SRTT Chapter 10.3

Ruan Ning said: “This is what we plan to do. You should also prepare more.”

The aunt started nagging again about her son’s inability to find a wife.

About twenty minutes later, Cheng Jikuan came back from the entrance of the supermarket and said to the two of them: “The prices of things have not increased. Each person is limited to two bags of 20 kilograms of rice, one barrel of oil, one kilogram of noodles, and a box of mineral water. The total amount of other food should not exceed 100 yuan. Women’s products can be purchased in three bags. There are some other specific regulations, but the total amount is not much.”

Ruan Ning immediately asked: “Then, are there any purchase restrictions on other items?”

Cheng Jikuan looked at Ruan Ning: “What do you mean?”

Ruan Ning: “For example, quilts, clothes, toilet water, etc.”

Cheng Jikuan recalled: “There should be no purchase restrictions on these.”

Ruan Ning knew that everyone around was listening to the news, so she leaned close to Cheng Jikuan and whispered: “Then, let’s stay in the supermarket for a while and buy some of these.”

Cheng Jikuan nodded: “Okay.”

About two hours later, it was finally the three of them’s turn to enter the supermarket.

Each person could get a cart. The three of them first bought enough limited food and then started to visit other areas.

The big supermarket had everything. Ruan Ning took the lead and took the brother and sister to the pots and pans area: “There should be a simple liquefied gas stove here. Let’s buy one and buy liquefied gas later.”

Cheng Ji Li was confused: “Didn’t the community say that it would repair it as soon as possible and give priority to the natural gas supply? There is no need for this.”

Ruan Ning looked at Cheng Jili seriously: “How soon is as soon as possible? Do you know?”

Cheng Jili couldn’t answer. Cheng Jikuan remained silent and put the three simple liquefied gas stoves into the cart respectively.

Ruan Ning took another water purifier and five bottles of water purification tablets.

This time, Cheng Jili didn’t say anything more and just took double the amount.

Cheng Jikuan thought for a while, called a salesperson, and brought 120 bottles of water purification tablets from the warehouse.

It was a pity that the supermarket usually didn’t stock much of this stuff, otherwise, he could buy more.

Next, Ruan Ning bought heating pads and cold patches.

Cheng Jili was stunned: “I can understand the cooling patch. The weather is still a little hot now, but why do you need a heating pad? It’s only September.”

Ruan Ning leaned close to her ear and said, “I have period pain, so I need to apply it. Don’t you need it?”

Cheng Jili wanted to say that she never felt pain, but after thinking about it, she took a big pack, about 100 pieces.

Ruan Ning took the two of them to buy a lot of things.

When they were finally calculating the bill, the staff almost had a brain short circuit. It was only after finding a big sister who was good at calculating that the bill was settled successfully. (T/N: Even a calculator cannot be used! Maybe it was because of the battery inside. What damage from this solar flare!)

Fortunately, their bicycles were not stolen.

It was obvious that there were so many things that could not be transported back in one trip, so the three of them once again adopted a shift strategy, with Ruan Ning guarding the things and the other two transporting the things back and forth.

It took them four trips to move everything home.

Immediately afterward, the three people went to buy liquefied petroleum gas, which was also limited to two cans.

Ruan Ning was the most interested in this thing. Because of the purchase restriction, she got 10 cans and stored them in the space at that time. Now she was of course happy to buy two more cans.

After all the shopping was done, the sun had already set.

Because they were tired from carrying supplies back and forth from the supermarket, the two siblings said goodbye to Ruan Ning and hurried to their home to sleep.

Ruan Ning did not rest.

Because she had a big event tonight.
