Once the two of them split up to stand in line, buying vegetables!
It was just as crowded as before!
He Tiantian missed the free markets immensely, where, as long as you had money, you could buy anything you wanted. You didn't need to get up so early, nor endure such crowding, and certainly, there was no need for all those messy coupons.
This was why He Tiantian preferred to be in Qijia Village, rather than Nan City.
In Qijia Village, you only needed to buy a small number of industrial goods, and most of the food came from the small plot of land belonging to the family, as well as game from the mountains behind and fish caught from the river.
There was no need to queue up so early at the supply and marketing cooperative for a bit of meat, a few radishes, and cabbages.
By the time the two finished their shopping and returned home, it was already past nine in the morning.
