Just take the issued documents and come to get the photos when the time comes.

They spent quite a bit of time taking pictures, and now it was already noon.

Several people planned to go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner first.

Jiang Mengxue didn't know what shift Jiang Dongmei was working today, so she planned to go see her after dinner.

Before coming, Jiang Mengxue picked a lot of vegetables and fresh fruits.

Jiang Dongmei and her family live in the city, so if they go shopping for groceries a night late every day, the food will no longer be fresh.

Besides, how could the fruits and vegetables sold in other places be as good as those grown by Jiang Mengxue herself?

Jiang Mengxue was curious before, so she asked Gu Qingbei to buy a watermelon to try.

To be honest, after eating the watermelons grown in my own space and backyard, I really can't eat those outside.

Now is the time when fresh vegetables are available in large quantities.

Not to mention places like state-owned restaurants, which have everything they need.

The five of them ordered two meat dishes, two vegetable dishes, a soup, and a dozen large steamed buns.

Gu Qingbei and Gu Zhenjiang had finished most of the meal, but it looked like they were still not very full.

But I didn’t order anything else. Five or six dollars for a meal was already a lot.

Generally, people who come to eat at state-owned restaurants are either on business trips or need to treat friends or leaders to a meal.

If a formal dinner is not necessary, people will not go to state-owned restaurants. They will buy food and cook at home. The food is delicious and cost-effective.

After leaving the child in the care of three elders, Jiang Mengxue and Gu Qingbei rode two bicycles to the supply and marketing cooperative. Gu Qingbei's bicycle had a frame and was filled with vegetables and fruits.

The sun is still very strong outside, and I don’t want to walk around outside with my calligraphy.

Let them find a cool place first.

They go take a look and come back, and then they can go home.

Whether it is the supply and marketing cooperative in the commune or in the county town, they will soon be busy.

Especially at those stalls selling meat, many people in the queue come to line up before dawn.

As for why they are all concentrated in this period?

That’s because the autumn harvest is not far away.

Everyone knows that autumn harvest is tiring. It is no exaggeration to say that it is exhausting.

Of course, you have to eat something good to replenish your body during that period.

Even chicken farmers haven't gone to the purchasing station to sell eggs for a while, and they keep them for their own consumption during the autumn harvest.

But Jiang Mengxue and her friends arrived very late, and the meat stall usually sells out within an hour or two in the morning.

When they arrived, there wasn't a single piece of meat to be seen.

But fortunately, they didn't come here for this.

There were a few people buying things in the supply and marketing cooperative, but they didn't seem to be in a hurry.

People who work come here to buy things in the morning and evening, and people who don’t work get up early, so compared to the morning and evening time periods, the daytime is still quite relaxing, of course excluding holidays and weekends.

Jiang Dongmei is almost four months pregnant.

Everyone is willing to take care of her, and as long as they are not too busy, she basically doesn't have to do anything.

So she is now sitting at the counter sewing shoe soles. You can tell from the size that they are for Xiaowei.

"Sister, can you come out for a while?"

Jiang Dongmei was so happy when she saw that it was her sister who came.

"When I'm free, I'm free. Sister Wang, please keep an eye on me. My sister is here. I'll be back soon."

Jiang Dongmei called out to the older sister who was serving things to the guests.

"Hey, go ahead."

The sales clerks usually have a good relationship with each other. If anyone has something urgent, they will ask everyone for help. After all, everyone has urgent matters.

There are only a few people in their supply and marketing cooperative. If the relationship becomes strained, it will be difficult to ask for leave if something happens in the future. Why bother?

Jiang Dongmei looked at her sister whose complexion was getting better and better, and she knew at a glance that she had not wasted her time during the confinement period.

He asked, "Why are you here today? Is there something going on at home?"

After all, the child is only one month old, and Jiang Mengxue would not come out unless it is something important.

Jiang Mengxue pointed to the basket hanging next to the back seat of the car, which was full of various vegetables.

Worried that the car would wilt in the sun along the way, Jiang Mengxue had covered the back seat with a wet sack.

Jiang Dongmei opened it and thought it was too exaggerated.

There are only three people in her family, and they probably can’t finish it in a month.

"Why do you need to bring so much? Just keep it for your family."

"Oh, how can we eat all the food we grow at home? If it weren't so far away, we could pick it for you every day. If you're free now, we'll help you take it home. Otherwise, you won't be able to get back home by yourself at night."

Jiang Dongmei readily agreed. Chen Hua was very busy during this period and had no time to pick her up. It was really inconvenient for her to pick up Xiaowei from school on the way home from work.

Jiang Dongmei's family lives not far from here.

Jiang Mengxue rode a bike with Jiang Dongmei, while Gu Qingbei rode a bike by himself.

It only takes seven or eight minutes to get there, and the police station is not far away.

Jiang Mengxue and her mother had come here once before, but Xiaowei was home alone that time, so they didn’t stay long.

This time I finally got a good look at this small courtyard.

Actually, there is nothing special about it, just three main rooms and a kitchen.

Xiaowei is still young, so he sleeps with his parents, and the other room is used to store some miscellaneous items.

Jiang Dongmei wanted to cut the watermelon they brought and give it to them.

But Jiang Mengxue stopped him and took two small ones, not too big or too small, not much.

"No, there's plenty at home. I planted several this year, and I can't finish them all every day."

Seeing that this place was relatively close to the Public Security Bureau, Gu Qingbei told Jiang Mengxue and went there, saying that he was going to see Liu Yang and brought two for him.

Jiang Dongmei was picking up the vegetables, planning to send some to his parents and eldest brother's house in the evening after Chen Hua got off work, since they couldn't finish them at home anyway.
