Chapter 3: Crossing Countdown 3



After putting away the things she bought, Li Qingyun went straight to the largest local supermarket, found the person in charge of the supermarket, gave him a shopping list, and asked him to deliver the goods to her door.

You need to stock up on a lot of daily necessities such as shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, toothpaste and toothbrush, soap, towels, paper towels, sanitary napkins, and laundry detergent, especially sanitary napkins.

There are also facial care sets from brands like Lancome, lotion and serum, facial cleanser, sunscreen, etc. I have to buy at least ten sets, and a few nude lip glosses.

Thinking of the two children in her dream, she wrote down ten bottles of baby cream, five Pigeon bottles, twenty packs of small-size Da Wang diapers, thirty packs of medium-size diapers, and fifty packs of large-size diapers.

There are 50 barrels of A2 milk powder for stages one to four, 20 barrels of children's milk powder, and 20 barrels of milk powder for adult nutritional supplements.

All the fast food products in the supermarket are packaged in several portions, such as roast chicken, roast duck, braised food platters, etc. In addition, there are ten boxes of instant noodles, two boxes of ham sausage, instant seaweed soup, self-heating hot pot, ten boxes of self-heating rice, and dozens of kilograms of various breads and snacks.

The supermarket manager calculated for about twenty minutes and quoted a total price of 85,000 yuan. The main reason was that milk powder was expensive, diapers were not cheap either, and the quantity was large. However, it was necessary to buy them. How could a child grow well without milk? Li Qingyun gritted her teeth and decided to buy them!

After talking with the supermarket manager for a long time, he finally agreed to reduce the price by two thousand yuan and gave me a basket of cracked durian and a basket of cantaloupe.

After transferring out 83,000 yuan, there was less than 10,000 yuan left in the small treasury. After agreeing on the delivery time, Li Qingyun walked out of the supermarket with heavy steps.

After years of hard work, we are back to where we were before liberation.

She saved up these 180,000 yuan with great difficulty by living frugally.

While others ordered takeout, she got up an hour earlier every day to cook and bring her own food. When she ate alone in the stairwell, she was very happy in her heart because she knew that the hard work was only temporary and that after she could get through it, she would always have a new life of her own.

Over the years, no one except her grandmother has really cared about her feelings.

Her parents favored boys over girls, and who knew that she was born in an era of strict family planning. After they found out that Li Qingyun was a girl, they immediately sent her back to her hometown to be raised by her grandmother, who raised her with bowls of rice soup and noodle porridge.

So later she had another creature called brother, and her parents finally got what they wanted.

Her name was Li Qingyun, and she liked this name very much. It was a name that her grandmother had asked a respected person in the village to give her. Her cruel parents didn't even have the time to give her a name before sending her back to her hometown in the countryside.

She was already in high school when her grandmother passed away. Her parents reluctantly took her back to the city, back to the home where she didn't fit in. There were no relatives, only a lot of pros and cons to weigh. Her parents just wanted her to drop out of school early and work to contribute to the family. Who would have thought that she had excellent grades, and the school would rather waive tuition and accept her.

He cried poor and said he had no money to support her studies, and was even unwilling to pay for his own tuition, but he was able to pay the full amount for his brother to buy a house. It was at this moment that her heart died.

With the help of her teachers and school, Li Qingyun was admitted to a first-class university and completed her studies with the help of student loans.

Every winter and summer vacation, when other classmates happily go home, she is busy doing odd jobs to earn money to support herself. No one asks her how she is doing or whether she will go home this year.

She has no home, so her obsession has always been to have her own little home.

After a moment of sadness, Li Qingyun quickly adjusted her mood and began to check for omissions. After thinking about it, she found that she had not prepared any thick winter clothes. You know, winter in the north is very cold.

You also need to prepare some candles for lighting. Kerosene lamps are mostly used in rural areas. In comparison, candles are more convenient, so you need to prepare more.

Riding on his electric scooter, Li Qingyun used the remaining money to buy ten boxes of candles and six down liners, some large and some small.

When passing by the food street, I packed a box of palace pastries, ten fruit cakes, ten boxes of Juewei duck necks, ten bowls of Sichuan ice jelly, ten servings of spicy hot pot, as well as bowl-shaped cakes and red bean cakes. I also bought ten buckets of KFC fried chicken and French fries family buckets.

Now I only have the last two thousand yuan left, and I can’t touch this money anymore.

After returning to the warehouse to collect the goods delivered by the supermarket, Li Qingyun was so tired that she slumped on a chair at the door of the warehouse.

"Countdown to twelve hours" the mechanical voice sounded again.

When he looked at the time, it was already eight o'clock. The moon was rising above the branches. Li Qingyun spent a whole day to finally fill up the space. He exchanged his 180,000 savings for a lot of daily necessities. The fear of the unknown in his heart was finally reduced.

With so many supplies, no matter where you go, you can at least live a worry-free life for a period of time.

She walked slowly to the food court and had a buffet hotpot meal that she had been reluctant to eat before. She filled her stomach until she could no longer eat anything else. Then she returned to the rental house with a bulging belly, sorted out her personal belongings, packed them, and put them away in the space.

Fell asleep contentedly.
