She thought that it would take some time for someone to react to her barter request. But by the time she made a fresh meal for herself, someone had already reacted to her post and asked for a barter.
Bai Meiyue, with her sharp eyes, noticed the notification at once and was quite surprised when she saw the barter request.
However, after staying in the apocalypse, Bai Meiyue had long learnt the importance of a good meal without hurrying or gobbling down food. She first calmly finished her meal and only after finishing her meal did she accept the barter request.
Soon, she found herself in the familiar blue room. But this time around she was sitting in front of a woman who was dressed in an intergalactic shirt and pants.
"Are you Miss Bai?" the woman asked with a polite expression.
"Yes," Bai Meiyue nodded. She noticed that the woman in front of her was similar to her and didn't like to waste her time. Thus, she did not waste another second by endorsing her product and simply asked, "Are you really willing to exchange the space pocket for this jade hairpin?"
In response the woman smiled and explained, "Don't worry, Miss Bai. I know that you are worried that I will regret the barter but I won't. This jade hairpin might not be expensive in your dimension but in mine, it's ten times the amount of the space pocket."
The woman was in a similar position as Bai Meiyue, where she and her mother had been kicked out of the house by her father, who brought his mistress and son home.
The Barter System was a great tool for the woman to turn her situation around. As long as she could buy this jade hairpin, she would be able to earn a fortune that would help her in the long run.
Bai Meiyue hummed. She had no use for this hairpin and agreed with the barter at once.
Once the barter was finished, Bai Meiyue returned to her penthouse and heard a ding in her head followed by a mechanical sound.
[The Barter exchange was successful.]
[The space pocket has been transferred successfully.]
Listening to the pleasant notification tone of the Barter system, the corners of Bai Meiyue's lips curled up slightly.
She was short on storage space where things would remain fresh no matter how long they had been kept there. Now that she had obtained this equipment, Bai Meiyue's worries eased a lot.
At the same time, she was grateful that she was given another chance at life and that too with such a great golden finger. In the past, she used to believe that she had ruined a city for the unlucky things that she had gone through.
From being brainwashed by her father and becoming his cash cow to being caught and thrown in the street to be scolded while Bai Xue rose to fame after stepping on her. If that wasn't the worst possible outcome, she ended up being caught in the tsunami and nearly lost her life if not for awakening her powers.
Her loved ones were lost and she was used by the white-eyed wolves until she lost everything.
It was only now that she was back and the Bai family was locked up in prison that Bai Meiyue believed that the heavens truly had eyes.
With the space in hand, Bai Meiyue decided to visit the farmer's market again in the morning. But before that she was going to take a nap!
While Bai Meiyue went to take a nap for the proper growth of her son, Bai Zhan and Yan Wanning were running around the village.
After they heard Bai Meiyue's words, they were worried that Bai Meiyue would really end up on the street and started selling their land.
By the time they stopped, the entire village was looking at them as if they were looking at fools. After all, Yan Wanning's land was not only fertile; it was also rich in production and yet it was sold in a matter of a second for a daughter who was ruined.
Though the situation in the cities had changed, the villagers were still a bit restrained and narrow-minded. Even though Bai Meiyue was forced, in the end, she was ruined, a flawed product in the eyes of the villagers.
Thus, they could not understand Yan Wanning and her actions of bringing money to her daughter.
Yan Wanning also knew that the villagers were mocking her but she did not care. Her daughter had suffered so much because of her unreliable actions; how could she not be in a hurry to help her daughter?
"Jixuan, you should go and bring your sons home," said Yan Wanning as she started packing. "Meiyue must be in a bad mood after what happened to her. I heard from the villagers that sometimes little girls who go through such experiences end up taking a grave step."
"If Jiuque and Qian Han are with her, at least Meiyue will not think about the things that happened to her."
Bai Jixuan agreed. But inwardly he was rather worried.
His wife was an unreasonable woman. Not only did she run to her maternal house at the smallest matter, but she also liked to keep his sons by her side to ensure full control over him.
He was certain that Fang Qing would not agree.
"I will go with you, Brother." Bai Zhan noticed that Bai Jixuan was looking worried and given his sister-in-law's virtue, he knew the reason why.
Bai Jixuan looked at his younger brother and nodded.
The two brothers got on the cycle and drove to the Citrus Village where Fang Qing lived with her family.
As soon as they arrived at the Fang family house, the scent of meat overwhelmed their nostrils and Bai Zhan sneered.
"Brother, it seems like that woman once again subsidised my nephew's meal money for her family. Are you going to let her keep doing this?"
