The female supporting role in the book: she is entangled in the chronicles

Chapter 30 Black Market
The chunky aunt came over and looked her up and down, "Are you Shen Shujia?"

Being looked at with the same eyes as looking at objects, Shen Shujia felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

She looked indifferent, "I'm Shen Shujia, what's the matter?"

Seeing her indifferent appearance, the chunky aunt suddenly showed a hint of displeasure on her dark face, "It's okay, I'll just ask."

The chubby aunt curled her lips, retracted her body and sat back in her original position, but cast a disgusted look at her from time to time.

Shen Shujia also felt the heat, but she felt that this aunt was a bit strange. This person didn't know herself, so why was she always looking at her?

Anyway, a few glances didn't affect her, so Shen Shujia just ignored her the whole time.

Seeing her like this, the dumpy aunt became even more angry.

When she returns home from the county, she must tell the third child's family that this daughter-in-law cannot be taken!

Going to the county in a bullock cart, one dime a person, Shen Shujia gave the money to Uncle Li, and just listened to the gossip of the aunts in boredom.

The chunky aunt whispered to the ear of the aunt next to her, which made the aunt give Shen Shujia a strange look.

The two aunts of Xinming Village also chatted a few words from time to time, and occasionally asked Shen Shujia a few words, but she was perfunctory.

The bullock cart drove slowly on the highway for about an hour, and finally arrived at Zhouzhi County.

She made an appointment with Gu Yan to meet in the county yesterday, but she didn't know where he was now.

Gu Yan set off earlier than Shen Shujia. He originally wanted to come to the county with her, but she refused.

She said that the two of them were seen walking together, and it was okay to be gossiped about, but she was afraid that if the discipline team found out, the two of them might lose their reputation in the village.

Except for husbands and wives and relatives, ordinary men and women can't get too close. If they are seen by others, they will inevitably attract criticism.

Gu Yan came from Interstellar and didn't understand these things, she couldn't let him and herself fall to that level.

In short, keeping a distance on the bright side has only advantages and no disadvantages.

Gu Yan felt a little upset for no reason, but he still listened to Shen Shujia's words.

At this time, he was standing squatting at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative. Shen Shujia only said that he would gather in the county, but did not say where.

Gu Yan thought, since he came to the county to sell meat, he should wait at the place where the goods are sold.

He walked around the county and found that there were almost no sellers. He only saw a few stores, which said state-run restaurants, state-run stores, supply and marketing cooperatives, etc.

But when he passed by an alley, there were many people in that alley.

Those people put backs, boxes, and baskets in front of them. The top was covered by a piece of cloth, and only a small corner was exposed.

And the expressions of those people are also very strange, their eyes keep looking around randomly, as if they are ready to run away at any time.

I don't know what those people are afraid of?
Gu Yan walked around, and finally decided to wait for Shen Shujia at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative.

The reason for choosing a supply and marketing cooperative is very simple. The store is large and close to the intersection, so it is easy to see.

Shen Shujia was carrying a pannier on her back, and she saw Gu Yan at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative from a distance.

Gu Yan stepped forward to take off the pannier and carried it by himself, "Where are we going now?"

Shen Shujia looked at the supply and marketing cooperative in front of her. She hadn't seen what it looked like inside the supply and marketing cooperative, and she didn't know much about the prices here.

"Wait for me here, I'll come out after I go in and have a look."

"Okay." Gu Yan put the pannier on his back and obediently waited on the spot.

Shen Shujia walked into the supply and marketing cooperative. When the salesperson saw someone coming in, he looked up, then lowered his head and went on with his own business.

The supply and marketing cooperative is quite large, and various commodities are divided into areas, which is no different from modern shopping malls and supermarkets.

It's just that the decoration and the variety of goods are not many.

Shen Shujia walked towards the meat side. There were pork, chicken and duck on the board.

There is a shortage of supplies at this time, and pork, chicken, and duck are already good, but as for beef and mutton, there is no such thing!

Asked the price, pork is 8 cents a catty, chicken and duck are 9 cents a catty, and you can only buy these with a meat ticket.

Silently remembering the price, Shen Shujia went to the snacks side. There were not many types of snacks, including common biscuits, candies, melon seeds, and chicken cakes.

Shen Shujia only had two yuan from Shen's mother, and gave Tan Qiming all the previous pocket money.

Suddenly she thought of Shen's father and Shen's mother, they really dote on her.

Girls from other families don't have the treatment of pocket money at all.

So Shen's mother gave her the only pocket money in the village, and many people who knew it secretly laughed at Shen's mother for not being able to manage the house.

No matter who's money is carefully calculated, every penny is used wisely, so I am not willing to give my daughter pocket money.

Besides, daughters are raised by marrying into other people's homes, and the more you spend, the more you will lose.

Shen's mother didn't bother to pay attention to those people, she just made fun of them, anyway, she only did what she liked to do.

She spends money for her daughter, not theirs, so she eats radish and doesn't worry about it!
Thinking that she would come to buy salt and other things later, she only bought an egg cake for one yuan.

After walking out of the supply and marketing cooperative, she came to Gu Yan, opened the bag to reveal an orange chicken cake, and a scent wafted out of the bag.

"Try this chicken cake, you probably haven't eaten it in Interstellar."

Gu Yan swallowed, "This is better than that bread?"

"Well, it's better than bread." Shen Shujia nodded.

The bread space he exchanged for the space was eaten up by him two days ago.

Gu Yan reached out and took one and put it in his mouth. It was soft and sweet, but unfortunately it was too small.

One bite at a time, Gu Yan ate half of it in one go.

Seeing that he was embarrassed to take it, Shen Shujia stuffed the remaining chicken cake into his hand, "Eat it, I treat you, let me tell you, there are many more delicious things than this chicken cake, just look at it." Do you have the money to buy it?"

Gu Yan's eyes lit up when he heard that, "Then after we go back, we will continue to catch prey to sell."

"Sell this batch first, let's go, let's go to the black market."

……

Shen Shujia and Gu Yan wandered around the county for a long time, but they couldn't find the black market. On the contrary, Shen Shujia's feet were blistered.

Seeing her limping, Gu Yan felt distressed in his eyes, but he didn't even realize it.

"What kind of black market did you tell me about? You wait for me here, and I will come back and take you when I find it."

Shen Shujia felt that what he said was right, Gu Yan walked faster than herself, so if he asked him to find it, he might find it soon.

Thinking about it, Shen Shujia told the characteristics of the black market, but Gu Yan heard half of it, and said that he knew where the black market was.

Isn't this the alley he saw when he was walking around the county?
Soon, Gu Yan brought Shen Shujia to the alley he had passed before.

Just when the two of them were about to walk into the alley, a young man of seventeen or eighteen suddenly stopped in front of him.

"You have to pay a dime to go in and sell things."
