Although this county town looks much more prosperous than their Xiangyun Village, it is far from comparable to Shui Yao, who lives in the metropolis all year round. If nothing else, the buildings on both sides of the road are low and low, and there are few of them.

Shui Yao walked around for a long time, and he didn't see many people on the street, so he estimated that he should all go to work at this point, and most of the rest came from nearby villages. They all have yellow and thin faces, and their faces and bodies together may not have a few taels of flesh.

Such a discovery made Shui Yao have to sigh at the poverty of this era. Alas, it was so poor!

However, due to the limited time, Shui Yao did not dare to delay for too long, and she did not forget the purpose of coming to the county seat this time. So, I casually found a way to sit down, ate the eggs stuffed to her by Shui Daquan in two bites, and rushed directly to the supply and marketing cooperative.

In this era, the supply and marketing cooperatives are very pompous places, and the people who can come here to work are all eating public food, but there are not many people who can afford to buy things. Because resources are scarce at this time, many things cannot be bought even if you have money, and you have to exchange them with tickets.

Shui Yao entered the supply and marketing cooperative, and found that there were no customers inside. There were a few things on the shelves, and the ceiling fan overhead was pointing and turning, and the whole room looked very dull. Maybe it's because no one has come to the door for too long, and even the saleswoman is yawning boredly at this time.

"Hello, may I ask ......"

Before Shui Yao's words were finished, he was interrupted by the salesperson. I saw her lazily stretching out her hand and pointing to the shelf, not even bothering to lift her eyelids.

"Everything is there, see for yourself what you want."

Shui Yao glanced at the shelves, on which there were a pair of rubber shoes, a few towels and two bars of soap, and two wilted cucumbers that seemed to have long run out of water.

But after looking for a long time, there was nothing Shui Yao wanted to buy. Seeing that the salesman was about to fall asleep again, Shui Yao had no choice but to wake people up.

"Hello, comrade, do you still have cloth here?"

At this time, it was noon, and the sweltering heat made the saleswoman extremely irritable, and when she heard that someone wanted to buy cloth, she forcibly cheered up.

But when she reluctantly opened her eyes and saw the rustic water in front of her, the whole person was on fire: these days, there are many people who can't afford to wear clothes. Such a local girl estimated that she came here on purpose to make trouble, so poor and sour, where can she afford to buy cloth!

After sorting out the joints, the saleswoman didn't even bother to look at Shui Yao again, and her words were full of contempt that she couldn't ignore.

"Yo, are you really here to buy cloth? Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you want to buy cloth, this money and tickets are the same, do you have these things? ”​

As soon as Shui Yao saw that the other party's attitude was not good, he knew that the saleswoman did not take herself into her eyes, thinking that she was a rural person and could not afford to buy cloth.

However, Shui Yao was not annoyed by the salesman's contempt, but took out Zhang Dajie and a few cloth tickets from his pocket lightly, put these things in front of the salesman and said: "What kind of cloth did I bring with me money and tickets, you can just take them out."

Looking at that new big unity, the saleswoman suddenly came to the spirit.

"Hey, okay, wait a minute, I'll get it for you, we have more kinds of cloth here......"

For the salesperson's deferential attitude, Shui Yao is not surprised. After all, in her previous life, she dominated the mall for many years, and she climbed up from the bottom step by step. For such a person who has milk and is a mother, it is natural that she will make up where she has more money, and he has seen a lot of this kind of person.

After the saleswoman laid out the cloth in the same way, she introduced it to Shui Yao endlessly.

"Girl, this is really good in fashion, you go to the street and see, who is not a man with good conditions at home?"

"This kind of material is light and comfortable, not to mention, even if you take it and wash it casually, it will not be deformed no matter how many times you wash it! Look at this color, how bright it is, this print is also good-looking, and it looks very foreign on the body! But the price is a bit expensive, five dollars a foot, how much do you want? ”

For the salesman's mouth blowing to the sky, Shui Yao is not very interested. In her opinion, this is indeed a good dress to wear on the body, not only not close to the body in summer~ body, not cold in winter, as soon as it encounters water, it immediately becomes transparent, she is a big girl's family, walking on the street, in case it touches the water and goes away, it will be a shame ~ hair!

The most important thing is that this time Shui Yao ripped the cloth mainly to make clothes for Shui Daquan and himself. His father worked in the mine every day, and he sweated a lot, so it was indeed inconvenient to wear it on his body to work.

So, even though the salesman in front of him was foaming at the mouth, Shui Yao still shook his head and politely refused: "Comrade, I want to see your cotton cloth here, and I won't take it today."

