Travel through 1972 with a space mall

Su Jiao prepared the ointment for Chen Shuting and returned to the kitchen to continue chopping dumpling fillings and noodles. Ye Mingyuan came back when Su Jiao started making dumplings.

"Daughter-in-law, will our family eat white flour dumplings tonight?" Ye Mingyuan asked happily.

"Yes, tonight we not only eat white flour dumplings, but also dumplings with two kinds of fillings, leek and egg and mushroom and pork." Su Jiao said while wrapping the dumplings without raising her head.

"Then I'll move the firewood and prepare for the fire." Ye Mingyuan swallowed his saliva and said positively.

"Don't worry, we've just started wrapping, we still have to wait a while." Su Jiao said with a smile, looking at Ye Mingyuan's panic.

It is true that Su Jiao has never made white flour dumplings in the past few months since she came here. After all, she can't be too high-profile, so most of the white flour at home is mixed with cornmeal and sorghum noodles.

"Then I'll go to the mountains to collect some firewood. I'll light the fire when I get back without delay." After Ye Mingyuan finished speaking, he went to the yard to get the pole and rope.

Su Jiao thought of the snakes in the mountains and immediately said to Ye Mingyuan who had already walked to the yard: "Mingyuan, be careful when going to the back mountain. The weather is getting colder. The snakes in the mountains have been very active recently. They may be preparing for the winter. I came across one when I went to the back mountain today."

"What?! Wife, did you encounter a snake on the mountain today? Are you okay?" Ye Mingyuan threw down the support and rope in his hands and entered the house. He looked Su Jiao up and down, fearing that Su Jiao had been injured.

"I'm fine. Please keep your voice down and don't be surprised. What I encountered today was a pine flower snake. It's not poisonous. I was almost bitten. Shuting happened to see it and helped me pick the snake away." Su Jiao looked at Ye Mingyuan's fussy look and smiled.

"Shuting? Is he the kid who lives in the cowshed?" Ye Mingyuan looked up and down to confirm that Su Jiao was indeed fine, then he felt relieved and asked doubtfully.

"Yes, that's that kid. Despite his young age, that kid from Shuting is so mature and sensible that it makes people feel sad. Although I haven't confirmed the three bundles of firewood with him before, but they are still close to each other, they should be his thank you gifts for me. This time, fortunately, it was the little guy who helped me, so I was not bitten by a snake. And that little guy was very polite..." Su Jiao couldn't stop praising her when talking about Chen Shuting. Reveal appreciation.

When Ye Mingyuan heard Su Jiao praising Chen Shuting to the heavens, he suddenly became jealous and muttered in a low voice: "You have never praised me like this. What is there for a little kid to praise?"

"What? What are you talking about? Louder." Ye Mingyuan said the voice was too low, and Su Jiao didn't hear it clearly.

"I said you have never praised me so much. What's there to praise for a little kid?" Ye Mingyuan repeated aggrievedly.

Su Jiao suddenly didn't care about wrapping the dumplings. She laughed and laughed for a long time before she managed to hold back her laughter: "How old are you, why are you comparing yourself to a child?"

Seeing Su Jiao smiling like this, Ye Mingyuan didn't say anything, lowered his head and looked at his toes and sulked.

Su Jiao looked at Ye Mingyuan's childlike behavior and couldn't hold back her smile again. "Okay, Mingyuan, don't be angry. Come closer and I'll tell you something."

Ye Mingyuan lowered his head and said nothing, but he still approached Su Jiao with an upright tone.

Su Jiao looked at Ye Mingyuan's awkward look, smiled, raised her head, kissed Ye Mingyuan's face, and comforted: "Okay, don't feel wronged. No matter how good others are, they are not as good as my Mingyuan."

Ye Mingyuan was stunned for a moment, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Because this was the first time Su Jiao took the initiative to kiss him, Ye Mingyuan was so excited that he wanted to spin around in circles.

Su Jiao looked at Ye Mingyuan's unpromising look and felt that he was worthless. This man in his family was too coaxing, "Okay, if you don't go chop wood, I'll wrap up my dumplings."

"Hey! I'll go right away." Ye Mingyuan found the opportunity, kissed Su Jiao quickly, trotted to the yard, picked up the support rope and machete, carried the basket on his back, and walked towards the courtyard gate with both hands and feet.

Su Jiao looked at Ye Mingyuan's funny back, and then said: "Come back as soon as it gets dark, it's not safe in the mountains."

"Hey, I know." Ye Mingyuan responded happily.

"Yuanzi, what's so good about you? You're smiling so happily." Someone saw Ye Mingyuan smiling loudly on the road and couldn't help but ask.

"Isn't it a holiday today? Aren't you happy during the holiday?" Ye Mingyuan said casually looking for an excuse.

After saying that, without waiting for others to speak, they walked away hand in hand.

"Is it such a happy holiday? Everyone is so happy." Passers-by looked puzzled.

Ye Mingyuan walked to a corner and happened to meet Ye Yao and Dabao Goudan and several small bean buns playing games together. Ye Mingyuan came closer and said: "Yao Yao, your sister-in-law is cooking at home. Come home for dinner soon. Dabao wants Don’t eat it together.”

"Oh! Got it" Ye Yao responded happily.

"Uncle, I will go home to eat in a while. Grandma said that she will be making dumplings and eating mooncakes at home tonight." Dabao said happily.

"Your aunt is also making dumplings at home. If you want to eat, just go with Yaoyao. My uncle went to the back mountain to chop firewood." Ye Mingyuan touched Dabao's bald head and said with a smile.

"Yeah," Dabao nodded his head in response.

Ye Mingyuan said goodbye to a few little guys and came to the back mountain. Most of the dead branches near the village in the back mountain had been picked up by the villagers. Even Su Jiao didn't pick up much when she was collecting firewood and mountain goods recently.

It is very dangerous deep in the mountains. The further you go, the more snakes, insects, rats, ants and other large animals will appear.

Seeing that it was still early, Ye Mingyuan thought that even though he had come, he could not go back empty-handed. He only hesitated for a moment and started walking towards the deep mountains. He also thought in his mind that he should tell Su Jiao when he got back that he should not go up the mountain. , everyone has collected almost all the firewood outside, and it is too dangerous to go further inside.

Ye Mingyuan walked for a while and came to a place he had never been before. There were dead branches, dead leaves, and vines everywhere. Ye Mingyuan picked up a thick, long and strong branch and knocked it while walking. When you reach the vines, cut them with a machete.

The old saying is to scare the snake away, which is to describe Ye Mingyuan's current actions, making noise, so that the snakes, insects, rats and ants in the dark can hear and know that someone is coming, and scare them away so as not to be suddenly frightened, just like Su Jiao in the afternoon Yes, it suddenly breaks out and hurts someone.

No one should have been to this place. Ye Mingyuan picked up two large bundles of firewood without any effort, because the sky was gradually getting darker. When Ye Mingyuan was picking up firewood, he held the woodcutter tightly in his hand, always holding the firewood in his hand. Pay attention to the movement around you, and before picking up firewood in an area, knock it with a branch to ensure safety.
