Chapter 67: Scarves
After Jiang Xinyu tasted the food in the state-run restaurant in the 70s, Chen Yi took her to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Jiang Xinyu shook her feet slightly in the back seat, "What are you doing here?" ”
It's a place she can't afford to spend, and she has less than six cents in her pocket, and she won't be willing to spend it.
Chen Yi didn't speak, and quickly took out a ginger scarf after entering.
The scarves in the supply and marketing cooperatives are pink, green, and red, and the colors are extremely "authentic", Chen Yi couldn't pick out one that he thought looked good, so he reluctantly took a ginger strip, thinking that Jiang Xinyu had white skin, and he would definitely be able to suppress this kind of look.
When Jiang Xinyu was complicated, Chen Yi saw that she didn't answer, so he simply put her around her neck and the lower half of her face.
Seeing that ginger hanging on her neck was not dirty, but still youthful and beautiful, Chen Yi felt that her vision was quite good.
Su Qingqing and his companions from the educated youth point saw Chen Yi in the supply and marketing cooperative, and bought a scarf with a clear goal, although the style and color of the scarf of the supply and marketing cooperatives in this township are not as foreign as those in big cities, they are not willing to buy them.
When the two came out, they saw Chen Yi wrapping the scarf around Jiang Xinyu, and Su Qingqing's heart was really sour.
This brigade of young men, some said they liked her, and some were courteous to her, but none of them were generous enough to spend a few dollars to buy her a scarf.
Su Qingqing told herself that Jiang Xinyu was a village girl who had never seen the world, and when she got married in the future, she would also work in the field with her back to the loess, and in a few years, her young and good-looking face and slender figure would quickly become the appearance of most rural women. And she is different, she has the opportunity to return to the city, unlike Jiang Xinyu, a village girl who can see the future at a glance!
Thinking like this, Su Qingqing's heart was really much more comfortable.
With a new scarf around the face, it's really not that cold.
Chen Yi said again: "I will get the mold you said for you, and I will send it to you when I get home." ”
Jiang Xinyu asked, "How is the black market?" ”
She is also thinking about generating income for her family and improving her food level. After nibbling on the wild vegetable dumplings for a week, her face was going to be green.
"I arrested a lot of people last time, and the wind is still a little tight, and no one dares to come forward recently, so let's take it slowly."
After the words fell, he asked again: "Lack of money?" ”
Jiang Xinyu said: "The bottom of the house has been hollowed out by building a house, do you know what I eat at school?" ”
When he speaks, there is inevitably a bit of resentment in his tone.
He asked cooperatively, "What are you eating?" Tortillas? ”
Nowadays, people call cornmeal as cob noodles, and most people in the countryside make cornmeal mixed with sorghum flour that has not been cleaned and made into nests.
Jiang Xinyu snorted: "You haven't tasted the taste of wild vegetable dumplings." ”
Wild vegetable dumplings, the original Chen Yi had eaten them in the past, but he had never eaten them.
"Then I'll go to school later, and I'll bring you food at noon."
Jiang Xinyu was a little moved, and shook her head again, "Forget it, it's too eye-catching." ”
Chen Yi's tone repeated inexplicably: "Eye-catching? I can't see anyone? ”
Jiang Xinyu said righteously: "Everyone is hard and simple, I am special, what do you say others will say about me?" ”
The noodles fried by Comrade Chen Xiuyun for her aroused the envy of her classmates, and the two meat buns that Jiang Zhenzhen gave her that day were also quite eye-catching, if Chen Yi went to give her food every day, what would others say?
"It's good to go to the next restaurant every week." Jiang Xinyu can also be regarded as a contented person.
The subtle unhappiness in Chen Yi's heart disappeared in an instant after hearing her words.
The corners of his lips curled slightly, and he felt that Jiang Xinyu was quite easy to raise.
Anyway, the people in the team regarded the two as objects, and Jiang Xinyu didn't hide her ears and steal the bell, and sat directly at the door of the house.
The primary school in the brigade has long been out of school, and Comrade Chen Xiuyun and Jiang Yuzhu will be at home.
Chen Xiuyun, who was burning the fire in front of the stove, saw the scarf around Jiang Xinyu's neck at a glance, and she already wanted to scold Jiang Xinyu.
It's the object of conversation, but it's not married yet, just accepting Chen Yi's things, what is this like?
"Chen Yi, come in and drink saliva before leaving."
Chen Yi parked his bicycle at the gate of the yard and came in with Jiang Xinyu one after the other.
"Auntie, what about cooking?"
After Chen Xiuyun answered, she got up and washed her hands, and then used a clean enamel jar to brew a brown sugar water egg.
Chen Yi doesn't like to drink this thing, but this is also Chen Xiuyun's good intentions for him, if he drinks it, Chen Xiuyun will definitely be happy.
"You bought this scarf for her." Chen Xiuyun's tone was affirmative.
"Don't buy it next time, you just won't live, buy some wool, take it back and play it yourself, you can save a lot of money."
Jiang Xinyu didn't hear it, and she didn't know it when Chen Yi bought it, but she did take advantage of it.
Chen Yi smiled and said: "The girls in the county all wear this kind of scarf, so I wanted to buy it for her, but I didn't think about it so much." Auntie, don't wait for me to leave and tell her, when I bought it, she didn't know at all. ”
Chen Xiuyun looks at Chen Yi more and more pleasing to the eye, and spending money is also an attitude, although Chen Xiuyun doesn't want Chen Yi to spend so much. Thinking of the little girl's unashamed words, "Anyway, there is Chen Yi in the end", Chen Xiuyun's head suddenly hurt, thinking that Jiang Jianmin didn't spend any money on her when he was with her.
Chen Yi drank the egg water slowly, and it was a little unbearable to bear the smell of eggs in the brown sugar egg water.
Chen Xiuyun entered the house and wrapped up the mung bean cake that had been put away and was not willing to eat.
"Bring it back to your mother, your mother said it was delicious last time."
Chen Yi didn't want to eat and take it, but Chen Xiuyun was resolute and stuffed it directly into his arms, and he couldn't even refuse.
Waiting for them to leave, Chen Xiuyun glared at Jiang Xinyu fiercely.
"If someone sends it, you dare to accept it? What are you going to pay back? ”
Jiang Xinyu silently shrunk her neck, "Chen Yi said it just now, don't wait for him to leave, you will talk about me." ”
Chen Xiuyun's finger touched the door of her head, "Do you still know if you should accept it?" Do you know that he will speak for you in advance? You never thought that if the knew, you would spend her family's money before you passed the door, and it would give you a good face after passing the door? ”
Jiang Xinyu: "He wants to send it, what can I do?" When I have the money, I'll send it back. ”
If this were a different person, Jiang Xinyu would feel that it was not good to take other people's things, but Chen Yi and she were both decades later, and they were both people who had no worries about food and clothing, just a scarf, although she couldn't afford it, she really didn't pay attention to it.
But in Chen Xiuyun's eyes, this is not a good thing.
"Wait until you have money? When will you get rich? It's easy to open your mouth and say it..."
Jiang Xinyu felt that Comrade Chen Xiuyun's temper was a bit big today, and she couldn't afford to mess with it for more than ten minutes.
