English Translation

This afternoon, Xiaoming goes to the supermarket to buy milk and bread. He sees the price tags: the milk is 12 yuan, and the bread is 8 yuan. He takes out his wallet; inside there are banknotes and coins. He does not use his phone to pay; he wants to use cash. The cashier smiles and asks: How much in total? Xiaoming says: In total, 20 yuan. He gives one 20-yuan banknote. The cashier counts the money, gives him a receipt, and also says: Thank you. Xiaoming looks at the bag; the items are very good, the prices are clear, and he feels at ease. He walks out the door; the weather is mild, there are not many people, and he thinks next time he will also use cash. He thinks it is convenient.
