Chapter 27
After Shen Yao's wedding leave ended, he went back to work. Chen Guifeng also had to go to work, and Shen Shun had to go to school, so Ye Fuyue was the only one left at home.
Although Chen Yao told Ye Fuyue not to do anything at home, Ye Fuyue was an idle person after all, and she was idle at home anyway, so she washed the clothes and cleaned the house.
After finishing all this, Ye Fuyue began to draw her furniture design.
In her previous life, Ye Fuyue had always wanted to own a house. She followed many home bloggers and imagined how she would decorate her own house if she ever owned one. Therefore, Ye Fuyue was quite adept at drawing furniture designs.
She drew a few preliminary sketches and then went out to buy vegetables at the supply and marketing cooperative.
Everyone will come back to eat at noon. Since Ye Fuyue is free at home and has some free time at noon, she plans to make lunch for everyone.
After getting married, Shen Yao did hand over all the money, tickets and wages he had saved.
Although Shen Yao's current salary was high, he had only been promoted last year. Coupled with the wedding and the fact that he had spent a lot of money on buying things for her, Shen Yao didn't have much left in savings, only about two hundred yuan.
Chen Yao also had to pay 15 yuan a month for household expenses to Chen Guifeng. Ye Fuyue had no objection to this.
The two of them eat and live at home. Today, Ye Fuyue went out to buy some vegetables. Usually, Chen Guifeng is fully responsible for buying vegetables and cooking. It is impossible for Shen Yao to work and get married and still rely on Chen Guifeng's salary to support the whole family.
What's more, Chen Guifeng, her mother-in-law, is a nice person, so Ye Fuyue doesn't mind paying the household allowance.
When Ye Fuyue arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative with a basket, she found that she was too late and many vegetables were gone.
Ye Fuyue originally wanted to buy some meat, but there was none left.
The salesperson impatiently said to her, "Don't you know how scarce meat is? You come so late and still expect to buy meat. This is your first time buying meat at the supply and marketing cooperative."
Although Ye Fuyue was dissatisfied with the salesperson's attitude, she also knew that this was the attitude of salespeople in this era.
Ever since she came here, she has never taken care of the shopping and cooking. Today is her first time to come to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy meat.
Ye Fuyue looked at the long line next to her, not knowing what they were buying, so she casually asked the salesperson, "Comrade, what are they queuing up over there to buy?"
The salesperson rolled her eyes and ignored her.
"Fuyue?"
Ye Fuyue heard someone calling her name, looked around, and saw Yu Tong coming from behind the counter.
Ye Fuyue immediately smiled brightly.
How could she forget that Yu Tong worked in the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Yu Tong." Ye Fuyue said with a smile.
"What are you here to buy?" Yu Tong asked.
"I came to buy vegetables, but I came too late. Many things are gone, including the meat," said Ye Fuyue.
"For meat, you really have to come early. Every time the meat is taken out, it is snatched up in a few minutes. But I'm here. Next time you want to buy meat, tell me in advance and I'll save it for you." Yu Tong said.
"Okay!" Ye Fuyue agreed with a smile, "Thank you so much for troubling you."
"Why are you being polite to me? It would be too distant if you were polite to me. You are my cousin's wife now. Even if you didn't marry my cousin, you saved me. Just because of this relationship, you can't be polite to me." Yu Tong said.
"Yeah." Ye Fuyue agreed with a smile. She pointed to the long line over there and asked, "What are they queuing up to buy over there?"
"Buy spareribs." Yu Tong said.
"There's such a long queue just to buy spare ribs!" Ye Fuyue sighed.
"Since we didn't buy any meat, it would be nice if we could buy some ribs to take back." Yu Tong said.
People of this generation are less likely to eat fat and their favorite is fatty pork belly, while spare ribs are not very popular. But if you can't buy pork belly, having spare ribs is not bad.
"Do you want spare ribs? No need to queue, I'll buy them for you directly." Yu Tong asked.
"OK!"
"How much do you want? You need a ticket to buy spareribs, 54 cents a pound."
Ye Fuyue estimated the number of people in her family and the money she had in her mind, and said, "I want one and a half pounds."
Although each person can only eat a few pieces of the one and a half kilograms of ribs, the family savings are not much, so it is better to save money for now.
"Okay, wait for me here."
Afterwards, in full view of everyone, Yu Tong went directly to the person selling ribs and weighed out a pound and a half of ribs, and handed them to Ye Fuyue on the spot.
Those who were queuing up were so jealous that their eyes turned red, but there was nothing they could do.
This is how it is in this era. Having acquaintances makes things easier. It can save a lot of time, avoid a lot of trouble, and obtain more resources.
Ye Fuyue gave the ticket and money to Yu Tong, and put the ribs into the bamboo basket she was carrying.
With the spare ribs, Ye Fuyue planned to make winter melon, corn and spare ribs soup to clear away heat and relieve summer heat.
She also bought winter melon and corn from Yu Tong.
"Next time you come to the supply and marketing cooperative, if I'm there, just come to me directly. Don't look for those people. Everyone's eyes are in the sky." Yu Tong gestured to the salesperson at the beginning.
Ye Fuyue smiled: "Okay."
They are all quite clear about their attitudes.
"How have you been lately?" After buying groceries, Ye Fuyue and Yu Tong started chatting.
"Same as always. But after what happened last time, I don't dare to take shortcuts after get off work. I just go where there are more people." Yu Tong said.
Ye Fuyue nodded: "This is safer."
"Yu Tong."
A male comrade walked into the supply and marketing cooperative and walked straight towards Yu Tong.
When Yu Tong looked up and saw the gay man, she couldn't hide the shyness and happiness on her face.
She greeted excitedly but reservedly: "Yang Shucong."
Ye Fuyue glanced at the tall, thin, fair-skinned man, then moved closer to Yu Tong and asked her in a low voice, "Who is he?"
"Yang Shucong, a school teacher."
"Are you two dating?"
Yu Tong's expression became more and more shy, and she nodded shyly: "Yeah."
"Congratulations!" Ye Fuyue said, "He's quite good-looking."
"I was just fascinated by his looks." Yu Tong said honestly.
Yang Shucong walked up to them, and Ye Fuyue and Yu Tong stopped their whispered conversation.
Yang Shucong saw that there were other people here with Yu Tong, so he said, "I'm going to buy some things over there and come back to see you later."
"good."
Yang Shucong walked away, but Yu Tong kept staring at his figure in fascination.
Ye Fuyue looked at her and smiled: "Did you two meet through a blind date?"
"Where can I find a gay man with such good conditions for a blind date?" Yu Tong said without hesitation.
After saying this, she and Ye Fuyue fell silent at the same time, both noticing the strangeness in these words.
Yu Tong quickly added, "Not everyone is as lucky as you to meet a gay man as outstanding and good-looking as my cousin. Anyway, I don't have your luck."
Ye Fuyue:...Well, that sounds much better.
