The Educated Youth's Pregnant Wife: The Stern Officer's Devotion After Conceiving

Song Zhi, who escaped from a mental hospital, was hit by a truck and sent back twenty-five years.

In her previous life, Song Zhi was blind and foolish, wholeheartedly wanting to marry Tang Junhe...

Chapter 37 Spending Money Like Water

"Okay." Song Zhi originally wanted to discuss this matter with Nie Jinmei, but he almost forgot about it because of the commotion just now.

The two agreed on a time before Nie Jinmei returned to the dormitory.

Song Zhi went to wash up early.

While lying in bed, she took out a small mirror on a whim and looked at herself. Seeing her face was obviously thinner, she sighed silently: "It's only been two days since I came here, and her chin has become pointed. She really can't stand the hardship."

The next day, early in the morning, Nie Jinmei and Song Zhi agreed to walk to the town together, carrying bamboo baskets.

The village was fifteen kilometers away from the town, and it took the two of them three or four hours to get there.

When they arrived in town, both of them were exhausted and out of breath, but when they thought about being able to buy what they needed right away, they both looked excited.

The town is very lively, especially in front of various agricultural and sideline food stores, where there are a lot of people.

Everyone is off today and is taking this opportunity to go shopping, resulting in long queues in front of most stores.

There was also a long queue in front of the supply and marketing cooperative. Song Zhi quickly pulled Nie Jinmei over and walked quickly to the end of the queue.

"There are too many people here." Nie Jinmei sighed with a sad face as she looked at the long queue in front of her that took a long time to move.

Song Zhi comforted him, "We will be here soon."

She was also anxious. It would take three or four hours to walk back to the village. If she delayed any longer, it would be disastrous if she couldn't get back before dark.

After waiting in line for more than an hour, it was finally their turn.

"What would you like to order?" asked the salesperson.

"We want a pot." Song Zhi replied quickly.

Hearing that the two little girls actually wanted to buy a pot, the salesperson at the supply and marketing cooperative looked up at them in surprise.

Seeing that they were dressed decently and wore bright hair ornaments, I immediately guessed that they were probably educated youth who had just gone to the countryside a few days ago.

Most of these educated youth came from big cities, so their conditions were naturally better than others.

"That's perfect. There's only one left. Did you bring your industrial ticket?" the salesperson asked.

"I brought it." Song Zhi quickly took out the ten industrial tickets that he and Nie Jinmei had put together and handed them over.

Seeing the two little girls easily take out ten industrial tickets, the salesperson looked at them again.

“Are these enough tickets?”

Song Zhi asked. In order to prevent accidents, she carried two extra bills in her wallet so that she could make up for it if it was not enough.

"That's enough." The salesperson nodded.

Song Zhi and Nie Jinmei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly handed over a reunion card.

Iron pots are very expensive and there are few of them. This pot has been in the supply and marketing cooperative for some time, but unexpectedly, it was finally bought by two little girls.

The salesperson handed them the iron pot tied with a hemp rope and asked with a smile, "Do you need anything else?"

The people queuing around saw the two little girls buying an iron pot, and they all looked at them with envy.

They are a whole family sharing one iron pot.

"We also need some rice vinegar and soy sauce." Song Zhi replied.

"How much?" the salesperson asked softly with a smile on her face.

"I need one bottle each of rice vinegar and soy sauce, one jin of salt, and five jin of refined rice."

Song Zhi stretched his neck to look at the dazzling array of items on the counter behind the salesperson, estimated the amount of money he had in his pocket, thought for a moment, and said, "I want another five catties of soybean oil."

After saying that, Song Zhi handed over two five-jin oil and grain coupons and two one-jin grain coupons.

The salesperson took out a small notebook and wrote down these things one by one, and asked another person to prepare them, while she counted the oil and grain coupons handed over by Song Zhi.

"Vinegar is 18 cents, soy sauce is 80 cents, soybean oil is 82 cents per pound, salt is 15 cents per pound, and refined rice is 20 cents per pound. The total is 6.23 yuan."

The salesperson counted the items and looked at Song Zhi.

Song Zhi was not vague and handed over the money that had been ordered long ago.

After handing the item over, the salesperson looked at the person in line behind him and called the next person forward.

"Next."

"I haven't bought it yet!" Nie Jinmei said quickly.

Hearing this, the salesperson looked at her in surprise again.

She originally thought that the two little girls were from the same family.

"I also want five pounds of refined rice, a can of malted milk, and two pounds of crispy candies."

Song Zhi had already bought the seasonings, so she had to buy some snacks.

A can of malted milk costs two reunion tickets. Song Zhi looked at Nie Jinmei in surprise. He didn't expect that she was a small rich woman.

Crispy candies are not cheap either. Others buy them by the piece, unlike Nie Jinmei who buys two kilograms at a time.

"Shredded candy is 1.3 yuan per pound, malted milk is 20 yuan, and polished rice is 0.2 yuan per pound. The total is 23.6 yuan."

The salesperson was calculating the price while looking at the tall and strong girl in front of him.

More than twenty yuan is almost her monthly salary.

Nie Jinmei paid the money readily.

After buying a bunch of things at the supply and marketing cooperative, the two female educated youth went to the agricultural and sideline products store.

There were still a lot of people outside the agricultural and sideline products store, and the two of them waited in line for more than half an hour.

"What should we buy later?" Nie Jinmei asked when it was almost their turn.

Song Zhi stood on tiptoe and looked at the things in the store.

"You need to buy some pork, eggs, and vegetables, and the rest will depend on the situation."

Song Zhi listed a few of the things she wanted most. In fact, she didn't have to buy these things at all, after all, they were all available in her space supermarket, but she couldn't just take them out and eat them without any reason. So she just bought a little of these things to cover her up.

"Okay." Nie Jinmei took note of it secretly.

As they were talking, the person in front of them had already finished buying things and left.
