Chapter 489 The Big Purchase

On the contrary, the bicycles were more strenuous on the snowy road. Under the bright sunlight, the three of them arrived at the county seat when the sun was high, and then went straight to the department store.

"Hey, it's here again, this is to buy new year's goods, right?" Yang Bing saw them, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and handed them to them, said with a smile.

Wang Manyin took the melon seeds and handed over two Daqianmen cigarettes, "Brother Yang, today we are not just here to buy New Year's goods, my brother-in-law is getting married, and we are going to buy cigarettes, alcohol and candies for the wedding."

Yang Bing nodded suddenly, and glanced at Shao'an and Runye, "Blessed are you, brother-in-law, to be able to marry such a handsome girl. I wish you a happy wedding in advance, have a precious son early, and grow old together."

Run Ye lowered his head shyly, while Shao An nodded generously and thanked Brother Yang.

"We need to buy something. If we get more, we will go directly to the warehouse to get it, but there is really no discount. You also know that this is collective property, and we don't count."

Wang Manyin nodded to express his understanding, then turned around and asked Shaoan about how much he needed to prepare.

Shao'an said: "Uncle Futang said that for this banquet, everyone from the Tian family's Liolao side will probably have to come. In addition, the Jin family who are close to me may also come to join in the fun."

"At that time, it is estimated that there will be more than [-] tables, so let's count as [-] tables."

Yang Bing smacked his lips, "It's better to be in your hometown. Getting married is such a big deal, and the cost is not small."

Shaoan smiled, "According to the twenty-five tables, each table needs to prepare ten cigarettes, ten pieces of candy, and peanuts and melon seeds. After all, you must buy at least three cigarettes, weighing thirty catties of sugar, melon seeds. Let the peanuts come with twenty catties each."

"Besides getting married, the rest of the Chinese New Year can still be used. I don't know if it's enough."

"By the way, there are also firecrackers. If you want to hang them up, give me ten."

The department stores in the county mainly buy these things, and they can buy other things in their own villages, such as wedding dresses, paper-cuts, and quilts, which are made by orchids for them.

Others, such as new beds and chairs, are all made by craftsmen in the village.

Yang Bing nodded, "There are a lot of things. Do you have enough cigarette tickets and sugar tickets?"

Shaoan took out a handful, "Don't worry, Brother Yang, if we don't have a money ticket, how dare we step into this land."

Wang Manyin took the opportunity to interject, "Brother Yang, I'll buy a pack of Hongmei cigarettes, and I'll also bring three boxes of Daqianmen. The candy weighs [-] catties for me, and the melon seeds also come to [-] catties. Peanuts are not used. The villagers sent a lot of peanuts. "

"By the way, I also want peach cakes. Let's buy five catties. The supply and marketing cooperative in our commune also has peach cakes. If you want to eat them, you can go and buy them."

Yang Bing nodded, "Okay, then you guys will follow me to the warehouse. There are a lot of things, and there is not much left after taking them outside."

Following him to the warehouse, Yang Bing remembered to ask Shaoan what cigarettes he wanted.

"Let's ask for the golden monkey. It's enough to entertain guests. By the way, we also need to buy some peach cakes, and save them for the Chinese New Year."

The grade of the golden monkey belongs to the middle and lower grades, a little lower than that of Hongmei, let alone compared with the top Daqianmen.

But no matter how low the grade is, it is still a cigarette with a handle, which is enough for the villagers.

Cigarettes, candies, melon seeds and peanuts are all bought, and liquor is naturally indispensable.

However, liquor cannot be bought in department stores. Although department stores also sell alcohol, not only do they require liquor tickets, but the price is also extremely expensive.

They had been in Yuanxi County so many times, and they had known for a long time that there was a wine shop in the county. After getting acquainted with the people in the shop, they discovered that they were also secretly selling alcohol.

The price is ten cents more expensive than department stores, but there is no need for a drink ticket, so this place has naturally become their first choice.

When I came to the wine shop, maybe because I didn't want a drink ticket, Shaoan waved his hand and asked for [-] catties!
Don't look at the weight of eighty catties, the men in their village are not cowards when drinking, and the average drinking capacity per capita is not bragging.

If you are happy with the drink, half a catty may not be a problem. If you run out of cigarettes, you can smoke your own dry tobacco, but if there is not enough white wine at that time, if you can't drink to your heart's content, the host's family will lose face.

Even if the [-] catties of baijiu can't be finished, that's okay. The baijiu has been stored for a long time. It's also very pleasant to drink a little wine to warm your stomach when you have nothing to do.

After buying so much liquor, the person in the wine shop gave a plastic jug for free, moved the jug to the side of the tricycle, and placed it next to the cigarettes and candies.

Wang Manyin was called today because he mainly wanted to use his tricycle, otherwise it would be difficult to send so many things, especially the [-] catties of liquor, back from the county.

Afterwards, Shaoan went to buy some new bowls and chopsticks, pots and pans. The new home had to look like a new home. In the future, Runye would live with him, and some new things should be added to the home.

The bowls and chopsticks in the old cave dwelling are all old, and the pitch black makes people lose their appetite. Although he has long been used to it, Runye can't dislike it.

Afterwards, Shaoan and Runye bought whatever they thought of, thinking about the life after marriage in their hearts, and they were quite energetic.

Wang Manyin didn't bother to follow them, and said, "You can buy whatever you want. I'll go to the barber shop to shave my beard, and then I'll go to the bathroom to take a bath."

"Take a bath."

There was some change in Shaoan's eyes, but thinking that he still had so many things he hadn't bought, he could only nod his head.

"Brother-in-law, what shall we have for lunch?"

"Mutton steamed buns, it smells delicious just now." Wang Manyin thought for a while and said.

Shaoan looked at the time, "Okay, let's eat at the mutton steamed bun at [-]:[-], brother-in-law, go take a bath."

Wang Manyin waved his hand, rode a tricycle to the barber shop, had his hair and beard trimmed, then went straight to the bathhouse, bought a bath ticket, and lay down comfortably in it.

In this kind of weather, taking a bath is simply a kind of enjoyment, revealing comfort from head to toe.

In the afternoon, they came to Tian Fujun's house and told the news that they were about to get married.

"I'm getting married, okay, when are you going to do it?" Tian Fujun said cheerfully.

"Prepare for the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. If you have time, Uncle Fujun, I hope you can come and have fun." Shao'an said respectfully.

"Twelfth lunar month twenty-eight."

Tian Fujun babbled a bit, frowned, as if he was recalling the work arrangement that day.

He nodded, "Okay, I know, although I'm busy with work, I can never finish my work. For Run Ye's marriage, I definitely have to go back."

"Hey, Run Ye, Second Dad is sorry for you. It stands to reason that Second Dad should also help you with your marriage, but Second Dad really can't get out."

Run Ye quickly said: "Second Dad, I don't like hearing your words. If you hadn't supported me, my dad might not have promised me to be with Brother Shaoan."

"Hehe, Shao'an, you have to treat Run Ye well in the future, this is the precious girl of our Tian family, and I will leave it to you in the future."
