The year isn't the 80s! Su Yan, a base owner from 2048, dozed off while driving and woke up transmigrated to 1961. She became the infatuated, delicate, and ungrateful Su Yan who was leveraging ...
Su Yan thought the adults would have a cup of tea and play for a dozen minutes at most before leaving. But an hour passed, and no one left. The ground was littered with peanuts and sunflower seed shells, making her head ache.
It was Chinese New Year, and if it were any other day, she would definitely not take out these snacks to treat them. Otherwise, not only would the house be littered with garbage every day, but even her daughter's crib would be filled with people, and she would probably have to wash the mattress every two days.
When it was time for dinner, the three women got up and prepared to go back to cook. Su Yan brought out the dumpling filling from the room, and Lu Ting also prepared the vegetarian dumpling filling he had prepared.
The two of them sat at the dining table and slowly wrapped dumplings. Lu Yiming also came over to help. Seeing the mess in the house, Lu Yiming was annoyed and thought that if he had known it would be like this, he would not have opened the door.
The triplets were still immersed in the joy of buying a TV at home. They had no place to move because so many people came, but they still felt very proud.
These people all came for their TV. There were only a few TVs in the entire military compound. Their family finally bought a TV. What an honor it was.
The friends who usually play with them always envy them, saying that their clothes are very nice, without any patches, and there are always delicious food in their pockets.
In fact, they usually eat the fruits, candies, dried meat and preserved fruits that their mother gives them at home. Their mother said that if they take them out to eat, she will not buy them any next time.
What they can usually take out are just peanuts, fried beans, orchid beans and dried sweet potatoes. These snacks are actually very common, but most families only buy them to eat during the Chinese New Year.
In the summer, when the people selling popsicles and jelly come, they will immediately go back to their mother and her mother will definitely buy them some.
Not all parents are willing to spend those few cents, but their mothers are willing to buy them, and their friends envy them for having a generous and beautiful mother.
Now their parents have bought them a TV so that they can watch TV programs. How can they not be excited?
The triplets chatted with their friends while Lu Ting, Lu Yiming and Su Yan slowly started making dumplings. They made about 300 dumplings in half an hour.
The dumpling skins were gone, and Lu Ting saw that there was still more than half of the filling left, so he went to make another bowl of dough. After dinner, he would use the remaining filling to make some more buns and have them for breakfast the next morning.
"Sanwazi, it's time to eat!"
"Goudan, Yaya, come back for dinner!"
Suddenly, loud and low shouts were heard in the corridor. It turned out that they were calling their children to come back for dinner.
The three children left reluctantly, and the remaining adults felt embarrassed, so they quickly got up and took their children home, saying, "Let's go back and eat, and then we'll come back to watch TV."
"Captain, let's finish our meal and come over to watch TV. Please don't close the door!"
Lu Ting stood up and said okay with a smile. Su Yan had no choice but to accept her fate as her two children refused to leave.
Su Yan didn't care about so many things and cooked the dumplings first. When the dumplings were on the table, she saw that the child was still there, so she had to add two more pairs of chopsticks.
Lu Ting served a bowl of dumplings to each of the two children. Su Yan ate twelve and stopped eating. Shortly after she put down her bowl, everyone who had left came back.
Su Yan shook her head and sighed. "Alas... it seems this sanitation won't be done for the time being." Deciding to avoid seeing something, she returned to her room and entered the space. She went to the strawberry field and removed the rotten roots of the old strawberry plants, dividing them to prepare for new ones. Planting by division was much faster than replanting from seeds.
Although there are many children in the family, planting three acres of strawberries is actually enough for them to eat. Now she can't sell strawberries, and it would be a waste to plant so many. It would be better to plant more vegetables.
The only pity was that although she still had several kilograms of imported strawberry seeds such as Danxue, Zhangji, Hongyan, Fengxiang... in her warehouse, she didn't dare to take them out to plant.
She was afraid that even if she planted them, it would be difficult to take them out. Most domestically produced strawberries are 60% sweet and 40% sour, and not very big. If she took out some white and pink strawberries that had never been seen before, people would definitely be suspicious.
Su Yan threw the unwanted old strawberry plants into the pond to feed the fish. Looking at the newly planted strawberries, she smiled knowingly. She could eat strawberry smoothies in the summer. If she couldn't finish the strawberries, she could make jam or dried fruits.
Thinking of strawberries, Su Yan thought of blueberries again. But in her previous life, she had only planted four blueberry plants in flower pots in the villa yard. Eating blueberries is good for the eyes. It would be great if she could plant a few more plants. Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get any blueberry seedlings to grow.
Su Yan was busy until half past nine when she came out of the space and found that the children were all asleep. Lu Ting was mopping the floor in the living room with rotten clothes.
She walked over to Lu Ting and asked, "When did those people leave? What time did the children go to bed?"
"We left at nine o'clock, and the children had just gone to bed."
"Do you think they will be waiting at our door early tomorrow morning?"
Lu Ting was stunned and said awkwardly, "We're the only family in this building that bought a TV. I guess there will be more people coming tomorrow."
Su Yan held her forehead with her hand. If she came here every day, she would definitely have to clean the house several times a day. Fortunately, her house only had a cement floor painted green. If it was a wooden floor, it would be troublesome.
In the past, when only the children were at home, she would ask them to change into slippers when they entered the house. Now, when outsiders come in, they are allowed to step in even if their shoes are muddy.
There were no extra slippers at home, and Su Yan was embarrassed to ask them to take off their shoes before coming in. It was difficult to mop the floor during the day when there were many people around, otherwise it would get dirtier. At most, she would use a broom to sweep up the garbage, and then mop the floor at night when they went to bed.
The thought of more people coming tomorrow made Su Yan's head hurt. "The living room is so small, there's no place to stand today. If another group of people comes tomorrow, won't they just lie by the door and watch?"
