Away from the big book, the educated youth became the village favorite by running errands

Chapter 136 Should I cut my hair shorter?

He Feiyang was afraid that Tan Anjing didn't understand the stakes, so he told her that they didn't plan to go to the black market all the time, because it was too risky. They planned to walk the streets and knock on doors to sell things most of the time. And they couldn't always ride in Old Wu's donkey cart when they went to the county, so they basically had to walk back and forth.

Tan Anjing said that she understood, "I know! You must avoid people when doing this kind of thing."

Hearing her say this, the three of them felt relieved. They spoke briefly to Tan Anjing and asked her to get up early tomorrow because they had to leave early in the morning.

"By the way, it's better to wear old clothes and put something on your face." Song Shuangshuang gave Tan Anjing a few instructions.

These two girls are really too eye-catching. If there is a way, she would like to dress up as a man.

Tan Anjing thought about it and said, "Should I cut my hair shorter?"

"Cough cough cough!" Song Shuangshuang felt that it was a good thing she didn't drink the water, otherwise she would have sprayed it all out.

The two boys also looked at Tan Anjing in surprise.

"Why do you think so?"

Seeing the reactions of the three people, Tan Anjing felt embarrassed. "Didn't you say to dress up? I thought if I cut my hair short like a boy, I wouldn't be noticed."

Song Shuangshuang's face was numb, and she told Tan Anjing firmly, "Yes! There will be more people watching you! Don't think about it. Wear an old dress with patches, preferably one with patches, and a headscarf, and don't cut your hair."

Song Shuangshuang hadn't originally intended to say the last sentence, but she added it because she was worried that Tan Anjing might have a brain spasm.

"Oh."

Tan Anjing also realized that her idea was inappropriate, pinched her fingers and blushed.

"Okay, you all should go back and rest early. We'd better leave tomorrow before the villagers go out. Remember to bring a basket."

She doesn't have that many baskets.

After the two left, Song Shuangshuang discussed with Song Youlin what to sell tomorrow.

"Food and meat are easier to sell. We can go to the black market to find out the prices first. We can set the price a little lower than the black market price. Let's get some dried vegetables? I guess there are only radishes, cabbages, potatoes and other things in the city in winter. Dried vegetables should be easy to sell."

The brother and sister discussed it and asked the system how many points they had. After a simple calculation, Song Youlin went into the space and took out the remaining two pieces of meat and asked Song Shuangshuang to cook them. He then asked the system to update directly, and then took out all the mushrooms on the shelf, tore open the packaging and scattered them together, and then divided them into two piles, waiting to take them out to sell tomorrow.

"Let's do these first and see if they sell well. If they don't sell well, we can change a few things."

So the next morning, as soon as the supermarket was refreshed, the brother and sister used their points to fill in the missing meat and eggs.

Because she left home early, Song Shuangshuang boiled four eggs and put them on her body, ready to eat when she was hungry on the road.

There was a knock on the door. He Feiyang and Tan Anjing had already packed up and came to find Song Shuangshuang and her brother. "Shuangshuang, are you ready?"

"Come here."

Song Shuangshuang shouted back, and the two of them went out empty-handed. If He Feiyang and the others asked, they would say that their things were all in the county town, and the baskets were also there.

Seeing Tan Anjing's outfit, Song Shuangshuang breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the girl was dressed normally, not in a particularly alternative way. She just smeared some soot on her face and wrapped a headscarf on her head like she said.

He Feiyang was also wearing a piece of washed-out clothes with patches on the shoulders and knees.

"Let's go."

The four of them chose a road that villagers rarely took to go to the county town.

There was no other way. Taking the main road was more convenient and less labor-intensive, but Old Wu had to drive his cart on this road every day. She didn't think that the few of them could compare with Old Wu's donkey cart.

It would be bad if someone else saw it.

After walking almost halfway, Song Shuangshuang felt hungry and took out some eggs to share with the others.

"Have an egg."

Tan Anjing and the other man hadn't eaten anything in the morning, and they didn't bother to be polite with Song Shuangshuang. They just took the eggs and ate them.

At this time, Song Shuangshuang couldn't help but sigh, "It would be nice to have a bicycle."

If she hadn't adapted to rural life, she would have been unable to hold on and sat down. I don't know how she managed to walk around the streets all day without feeling tired in modern times.

"Don't think about the bicycle, sister. Just keep walking. We are lucky here. We don't have to carry things from the village to the county town. Otherwise, you will be even more tired."

Song Youlin knew that his sister was feeling tired and just wanted to complain.

Song Shuangshuang snorted, threw away the egg shell in her hand and continued walking towards the city.

That's right, she saved a lot of energy by putting all the things in the space. If she carried a basket of things... wouldn't she be exhausted? Then she had to buy a bicycle no matter what.

Tan Anjing walked up to Song Shuangshuang and said, "Shuangshuang, do you want me to write a letter to my family and ask if I can get a bicycle ticket?"

"No need. You said last night that you didn't want to stay close to home. How can we ride a bicycle if we get one back?" It couldn't be that his brother or He Feiyang rode alone while the other sat on the back seat and she and Tan Anjing sat on the front bar.

Not to mention whether I can ride it, it would be inappropriate to be seen by others!

Song Shuangshuang had no doubt about the carrying capacity of the 28-inch bicycle of this era! There are still people riding it in modern times, which shows how good the quality of this thing is.

Tan Anjing also remembered what she said last night and kept silent.

The four of them stopped to eat something and walked all the way to the city.

After entering the city, Song Shuangshuang asked Tan Anjing and He Feiyang to find a place to wait for a while, while she and Song Youlin went to get the things and returned to distribute them to them.

He Feiyang had no objection to this. Originally, it was the relationship between Song Shuangshuang and her brother, so he and Tan Anjing definitely couldn't go with them. It should be the rule.

After the few people had discussed it, Song Shuangshuang and Song Youlin left first. He Feiyang and Tan Anjing stood at the entrance of the alley opposite the supply and marketing cooperative waiting for Song Shuangshuang and her brother.

The brother and sister wandered around in the alley, and deliberately avoided the place where they were followed that day. They found an empty alley and took out the dried mushrooms and some dried black fungus that they had prepared last night from the space.

"Take these first, and we'll talk about it after you sell them all."

Song Youlin estimated that these things weighed about 12 kilograms each and should be able to sell for a while.

Song Shuangshuang thought about it and took out two more plates of eggs.

"If you bring some more eggs, they will sell better." There are only 25 eggs in a box, and they will be sold out in a short time.

"Okay. Let He Feiyang and Tan Anjing go sell eggs and other things, and we'll go to the other side to sell meat. If the sales are good, we'll switch directions in the afternoon."

The brother and sister carried the basket and walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative. He Feiyang and Tan Anjing were observing to see which direction Song Shuangshuang and her brother were coming from.

Tan Anjing was the first to see Song Shuangshuang and told He Feiyang.

Seeing that He Feiyang noticed that she was back, Song Shuangshuang didn't go over there anymore. Instead, she gestured for him to come to this alley from a distance.

He Feiyang walked a few steps and looked around. After making sure that no one was watching him and Tan Anjing, he went towards Song Shuangshuang with peace of mind.
