Chapter 39

Su Xiaoxiao held Xiaodoubao in his arms. His hands had already removed the straps and could move freely without bumping into them. There was no child seat at this time. Su Xiaoxiao was worried about bumps in the road or sudden braking in an emergency. Class, just to be on the safe side, it's safe to hold the little cub in your arms.

The little cub takes a bath and washes his hair every day. It is soft and fragrant, and it is very comfortable to hold in his arms.

"If Xiaodoubao is sleepy, sleep a little longer." Xiaodoubao usually gets up at about seven o'clock, but he got up at six o'clock today.

Xiaodoubao raised his face to look at his mother, shook his head, and then pointed to the trees, houses and old cows grazing on the ridges, which were rapidly moving backwards on both sides of the national road.

A tractor full of people passed by, Xiaodoubao grabbed Su Xiaoxiao's arm excitedly: "Mama, look~~~"

Xiaodoubao rarely travels by car. When he was picked up last time, he was still confused and confused about the situation. Now that he has been raised, he is new to everything that has been blessed by the speed outside the car.

Su Xiaoxiao looked out and thought that Comrade Hancheng was driving slowly enough that even the tractor overtook him, but he had a calm personality, and with two cubs in the car, safety was the number one priority.

Hancheng looked at the rearview mirror: "Xiaodoubao, call me Dad."

Two days ago, Onigiri said that he could call him brother, so why wouldn't he call him father?

Xiaodoubao glanced at Hancheng in the rearview mirror, turned his head, and ignored it.

Onigiri also coaxed him to call him brother, and scratched his armpit, but he seemed to be fighting against his brother on purpose, but he didn't call him.

But as long as Su Xiaoxiao asked him something, he would be irritated, and the one-word, two-word answer would make the rice ball angry.

The family said that it was only seven o'clock when Nao Nao arrived in the city, and that the Civil Affairs Bureau did not go to work until eight or nine o'clock, so they went to buy more sought-after substances first.

The meat factory and the non-staple food factory in the city are next to each other, just not far from the Civil Affairs Bureau, and it only takes a few minutes to walk.

In the planned economy era of buying things by ticket, materials were scarce, and people queuing to buy things were a vast crowd every day. The market in the city was several times larger than that in the town, but the same people were several times more numerous. Su Xiaoxiao was holding a bean bag. , Hancheng also joined the queue with rice balls.

Hancheng was wearing the latest military uniform. He was tall and handsome. The two cubs were good looking. They were also wearing new clothes. Only the petite and sweet Su Xiaoxiao was wearing a half-new and patched clothes.

The enthusiastic aunt who was queuing next to her couldn't help but touch Su Xiaoxiao's arm, and kindly advised her: "Daughter, we lesbians can hold up half the sky, don't always focus on men and children, you have to be nice to yourself. ."

Susu smiled and blinked, not knowing why: "Auntie, I'm very good to myself."

She doesn't seem to have wronged herself, does she? How could this old lady have such an illusion?

The aunt hated that iron was not steel, raised her jaw and pointed at the two cubs, and pointed to Hancheng: "You guys are all good-looking, but you are the only one in rags, I just saw you got out of the car. Yes, the conditions at home should not be bad, don't blame your aunt for not reminding you, men don't know how to love their daughter-in-law, you have to learn to love yourself."

The aunt straightened her back and tugged at the corners of her clothes: "Look, this one on me is really good. I bought it from the state-run shopping mall in front of me. The salesperson said it is the latest style. Is this aunt suitable?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "...???" You aunt who doesn't know the goods, don't look at the cotton clothes on me that don't look good, and they have been patched, but compared to the airtight and sweaty ones, it is indeed much more comfortable to be eliminated soon. Okay?

But Su Xiaoxiao also knows that this year, everyone respects the soft, thin and durable. There is no way.

The rice ball whispered into his father's ear, "Dad, it seems that my mother is the only one in our family who has no new clothes. Let's go buy her new clothes!"

Onigiri remembered that my mother used to wear green uniforms like my father, but my mother seemed to wear only those patched clothes. He and his younger brother had new clothes.

Hancheng took Su Xiaoxiao's hand without saying a word and walked out of the queue.

Su Xiaoxiao blinked: "What are you doing?"

"Go shopping for clothes first," Hancheng said.

