Chapter 333: Fair and Honest Trading
While shopping for groceries, Gu Tiantian discovered a problem.
What if she ends up buying the same ingredients as her uncle?
Just thinking about it made Gu Tiantian sigh.
Has her IQ dropped, or has her uncle’s IQ dropped?
She thought about calling him to see which vegetables he decided to buy so she could avoid duplicates.
But after two calls, no one answered.
It wasn’t until the third call that someone finally picked up.
"Tian Tian, it’s Grandma. Your uncle left his phone at home charging and didn’t bring it with him. Aren’t you with him? Why are you calling? Did you get separated?"
No, it was intentional!
Gu Tiantian raised her head again, looking at the dark steel-frame roof, trying to keep her voice light.
"It’s nothing, Grandma. I did get separated from Uncle, but I can see him now."
"I’ll be done with shopping soon and will be back shortly, Grandma, you take a rest."
"Oh, right, Grandma... Chen Yao will be coming over later!"
Gu Tiantian mentioned Bai Chenyao to remind Grandma, lest she be surprised to see him.
Unexpectedly, on the other end, Grandma Gu was calm and laughed kindly.
"Oh, Chen Yao is coming? That’s good. I almost forgot to invite him, but luckily you remembered, Tian Tian."
"Alright, I’ll tidy up the house a bit. Can’t have it looking messy when Chen Yao comes over!"
Looking at the hung-up phone, Gu Tiantian raised her head towards the dark steel-frame roof again, speechless.
Waaa...
Grandma has totally been influenced by Bai Chenyao, hasn’t she?
Also, the house doesn’t need tidying up, okay?
She specifically checked before leaving; the house was neat and clean.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have said it was fine to head out to the market with Uncle.
She knows Grandma well; if the house looks messy, Grandma would definitely tidy it up.
Grandma just got out of the hospital; there’s no way she’d let Grandma tidy up.
So, Grandma was just in a hurry to hang up!
Good grief...
Gu Tiantian felt completely excluded!
This feeling was really frustrating.
So she was a bit distracted while picking ingredients next.
"Hey, young lady, I haven’t given you your change yet, don’t go!"
Tian Tian turned around with a bunch of pickled potherb mustard, her face adorably dazed, as she looked at the woman handing her a few ten-yuan bills.
"Huh?"
"Oh dear, I said young lady, this is your change. What were you thinking about? You look so cute, so pretty!"
"Here, take your money. Don’t lose it! Otherwise, you’ll go home and find yourself short and think I didn’t give it to you!"
"Although my business is small, it’s just to make a living, I absolutely treat everyone fairly!"
Looking at the woman with a slightly plump figure, chubby face, and some freckles, Tian Tian dumbly accepted the change.
She felt... she truly believed the woman was treating her fairly!
"Thanks!"
Seeing the cute young lady thanking her, the woman couldn’t help but laugh.
"I said, it’s only right to give you change, why thank me? Go buy meat now. You’ve got pickled potherb mustard, how can you eat it without meat?"
Indeed!
She was planning to buy meat.
