However, after thinking about it, considering the complicated network of relationships behind Lin Sitian, everyone tactfully chose not to ask any more questions.

Lin Sitian walked forward lightly and raised her hand to knock on the gate.

Unexpectedly, the door opened and an old lady's head popped out from the crack of the door.

This lady had a kind face, but the other educated youth knew nothing about her identity, and they would never have thought that this seemingly ordinary lady in front of them was actually the wife of the director of the Public Security Bureau.

In fact, Lin Sitian had informed Zhou Xiaoyun in advance that she would bring the educated youth from the same courtyard to buy items.

After Zhou Xiaoyun's deliberate arrangement and joint discussion and decision by her mother and brother, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Zhou Xiaoyun was allowed to return home first.

After all, most of the educated youth in this courtyard had met Zhou Xiaoyun before. If she were allowed to stay in the courtyard at this time, the matter would probably be exposed soon.

Anyway, they have never seen Zhou's mother and Zhou Jie, so they might as well let them do the trafficking.

The other educated youth saw that an old lady really walked out of the room, so they followed Lin Sitian into the yard with confidence.

When everyone walked into the yard, they saw the old lady hurriedly closing the gate.

Looking at the familiar yard and the old lady's familiar operations, they thought it seemed pretty good, since it was the same yard after all.

Although the lady who came to greet them had been replaced by another one, and there was also a young man in the yard.

But since it was Lin Sitian who led everyone here, the other educated youth stepped into the yard without any worries and full of trust.

As soon as they entered the yard, these educated youth seemed to be very familiar with the place. They walked towards each room with ease and began to carefully select the items they liked.

Just as everyone walked into the room and focused on choosing what they needed, Zhou's mother seized the opportunity. While the other educated youth were not paying attention, she quickly and carefully stuffed a recorded list into Lin Sitian's hands.

This scene happened to be seen by Wang Wenxiang who was standing not far away.

However, Wang Wenxiang thought: Since it was Lin Sitian who brought everyone to this courtyard, then the owner of this courtyard must be acquainted with them.

In this way, it is common for them to pass a letter or something else between them.

Thinking of this, Wang Wenxiang not only did not make the matter public, but turned around and went to look for what he wanted to buy as if nothing had happened.

In this way, he was completely immersed in the process of selecting goods and was not aware of what happened next.

At this moment, Zhou's mother, who had been silent and secretly observing the situation around her, suddenly took out a cloth bag from her arms while no one was paying attention, and handed it to Lin Sitian who was standing beside her in the blink of an eye.

This cloth bag looks ordinary, and is exactly the same style as the cross-body bag that Lin Sitian is carrying at the moment. Both are the type that can be carried across the shoulder for easy carrying.

When Lin Sitian reached out to take the cross-body bag, her heart couldn't help but move, and she instantly understood the deep meaning of it.

Perhaps, this seemingly ordinary cross-body bag contains the money obtained from the transaction and various bills.

I have to say that using this method to deliver items is indeed very clever. It is both concealed and convenient, and can save a lot of trouble.

Thinking of this, Lin Sitian took the cross-body bag decisively without any hesitation.

Then, she swiftly stuffed the list she had just received into her new cross-body bag.

Then, while her friends around her hadn't noticed yet, she carefully and quietly stuffed the cross-body bag handed to her by Zhou's mother into the cross-body bag she was already carrying.

With the addition of this extra cross-body bag, the bag on Lin Sitian's back immediately became bulging, as if it was filled with countless secrets.

Although it looks a bit weird in appearance, Lin Sitian doesn't care about it.

She thought to herself:

Anyway, my friends around me probably won’t be curious and ask what’s in my bag.

In this case, she could naturally complete these little actions with peace of mind and continue to pretend that nothing had happened and that she didn't know Zhou's mother and Zhou Jie at all.

Instead, he followed his friends to pick out what he wanted.

Seeing the young educated youth picking out what they wanted, Zhou's mother and Zhou Jie also began to look at the supplies.

Although they took a quick look at it when registering and calculating the price of this batch of supplies, they still couldn't help but carefully observe the exquisiteness of this batch of supplies.

After all, now that the autumn harvest is over, winter is not far away, and now this young educated youth has actually taken out so much cotton to keep out the cold.

Not only that, those exquisite, warm and waterproof boots are also in short supply in the market today.

Although they were surprised for a moment when they suddenly saw such a yard full of goods, they still cooperated with us several times.

He reacted immediately and hurried home to get paper and pen to record it in the book. Anyway, his family made some money by following Lin Sitian to sell some food and other things.

