Second Brother have already split the family."

"Then I guess I’ll have to split the things I brought back as well. I still have dried fruit, feel free to come by if you want some."

"Alright, my Second Sister-in-law probably loves this stuff, and my little niece likes it too, so if they want some, they’ll come to your place."

The two girls split the stuff between them. "Yuanyuan, you’re really too kind," Zhao Yanli said with a smile.

"Just because I brought you some food?"

"Of course!"

The two girls laughed and played around.

"Xiao Li, I’m taking the cart to give this stuff to your Big Brother, then I’m heading back; it’s still too cold at home, I need to get back and stoke the fire."

"I won’t be going with you, I’ll stay at home waiting for my Second Brother to come back."

Su Yuanyuan drove the cart, with the ewe following alongside to Zhao Qingxiang’s place.

Sun Yun was also surprised to see Su Yuanyuan back; this girl never returned before spring.

"Yuanyuan, why are you back so early this year?"

"Sister-in-law, you and Xiao Li asked the same thing. Tan Shaoting’s work is too busy, so I came back alone."

She handed some items to Sun Yun.

"Thank you, Yuanyuan. This dried fruit is really nice, Xiao Ling will love it."

Just then Zhao Xiaojing also came out. "Yuanyuan, come inside, it’s warm in here."

"Xiao Jing, I’ll bring you floral fabric in a couple of days as a wedding gift."

Zhao Xiaojing had come around now, so she was back to being as gentle as before, no longer sullen.
