When she entered the department store, she asked Liu Ermei, "Ermei, what do you want to buy?"
"I don't have anything I want to buy, but I want to bring gifts for my family. Do you know of anything that's both affordable and good?"
"I'm really not sure about this, but the supply of White Rabbit candies in Beijing is relatively sufficient, and the price is not expensive. How about you buy a bag of White Rabbit candies and bring them back for your third and fourth sisters?"
"Okay, then let's go buy some White Rabbit milk candy first." After Liu Ermei finished speaking, she pulled Lu Xiaoxiao towards the candy counter.
When she walked to the candy counter, she asked the salesperson, "Comrade, how much is a pound of White Rabbit milk candy?"
"Two dollars, plus a candy bill for one jin."
After hearing what the salesperson said, Liu Ermei knew that she couldn't buy anything today, so she smiled apologetically at the salesperson and pulled Lu Xiaoxiao away.
"What's wrong?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Liu Ermei when she saw Liu Ermei suddenly pulling her away.
"I don't have any candy coupons, so even if I had money it would be useless."
"You don't have tickets, but I do. Tickets are the last thing I need. Tell me what kind of tickets you want."
"Is it really possible?"
"It's all right. Tell me, what kind of ticket do you want?"
"Sugar tickets."
After hearing what Liu Ermei said, Lu Xiaoxiao took out the three candy tickets from her bag and handed them to Liu Ermei, then said to Liu Ermei: "Next, buy whatever you want, I'll give you the tickets."
"Thank you, but I don't want the ticket for nothing. I'll make up for the cost later."
"Okay, go buy the White Rabbit candies quickly, or they will be sold out in no time."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Liu Ermei immediately walked towards the candy counter. Then she took out money and a ticket from her pocket and handed them to the salesperson, saying, "Please weigh three pounds of White Rabbit candy for me."
After hearing what Liu Ermei said, the salesperson glanced at her, then she reached out to take the money and ticket, and took out three packs of White Rabbit milk candy from the counter and handed them to Liu Ermei.
After Liu Ermei took the White Rabbit candy handed to her by the salesperson, she stuffed it into her backpack and asked Lu Xiaoxiao, "Do you sell pens here?"
"Of course there is. It's on the second floor. I'll take you there." After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she took Liu Ermei to the second floor.
When they reached the second floor, Lu Xiaoxiao said to Liu Ermei, "That counter sells stationery. The pen you want to buy is inside."
"Then let's go together."
"Okay." After Lu Xiaoxiao said that, she and Liu Ermei walked towards the counter.
When they walked to the counter, Liu Ermei was attracted by the Hero brand pens on the counter.
So she asked the salesperson, "How much is this Hero brand pen?"
"Five dollars a pop, no ticket required."
"Then please get me four."
“Are you sure you want so many pens?”
"Sure." After Liu Ermei finished speaking, she took out two big unity notes from her bag and handed them to the salesperson.
After the salesperson took the money Liu Ermei handed to her, her heart finally settled down. She quickly wrote out the receipt and handed the pen to Liu Ermei.
After Liu Ermei took the pen handed over by the salesperson, she took out one of them and handed it to Lu Xiaoxiao, saying, "This is for you."
"Why did you give me a pen?"
"Thank you for helping me all these years."
