Chapter 17, Granny Wu
"Mother." Wu Shaoyuan was a little displeased, how could he bring a stranger home, but it was hard for him to say anything with outsiders around.

She knows what her son is like better than anyone else, and Granny Wu immediately opened her mouth to explain.

After listening, Wu Shaoyuan stepped forward and sincerely thanked Bai Jiu: "Thank you, Comrade Bai." He should be grateful for the kindness of the old man who sent the old man back.

Bai Jiu was taken aback by his bow and thanked him, and hurriedly avoided, "Uncle Wu, what are you doing, you don't need it, you don't need it."

Granny Wu rolled her eyes, she knew the virtues of her son better than anyone else, she must have been suspicious of Bai Jiu just now.

"Okay, why are you back at this time? Didn't you say that the unit has a meeting?" Granny Wu asked after pulling her son away and letting him sit aside.

"Just hold a task meeting. I don't worry about you. I'll be back after the meeting." A few days ago, his mother accidentally sprained her foot when she was alone at home, and his daughter-in-law returned to her mother's house with the child, so he was worried. ,
"Go and bring your wife and children back when you come back. It's been a while since you've been back, so don't annoy your Yue family." Granny Wu glared at her worthless son.

Everything is fine, even if the daughter-in-law is in control, she doesn't bother to care so much.

Bai Jiu doesn't want to stay here any longer, she has other things to do.

But what she didn't expect was that Uncle Wu was actually from the bus station.

"I know mother."

Bai Jiu stood up at this moment, "Since Granny Wu is back, Uncle Wu is back, then I'll go first."

"Girl, don't leave in a hurry, mother-in-law has something to tell you." Granny Wu glanced at her son and dismissed him.

After her son walked away, Granny Wu asked, "Girl, are you selling something?"

Before Bai Jiu could refuse, Granny Wu said again, "Grandma has no bad intentions, but just wants to ask you to buy something."

People who often go to the black market know that big backpack has good things in it.

Bai Jiu was stunned. You know, she didn't have anything in her back basket. Granny Wu would be like this. It seems that she still thinks people of this age too simply.

"You have also seen that the life of the mother-in-law's family is really difficult. The supply in the county has become more and more tight these years. Even if Uncle Wu has a job, it is still very tight to support a large family."

This is not about money, but tickets.

No way, anyone who wants to buy anything now needs a ticket.

Coupled with the shortage of supplies, you have no place to buy them if you have money.

"Mother-in-law." Bai Jiu was a little moved, but she couldn't change things in front of others.

"How about it, mother-in-law, see what you need, and I'll transfer some for you." This is a bit deep.

She came to the county to sell things. She was scared to death before, but now, she certainly doesn't want to miss the opportunity.

she has an idea

"Success, success, success, my daughter's mother-in-law is waiting for you at home, it would be even better if there is fine grain, mother-in-law hasn't eaten fine grain for many years." Granny Wu said to Bai Jiu excitedly.

There was also expectation in her eyes, and her mouth was swallowing, as if what she said was in front of her eyes.

This is her second time selling things, and her understanding of the market is not very thorough. Seeing Granny Wu like this, Bai Jiu actually felt a little unconcerned.

"Okay, then mother-in-law, you can wait for me at home."

After going out, Bai Jiu kept vigilant all the time, she had no choice but to learn a lot from a fall.

If she doesn't take more precautions, she may suffer from this.

Seeing that there was no one behind him and the pedestrians on the road were normal, Bai Jiu went to a deserted place and took out a lot of good things from the space to fill his back basket.

Of course, she also dropped her self-defense weapon, a dagger next to her body.

With her strength, even a mature man would not be able to please her.

After several hours passed, Bai Jiu returned to Granny Wu's house.

As soon as he knocked on the door, the door opened from the inside.

Bai Jiu didn't delay, and walked in quickly.

"Girl, you're finally here, mother-in-law thought she was dreaming today." Seeing the man coming back, Granny Wu felt relieved.

Not long after Bai Jiu left, Granny Wu sighed deeply.

Thinking about it in another place, if this happened to her, I'm afraid she wouldn't come.

How could she not be excited to see the man come back now?

"What's wrong, mother-in-law?" Bai Jiu was a little puzzled, and mother-in-law Wu must have been too excited.

But when I think about my own things, I feel that it should be taken for granted.

"It's okay, it's okay, just come back, just come back, let mother-in-law see what good things you brought." Granny Wu was a little embarrassed to open her mouth to express her thoughts.

This girl is good.

The recognition of Bai Jiu in my heart was once again higher.

Bai Jiu didn't bother, she had been in the county town for a long time, and she had to go back early today.

She still has a lot of things to buy.

"Look, mother-in-law." Bai Jiu took out the things in her back basket, and added some small things in halfway.

Such as bulk dried noodles and so on.

I didn't take anything from the egg, and it was easy to break.

But she took some meat, and it wouldn't hurt to buy more this day.

