Travel through 1972 with a space mall

Because it was before the holiday, there were queues everywhere in the supply and marketing cooperative's non-staple food area. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon after Su Jiao bought all the things she wanted to buy.

Because she was worried that going to a state-owned hotel to eat would delay her time and miss the oxcart, Su Jiao took the time to take two meat buns from the Space Mall to deal with it.

Su Jiao thought that Ye Mingyuan hadn't finished work anyway, so she put the things bought by the supply and marketing cooperative into the mall space. She only took out a thick quilt weighing more than ten kilograms from the mall space and compressed it into a backpack to cover it, leaving space The cotton in it was exposed.

Fortunately, the backpack Su Jiao was carrying was relatively large, so the quilt could barely fit inside.

As expected, the people sitting on the bullock cart going back to the village asked about it when they saw it. The aunt sitting next to Su Jiao asked gossiping: "Daughter-in-law Mingyuan, what did you buy? The basket on your back is full of money."

Su Jiao was afraid that no one would ask, so she immediately replied: "Aunt, it's getting cold. It happens that a classmate I met when I was studying lives in the county. He said that he has some extra cotton stamps at home. My Mingyuan, Yaoyao and the others My cotton-padded clothes were old and no longer kept warm, so I had no choice but to shamelessly borrow some money from my classmates and buy a few kilograms of cotton to make them new cotton-padded clothes."

Some of the aunts nearby couldn't help but nod their heads after hearing this, feeling that Su Jiao was getting better and better at living her life, and she knew she felt sorry for her family. Of course, some people felt sour that Su Jiao was a prodigal, but in fact they were just jealous that no one would lend them cotton or cloth tickets.

It was past three o'clock in the afternoon when she returned to the village. Su Jiao returned home with a basket on her back. Sure enough, Ye Mingyuan hadn't finished work yet, and Ye Yao wasn't at home either. I don't know where she went to play with Goudan Yaya and the others.

Su Jiao walked to the west room and put the quilt on the kang, wiped the sweat from her face, then unpacked the cotton, found a big bag and packed it, and then returned the things she bought from the supply and marketing cooperative from the mall space. The rice, noodles, meat, eggs, brown sugar and milk powder for Ye Yao were taken out and put away in categories.

When she was tidying up in the kitchen, she looked at the corn porridge and fried beans on the shelf, and shook her head helplessly. What would the brother and sister eat when she was not at home.

It seems that Ye Mingyuan is really talented in cooking. After all, he has taken care of Ye Yao alone for several years before and there is no one else with this cooking skill.

From now on, she should cook the food at home, otherwise the food will be wasted. Just looking at the food Ye Mingyuan cooks makes people lose their appetite. Of course, she has been living alone for so many years and has always cooked by herself. She also enjoys cooking. process.

Su Jiao sighed and thought for a while, then took out 1 kilogram of braised pork from the mall space.

After packing up her own things, Su Jiao sorted out the things she bought for Su's father and mother, including 1 pound of pork belly, one each of peach cakes, snacks and assorted candies. There are many people in the Su family, so I got two kilograms of mooncakes. How could I miss mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival? I also got a little book to give to Dabao.

As for cloth and cotton, Su Jiao felt that she could try to make summer clothes, but she really couldn't try cotton clothes. After struggling for a long time, Su Jiao decided to take both cotton and cloth to her mother and let her Let her help do it. When she is free, she can go and help with sewing.

Su Jiao, who finally stopped worrying, wanted to sing loudly, "It's good to have a mother in the world." As expected, having parents who love her is the happiest thing in the world.

After Su Jiao finished her work, she looked at the time and saw that there was still more than an hour before the end of work. She took a few pieces of candy and went out to find Ye Yao. Su Jiao found Ye Yao under the old elm tree in the village. Several children were Ye Yao was playing house in the mud with her back to Su Jiao. Goudan, who was facing Su Jiao, spotted Su Jiao first and immediately shouted to Ye Yao: "Yao Yao, look, Aunt Su Jiao is back."

Ye Yao immediately turned around and realized that her sister-in-law was really back. She stopped playing. She immediately stood up and ran towards Su Jiao with a giggle, "Sister-in-law, you are back~"

Because of the supplement of milk powder, pork and eggs during this period, coupled with the fact that she can eat well every day, Xiaoye Yao has become whiter and gained some meat. She is no longer the dry little monkey she used to be. Now she is white and tender. A small dumpling that is tender and fragrant.

Su Jiao smiled and knelt down, caught the milk-scented dumplings that rushed towards her, straightened Ye Yao's messy hair, and said softly: "Sister-in-law is back, Yaoyao, do you want to follow the dog here?" Don’t let them continue playing, why don’t you go home with your sister-in-law.”

"I want to go home with my sister-in-law!" Ye Yao replied without hesitation.

Su Jiao stood up, took out the handkerchief and wiped Ye Yao's hands, then took out the assorted candies from her pocket, spread her palms in front of Ye Yao's eyes, and said, "Then give these candies to Goudan them, and then let’s go home, okay.”

Ye Yao naturally wouldn't refuse to give candy to her good friends. She picked up the candy with both hands and walked towards her friends.

