Yu Yu took the clothes and walked out of the small courtyard. At this time, there were many people in the middle courtyard, all washing vegetables and chatting.
Suddenly everyone's eyes lit up.
I saw Yuyu carrying a bag of clothes into the middle courtyard. All the aunts and ladies were stunned for a moment, and then they felt as if they had discovered a new world.
However, some ones that were about the same size as the rainwater surrounded the rainwater.
"Yu Yu, where did you get this outfit? It's so beautiful. It's not cheap."
"Sister Xiuxiu, Brother Ma Teng made this for me. The fabric used is the leftover fabric from Brother Ma Teng's clothes. You see, many of the clothes are spliced." Seeing that the rain could not go away, he could only stop.
"Yu Yu, you tell me, Xiao Ma can also make clothes?" an aunt said.
"Of course, look, my clothes are beautiful, brother Ma Teng made them for me.
Dear aunts and sisters, I have to go home and put away my clothes. Brother Ma Teng is still waiting for me to cook for him. "Yu Yu squeezed through the crowd and jogged for a few steps. When he arrived at his door, he took out the key to open the door, put away his clothes, locked the door again, turned around and ran back to Ma Teng's yard.
"Look at how old you are now. Come back and sneak into a man's yard. It's shameless."
"Aunt Jia, please be kind to your mouth. The amount of rain is too high. Even so, my pony is not big and my childhood sweetheart. What's wrong? Are you jealous? If you have the ability, your pony will grow up to be so big and you will compete with others. Go ahead and say something sarcastic. If you have the guts to go to someone else's door and yell, the last time the pony slapped you was pretty light." Wang Hongyan, Zhao Tiezhu's daughter-in-law, couldn't stand listening anymore and stared at Jia Zhang and scolded her. got up.
The Zhao family is not afraid of her Jia family. There are eight members of the Zhao family, including father-in-law and mother-in-law. They also have children. They are considered the richest family in the courtyard. When holding weddings outside the courtyard, Zhao is the first person they look for. Go home and help.
As for the Jia family, I rarely go to his family and understand everything.
"You... hum." Jia Zhang took a mouthful of thick phlegm and spit it at the door, twisted her butt and returned to the house.
The Jia family's lunch today was cabbage stew. Jia Dongxu finally borrowed 1 yuan and 1 catty from Yi Zhonghai at noon.
Qin Huairu bought 9 taels, and then Jia Dongxu cut into half and said that it was given to his master and he didn't have to cook for him at noon.
Just half a pound of meat is enough to make a meaty meal.
Qin Huairu was cooking when she saw Jia Zhang coming in cursing, saying that she was bullying her, and now even the Zhao family dared to bully her.
Qin Huairu doesn't want to pay attention to her mother-in-law now, it's too annoying.
He went out with the basin, preparing to collect water from the basin and come back for later use. But when he took the basin to the water pipe, Qin Huairu listened to the chattering, saying that Ma Teng bought a whole set of new clothes for Yu Yu, at least. There are dozens of them.
Qin Huairu's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. I haven't made any move yet. How dare that little hoof ask Ma Teng to buy her clothes?
Qin Huairu felt a little confused when she heard about the stuff, what it looked like, and so on. She returned to the house with only half a basin of water in her hands, cooking and looking outside.
The dish Yu Yu made was fried bacon with green pepper. It can be said that only a little green pepper was added, which was at least a pound of bacon. Ma Teng said that cutting it too little would not taste meaty, and adding too much pepper would be too spicy.
The staple food is a pot of steamed rice. There are several thousand kilograms of rice in the space. Even if it is made with great effort, it cannot be eaten in three years.
An egg tomato soup.
While eating, Ma Teng praised the rain again.
After cleaning up, it was almost 2 o'clock.
Ma Teng pushed the car and pulled out the rainwater that wanted to help Ma Teng clean up the house.
There was a bang, and the door was locked. This girl is also stubborn. Can't she clean it up when she comes back? You have to clean it up now.
"Xiao Ma, are you going to take Yu Yu out? Don't tell me, Yu Yu looks so beautiful in this outfit." An aunt was idle at the door and saw Ma Teng pushing the cart to go out with Yu Yu behind him.
"No, Rainwater's clothes are expensive, right? Why haven't I seen them in a department store? Brother Ma Teng, where did you buy them?"
"I didn't buy it, I made it myself. I'm at home, right? I can do some sewing, right?"
