"Why are you like this? I'm afraid you'll die of overeating if you sell so much!"
"It's only five pounds, how is that too much? That guy just bought ten pounds, why don't you go and have a chat?"
......
The two aunts started arguing in front of their stall. Almost everyone in the black market looked over, and soon the manager came over.
Gu Qingmeng and Su Xue looked at each other, quickly packed up their backpacks and wanted to leave. Seeing the administrator staring at them unfriendlyly, they gave the only three remaining eggs to the administrator.
Then they left the black market under the loving gaze of the administrator. After walking a few steps with the baskets on their backs, they found someone following them.
Looking back, they saw that it was the aunt who bought white flour last. They thought she was just passing by and ignored her. She was still following them until they left the black market. Gu Qingmeng frowned and stopped.
"Hehe! I'm not disgusted, nor did I follow you on purpose. I just... I don't know the way." The woman said carefully.
When she saw someone selling fine grains, she rushed over without caring and got separated from her man. She thought that she could follow Gu Qingmeng and the others out of the black market and reach the door she entered the black market through, but she never thought that there was another door in the black market.
"Girl, can you take me to the gate of the black market?"
Su Xue:......
Gu Qingmeng: ...
They have all their weapons out, and are just about to hit you with iron bars, and you tell them you are asking for directions.
Could it be that he sees that they have good food and wants to rob them of their money?
"I'm just an ordinary woman, not from the black market. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me when I tell you this, but I don't know the way outside the family compound. I can't tell east from west. My family won't let me go out. I came out with my husband today. You just need to take me to the gate."
Under the woman's persistent request for help, Gu Qingmeng and Su Xue took their people to the gate of the black market with serious faces!
After walking to the entrance of three black markets, she got a negative answer! Gu Qingmeng reached out and wiped the stick. She even doubted the law enforcement of the fish!
In his head, he imagined the escape route and the success rate of knocking the woman unconscious.
Until Gu Qingmeng's last bit of patience was exhausted, the woman screamed: "Dad, I'm here! Oh my god! I finally found you! If I can't find you again, I'll sleep in the black market!"
Gu Qingmeng and Su Xue looked at each other and slipped away.
No one knew how much money they made on this trip to the black market, but they walked at least 20,000 steps and fell asleep as soon as they returned to the guesthouse.
The next day, the two were woken up by the cold. There was no kang in the guesthouse, only a coal stove. They were too tired last night and went to sleep without adding coal!
This caused the two of them to be woken up by the cold. They looked at the time and it was already six o'clock. They got up and put on their thick down jackets without sleeping anymore.
This down jacket was sent by my uncle and his family. Gu Qingmeng gave one to Su Xue and brought it over yesterday.
"It's already so cold in early November! How are we going to get through the winter? Have you told uncle about Mengmeng's school job? I can't continue. I still have to take care of Weidong when he's discharged from the hospital."
Su Xue hugged her arms and breathed out, filling the room with breath. When she opened the curtains, she saw a sea of white outside. It was snowing, no wonder it was so cold!
Gu Qingmeng also saw the snow outside. Thinking that Pei Xinghe was still wearing thin clothes, she took out a military coat and a gray scarf, planning to take them to the hospital later. If the man asked, she would say that she went to the black market last night.
Su Xue turned around and saw her best friend fiddling with a military coat. Neither her Pei Weidong nor Xiaohua had a military coat, so she immediately asked for one: "See it, get it. My Pei Weidong wants one too! And get a women's coat for my Xiaohua."
"Do you want boots?" Gu Qingmeng wanted to get a pair of boots for Pei Xinghe, but she didn't know the men's shoe size, and it seemed that giving shoes as a gift had a bad meaning.
"Get a pair in size 42. Don't give them to your Pei Xinghe yet. Wait until you get married and give them to him."
Su Xue wanted to light the stove, but she couldn't get it to light after trying for a long time. Smoke filled the whole room. Finally, Pei Xiaohua came over and lit the fire.
Gu Qingmeng watched in silence. She went to the bathroom and when she came back the house was full of smoke. It caused panic and everyone living nearby thought there was a fire.
She accepted being scolded so early in the morning.
"Haha! Let's go buy breakfast first. Xiaohua will be in the hospital during the day, and Mengmeng and I will be in the hospital at night."
Su Xue directly arranged for Gu Qingmeng to work the night shift with her. There was a black market next to the hospital, and it was convenient for them to go there to make money at night.
"Xiaohua, this is the coat I bought for you. Wear it when you go out so you don't get cold. It's snowing today."
"Is that the military coat you bought for me? Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Pei Xiaohua never thought that she would be able to wear a military coat in her life. In the village, only her fourth brother Pei Xinghe had a military coat to wear, which was sent back to him by her third brother.
Unexpectedly, her sister-in-law would buy her a military coat.
"Sister-in-law, I don't want to wear it anymore! It's snowing outside, and it will get dirty if I wear it outside."
She was reluctant to wear the new ones and wanted to save them for the Chinese New Year.
"Put it on. I'll buy you something for the New Year."
How could Su Xue not see that her sister-in-law was reluctant to wear clothes? How could she afford to wear clothes with her around? If she couldn't afford it, she still had her best friend.
With my best friend’s ability, she can support their entire family for a hundred years.
"Xiaohua, put it on! When I get back, I'll write to my aunt and ask her to send us a down jacket so the three of us can wear it together."
The down jacket in the space cannot be taken out. Gu Qingmeng planned to buy one for Pei Xinghe, but now she wants to buy two men's ones.
"Bring one for my Pei Weidong." Su Xue said directly.
Gu Qingmeng rolled her eyes. She knew that girls tend to be outgoing! Especially married women, they are particularly outgoing. Humph!
Su Xue: "I'll give you money."
Gu Qingmeng: "...I've never seen money!"
Pei Xiaohua:...Why does it look like we're going to have a quarrel?
Su Xue: "I was wrong."
Gu Qingmeng: "That's about right."
The three of them checked out of a room, bought breakfast and went to the hospital, arriving at seven o'clock.
As soon as she walked into the ward, she heard a familiar voice. Gu Qingmeng opened her eyes wide. Why did this voice sound more and more familiar?
"Third Aunt is here. I heard it was her voice."
Gu Qingmeng: Flowers! Are you serious?
"Qingqing, you're here. Come in quickly. This is Third Aunt! That's Third Uncle's youngest son, Pei Guoqing. Third Aunt, this is my fiancée, Gu Qingmeng, and that's Weidong's wife, Su Xue."
Pei Xinghe introduced several people to each other with a smile. When he looked at his cousin Pei Guoqing, he was a little speechless. The reason why he didn't like going to his third uncle's house was largely because of his cousin.
"Wow! Sister Mengmeng, you are so beautiful, as handsome as my brother Xinghe. I like good-looking people. Sister-in-law is also beautiful, but a little short."
Pei Guoqing likes to look at good-looking people, so he has been sticking to Pei Xinghe since he arrived at the hospital. The best-looking person in their Pei family is his brother Xinghe.
"National Day, don't talk nonsense. Your sister-in-law Xiaoxue is petite." Aunt Pei saw Gu Qingmeng and the others smiling and felt that they looked familiar. She continued, "Your uncle was busy with work, so we didn't go to your engagement and wedding. Don't be offended. It's really my fault. I..."
