She Lives Well with the Shopping App in the 80s-Chapter 127: As If Afraid She Would Be at a Disadvantage

Soap?

This stuff isn’t cheap?

"Sister-in-law, I can’t take it, I really can’t."

After Yun Xiaoxiao handed it to her, she said, "I bought everything, but I don’t like this fragrance."

Doesn’t like the fragrance?

"But I can’t accept it either." Soap was indeed not cheap, and she was here to help this time. Previously, it had always been Third Brother helping their family, and now that she could lend a hand, Fang Meiyun was eager to do so.

"Then I feel bad asking for your help." Yun Xiaoxiao said and was about to take back the wool yarn, not letting the young girl help knit the sweater anymore.

Fang Meiyun instinctively hugged the wool yarn and immediately said, "I’ll take it, I’ll take it."

Seeing that the other party no longer refused, Yun Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I’ll have to trouble the little sister."

This sister-in-law seems so afraid of me suffering a loss.

"Sister-in-law, do you want any patterns on the sweater?"

Patterns?

"They are men, they don’t need patterns."

Patterns would require picking colors, which would be quite troublesome.

Yun Xiaoxiao packed up the items and also insisted that Fang Meiyun drink the bowl of mixed milk powder.

"Sister-in-law, I’ll be heading back now."

This time Yun Xiaoxiao didn’t keep her from leaving; actually, she could easily buy a ready-made sweater.

But that could easily raise suspicion. The vests and cotton-padded jackets she bought for Da Bao and the others were also unique to this era.

After Fang Meiyun returned home with the items, she saw her grandmother making shoe pads at the door of the house.

"Grandma, I’m back."

Grandma Fang heard the voice and looked over, noticing her granddaughter coming in with a package.

"Can’t Xiao Shitou’s wife knit sweaters?"

Seeing her granddaughter return with the items, she guessed the outcome.

"Sister-in-law gave me a piece of floral cloth and a bar of soap..."

Fang Meiyun took out the items to show her grandmother.

"Soap?"

Grandma Fang’s eyes lit up; at her age, whether she used soap or not didn’t matter, but her granddaughter had never used soap before, had she?

"Sister-in-law gave it to me; she said she doesn’t like the fragrance." Fang Meiyun took out the soap and let her grandmother smell it to see.

"This smells quite nice." Grandma Fang smelled the fragrance of the soap.

"Look at this piece of cloth."

Grandma Fang also felt the cloth; it was cotton with a floral print. "This is the first time I’ve seen this pattern. It’s very pretty. We should buy some cotton and make you a new cotton-padded jacket. My beautiful girl will surely look lovely in it."

"Your sister-in-law is helping to mend our family."

Fang Meiyun nodded in agreement, "Grandma, I’m going to wash my hands now and start on the sweater, to finish it early for Sister-in-law. She said to knit a sweater for Third Brother and for Da Bao and Xiao Bao as well."

"Alright."

.......

"Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law, are you at home?"

A somewhat familiar voice came from outside; Yun Xiaoxiao put down her book and came out of the room.

"Sister-in-law..."

Yun Xiaoxiao saw it was Er Dan who had come and noticed he was holding something in his hand, "Is this Chinese yam?"

Chinese yam?

Yun Xiaoxiao took it and glanced at it, nodding in acknowledgment, "Yes, Chinese yam. Unlike kudzu, which needs to be crushed to make kudzu powder, this can be peeled and steamed directly. It can also be sliced and eaten raw, or stewed with meat. When you dig it up, it’s best not to break it; if stored well, it can last for several months."

In recent days, there wasn’t much work for the half-grown children like him in the large team, so Er Dan would eat something early in the morning and then go into the mountains to dig up these edibles.
