Bring your bestie to play melon in the domineering love story

Chapter 69 How can a man be called small?

It is normal to eat two meals a day in the countryside when people are not working.

But I got up a little early today and walked a long way, so I was a little hungry.

Jiang Ruoli nudged Tang Jiujiu beside her and asked, "Did you bring your work points book?"

Tang Jiujiu opened her big, confused eyes and nodded subconsciously, "What do you want the work point book for?"

"Let's go shopping."

Director Zhang said that they could use the work points in their work point books to exchange for what they wanted, including food and daily necessities. Just now, when Jiang Ruoli was walking along, she saw the supply and marketing cooperative opened by the program team.

Maybe you can exchange it for something useful.

......

At the old wooden counter, the salesperson Xiaoqin looked at her two best friends with a smile.

"You two, what would you like to exchange?"

Jiang Ruoli took a look.

On the left side are daily necessities, including Lighthouse brand soap, thermoses, enamel basins, aluminum lunch boxes, Vitality 28 laundry detergent, and larger items such as sewing machines and black-and-white televisions.

On the counter in the middle were wooden combs, Fuqiang toothpaste, shampoo, clam oil, an iron dressing mirror, thermos stoppers...

On the shelf behind the after-sales clerk there is a radio, cans of malted milk, biscuit boxes, abacus, etc. It can be said that there is everything you can think of.

[It seems the program crew is quite attentive.]

This setting really has a retro feel, as if I've been transported back to the 1980s.

What is clam oil?

Back then, the economy was relatively poor. Clam oil, high in oil, was sticky, but it was very effective in repairing dry, cracked skin. Imagine mothers washing dishes and clothes in cold water every day in the cold winter, their hands and feet cracked from the cold. Wasn't clam oil a lifesaver?

【Full of memories! 】

Jiang Ruoli thought about it and realized that she didn't need to purchase most daily necessities, and items like televisions required coupons. The only things she could buy were rice, flour, grain, oil, or vegetables and meat.

But meat costs 8 work points, which is not very cost-effective if you spend it all at once.

To be the final winner, you must be prudent and careful in calculation.

Thinking of this, she suddenly looked at a shelf on the left side of the counter and asked the salesperson, "How many work points does that cost?"

The salesperson was just waiting patiently for Jiang Ruoli to ask what she wanted to buy, so that he could use all kinds of reasons to embarrass her and make her spend her work points. However, he didn't expect that she actually wanted a bucket when she opened her mouth.

"You mean this bucket?"

"Ah."

"Oh, a bucket is 1 work point."

"Then I'll buy it."

Tang Jiujiu was puzzled, "Ali, what are you buying a bucket for?"

"Earn work points."

"How to make money?"

"You'll find out later."

Jiang Ruoli took out her work point book and asked the salesperson to cross out one number on it. After thinking for a while, she spent another 2 work points to buy a bag of biscuits and went out with the bucket.

Tang Jiujiu followed her.

The two turned a few small intersections and came to a bamboo garden. Jiang Ruoli greeted the owner of the bamboo garden, and the owner helped her cut an old bamboo, and also gave her fishing line, fish hooks, a ball of bran, and pig feed.

Only then did Tang Jiujiu realize that her best friend was going fishing.

Rivers in the countryside are generally cleaner, and crucian carp is one of the common fish in spring. They like to feed in places with dense aquatic plants. Therefore, fishing near aquatic plants often yields unexpected results.

The two best friends found a suitable location and tied the bait to the hook. Jiang Ruoli weighed the hook, aimed at the fish in the river, and then sent the hook into the water. After a while, the fish rushed to grab the food.

While swaying, she seized the opportunity, raised the rod directly, and put a crucian carp into the bucket.

Tang Jiujiu gave her a thumbs up, "Ali is amazing!"

"Not bad, right?" Jiang Ruoli put up her long curly hair and put the bait on again. "The weather is good today, let's catch a few and take them back to grill or braise them."

They put the bait on, put the rod into the water, and lifted it up. In just half an hour, the two best friends had a great harvest.

The barrage was filled with exclamations.

[Did you see that? Jiang Ruoli's fishing is amazing. Those fish just seemed to come to her automatically, without even a struggle. Even a fisherman like me was stunned.]

[Could it be related to beauty? ]

[@Upstairs, this is really heartbreaking. In terms of appearance alone, I dare say that in the entire South, and even in the whole of China, I am nothing.]

【Hahaha, if I guessed correctly, then I should have guessed right. 】

[Curious! I don't think anyone with just a few years of fishing experience could have caught so many fish. Who is Jiang Ruoli? Why does she seem to know everything?]

Watching her fishing is definitely stress-relieving. I suggest she do a live stream next time.

The men were still cutting grass for the pigs. If nothing unexpected happened, they should be able to finish work before dusk.

Jiang Ruoli and Tang Jiujiu simply went home first.

Seeing that Old Lady Zhang had not returned yet, the two men scaled and gutted the fish in the bucket, washed them clean, found a large enamel basin, and marinated them with white wine and ginger. Then they went to wash and change their clothes. When they walked out of the main house, they saw the men coming back with several full baskets of pig feed.

Han Fei collapsed on the bamboo chair as soon as he came back, shaking his sore hands and complaining, "I swear, I will never participate in any pastoral variety shows again. I almost died in the fields just now."

"Then you want to thank me?" Jiang Shaoqing patted his shoulder, "If I hadn't helped you, you would have fallen into the pit a long time ago."

"Yes, yes, I'll treat you to a meal after the show is finished."

"Okay then." Jiang Shaoqing's beautiful peach blossom eyes curved up, and he smiled very gently, "What are you going to treat me to?"

"Sha County."

"..."

The richer you are, the stingier you are. This is absolutely true.

Jiang Shaoqing sneered, "Stingy!"

"Who are you calling stingy? Let me tell you, not only am I stingy, I also have athlete's foot. What do you think?"

Jiang Shaoqing: "That's great, you are beyond help."

The two of them were exposing each other's shortcomings. When they were in high spirits, Han Fei pulled Jiang Shaoqing's pants and said, "Hey! By the way, have you mended your pants yet?"

hiss.....

A crisp tearing sound was heard.

Jiang Shaoqing's pants fell down, revealing his bright red underwear.

It's a bullet style.

"Wow, it's my zodiac year?" Han Fei glanced down and raised his lips slightly. "But the small one is also very cute!"

"Han Fei!!!"

Jiang Shaoqing exploded on the spot, holding up his pants with one hand and holding a bamboo pole with the other, and started chasing him.

The barrage also exploded.

【Fuck!】

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

[Han Fei actually called him small? Hahaha, what kind of dangerous statement is that?]

[Small? Sorry, is it really as small as I thought?]
