Chapter 37 – Mesugaki and Ingredients
It’s been a while since I’ve been to the mart, and there was nothing different from what I saw before.
On the cart side, there were children playing around trying to get out of the cart without coins, and men pulling out carts with coins and carrying babies like strollers to buy things.
People of all ages, from young men to older men, were buying things with the idea of what to make for dinner tonight or how they could save more money.
I was one of those people, so I took a five hundred won bill from the frog’s coin purse and put it in the cart.
When the coin is inserted like a key, dozens of times the guy at the back of the cart will fall out and help me with my shopping.
“Um… What should I buy?”
I pulled out the cart and walked around the store looking for groceries.
Starting with various vegetables, fresh fish, delicious-looking meat, and well-ripened fruits, I didn’t buy them, but just looking at them made me feel rich.
We walked slowly and looked around one by one.
“Has the price of eggs gone up again? It passes.”
It was shocking to not be able to eat eggs, one of the soul foods of Koreans, but considering my current situation, it was right not to buy them.
Starting with eggs, the price of milk and vegetables went up, so it was expensive to buy something, and I felt empty to not buy it.
I need to buy something, but I can’t choose because of the price…
You need to find value for money.
This is my final goal
“Oh.. Is this okay?”
The first ingredient was… Miso?
If you boil it once at a price that is not expensive than you think, you can eat it for several days with just one, and it is a fantastic food that you do not get tired of eating 365 days a year.
It is even good for your health.
After discovering the perfect superfood, I couldn’t stand the burning desire to consume in my heart and cried out.
Miso GET.
I, Shin Jae-joon… A person who has reached the extreme of a housewife. I’m still not satisfied with just buying one soybean paste.
My play housewife doesn’t stop.
Starting with soybean paste, I searched for cost-effective foods as much as possible.
“Oh oh! The price is so cheap because it was made in a foreign country?”
Milk imported from the United States, which is large and has a long expiration date, was sold at almost half the price of domestic milk.
The price is so cheap because it’s not domestic…
With a happy smile, he loaded American milk into the cart.
It’s not the milk squeezed by Korea’s small breasts, it’s Cheonjoguk’s big steamed milk,,, Korea lost this time.
“Host… Herbs?”
It looks the same as bean sprouts, but the price is much cheaper than bean sprouts. No, there are cheap ones and even the 1 1 event was underway.
Host greens,
It has a slightly less texture than bean sprouts, but many people don’t notice it when they eat it with their eyes closed.
When stir-frying, I think bean sprouts taste better than bean sprouts.
Bean sprouts seasoned with oyster sauce? That’s meat and sex.
I couldn’t stand it and ended up putting 4 bags of bean sprouts in it.
Since it is an event product, you only have to pay the price of two.
‘I bought bean sprouts, so let’s buy oyster sauce to use when stir-frying.’
If you just stir-fry it, it might be a bit lacking, so I chose one oyster sauce that I thought was good value for money and put it in it.
The combination of oyster sauce and bean sprouts with a crunchy texture? I will never go hungry without eating this.
No, if I put up with this, I might not be human.
“Hehe… I’m already happy to think of something delicious~”
These are side dishes that you can eat for a long time.
The thought of a happy dinner already puts a smile on my face.
Tonight’s bean sprouts party!
Now that I bought my main side dish, it was time to buy something else.
No matter how much money a person has to save, how can he put up with drinks?
Once you become addicted to the unique tangy taste of carbonic acid that pops in your throat, you cannot escape it.
Seriously, would they supply Coke even during wars in the past?
I put 1.5L of Coke regardless of how much money I spent.
“This, next… Um, uh…”
To be honest, I don’t know what to buy next.
I bought food to keep my stomach full and a Coke to quench my thirst, but now I have more to live for?
‘Ah, emergency food.’
Precious food that was written as emergency food and read as ramen remained.
If last time I had no choice but to have mild ramen with only half the soup in it, I will definitely buy you delicious ramen this time.
Among the ramen, the price is cheap and there are 6 ramen instead of 5, so I put it in my cart.
While I was buying ramen, I also brought some Hetbahn that was standing next to me.
Satisfied with the weight of the cart, I put one foot on the cart and kick off the ground with the other foot to ride like a kickboard.
Sometimes it shakes nervously, so it’s dangerous, but I can’t give up this pleasure.
