The daily life of the foster brother who catches a beauty in 60

After working hard for a week, Xia Ye has almost prepared everything that needs to be prepared. The fried twists and noodles that have been fried before are all frozen to be eaten during the first month of the year, and some will be fried when the new year comes. Eat now.

Sister-in-law Qi finally came to town.

"Why did you come here so late? If you don't come now, I'm going to ask Yun Jing to send it to you."

While Xia Ye was helping Sister-in-law Qi and Sanya clean the snow off their bodies, Xia Xiaojun heard the noise in the house and came out to call Sister-in-law, and then poured two more cups of hot water.

Regardless of age, people of all ages are here.

"Hey, Xiaojun has really grown up a lot. He's just like a big boy. He'll be thirteen after the New Year. It goes so fast."

"No, it may be something I see every day. I can't tell how much I have grown, but the sleeves and trouser legs are much shorter than last year."

Sister-in-law Qi smiled, took off the scarf and gloves on her head, and placed them on the edge of the kang.

"When making cotton-padded jackets and trousers, didn't you leave an extra piece? Just let it out and add more cotton."

Xia Ye smiled and didn't respond. Isn't it always like this at this time? But Xia Ye doesn't need that bit of fabric or that bit of cotton, so she just needs to make another one.

"What about the child?"

"I'm sleeping in the west room. Xiaojun is studying and watching."

Sister-in-law Qi nodded, glanced around the room, and immediately spotted a sewing machine placed against the east wall.

"Oh, why did you buy the sewing machine before?"

Sister-in-law Qi walked over without lifting the curtain, and touched it carefully. It was obvious that she liked it very much.

Xia Ye walked over and opened the curtain, surprising Sister Qi.

"I've been buying it for several months. I bought it not long after you came here last time. Yunjing bought it. I didn't know it at first. It's very useful."

At first, Xia Ye just said casually that Qi Yunjing had been saving money for a long time, and then waited for the goods, and finally bought it for Xia Ye.

Now this sewing machine is a real big thing. In 1973, Xia Ye's family not only had a bicycle, but also a sewing machine, and a watch for each person. Even Xia Xiaojun had a watch of his own, but Xia Xiaojun didn't wear it much. , I felt a little too eye-catching, so I carefully placed them in my own cookie box.

"It's good. With this, work can be done faster and save trouble."

It was obvious that Sister-in-law Qi was really happy for Xia Ye, unlike some people who would only ask how much it cost, and then they would find it too expensive.

Sister-in-law Qi will give emotional value.

"If sister-in-law needs to use a sewing machine for making something, come over here and use it. We're not too far away anyway."

"Okay, if I want to make some clothes, I can come over and borrow a sewing machine to use."

At this time, Sister Qi didn’t know that the owner of this sewing machine would soon be her, that is, in four or five months.

Sister-in-law Qi came here with the intention of buying new year's goods. She had said hello to Xia Ye earlier, thinking that it was close to the supply and marketing cooperative and it would be more convenient to grab some good things, so she went to Xia Ye's first stop after returning. I'm trying my luck at the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Sister-in-law is here to get something, right? Just wait for me for a while, and I'll take out all the things. See if there's anything missing."

"Okay, by the way, I brought two chickens. They are all packed and frozen. You can save them for the Chinese New Year. I also brought some dried mushrooms, hazelnuts and pine nuts, etc. Put it outside, those things are not afraid of freezing, you can put them away later. "

As Xia Ye walked toward the house, she heard these words from Sister Qi.

"Where can I get these older things? They should be kept for the whole family to replenish. After a year of hard work, we must take this time to replenish our nutrition."

This was not said in a polite way, she really didn't lack anything here, but she was fully aware of Sister-in-law Qi's affection for her.

Soon Xia Ye walked out with a bag, put down her things, went outside again, and brought in another bag.

Sister-in-law Qi was dumbfounded by this. Are these all New Year's goods bought for her family? So older! The money and tickets in her pocket are probably not enough.

Xia Ye came back from outside and stamped her feet. When she entered the house, she found Sister Qi still looking at the bag in a daze.

"Why didn't you open it and take a look? Is there anything missing?"

"Hey, look, look now."

Only then did Sister-in-law Qi and Sanya open the bag and check it out.

Rice, white flour, and sticky noodles are all available, and there are quite a lot of them.

"How did you get this old pair's food?"

No amount of food is too much, but now this food is very expensive, so you can get as much as you want. But the limit is limited, even for people who work in the town, they also rely on the food book to get it. If you get more, you can get it. There is a certain amount.

"I met an aunt in town, and she didn't even use the tickets for all the food. Can I buy more?

These are all bought for your family. The food you asked for is not enough. "

The Qi family now has a total of four laborers earning work points. Sister-in-law Qi and her family plus her eldest son and daughter-in-law. The eldest daughter-in-law is also pregnant. She needs to eat more during pregnancy. One person needs to eat for two people to make up for it. After the spring comes, even if you can work to earn work points, you won't be able to earn much. As much as Sister-in-law Qi cares about her daughter-in-law, she will definitely not ask her daughter-in-law to work even though she is pregnant with a child.

"If I come across them again, I'll try to get more. I'll take these back and eat them first."

After getting all the food out, Xia Ye took out a few pieces of cloth again. This time the cloth was a thick military green cloth, which was heavy in the hand.

"There are also these fabrics, candy cubes, and these four bottles of cream. You, the eldest wife, and Erya and Sanya, each of you has a bottle. I bought this for you.

By the way, there is still some red wool here. I will knit a scarf for each of the two and three girls to take with them. I think there will be some leftover. I will knit a pair of gloves for each of them to take with them. It is still cold when school starts, so I will bring them with me. go to school.

Can Sanya know how to knit scarves and gloves? "

Qiao Sanya really didn't expect that her old aunt was still thinking about these girls, and even bought cream and wool. Her little face was flushed, and she didn't know whether it was excitement or embarrassment, and she nodded heavily.

"Yes, my second sister and I can do it!"

"Okay, then you can knit it yourselves. Let your little brother knit the same smoky one, so that your mother won't be tired."

Sister-in-law Qi thought this was shocking enough, but when she opened another bag, half of the bag was filled with pork and lard!

"Why is this old meat? It must be half a pig!"

"The meat on top is pork. It's all multi-layered. You can eat it any way you like. Besides, the winter is still so long, so you can eat it slowly while it's frozen.

The bottom part is pork suet, and the remaining fat is used for deep-frying to make steamed buns, or to make dumplings and eat them frozen. These may be good.

It's too garish for you to take all these things back. Take back a small part of these first, and I'll ask Yunjing to take the rest back to you on a bicycle. "
