Chapter 1789: Chapter 1789: Returning Fully Loaded 10

Then, Cheng Baoguo used up all the Cotton Tickets and Cloth Tickets. The saleswoman was an old acquaintance, actually the daughter-in-law of a certain cadre. She had been in this position for many years and, with her reminder, Cheng Baoguo found out about so defective cloth. He promptly bought two large pieces, totaling twenty feet of work cloth and twenty feet of cotton cloth, each half a bolt.

Seeing several brightly colored scarves hanging inside the counter, Cheng Baoguo bought a bright red one for Fubao, and also purchased a large piece of high-priced silk, which didn’t require tickets, from the Hangzhou Silk Factory.

Erxiong dragged Dundun and Zhuangzhuang around in circles, not finding anything they liked, sullenly following behind them.

Cheng Baoguo turned around and asked Ye Yan, “What do you want to buy? Just say it.”

“I eat well and dress warmly, there’s nothing I want.” Ye Yan pondered seriously for a mont, “Grandpa Cheng, people say it’s inconvenient to shop in the countryside, give so money and Grain Tickets, I want to buy things myself.”

Without a second thought, Cheng Baoguo pulled out thirty yuan and ten pounds of Grain Tickets for him.

The children in their family are all very well-behaved and won’t buy things recklessly, so Cheng Baoguo gave him the money without hesitation, plus Ye Yan had always been very obedient.

Ye Yan, with his canvas satchel slung over his shoulder, pulled Fubao over to the counter selling sweets and pastries, handed over the money and tickets, “Auntie, I want two pounds of White Rabbit candies, two pounds of Mi Sandao, and two pounds of Yangjiao Mi.”

“Didn’t you all just buy so?” The saleswoman rembered them well.

Ye Yan replied sweetly, “That was Grandpa buying, now I’m buying for my little sister.”

A pound of pastries required six taels of Grain Tickets, while high-priced milk candies didn’t require tickets, but were expensive, costing five yuan per pound. Ye Yan tucked away the change and tickets, stuffed the milk candies and four pounds of pastries into his satchel, patted the bulging bag, and said to Fubao, “I bought them for you, don’t tell anyone else, keep them for yourself.”

“But why? Third Grandpa bought a lot,” Fubao thought it was very strange.

Ye Yan reasoned, “Brother Xibao and Dundun have said, since there are many children at ho, if you share it around whenever you et them, how much will be left of the candies and pastries? You wouldn’t get to eat any.”

Fubao pursed her lips, revealing deep dimples on her cheeks, “Thank you, Brother Ye Yan.”

The two of them returned hand in hand to Cheng Baoguo, who was still busy buying things, with packages large and small that couldn’t be carried all at once. Cheng Baoguo called Xibao without hesitation to carry the fabric back first, then asked soone to help out, ideally having Lu Tianzhi drive the tractor over so they could head directly to the grain and oil store to buy oil and grain, borrowing the Zhao Family’s equipnt for loading grain and oil.

With a fine-to-coarse ratio of about three to seven, Cheng Baoguo first bought half of it, which was still three to four hundred pounds.

Approaching the year-end, the at store had long run out of at, and Cheng Baoguo sighed plaintively holding the at Tickets.

Zhao Anbang laughed, “Uncle Cheng, give the at Tickets, I’ll rest on so day and get up early to line up and buy for you guys and bring them over, otherwise, by the ti you co over from ho, the at would be sold out already.”

Cheng Baoguo considered it, “Alright, you bring the at back, and we’ll treat you to a good al.”

Seeing half a truckload of items squeezing people together so they could only sit without lying down, Lu Tianzhi clicked his tongue and looked at the watch on his wrist, “Uncle Zhao, it’s getting late, we have to go back, see you.”

Zhao Anbang waved to them, “See you, see you.”

Anyway, he frequently went to the countryside to Wanglou Brigade, so he didn’t mind the parting this ti.
