"Okay, I understand." Jiang Anxia nodded.

He stood there watching as Gu Yan's men moved all the supplies from the thatched hut onto a wooden cart.

Then I watched their backs recede into the distance.

After all the figures had disappeared from sight, Jiang Anxia ran into the thatched hut and entered the space.

When she reappeared, she was once again a fresh-faced young girl.

Jiang Anxia planned to go to the town's scrap metal recycling station to try and find something good, just like in the novels.

I walked forward with light steps.

When Jiang Anxia arrived at the entrance of the scrap yard, an old man was lying in a rocking chair, holding a palm-leaf fan and swaying it back and forth.

"Grandpa." Jiang Anxia stood in front of the old man, blocking the sunlight from his eyes.

The old man, whose sunlight had been blocked, opened his cloudy eyes. "What is it?"

"I'd like to find some old newspapers." Jiang Anxia immediately explained her purpose and took out a few White Rabbit milk candies from her pocket and placed them on the stool next to the old man.

The old man naturally saw Jiang Anxia's actions, and he waved his hand, indicating that she could go in.

"Don't take what you shouldn't take."

“Okay, sir.” Jiang Anxia nodded knowingly and then walked into the storeroom.

Once inside, Jiang Anxia realized that the warehouse was quite large.

Jiang Anxia looked around and walked to a pile of newspapers; she squatted down and flipped through them, and surprisingly found several books needed for the college entrance examination.

After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Anxia decided to pick it up anyway, just in case it might come in handy later!

Picking up the book and placing it in a conspicuous spot, Jiang Anxia then went to look around and saw a piece of sandalwood casually tossed aside.

This broke Jiang Anxia's heart; such precious wood! And it was just left here like this.

Ah! My heart aches for you!!!

Jiang Anxia quickly picked it up, put it together with the book she had just read, and then turned to look at other things.

Jiang Anxia discovered that there seemed to be quite a few good things in this area where the furniture was stored!

It wasn't anything too good, but after picking and choosing, Jiang Anxia still managed to find a few valuable items.

Jiang Anxia put them all into her spatial storage. It wasn't that she didn't want to ask the old man for the bill; it was just that it was inconvenient to take these things out.

After searching for everything, Jiang Anxia picked up the book and sandalwood that were placed aside and headed towards the exit. Just as she was about to reach the exit, Jiang Anxia stared in shock at a makeup box.

She quickly walked over, tossed the item into her spatial storage, and then walked out as if nothing had happened.

"Grandpa, let me calculate it!" Jiang Anxia placed the items in her hands in front of the old man one by one.

The old man picked up the scale placed to the side and weighed each item one by one.

"These books cost two cents, and this piece of wood, you can give me one cent." As he spoke, the old man gave the piece of wood a disdainful look.

What kind of taste does this little girl have? She actually took a liking to such a piece of wood.

"Okay, thank you, sir. Goodbye, sir." Jiang Anxia quickly took out the money and handed it to the old man, then bent down to pick up the things on the ground and left.

"Hmm." The old man gave a soft "hmm," then closed his eyes again, the rocking chair swaying back and forth.

In a secluded corner, Jiang Anxia put everything she was carrying into her spatial storage. When she checked the time, it was already noon, so she headed towards the state-run restaurant.

She's been here for so long but has never been to a state-run restaurant. Perfect timing, she'll go today.

Jiang Anxia strolled along leisurely, not in a hurry, since there was still plenty of time before she had to go back.

After walking for a few minutes, Jiang Anxia saw a state-run restaurant, a unique feature of this era. There was a sign at the entrance with the four characters "State-run Restaurant" written on it.

She stood there for a moment, then started walking inside.

Standing at the ordering area, Jiang Anxia looked at today's menu, which included braised pork, dry-fried fish, Mapo tofu, and stir-fried vegetables.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Anxia ordered a braised pork and stir-fried vegetables, plus a serving of rice.

Since she was alone, she didn't order too much.

After paying the fare, Jiang Anxia found a secluded spot to sit down and wait for her meal.

While waiting, Jiang Anxia looked around. There were quite a few people here, and not many empty seats.

Most importantly, Jiang Anxia also saw Tian Wenjia and the other educated youth.

She glanced at it once and then looked away, not looking at it again.

Soon, the waiter called Jiang Anxia's number, and she walked over and picked up her food.

Jiang Anxia couldn't help but sigh, "This is indeed a characteristic of this era. The portion is generous, and it looks delicious just from the appearance."

In an instant, Jiang Anxia's appetite was whetted.

I picked up my chopsticks and took a piece of braised pork to try.

In an instant, Jiang Anxia was captivated by the braised pork. It was so delicious that it was rich but not greasy, fragrant, and tender.

She ate even better than she did in her previous life.

Jiang Anxia decided to order another portion to take home for her parents to try as well.

Lost in thought, Jiang Anxia finished her meal without realizing it, and was shocked when she came to her senses.

Soon, she stopped caring. Since she wouldn't gain weight anyway, she could eat whatever she wanted.

Before leaving, Jiang Anxia packed twenty steamed buns and two servings of braised pork.

Now she's going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things, and it will be about time by then.

When Jiang Anxia arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, there weren't many people inside, just a few here and there.

Maybe it's because it's afternoon!

She stood in front of a counter and looked around.

"Sister, could you please weigh out a pound of walnut shortbread for me?" Jiang Anxia looked around for a while, deciding that this was the only item she wanted to buy.
