Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

After a while, a plate of fragrant fried eggs was brought to Liu Haizhong. Seeing that there were dishes, Liu Haizhong poured another glass of wine and continued drinking.

The second aunt was watching from the side, feeling anxious! For the sake of her son, she could only bite the bullet and speak.

"Boss, how about you go..."

"What are you going to do? Tell me!"

Liu Haizhong was already feeling upset, and when he heard the second aunt hesitating, he became even more angry.

"Don't be angry if I tell you. If you think it's okay, just listen to it. If you think it's not okay, just pretend I didn't say anything."

The second aunt first got a shot of vaccination to prevent her bangs from suddenly rising and hurting people.

"I've seen other people who have almost anything go to the black market, and nothing has happened. Why don't we go there too?"

After the second aunt finished speaking, she looked at Liu Haizhong cautiously, and was relieved to see that Liu Haizhong was still drinking.

Liu Haizhong was also considering what his wife said at this time. His son had finally been admitted to a technical secondary school. If this matter was not handled well, it would be somewhat unacceptable, not to mention that there was the Sun family's example.

We drank a lot of wine tonight, and maybe it was the alcohol that made us braver, Liu Haizhong gritted his teeth and made the decision.

"Alright! I'll ask Yan Bugui to leave the door open tonight and go out for a walk. You better keep your mouth shut."

"Hey! Just listen to the boss. Don't worry, I promise no one will know."

The second aunt said happily.

……

In the middle of the night, a dark shadow flashed by and moved from the backyard of the courtyard to the front yard. When the dark shadow came to the front door, he saw that the door was not locked, and he felt relieved.

The black shadow gently opened the courtyard door, waited for the person to come out, then gently closed the door, turned and plunged into the night, and slowly the person disappeared.

In the dark night, the black shadow staggered all the way to a small black market nearby. When it arrived at the black market, some faint lights appeared.

If you look closely with the help of light, who else could this person be but Liu Haizhong? Even though Liu Haizhong's face is covered at the moment, his unique figure undoubtedly exposes him.

"Buy or sell?" asked the black market staff at the door.

"Buy!" Liu Haizhong replied.

"If you want to buy it, pay 1 cents and don't cause any trouble when you go in."

"Hey!"

After paying the money, Liu Haizhong successfully entered the black market. As a novice who came here for the first time, Liu Haizhong didn't know who to look for, so he could only wander around to see if he could meet someone selling tickets.

Liu Haizhong, who was spinning around, soon attracted the attention of the black market personnel. When he was about to turn for the third time, the black market personnel came over.

"You've been wandering around here for quite some time. What do you want to buy?"

"Who are you……."

Liu Haizhong asked doubtfully.

"Don't worry about what I do. Just tell me what you want to buy. I know a lot here and can give you some pointers."

"I want to buy some tickets. Can you tell me where I can buy them?"

Liu Haizhong didn't want to wander around anymore. Now that someone knew about it, it would be easier for him.

"If you had told me earlier, I would have had the tickets. What kind of tickets do you want?"

When he heard that there were tickets, Liu Haizhong felt that he had finally found the organization and no longer had to wander around.

"I need meat coupons, grain coupons, wine coupons, vegetable coupons... Do you have all of these?"

Liu Haizhong took out several kinds of tickets at once, but this was the business of the black market people, so they just picked them up casually, took out a stack of tickets and handed them over.

"Take your time to choose! We'll settle the bill when you're done."

Liu Haizhong didn't expect that the problem he had been thinking about and couldn't solve was as simple as drinking water to others. He didn't care about it anymore and picked it up immediately.

After Liu Haizhong finished picking the tickets, the black market staff counted them and then said.

"Okay, the total is a little over 28 yuan, just give me 28!"

"Yes! Okay, I'll take the money right away."

After paying the money, the transaction between the two was completed. Liu Haizhong carefully put the ticket into his shirt pocket and prepared to go home.

"Next time you need a ticket, just come and see me. My name is Daozi. Just ask at the door."

"Okay, I see."

After saying that, Liu Haizhong turned around and prepared to leave. At this moment, someone suddenly shouted at the entrance of the black market.

"Lei Zi is coming, Lei Zi is coming, everyone run!"

Hearing the shouting, the entire black market was in chaos. Some people didn't even want the things they were selling and turned around and ran away, fearing that this man called Lei Zi would eat them.

Liu Haizhong just stood there stupidly, at a loss as to what to do!

The knife next to him was fine, and he also gave a reminder.

"What are you standing there for? The police are coming, run!"

Liu Haizhong then realized that he was in big trouble, so he turned around and ran in the opposite direction.

"This way and that way is a dead end. If you run over there, you will die!"

Daozi threw down the last words and ran very far away. He had done his best.

Liu Haizhong then followed Daozi's footsteps and disappeared into the night.

I didn't know where this was. There were alleys everywhere. From time to time, flashlights were flashing everywhere, and I could hear people screaming as they were being caught.

Liu Haizhong was very tired, very tired! His entire lungs felt like they were on fire, but he didn't dare stop to rest. As soon as he heard the sound, he ran.

Slowly, after an unknown amount of time, there was no more movement in the depths of the alley. Liu Haizhong knew that he might have passed this hurdle tonight, but he did not dare to leave. Instead, he found a step and sat down.

They sat there until dawn, when Liu Haizhong finally walked out from the depths of the alley.

After exiting the alley and figuring out the direction, I found out that it was quite far from the courtyard. No wonder I was so tired from running last night. However, hard work always pays off, and it would be a shame if I didn't catch it.

"hey-hey!"

A hint of pride appeared in his fringe, and he strode towards the courtyard with his head held high.

……

At the gate of the courtyard, the second aunt was moving back and forth, anxiously waiting for her husband to return, while secretly blaming herself in her heart.

"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have let him go. What should I do now?"

"Auntie, what are you doing here so early in the morning?"

"Oh! His uncle! Our old Liu went out early in the morning for something. I'll wait for him."

After hearing this, Yan Bugui's heart skipped a beat. "Is something wrong with Old Liu?"

What is Liu Haizhong doing outside? He is a well-connected man! He was the one who left the door open last night. I have to be careful in the future and not follow in Liu Haizhong's footsteps.

At this time, Yan Bugui was imagining the tragic ending of Liu Haizhong, and did not notice that the anxious look on the face of the second aunt next to him had been replaced by a look of secret joy.

Because the second aunt had already seen a familiar figure walking from a distance, she didn't think too much and hurried to meet him.

"Boss, you're back. Are you okay? I, I..."

The second aunt choked up before she could finish her words.

"Okay, it's alright! Don't cry, there are people at the gate! Don't let them laugh at you."

"Uh-huh!"

The second aunt nodded in response.

"Hey! Lao Liu, are you okay?"

At the gate, seeing Liu Haizhong coming back, Yan Bugui asked in surprise.

"What could possibly happen to me? I got up early today and went to exercise. I just got back."

Yan Bugui thought to himself, "I don't trust you! You must have been hiding somewhere and just came out!"

After a quick greeting, Liu Haizhong and his wife went to the backyard. He still had to go back to wash up and eat! Otherwise, he would be late for work, so how could he have time to chat with this stingy old man?

Seeing that everyone had left, Yan Bugui could no longer ask any more questions and could only return home disappointed.

But Yan Bugui always had a question in his mind.

What did Liu Haizhong experience that night?