Otherwise, it would be a bit difficult to give so much money to Lin Sitian at one time. Fortunately, they have earned some money now and can buy supplies in the yard. Otherwise, it would be really uncomfortable for them to just look at it but not be able to pay.

While they were frantically choosing what they wanted, Zhou's mother saw this scene and saw so many people wanting to buy so many things at once.

Moreover, those people also came with Lin Sitian, and they must be spending money lavishly, so she asked her son to go back and get a cart.

When the time comes, put these educated youth's things on a cart, and ask Zhou Jie to help push it to the ox cart outside the town, otherwise it will be a bit difficult for him and the others to carry it.

When everyone was choosing the things they had chosen and brought them to Zhou's mother and the others to be paid for.

At this moment, Zhou's mother was extremely grateful that she had asked Zhou Jie to drag a cart over. Indeed, the total amount of stuff for the eight of them was a lot.

At a glance, if they had other plans later, it would be a bit of a headache to carry so many things.

When counting the money, Zhou's mother saw that each of them basically took an existing cotton-padded jacket, and almost all of them took a lot of cotton.

The male educated youth generally took about eight kilograms of cotton, while the female educated youth generally took about five kilograms.

In addition to this, almost everyone of them took a pair of shoes, some bought rubber shoes and some bought boots.

Apart from these things, they also have some small similarities in their food.

Basically, each of them took 10 chicken eggs and 10 duck eggs as personal belongings.

Not only that, but almost every female educated youth bought 5 kilograms of brown sugar. Although the male educated youth did not buy that much, almost every one of them bought about kilograms.

And they all bought a lot of ginger, regardless of gender.

After all, drinking some ginger soup in winter can keep you warm.

Although it may not be used up in one winter, it can be used as an ingredient or something like that, and it can also remove the fishy smell. Even if it cannot be finished, it will go bad if left alone, so they all bought some.

Since their entire courtyard cooked together, the meals for the entire courtyard were bought separately by Bai Wanting, and their same eggs, duck eggs or brown sugar and individual portions of ginger were placed in their own rooms for their own cooking.

In addition to buying supplies for her own personal needs, Bai Wanting also had to buy food for the entire yard.

Because they all knew that winter would be long and that they would not be able to buy all kinds of fine supplies.

Therefore, Bai Wanting bought 50 kilograms of white flour, kilograms of rice, and kilograms of corn grits for their entire yard.

Although these 150 kilograms of food may not be enough for the eight of them in winter, they can share the food from the brigade after the autumn harvest and winter.

Therefore, they kept the attitude of buying less, thinking that it would be enough to buy a little and mix it with the food distributed by the team.

In addition to the above, they also bought personal items:

Wang Wenxiang: 10 apples, 5 pears, 3 oranges, one can each of hawthorn, pear, and pork, and 2 pairs of rubber gloves.

Zhao Wenhua: 5 apples, 5 pears, 5 oranges, a can of pork, beef, a can of hawthorn fruit, a can of malted milk, two pairs of rubber gloves, and a piece of fine cotton cloth, enough to make a shirt.

Guan Huijun: 10 pears, 5 oranges, 2 apples. 5 cans each of pork, beef, hawthorn, pear, and orange. 5 cans of malted milk, and a whole bag of White Rabbit candy.

20 jin of fine rice, 10 jin of white flour, one piece of coarse cotton cloth and one piece of fine cotton cloth.

In addition to these, when he saw that there was also fine toilet paper for sale here, he also bought some toilet paper.

In addition to the Liberation shoes he and everyone bought, he also took a pair of waders and two pairs of gloves.

The reason he bought so many things was because he also went to the post office and called home.

After learning that there was a new member in his family, he decided that if he could buy good things, he would buy some good things and send them back to his family.

After all, they may not be able to buy so many good canned foods, especially canned meat.

If there were any, the people in the supply and marketing cooperative would have distributed them long ago, so they wouldn't have had a turn.

If he could buy this one, he would take the opportunity to buy a little more, thinking of going back to the post office to mail it home later, as a gift from his uncle to his new nephew.

Liu Zhipeng and his friends, who had just gone to the post office with Guan Huijun, knew that Guan Zhiqing's family had a new member.

So after buying so many things, I definitely had to send them back, but the other educated youth didn’t know that.

I was a little surprised to see him buy so many things at one time.

After all, it is quite convenient for them to come to the town, and the team has not yet started to distribute food in earnest. With his enthusiasm for work, he will definitely get a lot. Why should he buy so much?

It would be a shame if it went bad, and there is no need to eat it every day.

Although they were confused, no one would seriously tell him not to buy it or raise any questions.

After all, they are not the ones paying for it, they are just a little confused. I think Guan Huijun will be able to answer their questions later.
