Chapter 9： do my best

Chapter 9 Going all out

When the little nurse heard that there was so much grain, it didn’t matter whether it was fine grain or coarse grain, she hurriedly spoke out

"Little sister, sell your grain to my sister! My sister will give you double the money! The cornmeal supply and Marketing Cooperative sells it for 12 cents a catty and my sister will give you 25 cents; Can you see it?"

Bai Xue knew that what the little nurse said was the price of buying food at the supply and marketing agency with food stamps. If there were no food stamps, buying food on the black market would definitely be a high price, and there was no market for the price.

But now she is in urgent need of money, so she has no choice but to agree to the little nurse first.

"Okay, then I'll bring the grain to my sister in a while! Sister, prepare the money!" Bai Xue said and turned around, but after the calculation, ten catties of cornmeal only cost two yuan and five catties, and ten catties of sorghum rice only cost five yuan. Not enough medical expenses! I don't know when the second uncle will send the money, so I might as well sell something to the little nurse! Just do it, she turned around and looked at the little nurse mysteriously:

"Sister, I still have a bottle of balm in my hand. It was sent by a relative from a big city. It's a good thing that we can't buy here. Would you buy it?"

In her supermarket, she sells that old brand of colorful body lotion, and a box costs more than ten yuan.

But these things are very precious in this era, and it is really hard to find them in small places.

When the little nurse heard that there was no reason to let it go, she immediately nodded and said yes.

"Sister, my balm is a rare and good thing. When relatives sent it, they said it. It's hard to buy. It can't be done without five yuan!" Bai Xueshi opened his mouth.

Five dollars is indeed expensive enough, on the premise that twenty catties of grain only cost seven dollars and five dollars.

The little nurse thought about the battle between man and nature for a while. She only got 28 yuan a month, which was 48 yuan a month, not as much as other doctors.

If she took out five yuan to buy balm, there would not be much left for this month’s salary. It’s okay to buy food, but if she spent so much money on balm, her mother would scold her to death, and maybe even beat her.

The name of this little nurse is Chen Qiyue. She is 20 years old this year. She is not married yet and lives with her parents. Her mother has to take care of her monthly salary. On her body, she took out so much money all at once because she was paid today, and she hadn't had time to hand it over to her mother.

"Sister, if you don't buy it, I'll ask someone else. I haven't used my balm once!" Seeing Chen Qiyue's hesitation, Bai Xue immediately added something.

"Buy! I'll buy! You bring everything here, and I'll prepare the money for you!" Chen Qiyue made up her mind.

"Okay, I'll go get things now!" Bai Xue turned around and ran away after speaking.

She has to hurry up and try to get her dad to get things done before he comes out of the operating room. As for Uncle Quanzi who went to the cafeteria to find hot water, she can't care about it now. He should go back to the door of the operating room and wait when he finds hot water!

Bai Xue ran out of the health center in one breath, looked left and right for a while, saw a small alley opposite, and ran over quickly, it was freezing cold, and not many people came out to walk around, she entered the alley and walked for a while, hiding in the After reaching a corner, the wall began to dump things.

Cornmeal and sorghum rice are sold loose in large wooden barrels, but can plastic bags be used in this era? She didn't dare to take risks, so she found a small cloth bag for down jackets and packed the rice noodles. A small cloth bag can only hold five catties. She packed four bags, went to the cosmetics area to get the balm, and checked the box. Is there anything on it that cannot appear in this era, and I carefully check that there is no problem before taking it out.

Just for a moment, her body that had just recovered from the cold began to shiver again.

Hurry up and run back to the health center with her things in her arms. The old man at the door was still sitting there, seeing Bai Xue running out, he came back with his things in his arms, only glanced at it, then turned his eyes away and ignored him.

She just ran to the cashier smoothly, and there was no one to pay at this time, so she easily gave the things to Chen Qiyue.

"Sister, look at the things, right! The weight must be fine!" Bai Xue said and put all four bags of grain in Chen Qiyue's hands.

"That's right, that's right!" Chen Qiyue carefully took all the food in and hid it in her cabinet before coming out. Afraid of being seen.

"Here you are! This is balm!" Bai Xue handed her the balm again.

Chen Qiyue opened the box and saw that it was unused. She leaned over and smelled it, and a scent hit her face. She liked it very much. It was much more fragrant than that cream.

"Okay, okay! Sister, I'll give you the money right now!" As she spoke, she took out twelve yuan and fifty cents from her pocket and handed it to Bai Xue.

"Sister, I'll pay another ten yuan for the medicine, just give me two yuan and five! Don't forget to add the ten yuan to Bai Daliang's name!" After speaking, he took the two coins from Chen Qiyue's hand fifty cents.

"Okay! By the way, my name is Chen Qiyue! Don't forget me if you have any good things in the future!" The little nurse Chen Qiyue didn't forget to report her name when she got the good things, just waiting for her to have something good in the future Things can be brought over and sold to her.

She likes this balm so much, it's worth being scolded by her mother for it.

"Okay! My name is Bai Ruxue! I will send you good things in the future!" Bai Xue smiled mysteriously, said her name to express her sincerity, then turned and left.

She has been delayed for a long time, and her father is probably coming out soon.

Sure enough, she went to the operating room and was told that her father had been sent back to the ward.

It was only a matter of sewing a few stitches, so it must be fast!

When she found the ward, her father had already hung up the bottle, and Uncle Quanzi was with him.

"Dad, Uncle Quanzi!" Bai Xue called the two of them and walked in. There were four beds in the ward, but the other three beds were empty.

"Xiaoxue, you are here. Where have you been? Your dad has been urging me to go out to find you. I was just about to go out!" Hearing Bai Xue's voice, An Quanzi looked up, saw her come back, and said quickly.

"I went to pay the fee, but I couldn't find it for a while, so I wasted some time!" Bai Xue persuaded the two people with an embarrassed look.

She walked over and looked at the pale Bai Daliang, "Dad, is it better?"

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore! Xiaoxue, Uncle Quanzi brought you hot water, drink a few sips to keep warm!" Bai Daliang never forgot to care about his daughter's health.

"Okay! You have a good rest, Dad! I'll buy you food later!" Bai Xue took a few sips of hot water from the enamel cup on the table beside the bed.

Originally, she was a bit of a clean freak and absolutely didn't need other people's things, but in this era, those things are not important anymore, and not starving to death is the kingly way.

"Xiaoxue, can you accompany your dad by yourself? Uncle has to go back to return the ox cart on the team. This ox is our team's treasure, and it's hard to explain why it's sick!" An Quanzi waited for her to drink a few sips of water and said.

"It's okay uncle, I'm fine by myself! But don't leave yet! I'm going to buy food, and you can go after eating!" Bai Xue turned around quickly and was about to go out.
