1970s: Transmigrated into a cannon fodder female supporting character in a lucky koi novel!

Lu Zechuan wrapped his arm around Wen Li's waist with his uninjured hand, looked up and met her worried eyes. Smelling her familiar fragrance, the weariness in his eyes gradually faded.

"Stop frowning, or you'll look like a little old lady!"

Seeing him still being sarcastic at a time like this, Wen Li said irritably, "If I'm an old lady, then you're an old man!"

"Yes, I'm an old man, so we're a match made in heaven!"

"How can you be so shameless?"

Lu Zechuan smiled smugly. "If I were a little more shy, you'd probably be snatched away by someone else!"

Wen Li was dazzled by his smile. She raised her hand to touch her slightly hot nose, and then ruthlessly pushed away his excessively handsome face. If this continued, she was really worried that she wouldn't be able to resist.

"Go back and rest!"

Lu Zechuan looked at Wen Li's flushed face and smiled silently.

"Yes, sir!"

After Lu Zechuan returned, Wen Li took out an old hen from her spatial storage and stewed it, adding a little spiritual spring water to it.

Although no one knows what Lu Zechuan has gone through in the past two days, the bloodshot eyes and the cuts on his body from tree branches are enough to show that it took a lot of effort to catch those human traffickers.

We need to give him some extra nutrition.

Lu Zechuan hadn't slept for two days and two nights. When he got back to his room, he fell asleep as soon as his head hit the door. He didn't wake up until Wen Li knocked on the door.

As soon as the door opened, I saw Wen Li holding a bowl of golden chicken soup, with goji berries and red dates floating in it.

"Have some soup first, then you can eat dinner!"

Lu Zechuan felt a mix of emotions. Since his mother's death, he felt as if he had never felt this warmth of being cared for again.

Although his grandfather treated him very well, his grandfather was a rough and uncultured man who thought that raising children was just about feeding and clothing them. He rarely paid attention to the fact that the young boy actually longed for love and care from his family.

He didn't understand why his nominal father hated him so much before, but as he grew up, he realized that even family members need to be connected by fate. Without fate, even blood relatives can only look at each other with disgust.

Seeing that Lu Zechuan had finished the chicken soup, Wen Li went back inside and cooked two light side dishes.

After finishing her meal, Wen Li saw that Lu Zechuan was in good condition and did not have a fever, so she went back to her room to rest.

She has to go to the black market tomorrow. She hasn't been delivering goods for a while, and Gu Huai will probably get anxious if she doesn't go soon.

The next day, Wen Li went to check on Lu Zechuan first. Seeing that he was alright, she went to the brigade leader to ask for leave for him. Only after asking for leave did she ride her bicycle to the commune.

In addition to grapes, she also sent some watermelons and longans, as well as a batch of vegetables.

Vegetables aren't worth much now, but all the vegetables she delivered were fresh and crisp, so Gu Huai wasn't worried about selling them.

After putting the things away, she took out a basket of cherries. She had seen Gu Huai enjoy eating cherries last time. Although she couldn't sell them in large quantities now that it was the season, giving some to Gu Huai wouldn't make much difference.

When the third brother saw Wen Li at the black market, he almost burst into tears of joy.

"Comrade Zhang, you've finally arrived! My eldest son has been missing you!"

Seeing the third brother's exaggerated expression, Wen Li couldn't help but chuckle. "You're just thinking about my goods, aren't you!"

"Hey~ Look at what you're saying, aren't they all the same!"

Upon arriving at Gu Huai's courtyard, Wen Li entered, and Gu Huai immediately sat up.

"If you hadn't come soon, I was starting to think our business was going to fall through!"

"What, is there a food shortage right now?"

Gu Huai certainly didn't lack grain, but he lacked high-quality grain, and fruit was even scarcer. Wen Li hadn't come for a month, so he had lost nearly a thousand yuan this month.

"That's not quite it, but the shortage of fine food is real!"

"I've brought over 1,000 jin of watermelons and 500 jin of longans this time!"

Wen Li has nearly 20,000 jin of watermelons in her space, and there's a lot of them piling up there. She's in a hurry to deal with them, so she's sending more over.

Also, with the hot weather now, watermelons are selling very well.

"No problem, watermelons are in high demand and short supply right now, your delivery is perfectly timed!"

"That's good. I was worried you wouldn't be able to eat!"

"Don't worry about sales. I can eat even two thousand catties more if you send over!"

Wen Li raised an eyebrow: "What good thing has happened lately? You're so arrogant!"

"The black market in the city is also eyeing your shipment!"

Gu Huai didn't hide anything. Since Wen Li chose to cooperate with him and didn't go to anyone else, it proved that the source of this batch of goods was not known to outsiders. In that case, he would help deal with those who were trying to find out, and make a profit along the way. Neither of them would lose out.

Sure enough, Wen Li didn't show any displeasure after he finished speaking.

Wen Li really didn't plan to go to the city to find someone to cooperate with. She was cooperating with Gu Huai now because she trusted Gu Huai's character.

After all, when looking for new partners, who knows if you might encounter someone who tries to steal your business?

Or perhaps those people are trying to find out who their suppliers are!

Gu Huai is a very sensible person. He never inquires about the origin of the goods or tries to find out anything behind their backs. The two of them work together very well.

She wasn't worried that Gu Huai would stab her in the back; they trusted each other completely.

"How much stock do you need next time?"

Seeing how much Wen Li trusted him, Gu Huai felt much more at ease. "Increase the weight of each type by 500 jin?"

"No problem, but just so you know, I don't like trouble!"

Since Gu Huai is going to cooperate with the black market in the city, the risks are much higher. Wen Li doesn't want to get involved, but she is confident that even if she does, she can get out unscathed.

It will be a bit troublesome, and she dislikes trouble the most.

Her main goal now is to weaken Jiang Yue'er's strength and prevent her from growing stronger.

Everything else is secondary.

"I understand. I can assure you that if anything happens, you won't be implicated. Right now, the only people around me who know your true identity are Scarface and me. Scarface won't lie!"

Having received the assurance, Wen Li didn't say anything more. She chatted with Gu Huai for a while, then left with her full basket on her back.

She had originally planned to buy some malted milk powder and snacks, but now Gu Huaiquan had prepared everything for her, so she didn't need to go to the supply and marketing cooperative anymore.

Life is getting better and better!

After leaving the black market, Wen Li saw Jiang Laosan and Jiang Yue'er sneaking into the black market.

Since the incident where he used a snake to scare people, Jiang Laosan has stopped sending ginseng to Wen Li. It seems they won't be cooperating with him anymore.

Wen Li wasn't annoyed, since she already had plenty of ginseng in her space, enough for her needs.

The Jiang family is currently short of money, so she shouldn't be the one in a hurry.

On the way, Wenli took out two more large watermelons and put them in her basket. She sent one to the brigade leader's house and took the other back for her friends to eat.

When Wen Li arrived at the brigade leader's house, she saw that the brigade leader was home, so she asked him a question.

"Uncle Captain, have the quotas for the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University been released yet?"

The captain frowned deeply, sighed, and said, "Soon!"
