Travel through 1972 with a space mall

It was already mid-afternoon when Ye Mingyuan returned home. Su Jiao had already returned home from cutting pigweed and was drying the mountain products.

"Daughter-in-law, I'm back." Ye Mingyuan shouted happily looking at Su Jiao who was busy in the yard.

Su Jiao saw Ye Mingyuan sweating profusely. She quickly wiped the sweat with Ye Mingyuan's handkerchief and asked distressedly: "Why is your head sweating profusely? Have you had lunch?"

"Daughter-in-law, I have eaten. Meng Long left me to eat at his house at noon. I didn't catch the bullock cart in the afternoon, so I walked back." Ye Mingyuan nodded with a silly smile and let Su Jiao wipe his sweat.

"Looking at how tired you are and how sweaty you are, you can't walk slower. Why are you in such a hurry..." Su Jiao said.

Ye Mingyuan was happy and didn't refute, and then mysteriously pulled Su Jiao into the west room. He didn't even bother to put down the backpack on his back, and said with a smile: "Daughter-in-law, do you know how much that wild ginseng is worth?"

Su Jiao stepped forward, untied Ye Mingyuan's backpack and put it on the ground, and guessed cooperatively: "Two hundred yuan?"

Ye Mingyuan stretched out a finger and said excitedly: "Daughter-in-law, it's worth more than a thousand yuan. We've made a fortune. Meng Long said it's a pity that some of the ginseng whiskers were broken off, otherwise it would be worth more."

Su Jiao was a little surprised when she heard that the ginseng dug by Ye Mingyuan was worth more than a thousand yuan. She didn't expect that the ginseng dug by Ye Mingyuan could be so valuable, but she suddenly thought that if her family had money in the future, she would be able to find more opportunities to get things from the space mall. My mood suddenly became even more beautiful.

Every time she was afraid of Ye Mingyuan's suspicion, she didn't dare to take too many things from the space mall. She was just thinking of finding a suitable excuse to take things from the space mall in the future, and now she didn't have to look for it.

"That's great. It's more than a thousand yuan. My Mingyuan family is really good at making so much money casually. Others don't have this ability." Su Jiao boasted happily, and then took the washbasin. In the kitchen, he scooped water for Ye Mingyuan to wash his face.

"Hehe. When the ginseng is sold, our family will build a brick house, and then we will make you new clothes and buy cream..." Ye Mingyuan finished washing his face, returned to the west room, took Su Jiao and handed it over He was wiping his face with a towel while excitedly listing the things he would do when he got rich.

Su Jiao thought, if she was so high-profile just after she got rich, her family would become a living target. They built a tiled house and made new clothes for her. Wasn't this clearly telling others that their family had made a fortune? Besides, My family's living conditions have improved recently, and there are a lot of envious people in the village, so it's better to keep a low profile.

But Su Jiao looked at Ye Mingyuan excitedly thinking about a better life in the future, and most of what he said was about buying her this and that. Su Jiao felt very happy, so she didn't say anything to dampen the mood, and kept smiling and nodding. , His man is so happy, let him have fun first.

"By the way, wife, this is the wedding gift Meng Long gave us." Ye Mingyuan carefully took out the small cloth bag containing money from his jacket and stuffed it into Su Jiao's hand.

Su Jiao opened the cloth bag and saw a few dimes and a Tuan Tui inside. Ye Mingyuan only brought a few scattered five yuan and a few bills when he went out. It was obvious that the Tu Tui was Meng Long's gift for their wedding.

Su Jiao raised her eyebrows and said, "So much? You haven't had any contact with me for such a long time, how can we collect this money?"

"It's okay, wife. Meng Long has this kind of personality. If I refuse, he will definitely be anxious with me. We can just walk more with him in the future." Ye Mingyuan explained with a smile.

"Okay, as long as you know it well." Su Jiao nodded and put the cloth bag containing the money on the kang cabinet in front of Ye Mingyuan.

Ye Mingyuan bent down again and took the things in the basket at his feet to the kang. Su Jiao closed the kang cabinet and turned around to see a pile of things piled on the kang.

There are quite a lot of things, including two packs of White Rabbit toffees, two cans of malted milk, and a box of Jingba items. This pile of stuff is worth dozens of dollars.

Su Jiao knew that White Rabbit toffee and malted milk powder were sold at the supply and marketing cooperative in the city, but the supply was small, so Su Jiao went there several times without encountering them. But that box of Jingba pieces is a specialty of the capital. It seems that the man in his family said that his friend's grandfather is in the capital. It is indeed true.

Seeing Su Jiao's surprised expression, Ye Mingyuan said sheepishly: "This is a return gift from Meng Long. I couldn't refuse it, so I took it back."

Ye Mingyuan then picked up the box of Beijing Eight Pieces and introduced: "Meng Long said these are the specialty snacks of the capital. They are very delicious. He brought them back when he returned to the capital a few days ago. He asked me to bring them back for you to try."

