60s happy life

Chapter 7
The snow falls early in the Northeast, especially in the mountains, snowflakes have already fallen in November.

On this day, Liu Xiaoying had just soured the sauerkraut when someone came outside.

"Is Yingzi at home?"

Liu Xiaoying went out and saw Zhang Shugen's wife standing outside. "Auntie, I'm at home, why don't you come to me today when you have time?"

"Your letter came from the team. I won't send it to you." Zhang Shugen's wife handed the letter to her with a smile.

Liu Xiaoying took it without looking carefully, "Come in, Auntie, it's quite cold outside."

"No, no, no, I still have to pickle pickles when I get home. If you have time at this time, you should be busy." Zhang Shugen's daughter-in-law delivered the things and went back immediately. There are still a lot of things to do at home.

"Auntie, go slowly, come over when you have time." Liu Xiaoying sent the man away, and hurried into the house, it was already snowing outside.I also wear a small padded jacket, which is an old clothes, it seems to be a padded jacket, such thin clothes can not survive the winter.

Liu Xiaoying sat on the bed in her slippers, and the mailing address on the envelope was the city next door, so it should be from He Haowen.

Opening the letter, it was Comrade Liu Xiaoying who caught my eye.

"This era is really interesting, everyone is gay." Liu Xiaoying smiled and continued.

The content of the letter was very simple, first it was a greeting, and then he said that He Haowen returned to the army and left for a mission before he had time to write the letter.This is the reason why it took so long to reply to the letter, and then he said that He Haowen had notified his family before he left, and that he would discuss marriage when he returned home after the Chinese New Year.

And Liu Xiaoying should remember to write back to him, there are more than a dozen tickets neatly placed in it, and there is still ten yuan.

Liu Xiaoying looked at it, and there were a few cloth tickets, cotton tickets and food tickets, all of which she should need.

"It's quite careful." Liu Xiaoying nodded, remembering that there was no pen and paper at home, so there was no way to reply to the letter.

"Looks like I'm going to the county tomorrow, and I have to pull cloth to make a padded jacket." Liu Xiaoying thought about a lot of things she needed.

The padded jacket does not need to be too thick, there is thermal underwear in the space.Just make a thinner padded jacket, and you also need a pair of shoes and trousers.

There are no vegetables at home, and the cabbage used for sauerkraut is also replaced from the next door.One hundred catties of corn noodles were exchanged for one hundred catties of cabbage, fifty catties of radishes, and some red peppers.Food is much more precious than vegetables these days.

The Li family took a lot of advantage in these things, and Mrs. Li felt very sorry, knowing that Liu Xiaoying made clothes, she took the job directly.

Li Xiaoying agreed directly. Originally, she was still thinking about how to make clothes, but this time she has a helper.

At dawn the next day, Liu Xiaoying went out after eating a bowl of instant noodles, and had to walk more than ten miles to the county.It takes two hours to walk no matter what, so I went out after five o'clock.There is a car in her space, but the road is uneven, and it is hard to explain to people who see it. Where did she get the car as an orphan.

Besides, the fuel in the car is limited, there is only one tank and there is no spare, so the car can only be used on a sharp edge.

Liu Xiaoying tightened the thin padded jacket on her body, wearing thermal underwear inside, and a dark blue scarf on her head, which directly covered half of her face. These things were all in the space.

The scarf is the most inconspicuous color, without any decoration, so it is much more novel than the current scarf.

It was less than eight o'clock when Liu Xiaoying came to the county, and most of the houses in the county were square meters, the most eye-catching ones being the small two-story red brick houses of the supply and marketing cooperative.

It says serve the people, Chuncheng County Supply and Marketing Cooperative.

There were not many people on the street, and the door of the supply and marketing agency was ajar, with a thick quilt hanging on it, making it impossible to see what was going on inside.

Liu Xiaoying lifted the thick quilt and walked in. There were only a few people shopping inside, and there were more shoppers than shoppers.

Looking at the goods placed on the dilapidated wooden shelves, Liu Xiaoying really didn't like it at all. The things in her own space were more than a hundred times better than this.

It's a pity that things that are too novel can't be taken out. She looked at them as she walked, and most of them were more daily necessities. There were only five watches in the watch counter, both men's and women's styles.

After walking around for only 1 minute, Liu Xiaoying returned to the counter selling cloth.

The young woman at the counter curled her lips when she saw her attire, but she still said, "I need some comrades."

Liu Xiaoying looked at the cloth behind her, and reluctantly pointed to a piece of black cloth. She didn't know what it was, but it looked like it could be used as pants.

"Comrade, I want the three-foot black cloth, and the blue two-foot one." Liu Xiaoying felt that it was almost enough, and there was nothing she could do if it wasn't enough. She only had a five-foot cloth ticket in her hand.

However, there are a lot of cloth in her space, all old cloth left by her former mother, mostly black and dark khaki, and some white cloth.

Liu Xiaoying's eyes were dark, there was an older brother and a second brother, so they wouldn't be too sad, the older brothers were all filial, and the two elders would spend their old age in peace.

"Comrade, the total is four yuan and seventy cents, a five-foot cloth ticket."

The salesman took the money, and the rope clipped above his head swished away.

Liu Xiaoying looked at it curiously, she had heard about this era from her grandparents before, and knew that tickets were required for shopping, and it was difficult to go out without a ticket.

Liu Xiaoying watched the receipt come back, and the salesperson handed her the cut cloth.

I bought some cotton and spent one yuan, and then Liu Xiaoying went out with the things.

Before leaving, Liu Xiaoying looked at the clocks and clocks of the supply and marketing cooperative, and then took out the mechanical watch from the space and adjusted it before putting it into the space.

Not knowing the time every day is also very difficult.No one in the village had a clock, and she hadn't been to many of them, anyway, the Li family didn't have one.

After leaving the county seat, Liu Xiaoying put her things into the space, and then hurried back, walking quickly, she would be home by noon.
