After traveling through the book, I realized my wish in my previous life
Chapter 8: Changing Dishes
In the morning, Shen Xiaoxia also got up early.
There were no mobile phones to play with in this era, and if I wasn’t busy with other things, I would basically go to bed shortly after dinner.
I've been sleeping in a large dormitory these days. Even if there is space, there are a lot of things to pass the time in the space that I can't use.
By six o'clock in the morning, I had slept for almost eight or nine hours, which was enough sleep.
Shen Xiaoxia felt that this kind of creature had a good schedule, going to bed early and getting up early, which was good for the body, unlike modern times where people stayed up late playing with their mobile phones.
I can't sleep at night and can't get up in the morning.
For breakfast, Shen Xiaoxia took a meat bun and a vegetable bun from the space and ate them, then went to the room and pasted a lot of newspapers on the wall with the kang.
This will make it cleaner and prevent a lot of dust from falling on the bed and quilt. I also wiped the kang, cabinets and tables several times.
In the morning, Shen Xiaoxia took half a pound of brown sugar and went to a house not far from the Youth League Home.
Seeing that the courtyard door was open, Shen Xiaoxia walked in and stood in the yard and shouted, "Is anyone home?"
Hearing someone shouting, an aunt came out and asked, "Who are you? What's going on?"
Shen Xiaoxia: "I'm a new educated youth. My name is Shen Xiaoxia. Auntie, I want to come to your house to exchange some vegetables. Is that okay?"
"Oh, this is the educated youth Xiao Shen. What do you mean by exchange? Come on, auntie will take you to the vegetable garden in the backyard. Just pick whatever you want to eat," the auntie said enthusiastically.
"Auntie, this is some brown sugar, please accept it."
"Brown sugar." If it was something else, the aunt might not accept it. But as for brown sugar, her daughter-in-law is about to give birth, and it's just right for her to drink during the confinement period. If you want to buy brown sugar, you not only need money but also a ticket. You can't buy it with money.
"Xiao Shen, educated youth, I really need this brown sugar. My daughter-in-law is about to give birth, and this brown sugar is just right for her to drink during her confinement.
So, Xiao Shen, the educated youth, for the next period of time, if you want to eat vegetables, just come to my garden and pick them. You can pick as many as you want," the aunt greeted Shen Xiaoxia warmly.
Shen Xiaoxia did not refuse. She had just arrived, and even if there were vegetables in the space, she had no way of explaining where they came from.
During this period, she really needed to find someone to replace the vegetables. Since this aunt said so, she would come to pick some every few days and mix them with the vegetables prepared in her own space.
When her daughter-in-law gives birth later, she will send some brown sugar. She won’t let anyone suffer a loss. Farmers have a hard time too.
Although Shen Xiaoxia is not a wealthy person, a good person, or a saint, she doesn't mind helping the other party a little in such a mutually beneficial situation.
Shen Xiaoxia said, "Thank you, Auntie. I won't be polite with you. Later on, I also plan to cultivate some land behind the Youth League House to grow vegetables.
Auntie, if you have seeds, can I exchange them with you for money or something else?"
"Yes, it's April now. You can plant some cabbage and carrots. I have seeds at home. You can just come and get them when you want to plant them."
Shen Xiaoxia took out a handful of White Rabbit candies from her pocket, actually from the space, and stuffed them into her aunt's hand. "Thank you, auntie. These candies will sweeten the mouths of your grandchildren."
The aunt didn't bother to be polite with Shen Xiaoxia and accepted it with a smile.
While chatting with my aunt, I learned that everyone calls her Aunt Guixiang.
After marrying into this family, she gave birth to three sons and two daughters. The three sons and the eldest daughter are all married. There are also many grandchildren. The youngest daughter is still at home.
I picked some cabbages and peppers from Aunt Guixiang's vegetable garden.
Aunt Guixiang gave Shen Xiaoxia a few stored radishes and some dried vegetables. Shen Xiaoxia accepted them with a smile and carried them back to the Youth League Home.
On the way back, I met Han Zhuxin who was also cleaning the house. After seeing the vegetables that Shen Xiaoxia had brought, she asked where they came from.
Shen Xiaoxia said that she had exchanged it from her aunt's house in the village. Han Zhuxin nodded and said that she was also going to go around the village to see if there was anyone who could exchange some vegetables for her.
Shen Xiaoxia reminded her to bring some things with her, then returned to her room and continued to organize her luggage.
At noon, Shen Xiaoxia soaked some dried mushrooms given by Aunt Guixiang, cut some bacon prepared by Shen's mother, fried some green peppers, bacon and mushrooms, and then cooked a bowl of rice to eat.
I continued to clean the room in the afternoon, took all the clothes out of the packages, folded them and put them in the closet.
On the locker, he took out a can of malted milk that he had obtained from signing in, and then took out five pounds of brown sugar, ten apples, and five pears and put them on the top shelf of the locker. He also took out five pounds of rice, five pounds of flour, twenty eggs, and two packs of noodles and put them on the bottom shelf of the locker.
Shen's mother also packed two jars of pickles for Shen Xiaoxia, and Shen Xiaoxia took them out and put them in the storage cabinet.
After closing the locker door, Shen Xiaoxia did not lock it. She could just lock the room door when she went out.
In the afternoon, I went to a fellow villager's house in the village and spent one dollar to buy two brooms, a dustpan, three bamboo baskets, and a straw mat to put on the kang, and then put on the quilt and other things.
After tidying up the room, I cleaned it again. The kang has been burning since it was set up. It should be ready for moving in tomorrow afternoon. The temperature in Northeast China has risen a lot in April, so we can sleep at night without burning the kang.
Thinking that I hadn’t used my sign-in for today, I silently said [Sign-in].
[Sign-in successful, congratulations to the host for receiving 50 yuan in cash]. The 400 yuan obtained from the previous sign-in, plus the 50 yuan given by Shen's mother, plus the money obtained from signing in today, after deducting the previous expenses for renting a house and buying cabinets, Shen Xiaoxia now has more than 400 yuan in cash.
On the morning of the last day of rest, Shen Xiaoxia got up early and packed almost everything. Shen Xiaoxia planned to take a walk around the village today. She had been busy for two days and had not had a good look at the situation in the village.
I took the quilt I had been sleeping on for the past two days back to my room in the backyard, and I could sleep on the kang at night.
For breakfast, Shen Xiaoxia cooked some porridge and ate a full bowl of it with some pickled vegetables made by her mother.
After eating, I washed the pots and dishes, locked the door, and left the Youth League compound.
Walk along the road in the village and look at the scenery around.
If Shen Xiaoxia was the original owner, a native of this era, she would probably be disgusted and unable to adapt to the rural environment.
But Shen Xiaoxia won’t. For Shen Xiaoxia, she actually misses and likes the rural environment and rural life very much.
So at this moment, even though the entire village did not have modern cement roads reaching every household, and every road was a loess road, Shen Xiaoxia was still happy.
