After Lai Fu left, Yu Qingqing and her family started to get busy while it was still light.

Yu Qingqing and Yu Qingshu were going to the town to buy! Buy! Buy!

The others just cleaned the yard and tidied up a bit so they could go to bed early at night!

Before leaving, Yu Qingqing came to the kitchen and took out five large buckets of water from the space.

And a lot of other things, preparing to let them boil water and take a bath first.

Fortunately, there is plenty of firewood in the kitchen, so there is no need to worry too much.

Yu Qingqing: "Mom, you don't have to save this water. We don't lack this water, you can rest assured.

Here are a few pieces of clothes that you used to wear at home. You can wear them for now.

I will go to the cloth shop with my father later and buy some more clothes for everyone in the family." Yu Qingqing directly put the clothes in Hua Qinglu's hands.

Hua Qinglu looked at the clothes in his hands, and then saw a large bag of wheat flour, brown rice and three large chayote squashes on the stove.

She felt like it was all a dream and it was hard to believe.

She touched her clothes and realized that she was not dreaming.

Hua Qinglu's eyes were moist, and there seemed to be mist in his eyes. He responded with great satisfaction:

"Oh! Mother knows, my dear daughter! You and your father should go out and buy something quickly. It's getting late!

Remember to stay safe and be careful! Mom is at home and has prepared delicious food for you when you come back!"

Hua Qinglu put the clothes aside and pushed Yu Qingqing outside.

Let her go out early so that she can come back earlier!

Yu Qingqing: "Okay, I'll be careful, I'll leave first!"

Yu Qingqing also started walking towards the cart, and Yu Qingshu was already waiting there.

Hua Qinglu sent Yu Qingqing to the door and then went to the kitchen. Yu Qingmei had already lit the fire.

Hua Yuanyuan was adding water and kneading wheat flour, planning to make noodles tonight.

Only the little boy Yu Qingji was playing with a few earthworms he had just found from under the rocks in the yard.

At this time, the sun had completely set, but the sky was not completely dark yet.

The temperature in the air is still quite high, and you will sweat if you walk a little faster.

Yu Qingqing and Yu Qingshu first planned to go to the grain store to check, as they didn't know what the current grain prices were.

After walking for a while, the cart slowly came to a shop called "Cha Cha Liang Dian".

The grain shop was also deserted, with the prices of grains marked outside.

Today's grain prices: "Rice, one tael of silver per catty. Millet, eight hundred coins per catty.

Wheat flour, 500 wen per jin. Corn flour, 300 wen per jin. Millet, 200 wen per jin. Brown rice, 100 wen per jin.

When Yu Qingshu saw the prices in the grain store, the cold sweat on his forehead flowed down like he was on a spaceship.

He said with a look of deep sorrow: "The price of food is so high, how many people can afford it now?

Isn't this a threat to life? With such a high price, don't the government care?"

When Yu Qingshu thought about how so many people couldn't afford to eat and would starve to death, he couldn't help feeling sad.

Yu Qingqing didn't react much when she saw the grain price, because she knew it was expected.

Moreover, they saw many beggars and refugees on the way here, which was also common.

Fortunately, Qingqing had no intention of buying the food. She just wanted to come here to see if she could buy some rice seeds.

She really wanted to eat delicious white rice, but the rice outside was too expensive, so she could only eat it if she grew it herself.

Yu Qingqing shook her head, and then she comforted Yu Qingshu and said, "Dad, don't worry!

We ordinary people can’t do anything about this. Don’t worry, when my daughter is able to do so, she will do her best to help others.”

This is also Yu Qingqing's true feelings. Fortunately, she has a space where she will not starve to death, but others have nothing.

Within her ability, she is willing to help those in need.

Yu Qingshu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said embarrassedly:

"Qing'er, Daddy didn't mean anything else. Don't do anything stupid, okay? Your safety is the most important thing. You are the most important."

Yu Qingshu was also a little worried that Yu Qingqing would do something to hurt himself.

Yu Qingqing stuck out her tongue and said mischievously, "Daddy, don't worry about me, I will be careful!"

After Yu Qingqing finished speaking, she looked into the shop and happened to see the situation inside.

The shop assistant was taking a nap inside at this moment. It was so quiet here that he was also drowsy.

"Hey! Wake up! Wake up!" Yu Qingshu stepped forward and shook the shop assistant's arm, and saw that the assistant was drooling.

Yu Qingshu wiped his hands with disgust, fearing that the saliva would flow onto his hands.

"Huh? Sir?" The waiter rubbed his eyes hard, looking sleepy.

Finally seeing clearly that there were two people outside, the young man realized that he was still working.

Suddenly, a perch stood up and warmly invited Yu Qingqing and the other person to come in.

"Sir, what kind of food do you need to buy? Our store has rice, millet, wheat flour, corn flour, millet, brown rice, etc. What do you need?"

The shop assistant still warmly welcomed Yu Qingqing and her friends and did not look down on them because of their attire.

Yu Qingqing was also very pleased with the boy's enthusiasm, and she calmed down a little while ago when she was thinking about the price of food.

It brought a shock to himself, and then he smiled and said: "Little Brother, it's like this! We won't buy food for the time being.

I want to find the unhusked rice. Do you have any here? If you do, how much is it? I need to buy some!"

Yu Qingqing raised her eyes slightly, and her lively eyes seemed to be speaking.

When the shop boy heard Yu Qingqing say that she would not buy food, he suddenly felt depressed.

But when he heard Yu Qingqing say that she wanted to find rice seeds, he was very happy.

There happened to be about 100 kilograms of rice seeds in their shop, which had been there for a long time.

I thought I couldn't sell them, so I was going to let the owner take them back to feed the livestock, but then someone gave me a pillow just when I felt sleepy! What a coincidence!

"Hahaha! Yes! Yes! How much do you need? Our store has exactly 100 jin, and one jin is fifty cents.

If you can buy all of them, you can get less. How much do you think you need?" The boy also smiled happily.

But Yu Qingshu and Yu Qingqing were not in a good mood when they heard the price was so high. It was in contrast to the happiness of the young man. There is really no harm without comparison!

Yu Qingqing said sadly: "Little Second Brother, aren't you selling it too expensive? It's fifty cents a pound, are you deliberately offering a high price?"

Yu Qingqing knew clearly in her heart that this kind of rice had shells.

But if you remove the husk, there is white rice inside, but these are rice grains of poor quality.