"Goudan, Yaya, Ermao, this is the candy my sister-in-law bought for me, for you to eat." Ye Yao said excitedly, shaking the candy in her hand.

"Wow, what a beautiful candy, thank you Yaoyao." Goudan and Yaya said happily looking at the assorted candies Ye Yao gave them.

Er Mao also looked at the candy in his hand and said with envy: "Yao Yao, Aunt Su Jiao is so kind. She prepares delicious food for you and also goes to the county town to buy delicious candies for you. I also want a sister-in-law like this."

After hearing Er Mao's words, Ye Yao immediately puffed up her little chest proudly, proudly stretched her little arms and gestured: "Of course, my sister-in-law is the best sister-in-law in the village."

"Then let Aunt Su Jiao be our sister-in-law." Er Mao said excitedly as if he had come up with a good idea.

Goudan and Yaya immediately joined in: "Yes, yes, we also want Aunt Su Jiao to be our sister-in-law."

When Ye Yao heard this, she immediately quit. She crossed her waist and said angrily, "No, my sister-in-law can only be Yaoyao's sister-in-law. If you want a sister-in-law, go home and ask for it from your brother."

Su Jiao was amused listening to the children's childish words. They were so afraid of her before, but just a few days ago, they started rushing to make her their sister-in-law?

Seeing that the paintings of several little guys started to go off track, Su Jiao immediately stepped forward to interrupt them and said, "Yao Yao, have the candies been distributed? It's time for us to go home."

Su Jiao's words successfully interrupted their argument and diverted the attention of several little guys. Goudan Ermao and Yaya both thanked Su Jiao. "Thank you, Aunt Jiaojiao."

"You're welcome, as long as you like it." Su Jiao smiled and touched the little guys' heads.

The little guys smiled sweetly at Su Jiao.

Ye Yao said goodbye to her friends and took Su Jiao's hand to go home together, leaving Goudan Ermao and the others looking at their backs with envy.

Ermao and Goudan both remembered Ye Yao's childish saying, "If you want a sister-in-law, go home and ask your brother for it."

Because neither Goudan nor Ermao had an older brother, the little ones knew that only with an older brother could they have a sister-in-law, so they went home and made trouble asking their parents to give them a brother. They said they wanted Su Jiao to be their sister-in-law. It's a wild ride.

On the way home, Ye Yao happily talked to Su Jiao about the interesting things that happened that day, not knowing that her words would cause her friends to make a fuss at home.

While she was talking about interesting things, Ye Yao suddenly heard a gurgling sound from her stomach.

Ye Yao frowned and said pitifully: "Sister-in-law, I'm so hungry. My brother stir-fried the vegetables at noon. I didn't like it, and I wasn't even full."

Su Jiao suddenly thought of the plate of fried beans on the kitchen shelf at home. They were all black from the frying. Is it not bitter? She quickly comforted Ye Yao and said: "Sister-in-law bought braised pork in the county today. I will go home and eat meat later." Is the meat good?”

"Okay, let's go home and eat meat." Ye Yao immediately happily took Su Jiao's hand and ran home impatiently.

After returning home and washing her hands with Ye Yao, Su Jiao carried Ye Yao to the kang and turned to the kitchen to get the braised pork.

Ye Yao sat on the kang and immediately saw the little book and the tumbler on the kang cabinet. She ran over in surprise and picked up the tumbler. She looked expectantly at Su Jiao who came back with the bowl. Her big bright eyes seemed to be asking : "Is this for me?"

Su Jiao looked at Ye Yao's happy look and said with a smile: "Do you like it? Because Yaoyao is very good, the roly-poly and the little book are the rewards given to Yaoyao by my sister-in-law."

"I like it! I like it! Thank you sister-in-law, Yaoyao likes sister-in-law the most!" Ye Yao excitedly threw herself into Su Jiao's arms and said happily.

Because Ye Yao was too excited and suddenly rushed over, Su Jiao was unprepared and almost spilled the braised pork in her hand. Fortunately, Su Jiao was afraid that Ye Yao would eat too much and stopped eating at night, so she only put a few pieces in the bowl.

"As long as Yaoyao likes it. Yaoyao is hungry, please try the braised pork bought by sister-in-law." Seeing Ye Yao's happy look, Su Jiao put the bowl in her hand on the kang and picked up a piece of braised pork. The meat reached Ye Yao's mouth and said with a smile.

"It's delicious, the meat is so fragrant. My sister-in-law eats it too." Ye Yao opened her mouth to eat the meat, chewed it a few times, and said with bright eyes.

"Hmm~, it's delicious, fragrant but not greasy." Su Jiao also ate a piece after hearing this, and followed Ye Yao's example of shaking her head and praising.

The sister-in-law and sister-in-law were playing around with each other, and they finished eating quickly.

Su Jiao went to the kitchen to clear away the dishes and chopsticks, then returned to the house and looked at Ye Yao who was happily playing with the tumbler on the kang. She suddenly became childlike. Seeing that it was still early, she went to the kang to play with Ye Yao. The tumbler.
