Chapter 2003: Not Stopping
When Liu Ermei returned home, she saw that her parents were at home, so she closed the door of the main room and started taking things out of the backpack.
"Second sister, didn't you tell me that you were going to get a haircut today? Where did you get these things?" Liu asked Liu Ermei after seeing the pile of things she took out.
"I bought these things. Didn't you say it was going to snow soon? So I bought some things and put them at home."
"Where did you get the money? Where did you get the tickets? You can't buy these things without ten dollars."
After hearing what Liu said, Liu Ermei thought that these things were worth more than ten yuan. She spent almost twenty yuan to buy them.
"Mom, some time ago, Liu Biao and I went up the mountain to look for mountain products, and we found some medicinal herbs. We dug them up and sold them in the county town, so we made a little money."
"Oh, now that I know where the money came from, where did you get the ticket?"
“You don’t need a ticket to buy anything.”
"How is that possible? Nothing you bought required a ticket."
"Second sister, did you go to the black market?" Liu Pingjiang asked Liu Ermei.
"What? You went to the black market? Don't you know how dangerous that place is? Did I give you less food or water, so that you would risk your life for food?" As soon as Mrs. Liu heard that Liu Ermei went to the black market, she scolded Liu Ermei.
"Mother, don't be so quick to scold my second sister. She is not the kind of person who acts rashly. It won't be too late to scold her after you have listened to her explanation."
After hearing what Liu Pingjiang said, Liu's anger subsided a lot. She also knew that Liu Ermei was not the kind of person who would do things without knowing the limits, so she was willing to give Liu Ermei a chance to explain.
"Second sister, tell me why you want to go to the black market." Liu said to Liu Ermei.
"Mom, I went to the black market just to buy meat. You know you need a ticket to buy meat at the supply and marketing cooperative, but my family doesn't have any meat tickets at all, so it's impossible to buy meat. That's why I chose to buy meat on the black market.
But I didn't go into the black market rashly. The black market I went to was very safe. Xiaoxiao bought things in that black market.
And I heard from Xiaoxiao that the black market is protected by someone, so as long as you pay the entry fee of 50 cents, the people in the black market will protect you. "
After hearing what Liu Ermei said, Mrs. Liu didn't know what to say. She knew that Liu Ermei went to the black market for the good of the family. However, when she thought of the black market, she couldn't help but feel scared, fearing that Liu Ermei would be caught.
"Second sister, I won't stop you from going to the black market in the future, but you have to promise me one thing." Liu Pingjiang said to Liu Ermei.
"Boss, how can you let your second sister go to the black market? What if something goes wrong?"
"Don't be impatient, just listen to what I have to say."
"Dad, what do you want me to agree to?" Liu Ermei asked Liu Pingjiang.
"From now on, you can only go to the black market with Lu Xiaoxiao. If Lu Xiaoxiao doesn't go to the black market, you can't go to the black market."
After hearing what Liu Pingjiang said, Liu Ermei agreed without thinking. She didn't even dare to go to the black market alone.
She had originally planned to follow Lu Xiaoxiao to the black market so that she could keep Lu Xiaoxiao company.
After hearing what Liu Pingjiang said, Liu finally understood why Liu Pingjiang agreed to let Liu Ermei go to the black market. With Lu Xiaoxiao around, nothing would happen to Liu Ermei going to the black market, because Lu Xiaoxiao was a very capable person.
