Idle Chats in the 60s

Jiang Mengxue dreamed that she would return to several decades ago. She decisively sold all her property and filled the warehouse space of the bracelet left by her grandmother.

When Gu Qingbe...

Chapter 379 Let’s Go to the City Together

There were people passing by with basins in their hands. They were going to the threshing ground to divide the pork.

The news that they caught two big wild boars in the mountains last night had already spread throughout the Feiyue Brigade this morning.

Gu Zhenxing also used a loudspeaker to inform everyone in the team that pork would be distributed today, so those who did not work at home went to wait early in the morning.

The Gu family saw that the photos had been taken and planned to go back and change into their old work clothes.

Those who go to work go to work, and those who don’t have to line up first to get the meat.

Knowing that Gu Qingbei and the others were leaving today and that they still had a lot of things to do, I didn't bother them any further.

After a while, Gu Zhenjiang drove a ox cart to take them to the commune. It would be easier to take some things with him with the ox cart.

Gu Qingbei held Mo Bao and kissed his little hands and little face.

Mobao also rarely cried or made a fuss, and just let his father hold him.

Jiang Mengxue was packing her luggage.

During this period of free time, she used a sewing machine to make several sets of clothes for Gu Qingbei, Luan Huiying and Gu Zhenhai.

It's all about spring, summer, autumn and winter. I wear military uniforms on the outside, but I have to make the shirts, autumn clothes, cotton vests and other things inside myself.

The shoes they wore were issued by the army, or leather shoes.

I rarely wear cloth shoes, so I never make them at home.

The food we eat is not something that can be preserved for a long time.

Dried meat, honey, soy milk powder, and some medicinal powder made by Jiang Mengxue.

Hemostatics, insect repellents, and snake repellents.

"It's time to eat. The dumplings are ready."

Li Cuiying got up early in the morning to make dumplings. She ate dumplings on the bus and noodles when she got off.

There are both boiled dumplings and steamed dumplings.

Chive and egg filling, pork and cabbage filling.

Jiang Mengxue doesn't like eating leeks or fatty meat.

However, the pig skin was not put in it, and Li Cuiying chopped the fat very finely, so Jiang Mengxue could not taste the greasiness of the fat.

It was almost eight o'clock when they finished eating, so they had to go to the station early, otherwise they would have to wait for at least two hours if they missed it.

Jiang Mengxue had nothing to do at home, so they didn't need to go and divide the meat.

Gu Zhenjiang and Li Cuiying’s household registration is not in the Feiyue Brigade.

Jiang Mengxue is the only one in the family who works as a doctor at the clinic and can get a share.

However, it was Gu Qingbei who led his men to hunt the wild boar yesterday, so there will probably be a lot of meat.

It’s enough for Li Cuiying to go home.

Jiang Mengxue planned to take the calligraphy to see Gu Qingbei and the others off.

If you don’t have time to come back at night, just stay in the city. There is everything there anyway.

She can just take the bus back by herself tomorrow.

Jiang Mengxue packed a set of spare clothes, as well as Mobao's clothes, diapers and milk powder.

I brought everything I could use.

She had no intention of breastfeeding outside.

Even if no one looks at her strangely, she herself is not used to it.

Fortunately, Mobao eats whatever you give him and is not picky at all.

Jiang Mengxue breastfeeds when she has time, and uses formula when she doesn’t.

The milk powder was bought by Luan Huiying, Li Cuiying and others, as well as some that she had prepared in her space before.

Not to mention Mo Bao himself, even if he gave birth to ten or eight more, it would be enough to feed him.

A layer of cloth was laid on the ox cart, and Jiang Mengxue and Luan Huiying sat on it.

Gu Qingbei drove the ox cart and set off.

"Well, luckily I took a lot of photos of calligraphy, I'll bring them back to show your dad later.

You don’t even know that before I came, he said every day at home that he didn’t know whether he would have a grandson or a granddaughter.

I wish I could come back right away, but I guess I’ll have to wait until you join the army to see me.

It’s been so many years, and there hasn’t been a single holiday.”

It was not until half a year after Grandma Gu Qingbei passed away many years ago that Gu Zhenhai had time to come back.

It's been so many years and there has never been a holiday.

If Jiang Mengxue didn't have time to take the child to the army, he might only be able to look at photos.

"Mobao, don't forget grandma. I'll send you some delicious food when I get back. I'll come back to see you as soon as I have a holiday."

Mo Bao had no idea what the other person was saying.

He wasn't even interested, his eyes were fixed on the scenery along the road.

Their brigade was not far from the commune, and it took more than half an hour to get there.

As luck would have it, as soon as they arrived at the station, they met Jiang Weizhuo who was also there with Li Hehua.

Jiang Weizhou still remembers Luan Huiying.

Although a little surprised, I still came forward to say hello.

Although Li Hehua was in a panic after being rescued that day.

But I still have an impression of Luan Huiying.

"Auntie, are you going to the county too?"

Luan Huiying didn't expect them to still remember her, so she smiled and replied, "We're going to the city train station. Are you going to the county?"

Jiang Weizhou said, "Yes, we got married in a hurry and didn't buy many things. I still have a holiday, so I'm going to the county to buy some things for my wife."

Jiang Weizhou's wife called out very naturally, but Li Hehua felt a little embarrassed, but she did not refute.

"That's right, live a good life after getting married. The past is in the past, and things will get better and better in the future."

A few people stood together and talked, and soon the car came.

First, tie the luggage bag to the roof of the car.

There was not enough room for people to stand in the carriage, let alone place to put things.

There are no overloading regulations yet.

No matter how many people there are, as long as they can squeeze in, we can bring as many as we want.

Sometimes Jiang Mengxue was scared when she saw the car shaking.

It seems that there are quite a lot of people on the bus today.

This car is for urban use.

Some cars specifically go to the county town, and there are quite a few people on those cars.

Taking a bus is not that troublesome nowadays where you have to wait at the bus stop.

Just wave your hand when you are standing by the road where the bus is passing by and the bus will stop.

Just tell the driver where you want to get off.

So the car stops and starts frequently while driving, which makes it easy to get carsick.

Jiang Mengxue sat by the window, where the place was less crowded.

Otherwise, she would rather walk to the city than be squeezed by others while holding the child.

The space in the middle of the car was filled with people, some holding the handles, and some cars brought their own benches.

Li Hehua and Jiang Weizhou were sitting in front of them.

It was obvious that this was Li Hehua's first time riding the bus. She looked very bad and seemed like she was about to vomit.

Jiang Mengxue took out a lemon candy from her pocket, patted Li Hehua in front of her and handed it to her.

Li Hehua was a little slow to react. She stared blankly at the candy in Jiang Mengxue's hand without reaching out to take it.

"Eating some candy will make you feel better. It only takes less than an hour to get to the county. It's quick."

Jiang Mengxue used to suffer from severe motion sickness.

Especially the smell of gasoline in the car, the sweat of people crowded together, and all kinds of other smells.

I feel like vomiting whenever I smell those messy smells.

But since she became pregnant and gave birth, her condition has improved.

Eating some cool candies or lozenges in the car will help with motion sickness.

Jiang Weizhou felt a little guilty. He forgot that it was Li Hehua's first time riding in a car and he didn't prepare motion sickness medicine in advance.

He had taken a bus to the county before, but he was not carsick, so he didn't expect this.

Seeing that Li Hehua didn't react, Jiang Mengxue still held the candy in her raised hand.

Jiang Weizhuo took it for Li Hehua.
