Jiang Nian lifted the towel on the bamboo basket, revealing the wild boar meat inside. All of it was cut into small strips of fatty pork. After all, fatty meat is more popular.
She didn't like the taste of wild boar meat very much, as it had a strong odor that couldn't be removed. The reason she had processed wild boar meat was because she had no oil at home, so she hunted a wild boar to make lard.
Jiang Nian is picky about food, but that doesn’t mean others are the same.
She was led to a location and exchanged the pork in the basket for cloth coupons and half a bag of cotton, enough to make two cotton-padded jackets for Ye Zhiqiu. She also spent twenty yuan to buy a bicycle ticket, and only then was she qualified to wander around inside.
It was also because her face was unfamiliar and it was obvious that it was her first time here.
The biggest gain after shopping for half a day was actually 10 kilograms of rice. She spent 5.2 yuan on this expensive rice without asking for food coupons, but the quality was very good, with a clear texture and rice fragrance, which was not comparable to those inferior rice.
Just as she was about to pay, she heard the sound of a gong.
The rice-selling boy in front of her panicked for a moment, grabbed the money from her hand and ran away.
Jiang Nian was about to chase after him when he saw the crowd around him getting in chaos.
Everyone quickly picked up their things and scattered in all directions, each running off on their own.
She reacted instantly and ran in one direction.
But her luck was bad. There were so many people running around, but the one wearing a red armband was chasing in this direction.
Not knowing whose house it was, she put the rice into the space, stepped lightly, climbed over the wall, and quickly landed on the other side of the house.
Without stopping, she headed in the direction she had agreed with Ye Zhiqiu.
Relying on his extraordinary kung fu, he had a smooth journey.
Ye Zhiqiu had been looking around at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative for a long time. When he saw her, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Teacher, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
The saleswoman at the supply and marketing cooperative was just inside. She smiled kindly and said to her, "So you are a teacher. God, God is so partial to you. All the advantages are really given to you alone."
Although Jiang Nian had been here a long time ago, the saleswoman had never forgotten her. After all, such a beautiful girl was rare to see, and even she, a woman, felt her eyes light up when she saw her.
"Sister, please stop praising me. If you continue praising me, I'll float to the sky." Jiang Nian walked in.
Most people in the town make a living by farming and fishing. After all, they live by the mountains and the water. But most people are not rich, so the supply and marketing cooperatives are also shabby. Although there seem to be a lot of things, they are placed in a messy way.
Jiang Nian: "Sister, do you have any nice cotton fabric? Give me some to make two pieces of clothing suitable for the girl next to me."
"Yes, yes. The cloth that arrived two days ago hasn't been sold yet. The white and red plaid one looks good, just right for a little girl. But do you want to make two? That would require a lot of cloth. Do you have enough cloth coupons?"
In the countryside, each person was only given two feet of cloth coupons per year, which was enough for a family to make one piece of clothing, so cloth coupons were very rare.
"Enough." She forgot to ask Ye Zhiqiu, "Can you make clothes?"
She won't be able to do that anyway, so don't count on her.
Ye Zhiqiu nodded, "I can do it. My mother taught me a few years ago."
She said that a woman must know some needlework, because in the future all the sewing and mending work in the family will be done by her.
She once thought that these words were uncomfortable to hear, but she did not dare to refute them.
