Chapter 39
Your finger is bleeding. I happen to have a band-aid here. Stick it on now, and when you get home, rinse it with antiseptic.
Its fine, just a tiny scratch.
Only now did Xu Lin notice a very small cut caused by the fish gills.
Just put it on; I have several here.
Okay, thanks, Auntie.
Xu Lin took one and applied it to his finger, then waved and left.
After browsing the vegetable market for tens of minutes, he came out with a bunch of items. He once again felt the pressure of having low physical strength.
Right, he has no strength! Carrying this load home, his arms might fall off. There is no choice; he has to go to the street and hail a cab.
There was no online taxi booking service now; it would emerge a couple of years later and gradually spread. In this small city, it might take 45 years.
Can he jump in and reap some benefits now? Although he didnt travel back to the 80s or 90s, there are still some money-making opportunities available.
This was a good chance. Additionally, the Huang and Lan takeout businesses, although established, were just starting. Regarding investment matters, he didnt understand them.
Simple agency work, however, he can manage. Linshui City got agents in 2017, and nearby cities also recruited agents around 2016.
If he could secure an agency, it would be great. Forget about the general agency; he cant even think about it. It is already arranged, and he didnt have the financial strength to be an agent.
An agent also needed financial backing. It is 2013 now, and by 2016, when they start recruiting agents, if he has the financial capacity, he can give it a try.
However, a lot could change in three years. He cant predict his situation by then.
Thinking about ways to make money, he left the market and saw the same woman again, who also noticed him.
Young man, are you buying so much stuff?
Yeah, having a family gathering. I want to show off my cooking skills.
Not many guys cook now, and how many young girls can cook? Ive been married for 25 years, and my husband has never cooked for me once.
My dad doesnt cook either, and he cant make anything taste good. My mom wont let him cook.
Young man, where is your home? My daughter is coming to pick me up; I can give you a ride.
No, Ill just take a taxi back.
That wont do. You helped me catch the fish, and I havent thanked you yet.
It was just something I did casually. I live nearby.
Well, its on the way. Why waste money on a taxi?
Thank you then, Auntie. I live in Jinxiu Mansion.
Thats convenient; oh, here comes my daughter.
Following the kind aunts gaze into the distance, Xu Lin saw a familiar white Passat approaching.
A chill ran down his spine. Could this be happening every day by coincidence?
He glanced at the aunt who was smiling gently, finally realising where this familiar feeling came fromit was Teacher Sus real mother!
Unconsciously, Xu Lin found another relatively trouble-free way to make money. Suddenly, he felt that being a reborn person meant never starving, no matter what you did.
Are your parents locals?
Yeah, they are locals.
When did you and my daughter meet?
Last year, just when I started working, Teach. Qingwan needed to create advertising slogans and short videos for an event, and she found our company.
Where is your company located?
Just in the commercial district next to Tangli.
You have to commute back and forth.
Not too far, just a little over an hour.
Do you have a car?
Xu Lin heard this and knew it was the beginningone of the ultimate questions a mother-in-law has for her son-in-law.
No
Do you have your own house?
Yes.
The house belongs to your family.
Yes.
Hows your income now?
Around 4k per month. The average income in Linsui was about 3k, so claiming 4k wasnt an exaggeration.
Do you have any plans for the future?
Well, its just me in my family, and my parents have worked hard. I plan to work hard and hopefully buy my own house and get married.
Although it might sound like he was just appeasing his potential mother-in-law, this was indeed Xu Lins plan. He wanted to save money for his university education, for buying a house, and for getting married.
It might seem a bit lacklustre compared to other transmigrators who become bosses or wealthy individuals, but he preferred steady and gradual growth.
After listening, mother Su fell silent for a few seconds and then said, You are quite sincere. Youve been honest about everything. But you are younger than my daughter. Are you really confident in taking care of her, both in life and emotionally?
Do you want me to tell the truth?
You can say it.
To be honest, I think I can. Maybe Im not there yet with telling lies, but I want to become someone who can take care of her!
Xu Lin said it firmly, and mother Su took a deep breath.
Living a simple life is not bad, but young man, you have to continue to strive and prove it with practical actions.
Hearing the change in Mother Sus address, Xu Lin breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, he could relax and lean back in the chair.
