Vol 2 Chapter 538: Matchstick

The district department store has two floors, and it is the largest market in the suburbs of the city.
At this time, there is a lot of people flow, which is no worse than the previous one in the city.
Before you go in, listen to the tweeter. What products are on the shelves, and there are no defective products.
Zhou Jiao hadn't heard these words for a long time, and she felt it was a hallucination. In the past two years, it has not been out of stock, that is, the number of purchases per person is limited, or it is out of stock.
After walking around with Jonah, Zhou Jiao still found that compared with the first time she went to Beijing, the prices of many commodities had risen a lot, and the quality had been much worse.
"I'll line up to buy fish skin beans. That's not too much. Would you like to buy some for Ping An? The hawthorn cake and peanuts are praise, kids like to eat. You have to buy it quickly. I didn't wait for the last time I came here."
Zhou Jiao glanced at the crowd and shook her head immediately, "You buy it. I'll go and take a look."
Jonah waved and ran to the line anxiously.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Jiao laughed dumbly. However, the customers who watch the food counters are crowded also know that eating is still the most popular.
Walking in the mall, there were people everywhere, Zhou Jiao looked at her small body and resolutely gave up. She couldn't forget that several times the aunts pushed her so hard that she could not breathe.
That's not a big deal. It would be terrible if a customer arguing and arguing happened accidentally, which caused her to suffer innocent disaster, so Zhou Jiao still felt jealous in the crowded place.
From downstairs to upstairs, I looked for a counter with a little less crowd, but unexpectedly it was selling fabrics and textiles.
Zhou Jiao is not surprised that there are relatively few customers here.
Food stamps are expensive, but cloth tickets are not bad. In the early years, everyone in the capital could still have seventeen or eighteen feet. In the past two years, she only received more than seven feet of cloth tickets at the end of each year.
Compared with the previous two years, the family is now even more stretched. The new three years, the old three years, and the three years of sewing and mending have to continue.
It's been six or two years, and there is still something to be done next...
When Jonah came over, she happened to see Zhou Jiao picking up rags, so she hurried over to stop her. Obediently, buy these scraps with cloth tickets, go crazy.
"Why are you buying this. Hurry up and help me see what suits are good. I finally got the votes for two years, so I have to keep my eyes open and choose a satisfactory one. You don't know how much I have spent on these tickets. It is very troublesome to change people every year when it is about to expire."
Zhou Jiao was dragged away by her and never picked again. She really has no shortage of fabrics, mainly too boring, just now I thought it could be used as a sachet or something.
Seeing summer, there are more mosquitoes, and I wonder if I can buy matchsticks this year.
To say that Zhou Jiao had prepared so many materials, she regretted the lack of some raw materials. She thought that wormwood and wormwood were not in short supply, so she ignored them.
Now the retribution is coming. She gave away the mosquito repellent prescriptions and match strings generously, and there are few left, and the mosquito coils have not always received her favor. If this is in her hometown, she can still go up the mountain to find out. But now in the suburbs of Beijing, a single piece of wormwood is rarely seen everywhere.
(If Zhang Guoqing knew that he would laugh secretly-girl, you are too ignorant, and it is still the tail tip of spring. Wait until the end of summer and brother to go to the wilderness to have a look.)
Zhou Jiao moved to the side with Jonah and looked at the two or three small floral fabrics on the counter. She really didn't think there was anything to pick. It feels like there is no difference.
In the end, Jonah used the cloth tickets that he had accumulated for two or three years to choose the light pink florets. Looking at her smiling face, she should be very happy, after all, I have been looking forward to it for a long time.
Zhou Jiao poked her badly, "Are you not going to go to cover up?"
"No, we will do it first. The tickets for the next two years must be prepared for graduation and work."
Zhou Jiao joked: "After graduation, I will prepare for the wedding gown."
"Yeah... Yeah, you're doing my own thing."
Now that she had bought something, Zhou Jiao didn't want to go shopping anymore, and took her to go back. As for the fried noodles, Zhou Jiao refused to go back to catch up with the meal.
She did not want to let others spend money, nor did she want Zhang Guoqing to wait for herself to eat at school. The man will definitely wait for her to go back.
I thought I was going home empty-handed today, but I didn't expect a huge surprise waiting for her after going back.
After the two returned to school, they bid farewell to Jonah and Zhou Jiao went straight upstairs.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the dormitory, before I had time to take out the key to open the door, Zhang Guoqing unexpectedly opened the door from the inside and immediately pulled her in.
The familiar smell of wormwood in the house, wild cherries and mulberries in the basket on the table. It was all the things she had planned to find in the small market.
Well, their husband and wife really know each other well.
Zhou Jiao looked at the room and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you going to do business with Da Yi? How come there are these things?"
Zhang Guoqing happily hugged her, "We will go to the farm to discuss the double harvest task. No, if we are done, we will separate from them and run into the village."
"Spent a lot of money?"
Zhang Guoqing shook his head, "It didn't cost much. One-third of a match rope, a bag is only two yuan. We two each have a bag. The captain is very clever. He brought us back with the old man, and did not forget to bring a lot. Come here with the match. Many teachers and students bought it with him just now."
Zhou Jiao smiled clearly.
The school is located in a remote area with a lot of trees, and the surrounding farmland and wasteland have become extremely mosquitoes. Many students can’t afford mosquito nets or burn mosquito coils.
The match string is better than the mosquito coil, cheap and good quality. A match string is 15 centimeters long and can burn for a day and a night when it is lit. There is no mosquito in the house, and it does not contain smoke, leaving only a touch of wormwood fragrance, and it is clean And environmentally friendly. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
However, in addition to the professors of the freshmen and students with good family conditions, the old students should have rubbed a lot in person last year, and kept them for this year.
Before, she also rubbed two roots following the fashion, but then gave up directly. Not only the raw materials are hard to find, but she can't use the skill of twisting the fire rope. It might as well be made into powder directly.
"The remaining powder will be used by Dad and Ping An. We will directly buy other medicines, which is very troublesome. The captain's mouth is lax and too flexible, so I didn't order it with him. I will find a village to order more matchsticks in a few days. Standby. If you are worried about the inconvenience without the raw materials in the future, I will let people wait for the end of summer to grow much longer and prepare more."
Zhou Jiao nodded. She didn't think it was troublesome to dispense medicine, all the handwork was done by him, but he was tired, and she was a little bit reluctant. As her mother said, nothing can be solved with money.
Especially Match, can be solved with money, she is absolutely unwilling to do it again. Zhou Jiao was not interested in the hemp rope or match rope. It's easy to see her mother-in-law at home, but she can't use it in her own hands.
She never compares her own weaknesses with others' strengths, which is so stupid. Especially the work of rubbing the fire rope is extremely troublesome.
The process is one by one, don't be too difficult!
First go and pick it up in sweat in the summer, and then carry it back. This is not a big deal. The most difficult thing is that the weaving cannot be too thick or too tight. Weaving too thick and too tight will not burn easily.
It's not over yet, and it has to be put under the eaves to dry for most of the day. It can't be dried directly.
When the finished product came out, the whole face was red from the sun, his waist and back were sore, and his hands were blisters. To be honest, one-third of a dollar really devalues ​​the item.
Oh...that is now, three points? In the future, no one is willing to do it for three hundred yuan.
