Travel through 1972 with a space mall

Su Jiao didn't answer, she stretched out comfortably, reached out and quietly approached Ye Yao, and tickled her tickle, making the little guy giggle.

Ye Mingyuan heard the laughter from the west room in the kitchen and knew that Su Jiao had woken up, so he quickly opened the door and came in.

"Daughter-in-law, should we eat sweet potato porridge and salted eggs or steamed buns for breakfast?" Ye Mingyuan asked Su Jiao's opinion with a smile.

"Let's have sweet potato porridge." Su Jiao thought for a while and said.

Ye Mingyuan has been making breakfast at home recently. Under Su Jiao's guidance, although the breakfast is not that delicious, it is not cooked or mushy.

Ye Mingyuan is already good at making the simplest sweet potato porridge. Anyway, porridge will not taste bad as long as you add the right amount of time and water.

As for lunch and dinner, Su Jiao was responsible for cooking. Of course, she was only responsible for putting things in the pot and leaving them for a while, while Ye Mingyuan was responsible for washing the pot, cutting vegetables, and lighting the fire.

Su Jiao has been pregnant for more than three months. The early uncomfortable symptoms have disappeared, her appetite has begun to increase, and she can cook by herself.

So since Su's father and the others came back from working on the river, Su Jiao never asked Su's mother to take care of her again.

Su's mother had been working hard for a year and was just looking forward to resting in the winter to recuperate her body. Su Jiao really couldn't bear to see Su's mother running to her every day.

When Su Jiao told Su's mother, she was strongly opposed by Su's mother. Su Jiao was so talkative that she asked Ye Mingyuan to invite Dr. Li.

After the diagnosis, Dr. Li told Su’s mother that everything about Su Jiao was fine and she could do some moderate activities. It would be bad if she remained inactive. Su’s mother reluctantly agreed after seeing Su Jiao’s firm attitude.

But she was worried that she would come to see her every now and then. Whenever she came, she would make a bunch of steamed buns and dumplings for fear that Ye Mingyuan would not be able to take care of her and starve her baby.

The temperature outside the house is now around minus 10 degrees Celsius. The wrapped buns won’t spoil if you put them in the freezer outside. You can eat them for several days. When you want to eat them, you can just steam them in a pot. It’s very convenient.

Ye Mingyuan's eyes lit up when he heard Su Jiao talking about sweet potato porridge. He felt that this was Su Jiao's affirmation of his cooking skills, so he returned to the kitchen with his head held high and continued to work hard.

Su Jiao did not stay on the bed anymore. She and Ye Yao got up and washed up after putting on their clothes and folding the quilt.

Su Jiao was busy applying cream on Ye Yao when Ye Mingyuan came in with porridge and eggs.

"Mingyuan, how much soybean oil does our family share? How many cotton and cloth tickets are there?"

Su Jiao took a sip of the porridge. It was sweet and tasted good. She nodded with satisfaction and continued drinking. Then she remembered that Ye Mingyuan went to a meeting in the morning and asked.

"Our family divided five kilograms of soybean oil, and I put it in the east room. The standard for cloth coupons this year is four feet per person, and the standard for cotton coupons is one kilogram per person."

Ye Mingyuan, who had been paying attention to Su Jiao, felt so beautiful when he saw Su Jiao nodding.

Hearing Su Jiao talk about the tickets, he remembered that he had been busy cooking as soon as he came back. The tickets were still in his pocket. As he spoke, he quickly took them out of his pocket and put them in front of Su Jiao on the kang table.

"Let's see if it gets warmer and you go to the city. Use the ticket to buy some cotton and cloth. I'm too bored at home. I've almost learned how to do it when I watched my mother make clothes. You buy it and I'll study it at home. Make some vests and gloves." Su Jiao said as she put away the tickets on the table and put them in the drawer of the kang cabinet.

Each person is only given five feet of cloth a year, which is too little. Adult men can barely make summer clothes, but it is not enough to make a two-layer cotton-padded jacket. Their family can only make one with this small amount of cloth. Cotton vests and the like.

"Daughter-in-law, you have to keep your head down while making clothes. You will feel uncomfortable." Ye Mingyuan said worriedly when he heard Su Jiao making clothes.

