Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

In the countryside in 76, those whose houses still had lights on after dark were mostly wealthy families.

At that time, most rural areas had no electricity, and even lighting a kerosene lamp was a luxury.

After finishing dinner early, everyone returned to their own rooms.

Lin Qingyan closed the doors and windows, locked the door, checked the time, it was past six o'clock, and slipped into the space.

She hasn’t had much personal space lately, and she’s very curious about the world decades later that she’s never been to.

She picked up the backpack she had brought into the space and picked some tomatoes and cucumbers from the yard.

I also put some vegetables and peppers in the backpack, filling the entire basket, and took it to the modern world to see if I could replace some things.

Lin Qingyan carried the backpack on her back, put her hands on the door of the front yard, and pushed hard. There was a wave of attraction, followed by a dizzy feeling.

Lin Qingyan closed her eyes subconsciously, and when she opened them, she found herself in the same house again. The walls were still covered with New Year pictures from different eras, and there were messy bottles on the floor.

Looking at the messy house, Lin Qingyan felt a little uncomfortable. If she had to appear in this house every time, she should clean it up a bit.

He looked around and saw something like a broom in the corner. He found a black bag, picked up the bottle, put it in the bag, put it in the corner, then picked up the broom and swept the dusty floor clean.

After spending half an hour tidying up the house, it now looks much cleaner.

I didn't dare clean the weeds in the yard outside the house too thoroughly. I didn't know who the owner of this house was, and it would be bad if I was discovered.

She put on the backpack and went out through the door near the back mountain. Last time she discovered that there was a door behind the yard that led directly to the back mountain.

Just as I went out and was about to go down the mountain, I saw twinkling stars at the foot of the mountain, red, green, yellow, of all kinds, in rows and pieces. It was very shocking, much more shocking than the last time I came here during the day.

Lin Qingyan walked quickly towards the foot of the mountain carrying a backpack.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I arrived at the street where the agency was located last time. This time the street was much busier than the last time.

People were coming and going, some of them were holding something that looked like a cup with a round tube stuck in it, and they were sucking.

Some people were walking with their heads down while holding their cell phones, some were walking and chatting in groups of three or four, and the shops on the street were also brightly lit.

Lin Qingyan looked at all this curiously. Before she died in her previous life,

The country has opened up business to self-employed individuals, and they can do business openly. My brother told me it was very lively, but at that time she could only lie in bed and didn't see it with her own eyes.

She touched the backpack on her back and looked at the people coming and going, but she couldn't see any place to buy vegetables.

"Sister, where can I buy groceries here?"

Lin Qingyan walked a long way and looked around the street for a long time. She had no other choice but to ask a young mother with a several-year-old child.

"Little girl, do you want to buy some food?"

The young mother, named Zhou Limei, looked at the young girl in front of her with surprise.

She was wearing a blue double-breasted top, dark coarse cloth pants, a pair of black cloth shoes, and two big braids. The girl was very beautiful, with clear eyes, but her clothes were very retro.

"Yes, sister, I want to sell vegetables."

Lin Qingyan also felt that her attire was out of tune with the people here. There were many girls on the street wearing short skirts and shorts, which were really short.

If they were there, they might be arrested as hooligans. But people here did not find their clothes strange, but many people looked at them.

She knew that the way she dressed was out of place in this world.

"Are you selling vegetables? In the backpack?" Zhou Limei grabbed the child who wanted to run away and looked at the backpack.

Lin Qingyan quickly took the backpack off her back and placed it on the ground. There were vegetables on top of the basket.

"Are these grown by your family?" Zhou Limei asked with interest as she looked at the fresh vegetables in the basket.

"Yes, I grew this myself. I can't finish it all, so I sell some."

Lin Qingyan looked at the older sister in front of her who might be her first customer and was very enthusiastic.

"Little sister, you grow vegetables yourself? You can grow vegetables?"

Zhou Limei looked at Lin Qingyan in surprise. She had a young face and looked very young, about seventeen or eighteen years old.

"Yes, we grow our own vegetables and rarely buy them."

Lin Qingyan thought that she was not cheating, she just rarely bought it because it was not sold on a daily basis. Except for the supply and marketing cooperatives, private individuals were not allowed to buy and sell it, except of course on the black market.

"Little sister, you're awesome!" Zhou Limei praised sincerely. Nowadays, most of the people who own fields and grow vegetables are elderly people, and there are very few young people who grow their own vegetables, especially children.

"Only greens? Anything else?"

"Mom, I want to go to the supermarket to buy Ultraman."

The child Zhou Limei brought with her was about six or seven years old. He was not interested in the vegetables at all and pulled her hand to leave.

"Tongtong, wait for mom for a moment. This sister's dishes look delicious. Mom will buy some and make delicious food for you, okay?"

Lin Qingyan's heart softened when she looked at the chubby, pink and tender little face in front of her. She quickly took the vegetables aside, took out tomatoes and cucumbers from the backpack and handed them to the child.

"Little boy, the tomatoes and cucumbers that I grow are delicious. Here, I'll give you some to try today to see if they taste good."

The child named Tongtong looked at the fruit handed to her, did not take it, and looked at her mother.

"Little girl, don't give it to her. She's very picky. She only eats some tomatoes and cucumbers except those grown by her grandmother in her hometown. She won't eat anything else you buy."

"Sister, you can give it a try. I grew this myself. It's very clean and can be eaten directly."

Lin Qingyan picked up a tomato and took a bite, and red juice flowed out.

"Mom, I want to eat it." Tongtong looked at the tomato her sister had bitten and felt it looked delicious. She really wanted to take a bite.

Zhou Limei looked at her daughter who suddenly shouted for tomatoes for some reason, took out her wallet from her bag, took out 5 yuan and handed it to the girl in front of her.

"5 yuan, can I buy a cucumber and a tomato first? I want to try them, and if they taste good, I'll buy some more."

Zhou Limei thinks that if a tomato or a cucumber costs about 1 yuan in the supermarket,

But those were grown in a greenhouse. If these vegetables were really grown by herself as the little girl said, and were organic vegetables, then the money I gave would not be enough.

Lin Qingyan was shocked when the 5 yuan was handed to her. A tomato and a cucumber cost 5 yuan. It was too outrageous.

Modern money is so worthless.

"Sister, there's no need for so much." Lin Qingyan was so excited that she was incoherent.
