Chapter 59: This is outrageous
Ying Sisi finally heard the answer she wanted to hear. "Review, sister-in-law. I suddenly remembered something else. I'll be leaving now."
"Oh, slow down."
"Well! Goodbye." Ying Sisi kept analyzing Qin Yanci's affairs on the way home.
Did something go wrong while helping her sell stamps?
How could she explain that she had seen him buying books yesterday?
Should I tell my parents-in-law?
She struggled for a long time and decided to keep it secret.
Qin Yanci has been receiving a monthly salary from the farm for ten years. If he uses all his savings to buy a quiet place of his own, wouldn't it be exposed if she said that?
She should handle the black market matters herself.
She first found Aunt Liu, who had told her the location of the black market last time, and asked, "Auntie, aren't you visiting relatives today?"
"We finished walking yesterday, why didn't you leave?"
"I'm not very familiar with my aunt's relatives, and I don't know what to say to them when I get there, so I might as well stay at home. This is for you." Ying Sisi took out the chestnut cake she bought for Qin Yanci.
Aunt Liu, who always loved taking advantage of others, beamed with joy: "Where did you buy it? Hmm, it tastes really good. The crust is so crispy and fragrant."
"I bought it from the Sixi Shop in the city. If you like it, I'll bring it back to you next time I pass by."
"That's a lot of money."
"You're welcome."
Aunt Liu, while accepting Sisi's order for chestnut cakes, recounted gossip about the neighbors. Finally, she mentioned the raid on the East City black market. "I heard it was a lively day. I wanted to go, too, but I had diarrhea from eating too much oily food during the New Year, so I couldn't go. I would have definitely been criticized otherwise."
Ying Sisi said casually, "During the New Year holiday, everyone is idle. People who can't afford to go to department stores don't know what to do at home unless they go to the black market."
"Do you think there's only one black market in the east of the city? We have two in the west of the city, but they're not as lively."
Ying Sisi pricked up her ears: "Where is it? I want to go shopping."
"I also heard about the approximate location from someone." Aunt Liu said the place and said, "Take me with you when you go there."
Ying Sisi said angrily, "If you don't tell me specifically, how can I find a place to take you?"
Aunt Liu chuckled and changed the subject to Li Yuwei: "How's your sister's situation going? Have your parents agreed?"
"Aunt Liu, you know my situation. Do you think they will tell me?"
Aunt Liu said with some distress, "I really don't know what your father was thinking. He delayed you for so many years and married you off right after bringing you home. Your sister is like that, and yet they let her be."
Ying Sisi sighed softly: "Perhaps this is my fate."
"Marry into a good husband's family, and you can change your fate in the future."
Ying Sisi smiled. Who could tell what would happen in the future? She had already grasped the situation she wanted to know and said goodbye: "Aunt Liu, you are busy."
"Hey, come visit often when you have time."
"Okay." Ying Sisi prepared to leave for the black market immediately.
As she passed by her home, Li Junlu called out to her, "Si Si, where are you going?"
"Come by."
"Stop wandering around and come with me to the hospital." Li Junlu frowned.
"Hospital? You and Yuwei can go together."
"It's Yuwei who's in the hospital."
Ying Sisi raised her eyebrows. Li Yuwei was in the hospital? She pretended to be concerned: "What happened to her?"
Li Junlu sighed, "Oh, it was Feng Erliuzi who caused all this trouble. I don't know who he offended, but I heard he was tied up in the woods near Qianjiagou. He got scared and became insane. When he was sent home, we happened to be walking back. When he saw your sister, he excitedly shouted and yelled, wanting to split up with her.
The police suspect we did it. Luckily, we were visiting relatives today, so we have an alibi, and we don't usually come into contact with bad people. Otherwise, we would be detained and interrogated right now."