When the salesman heard this, the smile on his face suddenly fell, and his expression was as ugly as eating a fly. I saw that she embarrassedly put down the real good in her hand, flew towards Shui Yao and rolled her eyes, and kept muttering: "Cut, it's really a hillbilly, don't say it earlier, it will make me waste my tongue for a long time!"

After that, the salesman walked slowly to the corner of the counter and reluctantly took out the cotton cloth: "The cotton cloth costs two yuan a foot, and if you want to exchange it, you have to add another cloth ticket." Do you want blue, or green? ”

Looking at the saleswoman's suddenly cold attitude, Shui Yao was not annoyed, but thought for a while, and then replied: "Comrade, please pull me a three-foot blue cloth and a three-foot green cloth." After that, take a piece of soap, two towels, and five catties of coarse grain! ”

After Shui Yao finished speaking, he handed over the money and tickets quickly, and the salesman looked at the food stamps in Shui Yao's hand, rolled his eyes directly, and said in a weird manner: "It's really out of a nest in the horns, even if you haven't seen the world, you really want a lot of things!" But there are soaps and towels, and the food is gone, so you have to go to the Food Bureau with the grain purchase certificate to change it! ”

Then he scolded and handed the things to Shui Yao, and dozed off again.

Shui Yao put away the things, folded them neatly, and put them in his small back basket. After that, after taking the food stamps and change, he smiled helplessly: it seems that he has not adapted to this era, and he almost forgot that he has to get a certificate if he wants to exchange food here. But fortunately, when she came out in the morning, Shui Daquan knew that she was coming to buy food, so he gave her the food purchase certificate in advance.

This county is really not big, after coming out of the supply and marketing cooperative, Shui Yao asked someone for directions, and found that the grain bureau was not too far from the supply and marketing cooperative, and walked for about ten minutes. After that, after packing the food in a small cloth bag brought from home, he walked out of the food bureau.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for dinner. After a busy morning, Shui Yao finally bought all the things. At this time, she was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back. Putting down the basket and stopping, Shui Yao took a few rough breaths, then took out a hand towel to wipe his sweat, and decided to find a place to fill his stomach first, and then think about the afternoon itinerary.

The "Workers, Peasants and Soldiers" hotel is the best hotel in the county. As soon as I arrived at the door, the fragrance from inside was so greedy that I swallowed my saliva, and even my stomach shouted to resist~ and discuss.

Rou rou's rumbling stomach, Shui Yao shook his head helplessly: Now, I am becoming more and more unlucky, I have never eaten any delicacies from the mountains and seas in my previous life, and my taste is also famous. I didn't expect that now in such an era when birds don't, they can have such a strong desire for coarse tea and light rice here~ Wang.

After entering the door, Shui Yao found a place to sit down, asked for a bowl of green vegetable noodles for himself, and ordered a bottle of Arctic Ocean soda. After a while, the waiter brought the thing. Looking at the bowl of green vegetable noodles in front of him, Shui Yao had no choice but to hold his forehead. In my heart, I couldn't help but greet the ancestors of God again before I refused to give up.

The bowl of noodles in front of her was not as big as her palm. Not only that, but there is also little soup and water in it, and the noodles are sparse and lala, and the few are pitiful. The noodles themselves are not made purely from fine grains, and the gray color makes Shui Yao know that this is a mixture of fine grains and sweet potato noodles.

It's called "green vegetable noodles", but it's barely enough: there are two wilted sweet potato leaves scattered on the noodles, and it seems that this dish has been sitting for a while. But even so, Shui Yao still couldn't bear the hunger and devoured it.

The noodles themselves are not chewy at all, and there is nothing to praise them except for a hint of salt. But at this time, for Shui Yao, who had been running all morning and hadn't eaten much breakfast, this was a top-notch delicacy.

Shui Yao snorted and pulled a bowl of noodles in three or two sips, and then picked up the soda bottle and drank two large sips. There was something in her stomach, and now she felt like she was alive again.

"Ah, that's comfortable."

After eating and drinking, Shui Haruka sighed contentedly. As soon as he took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth clean and was about to leave, the waiter's vulgar and mean scolding rushed into Shui Yao's ears.

"Where's the little bunny? What are you doing standing in front of our hotel? There is no money to wander around here, which hinders Lao Tzu's eyes! ”

Shui Yao looked back and saw that it was a half-grown boy, at this time, he was desperately poking his head into the restaurant, his eyes glued to the soda bottle, no matter how much the waiter scolded.

Seeing this, Shui Yao really couldn't see it, so he took the remaining half bottle of soda and walked to the door, and at the same time, regardless of the waiter's fierce eyes, he pulled the little boy in, squatted down, and asked softly.

"Little brother~ brother, do you want to drink this? What about your family? ”
