Grandma couldn't hear Xiao Man's answer, she reached out and touched her, and she touched her stomach, and immediately smiled: "Big eyes and small belly, it's enough to eat this bowl! There are still so many melon and sugar snacks that haven't moved, keep them at home and eat them slowly! Wait for the next market day We will come again, and next time we will eat a bowl of rice balls and sweet wine!"
Xiao Man also smiled embarrassedly: Time has passed, the rich life she had in her previous life does not belong to her at this time, the hunger of this little body is by no means false, she really feels that she can eat very much, the fried oil balls on this street market open dates and beans and the like, compared with the high-end dim sum bakery she ran in her previous life, it cannot be said that the difference is not big, but she is willing to eat now, she just wants to eat these!
"Let's go, let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative, buy something, and go home!"
Ah Gong greeted Xiao Man, the two of them helped Grandma up left and right, slowly walked out of the rain pavilion with the flow of people, passed by a man who sold fried peanuts and sunflower seeds, Ah Gong stopped and asked Xiao Man if he wanted it? Xiao Man said that there were enough snacks he bought today, so he didn't want it. Ah Gong said that the little girl of the branch secretary was clamoring to eat fried sunflower seeds last night, and Grandma also remembered it, and hurriedly asked Ah Gong to weigh one pound of fried peanuts and sunflower seeds each, and told Ah Gong to tell him to remember to weigh another pound of fruit candy in the supply and marketing cooperative.
The commune supply and marketing cooperative, which is only a dozen square meters wide than the village brigade, has two floors, the upstairs sells cloth, ready-to-wear, shoes and socks, bedding, etc., and the downstairs things are more miscellaneous and more, raw salt, sauce, vinegar and sugar, pots and pans, buckets, kerosene lamps, and various agricultural tools.
Grandma wants to go upstairs first, Grandpa wants to see tools and farm tools, Xiaoman doesn't care, go to the supermarket in the future, the current supply and marketing cooperatives are really not enough to see, and they are completely unattractive.
But no matter what, since we live in the current situation, we still have to use what we should use, so Xiao Man followed Grandma upstairs to buy some daily necessities, and Grandpa went to pick up farm tools by himself.
Xiao Man knew that Ah Gong and Grandma were rich, but when Grandma fumbled and took out a thick little blue cloth bag from the inner pocket of the small side of the big jacket, handed it to her and asked her to open it, Xiao Man was still shocked - Grandma alone had a full 200 yuan hidden on her body, as well as a stack of cloth tickets and industrial coupons!
Naturally, the renminbi was saved by Ah Gong's hard work in collecting medicinal materials and selling them in the city, so there is no need to question this. The cloth ticket is issued uniformly by the team, Ah Gong and Grandma live with Mo Lao Er, and Mo Er Aunt is in charge, how can she give the cloth ticket to Grandma for collection? And this industrial coupon, how did you get it?
Grandma smiled and said: "These tickets, your grandfather got them in the city, if your second aunt treats me like someone else's daughter-in-law, I will collect them all for her, but unfortunately, I want to give it to her, but I can't give it! You take all of these, and after a while, grandma says what to buy, you can pick the color and style you like, the salespeople are all public people, they won't lie to us, calculate how much money, you just pay for it!"
Xiao Man opened the cloth bag that still carried Grandma's body temperature, his nose was sour, and he said: "Milk, let's take a look, look at it and buy it next time, this is the ...... Grandpa gave you"
Money, life-saving!
Grandma patted Xiaoman's hand: "Grandma's body, Grandma knows, except for not seeing, there is no other problem, what do you need?" Now that you are by your side, we have a new home, and we have to buy some new things." Your grandfather doesn't understand this, what's the use of him, if he doesn't have it, he doesn't use it, but you can't! You are a girl, and girls should be pampered by birth! Liu Fengying doesn't love you, grandma hurts! You are now a granddaughter of Grandpa and Grandma, and you have to buy it for you if you have this condition, and you have to be the same as other people's girls! When you grow up, even if you don't have Grandpa and Grandma by your side, you have to be good to yourself, try to make yourself comfortable, and you can't settle for anything!
Xiao Man was speechless, and tears rolled down: how can she be so favored by grandma!
Tears fell on the back of Grandma's hand, Grandma didn't say anything anymore, and reached into the inner bag again, and took out an embroidered handkerchief with pinched teeth, the handkerchief was old and yellow, but it was washed clean, folded neatly, and Grandma used the handkerchief to wipe Xiaoman's tears.
In her previous life, Xiaoman also saw that the village consignment store had such handkerchiefs for sale, two cents and five cents a piece, she was very envious of people who could use handkerchiefs, but she was not able to have a handkerchief of her own until Liu Fengying received the bride price money and married out, and when she finally had three or five private pocket money in her pocket, the consignment store did not sell handkerchiefs, and after a while, people began to use disposable paper towels, and Mo Xiaoman seemed even more outdated.
And Xiaoman never saw her have a handkerchief when she washed her clothes for her grandmother before, and she must have cherished it very much, maybe she washed it at home and hung it in the house to prevent the children from taking her away!
