Riding a donkey back to 60s

Chapter 132 Buying New Year's Goods

As the saying goes in the 60s, "there is a good mood in tight days", when can the best mood be reflected?It's almost New Year's Eve!I usually live a tight life, and the clothes are also washed and mended, but ten days before the Chinese New Year, people start to buy new year's goods, and they all show a lot of money!

People who sell new year's goods crowded the streets of the county town, and some state-owned non-staple food stores sold wooden boards directly at the store entrance!At this time, there are still two festive red lanterns printed on the tickets issued by various units and streets!When people buy those meats, they also buy a large piece of meat of two or three catties. Looking at what they are carrying in their hands and placing it in a basket, it is much more comfortable than the usual purchases in twos and threes!Xia Ye was also crowded in the crowd, thinking of buying some of the tickets issued in his pocket and sending them back to his hometown in the village while he was resting.

People in the country pay attention to having fish every year, and this year's supply and marketing cooperatives are strong enough. There are hairtails from Changdu Island, freshwater fish from Inner Mongolia, and sea fish from Bohai Bay. There are many types, but the employees in the county It can be a festive main course for your New Year's Eve dinner.Xia Ye looked at the big ones, and quickly bought some of everything, and the ticket for the small stones was also in her hand, so she could finally let go and buy more.Thinking that there are two girls in the family, Xia Ye took the cloth tickets and bought them into red and blue corduroy or small floral cloth, and thought about going back to Mother Xia to make two new clothes for the national flower and national show. People in the space have ready-made clothes bought from the Shanghai stock market, and they just take advantage of the holidays.

On the way to purchase, Xia Ye kept meeting beaming front-line workers. Because Xia Ye would help her department run errands when she was not on business, she became familiar with them, and everyone greeted them.Old Yang, the squad leader of the first class, called Xia Ye from a distance: "Officer Xia, come here, there is mutton here!"

After Xia Ye heard this, she hurried over, there was no way to run, the supplies were limited, and once they were not in line, they would be gone.Xia Ye ran over to take Lao Yang's place, and thanked with a smile: "Brother Yang, thank you!"

Lao Yang chuckled: "You're welcome! I'm also here to see if there is anything I can bring back to my wife and children! I just saw you over there, so I'll arrange for you! It's a matter of convenience!"

Xia Ye and Lao Yang were queuing up and chatting: "Brother Yang, I remember that your home is in the pass, right? What's the matter? Have you bought the ticket? When are you leaving?"

Lao Yang laughed: "Leave on the 27th. When I get home, I will be doing a good job. I can spend a good year with my wife and daughter-in-law, but I haven't seen them for a year!"

Xia Ye nodded, "Yes! It's not easy! When we have a house, let my sister-in-law and the others come over!"

Lao Yang shook his head: "There are many children, it's better to have a larger house. If the lamp basket is really hard to live in, and you still have rations when you work in your hometown, follow me and count on the salary, you will not be rich!"

Xia Ye smiled: "Brother Yang, you are saving money, none of us know that your salary is high, and you will post it back as soon as the salary is released!"

Lao Yang smiled: "Save some, my wife and children can still have enough to eat! It's your turn! You buy first, I'll buy some snacks or something! This old man and children are rare!"

After hearing this, Xia Ye asked, "Are there enough tickets? I still have two tickets, why don't you take them first?"

Lao Yang was a little moved when he heard this, and Xia Ye took it out of his pocket and stuffed it directly to Lao Yang: "I have saved up some dim sum tickets. It's not easy for Brother Yang to go back, unlike our local area, take more back home, let the old man The kids are all happy!"

Lao Yang took it, nodded, and patted Xia Ye on the shoulder: "Officer Xia, I will bring you our big pancakes when I come back!"

Over there began to urge: "Are you going to buy it or not!"

Xia Ye hurriedly said: "Buy, buy! Give me the ticket!" Xia Ye handed over the money and the ticket, and bought five catties of mutton.

Lao Yang looked at Xia Ye busy and said, "Officer Xia, you buy it first, I'll go there!"

Xia Ye turned around and waved: "Succeed, Brother Yang, go back home and drink!" The salesman of the supply and marketing agency here angrily put the meat into Xia Ye's basket and shouted: "Next!"

Xia Ye was pushed and shoved, and hurriedly stepped aside!Xia Ye's first feeling is that this is not buying New Year's goods, this is grabbing New Year's goods!Thinking that the flour at home should be gone, I took the food book and white flour food stamps to buy Fuqiang powder. At this time, I used Fuqiang powder to make dumplings, and everyone felt delicious!

When Xia Ye came home, he was carrying a cloth bag on his shoulder and a basket in his hand.Of course, the adults walking on the road are basically like this, and the children will hold a windmill in their hands and follow the adults to the house happily, thinking in their hearts that the adults can start cooking delicious food today !

When Xia Ye arrived at the door of the house, Li Liqiu was holding the slop bucket and was thinking about pouring it out. Xia Ye looked at it and said hurriedly: "Put it there, I will pour it later!"

Li Liqiu was very happy watching Xia Ye come back, and wiped her hands on the cloth bib: "You're back? What did you buy?"