Su Jiao now finally understood why Ye Mingyuan didn't want to contact Meng Long before. Good guy, it's a bit unbearable for this wealthy friend to spend so much money. He always takes advantage of others, which makes him feel inferior to others.

Su Jiao shook her head amusedly: "I underestimated your friend's generosity."

The couple stared helplessly at the pile of things on the kang at the same time, then looked at each other and burst into laughter.

"Okay, these are your friends' thoughts. We just need to keep them in mind. We can always pay them back in the future." Su Jiao sighed and said.

Ye Mingyuan nodded and thought to himself, at worst, when the autumn harvest is over and the team has no work, he will find an opportunity to take his eldest brother Su, third brother Su, to the mountains to collect some pheasants and rabbits for Meng Long.

After Ye Mingyuan explained to Su Jiao, he consciously went to fetch water and chop firewood. When Brother Su and Brother Su got off work, Ye Mingyuan and the two of them would go to the mountains to pick red mountain reds, so now he took advantage of the time to catch up on the work at home. Finished.

Ye Mingyuan was chopping firewood. Ye Yao came back with a jump. Seeing Ye Mingyuan at home, she looked surprised and stepped forward to hug Ye Mingyuan's pants and coquettishly said, "Brother, you are back, have you brought it to me?" food."

Ye Mingyuan put the ax in his hand aside, wiped off the sawdust on his hand, smoothed down Ye Yao's messy hair, and said jokingly: "Little greedy cat, don't you dislike my brother's smell now?"

Ye Yao embarrassedly let go of Ye Mingyuan's pants, lowered her head and muttered in a low voice: "I didn't lie, my brother smelled bad yesterday."

Ye Mingyuan couldn't do anything about Ye Yao. He pinched Ye Yao's face angrily and said, "Your sister-in-law is in the west room."

When Ye Yao heard that Su Jiao was in the west room, she didn't care about her brother anymore and entered the room in a hurry, leaving only Ye Mingyuan's handsome back.

Seeing Ye Yao forgetting her brother now that she had a sister-in-law, Ye Mingyuan smiled helplessly and continued to chop wood.

"Sister-in-law, I'm hungry." The little guy started shouting before the door of the house was opened.

Su Jiao, who was cleaning up the kang cabinet, immediately laughed when she heard the shouting. Ye Yao is too lively now. She is no longer the little quail she was when she first came here. Listening to the shouting just now, she is full of energy.

The little guy opened the door and looked at Su Jiao eagerly, then touched his belly as a sign.

Su Jiao took out the can of sugar water that Wang Tiantian brought two days ago, put it on the kang, and said with a smile: "Which little greedy cat wants to eat the can of sugar water?"

The little guy's eyes lit up when he saw the can. He quickly ran two steps to the edge of the kang and raised his little hand, "Sister-in-law, I want to eat."

"Oh, it's my greedy cat Yaoyao who wants to eat it. Can my sister-in-law open it for you?" Su Jiao said with a smile, tapping the tip of Ye Yao's nose.

"Yeah, I'll eat with my brother and sister-in-law." Ye Yao nodded her little head and said.

"Yao Yao is such a good kid who knows how to share." Su Jiao looked at the little guy's sensible look and couldn't help but kiss his little face twice.

Ye Yao's eyes suddenly narrowed with joy, revealing her millet teeth.

Su Jiao opened the can and poured it into three bowls. Su Jiao handed one bowl to Ye Yao. Ye Yao didn't take it, but left "I'll call my brother back to eat the can" and walked to the yard. went.

After a while, Ye Yao dragged Ye Mingyuan into the house.

Ye Mingyuan said helplessly: "I even said I wouldn't eat, but the little guy insisted on dragging me into the house."

Before Su Jiao could say anything, Ye Yao thrust a bowl of canned food into Ye Mingyuan's hand and said fiercely: "Sister-in-law said that everyone in our family is equal and we must share."

When Su Jiao heard this, she knew that the old habit of men in his family had happened again. He wanted to leave all the delicious food to her and her sister, so she immediately helped her and said: "Yao Yao is right, stop being so stubborn and eat quickly." Well, if you don’t eat it, Yaoyao will be angry.”

After hearing Su Jiao's words, Ye Yao immediately cooperated with her hands on her hips and pouted.

Ye Mingyuan watched his wife and sister singing in harmony, smiled and compromised: "Okay, okay, let's eat together."

Su Jiao thought that it was time to talk about this, so she simply continued, "Our family will not be short of these foods in the future. You are unwilling to eat anything, and the problem of leaving us to eat needs to be corrected. We You don’t need to make such a sacrifice.”

Ye Mingyuan then remembered that his family would soon receive a windfall. If he worked hard in the future, their family would be better off, so he nodded with a smile and ate the can happily.

Su Jiao and Ye Yao also began to eat their portions with satisfaction.
