Volume 1 Chapter 507 The Grocery Store is Full
But Sheng Wanyan had already told everyone in the family that she could only eat two candies a week.
Two pastries a week, no other snacks allowed except fruits.
Gu Tingxiao didn't dare to disobey his wife. Grandpa Sheng, grandma Sheng and even mother Sheng all knew that she had a toothache, and they didn't dare to give her food.
It sounds beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
I could only look but not eat, and in the end I couldn't help crying and left.
"Dear neighbors, thank you for coming today. I hope you will take good care of us in the future."
Gu's mother stood at the door with a loudspeaker and said a few words. There should be a sense of ceremony.
"good!"
"Today is the opening day of the grocery store. Customers who come to buy things today and tomorrow will get an 8.8% discount."
"Today's purchase is not only 20% off, but also buy ten get one free!"
Everyone got excited when they heard this. Not only was there a discount on the item, but they also gave something away for free!
“Is this true or false?”
"Yeah! Really buy ten get one free? Anything?"
"Yes! Really!"
As soon as Sheng's mother said this, everyone wanted to rush in and choose things immediately. No one wanted to miss such a good opportunity.
"Hurry, hurry, open the door!"
"Yes! Let's go in and take a closer look."
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up."
Upon hearing this, Mother Sheng did not delay and directly opened the door for everyone to go in and buy. As soon as they entered, Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng were waiting.
"Everyone, put your baskets and bags on the cabinet over there."
"There are baskets here for everyone to put their things in, just go and get them yourself!"
The guests who came in were a little unhappy about this rule, but when they looked up and saw the words on the banner, they were instantly convinced.
Of course, there are also those who are unwilling to let go, but Sheng Wanyan has explained it to them, so there is no need to do business with such people.
After all, everyone knows that there is no need to earn this money.
"Why don't you bring your own basket in?"
"Everyone, this place is not like the supply and marketing cooperative where the salesperson will get the things for you."
"We let you guys choose here, so come and have fun shopping together."
"If we cooperate with each other and understand each other, everyone will be happy, don't you think?"
Mother Sheng was the best at handling these matters, and she calmed down those ladies with just a few words.
Everyone thought it made sense. After all, it’s different to feel the joy of shopping by yourself.
"rational!"
"Yes! After all, everyone is afraid of being robbed."
Everyone put their baskets and bags into the grid and went shopping with the baskets from the grocery store.
It feels so good to be able to choose, inspect and weigh the goods by yourself.
This is completely incomparable to looking at the salesperson's face at the supply and marketing cooperative.
Grandpa Sheng and grandma Sheng acted as guides, and when everyone didn’t know where something was, they would go and tell them.
"We also have meat and vegetables for sale."
"Yes, it will be very convenient in the future. I don't have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative, and most importantly, I don't need a ticket."
"That's right, you don't need a ticket to buy this."
Everyone was so happy to know that they didn't need tickets. Tickets are the most important thing these days.
Without tickets and certificates, it would be impossible to move forward.
Mother Gu was so curious about what they saw that she started shopping with a basket in hand.
There are also a lot of children's toys here. The children are so stunned that they can't walk when they see them. Each of them is holding a bag of marbles in his hand, with love in his eyes.
"And a pistol!"
"Where?"
When the children heard about the gun, they became excited and ran over to see.
"I want it, I want it."
"I want this too."
When Grandma Sheng heard this, she quickly took it down for the children. The children got their favorite toys and held them in their arms, unwilling to let go.
"Come on, who wants it?"
"I'll get it for you."
Grandma Sheng and Grandpa Sheng were very skillful and could not hide the smiles on their faces.
"Thank you, Grandma Sheng."
The children took the toys they had chosen to their parents. Some of their parents were willing to buy them, while others scolded them for wasting money.
In the end, I couldn't resist the child's begging and had to buy it.
Mother Sheng paid for everyone at the cashier. She was quick and skillful and gave the change quickly and accurately.
Sheng Wanyan had already put several hundred coins in the grocery store, all tied up in bundles, which could be seen at a glance.
It was also convenient for Sheng's mother to find money. If she couldn't figure out the number, she would just use an abacus and fiddle with it.
Mother Sheng is very shrewd in this regard, and it is impossible for her to give the wrong change.
She treats every penny seriously. After all, people of this generation are used to being frugal, and they feel bad when they lose a penny.
"After the discount, the total is four dollars and eighty-five cents."
"You bought ten items here, you can choose one thing."
"Okay, okay."
This lady is the wife of the village chief. The village chief lives at the entrance of the village. Aunt He is a kind-hearted person.
Aunt He went to pick out a pound of meat and went back with the things smiling.
This is really worth it. She will ask her daughter-in-law, son and grandson to come buy things. If the whole family comes, won’t there be more than a dozen gifts?
Aunt He had a very beautiful thought and hurried home to tell her daughter-in-law, son, grandchildren and granddaughters to come and buy things.
After class at noon, Sheng Wanyan went straight to the grocery store.
Seeing that there were still crowds of people inside at noon, Sheng's mother's smile never faded.
Sheng Wanyan looked around and went home to eat, and also delivered lunch to Grandpa Sheng and the others.
"Grandpa, grandma, mom."
"Yan'er!"
When Sheng's mother saw her coming, she hurried to share the joy and gains of the morning with her.
"Yan'er, there are so many guests. Neighbors have come several times."
"Mom, why don't you come home for dinner?"
"Don't worry, it won't be too late to go back and cook when there are fewer people."
Sheng's mother was only concerned about making money. Sheng Wanyan also looked at the situation in the store. Although there were many people, everyone was shopping on their own, so it was enough for one person to watch.
"I brought you some food, you take turns eating."
"Don't delay your meal next time. Don't ruin your health just to make money."
"Hey! I know everything, don't worry about it, ah!"
Mother Sheng knew that her daughter was worried about them, but she felt uncomfortable when she thought about going home to cook and earning much less money.
"Mom, if you don't eat, grandpa and grandma have to eat too."
"Don't ruin your health just for this little money. It's not worth it."
"If you guys are reluctant to eat, then I'll have to treat you."
"Okay, okay, I can't argue with you."
Mother Sheng was happy and too lazy to argue with her. She also knew these principles and just needed to be more careful in the future.
"Let your grandparents eat first, I'll watch."
Sheng Wanyan nodded and put the food on the table in the warehouse. Grandpa and grandma Sheng put down their work and started eating.
