Rebirth of a chartered wife

Chapter 46

Liu Xiumei's temporary departure did not affect the group of people chatting enthusiastically.

Fu Yunlai, under Fu Manman's command, cut enough watermelon, covered the rest with gauze, put it in a basin, and then froze it in a water tank.

While the others were chatting too selflessly, Fu Yunlai hurried back to the room.

After closing the door, she first put the cloth in the bag back into the system backpack, and then took out a bag of bulk biscuits and a few pieces of bulk Shaqima.

This bulk biscuit also looked very familiar. Fu Yunlai thought about it carefully, wasn't it the kind of sesame round biscuit she had eaten when she was a child?

One portion is exactly one pound, and it is a big bag full when you take it out.

Shaqima, on the other hand, is made with brown sugar. Although there are no nuts or sesame embellishments, the sweet aroma is so tempting that I almost can't help but want to eat it directly.

After Fu Yunlai put them away one by one, he opened the door again and walked out.

Outside the door, the lively chatter seemed to be as usual.

Fu Yunlai walked silently to Fu Manman and listened to her talking to her two sisters-in-law.

Liu Xiumei came back quickly. She was already back before the two families left.

But when they saw her, the Mao family took the initiative to stand up and say goodbye. Seeing this, Xu's mother also pulled her son who was sitting steadily.

Liu Xiumei didn't treat guests very much. It was like this now. If the family didn't really have extra food rations, no one would be too sincere to treat relatives who came to the house without food rations!

After seeing the two of them out of the alley, Fu Yunlai still couldn't understand the purpose of these two families coming here.

Taking the opportunity to pack things, Liu Xiumei called her youngest daughter to follow her into the kitchen.

"Everything has been found, but the terms of exchange required by the two families are different." Liu Xiumei said softly to her daughter:
"Red fabrics and green fabrics are both hard to come by. Anyone who has one hides them deeply. They are not familiar with them, and most of them are not willing to exchange them."

"What are the specific conditions?" This was the first time Fu Yunlai knew this, and he was very curious.

"The red fabric is not too big and can only be used to make half-length clothes. The other party happens to have a newborn at home and needs brown sugar or other supplements."

At this point, Liu Xiumei paused, but she didn't mind telling the truth in front of her daughter: "His family also said it would be better if they could have milk powder!"

"I really can think of it...who has milk powder and is willing to use it to change cloth?"

"Red cloth!" Fu Yunlai corrected in a low voice. Ordinary cloth is naturally not so rare. "Only Hong Bu dares to say this!" Liu Xiumei muttered softly. If she didn't know this was the only family, she wouldn't have come to ask!
"The green cloth is from the yard behind us. I heard it can be used for two outfits!"

"Two bodies?" Fu Yunlai exclaimed. Apart from her own space, Fu Yunlai had never seen anyone whose cloth was measured by body!

After hesitating for a moment... Fu Yunlai asked: "Isn't it harder to change?"

Liu Xiumei shook her head and lowered her voice: "They don't choose anything, as long as people can trust them, they can exchange for anything."

"That's it...if you have money but no tickets, you have to give a little more!"

After saying this, Liu Xiumei said again: "Come on... How about we pay more attention in the future?"

"How about... I can pick you up by bike before you get off work on vacation!"

On the way back, Liu Xiumei came up with this after thinking about it again and again.

After all, it’s not completely peaceful outside now!

It is a blessing that a girl comes home with so many things.

If you are noticed by someone in the alley, find an excuse to stop them and open them...

Just thinking about it makes Liu Xiumei terrified!
The previous generation of the Fu family had the luck to move into the city, but before they even had time to buy a house, things were already in chaos.

By the generation of the child's grandfather and his family, many families had dispersed, let alone become rich.

Later, their generation finally settled down!

As for Liu Xiumei herself, her parents' ancestors are all from the village.

Based on this calculation, their family can be said to be either poor farmers or workers, which is a very good background.

Unless there is really a definite situation, even those people would not dare to stop them easily and forcefully search their things.

What I'm afraid of is that if we happen to meet each other in a place like an alley, they can really open things because of the sheer number of people, and that's called unclear!

And when you ride a bicycle, you don’t have to worry about being stopped!
Even if they did bring something with them, as long as they didn't open it on the spot, Liu Xiumei wouldn't be so scared!
