Travel through 1972 with a space mall

Su Jiao got up early that day, cooked rice porridge and boiled eggs. After breakfast, I put on my backpack and went to the entrance of the village to ride an ox cart.

Because the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and the autumn harvest will be in half a month, Su Jiao took leave and planned to go to the county today.

The holidays were coming soon, and she had to prepare to give gifts to Father Su and Mother Su. Su Jiao thought of finding an opportunity to get some meat and eggs from the mall space to replenish the health of Father Su, Mother Su and Ye Mingyuan, plus ten The weather will get cold soon after the autumn harvest in Yue. It is time for Ye Mingyuan and Ye Yao to prepare their cotton clothes. Su Jiao thought that she would have to go to the county town.

When they arrived at the entrance of the village, there were already two people in the cart. As soon as she got on the cart, a few more people came and the cart was full.

Because the holiday was coming soon, everyone had the same idea, and there were many people going to the county town, so Su Jiao deliberately got up earlier than usual to take the bus, but she didn't expect that there was someone earlier than her.

The bullock cart swayed for more than an hour, and Su Jiao's buttocks were numb. Finally, they arrived at the county seat. After making an appointment with the handlebar at the waiting point for the return trip, Su Jiao quickly found a place to disguise herself, dressing up as a A middle-aged woman in her thirties took her things and went to the black market.

After going through a series of normal black market procedures of paying the sentry and collecting passwords, the Su family carefully found a corner and squatted down.

This time she put egg noodles, rice, white noodles, and an old-fashioned three-piece bed set into the basket.

Because the things Su Jiao sells are all fine grains that are in high demand and the prices are right, they sell quickly. Only the three-piece set has never been taken seriously.

Su Jiao was not discouraged, and based on the principle of "everything comes, come here", she carefully changed a few inconspicuous positions in the black market, and quietly took a few rice and white noodles from the space.

Finally, when she was about to give up, someone asked about the price of Su Jiao's three-piece suit. The person who came was a chubby middle-aged lady who looked very lucky.

"How do you sell these sheets?" the aunt asked softly, pretending to be calm.

Just now, the aunt's eyes lit up obviously when she saw the three-piece suit in Su Jiao's backpack, and she was immediately noticed by the sharp-eyed Su Jiao.

Su Jiao immediately lowered her voice and said in a low voice: "Sister, if you have a cloth ticket, it's 28 yuan, if you don't have a cloth ticket, it's 35 yuan. I'll give you this affordable price. Look, this is from Haishi. The supply and marketing cooperative can No, not only is the quality good, but it’s also trendy. It’s very respectable whether it’s for gifts or for home use.”

The aunt nodded when she heard the price. This was indeed an affordable price on the black market. She looked at it carefully and touched the materials. After hesitating for a long time, she finally bought it. She said that her daughter was getting married soon and she wanted to buy it for his daughter. Make a dowry.

Su Jiao happily said congratulations and handed over the money.

Su Jiao was very satisfied with this trip to the black market. She earned more than 100 yuan in just money, as well as a pile of cloth tickets, candy tickets, shoe tickets and other vouchers. Su Jiao, who was in a happy mood, quickly packed her backpack and left the black market cautiously.

Su Jiao saw that it was still early, so she thought she would take this opportunity to visit Wang Tiantian. Su Jiao found a remote corner and put the dried wild vegetables and mushrooms she had prepared in the backpack into the basket, and took 2 pounds of egg noodles.

This gift was not light in this town. Su Jiao not only wanted to ease the relationship this time, but also wanted to see if Wang Tiantian was still the same Wang Tiantian and whether she was worthy of her relationship.

On the way to Wang Tiantian's house, she happened to pass by the supply and marketing cooperative. She saw many people queuing up to buy mooncakes at the supply and marketing cooperative. Su Jiao hesitated and then also queued up. After queuing for a long time, she finally reached Su Jiao. Su Jiao bought four. I put three kilograms of mooncakes secretly into the space, put one kilogram into the backpack, and bought a net bag to put the contents of the backpack into the net bag.

Su Jiao often came to Wang Tiantian's house when she was studying. She also stayed at Wang's house several times on her days off, so she was very familiar with walking to the entrance of the alley where Wang's house was. Wang's house was at the end of the alley, an ordinary building. The brick house with a small courtyard has a similar layout to the Ye family, with two bedrooms and a kitchen, but it is smaller than the Ye family's house.

