Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 221: Don’t You Dare Falsely Accuse Me

As I was about to leave, I overheard the sales clerk telling soone that there were fabric scraps in the warehouse that didn’t require tickets, so I went over, initially hoping to get so, but ended up being cold-shouldered.

It beca clear that you’d probably need connections to get them. I suddenly thought of the lady selling candy and turned to head in that direction.

The lady had just finished her work and clearly recognized Yu Xinyan: "Oh my, I thought you’d forgotten your own bag!"

Yu Xinyan walked over: "I’ve been busy lately and haven’t had a chance to co by. How’s your daughter-in-law doing recently?"

The lady laughed as soon as her daughter-in-law was ntioned: "She’s doing well, thank you so much. Those fruits you gave us were a lifesaver."

Yu Xinyan waved her hand with a smile: "You can’t say that. I used your candy tickets; we can only say it was mutually beneficial."

The lady laughed and took out the previous bag: "Here’s that bag. Keep it safe."

Yu Xinyan took it and put it in the bucket, whispering: "Hey, I heard the fabric sales lady over there say that there are so fabric scraps in the warehouse that don’t need tickets. Is there any way you could help buy so?"

The lady glanced at the fabric counter, lowered her voice and asked: "Did you ask her?"

Yu Xinyan nodded honestly.

A custor arrived at the counter, and she whispered to Yu Xinyan: "Go through the small back door to our backyard, find old Sister Cao in the warehouse, and tell her that Liang Runi sent you."

Yu Xinyan was delighted: "Thank you so much, Sister Liang. When my lons ripen next month, I’ll bring you so for your family to try."

Though it was just pleasantry, it made Liang Runi smile brightly: "Hurry up, while there’s not many people. If you’re late, the good ones will be gone."

Yu Xinyan thanked her, left the supply and marketing cooperative, and headed to the backyard. It’s true what they say, having connections makes things easier. Just by ntioning Liang Runi’s na, old Sister Cao took her to the spot.

Sister Cao happened to be free and chatted with her for a bit, and Yu Xinyan must have struck a chord with her: "Pick a few more pieces. These scraps have been accumulating for over half a year, and you won’t likely see this opportunity again until the end of the year."

Though they were fabric scraps, most were about half a foot to a foot long. Since she had money, she picked quite a few, counted and paid for them at the front, just about to leave.

She ran into the fabric sales clerk at the front counter, who imdiately recognized Yu Xinyan: "What are you doing here? Do you belong in this place?"

Sister Cao, who was about to organize the warehouse, frowned: "Xiao Xu, she’s Liang Runi’s relative, and we know her. She ca to see ."

Sister Cao’s words made Xiao Xu’s face change imdiately: "Oh, so you’re Sister Liang’s relative. I’m really sorry, this is a restricted area in the warehouse, and I’m just a bit nervous about soone causing trouble."

No one there would believe that, Sister Cao waved off Yu Xinyan: "Don’t you have things to do? Go and take care of them."

Yu Xinyan glanced at the sales lady nad Xiao Xu, nodded to Sister Cao, and turned to leave. In every era and place, there’s no shortage of those who bully based on connections and judge others harshly. If it weren’t for not wanting to trouble Liang Runi and Sister Cao, she wouldn’t even spare her a glance.

Seeing there was nothing more to buy, she was about to head back when she heard a commotion near the state-run restaurant.

Since it was on the way back to the chanical Factory, Yu Xinyan headed that way with the crowd. As she got closer, she heard soone wailing: "Oh, why is my life so hard? My son married a wife who can’t lay eggs and is totally controlled by her. Now they don’t even care about his only nephew; it’s just a sin."

Upon hearing this, without even looking, it was clear what was going on. In the previous life, Manager Lu was tornted by his mother and nephew, all because he married the woman he loved. His mother utterly disapproved of her, especially since Manager Lu had three daughters in a row after marriage. Later, due to his wife’s health, they didn’t have more children.

Now, the old lady found a reason to accuse his wife of ending the family line, demanding a divorce between her second son and daughter-in-law. Fortunately, Manager Lu was easy-going on most matters, except this one, and he wouldn’t let it affect his wife and daughters.

This made the old lady dislike her second son’s wife even more, thinking of ways to demand money and things from her second son to support the eldest son’s family. Unfortunately, the only grandson was a good-for-nothing.

Yu Xinyan repeatedly heard stories about Manager Lu’s family in her past life, so she wasn’t interested in the drama. As she was about to pass by, soone shoved her from the side, catching her off-guard, and she almost fell.

Just then, a woman’s voice said: "Quick, help her up."

The sound made Yu Xinyan instantly alert. Just as she was about to drop the bucket and save herself, a pair of hands steadied her from behind: "Are you alright?"

Yu Xinyan steadied herself and didn’t imdiately respond, because she recognized who had caught her.

She looked at the woman who shoved her – a resident of the family compound she knew but had no interactions with. As for the man whose hand hadn’t withdrawn on the other side, everything was clear. If the setting weren’t inappropriate, she’d have kicked them to death.

However, since they dared to plot against her, they can’t bla her for striking hard. She handed the bucket directly to He Jinxuan: "Brother He, thank you, please hold this for ."

As she passed the bucket, she pushed He Jinxuan forward: "Wait for ahead."

By then, she already clutched sothing in her hand. She grabbed the woman with one hand and with the other, pinched sothing into her collar: "Why did you push ?"

The woman was already guilty and hadn’t noticed Yu Xinyan’s actions: "Don’t accuse ; I didn’t push you."

Now that it was done, Yu Xinyan didn’t want to argue further. A dispute wouldn’t serve her, and she had no interest in becoming a spectacle. She asked with an amused tone: "Didn’t you?"

The woman broke away from Yu Xinyan, sowhat hurriedly: "Of course not. Don’t falsely accuse ."

Yu Xinyan released her: "You know in your heart if you did."

She turned to the man who had already walked away, moving quickly. In her past life, Yu Xinyan had been sched against; in this life, she loathed anyone intending to plot against her. Seemingly casually fixing her hair, she actually brushed so powder onto the man’s body.

Honestly, her action was only noticed by the ever-attentive He Jinxuan, as everything was done naturally. Yet he asked nothing, only saying: "Are you done? Want to head back together?"
