Chapter 116 Cream Cake

An hour later, Chu Anshan parked the tractor in front of the grain station. He got off the tractor and said to Chu Yiling, "I have something else to do later. Go find your mother."

"Okay, do you want me and mom to bring you lunch?"

"No, just take care of yourself."

"I understand. I'll go find mom then." After Chu Yiling finished speaking, she turned around and went to find Meng Qiuping.

When she found Meng Qiuping, she saw Meng Qiuping sitting on a rock to rest, so she asked Meng Qiuping, "Mom, are you okay?"

"It's okay, my legs are a little sore from walking too fast, I'll be fine after a rest."

"Then you can sit down and take a rest. There is no rush to buy things."

"it is good."

More than ten minutes later, Meng Qiuping, who had rested well, stood up and stretched her arms and legs. Seeing that she was no longer sore, she said to Chu Yiling, "Let's go shopping."

"Where are we going to buy first?"

"Let's go to the department store first. If there are any thick cotton-padded jackets available, we can buy two more each. I always feel that the two sets of cotton-padded jackets we made are not enough for us."

When Chu Yiling heard Meng Qiuping's words, she said "OK" and walked towards the department store with Meng Qiuping.

When they entered the department store, they were immediately attracted by the cream cakes on the counter.

It’s not their fault. It’s the first time they’ve seen cream cake in this era, so it’s normal for them to be curious.

"Little comrade, this cream cake is a new food. If you like it, ask your mother to buy you one."

When Chu Yiling heard what the salesperson said, she did not immediately ask Meng Qiuping to buy it for her. Instead, she asked the salesperson, "How much is this cream cake?"

"Fifty cents each."

"So expensive? It's almost as expensive as a pound of meat."

“It’s not expensive, look, this cream cake is bigger than my palm, it’s enough for you and your mother.

Also, the cream cakes don’t require tickets, so doesn’t that make them not expensive?”

After hearing what the salesperson said, Chu Yiling still did not ask Meng Qiuping to buy it for her. Instead, she turned her head and looked at Meng Qiuping, asking with her eyes whether she wanted to buy it or not.

"If you like it, buy one."

"Thank you, Mom." After Chu Yiling said that, she took out fifty cents from her bag and handed it to the salesperson, then asked the salesperson to help her wrap the cream cake.

Then she left the pastry counter carrying the cream cake and walked towards the ready-made clothing counter with Meng Qiuping.

When they came to the counter selling ready-made clothes, they saw that most of the clothes sold there were thin, and there was not a single thick cotton coat.

It seems that their plan to buy a few more thick cotton clothes has been ruined.

"Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative."

After hearing what Meng Qiuping said, Chu Yiling said "OK", then she left the department store with Meng Qiuping and walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative.

When they entered the supply and marketing cooperative, Chu Yiling immediately went to buy paper to seal the window gaps.

Then she said to Meng Qiuping, "Mom, I've bought the things. You go buy your things."

Meng Qiuping did not refuse when she heard Chu Yiling's words, because she did have a lot of things to buy today.

However, before she went shopping, she still reminded Chu Yiling not to run around as usual, and then she went shopping.

"Comrade, how much is this schoolbag?"

"Two dollars each, this is the last one."

"Do you need a ticket?"

"Need not."

"Then I'll take this." After Chu Yiling said that, she took out two dollars from her pocket and handed it to the salesperson.

The salesperson looked at the money Chu Yiling handed over and did not take it. Instead, he asked Chu Yiling, "Where is your parents?"
