Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 821’s Departure

Shi Jing nodded obediently. Jiang Xinyu held Feifei and whispered in her ear, "Feifei, nothing and no one is more important than you, do you understand what Mom means?"

Jiang Feifei felt very complicated inside; her mother was telling her not to expose the secret.

In fact, after living together for five years, Jiang Feifei had genuinely regarded them as her true family, feeling a closeness from the heart.

But she also knew that her secret was too big, and it’s better that her clueless dad and brother didn’t know about it.

Jiang Xinyu gave Jianbin a hug and said, "Aunt Jiang will be waiting for you to come home for the New Year."

"Aunt Jiang, don’t worry, I’m the older brother, I’ll definitely take care of my younger siblings."

"Alright, but if there’s real danger, Aunt Jiang hopes you will take care of yourself first."

Old Yang, listening to Jiang Xinyu’s words from the side, felt a bit reassured. Old Han’s son was living very well at Xiao Wei’s house. Xiao Jiang was very sensible; in the future, when his own son grows up, he will send him over too. Being with an incapable mother is not good for him.

Jiang Xinyu only left after watching them, a group of twelve, get into the car before driving to the supply and marketing cooperative.

There weren’t many candles left at home, and she needed to buy salt. She was about to pickle vegetables like sauerkraut and needed a large amount of salt.

But seeing the coarse salt at the cooperative, Jiang Xinyu didn’t have the courage to buy it and ended up spending a big sum on fine salt.

She bought the largest amounts of brown sugar and white sugar.

After shopping, she drove home, directly driving into the courtyard.

There were just four of them left at home. The two of them didn’t go to work either, since before Wei Kaiyun left, he had repeatedly told them not to let Jiang Xinyu work. The radishes and cabbages at home were also entrusted to Li Yungui to find someone to help harvest.

The house suddenly felt much quieter, making Jiang Xinyu feel uncomfortable, as if something was missing.

The two little ones were about to turn three months old. Shi Xian especially looked like Feifei, resembling at least sixty percent, making the little one particularly pretty, though his temper wasn’t good.

After eating, the little guy played on his own, flipping back and forth with his eyes open.

Jiang Xinyu ignored him, leaning aside to read.

She thought they should have arrived in the city by now. With so many people, they would surely be able to take good care of the three little ones.

In fact, Jiang Xinyu was just scared. Feifei was too beautiful. She could never forget what happened on the train when she returned from school last year. But the little girl wanted to explore outside, and she truly couldn’t refuse her.

This time, the little girl woke up too. After feeding her, Jiang Xinyu also practiced turning over.

Looking at the two children wriggling like caterpillars, Jiang Xinyu’s thoughts were pulled back.

Shi Xian might really have the superb physique that the Monk Master described, as his movements were visibly stronger than the little girl’s.

He could already flip over very swiftly, and it looked like he wanted to crawl forward.

At noon, the two just made do with a meal. In the afternoon, Li Yungui came over to deliver money.

"Teacher Jiang, the raw materials were delivered today."

"That’s pretty quick."

"My brother is in a hurry; he’s helping to handle things up there. The amount he needs is too large, and he will take away the corn shakers made today."

"Village Chief Li, you can find people of good character and strength from our village to work. After all, making money in the future benefits everyone."

"Xiao Wei said the same thing to me. I’ve already chosen ten people, and I’ll have them go find Master Lu tomorrow."

In winter, doing this won’t be cold; we can work and earn money, which is definitely good.

Li Yungui stayed for a while and then left, especially since the man of the house wasn’t home.

Jiang Xinyu spent the entire afternoon in boredom at home.

She thought about going up the mountain tomorrow since the payments for the raw materials were made, leaving for a day wouldn’t be an issue.

As it was getting dark, two large trucks entered the village.

Li Yunqiao also came along. The three brothers and the strong men from the village unloaded the trucks together; they were those initial iron blocks from the steel factory.

They were unloaded directly at the pesticide factory, even though it was called a pesticide factory, there was no trace of it now.

It would just be ready tomorrow, and Li Yunqiao promised the truck would transport bottles and caps over tomorrow.

The tractor was too bumpy; they were afraid the glass bottles would break.

Jiang Xinyu directly paid 2,400 yuan, no need to pay for shipping, as it was subsidized by the city.

"Yungui, bring the slip and go back with me. Tomorrow, you can come back with the truck."

But you need to speed up the production of the machines now. The provincial leaders have been alerted, urging us to speed up production; all difficulties will be resolved here."

Li Yungui recalled what Wei Kaiyun said, "Brother, the molds are already made, and if there’s enough molten iron, production can be increased right away."

"Is this the decision you all came to?"

"We think we can collaborate with the steel factory.

But we’ll continue production at home because the unified selling price is just forty."

Li Yunqiao understood his brother’s point. "Okay, I won’t leave today; I’ll go discuss it with the steel factory in the county tomorrow."

This means it can’t remain a secret."

"Brother, Xiao Wei already said this can’t be kept a secret."

"It’s good that you all understand."

The two drivers also stayed over to leave together in the morning.

In the afternoon, Li Yungui asked Jiang Xinyu for a loan of one hundred yuan.

"Village Chief Li, is this enough?"

"It’s enough, don’t worry. It’s just to be prepared for emergencies."

Jiang Xinyu lay on the kang by herself at night; the two little ones beside her slept soundly, but she couldn’t fall asleep.

She wondered how the four of them were doing. They must be on the train by now. Wei Kaiyun’s plan was to go wherever there was a train, as long as the direction was the same.

In the sleeper cab of the train were just the five of them. Shi Jing and Jianbin shared a bed in the upper bunk, Jiang Feifei was also in the upper bunk, and below were Wei Kaiyun and Shang Zhenkun, ensuring the three children’s safety to a great extent.

Shang Zhenkun also had his own shadow of worry because it hadn’t been that long since Feifei nearly got taken by human traffickers.

The remaining seven had hard seats. Old Yang alternated rests with Wei Kaiyun. He had also heard about Feifei’s incident, making him even more vigilant.

Chaoyang and Xiang Dong sat on a train for the first time, but after half a day, the novelty wore off, especially in the evening. The smell in the carriage made them feel uncomfortable.

Shuanzi and the other three didn’t fare much better; it was their first time on a train and they felt uneasy as well.

For dinner, Wei Kaiyun took his family to eat, while Old Yang took the other six. Honestly, it wasn’t very safe on trains back then, so Wei Kaiyun stayed to watch the luggage, alternating rests to avoid getting too tired.
