Chapter 71 Pike



However, just as Su Ruyi raised her finger towards the Moutai liquor, the salesperson rolled her eyes and told her, "Do you want foreign exchange certificates? Or is it limited to one bottle per person?"

Su Ruyi had no choice but to give up awkwardly.

After walking around again, she saw a long queue of people, asked a question, and joined the queue.

So she managed to buy some rare items—a limited supply of two kilograms of apples and oranges per person.

The prices are outrageously high; apples cost one dollar per pound, and oranges cost eight mao per pound.

However, people still lined up to buy them.

I wonder if apple and orange seeds can grow into fruit trees.

After buying the fruit, she thought of canned fruit.

A few days ago, Su Tong wanted to buy some things for her and send them to her, but she stopped him.

If that thing breaks halfway through, it's a bomb! Not only will there be juice, but also glass shards, and everything else will be contaminated.

The canned goods sold here are local brands, and no coupons are required.

This may be the earliest regional protection mechanism.

She bought peaches, pears, oranges, and canned quail eggs, two cans of each, for a total of 3.2 yuan.

The first three cans are glass bottles, the last one is a large tin bucket, and it also comes with a reusable lid.

After she finishes eating these things, she will have plenty of containers left.

After carrying the items back to the space timer, it was already 5:30 p.m.

She and Su Tong arranged to have dinner together at a state-run restaurant, so they could catch up.

Su Tong arrived earlier than her as usual, and the food was already laid out on the table—braised pork and braised ribbonfish were always served, along with scrambled eggs with tomatoes and stir-fried pork with chili peppers.

Two large bowls of steaming hot rice.

Without saying a word, the brother and sister sat down and started eating.

To be honest, Su Ruyi has gotten a little tired of eating the food from the baby food box these past two days.

Although she felt bad for her housekeeper going to so much trouble, the thought of eating the same things every day made her lose her appetite.

etc……

Su Ruyi's eyes widened—could I also put the food in the food box on the first day, and then have the food I put in there on the second day?

When Su Tong saw that Su Ruyi had suddenly stopped moving and was staring at him, he immediately became nervous: "Ruyi, did you choke on a fishbone?"

"Huh?" Su Ruyi snapped out of her reverie. "No, no! I was just lost in thought!"

Su Tong lowered his voice: "I went to Aunt Wu's house today."

As he spoke, he told Su Ruyi everything he had learned from Aunt Wu.

After hearing Su Tong's account, Su Ruyi remained silent for a long time.

She hadn't expected the armed conflict to be this serious.

Su Dajian is dead.

If Su Ruyi remembered correctly, in her previous life, a dozen years later, Su Dajian would have been sentenced to death for rape.

The girl was his neighbor's newlywed wife. She was just 18 years old, lively, beautiful, and enthusiastic.

During his trial, he said that no woman in the world had ever smiled at him so happily, not even his wife.

Therefore, he concluded that the girl was interested in him, and one day he confessed his feelings to her.

The new bride was shocked and furious. Overwhelmed with shame and indignation, she cursed him.

Enraged and humiliated, Su Dajian decided to kill him.

He was caught up in the policy change and was immediately sentenced to death.

In this life, Su Dajian died more than ten years earlier. Did he unintentionally save a beautiful young girl?

This should be considered a good deed, right?

Speaking of merit, Su Ruyi thought of the person who called himself Zhong Su.

Or rather, his voice.

It never appeared again.

When she was in the space, the subtle feeling of being watched completely disappeared.

Zhong Su said he was preparing for a long journey.

What does that mean exactly?

Where is he going next?

Su Tong waved his hand in front of Su Ruyi's eyes: "Ruyi, what's wrong? Is something on your mind? Tell your fourth brother!"

"No, I'm fine, don't worry. Oh, by the way, Fourth Brother!" Su Ruyi took out the pen, "This is for you!"

"Wow!" Su Tong's eyes lit up with surprise. "A Parker pen! A Parker 45! How did you get this? Didn't you need foreign exchange certificates?"

"Huh? It's a Parker pen?" Su Ruyi had heard of Parker pens in her previous life, but had never seen one.

I guess the salesperson who sold her the pen didn't recognize her either; she just pulled out a big box and let her choose for herself before sitting back down to knit.

The box for this pen is old; it looks like it hasn't been sold in a long time.

The salesperson said that Su Ruyi had chosen four "butt pens" and asked her to choose again.

But Su Ruyi insisted on having this kind of product.

I just happened to like it because of its blue body, which was a happy accident.

Su Tong accepted the pen and cherished it dearly.

The two stopped talking about the Su family, both understanding that there was nothing more to say.

Those wicked people from Sujiazhuang and Wang'ao Village will face more than three years in prison.

Su Ruyi had some doubts about whether Su Tong had also been reborn, but Su Tong had acted perfectly normally in at least a dozen attempts to probe him recently.

Therefore, her fourth brother was just so clever that he made her feel slightly afraid.

After dinner, Su Tong escorted Su Ruyi back to the state-run hotel.

Su Ruyi entered the space again and came to the backyard.

The sky over the backyard was still bright and sunny.

Su Ruyi planted the pre-treated seeds.

As they planted, they kept a record of what was planted on each plot of land.

After working for several hours, she took a relaxing hot bath before returning to the second floor.