Xia Ye smiled: "There are quite a lot. When you pack them up, we'll send them home. Take the New Year's goods back first, and you stay at home to help your mother and aunt clean up the house. Our two families can have a better New Year this year." Already!"

Li Liqiu was very happy when he heard that, he put the slop bucket by the door, helped Xia Ye carry the basket, and the two entered the house one after the other.

Li Liqiu opened the cloth bag and said in surprise: "This is sea fish, ah! There are also carp! Ah? What is this?" Seeing Li Liqiu's startled look, Xia Ye pointed out one by one, "This year's non-staple food store is really Awesome! It’s rare to be able to bring these things from other places, I used all the tickets issued by myself and Xiao Shitou!"

Li Liqiu nodded: "It's very useful! Usually it's hard to get a ticket even if you have one!"

Xia Ye looked at her: "Hey? Didn't you say that Li Chun is off work today? Why didn't you look at her?"

Li Liqiu shook her head: "My sister left as soon as she came back. She said that there was a temporary train and she didn't take a break. It depends on the luck of the shift during the Chinese New Year. She said let's go back and don't have to wait for her!"

Xia Ye was taken aback when she heard this: "What can I do? What if she is alone at night and no one picks up?"

Li Liqiu nodded: "Sister said, if she comes back at night, she will live in the single dormitory, and if she comes back during the day, she will come back here, anyway, the key is also given!"

Only then did Xia Ye nod: "The conductor is tough enough! But seeing Li Chun's hard work, I feel relieved!"

Li Liqiu poured a cup of hot water for Xia Ye: "Drink some hot water first, and then order some shredded pork noodles to eat! We will go back after eating!"

Xia Ye took a sip of hot water: "I'll go and empty the slop bucket first! You give me the garbage in the house too! I'll take it down in one go!" Saying this, she stood up and walked out the door to pick up the slop bucket, Li Liqiu also came out , put all the rubbish collected at home in a bucket and handed it to Xia Ye, and Xia Ye took it out and dumped it.

Just as he was about to return with an empty bucket, a female voice called out, "Xiao Xia, just in time for you to come and help me!"

Xia Ye turned around after hearing the voice: "Sister Lanxi, why are you here?"

Lan Xi smiled: "What else can I do? On behalf of the trade union, I would like to express condolences to the staff and cadres! I just wanted to find a coolie, but I'm holding you!"

Xia Ye spread her hands with a bitter face: "Sister Lanxi, I have to go back to my hometown this afternoon!"

Lan Xi covered her mouth and smiled: "Don't worry, I won't miss your business, just help me send something to the staff of your dormitory!"

Xia Ye gritted his teeth and laughed: "Well, serve the people! I am very happy, and I will go up! I will take my share first?"

Lan Xi pointed at Xia Ye: "You comrade is really cunning!"

Xia Ye quickly said, "No, I'm here to reduce the pressure on work!"

Lan Xi pointed to the cart pushed by two gay men from the trade union behind: "They're all there! Five apples and a piece of soap!"

Xia Ye walked over, piled up the two barrels in his hand, picked up a box, and went out to the dormitory: "Sister Lanxi, you can come to my house directly, let's move the things up, and you can send it slowly. !"

Upon hearing this, Lan Xi clapped her hands, and said to the two comrades who came with her, "Comrade Xiao Xia has a good suggestion!"

The two colleagues nodded, and one of them, a tall and thin gay man, said, "Let Gan Gan watch from below first, and I will carry it up as well!"

Lan Xi nodded, and the two of them carried a box upstairs. When they reached the stairs, Xia Ye had already come down, and said to the two of them, "I put it at the door of my house! You can see it when you go up to the second floor. Come on, my partner is at home, you just go there directly!"

After speaking, he hurried down to carry it, this time Xia Ye can hold it with both hands.Xia Ye hurriedly moved three boxes and three boxes, but Director Lu was startled, and quickly said: "Officer Xia, is it okay? Or take them one by one!"

Xia Ye shook his head: "It's okay! I'm strong!" While walking steadily on the road while talking, Director Lu didn't close his mouth until the tall and thin man came back.

The tall and thin man asked, "What's the matter? Officer Lu?"

Officer Lu said with a look of surprise: "That Officer Xia has a lot of strength, I really can't see it!"

The thin and tall man smiled: "I was shocked when I went up just now. The tall ones blocked people's faces. I was so scared that I was shocked! Let's not talk about it, no one has the strength like others, so just walk a few more times , Let others do our own work, how bad it is!"

Officer Lu hurriedly said: "Officer Ma, take a rest and look here, I'll move it a few times!" Then he carried the box and went downstairs, and because Xia Ye was there, several people quickly moved the things go up.Because it was a labor union job, Xia Ye didn't follow, and Li Liqiu and Li Liqiu should cook and tidy up. They just waited for them to look at one household, and Xia Ye helped pack the things for several households, so that the three condolence groups could quickly to complete the task.

Xia Ye said to the three of them: "Stay here and have lunch before going back?"

The three quickly gave in, and Lan Xi said: "It looks like hand-rolled noodles, you don't have enough to eat here, the three of us will go directly to the cafeteria to eat, don't be too polite!"

Xia Ye smiled quickly: "Okay! Then I won't keep you! See you later!"
