Chapter 1787 Return with a Full Load10
Then, Cheng Baoguo used up all the cotton and cloth coupons. The salesperson was an old acquaintance, in fact, the daughter-in-law of a certain cadre, who had been in the position for so many years. After her reminder, Cheng Baoguo learned that there were defective cloths, so he bought two large pieces, a full 20 feet of work cloth and 20 feet of cotton cloth, each half a piece.
Seeing several brightly colored scarves hanging on the counter, Cheng Baoguo bought a bright red one for Fubao, and also bought a large piece of high-priced silk produced by Hangzhou Silk Factory without coupons.
Erxiong took Dundun Zhuangzhuang around again and again, but didn't see anything he liked, so he followed them angrily.
Cheng Baoguo turned around and asked Ye Yan, "What do you want to buy? Just tell me."
"I eat well, wear warm clothes, I don't want anything." Ye Yan thought seriously for a moment, "Grandpa Cheng, it's said that it's inconvenient to buy things in the countryside. Give me some money and food coupons. I want to buy things by myself."
Cheng Baoguo said nothing and took out thirty yuan and ten kilograms of food coupons for him.
The children in their family are very sensible and will not buy things randomly. Cheng Baoguo naturally gave them with confidence, and Ye Yan has always been very well-behaved.
Ye Yan carried his canvas shoulder bag and pulled Fubao to the counter selling candy and cakes, handed over the money and tickets, "Auntie, I want two kilograms of White Rabbit, two kilograms of Honey Three Knife and two kilograms of Yangjiao Honey."
"Didn't you buy it just now?" The salesperson was very impressed with their group.
Ye Yan said obediently: "Grandpa bought it, now I buy it for my sister."
A pound of cakes requires six taels of food coupons, but expensive milk candies do not require coupons, but they are expensive, five yuan a pound. Ye Yan collected the change and coupons, stuffed the milk candies and four pounds of fruit into his bag, patted the bulging bag, and turned to Fubao and said: "I bought it for you, don't tell anyone else, keep it for yourself."
"Why? Third Grandpa bought a lot." Fubao felt very strange.
Ye Yan said confidently: "Brother Xibao and Dundun both said that there are many children in the family. If we share some with them when we meet, how much candy and cake will be left? You won't be able to eat it."
Fubao pursed his lips, revealing the deep dimples on his cheeks, "Thank you, Brother Ye Yan."
The two returned to Cheng Baoguo hand in hand. Cheng Baoguo was still buying things. He couldn't take all the big and small bags. Cheng Baoguo asked Xibao to carry the cloth back first without thinking, and then asked someone to help. It would be best if Lu Tianzhi drove the tractor over. They went directly to the grain and oil store to buy oil and grain, and borrowed the equipment used by the Zhao family to load grain and make oil.
Three fine and seven coarse, according to this ratio, Cheng Baoguo bought half first, and half was three or four hundred kilograms.
Now it is close to the end of the year, and the butcher shop has long run out of meat. Cheng Baoguo sighed in despair while holding the meat ticket.
Zhao Anbang smiled and said, "Uncle Cheng, give me the meat ticket. I will queue up early in the morning to buy it for you on my day off. Otherwise, by the time you rush over from home, the meat will have been sold out."
Cheng Baoguo thought for a while, "Okay, you take the meat back and we will treat you to a good meal."
Seeing that half of the truck was full of things and people could only sit but not lie down, Lu Tianzhi was shocked. He raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist, "Uncle Zhao, it's getting late. We have to go back. See you later."
Zhao Anbang waved at them, "See you later, see you later."
Anyway, he often went to the countryside to the Wanglou Brigade, so he didn't care about the separation this time.