The father of the Wang family had no sons, and only had two children, Wang Tiantian and her sister. The Wang family's sister Wang Yuanyuan had been married for several years, so the house at home was relatively adequate. Wang Tiantian lived alone in a house, otherwise there would be no room for Su Jiao. live.

Su Jiao walked to the door of Wang's house, put her backpack on the ground, walked up and knocked on the courtyard door twice, and shouted outside the door: "Is anyone home? Is Tiantian home?"

After waiting for a short while, an aunt who looked to be in her forties or fifties opened the door and came out. Su Jiao knew that this was Wang Tiantian's mother.

Because of the original owner's excellent character and various confusing operations, the Wang family's parents didn't like to see the original owner. They privately told Wang Tiantian many times not to let Wang Tiantian interact with the original owner. However, Wang Tiantian never listened to the advice and treated the original owner as a friend. The Wang family's parents were helpless about this.

When the Queen Mother saw that the visitor was Su Jiao, she was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect that Su Jiao would come to their house again after so long, and then she frowned.

Su Jiao knew that the Queen Mother didn't want to see her. When she saw the Queen Mother frowning, she immediately expressed her intention: "Aunt, I'm here to see Tiantian. I happened to come to the county for something this time. I haven't seen Tiantian for a long time, so I decided to Come to bother me."

When the Queen Mother heard Su Jiao's words, she looked at Su Jiao as if she didn't recognize her. She didn't expect that Su Jiao could be so polite. However, when she remembered what Su Jiao had done before, her expression instantly became cold and she said coldly: "Tiantian went to work and is not at home." After saying this, she looked like she was seeing off a guest.

Su Jiao knew that given the attitude of the Queen Mother, she would not be able to see Wang Tiantian today, but thinking that the original owner was living and eating in her home, she still took out the net bag containing dried vegetables, dried mushrooms, moon cakes and dried noodles from her backpack and handed it over to her. The Queen Mother said: "Okay, then don't disturb Auntie. I'll look for her when Tiantian is free another day. Thanks to you and Uncle Wang for taking care of her when I was studying. The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. This is a little thought from the younger generation. , don’t dislike it." After saying that, he said goodbye politely to the Queen Mother, turned around and left.

The Queen Mother held a bag of things in her hand and looked at Su Jiao's back in a daze, as if she couldn't figure out why Su Jiao had changed.

Su Jiao, who was walking on the road, had no time to know what the Queen Mother was thinking. She was in a hurry to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy goods and to go home.

Su Jiao thought that the gifts had been delivered anyway, and Wang Tiantian also knew which village her home was from. If Wang Tiantian wanted to continue to associate with her, he would naturally find time to come to her. If he didn't come to her, the gifts would be regarded as her replacement for the original owner. Let's repay the Wang family for taking care of me when I was studying in the county.

Su Jiao hurried to the supply and marketing cooperative to make purchases. First, she lined up to buy a few pieces of cotton cloth. At first, she only bought two pieces to make cotton-padded jackets for Ye Mingyuan and Ye Yao. However, Su Jiao hesitated and bought two more pieces because I had promised to make clothes for Father Su and Mother Su before, but I couldn't break my promise.

Ye Yao and Ye Mingyuan also each have two sets of cotton-padded clothes, one set is thinner and the other is thicker.

The thin cotton-padded jackets they wore were okay, but the thick cotton-padded jackets were in tatters, and the cotton in the clothes was all knotted, and they were no longer warm at all. They had been wearing them for who knows how many years.

So Su Jiao planned to make a new set of thick cotton-padded jackets for each of them, and then take out the old cotton from the old cotton-padded jackets and make a dozen new ones for them to wear. She also had to make new cotton-padded shoes.

In this era, it is already very luxurious to make a set of thick cotton-padded jackets for two people at once, not to mention Su's father and Su's mother, so Su Jiao did not dare to do more. Doing too much would be too ostentatious, and she was afraid that Make people jealous.

Two sets of Su Jiao's thick cotton coats are very new. Su's mother made them two years before she got married. There is no need to make new ones this year.

There is no need to buy any more cotton. A set of thick cotton coats requires about three or four kilograms of cotton. It is enough to make four sets in total and just take apart two old-fashioned quilts in the space.

Su Jiao bought another flashlight, three boxes of snacks, two packs of peach cakes, two pounds of assorted candies and a piece of pancake.

Thinking that Ye Mingyuan's razor had become broken and unusable a few days ago, he bought a new razor.

After looking around, I found that the supply and marketing cooperative also had little books and a roly-poly doll. Thinking that Ye Yao had not had many toys since she was a child, I bought two more little books and a roly-poly doll for Ye Yao.
