No matter what Lin Weijun said, it was useless. He was just a son.

Fortunately, Lin Weijun now works in the provincial capital, which is far from home, so Lin Xiangyang's situation doesn't affect him for the time being. However, Lin Xiangyang is currently a ticking time bomb for Lin Weijun.

If someone really dislikes Lin Weijun and uses this incident to report him, then although he won't lose his secure job, he certainly won't be able to achieve anything significant.

Lin Weijun was provided with housing by his workplace, so seeing that it was getting late, the three of them chatted for a while after dinner and then left.

Gu Jingyan was in the same boat; he still had to go to school, and if he stayed any later, he wouldn't even be able to catch the bus.

"I'll head to school after I lock the door tonight. Here's some money and coupons for you. There's food in the kitchen. If you need more, go to the commune to buy some. There are also some stalls starting to appear around here, so you can go and have a look around."

"Okay, I understand. You should hurry up and go, or you'll miss your train."

Lin Yue'e took the child and escorted him to the door.

Lin Yue'e smiled as she closed the door. She still preferred the feeling of just the two of them at home. When Gu Jingyan was around, she couldn't just freely enter the spatial dimension.

I took the baby into the room and washed his bottom. I put him on the bed and watched him "ah ah..." talking to himself. It was quite heartwarming.

After changing him into a comfortable little outfit, I carried him to the livestock farm.

The three hens I stole from the Lin family have grown quite fat since they were put into the space, eating only food produced by the space. Their feathers are glossy and they have laid several eggs.

Lin Yue'e waved her hand, transferring all the eggs to the warehouse. These eggs could be taken out of the space.

The day after moving to the city, Lin Yue'e went out early in the morning. She wanted to see if the city had relaxed its restrictions and if she could openly set up a stall without worrying about being arrested again.

"Oh, you live here, are you new here?"

Lin Yue'e had just come out with her child in her arms and was about to lock the door when she heard someone talking to her.

She turned around and saw a woman about her age. She had a round face and was smiling and greeting her.

"Hello, I just moved here yesterday. My surname is Lin, and my given name is Yue'e. Do you live here too, ma'am?"

Lin Yue'e hadn't noticed which way the other person had come from.

"I live next door to you. My surname is Huang, and my name is Huang Wenjuan. I think you are younger than me, so you can just call me Sister Huang." Huang Wenjuan was quite friendly.

"Really? Then I'll call you Sister Huang from now on. Are you going shopping?"

"Yes, I'm going to take a walk around town. Let me tell you, you're lucky to be here. Before, everyone had to go to the commune, which is quite far from here, to buy things. Now, just turn the corner, there's a lot of people setting up stalls in Lane 6, which is very close to the primary school. Things are cheaper there than in the commune, and you don't need ration coupons. What about you? Where are you going?"

Huang Wenjuan is quite talkative. She has a cheerful and outgoing personality.

"Same here. I just moved here yesterday. I don't know anything about the outside world. I'm just wandering around to get a feel for the situation here."

So Lin Yue'e followed Huang Wenjuan to Lane No. 6. It was much more lively than where they had been before, in front of the hospital.

Lin Yue'e saw that there were quite a few vegetable vendors, and the variety was more than in their village.

Previously, the village only had cabbage, radish, and potatoes, but here it's different. Neatly arranged are vibrant green spinach and celery, cucumbers with their blossoms and thorns, and bright red tomatoes, along with green peppers, eggplants, cabbages, tofu, and bean sprouts. Fresh pork hangs on the meat stall, and baskets are piled high with eggs.

"Wow, there's a lot of different kinds of vegetables here, Sister Huang. I've never seen so many kinds when I was in the village before." Lin Yue'e followed behind Sister Huang. She wanted to buy some, but she was holding a baby in her arms. So she could only buy two or three of each kind for now.

"Yes, I saw on the news that some places are starting to grow vegetables, using greenhouses or something, so they can have vegetables even in winter. I wonder when we'll have that here."

Sister Huang bought the cheapest items; these days, everyone only needs enough groceries for two days. There's no place to store extra. No one has a refrigerator.

"Selling rabbits, freshly caught wild rabbits, alive. Raise them a bit, and they'll be fat enough to eat later. Only two cents each."

Hearing that someone was actually selling wild rabbits, Lin Yue'e immediately went over. Huang Wenjuan followed behind her.

The two of them walked up to the stall, where the rabbits the vendor had said were two cents each, but they were only the size of a palm. Two tiny gray rabbits.

It was probably caught along with the mother rabbit. As for the mother rabbit, there was a rabbit pelt nearby, which has likely already been sold.

"Oh dear, it's so tiny, and you're asking for two cents? You'll have to feed it when you get home, no thanks."

People nearby heard what the stall owner said, came over to take a look, shook their heads, and left.

Lin Yue'e was very interested. She had a livestock farm with a spatial dimension. If she bought it and put it in, wouldn't it produce many offspring in the future?

"Boss, are these a male and a female?" Lin Yue'e squatted down in front of the stall.

"Hey girl, this thing needs to be fed. It eats grass and grains. Why did you buy it?"

Huang Wenjuan frowned as she tried to persuade Lin Yue'e.

At most, people buy these toy dolls; who would actually raise them?

"They're a male and a female, girl. Look how happy these rabbits are. We just caught them yesterday. They've probably eaten them. They're so small, they can't eat much. A little grass and some vegetable leaves will do them justice."

The uncle selling rabbits immediately started showering people with sweet words the moment he saw someone wanted one.

"Hey, that sounds nice, but we live in the city. Where are we going to get grass, let alone vegetable leaves? We're feeding them to animals that people don't eat."

"Well, my sister's right. Why don't you sell me this rabbit for a lower price? I'll buy it to play with my kids. I guess it'll be fine in a couple of days."

Lin Yue'e was holding her son, but Gu An was only a month old and had no interest in seeing rabbits. She was just trying to negotiate a lower price.

"Alright, I'll give you a discount, three cents, you can take both of them."

The stall owner hadn't expected to make any money from those two little rabbits.

He would exchange the item for some money if someone wanted it, and if no one wanted it, he would take it back for his children to play with.

"You really want to buy this thing?"

Huang Wenjuan now thought that the newcomer was probably a spendthrift woman.

Clearly, buying this rabbit is pointless; it's impossible to eat or keep alive. Isn't this just a waste of money?

"Yeah, I'll buy it and play with it."

Lin Yue'e, steeling herself, felt like she'd been treated like a fool by this Sister Huang for buying those two rabbits. She immediately turned to the stall owner and said:

"Forget the three cents, just give me the two cents. Look around this market, who would buy this stuff?"

Lin Yue'e didn't mind spending the money, but every penny saved was a penny earned.

At that time, one cent could buy five boxes of matches.
