Chapter 89: Bringing Books Home
Su He and Jin Weiguo asked, "Shall we go back tomorrow?"
Jin Weiguo thought for a moment and said, "I don't know. The higher-ups suspect there's a traitor around me! I don't know if we can find anything this time. If Tian doesn't look for us, we'll go home."
Su He: "Then I will check out of the hospital tomorrow and then go to the supply and marketing cooperative."
When the man heard her say she was going to the supply and marketing cooperative, he pulled out a few tickets from his pocket and said, "Here you go. I'll find someone to exchange them for industrial tickets. You can go and see what's suitable and buy whatever you want. If no one comes to see me tomorrow, I'll go with you."
After the farce last night, the atmosphere in the entire hospital was very strange. Su He felt a little embarrassed. On her way to handle the discharge procedures, she heard several people say that they wanted to apply for a transfer and a change of environment.
Su He thought to herself: "You should really thank me, this unsung hero. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be able to live out your true selves!"
She passed by a ward and happened to see a good show.
The old lady said: "Don't come here again in the future! I will live with the third brother from now on. We are honest and fair. I will take one of the four parts. Don't come here again in the future if you are fine! I don't want to see you guys pretending to be so hypocritical. I hope you will get better soon!"
This must be the result of the truth...
After the couple completed the discharge procedures, no one came to see Jin Weiguo, so he went to the supply and marketing cooperative with his wife.
After going to the supply and marketing cooperative, Su He took a few industrial tickets, thinking about buying something, but soon someone came to find Jin Weiguo and took the man away.
Before leaving, Jin Weiguo agreed that they would meet at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative later.
Since she was the only one left, she had room to play. She bought two bags of shaqima and a pound of candy at the supply and marketing cooperative. She saw that there were autumn clothes for sale and asked about the price. She found out that she could buy a set of autumn clothes with an industrial ticket and five yuan.
At that time, Jin Weiguo gave her four industrial tickets to buy autumn clothes and sweaters, so she bought them for her mother-in-law and three children, but did not buy anything for herself and her husband.
After shopping, Su He went to the bookstore next door to buy books.
Unfortunately, this time, she didn't find any books that interested her. An old man behind the counter saw that she didn't look like buying these books, so he suggested that she go to the scrap collection station to have a look.
Su He asked for directions and actually found a scrap collection station. She thought she would run into the scrap collection station as her predecessors who had traveled through time had said, that there were many good things left behind by others who didn't know the value of them, and she would be able to pick up some bargains.
In fact, there are not so many things that can be missed. No one is a fool, right?
There are indeed quite a few books, including many classic editions, even in foreign languages. However, due to the problem of mainstream values, they are now all treated as waste paper.
Su He found a lot of story books, even an old edition of "Dream of the Red Chamber", and took them out together with other miscellaneous books.
The gatekeeper took a look and said, "Five cents a pound."
Su He gave money.
The old man said, "Before you go back and light the fire, at least take a look. Alas, these are all good things, and they are all wasted!"
Su He nodded: "Well, don't worry about it, I'll light the stove when I get back. This kindling is really good!"
Forget it. The worst thing is to talk too much with someone you just met. It’s not good to talk too much if you don’t know him.
Su He paid fifty cents, carried more than ten kilograms of books, and the old man forced a few incomplete sets of picture books into her mouth, which were "The Biography of Yue Fei".
She thanked him and went out. When she came out, she found a deserted place and left the system warehouse. She only had a snakeskin bag in her hand, which contained the four sweaters.
She walked over to the supply and marketing cooperative and sat on the steps in front of it, waiting for Jin Weiguo.
When it was almost noon, she thought that if he didn't come again, she would go to the state-owned restaurant to buy some buns.
She bought ten meat buns at the state-owned restaurant, spending a pound of food coupons and money, and then went back to sit in front of the supply and marketing cooperative and wait.
It wasn't long before she saw Jin Weiguo driving a jeep with two strangers in it. The man stopped the car and got out to help her carry her things. He said to her, "Those two are from the military. The Liang family has sent a lot of people out. Come with us to arrest people. There's another car coming behind us. Just pretend you know nothing and stay home. Don't come out."
