She woke up from the cold at dawn on a snowy day. She couldn't sleep because of the cold. Although there were quilts in the health center, they were too thin and didn't keep her warm at all. She couldn't sleep. She simply sat up and looked at her father and her second uncle, who were sleeping.

The sweetness.

They have long adapted to the cold, so the temperature in the ward is warmer than at home. How can they not sleep soundly?

Bai Xue can't sleep anymore, so she might as well go out and take a look.

She wandered to the canteen, and sure enough, the canteen was already open. Although there were few patients, the medical staff all ate in the canteen of the health center. So it was normal for the canteen to open early.

Bai Xue walked in. It was the same young gay man as yesterday. He said that he would eat steamed buns in the morning, but if he didn’t have food stamps, he would still have to exchange them with food.

Bai Xue exchanged coarse grains for five steamed buns, three bowls of warm... so-called porridge with clearly visible bottom, and a small plate of pickles.

When she brought breakfast back, both the Bai Daliang brothers were already up.

"Xiaoxue, you got up so early to buy breakfast? Why did you buy so much? You can be discharged from the hospital today. We can go home and eat. You can just buy one person's portion and eat it by yourself!" Bai Daliang said.

"Dad, you are a patient. You need to eat more to get better quickly. If you don't eat, your wound will be damaged. Won't it cost money? My second uncle walked all the way over to give us money. You don't give me breakfast?"

?Okay, let’s eat it while it’s hot! After dinner, I want to go to the supply and marketing cooperative before the oxcart comes to pick us up! This is my first time in Pingyang Town, how can I not go to the supply and marketing cooperative?”

Bai Xue said while getting chopsticks for her father and second uncle.

Bai Daliang really listens to the words of his eldest daughter. Bai Xue knows that the original owner has a personality similar to hers, and this is how her father listens to her.

In my memory, the few times when Bai Daliang got angry, it was her father who was able to coax her, while other people's words had no effect. Even her mother, Wang Cuihua, couldn't coax him well.

"Why go to the supply and marketing cooperative? I have no money and can't buy anything!" Bai Daliang said and took a bite of the steamed bun in his hand. It tasted delicious. No one at home could bear to eat dry food.

"It's good to go and have a look without buying anything! I'll learn a lot! Dad, I still have some money left, let me see what I can buy for mom! She was in confinement so hard! She was still fainting when we came out

I haven’t woken up yet! Remember when my third aunt was in confinement, grandma robbed us of two kilograms of pork to replenish her body, right? But my mother couldn’t even have a full meal during confinement!" Bai Xueti said Wang Cuihua was aggrieved.

She is also a daughter-in-law, but this mother-in-law is too partial.

"What did you say? Your mother fainted?" Bai Daliang asked anxiously as soon as he heard that Wang Cuihua fainted.

"Dad, don't worry. Mom is just too weak after giving birth. I asked Xiaoshan Xiaoyun and the others to cook for mom. There are still two eggs. Mom should be fine!"

"Okay! How much money is left in your hand? I'll buy something for your mother to make up for it. Dad will exchange the cents with the captain for the money to pay back your second uncle when he gets back! Don't lose your mother's life! Just wait for dad to be fine.

Now, go up the mountain to try your luck and catch a pheasant and hare to replenish your mother's health!" Bai Daliang said guiltily. He understood his mother's temperament, but it was too difficult for him to be caught in the middle. Be tough on his mother.

Well, he was also made irresponsible remarks, and the word filial piety weighed heavily on him.

"Okay dad, I understand." Bai Xue nodded, and her heart brightened. We can hunt in the back mountains? Can she use this as a cover to feed her family some meat?

And she had already thought about it, just pay him back the food from her second uncle's money! Even centimeters were not enough to eat, so if she gave him money, he wouldn't be able to buy food without food stamps, so why not find an excuse to take out the food from the supermarket?

Give it back to him.

Bai Xue saw that her father only ate one of the buns and the other refused to eat it. She had no choice but to keep it. Seeing that her second uncle was doing the same, she simply put the two buns into their pockets and packed them away.

After returning the bowls and chopsticks to the canteen, I headed to the supply and marketing cooperative.

The supply and marketing cooperative is not far from the health center, and is in the same direction as the state-owned hotel.

Bai Xue arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative full of curiosity, but what she saw in front of her was a red brick house with an area of ​​only more than 200 square meters. When she walked in, she saw a large space inside, with a glass counter surrounding it, and a salesperson standing behind the counter.

There are dedicated salespersons responsible for classifying various items, and there are several people inside who are buying things.

She walked around, looking here and there, but the salesperson didn't take the initiative to answer her.

She looked around but didn't see anyone selling bicycles. She was a little curious and asked the salesperson selling cloth:

"Sister, where do you sell bicycles?"

The lady selling cloth looked her up and down and said angrily, "We are just a small town here, how can we sell bicycles? Do you want to buy a bicycle?"

"No, I'm just asking!" Bai Xue didn't expect that the supply and marketing cooperative in the town didn't sell bicycles, so she replied a little embarrassedly.

"Hey, why are you asking if you can't afford it?" the saleswoman muttered, and actually lowered her head and started knitting a sweater.

"Sister, are there any cloth sales here that are free of charge?" Bai Xue knew that waiters in this era were so virtuous, so she didn't mind and asked again.

"Are you talking about defective cloth? Can a supply and marketing cooperative for defective cloth be so quiet? No, no!"

Although the saleswoman had a bad attitude, she answered Bai Xue's questions seriously.

Bai Xue was a little disappointed. There was no fabric of this era in her supermarket, and her idea of ​​making a few sets of quilts had to be shelved for now.

Almost everything required a ticket, which gave her a headache as she walked around. Watching people come in and buy things and leave, Bai Xue looked at the various counters like a fool, bought nothing, and walked out in a gray state.

She knew that those salesmen must be saying something behind her.

She was thinking about how to take out the things in the supermarket and use them. She was thinking about this problem all the way back to the hospital.

When I was about to arrive at the health center, my brain suddenly flashed.

She did not enter the health center, but crossed the health center and took a good stroll around the town in the 1960s.

It was almost noon when she came back.

He was holding a cloth bag in his hand, which contained three kilograms of white flour, two kilograms of yellow millet, two taels of brown sugar and one kilogram of pork belly, a Double Happiness red candle the size of a baby's arm, and a handful of old-fashioned paper-wrapped candies.

She didn't dare to take it out for fear of scaring her father.

When she walked into the ward, her second uncle had already gone back to the village to borrow a bullock cart, and her father was the only one hanging the hanging bottles.

"Dad, I'm back!" she shouted.

"Xiaoxue, why have you been shopping for so long?" Bai Daliang was lying down and raised his head to look at her.

"Hey, stop talking. I met an old lady on the way to the supply and marketing cooperative. She slipped and couldn't get up. There was no one on the road, so I had to go up and help her up. But the old lady fell and injured her back, so I had to be kind.

I've done it to the end and sent the person home, but I'm exhausted!" Bai Xue said matter-of-factly.

"Is that person okay?" When Bai Daliang heard this, he was worried about the old lady.

"It's nothing serious. He should just lie on the kang for a few days and be fine! When I sent him back, her son happened to come back. When I saw his mother fall, I was very worried. She even gave me a lot of things to express my gratitude. I said no.

He had to give it to me, didn't he? I got it all back!" Bai Xue then lifted the cloth bag in his hand.

You should go to the state-owned hotel to ask for this cloth bag from Uncle Wang.
