    ?

    Five o'clock, I really worked hard.

    Thank you Xia for your reward!

    "Hehe, all girls are like this, who doesn't love beauty?"

    "But no one else is as evil as they are."

    The two came to the building talking and laughing.  Zhang Hongmei went straight to the sugar counter.

    "Comrade, is brown sugar limited to purchase?"

    "Yes, up to five catties per person."

    "Okay, let's issue a ticket, ten catties for two people."

    Liu Jingze stood behind Zhang Hongmei, smiling and not speaking.

    "Comrade, give me two catties of fruit candy, is there any white sugar?"

    "The purchase limit of white sugar is two catties per person."

    "Then bring another four catties of sugar."

    Sixteen catties of sugar is a lot, Zhang Hongmei still wants to go shopping.  Wait until the salesperson has all the sugar ready.  Zhang Hongmei didn't want to carry it anymore.  "Comrade, can I put it here with you first? I'll come back and get it when I go back later?"

    "Zhong, let me go first."

    Zhang Hongmei rushed to the condiment counter again, looked at it and bought two catties of fermented soybeans, which cost 50 cents a catty without a ticket.

    Liu Jingze took the initiative to pay, and Zhang Hongmei didn't argue with him.

    Soy sauce and vinegar can¡¯t be bought. If you don¡¯t have a bottle or a place to store it, you can wrap the fermented soy sauce in paper.

    The next thing is to buy pastries. There are more kinds of pastries in the building than in the village, but because of the drought, there are only three kinds of pastries, peach cakes, glutinous rice noodles, and jujube cakes, and the purchase is limited, so you need a pastry ticket.

    Forget it, go back and do it yourself.

    "Hongmei, I have a few pastry tickets in my hand, which is only three catties."

    "I won't buy it, I'll go back and make it myself."

    "Can you still make pastries?"

    "I haven't done it before, it shouldn't be difficult."

    "That's right, everything you do is delicious."

    Zhang Hongmei thinks about going home and fried twist, salty or sweet, can be considered a high standard as a gift.

    Turned around on the first floor.  I have nothing else to buy, so I went to the second floor to buy paper and pens for the children.

    On the second floor, I bought fifty notebooks, fifty pencils, and fifty erasers.

    "Hongmei, you bought so much because you want to go back and distribute it to the children in the village?"

    "Yes, I taught them how to read last year, and this year more than a dozen children have gone to school. This is a reward for them, and a gift for children who have not gone to school."

    Zhang Hongmei saw a large sheet of rice paper.  "Comrade, how do you sell rice paper?"

    "Two cents a piece."

    "Can you buy more? Can you sell me this bundle? Our village hasn't changed the window paper for two years."

    "Come on, here are one hundred tickets, and I will invoice you."

    Liu Jingze took the initiative to pay, Zhang Hongmei thought about it and didn't refuse, just go back and tell everyone that Liu Jingze bought it for everyone.

    Didn't go up to the third floor. "Brother Jingze, let's go to the non-staple food supply station to see if there is anything delicious."

    "Don't you have anything to buy? It's not for your own use."

    "I don't lack anything, so I'm leaving."

    Liu Jingze found a way, put all the things he bought into the basket, and followed Zhang Hongmei out of the building.

    When I arrived at the non-staple food supply station, I happened to meet the leader.

    "The little girl is here to buy something?"

    "Yes, sir, do we have any sugar here? There is not enough sugar for the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."

    "Yes, but I can only sell you ten catties. The supply is too small. Our city only gave two tons of brown sugar, one thousand catties of white sugar, and one thousand catties of sugar cubes. One point to the supply and marketing cooperatives below is basically nothing.  Not much left."

    "Thank you, leader. Give me five catties of white sugar and five catties of sugar cubes."

    "Come on, do you have a dick outfit?"

    "Yes, I brought a cloth bag."

    "Give it to me, you just stay here and see if there is anything you want to buy, and I will send it to you in a while."

    "Hongmei, how do you know the leaders here?"

    "It means that most of the vegetables grown in our village are sold here after the rain and before the autumn harvest."

    "Does our village still sell vegetables?"

    "Well, it's been sold for almost a month."

    "Isn't it all dead when it's shipped here?"

    "It was the village head who rode a bicycle carrying more than 300 catties of vegetables every day. My third uncle also drove to the city in an ox cart, and the bicycle returned halfway to pick it up."

    "Too hard." Liu JingI can't help but sigh.

    "Yes, Wang Hongxi is a very hardworking village chief."

    Zhang Hongmei found out that there were tofu sellers.  But where to put it?

    "Brother Jingze, you put down the basket and go to the building to buy a pot. Let's buy some pieces of tofu."

    "Okay, I'll be back in a while."

    The staff here also know Zhang Hongmei, so if she wants to buy tofu, it is natural to keep it for her.

    "Auntie, where is this tofu made?"

    "Someone sent it here, and it was a relative of the director's family. What's the matter?"

    "I just want to ask him to make me a plate of tofu. There are many people in the family."

    "Just ask the director directly and you will win. There should be no problem."

    Zhang Hongmei wanted to greet Dashan, the others, and Liu Jianguo for a meal before returning to the village. Tofu was considered a fresh dish.

    After a while, the leader just now came over with three bags and handed them to Zhang Hongmei.  "You go directly to the cashier to pay and you win."

    "Leader, can you ask the tofu maker to help me make tofu within two or three days?"

    "If you want to come here the day after tomorrow, you will win. I will tell him today."

    "Okay, I'll come over tomorrow morning to pack. I'll pay you first."

    "No, just give it to the tofu maker that day and you'll be hit."

    "Is there nothing else you need?"

    "Yes, I just want to buy eggs."

    "I can't do anything about it. People can't get enough to eat. How can there be food to feed chickens?"

    Zhang Hongmei doesn't have much space left, it should be enough for the annual ceremony, so she doesn't worry about it any more.

    When Liu Jingze came back, the salesperson gave Zhang Hongmei water to wash the basin before filling her with two pieces of tofu.

    Liu Jingze carried the basket on his back, and Zhang Hongmei carried the basin, talking and laughing all the way home.

    At noon, there are pancakes with Sanhe noodles, spicy tofu, and fried cabbage.

    "Brother Jingze, let's go to the cotton mill and the power supply bureau in the afternoon, ask them to come over for dinner on Sunday, the day after tomorrow, and ask if they can go home."

    "Okay, let's just be free now, I'll go with you wherever you want."

    Zhang Hongmei didn't feel that there was anything wrong with these words, and put a large spoonful of spicy tofu into her mouth beautifully.

    Liu Jingze looked at Zhang Hongmei's delicious food, and subconsciously put a spoonful into his mouth.

    After eating, Zhang Hongmei put the remaining pancakes into the lunch box.

    "Hongmei, are you bringing this to Jianguo?"

    "Well, there are too many people in Dashan, so there is nothing to do with this. I don't want to eat dry food at night, so I will bring them all to Brother Jianguo."

    Just now Liu Jingze felt that Zhang Hongmei was special to Liu Jianguo, and his heart was sour.

    "Hongmei, shall we leave now?"

    "Let's go, I have to find someone to call anyway."

    The two walked for more than half an hour before arriving at the cotton spinning factory. The gatekeeper looked at Zhang Hongmei happily, "Come to see Liu Jianguo? Wait a minute, I'll call you." (Remember this website: www.hlnovel.com  com