Besides, people here have the habit of eating wind-blown meat. Most of the meat that can't be eaten at home will be hung up and eaten after air-drying.

She also put some dry goods in it.

Things like mushrooms.

Watching Bai Jiu take out one piece at a time, Granny Wu covered her mouth with her hands, afraid that she would accidentally yell out.

"Girl, mother-in-law wants all these things, so do the math, how much is the total amount." Granny Wu was willing.

Good things are hard to come by, let her come across them now, of course you can't miss them.

So she wants it all.

Bai Jiu originally wanted to sell everything to Granny Wu, and the things he brought out were all very attractive.

Don't be afraid that people will look down on you.

"Okay, [-] catties of rice, [-] catties of flour, [-] catties of meat, [-] catties of dried noodles, and [-] catties of these cornmeal. If you buy dry goods, it's five yuan a pack." It's not cheap for Hyundai to buy this dry goods, but the price-performance ratio In this age, of course, they cannot be counted equally.

So five yuan for almost half a bag of mushrooms is very expensive.

Then he reported the price of each item to Granny Wu, and Bai Jiu calculated the total price after a while.

"Mother-in-law, the total is 195 yuan. Do you think that's right?" She didn't want the ticket either. There are already a lot of tickets that she got today, and she doesn't need tickets at this price.

Granny Wu pinched her fingers and counted. Although her movements were a bit dizzy, her speed was not slow.

"Yes, girl, you are right, you are really smart." After calculating the total price, Granny Wu liked Bai Jiu even more, the little girl is smart.

"Wait, mother-in-law will get you the money."

Soon, Granny Wu came out with twenty cards.

"Girl, next time I have something good to send to my mother-in-law, it will be calculated according to your today's price." Who doesn't like good things, and her family can't afford them.

Although only her son works alone, who made her family rich.

If it weren't for the old man's disappointment, life at home would be easier.

Bai Jiu doesn't know much about the Wu family, otherwise she wouldn't be as surprised as she is now.

"it is good."

Bai Jiu agreed without thinking.

That's what she thought too.

"Then girl, when will you come to see mother-in-law next time?" Granny Wu was not in a hurry to move her things to the kitchen, but instead made an appointment with Bai Jiu for the next meeting.

Bai Jiu thought for a while, there wasn't much work in the brigade recently, most of them were Mao Dong at home, and even if there was work, it wouldn't be her turn.

"Then half a month later." There are a lot of things at home recently. Although she doesn't want to live in the village for a long time, at least she can't leave for a short time.

There are only two ways to leave the countryside, one is to marry someone from the city.

The second is to find a job in the city, and then move the household registration to the city.

Otherwise, the city would not accept rural people into the city.

Looking for a job, she never thought about it.

The days outside are not very long now, it is better to stay in the village, at least it will not be short of food and drink.

But it’s different in the city, where the buttocks are bigger, every household knows about it if there’s any movement.

It's not like in the 21st century, where people live in the same building and don't see each other for ten or eight years.

Half a month is not far from the New Year, and she also needs to go to the city to buy some things for the New Year.

"Success, then half a month." When Granny Wu heard the set date, she thought about it and nodded in agreement.

But Granny Wu also has her own thoughts.

The price of her food is indeed high, but who can let people have enough food.

She changed hands again, and she didn't make much money, but she didn't lose her mouth either.

After taking the money, Bai Jiu left Wu's house and made an appointment to come back in half a month.

After entering the main road, Bai Jiu started to buy the things she was going to bring back today.

There is no shortage of food at home, but there are still fewer household items.

Cotton still needs to be bought, but it is available in the space, so she doesn't need to buy it, but she plans to go shopping for some cloth from this era.

There really isn't enough stuff at home.

Although the children are still young, they can live with her, but in two years, they will no longer be able to live together when the children are older. She has no plan to move out of the village now, so she has to prepare for the next few years.

Also, the old people next door, winter is coming, but they are still wearing single clothes.

It's not her mother, but she knows that these old people will be of great use to the country in the future.

Although they are still working down there now, they will be able to contribute to the country in another two years.

So within two years, she plans to protect these few old people in her village.

The things for them must not be new, so she is going to find a place that sells second-hand clothes and quilts.

Here they are, these old ones are no better.

After a busy meal, the sun also set to the west.

When Bai Jiu went to a place where no one was around, she put all the things in the basket into the space, and then hurried to the village.

Fortunately, she didn't meet anyone when she came back, so she went straight into the house.

The children haven't come back yet, presumably they are still at Aunt Peng's house, and she is not in a hurry when she knows where the children are.

Take out the things in the space and add some things to the home.

Also brought out some cooked food.

After a tiring day, she plans to reward herself and her children.

Also send some to Aunt Peng.

 It’s important to move tickets, collect and run, and follow-up reading is also very important. Don’t keep books, everyone, read more.

  Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a reward, ask for a collection, thank you