Everyone, please be free. Yu Yu and I have something to do. "As he said that, he pushed the cart out of the middle courtyard.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, did you see that the material of the rain clothes is the same as the pony's clothes? Is it really made by the pony himself? Is that amazing?"
"It seems to me that Xiaoma is the first technical secondary school student in the hospital. He is still in a technical position. He is definitely smart."
………………
"Come up and sit in the car." After leaving the compound gate, Ma Teng patted the back seat.
The rain pulled Ma Teng's clothes and he sat on it.
In just ten minutes, the two of them arrived at the department store. Maybe because it was just afternoon, there were not so many people there, so they arrived just in time.
Ma Teng took Yu Yu with him. He didn't go to the tobacco and alcohol counter, but went directly to the second floor and went straight to the cotton counter.
"Comrade, how do you sell cotton?" Ma Teng pointed at the cotton behind the salesperson and said.
"Do you have a ticket?" The salesperson didn't even look up.
"have."
"Did you get the supply book?"
"Supply book? I don't have one. What is a supply book?" Ma Teng scratched his head.
"Without a supply book, one person can sell you up to 2 kilograms of cotton, and a ticket is required."
"Can I buy more?" Ma Teng asked softly.
"No, you can't sell two kilograms per person, or one tael more. Cotton is a controlled item, and the country is in short supply. This has to be transferred from above, otherwise there is no cotton to buy here at all.
If you really want to buy one, go to a trust store and buy a few of those old quilts and jackets, take them apart, wash them, and play them again. Isn’t this just cotton? And it doesn’t cost a ticket. "The salesman said honestly, yes, this is also one of his jobs. Although he can't sell it, he can tell people where to buy cotton. You can't let people freeze to death.
"Okay, comrade, I want two catties." Ma Teng took out the ticket and still had money.
"In the household registration book, we need to record who bought it."
Ma Teng took out his household registration book from his pocket and handed it over.
"Brother Ma, if I had known I would have brought my household registration certificate with me, otherwise we would have been able to sell four kilograms." Yuyu said.
"It doesn't matter, I've never bought cotton before."
The salesperson carefully weighed the two pounds, rolled them up in newspapers, tied them up and handed them to Ma Teng.
Ma Teng took it and dragged Yu Yu to the woolen counter.
There are not many colors, only red, green, blue, white, and a light pink.
"Comrade, how can I buy wool?" Ma Teng pointed at the wool and asked.
"The thick ones are ninety-eight cents, and the thin ones are seventy-three cents. The colors are all the same price, and no tickets are required." The salesperson said.
Ma Teng smacked his lips, this is not ordinary expensive.
"Can I see the thickness?" Ma Teng said.
The salesman was just about to say something when he looked up and saw Ma Teng's handsome face. He casually picked up two and placed them on the counter. "Look at them as you like. Don't take them apart." Ma Teng could do whatever he wanted. All salesmen in this era are like this.
Ma Teng looked carefully.
The thick ones are more cost-effective.
"Thick ones, comrade, I want thick ones. Please bring me 8 white ones, 4 pink ones, and 4 more red ones. I don't want the others."
After Ma Teng finished speaking, the salesperson had already brought them. "15 yuan, 6 cents and 8 cents."
After taking out the money to pay, he took the issued ticket and stuffed the paper bag into Yu Yu's arms.
Pulling her down, Ma Teng saw the rain these few times and just washed his face. Thinking about it, there should be no soap or anything to wipe his face.
On the first floor, there is a daily chemicals area with three consecutive counters for washing and skin care.
"Hello comrade, two bottles of friendship cream, and two bars of soap, the jasmine one."
"Snow cream is 2 yuan 2 each, 4 yuan 4, soap is 9 cents a piece, 1 yuan 8, a total of 6 yuan 2." The salesperson took it out and put it on the counter and started to issue the ticket.
Ma Teng paid directly.
Just grab your ticket and go.
"Walking home." He waved to Rain, and put the cream and soap in the bag held by Rain.
The last thing Ma Teng wanted to do was visit a department store.
But there’s no way around it if you don’t go shopping.
Yu Yu followed behind, making a lot of noise. As he walked, his little nose smelled the aroma coming from the box.
Riding the bike with the rainwater, we headed straight to the vegetable market. Today is the last day and we have to go to work tomorrow. Why don’t we have something good to eat?
Anyway, that's what Ma Teng thought.
