Chapter 13: Grandma's Words Are Followed by Laws
Eat breakfast.

Although sometimes I eat at four or five in the morning, and sometimes at 12 noon, I still have to eat.

Chen Jingle usually has several types of breakfast, such as taking out pre-made bread from the refrigerator to heat it up, or cooking egg noodles or instant noodles.

If you are a little lazier, just eat some dry food.

Or you can just go out and buy soy milk for one dollar, fried dough sticks and buns for one dollar, egg burgers for two dollars, and rice rolls with eggs and meat for five dollars.

This is the price of goods in rural areas on the outskirts of the city.

The only thing I don’t do is cook in the morning.

I finally got up in the morning. I'm not in a hurry and I don't have to cook, so I can eat something else.

Open the door and feed the meowing tiger cub first.

Then he put on his helmet, rode on his beloved electric scooter, and prepared to go out to buy breakfast.

Stop by the supermarket to buy some food.

In fact, there is a vegetable market nearby, which is formed by the confluence of several villages. Breakfast is usually bought there, but Chen Jingle doesn’t like to buy vegetables there.

When he first moved back home, he went there to buy things a few times and was ripped off by some unscrupulous vendors.

Since then, he would rather go further to the big supermarket in the city to buy things, even if the prices in the supermarket are a little higher, than to go to the vegetable market.

At least supermarkets clearly mark prices and verify the exact weight.

Men are like this. They can work in the same barber shop for several years and eat the same pork trotter rice in the same shop for three consecutive months. But if one day they find out that they have been cheated, they may not complain to the man's face, but they will never patronize that shop again in their life.

Chen Jingle decided to go to the supermarket first because the place to buy breakfast was closer to home, and then buy it when he came back.

You can't carry your breakfast with you to the supermarket, right? That's too much trouble.

There is a provincial road outside the village entrance. There are quite a lot of cars, including some dump trucks, running around recklessly.

"Are you afraid that your fortune has come so quickly? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?"

Chen Jingle kept cursing all the way.

It's no wonder that he scolds the driver when he's riding an e-scooter, and scolds the rider when he's driving. If you live long enough, you'll find that there are indeed a lot of idiots in this world.

When you pass by People's Park, you will see a group of retired old ladies dancing in the square. Some are sitting in the pavilion playing the erhu, some are practicing the Iron Mountain Leaning exercise by banging their heads against trees, and some are practicing the Iron Shirt exercise by pounding their chests.

Oh~
Morning of the Gods.

……

There is a supermarket just across the intersection.

This supermarket is a local brand, and its product prices are much cheaper than those of its competitors, such as Run and Lianhua.

As for the legendary Donglai, Chen Jingle felt that the online reviews were somewhat exaggerated.

If it's really that good, why doesn't he open one right outside his house?
Without further ado, I came to the supermarket to shop today.

Rush!
The supermarket is very busy in the morning, full of uncles and aunts who come to buy groceries, and middle-aged housewives. There are only a handful of people like Chen Jingle.

So much so that many old ladies would subconsciously take a few more glances at Chen Jingle when they saw him.

Fortunately, he was wearing a mask and no one knew him. As long as no one could hear him in person, he didn’t care what they said behind his back.

"I have to eat something good today!"

Chen Jingle decided to continue learning cooking in today's practical class.

With the help of the system, all my moves are at the master level. Shouldn't I reward myself greatly?
You can study and eat at the same time.

Delicious food is the cheapest source of happiness!
In life, eating, drinking and being happy are enough.

"Help me get a rib and chop it into small pieces so I can make some soup."

"Do you have any pork neck left? Please cut two pounds for me to make barbecued pork. I want it to be leaner!"

"How much is beef brisket per pound? 35? Hasn't the price of beef been reduced? Why is it still so expensive? Give me two pounds."

That's all the meat.

Then there are vegetables. I use corn and carrots to make soup. I originally planned to buy some lotus roots, but the quality of lotus roots today seems not very good, so forget it.

Let's have some potatoes. Chen Jingle thinks potatoes are really a perfect vegetable. They are delicious no matter how they are cooked, such as stewed beef brisket with potatoes.

The opposite of that is damn ginger.

Buy some more fruit.

Hami melons are quite cheap, I'll have one. Seedless red grapes are not expensive, I'll have two kilograms too.

If Chen Jingle could eat that much, he could fill up the shopping cart. There is no need to stock up too much.

There is no need to stockpile so many supplies unless there is a typhoon, heavy snow or special circumstances.

People in the south still prefer to buy fresh ingredients.

While queuing to pay, Chen Jingle made a rough estimate and found that he had overspent a little, but it was not a big problem.

You can't make four dishes and a soup for 20 yuan every day, right?

People should be nicer to themselves!
……

He was waiting in line when suddenly a woman squeezed in and cut in front of him.

Chen Jingle immediately became unhappy: "Beauty, please queue up."

He won't tolerate such people, he's wearing a mask anyway.

The other person turned his head and looked at him. He was probably in his thirties or forties, and looked as if he was going to a grave when he went to work. He said nothing and turned his head away again.

Chen Jingle became even angrier.

But before I could say anything, the old man in front of me said, "Don't cut in line, okay? If you want to pay, go and queue up yourself."

Others also started to criticize:
"That's right, everyone is queuing up, why aren't you queuing up?"

"Queue up, don't stand in the way if you're not queuing!"

"You dress like a decent person, but you don't even follow the basic social order. You are disrespectful to the neighbors!"

"I'm still queuing at 80, why aren't you queuing?"

"..."

Seeing that this had caused public outrage, the woman immediately became angry and said, "What's wrong with me not queuing? Can't I just cut in if I'm in a hurry?"

An auntie at the back raised her voice and said, "Who isn't in a hurry? If you're really in a hurry, you should at least talk to the person in a nice way. How dare you squeeze in without saying anything?"

"I'm good-looking, isn't that okay?"

The old lady said arrogantly: "I am so pretty, why can't I cut in line?"

Hu~~
When these words came out, everyone around was really stunned and looked disgusted.

Who is this?
Just you? Good looking?
Do you want to look in the mirror? Besides, you still can't pee without a mirror?
Chen Jingle was speechless and stepped back slightly. He was afraid that the woman's saliva might be poisonous.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, supermarket staff rushed over to deal with it.

"Come on, come on, line up here, you can also pay here."

The old lady snorted heavily, turned around and switched to the other line, emptying the shopping basket one basket at a time before anyone else did.

"Damn, I stepped in dog shit so early in the morning. It's disgusting."

Chen Jingle shook his head.

The old lady in the queue behind me snorted angrily and whispered to her old girlfriend who came to buy vegetables with her: "That woman has a mean face and speaks without restraint. Sooner or later, this kind of person will get into trouble. Just wait and see."

When Chen Jingle heard this, he couldn't help laughing, but he didn't take it seriously.

However, when he came out of the supermarket and was about to ride away, he found that at the opposite intersection, the old lady who had cut in line just now had her electric bike scratched against someone else's car, and was now making a scene, pointing at the driver of the car and cursing at him.

But judging from the scene, it looked more like she was crossing the road and hit someone.

Chen Jingle was stunned.

"Grandma's words are true to her words. Something really happened."

"It's a pity that he's alright."
