Chapter 871: Spring (V)
After hearing what Liu Biao said, Lu Xiaoxiao recalled that the price of sweet potatoes sold by the supply and marketing cooperative seemed to be eight cents per pound, but that required food coupons. So her sweet potatoes, which did not require food coupons, would be ten cents per pound.
"Liu Biao, the supply and marketing cooperative sells sweet potatoes for eight cents a pound, but they need tickets. I don't need tickets here, so I'll sell them to you for ten cents a pound. If you can accept this price, buy from me. If you can't accept it, I can give you the money."
"We accept this price. We don't have food coupons, so it's impossible for us to buy it at the supply and marketing cooperative. The price of sweet potatoes on the black market has soared to 0.20 yuan per pound. If we go to the black market to buy it instead of buying it from you, we would be fools." Liu Biao spoke immediately after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words.
"In that case, I'll weigh out 40 kilograms of sweet potatoes for you." After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she weighed out 40 kilograms of sweet potatoes for Liu Biao and the others.
Liu Biao was about to leave after picking up the sweet potatoes that Lu Xiaoxiao had weighed for them, but when he turned around, he heard Lu Xiaoxiao calling them to wait, so they turned around and looked at Lu Xiaoxiao again.
"I give you these four pounds of corn grits as a welcome gift from your boss. When you cook corn grits porridge, cut a few sweet potatoes into it. It will not only taste good but also keep you full."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Liu Biao took the corn grits that Lu Xiaoxiao handed to him without any pretense. They would all do things for Lu Xiaoxiao in the future. Since these corn grits were a gift from Lu Xiaoxiao to them, there was no need for them to be pretentious.
After Lu Xiaoxiao sent Liu Biao and his friends away, she was about to go back to her house when she heard a knock on the door. She originally thought it was Liu Biao and his friends, but when she opened the door and saw it was her second sister, she immediately said to her, "Second sister, why are you here? Come in."
After Lu Xiaoxiao entered the house and poured a cup of hot water for Liu Ermei, she said to Liu Ermei, "Second sister, why did you think of coming to my house to play with me today?"
"I'm not here to play with you today."
"Then why did you come to see me?"
"Tomorrow is the sixteenth day of the first lunar month."
"Oh, I didn't expect the New Year to pass so quickly."
"You think of these when you hear the 16th day of the first lunar month?" Liu Ermei looked at Lu Xiaoxiao with her eyes wide open after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said.
"That's all I can think of. Is the 16th day of the first lunar month a special day?"
"Yes, the 16th day of the first lunar month is a special day."
"Your birthday?"
"no."
"Just tell me what that is. I really can't figure it out."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Liu Ermei rolled her eyes at her, and then she said, "The sixteenth day of the first lunar month is the first day of school. I knew you would forget, so I came to your house today to remind you."
Only after hearing Liu Ermei's words did Lu Xiaoxiao remember about going to school. If Liu Ermei hadn't come to her house today to tell her that school would start tomorrow, she would really forget to register tomorrow.
"Second sister, thank you for coming to tell me that school will start tomorrow."
"Why are you being so polite to me? I'll come to see you at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning to sign up together."
"good."
After Liu Ermei left, Lu Xiaoxiao poured herself a large glass of water and drank it. She had been busy since she left the space and had not even had time to drink a sip of water.
After drinking the water, Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the time and saw that it was already eleven o'clock, so she gathered the food and took out a bowl of noodles from the space and started eating.
