Travel through 1972 with a space mall

In summer evenings, the house is stuffy and hot. After work and dinner, many people will sit under the big trees in the village to enjoy the cool air and chat about home life.

Su Jiao was originally reluctant to go out and listen to their gossip. After all, she had just arrived and was not used to it yet, but she had no choice but to let the original owner leave such a trap for her.

But Su Jiao thought about it and decided to go out and fill the hole. Otherwise, if they passed it around, they might spread some ridiculous things. It would be too embarrassing.

Su Jiao guessed that everyone had finished dinner, so she took Ye Yao out to enjoy the shade. The old elm tree in the village usually has the most people enjoying the shade in summer, so Su Jiao planned to go there. It was still far away from the tree. Aunt Cuihua, the main gossip in the village, saw her sharply and shouted at her at the top of her lungs: "Oh, isn't this Jiaojiao? How could you let it go! You should take care of yourself at home after being so seriously injured!" "

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Jiao felt the feeling of being watched by everyone. Twenty or thirty pairs of eyes under the tree looked towards her.

Su Jiao recognized at a glance that the person who had just spoken was Aunt Cuihua, whom Su's mother had talked about gossiping with her.

This Aunt Cuihua is wherever there is gossip, she is one of the representatives of gossips in Xiangyang Village.

Su Jiao paused, took a deep breath, and took Ye Yao to the tree. She first sent her to play with other children, then looked at Aunt Cuihua with surprise and said, "Auntie's eyes are really good. You can recognize me at a glance even from such a distance. Why couldn't you see Brother Jiangang when he came out of Widow Li's house disheveled? Didn't you say that you have bad eyesight as you get older? I think your eyesight is very good. .”

Aunt Cuihua's original name was Wang Cuihua. Her husband was a second-rate man in the village. He was shot for committing crimes a few years ago when the strictest regulations were in place. She was left with her son Sun Jiangang to depend on each other.

Last year, Sun Jiangang broke shoes with Widow Li in the village. When he was leaving Widow Li's house, he was seen by the villagers. He was blocked at Widow Li's house and almost got caught.

Because the Sun family and Widow Li's family were neighbors, they were separated by an earthen wall. In the end, Sun Jiang just climbed over the wall and returned to his own home to escape.

Everyone in the village knew that Sun Jiangang and Widow Li had broken the shoes, but Aunt Cuihua refused to admit it and insisted that her son had been at home that day and had never been out. The villager had made a mistake.

She also said that she saw a man running out of the village after leaving Widow Li's house. The villagers asked who the man who ran away was and what he looked like. Wang Cuihua hesitated and said that she was old and had poor eyesight. Anyway, she couldn't see clearly. Even if someone refuses to admit it, the villagers can't do anything about it, and they won't catch him after all.

After hearing Su Jiao's words, Wang Cuihua felt as if someone had strangled her throat. She didn't say anything for a long time. After a while, she hesitated and said: "Why is Jiaojiao speaking so ugly now? I told you it was you before." Misunderstanding, my Jiangang is not that kind of person."

Tiezhu Niang, who was standing next to her, saw that Aunt Cuihua was a little reluctant to step off the stage, so she quickly helped: "From the Mingyuan family, Auntie knows that you were beaten by Mingyuan and is concerned about your health. You don't know a good heart."

Su Jiao rolled her eyes at Tiezhu Niang and thought to herself, you are the source of gossip and I haven't found you yet, but you have come to my door.

Immediately replied: "Tie Zhu Niang is really idle. She has nothing to do during the day and can't go to work. She listens to others and starts spreading rumors when she doesn't understand. You are just writing a playbook. I never heard that you have this ability."

Tiezhu Niang didn't expect that Su Jiao, who usually knew how to wallow in fear, would become so sharp-tongued, and said sarcastically: "I'm not talking nonsense. I heard the quarrel between you two at noon, and Ye Mingyuan hasn't gone to work in the afternoon. Look at the big bump on your head, Ye Mingyuan didn't hit it, it couldn't have been you yourself."

Su Jiao was speechless for a moment. She had to say that Tiezhu Niang had learned the truth.

Su Jiao understood. Tiezhu Niang only heard the noise and didn't hear the whole story at all. It was all about guessing.

Su Jiao raised her chin and imitated the original owner and said, "Today I had a few quarrels with my family, Mingyuan. Who of you can live your life without quarreling? Also, this wound on my head was not caused by him, but by me." I accidentally knocked it, if Mingyuan dared to hit me, my parents and brothers would still be able to spare him."

When everyone heard it, it made sense. Su Jiao was not a person who kept silent when she was wronged. Besides, the old Su family had been partial to their younger daughter since childhood, and the two brothers had also loved their sister since childhood. If Su Jiao really suffered in the Ye family, The entire Su family had already called at the door to express their grievances, and they would not be so peaceful.

Seeing everyone's reactions, Su Jiao knew that this incident in her family was over, so she stopped talking and sat aside to cool off for a while.

But at this moment she heard three or four gossips. For example, Ma Zhiqing, the educated youth in the village, seemed to be dating the captain's daughter; Wang Mazi and Widow Li seemed to be dating together; the girl from the old Li family in the next village was in love. Find out who eats commercial grain in a county and so on.

Su Jiao couldn't help but sigh that the gossip information network in rural areas was so powerful. It was like listening to storytelling, and she felt a little in love with eating melon.

After continuing to listen for a while, until Ye Yao became sleepy and stopped playing with her friends, and came back to look for her while rubbing her eyes, Su Jiao lovingly picked her up and said goodbye to everyone and went home.

Su Jiao, whose eyes were full of Ye Yao, didn't notice the people enjoying the shade under the tree who opened their mouths in surprise when they saw her picking up Ye Yao.