Xiao Man thought of this, and burst into tears: "Grandma, you ...... You've got a handkerchief!"
Grandma paused, and a strange look appeared on her face: "What's the matter? Grandma has a handkerchief, is it strange? Grandma has a lot of good things!"
"Oh-oh? What's that good thing?"
"Does gold, silver, and jewelry count?"
Xiao Man nodded again and again: "Count, count, where is it?"
Grandma giggled, in addition to doting in her voice, there was also a trace of love that was only revealed in front of Grandma: "If Grandma knew that there would be you, a little money fan, waiting here, she would have left one or two good things for you at the beginning!"
Xiao Man was deflated: "It turned out to be a thing of the past, that is, there is no one now, it's a pity!"
Grandma smiled happily again and patted her on the shoulder: "Quickly take Grandma to pick out a beautiful bed sheet for you, a new quilt, a new mosquito net, and a pillowcase towel or something, wait for you to have a sweet dream at night, you can have everything you want!"
Xiaoman: "......"
Grandma was happy, she was so childlike that she would make fun of her!
Grandma is in charge, two hundred yuan is really nothing in the eyes of Xiaoman, a loser who once spent a lot of money, but more than half an hour, when Ah Gong went upstairs to find the grandparents, he only saw a bunch of things, and the money was spent nothing, and Grandma also asked Ah Gong to take two yuan and make up a pair of transparent plastic sandals for Xiao Man!
Ah Gong stared at the pile of things for a long time, and finally shook his head and didn't say anything, he was stunned by the speed at which the ancestors and grandchildren spent money!
Grandma was sent to the place where the ox cart was put and waited, and Grandpa and Xiaoman ran twice before they moved everything back to the cart frame and put it away.
Two hundred yuan was very useful in 1977, and I bought a lot of things, but the cloth tickets were not enough, so Grandma followed the advice of the salesman and exchanged the money with others.
Xiaoman has his own quilt, brand new: quilts, bed sheets, pillows, mosquito nets, basins...... Considering that Xiaoman can't sew quilt covers, and grandma can't see them, she bought two quilt blankets, which can be used to cover her stomach in summer, and wrap a quilt in cold weather with two quilts, and sew them with needles and threads to act as quilt covers!
This is simple and easy, the thread blanket is thicker than cotton, and sewing it into a quilt cover will only be warmer, even if Xiaoman can't sew, Grandma can slowly grope for a good job.
There is also a comb grate made of new boxwood, Xiao Man has short hair and can't be tied up, otherwise Grandma will buy her colorful scarves and silk ribbons to tie her head!
The new handkerchief bought four, two grandma, two Xiaoman, handkerchiefs have a lot of colors, Xiaoman asked grandma, and chose their favorite colors.
New towels, soap soap sea beating brand shampoo also bought, Xiao Man said that she wants to wash her hair with tea withered water like grandma, tea withered this thing is a treasure for hair care in later generations, and it is really good for hair. Grandma didn't listen, so she wanted Xiao Man to use the most popular Hai Beat brand shampoo - it doesn't make sense that what everyone admires will be bad?
took Xiao Man to the clothes and shoes and socks counter, bought Xiao Man three pairs of underwear, with three small vests, and at Xiao Man's strong request, Grandma agreed to buy two new underwear and two vests for herself and Grandpa, all of which were basket cards!
The saleswoman saw that although Grandma couldn't see with her eyes, she could buy things and pay for them, so her attitude towards Grandma was obviously very good, and she took a newspaper to help pack the clothes, and told Grandma: The textile factory that produces this flower basket brand underwear is a national key enterprise, and the quality is absolutely guaranteed.
Grandma smiled and nodded, and listened to the saleswoman introduce that the new batch of girls' clothes were very beautiful, and the large ones were suitable for Xiao Man's age, and Grandma immediately asked the saleswoman to try them on for Xiao Man.
The clothes are complete, a small floral top on a blue background, with blue straight-leg pants, Xiao Man was fiddled with by the salesperson to put on new clothes, and then pushed to the glass cabinet to see the shadow reflected inside, sure enough, people rely on clothes, she herself feels like a changed person, the clothes are hung on the shelves and do not see anything, wearing it on her body seems to be tailor-made, the small lapels, chest, cuffs, and trouser seams have a luminescent color border, which looks novel and exquisite, dignified and elegant, in this era, it should be considered very fashionable!
The saleswoman smiled and said to grandma: "Your granddaughter looks so good, and with this set of clothes, she is top-notch, and she is even more beautiful than the girls in the city!"
Grandma loves to hear this, and waved her hand: Buy it!
If you want new clothes and new shoes, you have to buy a new pair of sandals, and you have no money, so you have to wait for your grandfather to pay!
Ah Gong walked downstairs, bought some farm tools and common tools at home, a whole set of brand new pots and pans, weighed the candy according to Grandma's instructions, bought raw salt, sauce and vinegar, thought about the lard that had not yet been cooked, and rushed to the pork supply office, and bought more than a pound of fat pork to boil oil at home!
Calculate carefully, Ah Gong also spent a lot of money today!
