After having a lively meal together, Tang Xinyi took out the gifts for the two of them.
Here are snacks and side dishes unique to their Hongqi Commune, as well as some specialties such as bacon brought from home.
The two grown men took their respective portions somewhat embarrassedly, and then they said goodbye.
However, Li Xiaoya was kept by Tang Xinyi, who promised to send her back in the evening.
First, he took Li Xiaoya to his residence, and then went out shopping with her.
Han Xiaoli, who was bored at home, also went out with the two of them. The other male comrades each made an appointment with their companions to go to the places they had agreed on in advance.
Secretary Wang was invited by leaders from other places to have tea and chat, and he was so busy that he had no time to hang out.
Sure enough, the girl Li Xiaoya is not a simple person. After all, her father is a truck driver.
I took the two of them to the supply and marketing cooperative, the department store, and several fun places.
The three of them had a lot of fun for a while.
During this time, Tang Xinyi also learned about some things in the provincial capital through this little girl.
She even dug out the location of the black market.
After shopping for a whole day, the two of them sent Li Xiaoya home in the evening and gave her a lot of food and headwear.
Some of them were given by Han Xiaoli.
Little girl Li Xiaoya had a great harvest today. She returned home happily and showed off to her parents and brothers.
Because Han Xiaoli is with her today, Tang Xinyi is not able to go to the black market, so she plans to find an opportunity to go and have a look the next day.
After all, it is a black market in the provincial capital, so I think there should be more things there than in their small place.
Having made up her mind, Tang Xinyi washed up early in the evening and had a good sleep.
The next day, I went out alone, found a deserted place to enter the space, put on makeup, and then entered the black market.
The entrance fee to the black market is much more expensive than that to their Red Flag Commune.
Even if you don't buy anything, it costs 50 cents just to enter.
On the contrary, sellers can enter without spending any money.
Tang Xinyi obediently paid 50 cents and went in to take a look around, doing some research on the goods and prices on the black market.
After coming out, he changed his clothes and became an old man in his 50s. Then he went back in carrying a large basket of things on his back.
Since the seller didn't have to spend any money, Tang Xinyi went back and forth several times, of course using different identities.
Although this will be tiring, at least it is safe.
She did not rashly seek cooperation with the local black market. After all, she was not familiar with this place. If she was cheated, she would have no place to appeal.
For two consecutive days, Tang Xinyi was shuffling the goods in the space.
Part of it was sold on the black market, while the other part was sold to several family housing estates and honest-looking families, and a batch of three large items were sold.
Although it was hard work, a large area was cleared.
Tang Xinyi decided that from now on, she would never double the amount of the three major items except for the amount she would use herself.
She still had to focus on preparing food, which was not only easy to sell but also convenient to take out.
Of course, if she comes across money, she will double it.
This was Tang Xinyi's last afternoon in the provincial capital. When she came out of the black market, it was almost dark.
She was very happy thinking that she would be able to go home and see her family tomorrow.
The gifts for my family were bought that day when I was shopping with Li Xiaoli and others.
Now I am just waiting for tomorrow morning to go to the train station to take the train home.
Tang Xinyi found a deserted place, entered the space, and changed back into her own clothes.
On the way back to the courtyard, I suddenly heard a very faint cry for help.
"Sister, save me!"
"Niuniu is starving to death, please save me."
Because the alley she entered was relatively remote, there were not many residents here.
Tang Xinyi was a little surprised when she was suddenly stopped by this voice.
However, after making sure that he had entered the corner of the space and could not see her figure from any direction of the road, he stopped with confidence and stopped at the door of a courtyard.
"Sister, save me, Niuniu is so hungry. Niuniu has been hungry for three days. Niuniu is dying!"
The sound inside was very weak, even a little breathless.
Tang Xinyi pushed the gate and found that she couldn't open it.
"Little sister, can you open the door first? I have food here!"
Tang Xinyi couldn't open the door, so she could only speak to the girl inside.
"Niuniu, open the door! Sister, don't go! Sister, save me!"
The little girl might have been lying under the gate before. When she heard Tang Xinyi say there was food, she used all her strength to climb up.
Then he went to the yard to bring a small stool, stood on it tremblingly, and opened the bolt of the gate.
"Little sister, please stand back for a moment. I'm going to open the door!"
Seeing that the bolt had been opened, Tang Xinyi had just heard the sound of the little girl moving a chair, so she gave a special reminder at this time.
"Sister, wait a minute, Niuniu has no strength!"
The little girl answered with difficulty, then dragged her chair to the side.
When Tang Xinyi opened the door, she found that it was a dilapidated courtyard. Inside, there was a skinny little girl sitting on the ground, dying.
"Little girl, what's wrong with you?"
"Where are your parents?"
Tang Xinyi felt a little distressed, so she picked up the child and put him on the stool.
Then he smuggled a box of rice from the space into his bag.
"Eat quickly, and talk after you finish eating!"
Seeing that the little girl wanted to explain, Tang Xinyi quickly stopped her.
The little girl was so hungry that her bones were visible. It seemed that she hadn't eaten for a long time. She was so thin that she looked unrecognizable.
If Tang Xinyi didn't know that the other person was a human, she would probably think she saw a ghost when she first saw him.
"Thank you, sister. Niuniu, have some, just a little!"
The little girl originally wanted to say that she would only eat a little, but when she smelled the fragrance of the food, she took the spoon handed to her by Tang Xinyi and scooped food into her mouth one spoonful at a time.
She chewed every bite of food desperately, and she didn't dare to stop even if her cheeks were sore from exhaustion.
Dad chews food into fine pieces before swallowing it. This is what mom told her when she was alive.
You must chew your food slowly and thoroughly, so the little girl is very particular about chewing every bite of food she eats.
But now she was really hungry. She couldn't keep calm when the food was in her mouth and she chewed the food as quickly as possible.
"Is there any water at home? I'll go get you a glass of water."
Seeing that the little girl could eat by herself, Tang Xinyi stood up and walked to a place that looked like a kitchen.
There is a large water tank in the kitchen, and the water in the tank is almost empty.
The pot was also clean, and there was nothing edible in the entire kitchen.
Fortunately, this small courtyard has its own well, and Tang Xinyi took a bucket to the well and drew a bucket of water.
