Quick Transmigration: Always Just a Passerby

Chapter 390 70 Don't care about saving face 4

"I know, I know."

Zeng Tupo patted his chest and guaranteed it.

He's not good at anything else, but once he's in bed, he can fall asleep the moment he closes his eyes.

No one in the Zeng family could sleep as well as Zeng Tupo.

After giving his instructions to his younger brother, Uncle Zeng, he hurriedly went home to sleep.

Zeng Tupo was too lazy to wait for the water to heat up, so he used the water his wife had used to wash her to mix with cold water to take a shower. After showering, he pulled the jade pendant into his palm and went to sleep.

It was as if the other two people in the family didn't exist.

He didn't ask Wang Meihua to prepare some dry food for him.

Zeng Yueping knew.

Her father is planning to freeload off his uncle's food.

Didn't see it.

Lying on the broken bed in a daze, Zeng Yueping used his mental power to wander around the Honggu Production Team and accidentally slipped into the old house.

Being idle is also idle.

Zeng Yueping gave her grandparents a good night's sleep.

Chicken soup, white rice, steamed buns... the elderly couple ate until they were stuffed in their dreams, and almost missed work.

My uncle and aunt are still awake.

They whispered as they assigned tasks for tomorrow.

"How is Xiaoping? Did you ask Tupo if his parents went to someone's manure field to watch the fun and came back smelling like dung?"

Uncle Zeng looked at the sky and the earth, but not at his wife.

Then, as if remembering something, he changed the subject.

"Your mouth is not as good as Deng Xiaoping's mother's. If the educated youth talk to you, don't say a word, just beat them and run away."

Zeng Yueping's aunt rolled her eyes at the man.

"I'll get up early to carry her out and put her in a wild grave... I think what Xiaoping did today was good."

Why didn't we think of that before? We could have stalled her for years; even if the educated youth office and the commune came, they wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

"Is this... okay? It should be fine, right?"

"It's not like we're going to kill her, so why not? If she causes trouble for the Zeng family, we'll just let the third son take the blame."

Zeng Sanxiao, who was eavesdropping, scratched his head.

His small frame couldn't carry the educated youth, so what if no one believed him if he took the blame?

No.

He should ask his second brother.

Zeng Yueping was both amused and exasperated, so he simply took out a "lucky money insurance" policy for everyone in the Zeng family's old house.

And then there were her parents, whose snoring was like thunder.

All the talismans were pasted up.

This way, even if there is real danger, it can be cleverly avoided.

To be honest, the original owner of this body was no ordinary person either; at a young age, her snoring was louder than her parents'.

Tsk tsk.

The system is not in place.

If I'm asleep, no one should record my snoring, right?

With a skeptical attitude, Zeng Yueping played on her phone all night until guests came to her house.

It was still dark.

The Honggu production team remained quiet.

Uncle Zeng and his eldest son quickly climbed over the wall and got in.

Zeng Yueping didn't sleep all night. When she saw her unlucky uncle come to the house, she asked Rong Xiaoshu to scratch her father awake.

She herself then began making a series of phone calls.

"Tongzi, Tongzi, how's your aquaculture business going?"

Lynx Little Commander: Hunting, please do not disturb.

Having received no effective response from her friends, and after watching her father get up slowly without rinsing his mouth or washing his face before leaving the house, Zeng Yueping drank a bowl of calming soup and went to sleep.

Going to work? Not a chance.

The original owner took a three-day leave.

Ah ~

Let her enjoy a life without having to work in the original owner's place~

Even just one day would be fine~

......

The shortage of dry rations was infuriating.

The Zeng family's journey into the city was quite smooth.

Rong Xiaoshu was worried that Pingbao's biological father would starve to death, so she threw two sweet potatoes, each about the size of a sports water bottle, on the ground. They tasted great raw.

Zeng Tupo, who was traveling in the dark, couldn't even move his foot when he tried to kick it.

