"When did you become so good at talking?" Ye Han said as he handed the ordering tablet to Yue Chengyu. "Look, is there anything else you want to eat?"
Yue Chengyu took the tablet, looked at the two dishes Ye Han had selected, and did not continue. Instead, he asked again, "Do you want to eat anything else?"
"there is none left."
"Well, that's enough for us to eat. That's all." Yue Chengyu said and clicked to confirm the order. "Is that all?"
"Well, don't you want anything to eat?"
"Anything is fine with me, as long as it's enough for the two of us." Yue Chengyu wasn't particularly interested in food; as long as he was full, he was happy. Unlike Ye Han, Ye Han loved to eat. For Yue Chengyu, eating was just eating, but for Ye Han, it was a pleasure. Therefore, on the few occasions they went out to eat, Ye Han always ordered the dishes.
After taking the last bite, Ye Han put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth with a tissue. "Going to the supermarket?"
Yue Chengyu just nodded and said nothing.
"Then let's go."
There were still a lot of people at this time. Ye Han and Yue Chengyu didn't get in the first elevator, so they waited for the second one. Soon they arrived at the underground floor, which was the supermarket.
After exiting the elevator, Yue Chengyu pretended to look around nonchalantly, but in reality, he was already observing, and inwardly he kept sighing, "I didn't expect that this underground space could also be utilized."
This means that the two people came strolling here, and Yue Chengyu had not yet seen the parking lot on the second floor below ground.
Yue Chengyu looked at the men and women, young and old, coming and going. Almost everyone was pushing a small cart. There were many shelves in front of them. Although he could only see a part of them and he didn't recognize most of the things, he could still see that the variety was very rich and they were arranged neatly.
There was a constant smell of food wafting from both sides, which looked like some food.
While Yue Chengyu was observing his surroundings, Ye Han saw a cart coming over from nowhere. "Let's go."
When Yue Chengyu heard Ye Han's voice, he looked around and nodded. He took the shopping cart from Ye Han's hand and followed Ye Han in.
The first area they saw was the area selling sanitary products. As they passed by, Ye Han grabbed a bag of toilet paper and a bag of tissue paper and placed them in the shopping cart. Yue Chengyu watched Ye Han's actions without asking any questions, but silently observed the actions of Ye Han and the people around him.
This time, Yue Chengyu barely spoke, using only his eyes and ears. Knowing he wasn't familiar with modern things, he encouraged himself to listen more, watch more, and talk less. Over this period of time, Yue Chengyu had already grasped many aspects of the local environment. At the very least, he had managed to appear completely integrated into this era, leaving no room for any clues.
As the two of them walked along, Ye Han put whatever he needed into the shopping cart. Soon, the cart was half full.
There was no other way. The house was missing anything. It was almost all empty shells. I needed to buy everything, especially the daily necessities area. I spent half an hour shopping for slippers, towels, bath towels, toothpaste, toothbrushes, tooth cups, pots and pans... I needed to buy everything.
As Yue Chengyu pushed the cart, he watched Ye Han quickly throw things into the cart, and he was still sighing at how convenient it was. This place called a supermarket had so many things in it. There were countless brands of one item.
"I think I've bought almost everything." Ye Han muttered as he looked at the shelves, glancing at the shopping cart from time to time.
"That's about it. Just buy some more vegetables and fruits and we'll be done. Let's go."
Yue Chengyu didn't respond and followed Ye Han silently, pushing the cart.
The first place they arrived at was the dried fruit area, and Ye Han bought some of whatever he liked.
"Buy so much?"
"Well, I'll split some between the two families when the time comes." Ye Han saw that they had bought enough for almost four families. There were raisins, dried mangoes, and all sorts of other things. There were also some nuts. Although there was fresh fruit, it wouldn't hurt to buy dried fruit along with the fruit. It would be great as a snack.
As we walked along, we saw everything from dried fruits to fresh fruits and vegetables, beef, mutton, pork and fish in the meat area, and all kinds of seafood in the seafood area.
Yue Chengyu, a prince who had lived a life of luxury since childhood, was stunned by what he saw, especially the seafood. He had never seen more than half of them before, especially the shrimps, crabs and various fish, most of which were still alive.
It’s not that he had never eaten crabs and prawns before, but the production was limited, and not many were sent to the capital. What’s more, those that were sent were not alive and were far less fresh than these.
Although he was somewhat prepared, knowing that most people here lived well, looking at the supermarket's goods, especially those related to food, various staple foods, fruits and vegetables, meat, eggs, seafood, and the many ordinary people choosing, Yue Chengyu could not help but be shocked by the level of wealth here.
The attention paid to food by the locals here reveals just how well they eat. After all, those who don't have enough to eat don't have the time to worry about whether the food is fresh, tastes good, is it good for the body, or is it nutritionally balanced. Those who have the time to dwell on these things must be overeating.
"How about some crabs and shrimp?"
"Um."
"What about this? What about the hairtail?"
"Can."
By the time the two of them finished shopping, the shopping cart was overflowing. It took three large bags to fit it all.
Ye Han looked at the three large bags overflowing in the shopping cart and sighed slightly, "I should have driven earlier." To save up some money, Ye Han had indeed bought a car, which was now in the garage at the residential complex. But he figured the mall was right next to the complex, not far away, perfect for a stroll. And most importantly, although he had a driver's license, he had never driven a car before, except for the few times he'd done so at driving school.
As a novice, I was not too brave. But I didn't expect to buy so many things in the end.
"It's okay, I'll carry these three."
"That's the only way. It's too much trouble for me to carry it anyway. I'll carry the clothes and everything."
