Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1030: This Is Fate
Xinyan didn’t want to hide anything from her good friend: "Actually, He has already talked with my parents. If it weren’t for so special reasons, we might have had the wedding banquet before the end of the year.
However, it shouldn’t be too far off either. Don’t worry, I’ll let you know as soon as it’s decided."
Zhao Jianlan happily raised her hand and swore, "Don’t worry, I’ll take leave if I have to and definitely attend your wedding."
Seeing her adorable deanor, Xinyan also laughed: "Alright, we agreed on that."
The two of them joked around for a while, then talked about their studies.
Zhao Jianlan couldn’t help but give a thumbs up: "Xinyan, you’re really amazing, I can’t even catch up to you no matter how hard I try. I can’t imagine the intensity of your studies. If I were you, I’d probably scratch my head bald."
Xinyan didn’t respond, just watched her exaggerated gestures, caught up in her own excitent.
After chatting for a bit, He Jinxuan returned, accompanied by Lu Haibo, whose eyes hadn’t left Zhao Jianlan since he entered, clearly indicating he had sothing to say to her.
Xinyan tactfully found an excuse to give the two so privacy.
Lu Hai gratefully offered: "Once you’ve finished, I’ll drive you back."
Xinyan accepted without hesitation, as there was a family dinner at the He Family today. She didn’t want to go back too far, considering that if she took the bus ho, it would likely be dark by the ti she arrived.
Xinyan waved at Zhao Jianlan: "You go ahead; we have things to do too."
Then she pointed to the items she had taken out from her bag earlier and said: "Specialties from Beijing, I forgot to take them out earlier. Let everyone at ho try them tonight."
Zhao Jianlan glanced at them: "You’re too honest, just bringing a little would’ve been fine, why bring so much?"
Xinyan laughed: "Who knows when I’ll be back next ti, so I might as well let everyone have their fill."
Indeed, she brought along three roast ducks, several boxes of various Beijing pastries, and so dried fruits she had made in space.
Zhao Jianlan was touched: "Xinyan, you still rember I love dried fruits the most; I just love you."
He Jinxuan saw Xinyan had zipped up the bag, he took it over, greeted everyone, and led her away.
As they walked a distance away from the Zhao Family, they could still hear Zhao Jianlan’s laughter.
The two of them headed towards the area where He Jinxuan had previously stayed. Xinyan brought Beijing specialties to the Zhang Family, Xie Family, Cheng Family, and Zhao Family, who had all helped her before.
They were surrounded as soon as they reached the entrance of the alley.
Aunt Xie pulled them into the courtyard, where everyone exchanged pleasantries, and Granny Xie said: "This is fate; Jinxuan is blessed."
Sister Cheng cheerfully chid in: "It seems that Providence has made arrangents."
They didn’t stay long; after chatting for a while, they distributed the things they brought. Since no one was ho at the Zhao Family today, Xinyan entrusted Cheng Family’s Sister-in-law to deliver them there in the evening.
Then she personally went to the other side of the alley to visit the Zhang Family, where Aunt Zhang was overjoyed: "Oh my, Xinyan, when did you co back?"
Aside from the elderly couple, everyone else in the Zhang Family had gone to a wedding dinner and hadn’t returned yet.
The elderly couple didn’t want to go out in the cold, so they didn’t know Xinyan had returned.
Uncle Zhang served so specialty food brought back by his grandson from the South: "Seems like you’ve got so good news coming, right?"
He Jinxuan replied: "Yes, I’m working on it. There should be good news after the New Year."
The elderly couple smiled and repeatedly said: "Great, you two aren’t young anymore; it’s ti to settle down."
They didn’t stay long; the two of them soon excused themselves, as they had more things to handle and limited ti.
The elderly couple understood. They were happy enough that they hadn’t been forgotten and that the two had made a point to visit, but they couldn’t keep them any longer.
Uncle Zhang wanted to give them so of the food his grandson brought back from the South, but He Jinxuan said: "Uncle Zhang, rember my job? I frequently travel south, so keep it for yourselves."
Uncle Zhang slapped his forehead: "That’s true, then I won’t insist. Co by next ti, and we’ll have a drink together."
He Jinxuan agreed, and only then did they leave with Xinyan.
Of course, Xinyan didn’t forget the elderly man living near the warehouse whom she had been continuously aiding, but she hadn’t expected him to beco more hunched and less spirited than before.
He never expected to see Xinyan and He Jinxuan again; he stood there stunned for a while: "When did you co back?"
Xinyan smiled and replied: "Got off the train early today. How have you been?"
The old man’s eyes reddened: "Thanks to you, I’ve been fine."
After chatting for a while, Xinyan handed over the last roast duck and the last box of Beijing Eight Treasures from her bag: "Here are so treats from Beijing, I brought so for you to try."
The old man was a bit embarrassed: "I’ve been troubling you, I’m really at a loss for words."
Xinyan gently patted the old man’s hand and comforted: "Please don’t say that, we’re just doing what we can. I believe that one day, your wishes will co true."
Perhaps encouraged, the old man’s eyes beca teary: "You’re right. Hopefully, I’ll achieve my desires."
While the old man was talking with He Jinxuan, Xinyan discreetly took out a hundred yuan bill and tucked it under his pillow, then bid him farewell.
After leaving the old man’s house, He Jinxuan finally spoke: "I’ve gathered so information; we’ll go check it out later."
