Chapter 21. The hospital is noisy (21)

Looking at the big white rabbit toffee last night, he opened the door for her.

Look at the sky outside.

Zhang Mei looked at her worriedly.

"Sister, it's a dark day. It's not safe for you to go out for a run as a girl, so let's wait until it's brighter."

To go to the black market naturally cannot wait until dawn.

Nuan Nuan pulled Jiang Shaoqing out again as a shield.

"My brother had a fever when he came to the hospital yesterday, and he was already unconscious. I was a little worried about him, so I wanted to hurry up and take a look. Sister, I'm sorry for causing you trouble. Come back and invite you to have a meal to make up for it. Bar?"

Speaking of eating, Zhang Mei's eyes lit up.

"How embarrassing that is."

Nuan Nuan pulled out something wrapped in oiled paper from her bag.

"What's so embarrassing about it? I was the one who troubled you. Sister, you are such a nice person, so it should be me who is embarrassed. It must be hard to wake you up so early. Eat two pieces of peach cake to pad your stomach, don't hungry."

The weight of this package is not small. It is the size of an adult's palm, and it is quite thick to the touch. It's more than two pieces of peach cake, at least seven or eight pieces.

Zhang Mei's heart was melted by her.

The sincerity in his eyes is a bit more real than yesterday.

"Sister, what do you think you are doing? It's just an effort. Why are you being so polite? Your brother is still sick. Take this for him to eat."

He said he wanted her to take it back, but his hand squeezed the oil paper wrapping the peach cake tightly.

I was very reluctant, so I just kowtowed a few words.

Nowadays, it is difficult for every family. This peach cake costs one yuan a pound, and also has to ask for food stamps. She has not been willing to buy it for her children for a long time.

Although there is an iron rice bowl, how can there be a dozen people in the family without spending money.

Excited, she wanted to go up and hug Nuan Nuan.

Warm confiscated.

"Sister, I have to stay here for a few days. I have to trouble you with everything. As long as you don't mind me being annoyed, it's fine. Put this away, you must be hungry when you wake up early in the morning, so you should be hot all the time. Drink water, don't drink cold water, so as not to upset your stomach, then I'll go first."

After talking, Nuan Nuan ran into the street against the night.

Zhang Mei was so excited that she almost waved her off with a handkerchief.

After closing the door, I hurried back to my workshop. When I opened the palm-sized peach cake, it was covered with a layer of white sesame seeds, and it smelled very fragrant.

She carefully pinched a little bit with her hand and put it into her mouth, it was a fragrance.

Compared with the peach cake in the supply and marketing cooperative, this one is tastier and sweeter.

Sometimes there are a total of 8 peach crisps.

He squeezed a little bit of scum from the paper and put it in his mouth, reminiscing about it with intoxication.

The remaining peach cakes were wrapped in oil paper and put into her own bag, ready to be eaten by the children when she returned.

As for the whole family, she didn't want to hand it in, and it ended up in her child's mouth, and there were not many anymore.

Looking at his bag, after thinking for a while, he took out the peach cake and put it in his pocket, sitting there cautiously, not daring to move.

Warm towards the night.

This black market is usually traded before dawn, and it must be in a remote place with few people.

During the day, she probably wandered around and identified some more useful locations.

I dressed myself up casually, then picked up a basket and walked to the place I had explored before.

It snowed only yesterday, the whole street was white, and the moon hung brightly above the sky.

When the moonlight shines, the entire county seems to be covered with a silver-white coat, so beautiful.

After walking down the street, turn to some trails.

Before reaching the place, suddenly came out from the street corner in front, a person covering his face, looking at Nuan Nuan with vigilance.

"Who are you? What do you do?"

Nuan Nuan shook her basket.

In an authentic dialect, he said to him, "Brother, I'm just selling some things at home. Someone in my family is sick and hospitalized, and I have no choice but to come here to find a solution. The hospital is still urging me to ask for money. Good job. , let me go."

This strange accent made the person's head go numb.

"You're not local."

Warm nodded.

"Well, I escaped with my mother and my brother a few years ago. This accent has never been changed. Don't dislike me."

This is a strong He Province dialect.

The men who listened frowned.

"Don't be useless to me. We have our own rules here. If you go in to buy or sell things, you have to pay a little protection fee, or you can give 5 cents. Which one do you choose?"

Nuan Nuan decisively chose to give 5 cents.

It's hard to tell what's in the basket, what if these people become greedy?
Buyers won't talk about buying and selling, so it's better to avoid these people.

Liu Da took out a handkerchief from his arms and opened it layer by layer.

I counted the dime in bits and pieces and handed it over.

"Brother, here is fifty cents, you can count it."

There is one piece of hair, and the rest are a few cents.

The man waved his hand to let her in after counting.

After turning a corner and coming in, I saw a lot of people in the alley, some people were alone, and some people were squatting under the corner of the wall and muttering.

There are some people on guard around.

Nuan Nuan kept walking forward and looked at those people by the moonlight.

Not long after she walked in, an old lady with white hair walked towards her.

The old lady stepped forward and whispered, "Daughter, do you have any eggs? Can you not have a ticket?"

The old lady was wearing ok, the clothes on her body were clean, and there were two patches at the corners of the clothes, which looked like they were made on purpose.

Nuan Nuan nodded, then pointed to the open space beside him.

It happened to be a corner over there. After turning in from the corner, you couldn't see anyone outside. Nuan Nuan went first, and the old woman followed behind her.

After coming over, the old woman couldn't wait to pull the warm sleeves.

"Daughter, how many eggs do you have? I want them all. The price is negotiable."

The eggs are all in the space, and you can take them wherever you want, but she didn't say much.

"I have [-] eggs here. My price is not high, it's just one more expensive than the market. It's a dime each, and I don't need a ticket."

This dime is really a bit expensive, but thinking about the daughter-in-law who is confinement, the old woman still gritted her teeth and bought the 30 eggs.

Nuan Nuan probably guessed what she was buying eggs for.

After I brought her the egg, she said another sentence.

"I still have two pounds of brown sugar, do you want it?"
