Chapter 43: go to county 3
Guo Aidang said, took out a pen and a piece of paper to write the address of his home, and handed it to Zhao Xiulan.
Zhao Xiulan put the note in her pocket, and it is indeed okay to trade with Guo Aidang after a while.
As long as it doesn't appear that she can take out a lot of food at once, it's fine.
After the transaction was over, the two hurriedly parted ways, for fear of being discovered.
Zhao Xiulan is going to go to the black market again. She has a lot of food and supplies in her space. She strives to make more transactions and exchange more money and tickets.
Zhao Xiulan found a hidden place, and took out some food and put it in the basket.
As soon as I arrived at the black market, I saw an old lady asking about food, but after asking a few people, the old lady didn't ask any questions, her eyes were lost.
After walking a few steps, the old lady suddenly fell to the ground without knowing what was wrong.
Zhao Xiulan hurriedly ran over to take a look, and found that the old lady was very weak, her breath was a little weak, her complexion was sallow, malnourished, and she looked like she was fainted from hunger.
Zhao Xiulan supported the person and went under a locust tree, and asked the old lady to lean on the trunk. There was no one passing by and it was not noticeable.
"Auntie, are you all right?" Zhao Xiulan called out.
The old lady opened her eyes and responded weakly, "Daughter, thank you, I'm just a little hungry, nothing major..."
Zhao Xiulan felt a little sympathetic when she saw the old lady like this.
People in this era are too hard, especially in the face of the three years of famine, food is scarce everywhere, and those who cannot get food are likely to starve to death.
Zhao Xiulan couldn't see a living being starved to death in front of her eyes, so she pretended to take out a meat bun from her pocket and handed it to the old lady.
"Auntie, take this bun and eat it!"
When the old lady saw the white bread handed over by Zhao Xiulan, it was like seeing a baby, with surprise in her eyes.
This is white bread! She doesn't know how precious white noodles are. The girl in front of her not only took out white bread, but also gave her some food?
Although her hair was dizzy from hunger at the moment, the old lady refused to face the white bread handed over by Zhao Xiulan, "Daughter, thank you, you have such a good heart, but it's too precious, I can't ask for it."
Zhao Xiulan didn't expect the old lady to have this "backbone". She thought she had a good character, not someone who likes to take advantage of others.
Look at this old lady again. Although she is dressed in shabby clothes, she is clean, and her temperament cannot be concealed. At a glance, you can tell that she is well-born and educated.
It's just that in this special era, many people and big families have been overthrown and defeated. Presumably the old lady was the same.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xiulan felt a little more sympathy for the old lady.
Zhao Xiulan continued to push the buns to the old lady, and said, "Auntie, don't be polite to me, since I gave it to you, you can take it, how can you walk and go back without eating?
This year, everyone is a little difficult, I just happened to meet, and by the way, do something within my power. As long as we are destined, don't say no to me anymore. "
The old lady swallowed her saliva. She was really hungry at the moment. She stared at the steamed bun for a few times. In the end, she could not refuse Zhao Xiulan's kindness. She took the steamed bun with trembling hands and took a bite.
After tasting the buns, the old lady realized that what Zhao Xiulan gave her was not ordinary buns, but meat buns.
