A family of three goes through the ages, not being a saint and not helping the poor

Chapter 178 Shopping

A few minutes later, Chu Yiling and Meng Qiuping came to the stall selling thermos bottles and saw twenty or thirty thermos bottles on the stall. They all looked similar and were made of the same material as the two they had at home.

There is no need for them to choose.

So Meng Qiuping asked the stall owner directly: "Comrade, how much is this kettle?"

"Three dollars each, plus two industrial coupons."

"So expensive? I remember the supply and marketing cooperative only sold them for 2.80 yuan each."

"That's right, but we only need two industrial coupons, while the supply and marketing cooperative wants three. Does that mean we are getting a better deal?"

When Meng Qiuping heard what the stall owner said, she didn't know how to respond because to her they were all the same.

So she went straight to the stall owner and said, "Please help me tie up those two peony flower thermoses. I want them."

"Okay, that's six dollars in total plus four industrial coupons."

When Meng Qiuping heard what the stall owner said, she took out some money from her pocket and handed it to the stall owner. Then, while watching the stall owner tie up the thermos, she asked him about the news, "Comrade, why are you all gathering here to set up a stall?"

"Of course, it's so that you can buy more things to keep warm, so the county has teamed up with various factories to organize this market."

"So that's how it is. I was wondering why there was suddenly a market in the county."

“Hehe… Big sister, if you want to buy anything, hurry up and buy it, because today is the last day of the market.

After today, it won’t be so convenient for you to buy these things, because the supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores don’t always have these things for sale.”

"Thank you for reminding."

"You're welcome. I only said a few more words because I think you like me."

When Meng Qiuping heard what the stall owner said, she didn't say anything else, but smiled at him.

Just at this time, the stall owner had tied up the thermos, so she took the thermos from the stall owner and walked out of the market with Chu Yiling.

"Mom, aren't we going to go shopping anymore?"

"Of course we did, but our backpacks were already full, so we had to find a place to move the things in the backpacks first, otherwise we would have nowhere to put the things we bought later."

After hearing what Meng Qiuping said, Chu Yiling looked around and saw a public toilet not far away. She said to Meng Qiuping, "Mom, there is a public toilet over there. Let's go inside the public toilet and transfer."

"it is good."

Seven or eight minutes later, Chu Yiling and Meng Qiuping, who had finished transferring things, ran out of the public toilet holding their noses. Don't ask them why they did this, just try it for yourself and you will know.

"Lingling, let's move our things to another place next time."

"Okay, I don't want to go into this public toilet again. The smell in there is just too intoxicating."

"Stop talking. If you continue, I will feel physically ill."

Chu Yiling immediately changed the subject when she heard Meng Qiuping's words and said, "Let's go to the market and see if there's anything we need to buy."

"it is good."

A few minutes later, Chu Yiling and Meng Qiuping returned to the market and found that there were fewer things for sale. It seemed that the group of people who had been on the sidelines had started to take action.

Thinking of this, they decided to speed up their shopping at the market, because they were afraid that if they were too slow, the things in the market would be bought up by those who had been waiting and watching.

"Mom, come here quickly. There are canned foods for sale here, including your favorite canned pears."
