Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

The next day, Gu Lingling didn't go out. All morning, she was still thinking about that dream she had last night.

Oh my god, it was so embarrassing!

"What nonsense are you thinking about?" Old Mrs. Gu angrily placed a basket of vegetables in front of Gu Lingling, "Pick these vegetables."

As for pickling the vegetables, even though Liu Yating invited Gu Lingling to pickle them yesterday, Old Mrs. Gu wasn't that open-hearted. These vegetables needed to last all winter, and letting Gu Lingling pickle them?

This girl only learned a few tricks from her grandmother; let's not ruin her vegetables.

It's just an excuse to sneak out,

Who knows when she got so close to the people in the army, shameless.

Today, she definitely wouldn't let this girl go out.

"Grandma, I'm off to the team headquarters." Gu Juan, all dressed up, smiled and headed out, not forgetting to flaunt a proud look at Gu Lingling, who was sitting under the eaves picking vegetables, as she left.

So proud like a Flower Peacock.

"Come back early for lunch, grandma will cook something delicious for you." Old Mrs. Gu smiled like a blooming flower, "My Juanzi is getting prettier by the day."

Gu Lingling bowed her head to hide her mischievous smile.

Gu Juan's outfit was simply ridiculous, as the saying goes, "green and blue, even a dog would disdain," yet she was wearing a green military uniform sent back by Gu Haojun with a pair of blue floral pants.

Uh, those pants were said to be the latest trend in the city.

Alright, Gu Lingling admitted, the green military uniform was also the hottest fashion; if anyone could wear a green military uniform from the army, it would be envied by everyone.

But pairing these two trendy pieces together, well haha!

As for Gu Juan, she wasn't going to the team headquarters; she was clearly heading to the educated youth point.

Gu Lingling paid no attention to this proud Flower Peacock, focusing on picking vegetables at home. She was waiting, waiting for Wang Meili to make a move.

If nothing unexpected happened, it would be in a day or two.

"Don't be lazy, there's a lot of work to do today." Thinking of the things Wang Meili instructed her to do in the morning, Old Mrs. Gu snorted, "Lazy all day long, relying on me for everything."

Old Mrs. Gu grumbled while hammering her waist.

"Grandma, why don't you let Auntie come back?" Gu Lingling said with a smile, "Or ask Gu Juan to help out."

"When I ask you to do something, you always make excuses. They are busy with their own things." Old Mrs. Gu glared at Gu Lingling angrily, turned around, and went inside to lie on the kang.

The meat curing would wait until the village distributed meat, and the pickles... well, she had to wait for Gu Lingling to finish picking, washing, and drying the vegetables before then.

She might as well take a nice nap now since she had business to attend to in the evening.

Gu Lingling pursed her lips; she didn't care about the willing victim and willing perpetrator relationship between Old Mrs. Gu and Wang Meili.

Just waiting until Old Mrs. Gu loses her worth, she would just sit back and watch the show.

It's not that Gu Lingling is soft-hearted, but for someone like Old Mrs. Gu, who is stubborn and rigidly adheres to her principles, she simply couldn't be bothered to deal with her.

As the saying goes, an evil person will have someone evil to torment her; why bother to lift a finger?

Soon, the sound of Old Mrs. Gu snoring echoed from the main house.

Gu Lingling stood up, stretched her neck, and stopped picking vegetables, heading into Old Sir Gu's side room instead.

Although there was sunshine outside, it was already late autumn, and she wouldn't be foolish enough to stay under the eaves picking vegetables.

"Grandpa, are you playing with the sandbox again?" Gu Lingling said with a smile.

Ever since he got that sandbox, Old Sir Gu had taken a liking to it.

"I saw those two whispering together this morning, be careful these days." Old Sir Gu said.

"Okay." Gu Lingling nodded.
