[Space + Stockpiling + Modern-to-Ancient Time Travel + Natural Disasters + Famine Escape]
Qian Chunhua, who had been single all her life, suddenly time-traveled—bringing along a space full ...
After shopping, she actually spent three taels of silver.
Qingfeng didn't understand the value of silver. When he saw his mother bought so much food for him, his little face was filled with excitement and joy, and he even skipped and jumped when he walked.
Qian Chunhua didn't care about the wasted silver. This money was the compensation Zhao Yongqiang gave her yesterday. Apart from the eight taels used for building the house, she still had seven taels left.
She planned to spend all the money. After all, it was unexpected money and there was no point in wasting it.
With this idea in mind, Qian Chunhua walked into the pastry shop in the county town, intending to prepare some delicious snacks for the children at home again.
"Auntie, welcome!" The shop assistant greeted Qian Chunhua warmly as he saw her come in.
Qian Chunhua was slightly stunned, and looked down at his clothes - he was still wearing the same clothes full of patches.
With such attire, it's clear that she doesn't look like someone who can afford expensive pastries.
However, she was somewhat surprised by the guy's enthusiastic attitude.
The waiter started to introduce the cakes in the store to Qian Chunhua with a smile on his face: "Auntie, this is our signature cake - Taoyi Pastry.
Look, the crust is crispy and delicious, and the filling is soft and delicate, with an excellent taste. "
Listening to the waiter's description, Qian Chunhua couldn't help but salivate over the Taoxi Pastry. She asked curiously, "How much is this Taoxi Pastry?"
"Fifty cents a pound." The waiter answered very straightforwardly.
Qian Chunhua nodded slightly, thinking to himself: The price of this Taoxi Su is even more expensive than meat.
At this time, Xiao Qingfeng on the side couldn't help but reveal a look of desire, but he quickly sucked the saliva away, for fear of being discovered by Qian Chunhua.
Seeing this, Qian Chunhua's heart softened and she decided to buy more. So she said, "Give me ten kilograms."
"Ten pounds?" The waiter looked at Qian Chunhua in surprise. He didn't expect that this seemingly poor woman would want so many Taoqi pastries at once.
He quickly regained his warm smile, secretly sighing in his heart: You really can't judge a person by his appearance!
Qian Chunhua then instructed: "Help me divide these Taoxi cakes into twenty portions, each containing half a pound."
She planned to take out only one portion for the children each time and store the rest in the space.
After all, everyone is rushing to buy food now, so it’s not a bad idea to stock up on some delicious snacks for the kids.
"Yes!" the waiter responded enthusiastically.
They always try their best to meet customers' needs, especially since they are not special requirements.
Qian Chunhua watched the waiter busy packing food for her, and took the opportunity to look around the store.
Some snacks looked very tempting. She couldn't help but ask, "This... this, and that, how much is each one pound?"
The clerk put down his work and began to introduce the goods with a smile on his face: "This one is 20 wen per jin, this one is 35 wen per jin, and that one is 30 wen per jin."
Qian Chunhua waved his hand generously and decided to buy ten kilograms of each, dividing it into twenty portions, each weighing half a kilogram.
Following the enthusiastic recommendation of the clerk, Qian Chunhua continued shopping, buying and buying, until she had spent all the four taels of silver that Zhao Yongqiang had compensated her with yesterday.
While the waiter was busy packing cakes for him, Qian Chunhua started chatting with him and tried to find out the news that interested him.
"Why are the streets so quiet today?" Qian Chunhua deliberately started the topic in a casual tone.
The clerk sighed and said, "It's not just today, it's been like this for the past few days. There's no one on the street, and our store is also very quiet."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the guy realized that he might have said too much, so he quickly closed his mouth with a hint of panic on his face.
Qian Chunhua seemed not to hear and continued to ask: "What's going on? Doesn't everyone have money to buy things?"
Seeing that the customer seemed not to have heard his gaffe, the waiter breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "Well, I heard that the roads outside are in chaos, and everyone is busy storing food and firewood. Who has the leisure to wander around the streets?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the guy regretted it so much that he wanted to slap himself twice.
Qian Chunhua bit her lower lip tightly and tried hard to hold back her smile. This guy is really cute.
"Auntie, you bought so many pastries. Are you planning to give them away as gifts?" The waiter quickly changed the subject, hoping to get rid of the previous embarrassment.
Qian Chunhua was slightly stunned, then nodded and answered smoothly: "Yes."
