Chapter 293: With Food in Hand, There Is No Need to Panic

"I want two dan of brown rice and one dan of mixed grain noodles.

Brown rice costs seven wen per liter, and mixed grain noodles costs six wen per liter. It cost two strings of money to buy them. Bai Yunxi felt so painful, but she was willing to spend it to store food for the winter.

One dan at this time is 125 catties. More than 370 catties of food, plus the food stored at home, should be enough to get through the coldest winter.

Hearing that the mother asked for so much food, Bai Anyan was surprised. He knew that today was mainly to buy food, but he didn't expect the mother to buy so much at once?

However, before he could ask, his arm was patted by Li.

Li pulled him aside and glared at him,

"What do you want to do? We are here to help today. Just listen to what the mother wants to do, don't interrupt.

Bai Anyan's mouth twitched, "Don't you think mother bought too much food?"

"What do you mean by too much? Buy more at a time to save running back and forth. Besides, our mother always makes the right decision."

Li glared at him, "Don't complain."

Listening to his wife's words, Bai Anyan was stunned, watching the shopkeeper excitedly calling the waiter to weigh the food, and his heart was still very entangled.

Even if it is not suitable to go out in winter, three stones of food is still a bit too much, and there are other foods stored at home.

Looking at Li's matter-of-fact look, Bai Anyan twitched his mouth, and while they were talking, the food had been weighed.

Shopkeeper Wang looked at Bai Yunxi with a smile on his face,

"Sister Bai, please take a look, the scale is definitely high, seeing that you bought a lot, I will give you two liters of black flour. Don't worry, these are also new grains this autumn, and the taste is not bad."

Bai Yunxi glanced at the refined rice next to her, and suppressed the impulse in her heart several times. With the current situation of her family, eating refined rice is too wasteful.

After handing over the money, Bai Yunxi looked at the two liters of black noodles that the waiter handed to Li and quietly expressed his gratitude.

Shopkeeper Wang ordered the waiter to put the brown rice into a sack. When Bai Anyan saw this, he hurried over to help, and the two of them lifted it onto the cart together.

Bai Yunxi also took the opportunity to ask the shopkeeper about the price of pine nuts.

Shopkeeper Wang listened to her inquiry and pointed to the dried fruit shop opposite.

"Sister Bai really asked the right person. Pine nuts are precious and expensive. Most people can't bear to eat them. The fried pine nuts in their store are 100 wen per catty. How much brown rice can you buy with 100 wen? Anyway, I can't bear to eat them."

Shopkeeper Wang laughed.

"Many of the melon seeds and nuts in the dried fruit shop are collected in the countryside. I don't know the prices of other things, but I accidentally came across pine nuts once. The purchase price was 50 wen per catty."

"It's only two months before the Chinese New Year. The price of pine nuts should be higher. You have to ask Sister-in-law for the details."

Following the guidance of Shopkeeper Wang, Bai Yunxi glanced at the dried fruit shop opposite. It was quite busy with people coming in and out.

"Thank you so much. I'll ask them if they still accept it later?"

If the price is not ideal, she will have to go to the county town.

More than 200 kilograms of pine nuts at home, even if it is conservatively estimated, will cost more than 10 guan of money.

After buying food, Bai Yunxi went to buy two pounds of salt, and asked the second brother and his wife to push the cart back.

When passing by the pork shop, Bai Yunxi saw the newly cut bones on the counter, and bought a few pounds of pork bones to make soup.

On the way back home, Bai Yunxi walked in the door and someone came to visit.
