Even though Da Bao’s wife doesn’t work the fields, her parents have been sending her parcels and money for all these years.

She got some goods from someone else, and I bought them from her: towels for one yuan apiece, no ration coupons needed, socks for 50 cents a pair, two apples, four bananas for one yuan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apples this big, only 50 cents for two?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And bananas?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such fruits were rarely seen around here, transported from other places to be sold in their region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And nylon socks for just 50 cents a pair?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No ration coupons needed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All these items, they normally required coupons, and the Cooperative might not even have them in stock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their family had struck quite a bargain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister-in-law said the bananas should be left to turn yellow and soften before we eat them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Meiyun also thought of the aunties she met today, “Grandma, you have no idea, on our way back today, those aunties were nearly dying to peek into sister-in-law’s pack to see what good things were inside.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems the incident with Wang Laowu didn’t make them learn their lesson.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Meiyun nodded in agreement, “With Third Brother and the others not at home, and sister-in-law managing on her own with the kids, they’re fearless.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry about those gossips; let’s go cook.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back with Yun Xiaoxiao, upon her return, she took out a bottle of soda.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You brothers share one bottle; you kids are young and can’t drink too much of this stuff. Otherwise, whatever color the soda is, that’s what color your tongues will turn.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Da Bao and Xiao Bao were startled; they had drunk it before and it had never happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go ahead, I’ll get you a mirror.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She warned them, beverages were not to be consumed in excess; this was one way to keep them from asking for more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother, let me take a sip and see.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bao took a sip from the enamel mug and then stuck out his tongue, asking unintelligibly, “Did it change color?”\u003C\u002Fp>",700,"2026-06-06T07:30:15.937Z",1,"novelbin.me","16e98007d0fbae6b93b8d44a4a77d37fbefd810c59df756cb081fcb63f280cb2","she-lives-well-with-the-shopping-app-in-the-80s-chapter-179","she-lives-well-with-the-shopping-app-in-the-80s-chapter-177",1053,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fshe-lives-well-with-the-shopping-app-in-the-80s-cover.jpg"]
