When they arrived at the delivery location, Gu Qingmeng was dressed in black, with a hat and mask covering her face tightly. She took out the food and placed it in the woods, while she stood aside holding a machete.
Su Xue changed into her daytime clothes and went to pick someone up. When she returned to the grove, she saw Gu Qingmeng holding a knife. Even Su Xue was shocked, not to mention the people who came with her to buy food.
Everyone lowered their heads and dared not say a word. At midnight, a man in black holding a knife directed a group of people to move things.
Since then, a legend has been circulating in Xiai City that every midnight, the Black Grim Reaper will come out to catch wandering ghosts, and no one is allowed to enter. If you accidentally encounter him, you will suffer a serious illness at best, and at worst you will die. People believe this without a doubt.
"Sister, when will there be more food? My aunt's family also wants to buy some."
The man had already walked away with the food on his back. After thinking about it, he suppressed his fear and turned back. He had already given him money, so he would not pick up a knife and attack him for no reason.
"Haha! Big brother, you can see the goods are all new grains from today. Good things are hard to come by, but don't worry, I will come to you first if I have the goods. I can't guarantee the price will be the same as this time. I am just a low-level errand boy, so I have no say in the price."
Su Xue's after-sales service is very good. She will answer any questions asked by customers. Will she sell to you next time? But customers must be well-received. She is the best salesperson.
"That's right, sorry to bother you, sister. Next time you need something, you must come to me!"
The man was a senior worker at the steel mill, with six children. Their rations weren't enough to support them, so they had to buy them on the black market at exorbitant prices. They were incredibly lucky to get such a good deal! He was going to keep half of the rations; they'd have enough for the children.
It was already late at night when they returned to the guesthouse. They went into the space to wash up and have a midnight snack, and then they felt energetic and not sleepy at all.
Looking at the fertile land in front of the yard, I rolled up my sleeves and worked. There were only a few corns left, so after the harvest, I burned the corn stalks and rice straw as fertilizer.
There are only about three acres of land in front of the yard. She uses one acre to grow vegetables and two acres to grow grain. The edible roses are ready to be harvested. Gu Qingmeng picked a basket of roses and planned to make rose jam and rose wine.
Wash the rose petals and drain the moisture. Gu Qingmeng made two kinds of rose jam, one pickled with honey and the other pickled with white sugar.
The wine is made directly with sorghum wine and rock sugar. After soaking for half a month, take out the petals and the rose wine is ready. However, Gu Qingmeng likes to heat it again, which can reduce the alcohol content of the wine and make it more suitable for girls' taste. The same production steps are used for fruit wine.
"Mengmeng, the quails we raised have started laying eggs. Look, I picked up half a basket of eggs."
I haven't been in the space for a few days, but I didn't expect there would be a surprise. The quails have started laying eggs, so are the big goose eggs far behind? It's worth it for Su Xue to spend so much effort feeding them.
"Great! I'll make you some salt-baked eggs when I get home. I hope they haven't starved these past few days. I'll also make a few chicken coops with straw so they don't lay eggs everywhere."
They have already learned how to weave a chicken coop. The chicken coop at home was woven with the help of Aunt Shuqin. Gu Qingmeng was able to learn how to weave it after watching it twice. The quail coop needs to be woven smaller.
"Hey! I'll do the weaving, and you make some rose cakes?"
When Su Xue saw roses, she thought of rose cakes. The rose cakes baked with fresh rose fillings were so fragrant that they made her drool.
I have to prepare what my best friend wants to eat, bake a few more, and take them out for my younger brothers to try tomorrow, and say that I bought them on the black market.
They were busy until six o'clock. After leaving the space, they lay on the bed and wanted to take a nap for an hour. Unexpectedly, they slept until ten o'clock. They were woken up by a knock on the door.
"Comrade, someone's looking for you. They're waiting downstairs!"
Recognizing the voice of the hotel waiter, Gu Qingmeng raised her wrist and saw that it was already past ten o'clock. She quickly woke Su Xue up. She rubbed her face several times before she finally woke up!
I guess Pei Xinghe and the others are here. By now, the discharge procedures should be completed. This sleep was a little uncomfortable. When Gu Qingmeng saw the dark circles under her eyes in the mirror, she was about to go crazy. Is staying up late really a bad thing? She has become ugly.
"Ah... Mengmeng, my dark circles and bags under my eyes, what should I do? What should I do?"
Su Xue was shocked when she saw the ghost-like woman in the mirror and couldn't help but collapse. The eye bags of people with big double eyelids were swollen and big.
"Use the emergency mask. It would be great if I had a refrigerator. A cold compress can quickly reduce swelling."
It was already eleven o'clock when the two of them finally walked downstairs. As soon as they went down, the four or eight eyes lit up.
"You must be getting anxious! We didn't sleep well last night. We got up a little late."
Gu Qingmeng saw the four people taking a lot of things in a mess. She didn't say anything about the empty cans and bottles they took, as supplies were in short supply these days. But what the hell were potties and urinals?
Why would you take these things home? Do you intend to use them at home?
"Throw away the urinal and bedpan. You can still use them when you get home."
"Sister, this is something we paid for. We cleaned it thoroughly and it doesn't have any smell. We need to take it home."
Gu Guoliang hid the urinal behind him, just in case he needed it in winter.
"Don't tell me you want to use it in the house. Just throw away the things you don't need!"
Gu Qingmeng had some concerns about urinals and potties. During the first two days of her two younger brothers' hospitalization, she had to check their excrement every day to see if there was any bleeding. Now she wanted to take the potties home, but she disagreed.
"Um, can you give me the urinal you don't want?"
"I want one too!"
Two waiters from the guesthouse spoke one after another.
Gu Qingmeng: ...
