Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Comeback in the Era Tales

Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Eldest Sister-in-law Elopes with a Man 36

Liu Family.

After Liu Baozhu left, with no one to tend to Liu Fuchai, he completely gave up on working the fields, spending his days wandering around the streets, thus meeting a gang of small-town hoodlums.

That day, Yuan Chun had just arrived home from work, and 007 reported to her, ”Host, Liu Fuchai has acquired a batch of goods, do you want to snag a bargain?”

”Yes, it’s better for me to take them than have them benefit overseas countries.”

”Then, host, be prepared. That batch of goods will be shipped out before dawn. Tonight is the best opportunity for you to act; after tonight, this batch will leave the South City limits.”

”Alright, got it. Thank you, 007.”

Yuan Chun rolled up her sleeves, washed her hands and face, and went to the kitchen to boil water.

As she stoked the fire, she took out a large stainless steel basin from her space, filled with a mixed meal she had prepared.

There was meat and vegetables paired with white rice, and Yuan Chun ate with great enjoyment.

After a bowl of food settled in her stomach, a pot of water also came to a boil.

She scooped out some hot water, washed the bowls and utensils clean, and stored them in her space. Yuan Chun then went to the room and fetched a thermos flask, filling it with hot water.

She also filled a large earthenware pot with water.

This was the water she normally used for cool boiled water.

The remaining hot water was poured into a large wooden tub, which she then carried to the bathroom in the backyard.

After washing up, Yuan Chun conveniently also washed her clothes, hanging them on the rope in the backyard, then poured the bathwater onto the vegetable garden.

The vegetable gardens in the front and back yards were not small; the vegetables Yuan Chun planted exceeded what she could eat alone, with most being cooked and stored in her space for slow consumption.

A small portion was sent to the Qin family for her relatives to eat.

The Qin family hadn’t divided assets; sixteen or seventeen people were crowded around a small vegetable patch, and the vegetables were essentially insufficient, relying on women gathering wild vegetables from the mountain during agricultural downtimes.

Not long ago, Yuan Chun suggested splitting the family estate to her parents.

After dividing the estate, the Qin family not only raised four more chickens but also gained two pieces of land for their compound. With the division, Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin only needed to feed themselves, making life easier, and Yuan Chun could better take care of her parents.

Of course, Yuan Chun didn’t neglect her two brothers.

Every time she visited the Qin family, Yuan Chun brought gifts for her brothers, sometimes a bottle of wine, sometimes a pair of liberation shoes, sometimes a pack of cigarettes.

In short, Yuan Chun, according to the original owner’s wishes, was doing her best to take care of her family.

Although the original owner’s two sisters-in-law weren’t good people, they hadn’t harmed the original owner, so Yuan Chun maintained surface-level courtesy with them, without being too close or distant.

”Host, right in that courtyard ahead, there’s a hidden room inside guarded by six people, Liu Fuchai among them.”

At midnight, Yuan Chun reached outside a courtyard near the town outskirts, followed 007’s clues to climb over the backyard wall, then hypnotized the six guards, boldly entering the basement.

The thirty-square-meter basement was filled to the brim with rectangular wooden boxes over a meter wide, packed with antiques the group had collected from South City.

Among them were some national treasures.

Yuan Chun pried open one wooden box, finding a pair of beautifully painted vases within... Although Yuan Chun was clueless about antiques, she knew some ancient scripts.

She took out one vase, turned it over, and glanced at the writing on the bottom...

”It’s three hundred years old! In future times, this vase alone could fetch tens of millions... I’m about to strike it rich...”

Yuan Chun’s heart was filled with joy.

She carefully put down the vase, just about to close the wooden box, when 007 suddenly exclaimed in panic, ”Bad news, host, someone’s coming.”
