Reincarnation in the 60s: My Spatial Supermarket Brings Forth Wealth-Chapter 346 - 344: The Impoverished Village

Niu Yingying’s eyes lit up. This scene was so familiar to her; when she was pregnant, Yongsheng also liked to support her like this.

"Big cousin is pregnant!" Wang Xiaofang whispered from the side.

This is what she heard, big cousin hadn’t told her yet.

"Really?" Wang Yongsheng asked, "That’s really great! I’m going to be a grand uncle! Hahaha! I’ll need to have a couple of drinks today!" He laughed and went to freshen up.

He’s very familiar with the house, often visiting, knowing where everything is.

At the dinner table, Wang Yongsheng and his wife kept laughing heartily, in an exceptionally good mood.

Their joy rubbed off on Lin Xue and Zhang Yuan, who couldn’t help but keep smiling.

"Oh, little uncle! Leave the keys here for you. That staff dorm is too small, now Xiaofang is here too, you should move over here to live! Anyway, we can’t come back all year round; just consider it as taking care of the house for us!" Lin Xue took out the house keys.

Anyway, this isn’t her final home, just a house at most, letting little uncle live here also means they can watch over the house.

Also, the staff dorm room is indeed a bit small.

"This..." Wang Yongsheng was uncertain if he should take the keys.

"Yongsheng, we really can’t live well there, even Xiaofang has to sleep in the living room! Let’s move here, live in the side rooms, and not live in the main house, okay? Help tidy up from time to time, clean up a bit! This house will only remain strong if it’s lively!" Niu Yingying said with a smile.

Clearly, because they couldn’t fit in their own house, she wanted very much to move in here. Yet what she said didn’t make Lin Xue annoyed; rather, she nodded in agreement.

"It’s just as auntie says! Little uncle, just take the keys!" Lin Xue placed the keys directly in front of him.

"Alright, little uncle thanks you in advance!"

While having a merry time here, Wang Junsheng’s house was in chaos already.

Originally, Feng Minghua wanted to talk to Lin Xue, seeing if her eldest son could go over there too, and maybe find a job.

But when she came over in the afternoon, people had left already, which made her angry, and she had a big fight with her mother-in-law.

She spoke harshly, and Li Xiuying was so furious she clutched her chest and lay on the bed unable to get up.

Wang Junsheng couldn’t take watching his mother being bullied like this, so he dragged Minghua home and gave her a good beating.

Despite Feng Minghua not being able to return to her maternal home, her brazen nature increased rather than decreased. With a burning stick, she hit Wang Junsheng, drawing blood.

The team leader and commune secretary were called over, insisting Wang Junsheng had to divorce.

They also demanded she pay for medical expenses and take her daughter with her, leaving the son behind.

The chaos was unbelievable; initially, the grandmother planned to send both children to study, but with such a fuss, not only study but even having a father was in jeopardy. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Lin Xue heard nothing of this, having talked the night through. The next morning, after a simple breakfast, they set off.

Wang Yongsheng and his wife prepared a lot of snacks for the journey, filling the car trunk again.

After they left, Wang Yongsheng and his wife took leave and moved house.

However, they still lived in the main house.

Lin Xue had instructed them to live in the main house, and not touch stuff in the side rooms!

The main house was the parents’ and grandmother’s room; there wasn’t much inside. But their room was different, with lots of belongings not taken away. It held many memories; she always thought about leaving it intact to bring siblings back someday, which would be nice.

Setting out, they didn’t stop by Xiao Yang’s place, heading straight for Capital City.

Having come once before, the route was memorized, unlike the first time when they’d have to stop and ask locals if they were heading in the right direction.

Close to nightfall, as they passed a county town, they agreed not to stop for the night.

Leaving the county town, within fifty miles, it turned completely dark.

"Pull over, hubby! Let’s stop and cook dinner!" Lin Xue spoke.

Along the way, Zhang Yuan drove slowly, frequently stopping for water and rest, so although the road looked lengthy, they covered less distance than anticipated.

"Alright! I’ll find a good spot to park! Let’s get some sleep! Exhausted!" Zhang Yuan nodded.

Driving for such a long haul was indeed tiring.

Parking the car, they entered the space.

They cooked a meal, enjoyed a delightful dinner, took a hot shower, and went to bed comfortably.

Bright and early the next morning, after waking in the space, they stepped out to breathe fresh air.

Spring outdoors was still relatively cold, so they strolled in the slightly chilly environment before returning to the space for breakfast.

The space was truly a travel essential.

Eat and drink whenever desired; even without towns, one could retreat into a space offering five-star hotel-like comfort.

Lin Xue hadn’t spared any effort developing this space over the years, and now it was sophisticated to the point of perfection.

With everything sorted, they hit the road again.

Progressing with intermittent stops, they paused to admire beautiful scenery and explored village life when passing through towns.

"Today, we might not be so lucky; it’s all villages here, with distances between villages quite close," Zhang Yuan noted after driving a stretch, realizing nearby villages were set close together. Should they park between two villages, a passerby might find an empty car suspicious.

Back then, small cars were indeed rare—three or four per county was considered plenty.

"What should we do? Find a place to stay?" Lin Xue asked.

Having sought lodging on the way, it was natural to consider this option again.

"It looks like that’s our only option; otherwise, we’ll have to sleep in the car or drive through the night!" Zhang Yuan said.

"Let’s find lodging! Driving tired is dangerous! You won’t let me drive! Spending the night in the car is exhausting; might as well drive overnight!"

Moreover, driving late into the night may be unsafe; better to find a friendly local household to stay overnight.

"Alright! Let’s look for a bigger house to ask for lodging; they should have spare rooms!" Zhang Yuan reasoned.

He wouldn’t want his wife to suffer, especially since she was pregnant and already unwell.

"Earlier, entering the village, I noticed a household with a spacious courtyard and multiple rooms; perhaps we should ask them!"

Thus, they turned the car around, heading to the house Lin Xue mentioned to see if there was a spare room.

An elderly woman sat at the gate, appearing to be in her sixties, sitting alone and looking afar.

Lin Xue got out of the car, went up to her, "Grandma, we’re from Capital City, passing through as it’s getting late. May we stay the night?"

The elderly woman’s gaze remained unchanged, still fixed at a distance. Upon closer approach, Lin Xue realized she was blind.

Upon hearing a voice, the elderly woman discerned its source before slowly speaking, "There are people at home! You can go and ask!"

Lin Xue acknowledged and walked into the courtyard, with Zhang Yuan following closely, fearing any mishap.

The yard was quite spacious, and an empty courtyard made it seem even larger.

Swept clean, the earthy houses showed age but lacked any untidiness, exuding a particularly pleasant impression.
