Xuantian returned the bicycle and walked back. He came home holding a bag that was bulging with good stuff.

When entering the gate of the compound, the gatekeeper Yan Fugui greeted him warmly. When he saw Xuantian holding a bag of things, his eyes lit up, but he still expressed his concern.

"Comrade Xuantian, how was your first job today? What was it?"

"It's OK. You know I'm from the countryside and I don't know anything about those technologies, so I asked my boss to transfer me to the purchasing department. Now I think this job is suitable for me."

"Well, this job is indeed suitable for you. People in the countryside basically have some connections, and purchasing is easier. It's not like the jobs of your first and second uncles, which require a certain foundation. It's even harder to get promoted without knowledge. It's better to change."

"Well, Third Uncle, I'm going to go back first. I haven't eaten anything for lunch today, so I have to cook first. You can have a cigarette."

"Okay, you go back and cook first." Yan Fugui took the cigarette and put it to his ear, saying with a smile.

Xuantian walked in the courtyard. Some people saw him as a stranger, while some people looked at him with gratitude. These people were the elders of the children last night. It was a dream they could not believe that their poor families could eat a little meat! But this newcomer gave their children rice and a few pieces of meat. Although it was not much, they still had to be grateful. They were not ungrateful people like the Jia family. They just lived in this courtyard full of calculations and had to not trust people easily!

As for those neighbors who took the initiative to show goodwill, as long as they were not the five families of Jia Yi, He Long, Liu, etc., he was still willing to make friends. There was no need to offend everyone in the compound. After all, this was a society based on personal relationships. Besides, he would have to live in this courtyard for a long time and could not allow himself and other neighbors to get into too much trouble.

Xuantian smiled and nodded at them, indicating that he understood, but he did not talk to them, nor did he have much contact with them. After all, Xuantian had just met them and did not even know each other. They knew Xuantian's name and even his personality, but Xuantian did not know their names and personalities. It would take a long time of contact to determine their character before he could confirm whether they could become close friends.

When passing the middle courtyard, a plump, charming and beautiful young woman was washing clothes slowly and steadily, and her eyes would look towards the front yard from time to time, as if she was waiting for someone to come back.

Qin Huairu saw Xuantian's handsome figure walking into the central courtyard, and her eyes followed Xuantian's figure. When he came to her, she smiled warmly and said.

"Comrade Xuantian, you're back. How was your first day at work?"

"It's OK," Xuantian turned his head and glanced at Qin Huairu indifferently, and answered indifferently. Without waiting for Qin Huairu to speak again, he continued to walk towards the backyard, leaving Qin Huairu to truly think about life. She thought she was beautiful and unique in this courtyard. She took the initiative to talk to him, but he didn't want to pay attention to her and looked like he didn't want to approach her. What did this mean?

To Xuantian, who has foresight, Qin Huairu may look okay, but he doesn't like her very much, especially since he came from the future. The slim S-shaped figure is his favorite, and he doesn't like fat girls like Qin Huairu. This is the most popular figure in this era, but it is not Xuantian's favorite.

The most important thing is that Qin Huairu is a huge pit. What she loves most are herself and her children. Everything else is fleeting. She is either sucked dry or scolded. Moreover, once the Jia family mother and son find out that she has any intimate contact with Qin Huairu, she will be in endless trouble. She will also be targeted by Sha Zhu and Yi Zhonghai. Although she is not afraid, she should not provoke trouble easily if she can avoid it.

Xuantian left, but Qin Huairu did not forget her mission. If one plan failed, she would try another one. She caught up with Xuantian and said.

"Comrade Xuantian, you are all alone and no one is there to wash your dirty clothes for you. How about I help you wash them? I am also washing clothes anyway, so it doesn't matter if I wash a few more pieces."

"No need, I can wash my clothes myself. Besides, I'm still a married man. How can I ask you, a married woman, to wash my clothes? This will cause people to gossip. And I have to get married in the future!" Xuantian glanced at Qin Huairu and said expressionlessly.

"No, you see, I usually help Shazhu wash clothes, and no one says anything about him! I treat him as my brother, and so do you. It's normal for me to help my brother wash clothes, and no one will gossip about it."

"Oh? Really no one is gossiping about Sha Zhu? Then why do I always hear people saying that it's because of you that you helped a grown man wash clothes, and that Sha Zhu's reputation has been ruined, and now he's over 20 and still can't find a wife? Do you think they're right?"

"That's not true. Shazhu's blind date failed because he was too picky and didn't like the girl. That's why he didn't get married." Qin Huairu hurriedly explained.

"Is it true that everyone knows this? It's none of my business what you think. I have hands and feet and can wash my own clothes. You don't have to do it for me."

"Well, if you don't want to wash your clothes yourself, then you must find me. You can wash and cook. Don't be polite to me. Then I'll go wash the clothes first."

"Well, go ahead and do your work. I'm going home."

Xuantian left, and Qin Huairu also left. One had a relaxed look on her face, while the other's face changed from a smile to a ferocious one. Their facial expressions were opposite, and their directions were also opposite.

Qin Huairu had never been treated so coldly before. Ever since she married into the Jia family, her beauty had always been a topic of discussion. What man would not look twice at her? Now this new guy actually rejected her so repeatedly. Was he insulting her, Qin Huairu?

Compared to those who deliberately want to get close to her, Qin Huairu is disdainful. Such people are easy to control. But Xuantian is different. He does not hide his alienation from her. So this makes Qin Huairu want to take down this wild horse even more strongly. This is not only a coercion from Jia Zhang, but also a battle to restore her dignity.

Unlike Qin Huairu, Xuantian did not pay too much attention to this chat. He was going back to cook. However, he would only cook a meal. He would eat the leftovers in the storage space last night. They were still fresh anyway, and this was just to satisfy his own appetite. There was no need to cook new ones to stimulate these neighbors.

After eating and drinking, Xuantian lay on the bed and closed his eyes to rest. He wanted to get enough rest as he was going to go to the legendary black market tonight and sell some things. He was almost out of money and bills, and both houses needed to be renovated, so money was indispensable.
