Travel through 1972 with a space mall

In the blink of an eye, four or five days passed by.

This morning, Ye Mingyuan was busy in the kitchen, and Ye Yao went out wearing a rabbit skin hat to show off to her friends in the village.

On the kang in the west room, Su Jiao was looking at the soles of Sumuna's shoes boredly. There were no entertainment facilities in this era. Su Jiao couldn't go out recently, and she was almost bored.

Just when Su Jiao was yawning out of boredom, Wu Xiaoqin came to visit in a hurry with a sewing basket.

Seeing Wu Xiaoqin's face filled with gossip, Su Jiao instantly became energetic and quickly asked Wu Xiaoqin to get on the kang.

Su's mother has been spending most of her time at Ye's house with Su Jiao recently. She has no intention of inquiring about the gossip in the village. Ye Mingyuan is almost glued to the house, and she doesn't know anything about the outside world, so Su Jiao has been relying on Wu Xiaoqin recently. Occasionally he would come to visit her and tell her the village gossip to "extend his life."

"Jiaojiao, let me tell you, something big happened in the village just now." As soon as Wu Xiaoqin sat down on the kang, she hurriedly greeted Su's mother and immediately started sharing with Su Jiao.

"What happened?" Su Jiao was no longer sleepy and immediately asked eagerly.

Mother Su looked at the way Su Jiao's eyes lit up after hearing the gossip, but she didn't say anything. She listened to the two of them talking with a smile and continued to put the soles on her shoes.

"Widow Li and Mazi Wang from our village were caught breaking shoes at Widow Li's house." Seeing Su Jiao's anxious look, Wu Xiaoqin became even more eager to share.

"Isn't their matter known to everyone in the village? I heard it from my aunt in the village during the summer." Su Jiao was a little disappointed after hearing this, thinking it was nothing new.

Because Su Jiao accidentally bumped into them when she went to the back mountain to collect firewood some time ago. At that time, she thought that Widow Li and Wang Mazi were consensual, so Su Jiao didn't bother to care.

Su Jiao knew at that moment that these two would be bumped into by someone else sooner or later, and this came true.

"Oh, I haven't finished talking yet. The exciting part is at the back. Do you know who caught them breaking their shoes? It was Sun Jiangang." Wu Xiaoqin said with beaming eyebrows.

When Su Jiao heard the story and the sequel, she immediately became interested again. She picked up a piece of dried sweet potato from the plate on the kang and handed it to Wu Xiaoqin, asking her to eat and talk. She also took a piece and took a bite, eating and listening.

Dried sweet potatoes are snacks made by Su Mu and Ye Mingyuan for Su Jiao to eat when she is bored.

Making dried sweet potatoes is quite simple, but it takes time.

Wash the sweet potatoes first and cook them in a pot. After cooling, cut them into dry shapes or strips.

Then put the cut sweet potatoes on the pot lid and bake until the moisture in the sweet potatoes is baked out, and the sweet dried sweet potatoes are ready.

"I was drying radishes at home this morning. I got there late. It was already over when I got there. I heard that the three people had been taken away by the party secretary and the others. I heard from other people that Sun Jiangang went to deliver eggs to Widow Li. At that time, I bumped into Wang Mazi and Widow Li. Aren't the Sun family and Widow Li's family next to each other? Sun Tong just climbed over the wall quietly and went in. Wang Mazi couldn't hide at all. Then when Sun Jiangang saw it, he went crazy and followed Wang. Mazi started fighting, and Wang Mazi was no match for Sun Jiangang. The one who was beaten just put on his underpants and ran and screamed on the street, attracting all the people in the village, and everyone saw the excitement."

Wu Xiaoqin finished speaking in one breath before taking a bite of dried sweet potatoes, nodding her head and exclaiming that they tasted much better than boiled sweet potatoes.

"Aunt Cuihua is so sick right now. Sun Jiangang's reputation has been completely ruined, and it's even harder to find a wife." Su Jiao listened with interest and couldn't help but gloated.

