There is space for the orphan girl in the rebirth era

Chapter 103 County Turmoil ([-])

More than a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and the small mountain village is still as peaceful as ever. Everyone works at sunrise and rests at sunset every day.

In the past month or so, apart from cutting pigweed and collecting herbs in the mountains, Lu Xiaoxiao has been practicing at home.

She has now reached the seventh floor of her mental method, and her exercises can also break a tree with internal strength and external force.

There are also more than ten kinds of medicinal materials collected on the mountain, all of which have been successfully processed.

Lu Xiaoxiao thought that she hadn't been to the county seat for more than a month, hadn't received the subsidy for two months, and many tickets at home were about to expire, so she planned to go to the county seat tomorrow.

But this time when I go to the county seat, I have to go to the captain's house first to open a letter of introduction, which is really troublesome.

The next morning, after Lu Xiaoxiao finished her meal, she walked towards the entrance of the village with a messenger bag on her back and a black fisherman's hat on her back.

Now that the spring plowing has ended, the ox carts have begun to operate normally, so we can go to the county again by ox cart.

When Lu Xiaoxiao arrived at the entrance of the village, she saw several educated youths standing there, so she went over to say hello to them, and then stood beside them waiting for the ox cart.

Not long after, she saw Uncle Liu driving an ox cart. After the ox cart stopped, she sat behind Uncle Liu. Because Uncle Liu had to drive to the county every day, she planned to ask Uncle Liu. The material situation in the county, so she also has a bottom line.

But before she could ask, she heard Uncle Liu's low voice, and he said, "Xiaoxiao, this time you're going to the county town, you should hurry back to the bullock cart after shopping, and stop wandering around." , There are a lot of human traffickers in the county now."

After listening to Uncle Liu's words, Lu Xiaoxiao replied: "Uncle Liu, I understand, I will come back as soon as I finish shopping."

After the bullock cart arrived at the county seat, Lu Xiaoxiao got off the bullock cart, and then she went to the post office to receive the subsidy. When she saw the latest special 75 stamps in the post office, she bought two sets, planning to keep one for collection and use the other. .

After leaving the post office, Lu Xiaoxiao walked towards the State-run Hotel. She had too many food stamps and meat stamps that were about to expire, so she had to use them up today.

Lu Xiaoxiao entered the state-run restaurant and saw that the breakfast served today was much less than a month ago. In the past, there were meat dumplings and the like, but now there are only three kinds of steamed buns, egg noodles, and clear soup noodles. It is really pitiful.

She packed ten steamed buns and a bowl of egg noodles and left the state-run restaurant. It seems that the county's supplies are much more scarce than a month ago.

Thinking of the various tickets that were about to expire in her bag, she walked towards the department store.

When Lu Xiaoxiao came to the pastry shop in the department store, she saw that there were only three kinds of pastries, so she weighed each one by two catties.

After buying the pastries, Lu Xiaoxiao came to the place where the sugar was sold again, because at this time the big white rabbit milk candy was real and full of milk flavor, she liked it very much, so she bought all the two catties of sugar tickets for the big white rabbit milk sugar.

The Cunning Rabbit Three Caves, because of the previous lessons, Lu Xiaoxiao would not buy too many things in one place, so after buying pastries and candies, she left the department store and planned to go to the supply and marketing agency to continue shopping.

When Lu Xiaoxiao came to the supply and marketing cooperative, she saw that the supply of food and meat was still in short supply. The pork stall had some bones, trotters and lean meat left, and the grain stall was even more pitiful, with only some coarse grains such as sweet potatoes and black noodles left.

She thought of the meat ticket in the bag, and asked the salesperson in charge of selling pork, Auntie, how much the price of pork was.

The salesperson aunt replied: "Fat meat and lean meat are all [-] cents a catty plus a meat ticket, and bones and pig's trotters are [-] cents a catty and don't need a ticket."

After hearing the price, Lu Xiaoxiao said to the salesperson, "I want two catties of lean meat and two big bones."
