Reborn in a virtual world, before the house was taken away
Chapter 4 Shopping in the City
Feng Qingqing was grateful to see that Director Zhao was still trying to persuade her, but she remained resolute:
“Auntie, I’ve made up my mind. This place is full of memories left by my parents. I want to go to the countryside and start a new life. I think my parents in heaven would be happy for me to have a new beginning.”
Seeing her resolute attitude, Zhao Xiaojuan didn't say anything more. She patted her chest and assured her that she would take care of the job and told her to come see her the next afternoon.
Actually, Zhao Xiaojuan could make the decision now, but she still needs to go back and discuss the amount with her husband first.
After leaving the factory, Feng Qingqing saw that it was still early, so she walked along the road towards the supply and marketing cooperative.
She still had some tickets, but they wouldn't be valid in the countryside. To avoid wasting them, Feng Qingqing planned to go on a shopping spree today.
After arriving in the countryside, it became less convenient to buy things, and there weren't many coupons available. However, since she had space, it was easy for her to bring things with her.
When we arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, there were only a few people inside because it was during working hours.
Feng Qingqing looked around, chose a counter, and took out various receipts from her pocket—actually, her spatial storage.
她手里目前有肥皂票4张、脸盆票2张、毛巾票2张、水壶票1张、糕点票5张、手套票5张、布票... ...
Forty minutes later, Feng Qingqing came out of the supply and marketing cooperative, and both nets were completely full.
She quietly walked to the side of an empty alley, waved her hands, and everything went into her space.
Feng Qingqing slowly made her way back to the family compound. When she was still two or three hundred meters away from the compound, she saw her dear cousin pacing back and forth downstairs with her head down.
His hands were crossed from time to time, making him look somewhat anxious.
Upon seeing this, Feng Qingqing scoffed inwardly, knowing that her cousin wouldn't let the matter rest.
The Jiang family's rise to prominence in their past life was inseparable from the advice and strategies of their cousin.
Take that spatial necklace for example. It was a secret that Feng Qingqing only learned after she had memories of her previous life and followed Jiang Yun in her soul form for a long time.
At this moment, Jiang Yun seemed to have known in advance and deliberately tricked her into giving him the necklace.
Thinking of this, Feng Qingqing narrowed her eyes. It seemed that her cousin had quite a few secrets.
No, she has to find out the truth, otherwise, with this time bomb around, many things will become unpredictable.
Thinking as she walked to Jiang Yun's side:
"Cousin, what are you doing, loitering around my building?"
Upon seeing her return, Jiang Yun immediately said with a happy expression:
"Cousin, you're finally back! I've been waiting for you for ages! Where have you been?"
Feng Qingqing knew that although her words seemed unintentional, she was actually testing her.
She came to stay with her mother for two reasons: firstly, her mother asked her to come and look after her; secondly, she had her own plans.
"Nothing much, I was just bored staying at home, so I took a walk."
"Why did you come? You didn't even tell me you were coming." Feng Qingqing interrupted, not wanting to continue.
Seeing that she didn't want to talk about it, Jiang Yun didn't press her further.
“My mom asked me to come and keep you company. She’s worried about you being home alone. Look how much my mom cares about you, even more than she cares about me, her own daughter. I’m almost jealous.”
After saying that, she acted as if it were true, pretending to show a jealous expression.
In her past life, the mother and daughter used this trick to completely control her. She truly believed that her aunt's family were all good people who treated her like their own mother and daughter.
But as for her now, it's best not to mention her.
"Yes, my aunt treats me very well, and I'm planning to repay her properly," Feng Qingqing said casually.
Although there was nothing wrong with what he said, Jiang Yun felt that Feng Qingqing was acting strangely today, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong.
Putting aside these distracting thoughts, Jiang Yun and Feng Qingqing entered the house together, seemingly familiar with the place.
Knowing that Jiang Yun was coming today, Feng Qingqing had already eaten something on her way back and wasn't hungry, so she told Jiang Yun to get something to eat and then washed up and went back to her room to lie down.
Too many things happened today, and Feng Qingqing was really tired.
When she woke up the next day, she found Jiang Yun sitting at the foot of the bed, looking as if she had been awake for a long time.
Seeing Feng Qingqing get up, he forced a smile:
"Cousin, you're awake! Get up and eat! I've already prepared the food and I'm just waiting for you."
The dinner table.
Jiang Yun watched as Feng Qingqing prepared to eat, hesitating for a long time and glancing at Feng Qingqing every now and then. Feng Qingqing knew what she wanted to do, but ignored her and ate by herself.
I must say, Jiang Yun's cooking skills are still as good as ever.
Seeing that Feng Qingqing ignored her for a long time, Jiang Yun finally spoke up herself:
"Cousin... um, when I came here before, I saw that Aunt was wearing a necklace, and I really liked it. Could you let me see it?"
After saying that, fearing that Feng Qingqing might disagree, he repeated himself a few more times:
"I'm just taking a look, don't overthink it. I really like it, otherwise I wouldn't be asking now. Can you grant me this wish?"
After saying that, she lowered her head, looking very aggrieved.
"You know, my family has always been poor. I've never even seen a bracelet, let alone a necklace." She looked pitiful. If it were Feng Qingqing from her past life, she would have taken it out without hesitation.
But at this moment, Feng Qingqing looked at her with a very confused expression:
"What necklace? When did my mom wear it? I don't remember it."
After saying that, he seemed to seriously consider it carefully.
"It's that silver one, with a tiny heart-shaped pendant, do you remember it?"
"Let me think about it some more..." he said, still looking at her with curiosity.
Why did you suddenly ask that?
"Um... um... it just suddenly came to mind."
Feng Qingqing suddenly had a strange feeling that Jiang Yun might be either very lucky or had a natural intuition for good things.
Otherwise, it's impossible to explain how such an ordinary family could rise to prominence in their past life, with everyone benefiting from their success. She simply doesn't believe that Jiang Yun wasn't involved.
Neither of these scenarios is a good thing for her.
Feng Qingqing suddenly felt a sense of urgency. She wanted to return to that man's side as soon as possible, to the place where he was. That was home, and that was where she felt safe.
"I don't know about the necklace you're talking about. You can go find it yourself. I have something to do, so I'll go out now." After saying that, Feng Qingqing left.
She stored all the valuables in her house in her spatial storage. As for the other large items, Jiang Yun had visited her house many times and was probably more familiar with them than she was now.
After leaving home, Feng Qingqing knew that she would have fewer opportunities to return after going to the countryside, so she had to hurry up and get everything she wanted to do done.
She first went to a state-run bookstore because she knew about the resumption of the college entrance examination and planned to buy a few sets to take back with her.
I bought some stationery and other things and then left the bookstore.
After leaving the bookstore, Feng Qingqing thought for a moment and then went to the recycling station.
If there wasn't enough space, Feng Qingqing wouldn't have planned to come, but since she already had some, she decided to see if she could snag a spot to take back.
The gatekeeper of the scrap yard was an old man, lying on a recliner with his eyes half-closed, seemingly dozing off.
Hearing the greeting, Feng Qingqing hummed and went inside.
Feng Qingqing's space is still at the initial level. Once it reaches level 1, it will be able to scan. At that time, she will definitely be able to find good things at the junkyard.
She spent over an hour picking and choosing amidst her disappointment, finally managing to find two collections of quotations, three old-looking books, a stack of newspapers that looked newly acquired, and an antique-looking jewelry box.
After coming out, the old man glanced at it, asked for two yuan, and then left.
