Chapter 13: Budgeting



The stall owner saw two cabbages in the basket she had placed on the ground and asked, "How much are these two cabbages?"

"Seven cents." Yan Funing said honestly.

"This slab of pork ribs is ten cents." The stall owner was afraid she wouldn't want it, so he hurriedly said, "I see your backpack is not big, so I'll cut the ribs in half and put them in the backpack."
