omeone else to exchange this basket of vegetables, they would have had to pay at least two cents.
As for the eggs, they could only buy them in the city’s supply company when they had time off work.
One egg would cost seven cents, and they had to buy them with stamps.

This was because in this era, each family could only raise two chickens at most.
Their own families didn’t even have enough to eat.
Due to Auntie Zhao’s special situation, the village had discussed and allowed them to raise two more.
In addition, Auntie Zhao usually lived alone and ate little, so she could sell them to who needed eggs.

Yu Bing knew that the old lady wanted people to come and go for the sake of liveliness and didn’t care about this bit of money, so she didn’t refuse anymore.
She only made up her mind to come more often in the future and help the old lady do some work.

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony.
Thank you!” After paying, Yu Bing carefully transferred the vegetables in the basket into the bag she brought.

After saying goodbye to the woman, Yu Bing and Jiang Chun walked back.

Jiang Chun asked curiously, “Little Bing, how did you know that this woman would exchange veggies with us?” After all, there were a few families nearby, but Yu Bing walked straight to Auntie Zhao’s house.

Yu Bing’s eyes flickered.
She pretended to be calm and said, “I chose her randomly.
Anyway, I could ask the next family if she didn’t exchange with us.”

Jiang Chun nodded without thinking much about it.
Then, she suddenly thought of something and asked, “By the way, why did you say that to Yu Yan on the train?”

Yu Bing calmly said the answer she had long prepared, “I just felt that she was deliberately trying to get close to me.
It seemed strange, so I was on guard.
I want others to think that my family is constantly paying attention to my safety, so they won’t dare to bully me.”

When Jiang Chun heard this, her eyes widened in agreement.
“At that time, I felt that her smile was a little fake, especially when she said those words to you.
I knew that my intuition was right!”

The two of them chatted for a while before returning to the location.
They placed the vegetables in the kitchen.
Yu Bing took her eggs and temporarily placed them in the pocket of her bag.

Yu Yan was writing a letter on the wooden table.

Jiang Chun also took out a pen and paper.
“I have to write a letter to report my safety to my parents.”

Yu Bing finally left the Yu family and didn’t want to write to contact the Yu family anymore.
However, when she saw Yu Yan, she changed her mind and took out her stationery.
“Me too.
Otherwise, my parents would be worried.”
