The Happiness of Rebirth in the 80s

Chapter 27

In the planned economy, even a piece of paper was purchased by the supply and marketing cooperatives with a ticket, but since the reform and opening up, the situation has changed a lot, although some large items still have to be purchased with a ticket and it is very difficult to buy , but there is no need to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy all the daily necessities.

Some clever people are always good at seizing the opportunity. Although it has only been a few years since the reform and opening up, not to mention the vegetable market in the county town, a few individual restaurants and shops, even in the countryside, a half-monthly market has gradually formed. up the scale.Every village will have a gathering on a specific day, and vendors from all over the world will bring their things. There are everything in the market, and it is very cheap, which is very convenient for the villagers. up.

This time Wang Guilan and Liu Taoer went to the market in Pantao Village next to Gaojiatun.Gaojiatun is not far from Pantao Village, and there is a small river between the two villages.So even if the two of them walked, they would be there soon.

This is the third time for Liu Taoer to go out. The first time was when she returned to her mother's house. She was still in a daze. She was dazed when she saw so many people, so she didn't bother to look around. She just arrived in a daze. Home.The second time was to go to the hospital to see a doctor, not to mention, I was completely worried along the way, and when I came back, I was shocked by the news of pregnancy again, so I didn't have a chance.

So this time, Liu Taoer felt that everything she saw was new, and Wang Guilan, who was next to her, saw that she was curious about everything, so she smiled and said: "Taoer, you should go out and shop more, don't stay at home all day, what's the point of that?" Meaning. I don’t think you’ve been here a few times in this episode, and if you stay any longer, you’ll really become an ancient lady.” The conversation along the way brought the two of them closer. So I called Liu Taoer by first name.

Liu Tao'er now also knows a lot about this era, so she calmed down a lot when she saw men and women walking up and down the road. Hearing what Wang Guilan said, she smiled and said: "Sister-in-law said that, my temperament is like this, no Don’t be scolded by my mother. When I first got married, I was too embarrassed to go out. Later, Tongtong was born and I wanted to go out. Now that Tongtong is grown up, it is inevitable that I will come out later, so I have to ask my sister-in-law for help. "

Wang Guilan saw that Liu Taoer was telling her heartfelt and intimate words, and immediately raised her favorability to a higher level. Who said that the sisters of the Liu family are ignorant, because they are young and have children around them. That's all.So she patted her chest and said with a smile: "Look at what you said, please don't ask me, we don't need to talk about the relationship between Zhenhai and Aimin, if there is any sister-in-law who can help you in the future, just feel free Come to me, among other things, the sister-in-laws in this town are very familiar."

Liu Taoer also smiled, yes, as a concubine, it is instinctive to observe words and demeanor since she was a child, so she knew at a glance that this sister-in-law is a very neat and straightforward person, and she is very comfortable getting along with such a person, so she has something to say He didn't shy away from it, just told her directly, and the result was really good.

"Tao'er, what are you going to buy today?" Wang Guilan asked as the two got closer after what they had said.

Talking about this, Liu Taoer is inevitably a little shy, but she still whispered: "Aimin's clothes are no longer good, even shoes need to be made a few more pairs. I want to buy two pieces of cool cloth to make two sets of clothes for Aimin, and then buy Some smaller cloth to make him two pairs of shoes."

Looking at Liu Tao'er's blushing face, Wang Guilan couldn't help but sigh that this girl from the Liu family is really handsome, and there are really few people in the world who can't match her, no wonder Aimin feels pain when holding her in his hands.But this face is still too thin, what's there to blush for making clothes for your own man. "That's a good relationship. Let's buy it together. I also have to buy a piece of cloth from Zhenhai to make clothes. It can be cheaper if we buy together. As for making shoes, do you need to buy the soles, or do you want to buy the soles yourself? If you collect a lot of rags from our house, you can just take them directly from our house. If you ask me, the plastic soles are really not as comfortable as the layered soles we bought by ourselves."

Liu Taoer also has that kind of plastic sole in her memory, which is something that has just become popular recently. Just make the upper and sew it on.It can be said that what makes her better than the women of this era is this female celebrity. Everyone likes to show their best side to the person they like, so of course she wants to take the soles of her shoes.So she said to Wang Guilan: "What my sister-in-law said is that I also feel that the soles of my shoes are more comfortable."

With Wang Guilan's help, the fabric was bought without a hitch.Liu Taoer bought a piece of dark blue material to make a jacket for Gao Aimin, and also bought a piece of black material to make trousers.After thinking about it, she bought another light blue one. Summer is coming soon, so she can make one for summer.Wang Guilan was reluctant to buy so much. She only bought a piece of black material for her husband to make a jacket, but she didn't buy any trousers.As for the money she originally planned to buy for herself, Wang Guilan hesitated for a while and still didn't buy it, thinking of her son and husband eating the bowl of pork ribs that Liu Taoer gave her.The family hasn't eaten meat for a long time, and buying a catty of meat makes her husband and son happy. As for her clothes, they can last for another year.

The two bought a lot of things, and Wang Guilan was a good bargainer. The small piece of fabric for Gao Aimin's shoes didn't cost money at all, so Wang Guilan said that it was expensive, and Liu Taoer was shocked.

After buying cloth, the two went shopping for a while. Wang Guilan bought a catty of fat and thin pork and cruelly bought a pack of dim sum for her son to eat.Liu Tao'er didn't buy these, she didn't like those dim sum, but bought some sugar and seasonings to make at home.

Wang Guilan saw that although Liu Tao'er was not very good at bargaining when buying things, but she didn't spend money recklessly, she fell in love with her even more, and said to Liu Tao'er with a smile: "Our stinky eats these snacks the most, and I will give them to Tong Tong when I go back. Divide into a piece, their children like to eat this." Although Wang Guilan is thrifty, she is not stingy, this pack of dim sum is only five yuan, but seeing that Liu Taoer didn't buy it, she told Liu Taoer to share it with Tongtong.

But Liu Tao'er can't compete with other children's mouths. The situation of Yu's family is there, and it is far from theirs.She could clearly see the painful expression on Yu's sister-in-law's face when she bought this package of dim sum just now.Then he said: "Sister-in-law, don't be so polite, I will make a few small snacks, and I will make them for my sister-in-law and stinky egg to taste. Tongtong's girl is a glutton, but her teeth are not even full. I don’t dare to give her more sweet food, just drink some porridge and eat some steamed buns, or egg custard.”

Seeing that they had bought almost the same things, the two started to walk back, talking while walking.Wang Guilan heard Liu Taoer say that the child's teeth were not fully grown, so she said, "Don't worry, this child can only grow his teeth at the age of three. The children in our rural areas can grow teeth by eating whatever they want. The dolls in the movie are not the same. But it is better to feed the child some eggs or something, so that the child will be strong. By the way, the vaccination in the brigade also needs to be vaccinated, which is not a trivial matter.”

Along the way, the two talked about the parenting scriptures, and soon arrived at the door of the house.Before returning home, Wang Guilan stuffed Liu Taoer with a snack.But she couldn't refuse, so Liu Tao'er put away the dim sum, thinking in her heart that she would make something new later and then take some to Yu's sister-in-law and children.