When Su Jiao returned home, Ye Yao had fallen asleep in her arms.

Ye Mingyuan had been at home and had not gone out. When he saw Su Jiao coming back holding Ye Yao who was sleeping, he quickly stepped forward to take it, turned around and walked towards the east room with Ye Yao in his arms.

Su Jiao stopped him, pointed at the West Room, and whispered to Ye Mingyuan to take Ye Yao back to the West Room to sleep.

Ye Mingyuan glanced at Su Jiao in surprise, but didn't say anything and turned back to the west room.

No wonder Ye Mingyuan was surprised. The original owner disliked Ye Yao. Ever since she married Ye Mingyuan, she had always let Ye Yao sleep in the east room by herself. She also asked Ye Yao to tell Ye Mingyuan that she wanted to sleep in the east room.

Although Ye Yao is afraid of sleeping by herself. But she didn't dare to go against Su Jiao's wishes, so she could only hide in the quilt and cry secretly every night.

The weather was too hot. Just holding Ye Yao for a while made Su Jiao sweat again. Su Jiao went to the east room and took a quick bath, then took out the ointment from the room and applied it again.

After finally cleaning up, Su Jiao returned to the west room with a wet towel and wiped Ye Yao's body.

Ye Mingyuan felt that he had been surprised too many times today by his wife's actions. He could feel that her wife seemed to like his sister more now.

Su Jiao looked at Ye Mingyuan who was looking at her in surprise and hesitated to speak, and said softly: "Yao Yao is your sister, and naturally she is also my sister. You don't have to be so surprised that I treat her well."

After Su Jiao finished speaking, she didn't care about Ye Mingyuan's reaction and lay down directly next to Ye Yao. This body had been in trouble for a day. She was really exhausted. She didn't care that there was a "strange man" on the kang. After a while, And fell asleep.

Ye Mingyuan stared blankly for a while, then realized that the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he lay down happily to sleep.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Su Jiao woke up around five o'clock. She was not used to the sudden change of place.

Su Jiao touched her forehead and found that most of the bump on her head had disappeared, and she could hardly feel the pain anymore. It seemed that the ointment was very effective, so Su Jiao quietly applied some more.

Looking at the older one and the younger one who were still sleeping next to her, Su Jiao sighed, thinking that Ye Mingyuan would have to go to work early in the morning, and it would definitely be uncomfortable to work on an empty stomach, so she got up and prepared to make breakfast.

Su Jiao took out the cornmeal and white flour from the noodle vat, reconciled and woke up.

Then I picked the peppers from my plot, washed them and cut them into pieces, grabbed a handful of dried eggplants and soaked them. I took a 500ML bottle of soybean oil from the space and put half of the bottle into my bottomed oil tank.

In the morning, Su Jiao planned to stir-fry eggplant with peppers, steam a pot of cornmeal buns, add the remaining egg pancakes from last night, and steam a chicken cake for Ye Yao.

Brother and sister Ye Mingyuan and Ye Yao were awakened by the smell of rice. Children are forgetful. After getting along with each other yesterday, Ye Yao was no longer so afraid of Su Jiao. She rubbed her eyes and wrinkled her little nose to smell the smell. Next to Su Jiao, he held the corner of her clothes and stood on tiptoes while looking at the pot milk and asked: "What did sister-in-law do? It smells so good."

When Su Jiao heard the voice, she lowered her head and looked at Ye Yao. Seeing her standing on tiptoe and staring at the stove, she couldn't help touching her sleeping little yellow hair in a funny way and said softly: "Yao Yao, let your brother help you wash up first. You’ll know when you know it.”

The little guy nodded, hugged Su Jiao's pants and rubbed them dependently.

"Daughter-in-law, does your head still hurt?" Ye Mingyuan walked to the kitchen and looked at Su Jiao who was bending down to talk to Ye Yao and asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's all gone." Su Jiao felt very touched when she heard that Ye Mingyuan cared about her as soon as she got up. She raised her head to let him see her forehead clearly.

Ye Mingyuan saw that the swelling had indeed subsided a lot, and nodded, "Daughter-in-law, remember to apply cold compresses more often at home today."

"I'm fine now. I plan to cut pigweed today." Su Jiao said.

"Daughter-in-law, you should rest at home. It won't take more than a few days to take good care of your health." Ye Mingyuan hurriedly advised.

Su Jiao was very satisfied with Ye Mingyuan's reaction and thought to herself, he is a man who knows how to care for his wife, not bad.

But Su Jiao felt that being at home was too boring, so she might as well go out for a walk. Cutting pigweed was not a physical job anyway, it was very easy. Moreover, she had cut pigweed when she was a child and lived with her grandmother, so she was very familiar with the road.

She said seriously: "I know my health, and there's nothing to do at home. I'll just go cut some pigweed so I won't be tired."

Ye Mingyuan looked at her with a firm attitude. He was afraid that she would be angry if she continued to speak, so he did not stop her.

After washing and sitting on the kang, Ye Mingyuan looked at the stir-fried vegetables, corn buns and chicken cakes in front of him and felt a little sore in his eyes. Now that his wife was finally going to live a good life with him, he finally had a complete family again.

He didn't expect that his wife would get up early to cook. In the past, he would get up by himself, make some corn mush and eat pickles.

It seems that what his wife said yesterday that she wanted to live a good life with him is true. This makes Ye Mingyuan very excited and feels that he has a head start in life. After all, what man doesn't want to be loved by his mother-in-law.

Ye Yao also happily ate steamed chicken cakes and egg pancakes, and began to feel that her sister-in-law was the best, completely forgetting how harshly Su Jiao had treated her before.
