"Wu Xiuxiu, your family hasn't come back yet?"

With a "creak", the nurse pushed open the door of Wu Xiuxiu's ward to check on her. She found that Wu Xiuxiu was still the only one in the ward. She raised her eyebrows and walked in to show her concern.

"not yet."

Wu Xiuxiu, who was sitting on the hospital bed and playing with her hair out of boredom, looked at the nurse, let go of the hair in her hands and shook her head gently.

In the past two days, my mother and sister-in-law have been staying with her in the hospital. During dinner, they said that they would sleep with her in the hospital tonight just like they did last night.

It just so happened that I was the only patient in this ward, and there were several empty beds in the ward, enough for my mother and sister-in-law to sleep in.

Originally, my eldest brother wanted to stay overnight in the hospital to keep watch over her these two days, but his friend happened to have something to do yesterday and today, so he switched shifts with him and asked him to help cover the night shift, so he could only come to the hospital to accompany her during the day.

It seems that my brother is very busy, working night shifts and can't sleep well during the day, so he has to come to the hospital to accompany her.

She told him not to come during the day and to rest well at home, since his mother and sister-in-law were always with her in the hospital.

But my eldest brother didn't listen and insisted on coming during the day and only left after having dinner in the hospital.

Just after he left, a relative suddenly came to the hospital to find my mother and sister-in-law, saying that another relative had a conflict with her husband and was trying to commit suicide. No matter how much we tried to persuade her, she wouldn't change her mind. It was terrifying.

Her husband said that her mother and sister-in-law had a good relationship with her, so he asked someone to ask her mother and sister-in-law to go and persuade her.

When my mother and elder sister-in-law heard this, they were very worried about her. Seeing this, I asked my mother and elder sister-in-law to go and see what was going on and persuade the person to stop committing suicide.

My mother and sister-in-law saw that they were much better now and it was okay for them to stay alone for a while without anyone to watch over them, so they asked the nurses in the hospital to take good care of them, saying that they would be back in an hour or so, but they have not returned yet.

I don’t know if it’s because the relative who was threatening to commit suicide was making too much noise that my mother and sister-in-law were still trying to persuade him?

I hope I can persuade him.

I don’t know what happened to the relative who was trying to commit suicide. He actually didn’t want to live anymore and wanted to commit suicide?

"Are you okay on your own? Do you need anything? I can help you. If you want to go to the bathroom, I can help you there."

The nurse was a nice person and walked over to the bed and said.

"I can do it on my own, don't worry. I'm much better now. I can get things by myself and have the strength to get out of bed and walk around.

I can get whatever I need by myself, and I can go to the toilet by myself, no help needed, thank you."

Wu Xiuxiu shook her head again and gave a grateful smile.

"That's good... How do you feel now? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?" The nurse was relieved and asked with concern.

"I feel fine, not uncomfortable." Wu Xiuxiu replied.

I don’t know if it’s because my body is only in its teens and is at its best recovery time, but I only stayed in the hospital for two days and now my body has almost recovered.

During the meal, she discussed with her family that she could be discharged from the hospital tomorrow and would not have to waste money staying in the hospital any longer.

Her family said that if she felt completely fine tomorrow, they would agree to discharge her from the hospital tomorrow.

"I'm glad you're not feeling uncomfortable. Just continue to rest. I'm going to check other wards. Call me if you need anything." The nurse was completely relieved.

"good."

After the nurse left, Wu Xiuxiu suddenly wanted to go to the toilet, so she pulled back the snow-white quilt, got out of bed, and left the ward to go to the toilet.

Because she had gone to the bathroom once in the afternoon and her mother took her there, she knew where the women's bathroom was and she arrived there a minute later.

After going in to relieve herself, she just stood up to pull up her pants when she heard voices coming from outside...

"Nurse Chen, is there really a black market behind this hospital?"

Black market! Wu Xiuxiu's eyes lit up immediately and she pricked up her ears to listen.

"Of course it's true, why would I lie to you?

