Reborn in the 90s with a Space: Winning Back My Husband

Chapter 246: Chapter 246: How Do You Know There’s One Here?

After a several-hour bus ride, Shen Nian and Shen Xiangdong arrived at the provincial capital’s bus station.

After getting off the bus, Shen Xiangdong kept a close eye on Shen Nian.

"Xiao Nian, you have to stick close to me. Don’t get lost, okay?"

It was Shen Xiangdong’s first time in the provincial capital, too. But he was the older brother, and before they left, their parents had warned him over and over again to take good care of his sister.

’The provincial capital is a strange new place, and it’s so crowded. If she got lost, I’d have no idea how to find her!’

’If I lost my little sister... forget about our parents and little brother not forgiving me—Lu Cheng would never forgive me, and I could never forgive myself!’

"Big Bro, don’t be so nervous. Don’t worry, I did my research before we came. We’re only going to a few specific places, so we won’t get lost!"

"Huh? You researched it, little sis?"

Shen Xiangdong’s surprise was understandable. In truth, he didn’t even know the specific purpose of this trip to the provincial capital with Shen Nian. She had asked him to come, so he did.

"Of course I did. Otherwise, were we just going to wander around aimlessly after we got here?"

"So, uh, where are we going now?"

"Follow me."

’Of course, Shen Nian had been to the provincial capital in her past life, so she was hardly a stranger to the city. Even though this was an earlier time, some fundamental things wouldn’t have changed.’

’For example, the busiest and most prosperous parts of the city wouldn’t change much, even over a few years.’

Shen Nian led Shen Xiangdong straight to the downtown area of the provincial capital.

"Wow, there are so many people! This really is the provincial capital, alright. It’s so much more bustling than L County."

Shen Nian smiled as she watched her amazed older brother. ’And this is just the nineties. If he could see how prosperous it becomes in ten or twenty years, he’d probably have a heart attack!’

"Big Bro, let’s check out the nearby produce market first, and then we’ll go look at the supermarket. I remember a really big one already opened here."

"Huh? Xiao Nian, have you been here before? How would you know a big supermarket opened here?"

L County didn’t have any big supermarkets, but Shen Xiangdong had heard about them on the news. They supposedly sold everything and were incredibly convenient.

Shen Nian quickly clamped her mouth shut. ’How could I have let that slip!’ But fortunately, she had already prepared for this.

"Here," she said, "it’s a map of the provincial capital. I grabbed it when we got off the bus. Everything’s marked on it!"

"You’re the thoughtful one, Xiao Nian. And here I am, the older brother, not even thinking about these things."

"Don’t worry, Big Bro. I’m only coming with you to the provincial capital this one time. In the future, you’ll have to come by yourself. So you need to remember all of this."

"Okay, I’ll be sure to remember everything."

Shen Nian and Shen Xiangdong first went to the largest produce market in the downtown area. Greenhouse technology wasn’t widespread yet, so the market mostly carried seasonal vegetables, and there wasn’t a wide variety.

Shen Nian casually inspected some of the produce. The quality was all very average—a far cry from what she had managed to grow in her experiments.

"Let’s go to the supermarket, Big Bro!"

Coming to the produce market was just to scout out the situation. Shen Nian’s real sales target was the supermarket. After all, compared to a produce market, a supermarket was a step up, and its demand would be more stable.

"Okay."

Shen Xiangdong was like Shen Nian’s personal bodyguard, sticking close behind her. He went wherever she told him to go.
