Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 470: 470 performance in ’67

Su Yuanyuan laughed; this punishment was indeed quite top-notch. Getting a group of artists to undergo boot camp? She believed Tan Shaoting would definitely arrange for someone very strict to go over.

Many people in the audience noticed that Cao Jinling from the Cao Family was being ostracized.

Actually, this was normal, after all, her dad had already left this place, out of sight, out of mind.

Cao Jinling got up from the ground in grief and indignation but insisted on finishing the performance, which instead received a lot of sympathy from people.

What Cao Jinling wanted was exactly this result, thinking to herself, there’s no way they can frame me and just let it slide like that.

She secretly glanced at Tan Shaoting, finding that he had no expression at all.

Could it be that he really looks down on her? She reluctantly looked at Su Yuanyuan, who was ignored next to him.

Indeed, this woman does look a little better than her, but she is just a country girl. What does she have? Not a bit of help. What’s the use?

Seeing that the two of them weren’t interacting either, she felt a bit more at ease, maybe Tan Shaoting is just such a cold person, to his wife, it’s just duty, there’s no affection.

The next program was a solo, and the lady singing really sang beautifully, her voice was as pleasant as a nightingale’s.

The three kids didn’t like these things, so they were playing with puzzle rings in their hands.

Zhang Yaohan also wasn’t interested. Su Yuanyuan was quite puzzled, Zhang Yaohan was still single, how could he not be interested in the beauties on stage? Could it be that technical talents really have men’s brains?

Next up was another solo, but this time it was a gentleman.

Su Yuanyuan thought this gentleman sang very well. Moreover, he looked quite good too.

Tan Shaoting had been paying attention to his wife, seeing her actually staring at a man, and even with a full smile. Now he was not pleased.

Sitting up straight, yet he held his wife’s hand ”Look at me, I’m good-looking.”

If they were at home, Su Yuanyuan would definitely complain about Tan Shaoting, but in this setting, she just scratched his hand in his grasp and obediently stopped looking at the male performer.

Tan Shaoting was excited after being scratched. Good grief, almost embarrassed himself. So he held onto his wife’s hand and didn’t let go.

The following programs had singing, dancing, and comedic dialogues; they were indeed quite talented.

After the cultural event ended, it was time to go to the canteen to eat. Today was like a New Year’s celebration for everyone. Of course, Tan Shaoting had to attend the gathering.

”Xiao Su, the stewed meat in the canteen today is really delicious.”

Watching Zhang Yaohan eating without any regard for his image, Su Yuanyuan wanted to remind him that a lady was watching him. But the words stopped at her lips; it was his own business.

Alcohol was not allowed here, even though some leaders drank, it was done at private gatherings; in this setting, everyone ate properly.

The meals were arranged on Tan Shaoting’s orders, so they were the best. Today’s braised pork, each person had a serving in a lunchbox, it was satisfying.

The four kids chatted while eating; their topics were not of adult interest. They had their own joys.

After dinner, the family slowly walked back. The three kids ran ahead.

”Yuanyuan, when the kids turn three, let’s test them; if they can cultivate, they can lay the foundation.

It’s best to have medicinal ingredients. That way, it’ll be twice the result with half the effort.”

”The ingredients for Bone Marrow Cleansing Soup? I seem to have some, but I’m not sure.”

Tan Shaoting was taken aback. ”I’ll check after we test them.”

That night, Tan Shaoting was relentless, eventually using the Dual Cultivation Method.

”You’re pushing it too far.”

”Who asked you to tempt me?”

”When did that happen?” Su Yuanyuan thought Tan Shaoting was not even trying to find a good excuse.

”When you scratched my palm.”

”That was tempting you?”

”Yes, that’s how I felt.”

The next day, Su Yuanyuan really didn’t want to get up. It was too much.

But the three kids woke up on time, ”Wife, you stay in bed, I’ll handle it.”

Su Yuanyuan rolled her eyes at Tan Shaoting, she wasn’t that shameless.

Six or seven years had passed; time really flew by. As Su Yuanyuan dressed, she thought about her journey since she transmigrated.

It felt like it all happened just yesterday.

Breakfast was made by Tan Shaoting - egg pancakes, corn grits porridge, stir-fried cabbage, and shredded carrots.

The kids were still young. Su Yuanyuan was afraid they’d lack vitamins or something, so carrots were almost a daily thing, the kids were already used to it, they’d all eat it.

After breakfast, it was rare for the family to be together, so the five of them sat on the kang and played with puzzle rings.

Suddenly Qi Wen stopped, ”Mom, Dad, Teacher Zhang is late today.”

Su Yuanyuan chuckled. ”Qi Wen, today, tomorrow and the day after are holidays. Teachers need a break too.”

”Oh, I see.”

The three of them played more at ease. Sometimes they’d even spout some foreign language.

”Wife, you teach me too.”

”Haven’t you already memorized the dictionary?”

The couple began to converse in a foreign language.

The three children came over when they heard, interjecting a sentence or two from time to time.

While the family of five was chatting lively, they heard someone knocking on the door.

Tan Shaoting frowned, ”Yuanyuan, you go.”

Cao Jinling felt she had suffered a huge grievance today, so she came over crying.

Su Yuanyuan knew who was outside. Holding back a smile, she got off the bed, while Tan Shaoting stayed with their three kids continuing the chat.

Su Yuanyuan opened the door, and Cao Jinling’s face was filled with disappointment. She quickly adjusted her expression.

”Comrade, what’s the matter?”

”Comrade, is the leader at home?”

”Yes, but he doesn’t see ladies when he’s at home, so what’s your business?” Hadn’t she made it clear enough?

”Comrade, I want to see the leader. I have something to report.”

”I’m really sorry, if you have something, report it to your leader, escalate step by step, what you’re doing is inappropriate.”

”Comrade, I really have an urgent matter.”

Su Yuanyuan frowned at Cao Jinling. Didn’t she understand people’s words?

”I’ve told you, if you have a problem, report it to your leader. Is it really appropriate to bypass them?”

Cao Jinling lowered her head, inwardly resentful, thinking, if this is how it is, then she would write a letter of complaint to the authorities. Even if there wasn’t obstruction, a bad reputation would spread, wouldn’t it?

She left with her head down, her figure looking very desolate.

Su Yuanyuan returned inside, giving Tan Shaoting a look. How could he still attract entanglements?

Tan Shaoting had an innocent look on his face, he simply wouldn’t bother with someone who harbored ill intentions.
