She Lives Well with the Shopping App in the 80s

Zhao Xinxin really doesn't like Wang Jianguo, and might even be holding back from saying it.

Now hearing him say this, she relaxed.

"Tomorrow, the first day of the Lunar New Year, I'll take you to the town for a walk. Every year during the New Year, my Third Brother takes his sister-in-law to the town for a stroll before returning."

Her sister-in-law doesn't mind they are from the countryside.

"Sure, I'll experience the New Year atmosphere in the south."

Yangyang watched his mom and dad talk, ignoring him, and called out, "Dad, Dad..."

Normally, Wang Jianguo is busy with work, unlike Zhao Xinxin who spends almost twenty hours a day with him.

"Is Grandma's place fun?"

Yangyang doesn't know what's fun and what's not.

"Many, many..."

The child is still young, and his words aren't very clear.

"You shouldn't tease him."

Wang Jianguo picked up Yangyang and strolled around with Zhao Xinxin.

Many people saw them and greeted them.

The village aunties, seeing Wang Jianguo, thought he was much better than Zhao Xinxin's previous partner?

So tall, and their child is already so grown up.

"Didn't the Chen Family say before that Little Sister Zhao couldn't have children? Look at that child, he resembles Little Sister Zhao so much."

"This woman can have children with another man; what does this mean? It means the previous man was the one who couldn't have kids."

"But in the Old Chen Family, the new wife got pregnant not long after marrying over, and her child is older than Little Sister Zhao's."

"Who knows, maybe this current wife of his cheated and got pregnant."

Other aunties were suddenly shocked when they heard this sister-in-law speak.

This person now works at the food factory, is diligent, but is particularly gossipy.

Previously not working at the factory, she knew almost all the gossip in the brigade.

"I'm not wrong, the woman the Old Chen Family married later was previously a widow, living well, and without a man's help, I don't believe it."

"Really?"

They were instantly shocked by this news.

Rumors often change as they spread.

"Before, I heard my dad say that a lot of medicinal herbs were planted in the fields, and it seems like they've been sold."

Medicinal herbs?

They're growing and selling medicinal herbs?

"How long has it been since I've returned? The villagers in the brigade have started building brick houses. Before, only a few houses in our brigade were brick houses."

Zhao Xinxin was genuinely surprised to see several families had built brick houses.

It showed that life had really improved.

"Now with the reforms and opening-up, you can earn money with your hands." Wang Jianguo didn't know what the brigade was like before, but seeing his wife's shocked expression, it seemed there had been significant changes from the past.

"Yes..."

Zhao Xinxin took Wang Jianguo and their son to see the river and the mountains.

"My Third Brother and Second Brother would go into the mountains to catch wild game. Afraid of being scolded if the adults found out, they would roast the meat in the mountain, and my Second Brother would secretly bring me a drumstick or a wing."

Her family, after her mother gave birth to her, couldn't do heavy work anymore.

Relying on her dad and others, it was impossible to eat enough.

Wang Jianguo, seeing his wife reminiscing about her childhood, recalled that at that time they were in the city, with just him and his sister, and his parents both working, earning a decent monthly salary with lots of ration tickets, so they never went hungry.

But in the countryside, it was different, worried about not having enough to eat, right?

"Good days will come slowly."

Zhao Xinxin nodded, "Yes, life will get better and better."
