Chapter 21 Catch the big market

Those things are not meant to be eaten all at once.

If you wash it, it won't last long before it gets damaged.

It would be better to bring mud with you, and the situation would be better.

"Okay, then just eat and wash as much as you want.

By the way, Mom, there isn’t much firewood left at home. I’ll pick some up tomorrow!
I also want to see if there are any edible wild vegetables. The sweet potatoes haven't reached their prime yet, so it would be a pity. "

In summer, there are a lot of wild vegetables, but they are all older.

If people eat it, it has no taste, so everyone will choose to feed it to chickens or something.

However, there are several types that can be eaten.

"Tomorrow, we just need to go together. We need to get more firewood.

I'll borrow a cart later, and we can bring back some more. "

"Okay~"

This is the case in this era, especially in rural areas, when you eat, you have to smoke.

Firewood is also very important, and you need to stock up on some. If there is a flood later, it will be inconvenient to go up the mountain.

The house still lacks a place to store firewood. Thinking about it this way, there are really many things to do.

Let the children clean up and go to bed first, while Liu Yunshuang took advantage of the moonlight to use the wicker sticks to weave baskets.

Now she couldn't wait to split her time in half.

"Mom, why don't you teach me and I'll help you make it up together."

“No need, Zhiqing, don’t worry about this, we’ll talk about it later.

Tomorrow morning, I'm going to the town to attend a big market. We still lack a lot of things at home.

Just in time, I’ll also buy some delicious food to feed you.

There are still two twists left, and I forgot to take them out to eat at night.

I'll put it on the bed later, and you three can eat it tomorrow morning. "

When Xu Zhiqing heard that she was going to Qingshi Town, she felt a little yearning for it.

"Mom, do you have a lot to buy? Do you want me to go with you?"

"I originally wanted to take you two sisters for a while.

Now knowing Li’s situation, there must be no one in the house.

Zhiqing, mom is not here, thank you for your hard work.

When your brother gets better later, mom will take you with her. "

Hearing this, Xu Zhiqing nodded quickly.

"It's okay, Mom. Don't worry about the family. I can take good care of them."

Liu Yunshuang rubbed her eldest daughter's head, feeling anxious in her heart.

With Xu Zhiqing here, she really felt relieved.

Finally finishing a small basket, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The remaining wicker can be braided three more times.

I can't take any time off these two days.

Quietly, he went to wash up, and then lay down on the bed.

This day is really thrilling. Fortunately, my son is back, which is a great thing.

Liu Yunshuang looked sideways and glanced at the three sleeping children. Liu Yunshuang was very happy.

……

Early the next morning, she went out.

In 76, the country approved the socialist movement.

Farmers can take their own property and sell it in the market, or exchange it for other items.

Qingshi Town responded to the call immediately. The first and fifteenth days of every month are the busiest times.

Many people would go there with their own agricultural and sideline products, but other things were not for sale.

For example, food, oil, meat and other items purchased and sold by the state can still only be purchased from supply and marketing cooperatives.

This does not fall into the category of self-produced and sold. Fortunately, there is a supply and marketing cooperative in the town, so shopping is convenient.

As usual, I was carrying a big backpack. I was short of a lot of things at home, so I was going to go shopping like crazy today.

There were also many people going to the Red Star Production Team. She went out so early, but she still met her fellow travelers.

Yesterday's incident had already spread, and meeting her was nothing more than asking about matters with Lao Xu's family.

Liu Yunshuang didn't want to talk to her, but there happened to be a person who helped her yesterday. I can only deal with a few simple sentences, so forget it.

It's only six miles to Qingshi Town, not very far, we'll be there in a moment.

She also quickly separated from this group of people. They all took vegetables and eggs from their own homes to exchange for some money.

She was buying something, so it was naturally different.

Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative first. There aren't many people here, so we don't want to be seen by acquaintances.

Most people sell things first and then come to consume.

It's easier to do it the other way around.

She first went to buy two kilograms of pork belly, and then went inside again.

The meat shop here is separate from the department store. The supply and marketing cooperative in the town is not as big as the one in the county town.

Fortunately, the commonly used things are all complete and don't get in the way.

I packed a pound of soybean oil, bought another pound of salt, and made some soy sauce.

Because there was no container, I bought two small jars and a gourd nearby, which can be used at home.

Then I bought two more paint basins and a pair of scissors.

In fact, there are still many things that need to be bought.

She didn't want to spend so much money all at once, good or bad.

After finally being reborn, I really don’t want to make a mistake in a place like this.

There is nothing here, so I went to the grain station and bought five kilograms of white flour.

Last time, the ticket given by Master Qiao contained twenty kilograms of white flour.

I just happened to buy meat today, so I went back to make dumplings to celebrate my new life.

The market outside is really lively.

People from nearby production teams came over to catch up.

In addition to using money to buy things, you can also exchange them directly, and the sounds of shouting and bargaining are endless.

Feeling the strong atmosphere of human fireworks, Liu Yunshuang's steps became a little brisker.

I bought five more cooking brooms for three cents apiece, no tickets needed.

It is estimated that there will be no sorghum stalks available this year, so prepare in advance if you see one.

I also bought a small broom for sweeping the kang. I have a big broom at home that can sweep the floor.

Later, I tied up two larger ones and used them to sweep the yard.

I also bought three gourds and gourds, which will make scooping water more convenient.

I have been using a bowl these past few days, which is very laborious.

In addition, I bought two heads of Chinese cabbage and five pounds of celery.

When I was about to go home, I happened to meet a cucumber seller. This was the first time in the market.

"Mom, how much does this cost per pound?"

"Five cents, look how tender I am, the older ones haven't been picked yet."

It is indeed very tender, and when you pinch it with your fingers, you will immediately get a mark.

However, five cents is indeed not cheap, and there is much to see and little to buy.

"Give me two pounds!"

"Row……"

I didn't expect her to be so happy, and the old lady was also very happy.

In the end, the scale was high and an extra stick was added. Liu Yunshuang was also very happy.

I bought another bunch of green onions and was about to go home. This trip was also full of harvest.

If I can still get it, I'll probably have to buy a few more things.

It seems that I will come over next time we meet.

She went back relatively early, and there weren't many people on the road.

Thinking of the way the children looked at her returning home with a full load, they couldn't help but quicken their pace.

"Ling ring ring~"

When the car bell rang, she quickly pulled over.

Two bicycles passed by at high speed. Why did I feel that the one wearing the hat was Master Qiao?
