Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 367: 367 arrived

Zhang Fusheng held Zhao Yanping in his arms. This young wife was becoming more beautiful day by day, and she seemed increasingly youthful.

Standing next to her, he felt unworthy of her.

Indeed, this matter hadn’t left any mark on Zhao Yanping’s heart.

As for Xiang Zhiqiang, now when she thought about him, he was just that cowardly person who had wronged her.

The next day, she wrote a letter to her younger sister. She told her that now she had learned many words and could write letters.

She also asked about the situation of other family members. The reply from her younger sister was rather general, saying everything was fine. She mentioned that her second sister-in-law was pregnant again.

With the autumn tasks, the younger sister was also particularly exhausted.

Yanli received the letters ten days later; both arrived together, along with the delayed letter from Yuanyuan.

This time, Zhao Yanping was excited to write to Su Yuanyuan, filling five pages but still feeling she hadn’t covered everything.

There was so much to say, so she let herself go and kept writing.

She recounted everything that had happened since they left.

Working all day and writing letters at night didn’t make her feel tired.

The three generations of the Li Family also wrote to Su Yuanyuan. Their letters were much simpler, just some greetings. Of course, Li Liyun also mentioned the matter with Xiang Zhiqiang.

They were unaware that Su Yuanyuan and her husband were already on their way to the Capital and were not there. Even if the letters arrived, it would be a long time before they could be read.

”Tan Shaoting, what do you think is going on with Zheng Lanying?”

”Zhang Chunsheng didn’t say anything, probably not a good thing. We’ll find out when we get there. Everyone is curious about what she’ll say about the future. So we better get there as soon as possible. Even if we’re a few days late, if that woman won’t speak, she’ll probably just wait for you.”

”Zheng Lanying is too naive, I wonder what she was thinking; this will ruin her completely.”

”It’s her own decision.”

”Yes, her own decision.”

Taking advantage of this pit stop, Su Yuanyuan let the three children out and took them for a stroll outside.

Honestly, the three children were already very well-behaved.

It’s fortunate they had space, so the children didn’t suffer.

Halfway, whenever they reached a farm equipment station, they would fill up an extra barrel of gas. This way, storing it for future use would be convenient.

Back on the road again, since the children were awake, Su Yuanyuan didn’t send them into the space.

They were wearing thermal tops and pants placed on the space table, the fabric was stretchy, making it comfortable for the children to move around.

By night, it was Su Yuanyuan’s turn to drive, and Tan Shaoting slept in the back. Actually, he didn’t need to sleep, but his wife was considerate.

So Tan Shaoting happily rested in the back.

Half a month later, at the end of July, they reached the Capital. This time, Tan Shaoting drove and Su Yuanyuan watched the three children in the back.

After all, there were too many people here, and who knew what kind of characters might be around.

Su Yuanyuan was already scared because of Zheng Lanying’s issue. So she behaved honestly; when it was time to eat, she would get off the car to have a meal.

They went directly to the garrison. Zeng Zhenqing was also there.

Seeing the family of five, Zeng Zhenqing marveled, recalling the scene from a few years ago when he met the couple; now, they even had children.

”Congratulations to you both. Triplets, that’s unheard of.”

”Thank you, leader.”

Zeng Zhenqing asked someone to take Su Yuanyuan to rest. Only the two of them were left in the office.

It was only three hours later that Tan Shaoting came out; knowing where his wife and children were staying, he came over.

It was just a simple room, but with a large heated brick bed. The three children were playing on the bed, and Su Yuanyuan lay on one side reading a book.

”All settled?”

”Yes, should we eat at the cafeteria or should I bring it back?”

”You bring it back.” Su Yuanyuan really didn’t want to move. It wasn’t physical; it felt more like mental exhaustion.

The supply here was quite good. Tan Shaoting brought back two lunch boxes, and a young man who followed him brought the meals.

Thanking the young man, the couple finally started their meal.

”This isn’t bad; the meat is quite tasty. The fish is also good,” Su Yuanyuan commented as she ate.

”These are the leader’s provisions, given to us.”

”I thought so.”

”But it’s just one extra fish, the rest is the same.”

There was no rice, just steamed buns, but the person who made them must have been quite skillful. The steamed buns were exceptionally delicious.

After eating their fill, Tan Shaoting went out to clean all the lunch boxes and then came back inside to lie down.

”Nothing to do this afternoon?”

”No. That woman hasn’t arrived yet. But she should get here within the next two or three days.

Yuanyuan, this woman was arrested because of Xiang Zhiqiang.”

”Xiang Zhiqiang?”

”Yes, Ma Changshun’s eldest daughter was with Xiang Zhiqiang. It was during spring planting when they were caught together, so she killed Xiang Zhiqiang and injured the woman.”

”Then how did Zheng Lanying get arrested?”

”I heard from the leader that Zheng Lanying said many things that drew attention from that side.”

”Digging her own grave?”

”That’s roughly what it means.”

Hearing Tan Shaoting recount the events was truly disturbing. One couldn’t grasp the focal points of these gossips. It wasn’t satisfying. If it were Zhao Yanli, she would surely narrate it vividly.

But once Zheng Lanying arrived, everything would be known.

”What happened to Ma Dongmei?”

”Death penalty.”

”Really short-sighted. I really don’t know what’s so good about Xiang Zhiqiang. Even his looks aren’t outstanding.”

”I heard Zheng Lanying wanted to use Xiang Zhiqiang for work, and arranged for Ma Dongmei to marry Xiang Zhiqiang through a scheme.”

”A scheme?”

”Yes, she got the two drunk, and then they ended up together.”

”Truly reaping what she sowed, right? I really don’t get what this villager was thinking. Isn’t it obvious how others would perceive her if such a thing happened in her home? How naive.”

How could someone handle such foolishness? What were they thinking?

This truly broadened horizons.

”Okay, stop thinking about it. That woman insists on seeing you before she’ll talk.”

”Really trying to harm me, huh,” Su Yuanyuan smiled wryly. But it was fine too.

She was aware. Even if it was a private conversation, there was bound to be someone listening in. This way, no one would suspect her anymore.

The three children had woken up.

”Wife, should we go out for a walk?”

”Where can we go? I don’t want to go out. I’d rather stay in the room.”

Quite lethargic, considering this was still the garrison, it was best to stay put. There was really no need to seek discomfort.

”If you don’t want to go out, I’ll take the three kids out for a look.”