Fortunately, he didn't injure himself.

He picked up the large sweet potato by the dim light overhead and sniffed it.

It's the taste of the food.

Hey, there's another one over there.

The two sweet potatoes felt very heavy in my hand.

However, the three members of the Zeng family could only afford to eat half of it when they got together.

I plan to take the remaining one and a half to use for farming.

I'm wondering if I can secretly grow some big sweet potatoes at home to eat.

The banyan tree patted its head, realizing it hadn't handled the matter well; it would just have to throw some fruit at it from now on.

“￥%@” (Calling Xiao Yi, calling Xiao Yi, remember to exchange some food for them when you exchange the jade tokens later.)

Black Market Xiao Yi pulled down his turban and glanced in the direction of the Red Valley Production Team.

"understood."

She will stay here to collect the jade pendants and then go to the capital.

Zeng Yueping held this jade pendant, and every woman in the Fu family of Beijing had one—including Xiao Langzhai's amnesiac mother.

This thing didn't exist in my past life.

Xiao Langzhai's family was taken away quietly and raised like pigs as mascots. It wasn't until years later, after a paternity test, that they were able to take back their belongings.

The original owner felt that Xiao's family living in the production team was a ticking time bomb.

It's best to send them away as soon as possible.

There is absolutely no resentment.

When she was little, Xiao would secretly give her the water from the pot when she was hungry.

Ok.

Xiao Yi took the jade token to the capital to quickly send Xiao Lang and his family away, thus beginning the power struggle within the capital.

There was a knock on the door.

The black market boss, who had long been subdued, opened the door to find three dark-faced farmers.

Laughed him to death.

Is this some kind of disguise, like smearing soot and mud on one's face?

"Hmph~ Heavenly King covers the Earth Tiger, speak."

While Zeng Tupo was still looking completely bewildered, Uncle Zeng spoke up with a composed expression.

"The kitten catches the tiger."

"Ah."

The leader yawned and led them into the courtyard, handing the men over to his underlings who then took them to the inner room.

It has been checked and is jade.

Let's leave it to Boss Yi.

Yi Laoda had connections in Beijing and took on the job of finding people.

He's someone who deals in junk and doesn't want to get involved.

To avoid getting into something potentially fatal.

......

The process of exchanging the jade pendant for money tickets was completed before dawn.

The three were chased out of the courtyard by the gang leader.

Zeng Tupo clutched a handful of loose change and exchanged it for cold medicine, brown sugar, soap, and three cold steamed buns in the courtyard.

Could this be considered an unexpected windfall?

My daughter is so lucky; it's good that she was the one I gave birth to.

Zeng Tupo was so excited that his teeth were chattering.

"Big brother, can I pinch you? I feel like I'm dreaming..."

Uncle Zeng pushed his stunned eldest son over with his backhand.

"Go ahead and hit him, he's young and can take a beating."

After saying that, he tore off a small half of the steamed bun and started eating it. He put the rest away and took it home for his parents, wife, and children to eat.

Zeng Tupo was not one to bully the younger generation.

He only tentatively grabbed his nephew.

"How come my older brother has changed? He always pushes my nephew to step up when something happens..."

Uncle Zeng replied to him irritably.

"I'm just worried that if you were in the family, who could handle it?"

Living alone is simply a matter of out of sight, out of mind.

"..."

With the banyan sapling protecting them, the three members of the Zeng family went into the grove again, exchanged a basket of things, and then began their journey back.

Honggu Production Team.

Old Mr. and Old Mrs. Zeng were woken up again.

In the next room.

Seeing that her husband had been gone for a long time, Aunt Zeng Yueping couldn't lie still and decided to go and meet with Xiang Zhiqing so that she could appreciate the elegance of their ancestors.

It was still dark outside.

She threw on a tattered dress and went out without combing her hair. A few minutes later, she found a lump of something on her back.

The banyan sapling followed suit, busily checking and filling in any gaps.