Su Jiao thought, Aunt Cuihua had been talking nonsense about her family's affairs before. When she had just walked in, Tiezhu Niang and Aunt Cuihua were outside talking nonsense about Mingyuan beating her, but she still had a grudge.

"No, I heard a few days ago that Aunt Cuihua asked someone to help her find a girl. I heard that the girl was also very satisfied with her. The marriage is almost done. Now it is definitely going to blow up, and maybe Some of them may still be criticized," Wu Xiaoqin said.

"Ah? It's so serious. If Sun Jiangang bites him to death and refuses to admit it, it should be fine. After all, it's Wang Mazi and Widow Li who were blocked, and it has nothing to do with him."

When Su Jiao heard that it was so serious, she felt a little bit sorry, feeling that she shouldn't have been so gloating about the misfortune just now.

"Then who knows, I heard that the party secretary and the others are having a meeting to discuss it now. Everyone knew it before, but there was no evidence, and those good people couldn't be held accountable. At most, they just whispered a few words in private. But this time not It’s the same, it was directly seen by the big guys, those good people in the village won’t just let it go.”

Wu Xiaoqin also sighed, feeling a little emotional.

As they talked, the two felt that this topic was a bit heavy, so they started to change other topics to continue chatting, and soon the atmosphere became cheerful again.

Just when the two were chatting enthusiastically, there was a sound from the courtyard door, and then Su Jiao vaguely saw Ye Mingyuan coming out of the kitchen from the window to greet him.

After a while, Ye Mingyuan brought someone in, and it turned out that Meng Long was here.

Wu Xiaoqin saw that a guest was coming, so she quickly packed her things and said goodbye and went home.

When Su Jiao saw Meng Long, she immediately understood that this was something she had asked Meng Long to find out.

But thinking that Su's mother was still there, she didn't ask immediately.

When Mother Su saw Meng Long coming, she greeted him warmly, poured water and dried sweet potatoes.

Mother Su knew that the three of them must have something to say, so she turned around and went to the kitchen to make lunch.

When Meng Long saw that Su's mother had gone out, he whispered, "Sister-in-law. I have already found out everything you asked me to ask about."

Meng Long knew that since Su Jiao asked him to inquire about this matter, Su's mother must not know about it either, so he deliberately kept silent when he saw Su's mother there just now.

"Okay, stop being pretentious and tell me quickly." Ye Mingyuan urged immediately.

Meng Long let out a hey, no longer trying to show off, moved forward and whispered: "Then I'll talk about my sister-in-law's second uncle's job first. Director Yu from the tool factory has a good relationship with me. He told me The old lady of the Su family got this job for Uncle Su."

Su Jiao couldn't help but raise her eyebrows after hearing this, thinking to herself, her old lady is really capable.

Meng Long continued: "Deputy Director Sun of the second production department of the factory was saved by Mr. Su when he was young. Sister-in-law, do you know this?"

Su Jiao shook her head and said she had never heard of it.

"I heard that the old lady used this matter to blackmail Deputy Director Sun and asked him to find Uncle Su a job in the tool factory."

Meng Long couldn't go on talking about this. Thinking about Su Jiao's pregnancy, he was afraid to talk about it again, irritating Su Jiao.

"It's okay, just keep talking, I know what's going on." Su Jiao motioned to Meng Long to continue.

Meng Long turned to look at Ye Mingyuan again, and when he saw Ye Mingyuan nodded, he continued: "I heard that Mrs. Su went to Deputy Director Sun's house and made a big fuss. She also rolled around in the street and said that Deputy Director Sun was ungrateful. He was about to run into someone's door and die. In the end, Director Sun had no choice but to arrange a temporary job as a boiler burner."

"The old lady was not satisfied at the time and insisted on asking Director Sun to arrange a formal job. Director Sun said that he could not decide on the formal job, so Mrs. Su reluctantly accepted it."

Su Jiao was not surprised after hearing this. She cried, made trouble, and hanged herself. This was a common trick of old ladies, nothing unusual.

It's just that Su Jiao didn't expect that her grandfather, who died young, could still be related to the director of the tool factory, and she didn't know if Su's father knew about Director Sun.
