Chapter 22 Buying Food
Out of the grocery store, Bai Xuening roughly calculated her small fortune. Before, she spent 8 Wen for meals, 40 Wen for eggs, 112 Wen for spices, 50 Wen for coarse salt, and 12 Wen for soy sauce and vinegar. It took 222 Wen, 900 Wen, and now only 678 Wen is left.

Yu He kept clamoring for meat, so they went straight to the meat vendor after buying the condiments and tasting wine.

These small vendors who came to the town to go to the market usually have to go home in the afternoon, so almost all the stalls at this point have been closed.

"Uncle, is there any meat?"

The uncle said embarrassingly, "Little lady, the lean meat is gone, but there are still three catties of fat meat and a pair of pig bones!"

When Yuhe heard that the lean meat was gone, a look of disappointment flashed across her face, but fortunately, the uncle said that there was still fat, so the disappointment on her face soon disappeared, and the fat was quite delicious!

"I want the three catties of fat meat and bones!" Bai Xuening read in time-traveling novels before that no one wants pigs in the water, so they can pick them up casually or give them as cheap gifts. Bai Xuening specially observed in front of the meat stall , Did not find the pig into the water at all.

Should I say that novels are all lies, or should I say that she is unlucky?
Soon, the uncle wrapped the meat for her and handed it to her together with the bones, "Little lady, one catty of fat meat costs 25 Wen, and three catties totals 75 Wen. This pair of bones will be my gift to you!"

"Okay, thank you!" Bai Xuening finally regained her balance in her heart, "There is no free pig offal here, and pig bones are pretty good too. Pork ribs are a good thing in the 21st century, and they are more expensive than meat. Besides, the two babies need to be supplemented! "

After buying so many things, Bai Xuening found that she really couldn't carry them on her back. Firstly, the eggs are afraid of breaking when put together with these things. Secondly, these things are actually quite heavy. Thirdly, she has been working all day. Yes, really tired!

"Yuqing, if we want to go back, do you know where to buy a car? Or let's rent a car ourselves!"

Yuqing rubbed his forehead, looking like a little adult, "Mother, are you going back? But we haven't bought food yet, this is the most important thing, otherwise we will be hungry!"

"Of course we have to buy food. Mother means to find a car first, put the things in the car, and then we go to buy food!"

"I know where Grandpa Bai's ox cart is. He brings people to town every morning and brings people back in the afternoon. We should be able to catch up!"

"Then you lead the way!"

"Ok!"

Soon, Yuqing took Bai Xuening to find the place where the car was built, and saw a thin old man in his early 50s, smoking a bag of dry tobacco, waiting for someone, at this time there were already several people working on his ox cart up.

"Grandpa Bai!" Yuqing and Yuhe said together.

When the old man saw Yuqing, he greeted with a smile, "It's Yuqing!"

"Grandpa, can we be your ox cart and go back?" Yuqing had a sweet smile on her face.

"Yes, of course the two of you can, but she can't!" She was naturally referring to Bai Xuening.

Yuqing ran over, grabbed his arm and acted like a spoiled child, "Grandpa, please, let my mother be your car and go home together!"

The old man picked up the dry cigarette again and took a puff, then reluctantly said, "She can take a car, she must pay!"

Bai Xuening hurriedly spoke up, "Don't worry, I won't lose any money, and I will also give the car money for the two children!"