Walking around the mart, chasing the delicious smell.
I’m not planning to buy instant food, but after coming this far, shouldn’t I eat something delicious?
“Can I try this?”
“It’s hot, so blow on it and try it.”
“Thank you!”
One of the advantages of the cute appearance appeared.
The men at the tasting corner don’t like people who just sample and then run away, so there are many cases where they deliberately give out small pieces.
But what if a cute little kid wants to try it? There were many cases where they couldn’t say anything even if they thought of their own children at home and shared a slightly larger piece than usual or ate a little more than one piece.
No, they even look at us happily while saying that they are eating deliciously.
“It tastes good. Did you come to buy groceries instead of your father?”
“Yes!”
“Eat this too.”
“Wow! It is delicious!”
“Then, should I ask my dad to buy this later?”
“Yes!”
I won’t live anyway. Still, I have to lie to my father who is not polite enough to buy it. Isn’t it a win-win relationship?
After eating at the tasting corner just now, we headed to the fried dumpling tasting corner a little further away.
I didn’t know who had already picked them all up and ate them all, but I waited in front of the tasting man who was grilling dumplings.
“Student, wait a little longer. This uncle will cook it deliciously.”
“Sup, ha… It smells delicious.”
The older men who are subtly older often take care of me.
A man helped me in the past, and when I asked him why he helped me, he said he took care of me because he was like his own son.
“Tseu-eup, tseuk… It’s a little bit stuck in my teeth.”
I occupied all the tasting corners in this mart.
Grinding my teeth with the green starchy mustard, I head to the checkout counter.
I was a little hungry because I ate poor rice earlier, but I only feel happy when I fill my stomach with the tasting.
Mart tasting… This is Yasuji.
I don’t know how many times I did Yas today, but it felt like the Herbal Juice was over.
“Do you have a point card?”
“Wait a minute!”
I took out a card from my frog coin purse and handed it to the man.
“Here it is.”
“Good job~.”
I bowed my head and walked out of the store.
I had a lot of shopping to do today, and walking home with a heavy green envelope felt like my back was going to break.
You’re going to lose your back today by taking this?
I was carrying a guy that was estimated to be half my weight.
Suddenly, a cold sweat broke out on my back, and I heard watching eyes.
– Whiik!
“Is there anyone around?”
I obviously felt someone’s soggy gaze, so I turned my head back, but no one was there.
No, I feel some kind of fear on the road where not a single leaf has fallen.
The luggage is heavy, but first of all, I quickly ran to the bus terminal and boarded the bus.
It was this strange and frightening feeling, but I think it’s fortunate that I don’t feel anything anymore when I get on the bus.
Carrying heavy luggage, I took a bus that was more spacious than in the morning and headed home slowly.
***
It was about the time I arrived home with a heavy load of kkuyeok kkuyeok.
“Uh? Jaejoon!”
“To?”
While carrying a heavy load while sweating profusely, I saw a familiar face in the distance.
Jaehee Choi.
Today, unlike usual, he didn’t wear Dolphin pants and a ROKA tee that showed off his big breasts, but he was wearing a black suit with a white blouse that showed off his figure, as if he had an important business.
If I usually had a strong sense of a dog unemployed hikikomori, today I felt more like an office lady working for a large company like Jaeyeon noona.
No, maybe it was because her eyes were sharper than Jae-yeon’s noona, so it felt like I was seeing a more competent company senior among office workers.
“Does it look heavy? Shall I listen?”
“Thank you for that.”
Choi Jae-hee carried the heavy burden for me, and I felt at ease in an instant.
“Where have you been today?”
“That, why?”
“Should I just say that it feels a little different than usual…”
It’s not a different level, I just think it’s a level where people have changed.
“Something important happened today.”
“Ah~ I just asked because it suits me well.”
“That, is it?”
As the color of her ears gradually turns red, Jaehee tries to cool off by pulling on the front of her blouse with her fingers.
“Then I’ll go in first.”
“Uh, yes…!”
– Knocked up.
Jae-hee, who had been helping Jae-joon until just now, took off her suit jacket over it, probably because she was hot, and stood still with her face covered with embarrassment.
‘Jaejun said uh, it suits me…!’
Choi Jae-hee felt better at the compliment he hadn’t heard in a while.
