She's been here for so long, and she really misses her grandparents.
She had originally intended to persuade the three elderly people to come and live with her, but after what happened to the Xiao family, she suddenly changed her mind.
The military region doesn't seem peaceful either, and who knows what will happen next? She doesn't want to cause trouble for the three of them.
However, the scarf that Liu Meiling gave her did provide a clue.
Although she left behind enough supplies for the three of them to live on when she left, she ultimately couldn't stay by their side.
I was thinking of knitting a sweater and pants for each of the three elderly people and sending it back to them.
She's a woman of action; if she has an idea, she does it.
He simply slung a cloth bag over his shoulder, hopped on his bicycle, and rode off to the town's supply and marketing cooperative.
Their hospital has good benefits; in addition to their salary, they also receive some rare tickets every month.
She didn't have enough wool coupons to knit three sweaters, but she knew that some defective products, like those with slightly damaged dyeing, didn't require coupons.
She'll try to find a way to buy more. Ideally, enough for her and her brother-in-law to each get a complete outfit!
That's a lot; you definitely can't get it from a regular salesperson.
When she arrived at the town's supply and marketing cooperative, she did not enter through the main gate, but instead went around to the office area.
The people inside are currently busy writing furiously.
Bai Yajing took out the frostbite cream she had prepared earlier and went up to knock on the window next to the female comrade.
He lowered his voice and called to her, "Comrade, Comrade..."
The person who was disturbed was originally going to get angry, but she's busy with inventory right now!
Who is it?
Bai Yajing quickly put her index finger to her lips and said, "Shh! Comrade, I see your hands are starting to swell and turn red. This is clearly an early sign of frostbite from washing clothes in cold water."
Have you been feeling terribly oxygen-deprived when I put you in bed these past few nights?
Women have it tough. After a long day at work, they still have to wash and clean when they get home. And with the cold weather here, it's no wonder they get frostbite!
The woman listened to her words but didn't pay much attention, since eight or nine out of ten women and children here had frostbite.
The women take care of the household chores, doing laundry and cleaning, while the children love to go out and play and get cold. So it's not surprising that people can tell.
"What, do you have some good medicine?" She was a quick-witted person and knew that the other party must have something to ask her, so she lowered her voice and asked.
The supply and marketing cooperative did have frostbite cream, but it wasn't very effective. Otherwise, she wouldn't be suffering so much.
Bai Yajing showed her the frostbite cream in her hand.
“My family has a recipe that was once used by high-ranking officials and nobles. I’ve made two boxes. Would you be interested in trying it?”
The woman hesitated for a moment, then thought of the agonizing itch she had felt that night, and gritted her teeth, saying, "Wait for me."
Bai Yajing nodded quickly.
The woman tidied the table, opened the door, and came out.
She pulled the person to a corner.
Where is the stuff?
Bai Yajing opened the box, revealing a beige cream inside, which also emitted a light fragrance.
"Comrade, you can try it now."
The woman was already looking forward to it just from the fragrance.
I quickly took it, scooped out a little with my finger, and applied it to the red and itchy areas on my hand.
A cool sensation covered the red and swollen area, followed by a warm feeling. After a while, the itching that had been making her head ache and her heart pounded stopped.
Her eyes lit up. "Young comrade! This is the first time I've ever used such a fast-acting frostbite cream!"
"Tell me, what do you want from me? Or do you just want to sell me your frostbite cream?"
Bai Yajing didn't beat around the bush. She smiled and took out another box of frostbite cream, along with the one she had tried, and put it in her hand.
