Chapter 389: The Ancient Scale
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia Ju stood at the door of the room. “The two of you will stay in the big room. I’ll stay in the smaller one.”
Du Yue nodded. “Okay!”
Xia Ju turned around and went to the second room, lying down on the brick bed. There was only a bed with no decorations, but it was very clean. It was obvious that someone had cleaned it often. The young man stood in the courtyard and saw Xia Ju lying on the brick bed casually. He quickly shifted his gaze to the side. “There are blankets and pillows in the box on the brick bed. They’re all clean and can be used directly.”
“Alright, thanks!” Xia Ju replied lazily in the room. Du Yue closed her door and turned to ask the young man, “Do you live alone?”
“No, I’m staying with Grandma and Brother. They’ve gone to work and will probably be back very late. Don’t worry, they won’t disturb you. We’ll be very quiet.”
Du Yue was just asking casually. Seeing the young man’s nervous expression, she could only nod. “Okay.”
The young man wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he did not say anything. Du Yue did not know what to say either. She had already asked all the questions she needed to ask. Awkward conversations were not her forte.
Fortunately, just as the two of them fell into awkwardness, He Xing came back with three hiking bags. Du Yue stepped forward and took one of them. She took out a cloth bag from inside, which contained a pound of whole wheat flour. “Let’s check it using the scale. This is exactly one catty.”
The young man nodded. “Alright, I’ll go get the scale now!”
After saying that, the young man ran into a small house in the corner. After a while, he took out a scale and a weight in his other hand.
Du Yue was stunned when she saw the scale in the young man’s hand. Were there still such ancient scales? She had seen it when she was young, but she had never used it before, nor did she know how to use it. It was obvious that the young man used it often, and his movements were very skilled. Du Yue watched as he hung the bag of flour on the iron hook and the weight on the scale bar.
He slightly pulled the rope on the scale, and the scale slightly tilted. “A little more than one catty…”
“The extra weight is the weight of the cloth bag.” Du Yue said, “Take out the grain and give me the cloth bag.”
The fourth base used food as currency. They would have to pay for food more often in the future, and they could not just give away the cloth bags every time.
The young man nodded. “Okay, wait for me!” Before Du Yue could answer, the young man turned around and ran off again. The young man was very fast. In less than two minutes, he ran back with an empty cloth bag. The young man returned the bag to Du Yue. After hesitating for a moment, he reminded her softly, “Well, you can actually make the flour into bread and trade it with others.”
After saying this, the young man turned around and ran away.
Du Yue looked at the young man’s hurried back and remained silent. Xia Ju had walked out of the room at some point. She seemed a little puzzled. “What does he mean? Why don’t I understand?”
“You haven’t cooked before, right? You have to add water to make bread with flour. After it’s done, it’ll weigh a lot more.”
The young man reminded them because he thought that the three of them did not know about this!
Xia Ju’s face was full of surprise. “Oh my God! I never knew!”
Du Yue smiled and glanced at her. “It’s nothing. Those who haven’t cooked before definitely wouldn’t know.”
People who did not usually cook would not think about this at all, nor would they pay attention to these things. It was normal for them not to know. After saying that, the three of them went to the first room together. He Xing walked at the back and closed the door. Then, he turned around and drew the curtains.
Although it was still foggy outside and others might not be able to see what they were doing in the room even if they stood by their window, it was better to draw the curtains for safety. Du Yue wiped her hands with a disinfectant wipe and took out the food from the space. Living in the same courtyard as a stranger, with only a door separating the inside and outside, Du Yue chose food that was not as aromatic.
Xia Ju nibbled on the steamed bun and salted vegetables, but her gaze was fixed on Du Yue. The two of them sat next to each other. Xia Ju’s gaze was not hidden at all. Du Yue could naturally feel it. “Do you have something to say? If you have something to say, just say it. Why do you keep staring at me?”
Xia Ju bit down on the last bite of the steamed bun. “Are we going to live here from now on?”
Although Xia Ju only asked this question, Du Yue could easily hear the meaning behind her words.
Living in the same courtyard as a stranger, they had to be careful when talking or eating. They probably could not even take a bath. Xia Ju definitely did not want to stay here for long..
