Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 834

Chapter 834: Chapter 707: Still Acting Like a Brother? No Different from a Younger Sibling!

After returning to the guesthouse, Jiao Jiao didn’t mention going out alone anymore. Instead, that uncle sent many local pastries and instant glutinous rice flour with lotus root flour to her and Yi Jiefang, inviting them to visit on their way back.

Immediately, the two of them took out a small portion for everyone to try the taste, exchanged a smile, and went with some classmates sending packages to the nearby post office.

Yi Jiefang was not short on money this time, not to mention Jiao Jiao, this golden baby. Passing by the department store, they let the classmates line up at the post office first, secretly enjoying themselves.

Buy anything they can—Happy Dumplings, candied pastries—as much as possible.

Jiao Jiao didn’t expect this young guy to be crazier than her; no wonder he and her husband are close buddies. They really hit it off! Finally, persuaded by her, Yi Jiefang reluctantly stopped, yet they still managed to pack a big parcel.

"Jiao Jiao, it’s such a pity you didn’t come with us yesterday. The crayfish here is really delicious. We’ll definitely buy some more on our way back."

Jiao Jiao nodded amusingly. Could she say she saw that no tickets were needed yesterday and bought a lot? The crayfish here is more abundant than in Hai City, likely due to the rich water resources.

Thinking about the food, Yi Jiefang shook his head and sighed, "It’s a pity it’s inconvenient with too many people. Yesterday I could smell the aroma of crab buns and hairy crabs, but couldn’t get a bite."

Jiao Jiao knew the hairy crabs he referred to were the local Da He crabs. She quickened her pace guiltily and advised, "When we’re on our way back, we’ll find an excuse to buy some to take home. I’m sure the teachers won’t hold back from taking things back."

"That’s all we can do. If Xiao Wu were here, he would surely find a way to let me have some good food."

Jiao Jiao teased, "Weren’t you going to sever ties with him? Why are you still missing your buddy?"

"Hmph." Yi Jiefang rolled his eyes upward, mentioning things better left unspoken! No wonder the wise sages said the world is difficult to nurture when it comes to petty men and women. Could he just leave her parcel behind and walk away?

Seeing his proud look made Jiao Jiao burst out laughing. Despite his constant casual, reckless demeanor and always wearing a mask with outsiders, he reveals his true self in front of trusted friends.

Calling him a brother? He’s no different from a younger brother!

"On the road, these teachers will still worry about unexpected incidents. Once at the unit, we’ll have a chance to go feast. My aunt should be in Lingnan this time, she will definitely prepare tickets for us. Then, with the sky high and birds flying, the sea wide and fish swimming—we can eat anything we want."

"Hahaha, sis, you really are brother’s true sister. Makes sense, this time we won’t return to Beijing until we’ve eaten enough!"

The two happily continued chatting as they headed towards the post office, with Jiao Jiao mischievously introducing various delicacies mentioned in books, making Yi Jiefang swallow several times.

Having money in life doesn’t mean happiness; it’s truly painful. Who would’ve thought tickets are the real deal!

Back on the journey, with previous contact, the students became increasingly familiar, intentionally avoiding sensitive topics, and laughter was constant on the road, with jokes aplenty.

Arriving at Lingnan City’s train station, right at the exit they saw people holding signs waiting for them.

Jiao Jiao deliberately took a look and found that they were there to pick up a group of them, and heard from them that they were staff from the provincial department power system.

Her major was Electromechanical Engineering and Applied Electronic Technology, abbreviated as Electromechanical Engineering Department. Before coming, they were only informed to study in Lingnan, without divulging any useful information.
