Chapter 76 Going to Town



However, when some families have a baby or other happy occasions, they need to steam some buns or make some pastries to give as gifts.

This white flour is considered a high-end product; it's sure to fetch a good price.

In the past few days, aside from spending the gold coins to recharge Fuqiang's energy, Ningjing has worked hard to keep the house clean and tidy. Although the children still look thin, they seem to be in much better spirits.

Although Fuqiang was still as stingy as ever, giving out only a few gold coins, she managed to save up more than 60 gold coins.

These gold coins can buy at least 20 catties of wheat in the system shop, but this makes Fuqiang's energy recharge very tight.

This doesn't even include the possibility of other unforeseen circumstances. Ning Jing had already planned to use only half of the gold coins as a precaution.

Most importantly, she still had two large bars of soap in her hand!

This thing requires an industrial permit here.

Industrial ration coupons were simply unavailable to rural residents, except for workers.

We'll keep one piece at home and take the other to town to try and exchange it for some oil and salt.

She was truly fed up with the food that had no oil or grease at all.

"Ning Jing, what brings you here?"

I've just cooked dinner at home, come and eat!

As Wang Guihua knocked on the Zhao family's door, she wondered who would come at this time.

Upon opening the courtyard gate, one could see Ning Jing standing outside, carrying a basket.

"Sister-in-law Guihua, dinner is ready at home. Xiuhua and the others are waiting for me to come back and eat!"

This is the dumpling soup my family made today. We didn't make much, but I'll serve you and Brother Zhao a bowl to try.

Ning Jing didn't go in either; nowadays, people cook according to the number of people and the portion sizes.

If she goes in and eats, the Zhao family will definitely not have enough to eat.

Wang Guihua saw Ning Jing take out a large bowl from the basket; the bowl contained many lumps and little soup.

She immediately stopped her, saying, "Ning Jing, since you didn't make much, take it back for the children to eat."

Your sister-in-law, your brother Zhao, and I can eat whatever we want, but the child is still young and needs to recover.

"Sister-in-law Guihua, don't worry!"

There should be enough food for the children; this is just a small token of my appreciation.

If you don't accept it, I'll feel terrible.

Ning Jing forcefully shoved the bowl into Wang Guihua's hands.

Seeing this, Wang Guihua thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, then I won't argue with you anymore!"

She accepted the bowl of noodle soup, then turned around and called out to Genshu, asking him to take it inside.

After seeing Wang Guihua accept the gift, Ning Jing smiled and asked, "Sister-in-law Guihua, are you going to town tomorrow?"

We're really short of supplies at home, so I'm thinking of taking some of the refined grains I received today to town to see if anyone's willing to trade them.

"Hey, you know what, we're missing a lot of things at home."

However, the money won't be distributed until the end of the year.

By the way, have you received all the money from selling those recruitment quotas?

Wang Guihua suddenly remembered this and quickly asked.

If you have money in hand, there's no need to rush to sell your fine grains.

After all, Ning Jing's family has a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. If they had some fine grains to cook rice oil to feed them, they could probably raise them to adulthood!

Otherwise, it will eventually collapse.

Ning Jing's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again.

Sister-in-law Guihua was unaware that the job openings were sold to the village chief, and now she needed the village chief's help.

In addition, the village chief had already given her some grain, so it would be unreasonable to ask him for money now.

"The other party promised to pay at the end of the year, so let's exchange the fine grains for some other things and get through this period first."
