Due to China's strict regulations on petroleum, refueling is limited to filling up a car's tank. Transferring fuel to other containers is not permitted. If you wish to take away or purchase a large quantity of petrol, you must obtain relevant documentation.
Su Jin didn't know about this beforehand. After hearing what Lu Hao said, her idea of collecting oil was ruined. It seemed that she could only collect some when the apocalypse just broke out and the order was still very chaotic.
So Su Jin went shopping with her mother and aunt the next day. Nie Qing and Lin Xiuyuan also went with them. Her aunt didn't go because she had to stay at home to receive a package.
In fact, Nie Qingben didn't want to go out. He was watching the last few episodes of "Ashes of Love" at home.
Su Jin's grandparents only have one big TV at home, and now almost the whole family is in the living room with him watching TV series, but no one is crying as miserably as he is.
When Su Jin and Lu Hao entered the room, they saw Li Xiuying and Nie Qing, each with a pack of tissues in front of them, watching a TV series. The trash can was already full of tissues...
If the whole family hadn't taken great pains to explain to Nie Qing that the people on TV weren't acting just for one person, but for the people of the whole country, Nie Qing would probably have stayed up late to watch the show again.
Li Xiuying is also a TV fan, but she seldom watches this kind of youth idol drama. However, after watching this drama, she felt very sad. The handsome second male lead made her heart break, so she cried with Nie Qing.
Su Jin was amazed. It seemed that she would download more TV series to her computer and tablet when she had time.
Several people went to the largest local supermarket first. After entering the supermarket, Su Jin pulled out a few shopping carts and distributed them to several people. Then everyone started shopping with a shopping cart. Even Nie Qing and Lin Xiuyuan each had a shopping cart.
Considering that Li Xiuying was old, Su Jin did not let her grandmother push the cart, but walked with her grandmother.
"Lin boy, can't we just put and take things here without paying?" It was also Nie Qing's first time to go to the supermarket. He was not used to this shopping mode, but after seeing that everyone put things in naturally, he got used to it after a while.
"Uncle Nie, yes, just put what you want in the cart now, and pay when you get to the exit later." Lin Xiuyuan said as he threw snacks into his shopping cart. He felt like he was a real rich man now, haha.
Lin Xiuyuan looked at Su Jin's shopping cart: chocolate, sausages of different thicknesses, compressed biscuits, canned meat...
Then he looked at his shopping cart: it was full of vacuum-packed potato chips, shrimp crackers, and puffed foods... Wasn't he too extravagant? It was already inconvenient to carry these space-consuming things in the apocalypse, but he still bought these.
However, when he saw Su Jin took a look at his food and didn't say anything, he felt relieved. It didn't matter. He just had to eat it quickly in the next few days, otherwise he wouldn't be able to eat it in the future.
Lin Xiuyuan looked back and couldn't find Uncle Nie. He felt a little anxious. Su Jin told him to keep an eye on Uncle Nie and not let him get lost.
Because it was a weekday and there were few people in the supermarket, he quickly found Nie Qing.
Nie Qing placed his hand on the ice cream freezer, then pulled it back after a while. Then he put his hand back on it again, and then pulled it back again...
So, could it be that this Uncle Nie came from a remote rural area and had never watched TV or seen a freezer? I have to say that Lin Xiuyuan was telling the truth again.
Seeing Lin Xiuyuan approaching, Nie Qing quickly pulled him aside and asked, "Lin, what kind of box is this? Why does it feel so cold?"
…
Lin Tianhui and Lin Tianzhen also followed Su Jin's example and bought a lot of chocolate, biscuits and ham. In fact, they had already bought a lot of these in bulk and stored them in the warehouse, but they still had some money left at home, and it would be a waste if they didn't spend it all.
A few women were shopping together and ended up in the clothing section, where they began picking out clothes before they knew it.
Only Lin Xiuyuan and Nie Qing were left, each holding a paid ice cream. They looked at the five shopping carts in front of them and licked the ice cream silently.
Nie Qing: "What kind of divine delicacy is this? It's so delicious?"
"Uncle Nie, where did you live before? Have you never eaten ice cream?" Lin Xiuyuan had no ill intentions, he was just curious.
Nie Qing also knew that Lin Xiuyuan had no intention of looking down on him, so he told him the truth that he had lived in seclusion in the mountains before.
Lin Xiuyuan was not very surprised. People of their generation have had a strong ability to absorb information since childhood. Let alone a hermit, even if a god came, he would remain calm.
As the two chatted, the women finally came out with a lot of gains.
If Lu Hao hadn't called them to tell them that his grandfather had prepared the food, they might have spent another afternoon shopping.
Su Jin bought mainly long-sleeved shirts and trousers, especially durable jeans. She bought some for almost everyone, even Nie Qing. She also bought some leather jackets that were on sale for the new season. She thought these would be sturdier and wouldn't tear if caught by zombies.
Su's mother, aunt and grandmother did not buy those cumbersome clothes, but mainly bought some underwear for changing.
Women buy clothes not only for themselves but also for the men and children in their families.
Lu Hao did not come with the others. He stayed at his grandmother's house to help Lin Cheng and Mao Zhihang raise the outer wall. They planned to move into this house in the early days of the apocalypse. After calculation, they found that there were just enough rooms, so for everyone's safety, they still needed to reinforce the house.
Su Jin said that in the apocalypse, we have to guard against more than just zombies. Sometimes human hearts are scarier than zombies.
