SRTT Chapter 10.2

Last Supermarket Shopping (2)

“Three?” Seeing that a big deal had come, the monkey man immediately smiled: “This little beauty is smart.”

Cheng Jili grabbed Ruan Ning and said, “Ning Ning, why are you buying this? It’s so expensive!”

Ruan Ning sighed: “I really can’t stand anymore. It will be more comfortable sitting down for a while. Besides, we may have to queue up in the future.”

When the monkey man heard this, he hurriedly said: “Yes, this little beauty has foresight. We don’t know how long the power outage will last. Our city doesn’t produce food itself. Now there are no cars. How can they transport the meat and vegetables here? At least, we have to limit the purchase to one month!”

Cheng Jili still wanted to speak, but Cheng Jikuan had already taken out the money: “This is the money for two stools.”

Ruan Ning took out twenty yuan.

It would be a fool not to sit on the stools if they had it. People around saw them paying for it and followed suit.

The queue was really too long. And as the monkey man said, what if the purchase was limited to one month?

That meant that you had to queue up every few days. So, it was better to buy it early and enjoy it early.

Seeing that the stools had been paid for, Cheng Jili sat down, but she was still dissatisfied: “He made a profit! Three chairs for 60 yuan. We should bargain.”

Ruan Ning shook her head: “Now everyone is thinking about how to stockpile food, but he is thinking about how to make money. I don’t know whether he made any money.”

After all, twenty yuan would be a piece of waste paper after tomorrow.

Cheng Jili thought about it and said, “Tell me, do you think it’s true as he said that they will limit the purchase to one month? Will the purchase limit really last that long?”

Cheng Jikuan took a deep look at his naive girl and said: “Maybe more than one month.”

Cheng Jili had a look of despair on her face: “No way! Can I have a call that month? The fairy drama I’m following is about to air its finale.”

Ruan Ning thought to herself that she might never watch the finale in her lifetime, which was really cruel.

Cheng Jili complained for a moment and then began to mutter: “I don’t know how Dad is doing. Are they also in such a mess?”

Cheng Jikuan said calmly: “He has already started a new family, so we don’t need to worry about him.”

Cheng Jili laughed and said to his brother in a flattering way: “That’s right. We don’t care about him.”

Ruan Ning was smart not to participate in the other party’s family discussions.

Cheng Jili couldn’t help it and continued to find a topic to chat about. This time, she looked at Ruan Ning: “Ning Ning, what do you think of the purchase limit? How much can each person buy?”

Ruan Ning also didn’t know about it.

Cheng Jikuan pondered for a moment, then stood up, and said, “You guys wait here for a while. I’ll go to the front to ask around.”

Cheng Jili’s eyes brightened: “Brother, go quickly! I’ll guard the stool.”

After Cheng Jikuan left, Cheng Jili shook her head and said, “My brother is just too serious. Even I, his sister, don’t want to talk to him. How can he find a girlfriend in the future?”

Ruan Ning agreed casually: “Yes.”

However, the aunt in front of them turned around and said excitedly: “Your brother doesn’t have a girlfriend? He looks pretty good. Do you want me to introduce one to you?”

Cheng Jili quickly refused: “No, no, no. No one can control his affairs.”

The aunt was quite sorry, but the current situation was not good, so she could only temporarily extinguish her desire to be a matchmaker.

She sighed: “I don’t know what’s going on in this world. How come there’s a sudden power outage? And the community is talking about a solar flare. They don’t even know what happened to the sun. Alas, how will I live my life in the future?”

Cheng Jili also sighed: “Yeah, why did the power go out in one day? I can’t even watch the TV series.”

“Are you still thinking about the TV series?” The aunt looked around and found that no one was paying attention to them.

She suddenly lowered her voice and said mysteriously: “My son said it might be the end of the world. Of course, I don’t believe it, but it looks weird now. You two girls should also pay attention and buy more things later.”
