I became the Counterpart of the Winner in a Period Novel

Chapter 104: Chapter 101: The Preciousness of Apples

The next morning, while eating steamed buns, steamed bread, and porridge, Jiang Mingyue and her third sister prepared everything together. After they finished, she was about to take a bun and go inside the room, intending to tidy up before cycling into the city, but unexpectedly someone called out to her.

Ever since Yan Jinzhi could enter and leave her space, he was almost always inside it. Whenever something came up, he only had to speak, and she could hear him from her side.

Like now, he called her into the space.

Alright! Maybe knowing she was going into the city, he wanted her to bring something for him.

Jiang Mingyue entered in a second, but in the next second, she was pulled out of the space by a large hand.

"Huh?"

She then heard the owner of the large hand laugh and say, "We’re here!"

Here? The man was being mysterious. Did she need to report her arrival when she entered her own space? But in the next second, Jiang Mingyue was stunned.

She really arrived, but not anywhere in Qingshan Village. Instead, she was at her courtyard outside Nanxi City.

"Yan Jinzhi, what’s this?"

"I went into the city with Qiao Mingtang before dawn."

Jiang Mingyue instantly understood. Since they shared a space, assuming Qingshan Village is location A, as long as one of them went to location B, they could immediately pull the other out of the space to location B, and naturally, the person in location A could also pull the person in location B back to location A.

While happy, Jiang Mingyue also worried about her intelligence. She seemed not to have thought of this point; after all, she didn’t have the opportunity to experiment in her past life.

Jiang Mingyue thought of another question: "If I finish my business later and want to return to Qingshan Village, can I just enter the space and get back?"

Yan Jinzhi: "... Why don’t you try now."

Jiang Mingyue immediately put it into practice, but reality was harsh.

Unwilling to give up, Jiang Mingyue tried several times but not once succeeded.

Frustrating!

"Alright, the glass jars you wanted are all here, a total of five thousand."

Jiang Mingyue thought her fruits couldn’t fill five thousand bottles, but she quickly realized there would be a next batch, so she wasn’t worried anymore.

"No, Yan Jinzhi, I thought of a question. Since you can go in and out of my space, why can’t you put the glass bottles into my space yourself?"

Yan Jinzhi laughed angrily: This girl is a bit off her game intelligence-wise in this lifetime!

"Are you asking me to carry them in box by box?"

Jiang Mingyue thought and immediately realized the issue, her rare blush blooming at her ears.

Alright, the person doesn’t have spiritual power.

Jiang Mingyue stopped wasting words, swept with her spiritual power, and the glass jars were placed in the space warehouse. Yan Jinzhi also thoughtfully helped buy many jars and even various sizes of basins, almost everything she might need, he had thoughtfully prepared.

Jiang Mingyue: "..." She’s increasingly finding Xiao Yanzi especially nice.

"Yan Jinzhi, you’re so good!"

Then just wait for me.

"Hey! Where’s your sweetheart? It would be nice if they came along, I could even drink a cup of wedding wine."

One second a heart full of deer-like excitement, the next as if plunged into an icy cellar.

Yan Jinzhi: How can you say that with such a calm expression? Do you not have even a tiny thought toward me?

"I’m afraid to disappoint you; my sweetheart lost their memory."

"Amnesia? So they don’t remember you? Poor thing! But, buddy, don’t lose hope. Spend more time with them, do all the things you once did together over again, maybe at some moment they’ll remember!"

Yan Jinzhi looked at Jiang Mingyue with a complex gaze: "I think so too."

"Glad you can take it positively. Seems like I don’t need to console you. Alright, I’m off to sell grains, you stay under the eaves."

Jiang Mingyue didn’t want to trouble anyone and planned to handle it all at once.

Rice, flour, cornmeal, potatoes, sweet potatoes, braised chicken bits, and live chickens and rabbits, she needed to tie up the legs of the live ones with straw to sell them properly.

"Alright, I need to go somewhere, you handle your business. By the way, you have to take me back with you later."

"I’ve finished my business, I’ll go with you to the black market."

Jiang Mingyue looked the gentleman up and down: "I say, Xiao Yanzi, did you forget the outfit you’re wearing? Do you want someone to report you?"

Yan Jinzhi again suspected the girl’s intelligence was affected by time travel.

"If I enter the space, won’t I just follow you?"

Jiang Mingyue: She made a foolish mistake.

"Alright, alright, get in then."

Fortunately, this person was thorough and prepared a bicycle in the room.

She felt once again that Xiao Yanzi was especially good!

It’s just such a pity!

Entering the black market, Jiang Mingyue noticed someone patrolling around, but fortunately, her basket was in the space, so she just looked like a young cyclist out for a leisurely ride.

Since she wasn’t violating any rules, those people didn’t pay attention to her. Jiang Mingyue skillfully turned into that small courtyard, taking out the basket before entering.

Upon seeing her, Ao Ao immediately approached her like it saw a family member: "Ao Ao..."

Jiang Mingyue also nuzzled it for a moment, and conveniently took a live chicken from the basket for it to snatch, instantly diverting its affection.

Jiang Mingyue felt a bit hurt: Ao Ao’s love for her couldn’t withstand temptation.

"Mr. Jiang, you’re here?" Du Shouqiang, returning from outside, saw Jiang Mingyue had arrived, akin to seeing family from his hometown.

"Da Qiang, I brought you a gift." Jiang Mingyue fished around and produced a large apple.

Du Shouqiang was overjoyed; just one look at the apple showed it wasn’t ordinary, possibly selected after scouring a Huaguo Mountain, making him feel thoroughly content.

Mr. Jiang’s affection seemed like rivers that flowed without end.

Thinking that with such a heavy gift from Mr. Jiang, he should reciprocate one as well.

Rummaging through his stash, he suddenly felt that the batch of defective goods he got from the textile mill a few days ago was most suitable for Mr. Jiang.

Though defective goods sounded inferior, in reality, they merely had minor flaws in the whole bolt of fabric that didn’t meet the buyer’s standards. Usually, people couldn’t even buy such defective goods; he was lucky to get them. Originally thinking to make some profit, he now only wished to give them to Mr. Jiang; earning money wasn’t as important as Mr. Jiang.

"Mr. Jiang, I also have a gift for you. Wait, I’ll go call a few brothers to help move the fabric to your courtyard. Girls all love being beautiful, you won’t run out of clothes to wear later."

Fabric huh? Great! Bring it back for the third sister to practice her skills.

Over here, Pan Zhoucong was in the main hall discussing matters with someone. Upon hearing Jiang Mingyue’s voice, he quickly wrapped up the negotiation, leaving his subordinates to finish, and hurried out to greet his benefactor.

"Benefactor, you finally came. I have a gift for you."

Then Jiang Mingyue saw a row of watches.

"Ahem... Brother Pan, don’t you know that gifts like watches shouldn’t be given lightly?"

"Huh? But I thought you’d like them. My friend recently had a batch of goods, and I heard you have many family members, so I kept one of each style for you. Don’t you like them?"

Oh, that’s how it is!

"I really like it! Thank you, Brother Pan. Then I’ll accept them." Not accepting such gifts would be imprudent.

Jiang Mingyue quickly stashed them in the basket.

"Then I also have a gift for Brother Pan," Jiang Mingyue rummaged around and produced two large strawberries.
