Zhou Huilan had indeed used up all the cotton coupons her family had, and even went outside to exchange some, to scrape together these two quilts. Hearing that she had two more, I felt relieved.
Although she was willing to help, hearing Zhu Qinghao's words now made her feel even more at ease.
“Hey, kid, you’re being too formal. What’s the big deal? We don’t need it anyway.”
Zhu Qinghao didn't believe these words, but she didn't refute them. She just kept these things in mind and planned to repay them later.
After registering, Zhou Huilan went back to work.
Meanwhile, Zhu Qinghao continued to stock up on things in her space, and in the past few days, the results have been remarkable.
The quilts were taken from the Zhu family and altered by someone. Four quilts weighing 6 jin each were combined and altered into two large quilts.
With the addition of the ones Zhou Huilan prepared, there were a total of four large cotton quilts, which was indeed enough.
She also planted cotton in her space, and it's already taller than her knees. She estimates that she'll be able to achieve cotton freedom by next year at the latest.
As for winter clothes for her family, she bought two sets for each person at the supply and marketing cooperative and the department store, and they can take them to be altered and patched up later.
She wasn't very good at this job, but once she got to the countryside, she would be hibernating during the winter, so she would have plenty of time to learn.
In terms of food, she used up all the snack coupons at home during this period and even went to the black market to exchange for a lot of them. Now, there are dozens of kilograms of various biscuits and pastries lying in her space.
This is for my family. When it's inconvenient to light a fire and cook a special meal, they need something to eat.
She also received a large bag of fried rice, which she could easily prepare by simply adding some boiling water. This was incredibly convenient for the people in the cowshed.
She's been going to the black market for rice and flour these past few days, but the amount of food she's gotten is still limited, only about fifty or sixty pounds in total.
The same goes for meat; she has only managed to buy about 20 kilograms of meat, 3 chickens, and half a sheep these past few days.
Fortunately, there are still four or five days before she goes to the countryside, so she can still buy a lot of things.
For the rest of the time, Zhu Qinghao was either stockpiling goods or on her way to stockpile goods, and even went to state-run restaurants to stockpile a lot of cooked food.
Now, her online space contains 60 steamed buns and 60 mantou, as well as more than a dozen packaged meat and vegetable dishes. She has even gone out to buy lunchboxes many times for this purpose.
Time flew by, and Monday arrived, with only one day left before she had to go to the countryside.
Early that morning, she went to the black market again and bought everything useful she could find and stored it in her spatial storage.
Now she can only buy things from the black market, because all her receipts, including those she later exchanged on the black market, have been spent and turned into useful items lying in her space.
Seeing that she was about to leave, she didn't go to exchange any more, but she did exchange quite a few nationwide receipts.
Although she had already asked Zhou Huilan to help her change, she dared not place all her hopes on others.
Back home, she rummaged through the nearest space and eventually took out two bottles of high-end red wine and a box of tea that Uncle Zhu used to love, intending to give them to Xiang Zhendong.
As for Zhou Huilan, Zhu Qinghao chose a very nice and beautiful piece of fabric for her, along with a set of skincare products from Friendship Store.
When she arrived in Xiangyu, she bought her a set of winter clothes and gave her a pink diamond necklace that she had bought before.
Thinking of Chen Yuting, Zhu Qinghao went and bought a scarf that suited her very well.
Having prepared her things, and seeing that it was still early, she went to the state-run restaurant to buy a braised pork and a chicken stew with mushrooms.
She was planning to take it to the Xiang family to eat, so she added some spiritual spring water to both dishes.
She had seen how hard her family had been working for her these past few days, so she wasn't stingy with these things.
