Wang Chungen had to rush to the commune to pick someone up, so Shen Zhihuan got off the car directly at the entrance of the town and agreed to wait here again two hours later.

Nowadays, watches are considered a luxury item and most people cannot afford them. So when they say it is two hours, it is just an approximation.

Shuangsha Town only has a few streets, and it would take less than two hours to walk through them all.

The sun was so hot that it burned people's scalps as if they were on fire.

Shen Zhihuan didn't plan to stand in the sun for a long time to supplement calcium, so he went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative in the center of the town.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Shen Zhihuan saw the few bare bones left on the meat stall, without a trace of meat.

"How much is this bone?" Shen Zhihuan stopped.

"Five cents a stick, no ticket needed." The short and fat woman selling meat said impatiently, shaking the bamboo fan in her hand.

"I want them all." Shen Zhihuan took out thirty-five cents and put them on the counter.

The short and fat woman curled her lips, slowly stood up, wrapped the shiny pork ribs in oil paper, and threw them in front of Shen Zhihuan with a "pa".

"Thank you, grandma!" Shen Zhihuan put the pork bones into the backpack behind him and smiled sweetly at the short and fat woman.

The short and fat woman jumped up as her buttocks touched the bench.

"You call me grandma?"

The short and fat woman's furious voice frightened several people who had just stepped into the door of the supply and marketing cooperative and made them tremble all over.

"Grandma, what's wrong with you? Did I say something wrong?" Shen Zhihuan looked innocent.

"I'm only 35, and you call me grandma?" The short and fat woman was so angry that all the fat on her body began to tremble.

"Thirty-five?" Shen Zhihuan looked up and down at the fat woman's swimming rings suspiciously, his tone clearly showing some disbelief.

When the people who had just stepped into the door of the supply and marketing cooperative heard this, they also looked at the short and fat woman. After a careful examination, they also expressed doubts about the thirty-five that the short and fat woman said.

"Sister Sun, you are the same age as me?" The female salesperson at the counter next to the pork stall looked shocked.

She always thought Sun Yongxiu must be fifty years old!

Everyone looked at the short and fat woman, then at the saleswoman at the counter next to the pork stall, all with a look of disbelief on their faces.

One is short, fat and obese, like an old woman, while the other is young, beautiful and graceful. Even a blind man could not tell whether they are the same age by feeling.

Mother and daughter are almost the same.

Perhaps the silent doubts of the crowd were too glaring. The short and fat woman glared at the saleswoman at the counter next to her and rushed out of the supply and marketing cooperative angrily.

Shen Zhihuan watched the short and fat woman rushing around and disappearing around the corner of the street, then hummed a little tune and went to the counter selling canned food and pastries.

Shen Zhihuan stuffed egg cakes, canned yellow peaches, honey corn, malted milk, peach cakes, glutinous rice sticks, White Rabbit milk candy and so on into the backpack as if they were free.

The pastry salesman was stunned by this outrageous move.

Egg cake costs fifty cents per pound. Many people are reluctant to buy a pound to try it all year round, but this little girl buys two pounds at a time.

There were also canned fruits and malted milk that most relatives were reluctant to buy, but this little girl took three cans at a time.

"I bought this for the educated youth in our production team." Shen Zhihuan explained with a smile when he noticed that the salesperson couldn't close his mouth.

"No wonder! I was wondering why you bought so many good things even though it's not a festival." The saleswoman smiled.

The educated youth were the main consumers of high-end products from their supply and marketing cooperatives.

Before leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Shen Zhihuan turned to the counter selling braised food and got half a braised chicken. Only then did Shen Zhihuan leave the supply and marketing cooperative.

Following the green trees on the street to the entrance of the town, Wang Chungen's ox cart had not arrived yet. Shen Zhihuan found a stone block to sit on, took out an egg cake from his backpack and started eating.

Although the egg cakes these days are not as delicate and soft as the ones I ate in my previous life, they are also very sweet.

Before I knew it, I had finished three egg cakes.

Seeing the ox cart appear at the end of the street, Shen Zhihuan quickly raised his hand and wiped the corner of his mouth.

When the ox cart slowly approached, Shen Zhihuan could clearly see the three men and four women behind the cart.

Judging from the clothes they were wearing, they should be from big cities, especially the long-haired girl in pink blouse, who looked like she was from a wealthy family.

"Zhihuan, have you been waiting for a long time?" Wang Chungen jumped off the carriage.

He took out the sack that Shen Zhihuan had been sitting on from the compartment under the driver's seat and spread it on the empty seat next to the female educated youth.

"I just arrived too." Shen Zhihuan smiled and got on the ox cart carrying the backpack containing a few bones.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

The female educated youth with two pigtails glanced at the burlap bag under Shen Zhihuan's butt, then looked down at the wooden board under herself, and her face suddenly became a little ugly.

"My fellow villager, are you buying these bones to feed the dog? But there is no meat on these bones. Will the dog eat them?" The female educated youth with two pigtails glanced at Shen Zhihuan's backpack and smiled.

The other educated youth, including Wang Chungen, all looked stern.

These days, most families have a hard time. Some families in financial difficulties don’t even smell meat once all year round.

In order to satisfy their cravings, many families would buy a few pork ribs that are not popular among rich people and make soup at home, which can also be regarded as a taste of meat.

"Comrade Zhiqing, you are joking. My family is so poor that we can barely support ourselves. How can we possibly raise a dog? But you can't compare to your family who have both old and puppies." Shen Zhihuan curled the corners of his lips slightly.

The smug look on the young girl's face froze instantly, and she angrily said, "Mud-legged bastard..."

The male educated youth sitting next to the driver's seat glared.

"Comrade Wang Meili! Watch your words. Do you think what you just said is what an aspiring educated youth should say? As educated youth going to the countryside to support construction, we must be careful with our words and actions and must not bring shame to the vast majority of educated youth who have gone to the countryside."

"Brother Chu... Comrade Chu Ge is right, Comrade Wang Meili, you must examine yourself carefully. We went to the countryside to support construction, not to show off our superiority." The long-haired educated youth nodded in agreement.

After being talked over by the two, Wang Meili reluctantly lowered her head and kept silent.

"Comrade, I apologize to you on her behalf. She is young and ignorant, so don't blame her." A male educated youth wearing glasses who was standing diagonally opposite smiled at Shen Zhihuan.

Shen Zhihuan twitched the corners of his mouth in extreme speechlessness.

Young? Ignorant? Perhaps noticing the mockery in Shen Zhihuan's eyes, the male educated youth wearing glasses touched his nose awkwardly.

It would have been fine if the male educated youth wearing glasses hadn't said anything, but as soon as he mentioned Wang Meili, she exploded.

"He Tianming, you apologize on my behalf? Are you worthy?"

"He Tianming, I tell you, my mother agreed, but I didn't. You should stay away from me in the future. Do you hear me?" Wang Meili said while nervously glancing at Chu Ge, who was wearing a white shirt next to the driver's seat.

Shen Zhihuan lowered his eyes, the smile on his lips deepening.

I’m afraid that Production Team 10 will be very lively in the future!