Originally, Su Xiaoxiao meant that good meat is more in demand, so you queue up to buy the meat and then go to buy clothes. It doesn't matter if you talk about the certificate in the afternoon. Originally, Hancheng thought it was all right, but now he thinks that buying clothes is more important than buying meat, otherwise he will talk about it. Going down, the aunt will think that he is abusing his daughter-in-law.

Su Xiaoxiao really didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's not bad for a while, we came here with great difficulty."

The aunt in the back is watching the fun and doesn't think it's a big deal: "Yes, yes, buy clothes first, remember to buy really good ones!"

Su Xiaoxiao: "..." Auntie, I reasonably suspect that you deliberately removed me from the team in order to be one less place.

The rice ball hugged his father's neck and turned his head: "Grandma, although my mother's clothes are not as good-looking as yours, she looks good-looking. Our family loves mother the most. It's really good for us to buy it now!" Humph!

All the people in line looked at them, Su Xiaoxiao could only say to the aunt, "Sorry for the inconvenience, children are ignorant."

Su Xiaoxiao pushed the little head of the rice ball back: "Okay, you still know it's good, don't be rude."

Hancheng smiled and patted his son's head, this little fellow's mouth can really speak.

The rice ball hummed arrogantly until he reached the clothing counter in the state-run shopping mall, and he even shouted that he wanted to buy really good.

But Su Xiaoxiao insisted on buying only a white shirt and a pair of shoes for the wedding photo shoot. She bought all the remaining cloth tickets into cotton cloth and cotton, which was really good.

Even Hancheng couldn't help but ask her: "Why don't you buy it?"

The color of cotton is very single, but there are many fancy styles.

Su Xiaoxiao said: "It is indeed a chemical fiber cloth, which is airtight and does not absorb sweat. It will generate static electricity in winter. It is light, thin and durable, but cotton is a natural cloth, soft and comfortable. I think it is more important to be comfortable."

Hancheng nodded, he would also choose cotton.

The logistics department also gave Hancheng the bills needed for marriage, but if you buy a dragon and phoenix quilt, you need to stamp the marriage certificate, and there are also some special items for marriage, so after the certificate is completed, it will be returned. Gotta come.

It was impossible to buy this good meat, so Su Xiaoxiao changed her plan, put on her white shirt first, and then went to take a photo to get the certificate.

Su Xiaoxiao came out after changing into white clothes, and the rice ball widened her eyes: "Wow, Mom, you are so beautiful!"

Onigiri has always thought that his mother is a fairy, and after changing into white clothes, his mother is more in line with the image of a fairy in his mind!

After the bright-eyed and picturesque lesbian changed into a white shirt, the whole person looked more gentle. It was not the first time she had seen in Sujia Village with two braids tied with a red headband. The bright and smooth hair was scattered randomly, she reached out and pinned the hair on her cheeks to the roots of her ears, when she looked back, Li Wu smiled lightly without saying a word, her whole body was fresh and clean, like shedding one's body, exchanging one's bones. Generally, it's not because of the clothes, but the kind of temperament. Hancheng doesn't know how to describe it, but it's good-looking.

"It's beautiful." Hancheng praised sincerely.

Everyone likes to tie braids these days. Su Xiaoxiao has to work at home and doesn't know how to braid, so she always ties up her hair at will, and it is rare to put her hair down like this.

Su Xiaoxiao bent down and picked up Xiaodoubao.

Xiaodoubao touched her mother's hair, patted her two little hands against each other a few times, and imitated her father's voice: "Okay~ Look~~~"

Su Xiaoxiao kissed him: "Thank you Xiaodoubao for the compliment, let's go."

Hancheng held the cloth in one hand and the rice ball in the other. They put the things in the trunk of the car first. Hancheng took the bean bag from Su Xiaoxiao's hand, and Su Xiaoxiao held the rice ball. The family went into the photo studio cheerfully and optimistically.

Tall and handsome gay men in green military uniforms have a rare face of tolerance, sweet and sweet lesbians in white shirts have a natural smile, the two people sitting on the chairs straightened their backs and put their hands on their thighs, the cameraman said : "Looking at how sweet a lesbian smiles, gay men also smile."

Hancheng looked at the camera and smiled slightly. With the click of the shutter, a new wedding photo was released.

Although taking pictures is not cheap these days, but the opportunity is rare, Su Xiaoxiao proposed to take a photo with the cubs.

