At this time, a girl with fair skin and big eyes ran in from outside.
She walked into the counter with ease and whispered to the cloth salesperson;
"Cousin, as soon as I heard there was some defective cloth, I rushed over right away. Pretty fast, right?"
Ruan Mengmeng, who was about to leave, had a strong mental strength, so no matter how soft the voice was, she heard it all.
Defective cloth? Ruan Mengmeng's eyes lit up. Yeah, how could she have forgotten? In this era, there were defective goods, and they said they didn't even require a ticket...
I just don’t have enough cloth coupons, so paying a little more is acceptable!
Thinking of this, she stopped, turned her head and stared at the two of them.
Bai Jingjing, who was still talking happily to her cousin, felt Ruan Mengmeng's gaze.
She stopped talking and turned around at the same time as her cousin Yu Xixi, looking inquiringly at them.
"Comrade, is there anything else?"
Saleswoman Yu Xixi asked doubtfully;
Ruan Mengmeng looked around and saw that there were not many people around. She took a few steps forward, moved closer to Yu Xixi and said in a low voice;
"Just now, I heard you talk about defective cloth..."
That didn't mean Xixi refused. She took out half a pound of brown sugar from her bag, or actually from her space.
Under the cover of the shoulder bag, he secretly stuffed it into Yu Qianqian's hand.
Yu Qianqian's expression remained unchanged upon hearing her words. She squeezed the item in her hand and marveled inwardly: This little girl is quite savvy...
It's a defective product anyway, so I won't sell it to anyone, so I might as well sell it to the girl in front of me.
Looking at the brown sugar in her hand, Yu Qianqian saw that she had good eyesight and thought secretly in her heart.
Then he exchanged glances with his cousin Bai Jingjing and nodded silently;
“Follow me…”
As he said that, he pulled Bai Jingjing up and walked behind the counter.
Ruan Mengmeng didn't hesitate and immediately took her younger brother Ruan Zilong's hand and followed happily.
Yu Qianqian led the three of them, turned a few corners, and arrived at the backyard.
The yard is not big, only a few dozen square meters, and there are several locked rooms in the yard.
She approached one of the doors, took the key from her pocket, and opened it.
The sunlight came in, and Ruan Mengmeng and the others could see the scene inside the house clearly.
The wooden shelves were filled with various items. Ruan Mengmeng and the others had their mouths wide open and their eyes shining.
Are these all defective products? There's really a wide variety of items. If you don't need a ticket, you can buy them all! Ruan Mengmeng thought to herself.
Looking at the expressions of the three people, Yu Qianqian laughed in her heart, thinking that they had never seen the world.
She had been working at the supply and marketing cooperative for so many years, what had she not seen? Was it just a few defective products? Was there any need to make such a fuss?
He looked at the others' eyes again and without waiting for them to ask, he explained directly;
"You guessed right! These are all defective products. They have minor flaws, but they don't actually affect their use!"
Seeing a few people, he nodded at her and continued;
"But, if you mind, then don't buy it. These items don't require receipts..."
Ruan Mengmeng and the others hurriedly shook their heads when they heard this;
"No, no!"
Yu Qianqian was quite satisfied with their answers, so she stopped asking questions and said directly;
"Then you guys pick it out! Once you've chosen, I'll help you calculate the price..."
Ruan Mengmeng and the other person didn't hesitate and went straight to the shelves. Ruan Zilong was arranged by Ruan Mengmeng to wait at the door.
Seeing so many things, Ruan Mengmeng was surprised. After all, they were all necessities of life, so she could take this opportunity to buy more.
If you can’t use it all, put it in the space and you won’t have to rush when you need it later.
Besides, the two of them were already preparing to go to the countryside, and many things needed to be prepared in advance.
Seeing the ones that could be used, Ruan Mengmeng chose them without hesitation.
Two enamel basins, four toothbrushes and four toothpastes, two thermos bottles at home, and I bought two more as backups, and two small casseroles, as I didn't have any at home, so I used them to make soup.
When Ruan Mengmeng saw the whole piece of cloth, her eyes glowed green like a mouse seeing rice.
She is not a clumsy person. She is very skillful and can not only make clothes but also small items.
Unfortunately, the things in the space are not suitable for this era and cannot be taken out for the time being.
I asked for five pieces directly, one of which was a red piece with floral patterns for myself, which could be used to make a cotton-padded jacket or a skirt.
This color is common in this era, there is no choice, so I just followed the crowd and ordered one.
Two khaki ones and two dark blue ones, they are dirt-resistant and look elegant. You don’t have to worry about getting dirty when you go to the countryside in the future!
We continued to choose a few pairs of shoes, cloth shoes, two pairs for each person, and leather shoes, one pair for each person...
I already have other small items, such as needles and thread, at home, and I have enough space, so I didn’t waste any more money!
After making her selection, Ruan Mengmeng piled up all the things she wanted in one place and signaled Yu Qianqian to pay for her.
Bai Jingjing, who was standing next to him, ran over with only a piece of red cloth with floral patterns;
"Cousin, I want this..."
She wanted to make a skirt. This pattern was very popular recently, but her family didn't have many cloth coupons, so she found her cousin.
"Okay, wait, I'll calculate it for you after I finish calculating it for her!"
Although they are relatives and you can use the back door, you still have to pay.
Ten minutes later...
The two of them paid in a hurry. Bai Jingjing had few things, so she could just carry them away. Looking at the pile of things on the ground, the brother and sister were in a dilemma.
Ruan Mengmeng had the space, but she didn't dare use it in front of everyone.
Looking at the worried siblings, Yu Qianqian collected the money and said with a smile;
"Don't be afraid, comrade. There's a cart at the corner of the backyard. You can use it. Just remember to return it after use..."
Ruan Mengmeng, who had come back to her senses from her own thoughts, heard Yu Qianqian's words and quickly responded with a smile;
"Thank you, comrade!"
"My last name is Yu, Yu Qianqian. I've been working at the supply and marketing cooperative for four or five years. You look young, about the same age as my cousin. From now on, you can call me Sister Yu!"
Seeing that she was a nice person and very understanding, Yu Qianqian didn't mind doing her a favor.
I know this is a sign to me that next time if I need anything, I can look for her.
Ruan Mengmeng was not stupid either. She quickly took out a box of mung bean cake from her pocket and handed it over.
Just today, I bought so many things, it’s more than just this favor, and Ruan Mengmeng doesn’t want to take advantage of others too much.
Yu Qianqian didn't hesitate to take it and put it in her pocket.
Ruan Zilong ran over and pulled the cart from the corner.
The two of them quickly loaded the things on the ground onto the cart.
Then, Ruan Mengmeng pushed the cart and Ruan Zilong helped to watch the things to prevent them from being shaken and falling.
After saying goodbye to Yu Qianqian and the other two, the brother and sister left through the back door.
The cart was in Ruan Mengmeng's hands. After turning left and right for a while, they arrived at a remote alley.
Under the puzzled gaze of his younger brother Ruan Zilong, Ruan Mengmeng first used his mental power to sense the surroundings. Finding that there was no one, he wrapped up all the things on the cart and put them into the space!
