A Flower of 80s' Supply and Marketing Cooperatives (MTL)

Chapter 5-6

Chapter 5 - Dried Sweet Potatoes

　　After four o'clock, Shen Bailu cleaned up, ready to set off to return to the supply and marketing cooperative.

　　I pulled out the pack of creamy candies and told my sister: "You eat one of these cream candies a day. Xiaodong should have summer vacation in a few days. Give him a few more at that time."

　　Shen Chunyu nodded: "Then I will give him half."

　　"That's not necessary. You can eat first. Xiaodong takes the shuttle bus from the county seat and gets off at the market. He will definitely find me. I will buy a can of malted milk and let him bring it back. Just treat it as milk."

　　"Wheat milk essence?" Shen Chunyu opened his eyes, "It's expensive!"

　　"It's okay. If you don't properly supplement your nutrition and grow your body, how can you have the strength to study and work in the future? This money cannot be saved."

　　Shen Chunyu was silent for a while, and then said in a low voice: "Sister, I knew it would be good to buy a pair of ordinary sandals. There is no need to buy shampoo, and tea seed cake is also possible..."

　　This younger sister has always been frugal. Because of this, Shen Bailu feels even more distressed and wants to give her the best things.

　　Shen Bailu looked at her charming sister and said with a smile: "Don't worry, sister knows. There will be more exquisite, luxurious, and beautiful things in the future. At that time, we must be rich, so we don't need to be so stubborn. ."

　　I really hope that at that time, I can strive to become a rich man!

　　Shen Chunyu nodded straight after hearing this.

　　While talking, someone asked at the gate of the yard: "Is Lulu at home?"

　　Xiaoyue's mother walked in with a bamboo basket in her hand and said, "I'm also afraid that you have already returned to the supply and marketing agency, and luckily catching up."

　　"Our Xiaoyue is also disobedient. You gave her the candy and she just accepted it. I have been busy in the morning, and now I have time to come over."

　　Shen Bailu smiled and said, "Yesterday Xiaoyue walked a long way with the box, so she didn't feel tired."

　　"That dead girl Xiaoyue, who doesn't do well in school, just has a little strength, and it's not a big deal to carry a burden."

　　Xiaoyue's mother belongs to the kind of rural women who are very honest. If others treat her well, she will definitely repay her. She put down the bamboo basket, squatted on the ground and uncovered a piece of cloth, and said, "This is my end of last year. You can bring some dried sweet potatoes back to the supply and marketing agency."

　　Shen Bailu looked at it. A half basket of dried sweet potatoes. Because of the hot weather, the sweet potatoes were wet and soft, covered with honey, and sticky with any one of them.

　　Xiaoyue's mother also said: "Some of them are white, but they are not moldy. They are edible. You can pick something good."

　　"No, you can save yourself to eat, there are so many children in the family!"

　　"Oh, don't be so polite. You often give Chunyu fresh vegetables. Xiaoyue shares her dormitory with her and eats those dishes."

　　Shen Bailu was kind and difficult, and finally picked a part. Xiaoyue's mother insisted on letting her take more, but Shen Bailu pushed back: "No need, no need, enough..."
