Rebirth of a chartered wife

Chapter 35 Liu Xiumei’s Goddaughter

Liu Xiumei glanced at the second child, then coughed slightly and said, "Lai Lai, there is a colleague in the factory whose family is related to the grain station. We should take the opportunity to exchange for some grain."

"Your sister slowly put together these grains over a month."

"As for those cans, that person also introduced them. I told you sisters last time to replace them as long as you have them."

"Don't go out and make any noise about this matter."

"I'll call your wife later to see what your needs are. I'll give you the money first."

"Your sister and I carried so many things into the yard today, someone will definitely come later!"

Liu Xiumei said seriously, and the Fumanjiang brothers nodded.

Just ...

"Do you also need a ticket for canned food?" Fu Manhai asked.

There is no separate ticket for canned goods in Nanshi. You usually use dim sum tickets to buy canned food.

But dim sum tickets are not easy to get. Canned food with soup and water requires more tickets.

Therefore, in the eyes of most people in Nan City, canned food is a very high-end and luxurious nutritional product.

"I don't need a ticket, but I have to pay a little extra. For the big one, which weighs more than two kilograms, I need to pay two cents. For the small one, which weighs nearly one kilogram, I only need to pay one cent." Liu Xiumei reacted quickly. answered.

When the brothers heard this, they both thought it was a good deal.

Not to mention that the supply and marketing cooperative has not even seen large cans, but even if they have seen it, the two brothers cannot easily come up with more than two kilograms of dim sum tickets.

So it only costs two cents more, which is a huge bargain.

The two brothers immediately decided to share a large can each. Liu Xiumei waved her hand and urged them to call their wives to come and discuss the matter first. Only then did the brothers calm down from their excitement.

However, Mao Guixiang and Mao Guixiang's eyes widened as soon as they saw something.

I heard that the two of them could also use money to exchange tickets directly, and the two of them wanted to make a decision immediately.

The corner of Liu Xiumei's mouth twitched slightly. Is this really a case of not being able to enter the same house?

Tired, Liu Xiumei emphasized again that this kind of matter must be discussed between the couple, and Liu Xiumei once again waved her hands to drive the two daughters-in-law away.

From the beginning to the end, the three lucky people who had no say in the story were extremely funny.

Taking advantage of the temporary absence of the two couples, Liu Xiumei directly began to settle accounts with her daughter.

"The three large cans must be the most expensive price you mentioned last time. There are three bottles in total. The remaining ten small bottles are sold at the supply and marketing cooperative for 5 cents. It's difficult to buy them and you have to pay for them."

"This rice is of good quality, 0.23 per pound is really cheap for them. This flour should be the highest-grade Fuqiang flour, right?"

"The regular flour at the grain station is 0.18, the standard flour is 0.22, and I have never seen Fuqiang flour before." As she spoke, Liu Xiumei looked up at her daughter.

Fu Yunlai was calculating secretly in his heart, and replied softly and uncertainly: "I'll change it to 3 cents..."

"The price is not expensive... no wonder it's rare to see it at a grain station. Such a good thing, the food stamps still only cost the same amount. It's not like you don't have to wait for someone to see you, it's all divided!"

"Glutinous rice is expensive, 5 cents per pound, but millet... It's hard to buy here, but it's also hard to sell. Except for the elderly, children, and the weak, they basically don't buy it. The price is 0.25. "

"So, if you don't count the tickets, the total is 14 yuan!"

Liu Xiumei smacked her tongue repeatedly. This was really not unknown. She was so shocked that it almost cost her daughter a month's salary.

Wait... Could it be that she didn't have much money left, so she only came back with these?
Liu Xiumei looked at Fu Yunlai suspiciously, and just as she was about to ask, Mao Guixiang and the others pushed the door open and came in.

Seeing the two people coming in, Fu Yunlai also closed his mouth.She was about to discuss with her mother how she calculated 12.4 yuan into 14 yuan.

"Dad, Mom, eldest sister, little sister...we have already discussed it!" Mao Guixiang's eyes sparkled.

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately started to take out the money.

Mao Guixiang took out 1.2 yuan first, and then brought the largest bottle of canned fruits to her side.

Xu Chunhua next to her also made the same move.

Then the two of them took out another 1.2 yuan and each took two small cans.

Then there are the grains. Xu Chunhua is more entangled about this, but Mao Guixiang is very neat and tidy: "Mom, I want to exchange this white flour with glutinous rice. Mom, can you lend me the bag first?"

"Replace all?" Liu Xiumei raised an eyebrow slightly, but it was not a surprise.

After all, her eldest daughter-in-law's in-laws are famous for loving their daughters.

A daughter from another family desperately pulls things from her parents' family. When her eldest daughter-in-law married in, her parents' family desperately tried to send things to her husband's family.

At first, Liu Xiumei couldn't believe it. The eldest daughter-in-law's mother-in-law's mother-in-law's family even said with an embarrassed face: "I heard that my mother-in-law's mother-in-law's mother-in-law's family is out of town and far away in the village. They come here twice a year."

"Their family is very close... they may come more often a year. I hope my in-laws won't find it objectionable!"

What does she dislike?
Do you dislike bringing candy every time you come here if you can, and can you bring snacks if you can’t?
I still dislike the fact that every time my in-laws make buns, I give two to my daughter to try... My daughter eats one, and the remaining son-in-law and grandson take turns to taste a bite each.

Mao Guixiang nodded with a smile and said, "Mom, I will deliver the food stamps tomorrow."

"Manjiang and I ran out of food stamps quickly, and we no longer have any at home. Today I will send half of the food back to my parents' house, and my parents will definitely scrape it together for me."

The cheating mother-in-law said it so naturally...

Several people in the room felt a little embarrassed.

Xu Chunhua next to her was even more afraid to speak. She was still thinking about how she had borrowed money from her parents' family because of her work.

Although she said she had to pay back more, she still seized the opportunity.

She was reluctant to give this can away. In addition to leaving it to her children, she was also prepared to use it depending on the situation.

But getting two kilograms of white flour is a good thing, especially when my sister-in-law brings back the best Fuqiang noodles.

That's why it's hard to deal with the lack of food stamps.

but now……

Liu Xiumei didn't bother to think about the thoughts of her two daughters-in-law. Seeing that they had no need anymore, she immediately waved them away.

Then the family sat down and prepared to see what to do with the rest.

"Mom...these grains are actually free of charge!" Fu Yunlai emphasized in a low voice.

Liu Xiumei naturally knew that, seeing that her daughter was still looking stupid, she simply took the opportunity to teach her a lesson: "This is what you are doing! Don't just think about whether it is difficult for you to get it, what you have to consider is...the people who get it, what they can get. !”

"If you just blindly give too much, the person you receive may feel a little embarrassed at first. But over time, it will be easy for people to take advantage of you. This is human nature - you will not be satisfied so easily!"

"What's more, it is something that is easily tabooed by others."

"Even if you are giving to others and helping others... you may not necessarily receive gratitude!"
