"Okay, girl, then walk slowly and come to my place next time, I'll give you a discount!"

"good."

Carrying a backpack, Zhao Yun'er left the grocery store and went shopping in other places to see if there was anything else she wanted to buy.

This is my first time to visit such a place. I have only seen it on TV before. Now that I am there, it feels very novel. Look east, look west.

I didn't eat breakfast, walked a lot, caught a thief, and now I was carrying something on my back, so I felt exhausted. Arriving at a snack stall, Zhao Yuner was ready to buy something to fill her stomach.

"Boss, how do you sell this bun?" Zhao Yun'er asked.

The boss smiled and said, "Girl, these vegetable buns are two for a penny, and meat buns are for a penny each."

Zhao Yuner nodded. Calculated, it is almost the same as what was sold in the 21st century.

So I greeted the boss of the bun shop, "Boss, bring me two vegetable buns and six buns."

"Okay~" The boss responded with a smile, then took a piece of butter paper to wrap several buns together and handed them to Zhao Yun'er. "Girl, this is the bun you asked for. Take it."

When Zhao Yuner took it over, she handed over seven cents.

She can just eat two vegetable buns by herself. The meat buns are bought for Doudou and her two younger brothers.

In ancient times, there were very few opportunities to eat meat. You might not be able to eat it even once in several months. For those from poor family backgrounds, they can basically only eat it during the Chinese New Year. Therefore, meat buns are definitely a luxury item in the countryside.

After eating two vegetable buns, Zhao Yuner was finally not very hungry.

Then I went to the market and bought some pork. Pork costs fifteen cents per catty, and Zhao Yun'er asked for one catty, plus some big bones.

Ancient times are different from modern times. Modern people buy big bones and make big bone soup to replenish their health. But ancient people like to buy pork. The fatter the better. This is because there is too little oil and water in ancient people’s cooking. Fatty meat There is a lot of lard in it, so they prefer the greasy feeling.

In this way, there is neither oil, water nor much meat on the big bones, and the price is only three cents per pound.

As I was walking back, I passed by a shop. The various snacks and pastries inside looked very delicate and beautiful, and also had a faint fragrance.

Before coming out, Zhao Yun'er promised to bring good food for the children. It would be good to buy these snacks back.

After entering the store and asking about it, Zhao Yun'er discovered that the prices of these snacks and pastries were much higher than the prices of other things in this era.

Under normal circumstances, only wealthy households in the city or well-off families can afford it.

A box of good pastries costs a few taels of silver, or almost a few hundred yuan.

After Zhao Yun'er went shopping, she bought some candies. Children love to eat candies, and the price of these candies was within her acceptable range. It cost twenty-five cents per pound, so Zhao Yuner asked the store owner to wrap a pound in butter paper and take it back.

After everything was bought, when we returned to Father Hu's place, few people had come.

Father Hu smiled kindly at Zhao Yun'er, "Girl, are you selling these things so fast?"

"yes!"

"You have a full basket, but you have bought a lot of things!"

"I sold my things and got some money, so I bought some food and went back."
