Chapter 90: 0090 I have money, what do I need yours for?_1
Ellen Young and Lucy Wood went to the market together.
The town was not far from the village, about a ten-minute ride by van.
Haran Village belonged to Aiton Town, and basically, people from a few nearby villages all came to this town to shop at the market.
The market wasn’t large, but it had everything one could need—the basic necessities were generally available for purchase.
There was even a decent-sized supermarket at the very end.
After Lucy and Ellen arrived, Ellen headed straight for the vegetable market.
Lucy had never bought groceries before and naturally stayed with Ellen. They needed to buy vegetables and meat, as well as some fruit.
Ellen knew exactly what she wanted to buy and quickly purchased a bunch.
The two were followed by a photographer, and many onlookers were curious to see them.
However, as the shopping went on, the viewers on the barrage started to notice something was off.
Because Ellen did not bargain when she bought vegetables.
Generally, in the countryside, bargaining is a fundamental skill, isn’t it?
But Ellen would just walk up, decide which vegetables she wanted, take them directly, and once she finished picking, she’d pay whatever the asking price was without hesitation.
Lucy had never bought groceries before either, so she didn’t see anything wrong with Ellen’s approach; she was more than happy just to carry the bags.
Barrage:
[Isn’t it normal to bargain when buying groceries?]

[Isn’t bargaining basic common sense? Damn, three yuan per half-kilo for green onions is a normal price???]
[Ellen picks good vegetables, but why doesn’t she bargain???]
[Wow, having an older sister by your side really makes a difference, not bargaining when shopping for groceries, too rich, too rich.]
…
The main issue was that now when people go shopping, they usually try to bargain.
But Ellen really had never encountered the issue of bargaining.
When she wanted to buy something, others usually bought it for her, or when she bought things herself, wasn’t she just paying whatever the seller asked?
After all, whether the amount was more or less, it was all the same in her eyes.
No matter how much the town might overcharge, it wouldn’t be by much, and since she was naturally reticent, it never crossed her mind to bargain.
But in a short while, they had bought a heap of items, so much so that both she and Lucy could barely carry it all.
Lucy, a delicate young mistress, was now finding it difficult to carry several kilos of vegetables, “Ellen, did we buy a bit too much?”
Ellen replied, “We’ll buy enough to last the week, then we won’t have to come back.”
Lucy just responded with an “Oh.”
Ellen bought beef and also got some mutton and lamb; a whole variety of things in the end, all of which they placed in the van.
Lucy also bought a lot of items from the supermarket.
Both of them didn’t care about the price of things; when it came time to pay, Lucy offered to pay, but Ellen had already taken out her cellphone and swiftly scanned a code to pay.
Seeing Ellen cover everything, Lucy felt a bit embarrassed, “I can help you pay.”
Compared to her own expenses, the cost of living in the countryside was negligible, no matter how long she stayed.
Ellen looked at her curiously, “I have money, why would I use yours?”
Just because she accepted some things from Lucy didn’t mean she would accept everything.
She had her own money and was not going to let Lucy pay the bill.
But Lucy couldn’t discern the meaning behind her words and simply thought Ellen didn’t want to use her own money.
And this sadden her a bit.
However, their conversation undoubtedly slapped those barrage viewers who said Ellen was using Lucy’s money right across their faces.
Despite this, they became even more skeptical.
They began to mock even more openly.
