cross the little daughter-in-law

Chapter 32

After tidying up, He Beichen helped Gu Maimai carry the baskets to the hospital.

Gu Maimai thought about how to solve the problem of exchanging fine grains for coarse grains, after all, she had to solve the problem of food and clothing. "Big brother, do you know where I can replace these grains with coarse grains?"

No one wants fine grains these days, only coarse grains can satisfy one's appetite.

She switched to coarse grains and handed them over to the canteen of the hospital, which was supposed to give her enough to eat.

"I know a place where we can try it, but there are not many people who change fine grains, so we can't change them right away."

"Okay, if I know where it is, I can wait there tomorrow." Thinking that she is recuperating in the hospital now, there is nothing to do.

"Let's go."

Then He Beichen led her into an alley, and walked into a family.

In broad daylight, this house is also locked.

In this year and month, there is nothing in every family, the public security is good, and the people are simple, so basically everyone does not close their doors. It is still rare to see such a tight lock.

He Beichen knocked on the door, and a voice came from inside. "Who is it?"

"Look for Mrs. He." He Beichen said.

Someone hurriedly opened the door, and a middle-aged woman with her hair in a bun and dressed in blue came out. "It's Beichen, come in quickly. What's the matter today, see if I can help you."

"Sangu, this little sister wants to exchange fine grains for some coarse grains with you." He Beichen took out the grains and showed it to He Sangu.

Sangu He is the aunt of He Beichen's relative's family, and she doesn't have five clothes.I usually do some small business secretly, so I am very enthusiastic.

Originally, she hated He Mifu's family because they were poor and lazy, but He Beichen was an exception.

Sangu He looked at the fine grains. "So much fine grain, where did it come from?"

She looked Gu Maimai up and down, as if looking at a thief.Look at this dress, it doesn't look like someone who can afford fine grains.

Gu Maimai could tell the meaning from the other person's expression. "Of course it belongs to my own family, otherwise where could it come from."

He Beichen asked directly. "Can I change it?"

Sangu He is just a surreptitious little businessman. She is speculative herself, so how can she control others? "It can be exchanged. I have a few women here who come to exchange fine grains on a regular basis, but the demand for fine grains is really not high. I am still in danger. If someone really finds out, I will be arrested." Those caught in it will be paraded through the streets."

Gu Maimai understands the meaning of pulling my wife, and she just wants to benefit. "Ma'am, just tell me, how much coarse grain can I exchange for three catties of fine grain?"

"More than three catties of fine grains can be exchanged for twelve catties of coarse grains. Do you think it's okay? If it's okay, I'll exchange it for you."

"Third Aunt, it's too much food to deduct more than two catties." He Beichen said in disbelief.

"Then I can't help it. This is what I earn." Sangu He said with only interest in her eyes.

Gu Mai bargained for a while. "There should be less than four catties of fine grains here, but three catties and five taels are definitely available. I want to exchange 13 catties of coarse grains, is that okay?"

He Sangu picked up the pocket and weighed it, and it really was about three catties and six taels tall. "Okay, I'll change it for you because you're a child. But the thirteen catties of coarse grains are 9 catties of cornmeal and 4 catties of sorghum rice."

"Okay." Gu Maimai readily agreed.