Hancheng was holding the rice ball, and Su Xiaoxiao was holding the Xiaodoubao, the same posture as before, except that there was an extra cub sitting on their lap.

It was the first time that the rice ball was photographed, but he was so happy that he even put on a very stinky pose.

The first family photo of a family of four was freshly released, and the photographer repeatedly praised their family for their good looks.

After leaving the photo studio, the family went straight to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

The Civil Affairs Bureau has received many newcomers, and many brought their children to collect certificates, but it is rare for a family to look so good-looking.

The smart child said "Mom" to the beautiful lesbian who was so white and glowing, and they got along so harmoniously that she was actually a stepmother.

The marriage process is very simple, but the marriage certificates of these years are very characteristic of the times, red and special, a bit like the kind of award certificate obtained in elementary school, but it is light red, with a big red peony flower printed in the middle, and several printed on the four sides. A big red "囍" character, the top is the chairman's quotations and the highest instructions, the middle is three big characters "marriage certificate", then the font size, the following is the name, age, date, issuing department, etc. All the information is filled in manually, and finally Stamped with red stamp.

Su Xiaoxiao thought it was novel, is this the marriage certificate? took it in hand and read it several times, and then realized that the marriage certificate at this time does not need to post the photo of the two of them, so the wedding photo is not a white photo? Also, the photos are not available so quickly, which is really silly.

But it is also good to keep a memory, and it is also a precious memory when you are old.

The rice ball was also clamoring to see it, but Hancheng took it and put it away: "You can't read it again, don't break it."

Onigiri disagreed: "I understand, my mother taught me a lot of words!"

Hancheng casually pointed at a word and asked him, "What word is this?"

Onigiri: "..." The cow was blown away, he couldn't understand it!

Su Xiaoxiao was overjoyed: "Okay, don't bully the cub, let's go eat first."

One person picked up a child. Hancheng took Su Xiaoxiao's hand and squeezed it lightly. He smiled deeply at Su Xiaoxiao, and Su Xiaoxiao raised a shallow pear vortex. Yes, Comrade Hancheng, we have become a legal husband and wife.

There was a small episode when I was eating at a state-run restaurant. The little rice ball actually disliked other people's food and said loudly, "It's not as delicious as my mother's cooking." The waiter even heard it and rolled his eyes at him. The whole family is dressed decently, and Hancheng is also wearing military uniforms, so he probably wants to kick the little fellow out.

After dinner, Xiaodoubao was sleepy, and Hancheng hugged him and let him sleep for a while.

The family hurried back to the state-run shopping mall with the marriage certificate and bought a big red dragon and phoenix quilt, a big red basin, and a dressing cabinet. If you have these at home, you don't need to buy them again. Su Xiaoxiao really wanted to add a high and low wardrobe. , but it's too big and the style doesn't look good, forget it.

This meat joint factory has nothing left, and only bought a little sausage and duck, better than nothing.

Then went to the non-staple food factory to buy a lot of things. The milk powder and malted milk essence of the cubs were replenished, and also bought a lot of various seasonings that cannot be found in the town, mung bean powder, potato powder, etc. In short, you can buy a little of the things you don’t need a ticket for. Naturally, there are all kinds of wedding candy and wedding cakes that can only be bought with a marriage certificate. It’s not easy to eat snacks these days, and there are not as many additives as in later generations, and they are all sincere. Su Xiaoxiao thought about buying more stuff and letting the cubs eat slowly.

There are not many gas tickets, so can still buy a few. It won't take a few days. These days, even if you have money and no tickets, you can't buy what you want, but Su Xiaoxiao is very worried.

"Don't worry, we'll go to the black market later." Hancheng comforted her.

Su Xiaoxiao patted his forehead, almost forgetting that there is such a good place.

Put things away, go as soon as you say it, and Hancheng will drive to the black market.

"Why are you so familiar?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.

As Hancheng parked the car, he said, "Everywhere Chen Aimin has been, no one in our department does not know."

Well, Dr. Chen is indeed a talker.

The black market in the city is not like the town. It only opens a little in the morning. The scale here is not small. There are many large and small stalls at the foot of the city wall. Hancheng arrived at the intersection in military uniform. If you find something wrong, Lu Hao immediately informs everyone to retreat.

A few people came out soon, maybe seeing Hancheng with his daughter-in-law and children, it didn't look like he was here to clean up, so he relaxed his vigilance.