Isn't there a large open space a few hundred meters behind this hospital? There is a black market there every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday night, just like the big market in the countryside in the past. It's very lively and there is everything you want to buy...

I bought a piece of beautiful floral fabric on the black market a few nights ago, and I plan to make a skirt out of it." Another voice sounded.

"How come this black market is open in the open space behind the hospital, and at night?" the previous voice asked in confusion.

“The inspections have been strict recently, and the black market on East Street has been discovered, so the black market operators have decided to set up their black market every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday on the long-abandoned vacant lot behind the hospital.

The black marketeers thought that the area around that place was overgrown with weeds, which were taller than a person. They thought that hiding there, and at night, would be absolutely safe, and the black market inspectors would never think of it.

"Those who run the black market are really amazing. They can think of running the black market in a place like that, especially at night."

“How can one make a fortune without being capable… I am going to buy a chicken on the black market later. My little son is very greedy and has been asking for chicken every day in recent days. But there has been a shortage of chicken in the past month. Even with money and tickets, I cannot buy chicken.

Luckily, my husband got his salary yesterday, and tonight is Thursday, so the black market is open. I plan to go to the black market tonight to buy a chicken...

There must be chickens for sale on the black market, but they are a bit expensive.”

"I'll go with you. I'll go see what's on sale in the black market."

"good."

At this point, the conversation outside ended and the two people talking went to the bathroom.

Wu Xiuxiu waited until the two men finished using the restroom and left before she went out, thinking in her heart that she also wanted to take a look at the black market.

She is going to do business in the black market!

Before she traveled here, Lord Chicken Fairy left a lot of gold nuggets for her to exchange for money, and stored a lot of supplies in the space.

She had tried it before, and the space and the supplies in it followed her through.

She planned to take out the supplies in the space and sell them for money, otherwise she would be penniless now and would not have a penny on her.

Although her mother would give her five dollars pocket money every month, the original owner was a spendthrift and would spend all the five dollars before the end of each month. This month's five dollars pocket money was spent a few days ago.

If you don’t have money, you won’t feel safe. If you don’t have a penny, you will feel even less safe.

She panicked when she thought about how she was now a penniless woman.

She needs to make some money quickly to make herself feel secure.

Having made up her mind, Wu Xiuxiu returned to the ward. Seeing that her mother and sister-in-law had not returned yet, she was secretly happy.

She took out the clothes she was wearing when she was sent to the hospital, quickly took off her hospital gown and put them on, then took out a hat and mask from the space and put them on, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed, before she quietly slipped out of the hospital.

At this time, people who go to the black market, whether they are buying or selling things, are afraid of having their faces seen and getting into trouble, so they all cover their faces.

There are no street lights behind the hospital, but fortunately the moonlight is very good tonight. The moon is very bright and can illuminate the road, so Wu Xiuxiu doesn't even need to take out the flashlight she had bought and placed in the space.

Wu Xiuxiu kept walking along the road and found that the place became more and more desolate. There was not even a single household, just wasteland. She felt a little scared.

Thinking that there was a knife in the space, she quickly asked the space to send a knife to her pocket, then reached into her pocket and grasped the handle of the knife.

She thought that if she suddenly encountered danger, such as a criminal showing up to rob her of her money and rape her, she could use her body to protect herself. If she couldn't beat the other party, she still had space and could hide in it.

Thinking of this, Wu Xiuxiu was no longer afraid.

She bravely continued walking forward. After walking for a while, she saw weeds that were almost as tall as a person growing in front of her. Thinking of what she had heard in the hospital restroom before, she knew that she must be close to the black market.

She quickly walked to the weeds, went in, and after walking for a minute, she emerged from the weeds. Then her pupils dilated slightly and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

It’s really a different world!

After getting out of the weeds, I saw a huge open space. The open space was full of people and all kinds of things were for sale everywhere. There were customers standing in front of each stall and looking at the things. It was very lively.

This is the black market!

Wu Xiuxiu raised the corners of her lips.