"It's okay. I'll do it slowly. If I have something to do, it won't be so boring." Su Jiao poked the sweet potatoes in the bowl with her chopsticks and sighed.

Su Jiao felt that she was almost going to be bored. She finally understood why the fertility rate was so high in this era. With nothing to do in the winter, what else could the couple do other than rolling on the kang.

Of course, Su Jiao would not admit that she thought of this because she was pregnant and had not rolled on the kang with her family Ming Yuan for a long time, and she was a little greedy for her man's body.

"Okay, I'll buy it tomorrow." Ye Mingyuan saw Su Jiao sigh and nodded in compromise.

He peeled another egg for Su Jiao and put it in her bowl.

After breakfast, Ye Mingyuan went to the yard to clear the snow. Su Jiao played with Ye Yao's braids on the kang.

After half a year of cultivation, Ye Yao is no longer the little monkey with sparse yellow hair and not a few kilograms of meat.

In the early days, milk powder and malted milk supplements were very nutritious. Later, she also ate less pork and eggs. Ye Yao's hair turned black, her body gained weight, and her face was chubby. In addition, Su Jiao applied ice cream and clam oil every day. , The little face is also white, tender and delicate, and it is a qualified milk-flavored dumpling.

The little guy was very happy. Every time Su Jiao made a new pattern, Ye Yao would look at herself in the mirror for a while.

Around nine o'clock, Su's mother came excitedly again.

Seeing Mother Su getting on the kang with a grin on her face from the cold, Su Jiao quickly pulled the thin quilt covering her legs over Mother Su's legs.

She said helplessly: "Mom, it's such a cold day and it's still snowing outside. If you don't stay warm at home, why are you here again?"

Su's mother shuddered, took out a few tickets from her jacket pocket, and stuffed them into Su Jiao's hands.

"Mom came over to see you. Didn't you share the cotton tickets and cloth tickets today? Mom took your and your father's shares. Didn't you borrow someone else's tickets before you made clothes for us? Take them and return them. People.”

Su Jiao was stunned for a moment, and then she realized what Su's mother was talking about. She didn't expect that Su's mother would still remember the excuse she made casually.

At that time, Su Jiao couldn't tell her directly about the cloth and cotton used to make cotton-padded jackets for Su's father and Su's mother, so she just found an excuse. She had long forgotten it, but she didn't expect Su's mother to still remember it.

Su Jiao returned the ticket to Su's mother and said, "Mom, I have already returned it to her. She is from the city and has no shortage of cloth tickets, so I will pay for it."

"Just pay it back, then you can keep these tickets. There is not much cotton, so you can keep it to make cotton shoes, and keep the cloth tickets to make two new clothes for the summer. You will also be giving birth at that time, so you can wear new clothes. Festive.”

Su's mother was relieved when she heard that the ticket had been returned to her family, but she still insisted on giving the ticket to Su Jiao.

Su Jiao couldn't convince Su's mother, so she had no choice but to accept it in the end.

After seeing Su's mother off, Su Jiao handed the ticket to Ye Mingyuan who had finished sweeping the snow and entered the house, "Did mother just give this to you?"

"How can we ask for mother's ticket? I will send it back to mother?" Ye Mingyuan took the ticket and asked.

"There's no need to give it away. Mom won't accept it if you send it back. You can go to the city and use it together tomorrow. Then I'll make a cotton vest for my parents," Su Jiao said.

"Okay." Seeing that Su Jiao had a plan, Ye Mingyuan said nothing more and put away the tickets.

Lunch was also simple. Ye Mingyuan directly steamed a few steamed buns.

The buns were made by Su's mother two days ago. They were all big buns stuffed with cabbage and radish and eggs. There were still a dozen left that could be eaten for two days.

In the afternoon, Wu Xiaoqin came to visit the house, and Ye Mingyuan went to Li's house to go to the back mountain with Li Shoucai, saying that he wanted to see if he could catch rabbits, pheasants, etc.

Ye Mingyuan doesn't dare to go to the mountains now. It's cold, and it's hard for some carnivores in the mountains to survive. Their eyes will probably turn green from hunger. Anyone who goes to the mountains now is to deliver food.
