Chapter 104 Unexpected encounter(1/2)
Jiang Chuyang watched Jiang Dongju and her family disappear from the gate.
Xiao Hongshu and Jiang Xiulan were called.
Continue to choose cotton-padded jackets that suit them.
They were all fine originally, one for each person.
It feels good when worn on my body.
But after Jiang Xiulan paid.
I was shocked by the price of cotton-padded jackets.
Small sweet potatoes cost six yuan a piece.
They cost eight yuan for adults.
This plus the one chosen for Li Hongyu.
That's thirty yuan gone.
This does not include the money I paid for the cotton-padded jacket for the little rice ball.
"My third sister, what's your expression!" Jiang Chuyang couldn't help but laugh when he looked at Jiang Xiulan.
"It's really not possible... I don't want to buy a cotton-padded jacket." Xiao Hongshu thought Jiang Xiulan didn't have enough money, so she couldn't help but raise her little head and said.
"It's okay if you don't buy it." Jiang Xiulan lowered her voice and said, "It's just that I really didn't expect that this cotton-padded jacket would be so expensive to buy ready-made."
"I think it's okay, but compared with agricultural products, it is indeed a bit expensive." Speaking of this, Jiang Chuyang glanced around: "Third sister, if you bring enough money, just pay it! Otherwise, I won't tell you next time.
I can’t buy it anymore.”
The reason why I say this.
That's because as a reborn person.
We know that prices in 1979 were quite different from those after 1980.
At that time, this eight yuan will cost you a purely handmade cotton coat made of pure cotton.
I'm afraid you won't be able to buy it without twenty or thirty yuan.
After all, it was the 1980s.
Everyone knows about the reform and opening up.
And everyone has more money in their pockets.
Correspondingly, prices will continue to rise.
Although Jiang Xiulan didn't know the inside story.
But he didn't say anything more.
After all, Jiang Chuyang earned the money.
Have the right to spend money.
Of course, the more important point is.
While they have money, they really should get a new cotton-padded jacket.
Otherwise, it would be too shabby, and sometimes I would not dare to go out to meet people.
Seeing that there was no one else around, Jiang Xiulan carefully took out the money she brought from her inner pocket.
Then he counted it three times and handed the money for the cotton-padded jacket to the buyer.
Jiang Chuyang packed the cotton-padded jacket.
Put it in the basket.
Wait until Jiang Xiulan settles the account.
Carrying a basket with small sweet potatoes, she walked towards the counter selling grains and oils.
On the way, he also bought three sets of fishing gear, as well as some fishing lines and hooks.
As for the fishing rod, I didn’t buy it because it was too expensive and I couldn’t bear the weight of the big fish.
After all, unlike a few decades later, there were all kinds of fishing tackle in 1979.
Among them, the good fishing rods have no problem not to mention catching river fish weighing more than ten kilograms, but also catching sharks.
But now, looking at the old-fashioned 'four-section fishing rod' placed on the counter, Jiang Chuyang shook his head.
To put it bluntly, if you go back and cut down a piece of market bamboo, the result will be better than what is sold here.
So it’s better to save money if you can and not buy it.
This thought fell.
Suddenly I realized that Jiang Xiulan was not following.
Looking back, I realized that Jiang Xiulan was hesitating in front of a counter selling pechoin.
Pechoin was an upstart in skin care products in 1979.
According to the young wives and aunts in the village.
Once applied, the skin will feel soft and smooth.
And Jiang Xiulan has never used skin care products since she was a child.
This is where I saw the counter where I bought Pechoin.
It would be strange not to stop and watch.
Jiang Chuyang saw Jiang Xiulan's thoughts.
I saw that I had no intention of buying it.
Then he walked to the counter carrying the basket.
I ordered four boxes of Pechoin at once.
Pechoin in the 1970s.
It's in the original blue iron box.
It doesn't look big, but a box costs eighty cents.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiulan stopped her and said, "Chu Yang, why did you buy so many? One box at most is enough!"
"I didn't buy it for you, I bought it for mom, and there are small sweet potatoes." Jiang Chuyang said with a smile.
Seeing the buyer smile and hand over the four packed boxes of Pechoin, he urged: "Third Sister, stop looking and pay."
After saying that, he took the Pechoin and carried the basket and left.
"Hehe, fourth brother, do I have Xiangxiang too?" Xiao Hongshu followed happily with her short legs.
Xiangxiang refers to skin care products such as Pechoin.
"Of course." Jiang Chuyang replied.
When Jiang Xiulan in front of the counter heard this, she was stunned and smiled warmly in her heart.
After paying three yuan and two cents, I quickly chased after him.
She is not stupid, Jiang Chuyang definitely deserves these four boxes of Pechoin.
It's just for her sake and I don't want to criticize her in person.
…
after an hour.
I finally bought all the things I needed to buy.
The baskets were piled full.
Jiang Chuyang picked it up and tested his shoulders.
Good guy, the pole made a clicking sound.
And his back couldn't straighten anymore.
In other words, this load of stuff.
It must be at least one or two hundred pounds.
Jiang Xiulan looked at it and couldn't help but said: "I told you to buy less, but you didn't believe it. Now that it's better, how can you pick it back after seeing it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Jiang Laosan from the same village driving an ox cart and appeared in a hurry.
When Xiao Hongshu saw this, he quickly ran over to say hello.
I don’t know what the little girl was chirping.
After running back, he called Jiang Chuyang to pick up the load and get on the oxcart.
Then we headed west and returned to Jiangjiacun.
