Even Yuan Yuan couldn't resist and said anxiously, "Grandpa, I want to go fishing too."
Lin's father teased him, "But Grandpa only has one fishing rod."
Yuan Yuan was disappointed after hearing this. "Oh? What should I do? Can I buy one? I have my New Year's money!"
He then looked at Su He, since Su He was the one who saved his New Year's money.
Su He chuckled, "Do you think your New Year's money is enough to buy a fishing rod?"
Yuanyuan shook her head. "I don't know. If it's not enough, can I borrow some from Mom? Then I'll buy two, one for my great-grandfather and one for myself, so we can go fishing together."
Old Man Su was deeply moved that his great-grandson still remembered him.
Su He laughed when she heard this, and patted his head, saying, "I'll buy your great-grandfather's fishing rod, but you still have to go to school, so you probably won't be able to fish many times after I buy the rod. Do you really want to borrow money from me to buy it?"
After listening, Yuan Yuan thought about it carefully, her little face full of struggle, and finally said, "Mom, can I think about it?"
Su He nodded, "Of course you can. Tell Mom when you've made up your mind."
"good"
After that, Su He ignored him and took out the soft-soled old cloth shoes she had bought that morning and gave them to the elderly people in her family.
The group was delighted to receive the shoes and tried them on; they were indeed very comfortable.
Everyone praised her for her good purchase, and Su He was quite happy to hear that.
However, she didn't hide it from her family and told them about the exchange meeting.
Upon hearing this, Lin's mother exclaimed, "So there's such a place! I've never heard of it before."
"Yes, I just found out too. I've heard about it for many years, so it's been kept very well hidden."
Lin's mother nodded. "Now that there are restrictions on everything you can buy, people have to find ways to buy more. It's normal for these things to happen. But the people who organized this are really clever; they've thought of everything very thoroughly."
Su He nodded. "I heard it's someone from the government, but it's just a rumor. Nobody really investigated it. After all, it's already pretty good that there's such a place. At least it makes buying things much more convenient."
"Yes, it is indeed very convenient and safe, and the people who come and go are all people whose backgrounds are clear."
Indeed, compared to the chaotic black market, this place is much safer.
So Su He said to Grandma Su, "Grandma, if there's anything you need that's hard to buy at home, just tell me. Don't go to the black market by yourself anymore."
Grandma Su nodded. "We usually don't lack anything at home. Apart from the things that the villagers ask us to bring, we only have meat. We have a lot of family members and many children. Although you and Xiaolin have a lot of meat coupons, it's not enough to eat."
"But didn't I meet a pork seller with your Aunt Zheng and the others before? He probably works at a meat processing plant, so he doesn't need to go out to buy meat. After that, he just delivers it to me whenever he has any, so I don't have to go out to buy it."
Su He was relieved to hear that. "Okay, let me know if there's anything you can't buy."
"Okay, Grandma understands."
When Lin Jingyan returned that evening, Su He told him about it. It was the first time he had heard of it, so he didn't say anything, only telling her to be careful when she went over.
Su He nodded and assured him that she would disguise herself beforehand each time she went to avoid being recognized.
The next day, before Su He could even go to work, she was stopped by Yuan Yuan.
To be honest, she had completely forgotten what she had said to him yesterday, but she didn't expect him to remember and come over first thing this morning to tell her:
"Mom, I've made up my mind. I don't want to buy a fishing rod anymore."
