"You have cloth coupons, right? Some materials don't require coupons, but some materials still require coupons."
Mo Yan looked at Pei Dongdong, "Baby, do we have tickets?"
Pei Dongdong looked at his cheap mother helplessly, then nodded at the salesperson.
"Auntie, we have cloth coupons, there are quite a lot of them, but my grandma hid them away before and didn't let us use them, and now they are about to expire."
No wonder!
She said, why did these two people buy so much cloth when they were wearing tattered clothes? It turned out that the cloth coupons at home were about to expire.
"Okay, let me calculate how much it will cost and how many tickets it will cost."
The salesperson took out an abacus and counted the beads while quoting the price, then added up the numbers one by one and finally gave a total.
The one who paid for the tickets was still the little cub Pei Dongdong, the chief financial officer.
God knows how wide the salesperson's mouth opened when he saw that the person counting money one cent at a time was actually a child.
Because cutting the cloth would take time, Mo Yan made an appointment with the salesperson to pick up the cloth from the fabric counter after buying other things.
People of this era have no concept of cutting corners or shortchanging others, and their basic moral bottom line is still quite high.
Of course, people like Pei Guoping, Pei Mingren and Wang Cuihong, who are born evil, are exceptions.
Next, Zhuzi saw how powerful Mo Yan and her daughter were.
First, there was the biscuit and snack counter, selling glutinous rice cakes, malted milk, canned oranges, White Rabbit milk candy, fruit candy, rice flower candy, Shanghai brand scallion biscuits...
As long as there was something on the counter, Mo Yan would buy several kilograms with a wave of his hand.
The backpack was half full of snacks wrapped in newspapers alone. Zhuzi wanted to carry the backpack, but he couldn't do it. His dark little face looked red, but it had actually turned red a long time ago.
Seeing this, Mo Yan smiled knowingly, "It's too heavy, I'll do it."
As he said that, he easily lifted it up with one hand, threw it behind his back, and then placed it on her shoulder.
"Aunt, I can carry it." Zhuzi shouted hurriedly.
We agreed that after eating the delicious meal, you would work for your aunt.
As a result, the backpack was not passive.
Zhuzi felt so embarrassed.
"I know Zhuzi can carry it, but I have a lot of things to buy, and I need Zhuzi's help to lead the way. I'll carry the backpack first, and Zhuzi will help me get the other things later."
"Okay, Auntie, it's agreed that you have to let me take the other things!"
Zhuzi was afraid that Mo Yan would not ask him to carry things, which would make him seem useless.
Mo Yan agreed immediately. The little cub is very motivated and he should not be discouraged.
Next, Mo Yan simply didn't ask Zhuzi to lead the way. She just went through each counter one by one.
When you see something inside that you don’t have and need, you buy it without hesitation.
If you have tickets, buy more. If you come across a ticket that doesn’t require any money, just buy it as if it were free.
Zhuzi was panicked at the beginning and wanted to ask his aunt several times if he could live with the family after buying the products like this.
And how could there be so much money and tickets in Niu Niu’s little bamboo bag?
Sister Niu Niu actually knew all the money and she calculated it quickly and accurately. None of the after-sales aunties could compare to her.
No wonder my aunt, an adult, dared to give all the money and tickets to my little sister Niu Niu for safekeeping.
The thoughts in Zhuzi's mind had changed from panic in the beginning, to amazement later, and finally he was just like a puppet, watching stupidly from the side.
As for the thing about helping, I almost wanted to swallow it back.
Because you can’t take it all, you can’t take it all at all.
As time passed by, Zhuzi began to get anxious.
"Aunt, it's time for the oxcart to go home. Should we buy more? If we buy more, we will miss the return car."
What Zhuzi meant was that if you bought so many things without using a ox cart, it would be impossible for the three of them, one adult and two children, to carry them back.
Mo Yan had never thought about this question.
Now that Zhuzi reminded him, Mo Yan thought about it and realized that it was true.
Originally, she had not planned to take the ox cart back home, but now that she thought about it, she could walk with Niu Niu in her arms, but she couldn’t carry things, so it seemed that she had to take the ox cart.
"Zhu Zi, how about this? You go to your grandfather and ask him to drive the bullock cart to the door of the supply and marketing cooperative. There are too many things. Put them directly on the bullock cart to save us the time of carrying them over one by one."
Zhuzi thought the same thing and nodded, "Don't worry, Auntie, I'll go right away. I'm a very fast runner."
"Wait, have some candy to sweeten your mouth!"
Mo Yan grabbed the black boy who was about to run away and stuffed a White Rabbit into his mouth.
Zhuzi was stunned for two seconds, and then he tasted the sweetness in his mouth and came to his senses. It turned out to be the most expensive milk candy.
The candy was quite big, and it stuffed my mouth full. I couldn’t speak, so I could only wave at it and run away.
"My dear, do we need to buy anything else?"
Mo Yan thought that there was still some time and he could buy more for a while.
"Mom, we've bought too many things. They will be very conspicuous when we return to the village later."
Pei Dongdong looked a little helpless as he said to Mo Yan.
"It's okay to attract attention. We bought it with our own money. We can't put ourselves in a difficult position just because we don't want to attract attention. My dear, this is not advisable. Remember, no matter what time it is, you must choose to suppress yourself for the sake of other people's attention. This is the first lesson I will teach you today."
Pei Dongdong puffed up her cheeks. She knew Mo Yan would have this kind of personality.
But this is, well, good.
It was someone she had never been able to become in her entire life.
Maybe with Mo Yan in this life, she will be able to live as free and easy as Mo Yan's mother one day.
"I see. Then let's buy a few more pairs of shoes! Especially for you, mom. You are so strong and you will have to go into the mountains to hunt in the future. You will need to buy a few more pairs of shoes."
"Okay, I'll go see what the little leather shoes Zhuzi mentioned look like and see if there are any that my good boy can wear."
"Mom, I'm still little. Who would waste money to buy leather shoes for such a little girl? Even if there are leather shoes for girls, they are definitely not available here. They can only be found in big cities."
Mo Yan didn't believe it, so she went to the shoe counter and found out that there were no shoes for babies. Not to mention leather shoes, there were not even flowered cloth shoes for such a young girl.
As for the leather shoes worn by adults, they did exist, but from Mo Yan's perspective, they were so black and ugly.
Thinking about Peijia Village, leather shoes are less useful than straw sandals. However, in the corner at the bottom of the counter, Mo Yan saw a pair of half-high leather boots with thick soles, and her eyes lit up.
This style is a bit like the combat boots of later generations. This pair of shoes is quite suitable for going into the woods.
"how much is this?"
