Chapter 78 Visiting the Supply and Marketing Cooperative
"Get up early tomorrow and go with your grandparents to visit their home in the countryside."
"Okay, what time does it start?"
"Get up at half past five for dinner, and then your dad, your third brother, I, and I will take you on bicycles to the edge of the town to wait for the oxcart from the village. The oxcart will arrive in the town around 7:30, and we will wait there at around 7:00."
"good."
"Your grandparents are moving on Saturday. If you have nothing to do these days, go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy whatever you need at home. Then go to your dad to get the money later."
"I have money."
"It also costs tickets, because you don't live out and can't use the tickets, so they didn't give them to you when they divided the tickets for your brother."
"It's okay. I won't need it anyway, so it's expired. Will my brother and cousin ask for leave on Saturday to help move?"
"Yes, everyone will ask for leave to come and help when the time comes."
"What do we use to move? A bullock cart?"
"No, the Red Flag Brigade has a tractor. We plan to rent it for one day on Saturday. When we go back tomorrow, your grandpa will talk to the brigade leader about this."
"good."
Before his father went to work, Lin Jinxing went to his father to ask for a ticket. His father generously gave him a thousand yuan and a stack of tickets. There were all kinds of tickets, and he didn't know how many.
Anyway, there are more than a hundred, because this pile is thicker than her hundred.
I took out my own hundred tickets and sorted them out together with those given by my father. I kept the bicycle tickets, watch tickets and other tickets that I would definitely not use. I took ten kilograms of food stamps and put down the others...
"Grandma, let's go shopping and see what we can bring to the village tomorrow."
"Okay, let's go."
"Grandpa, are you going?"
"I won't go, you can just go and buy it."
"Is there anything you want, Grandpa?"
"If there is good wine, buy some, if not, forget it."
"good."
Lin Jinxing held her handbag and looked at the people carrying baskets and backpacks on the street. She felt that her handbag was a bit out of place.
"Grandma, I think we should buy a backpack or a basket."
"Okay, we'll buy one later."
The two first went to a place selling knitted goods and bought a backpack and a basket for one dollar and a half. The basket was put on Lin Jinxing's back and the basket was carried by Grandma Lin. Then they went to the supply and marketing cooperative and started shopping.
"Should we buy some candies? It's our first time in the village. Do we want to share some with everyone?"
"Buy some. I won't divide them when I go back tomorrow. I'll divide them after moving on Saturday. There are too many things on Saturday, so don't forget to buy them then."
"OK."
I bought five kilograms of candies, all of which were ordinary fruit candies. Compared with White Rabbit milk candies, Lin Jinxing preferred these fruit candies and sorghum candy.
Lin Jinxing bought two kilograms of sorghum glutinous rice for himself. He only ate this for himself. Lin Jinxing did not give out sorghum glutinous rice to the villagers because he was afraid that others would think he was stingy. Because sorghum glutinous rice is very cheap, cheaper than fruit candy and rock sugar.
Grandma Lin reminded: "We will buy a few more locks. Now there is only a lock on the door. That lock was given by the person who installed the door. That lock will have to be returned to others when the time comes."
"Okay, Lin Jinxing bought ten locks in total, for the front door, the door of the house, and the cabinet. It can be said that he was very thoughtful."
The first thing to spend was the ticket that Lin Jinxing had traded before. The expiration date of Lin Jinxing's ticket was earlier than the one given by his father today. It would be more secure to use it first and not worry about expiration.
"There are also kitchen utensils and tableware. The pot is too big. Let my dad buy it when he has time."
"OK."
Grab a spoon, shovel, chopsticks, and a set of ten blue flowered plates.
