Chapter 13 Ten catties of pork! Everyone in the village would be envious. (2/2)



Lin Yuxi asked, "Do you deliver goods?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Dongmei's eyes widened, and she quickly replied, "Yes, yes, yes! If you buy a lot, we can deliver it to the countryside, or even to your doorstep."

As long as it can be delivered!

Lin Yuxi looked inside and outside the counter and found that she basically had everything she wanted. This time, her family had eaten three meals at the village chief's house, and they ate a lot of meat and eggs. She bought thirty eggs, each costing six cents. She gave ten eggs to the village chief and also bought ten catties of pork, of which she would give at least two catties to the village chief.

She had eaten quite a bit of flour and rice, so she planned to give Gu Zhixiang a portion of what her family had eaten, and also buy some extra gifts as a thank you gift.

The originally packed shipping container was completely emptied by Lin Yuxi, who took one-sixth of it.

She bought several hoes and sickles, and made sure there were no missing electrical wires; she bought everything she needed.

"Can you deliver it today?" Lin Yuxi asked.

Jiang Dongmei nodded, her eyes narrowing into slits as she smiled. "Is there anything else you want to buy? I'll have my husband bring it all over to you in a carriage later."

"We also need to buy rubble."

"Alright, alright, I'll have my man come over. You two wait here for a moment. I'll tie these things to the carriage for you first." Jiang Dongmei thought the two of them were a couple, so she simply let them ride in the carriage.

"The person who sells rubble isn't here. If you want to buy tiles, just have him take you there. You won't need to ride bicycles anymore; he can just take you back directly."

There was a huge pile of things laid out at the door: four hoes, four sickles, pots and pans, as well as soy sauce, lard, eggs, and other similar items.

A short while later, Jiang Dongmei called her husband over, and she quickly grabbed a bag and packed it for Lin Yuxi.

"Put the eggs and pork at the bottom. After you're done packing, cover these things with a cloth." Lin Yuxi pointed to the eggs and meat. Eggs are prone to spoiling, so she bought several kilograms of rice to prevent them from getting damaged on the way.

Their status was that of a demoted person, so they needed to keep a low profile, otherwise they would easily be reported.

Ten pounds of pork!

If this were in the village, everyone would be envious.

As for Gu Chen? He had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and his whole demeanor was cold. At this moment, he was helping Jiang Dongmei's man move things. The hoe and sickle were sharp, so he had to wrap them up to avoid cutting his hands.

Isn't this the epitome of a married man?

After buying these, Lin Yuxi also bought some food at the grocery store. It must be very hot and tiring working in the fields, so she could also bring a bottle of mung bean soup to drink.

The carriage was fully loaded with goods. Its tires were larger than those of Gu Zhixiang's donkey cart. After covering them with cloth, the man tied them with rope to ensure they were secure.

After doing all this, he also asked Lin Yuxi for her opinion.

"Comrade, how about this?"

Lin Yuxi nodded.

The three of them got into the carriage, and Lin Yuxi sat next to Gu Chen. The two of them were at least four fists apart, which was much more stable than a donkey cart. They didn't get very bumpy when they encountered stones along the way.

The sun overhead was much smaller now, and an hour later, following the route, the carriage stopped in front of the adobe house.

Mr. and Mrs. Lin were still piling mud, but the yard had already been cleaned up, and the moss had been washed away. Although the house was old, it looked very clean.

The man quickly unloaded the goods and said, "Comrade, please check them."

The items were neatly arranged at the entrance of the house. Lin Yuxi came out of the house at this moment, holding a bottle of soda in her hand, and handed it to him, saying, "Thank you for your trouble, brother."

"I can't accept this. You've already bought so much stuff. How can I accept your soda too?" The man was sweating profusely, but he still waved his hand in refusal.

"Who knows what else we might need to buy later? We can't let you come all this way for nothing. The journey back is long, so have some water to quench your thirst."