Hancheng's military uniform was inconvenient to enter, so he waited at the intersection with Xiaodoubao in his arms. Su Xiaoxiao brought rice balls in. Hancheng told her not to go too far, so he bought it on the side, and his eyes never left her.

The little rice ball had never been to such a place, but he was so excited.

Su Xiaoxiao first bought some mung bean cakes, let the little cub eat one, and let him see if there was any oil for sale.

The little rice ball held her mother in one hand, ate the mung bean cake in the other, and looked around.

The little fellow was not afraid of life, and asked an uncle who was squatting in front: "Uncle, do you know where there is a place that sells oil? We don't have oil for cooking anymore."

Su Xiaoxiao: "..." What is this operation?

Su Xiaoxiao was about to say sorry for the inconvenience, but the child is ignorant.

As a result, the uncle looked at them a few times and said, "How many pounds do I have, come with me."

Su Xiaoxiao turned to Hancheng and made a follow him gesture, pulled the small rice ball and followed him into the opposite alley.

There are also residential buildings on both sides of the alley. The uncle's house is estimated to be here, but it didn't go very far. The uncle asked them to wait and took out the key from his pocket to open the door.

After a while, he took out a small can of oil. He looked at Su Xiaoxiao again, frowned and asked, "You didn't bring a can of oil yourself? What do you pack?"

Su Xiaoxiao then remembered that she had to bring her own containers to buy these things these days. She forgot to bring oil in her small oil can.

"Sorry for the inconvenience, I forgot to bring it. Or else, I bought your jar together, okay?" This is a lot of oil, and Su Xiaoxiao really didn't want to miss it.

Seeing that she was very gentle, the uncle said: "Well, you can put some deposit with me, and give it back to me next time you come."

Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself, is there a next time? Naturally agreed.

"Okay, then we have an appointment. I will buy it at this time next month. Can you keep it for me?"

The uncle is also a sincere person. He shook his head and said, "I dare not agree to this. Every household lacks this thing, and it is not available every month. It can only be first come, first served."

The small rice ball took out a piece of mung bean cake from Su Xiaoxiao's hand, tugged on the uncle's clothes, and handed it to him with his face raised, saying, "Uncle, I invite you to eat mung bean cake, and you will sell the oil to us next time. No? My mother's cooking is delicious, but it's not good without oil, next time we'll bring some delicious food for you to try, okay?"

Uncle: "..."

Su Xiaoxiao: "..." Is it the social bullshit she's heard about in her previous life? She is so small that she is better than her!

What's even more amazing is that the uncle actually agreed: "You child, you are very young, let's do it, for your sake, I will give you three pounds next month, you still come at this time, being late is not acceptable."

The little rice ball nodded, smiling so hard that he could not see his teeth but his eyes: "Well, thank you uncle, we will definitely bring you something delicious! Uncle, do you know where to buy meat? We haven't eaten meat for a long time." I didn't eat it yesterday , is a long time right.

The uncle really pointed the place to the rice ball: "The second house I just came in, did you see a few hens in the front? They have live chickens and chickens."

The little rice ball barked: "Chicken, I haven't eaten chicken for a long time."

He raised his head again and asked Su Xiaoxiao: "Mom, can I eat a chicken leg?"

Su Xiaoxiao was convinced that this little cub was overwhelmed, and she said with her eyes bent, "Okay, thank you, uncle."

The little rice ball smiled and said, "Thank you, uncle."

He paid with one hand and delivered with the other. Before leaving, the uncle also went into the house to get some small snacks for the rice balls, saying that the rice balls would definitely be promising in the future.

A few minutes later, Su Xiaoxiao successfully bought two whole chickens.

When Su Xiaoxiao appeared at the entrance of the alley with chicken in one hand, oil in the other, and a small rice ball full of snacks in both hands, Hancheng couldn't wait to come in.

"Why so long?" He was still worried about what happened.

Su Xiaoxiao gave him the oil in her hand and shook her wrist: "Our son is amazing, you must bring him when you buy things in the future."

The little rice ball pulled the small bean bag and wanted to distribute the snacks to him: "Dad, these are all earned by me, am I good?"

Hancheng was confused.

Su Xiaoxiao gave a compliment on his forehead: "Our little rice ball is great, today's harvest is very rich, let's go home."

...
