The mountain I contracted can connect the past and the present

Chapter 56 Lan Ci has become a gigolo?

As she was talking, she subtly changed the topic to the clinic: "Aunt Li, the medical treatment in this clinic in our village is really expensive. Last time I got some medicine, it cost me nearly 100 yuan."

Aunt Li curled her lips when she heard this, "Xinyue, let me tell you, if you have time, you would rather go to the clinic in the next village for treatment than to the clinic in our village."

"This clinic in our village is not only expensive, but also doesn't treat patients well. Last time my child caught a cold, I spent more than 400 yuan on IV drips and medicine, but in the end, he still didn't get better. Isn't that infuriating?"

When Yun Xinyue heard this, she decided not to take Lan Ci's "case" to the village clinic. Instead, she went to the town hospital in the afternoon to see if the hospital could help.

A few people chatted and came to a small supermarket.

It is called a small supermarket, but in fact it is just a small house that has been converted to look like a small supermarket.

The small supermarket was holding an event. There were two rows of flower baskets at the door, and big red stickers introducing the various products in the small supermarket on the ground. Various prizes were placed next to them, and a staff member was redeeming the prizes for the villagers.

At the same time, the loud speaker was introducing the event in a passionate voice: "Dear fellow villagers, as long as you spend 50 yuan, you can participate in the lottery once, and if you spend 100 yuan, you can participate in the lottery twice. We guarantee that you will win a prize in every lottery..."

Such activities are very effective for the villagers, so many villagers come to buy things. Basically every villager comes out of the supermarket carrying large and small bags.

More people gathered around the lottery.

"The first prize is an electric fan. I don't know who will be lucky enough to win it."

"I don't know about the first prize, but someone has already won the second prize, a barrel of oil. I want a barrel of oil more than a fan."

"My luck was bad. I only won the consolation prize, a pack of tissues."

Lan Ci looked at all the new things here, and felt like he was in a bizarre world.

He didn't recognize most of the things here, but he could roughly understand that this was a place like a grocery store.

He looked at everything in the small supermarket with his eyes wide open, holding on to Xing Huai who was almost lost, and following Yun Xinyue.

What is an electric fan? What is a cantaloupe? He could guess that tissue paper is something like paper.

Yun Xinyue was paying attention to the situation of Lan Ci, his servant, and Old Man Sun. She smiled and said, "See if you guys want to buy anything. It's a good opportunity for us to go to the lottery as well. Maybe we can win an electric fan."

It is relatively cool in the mountains. She only needs to open the window to sleep at night, and she doesn't even need an electric fan. Therefore, she didn't install an air conditioner at home.

Old man Sun waved his hands repeatedly to indicate that he didn't need anything. He had already spent so much money on Miss Yun, so how could he ask her to spend more?

Besides, the good things here are not for an old man like him to use.

Xinghuai was so busy looking at all the new things around him that he didn't quite hear what Yun Xinyue said.

Lan Ci actually had quite a few things he wanted to buy, so he nodded and said, "Thank you for your help. I'll give you the money when we get back."

Although he didn't have the money here, he brought a lot of gold and jade, which could be exchanged for money.

Yun Xinyue just hummed, and saw someone selling watermelons, so she ran to the watermelon stall and said, "Oh, this watermelon looks good."

She looked at the price of the watermelon. "99 cents a pound?! Is the watermelon so cheap this year?"

When she was in the city before, watermelon cost nearly two yuan.

"It's normal. Fruits and daily necessities in the village are cheaper than in the city." Aunt Li naturally understood why she was so surprised and explained, "The consumption capacity in the village is just like that. If the price is high, no one will buy it."

She added, "Villagers have a lot of free time anyway, so they would rather go to a farther place to buy cheaper things than buy expensive things in the village."

Most of the people in the village are middle-aged and elderly, and they have plenty of time and energy.

Yun Xinyue suddenly realized and said, "Then I'll buy... two bigger watermelons. I have three grown men in my family with big appetites."

Aunt Li smiled and said, "I'll help you choose."

She helped Yun Xinyue pick out two bigger watermelons.

Just as Yun Xinyue was about to pick up the watermelon, she saw Old Man Sun and Xing Huai each took the watermelon, smiling broadly and saying, "When we get back, put the watermelon in the refrigerator to cool it down. It will be very delicious."

“Isn’t this…” Lan Ci blinked in surprise and stared at the watermelon. Isn’t this a winter melon?

Is the cold melon called watermelon here?

Also, is the winter melon this kind with a flowery skin? Can it be this big?

Or is it that the winter melons here at Miss Yun’s place are different?

Yun Xinyue saw his confusion, but didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she changed the subject and said, "See if you want to buy any fruit. I think the fruit in this small supermarket is quite cheap. Let's buy some and take it back."

She had previously gone to another small supermarket where the items were not so cheap.

If she had known that the things in this small supermarket were cheap, she should have come here to buy things and saved a lot of money.

There were so many things Lan Ci wanted to buy, such as the cantaloupe, apples, bananas that people were shouting about over there... and also things he had never seen before, he wanted to buy them all.

But the problem is, he can't buy so many things crazily, because it will make people around him think he is weird, and it will also cause trouble for Miss Yun.

Yun Xinyue seemed to see his dilemma and whispered, "Don't worry about buying too much and getting looked at strangely. Look at the people around you who are buying a lot."

Whether in the city or in the village, as long as the supermarket holds an event, there will be a lot of people buying things.

Lan Ci looked around and, as expected, saw many people carrying large and small bags.

He looked at the various things these people bought and felt relieved. "Thank you for buying me some of what I want. I'll pay you when I get back."

He wanted to buy a lot of things, and these things were not only for his own use, but more importantly, he wanted Xinghuai to send them back to his hometown and ask his father to present them to the emperor.

Yun Xinyue agreed immediately.

Then, she witnessed the purchasing power of a nobleman.

"Buy this Hami melon!" Lan Ci held two Hami melons and looked at Yun Xinyue with shining eyes.

Yun Xinyue said proudly, "Buy!"

It’s just two cantaloupes, just buy them.

Lan Ci's eyes lit up when he saw the pile of seasonings. "I want to buy these."

Yun Xinyue continued to be generous, "Buy!"

It’s just a bunch of seasonings, just buy them.

Next, Lan Ci kept buying things and Yun Xinyue was responsible for paying.

This caused the surrounding villagers to point fingers at the two of them.

"Could this be Xinyue's boyfriend?"

"Bah! What kind of man is this? He eats and drinks Xinyue's food and even spends Xinyue's money. Does he have any shame?"
