Bringing Good Luck to your Husband in the ’70s

Chapter 7: Sell cakes

Views:

When Su Yue saw some people riding bicycles past her, she couldn't help but envy. She also wanted a bicycle so that she didn't have to rely on her legs to get there.

However, in this era, bicycles are very expensive. They cost more than two hundred yuan, and it is not enough to have money. Industrial tickets are also required, and industrial tickets are difficult to obtain, so there are very few car owners.

What's more, all her belongings are only a measly ten yuan, and she can't afford a single bicycle wheel.

Now is probably the poorest period of her life.

Wu Xiaoxiao and Mao Lin went to the supply and marketing agency to look at the fabrics, and Li Xiaoqing also planned to buy some personal items. Su Yue was afraid of delaying them, so she let them go first.

After they left, Su Yue rested on the spot for a while, and when she regained most of her strength, she stood up with the basket and walked to the supply and marketing agency.

She didn't plan to sell in the market, this method was still dangerous, she was going to go directly to the gate of the supply and marketing agency to quietly look for customers.

Su Yue stood and observed not far from the door of the supply and marketing cooperative. After observing for a long time, she saw a fashionably dressed woman in her thirties walking out, holding a can and oil paper bag in her hand. It looks like it's eating something.

This woman can see that the family is not short of money.

Su Yue's eyes lit up, she no longer hesitated, and went straight up to stop the woman.

When the woman looked suspiciously, Su Yue smiled slightly and asked in a low voice, "Sister, do you want to buy some chicken cakes? The chicken cakes I made myself are delicious and fragrant."

The woman originally thought that she was being stopped by someone to sell her own things again. She was impatient and was about to wave her hand and leave immediately as before, but she was attracted by the "chicken cake".

She hasn't heard of chicken cake yet.

Out of curiosity, the woman did not leave, but asked, "What chicken cake?"

Seeing that there was a show, Su Yue immediately opened a corner of her basket, revealing the golden cake inside, "Look at it, eldest sister, this is a chicken cake I made by myself. It's very delicious, eldest sister, you will know after you taste it."

Su Yue stuffed a piece for the eldest sister without saying a word, and the woman didn't hesitate to taste it, because it was so sweet that it smelled delicious.

The woman was taken aback by this entrance. She didn't expect that it smelled delicious and tasted even more delicious. She had never eaten such a delicious pastry.

This time the woman didn't hesitate at all, and asked directly, "Sister, how do you sell this chicken cake?"

Su Yue knew that the deal was done, and whispered: "Eldest sister, there are many people here, let's go to the alley over there and talk."

The woman nodded clearly, followed Su Yue and introduced herself as she walked, "My surname is Jiang, you can just call me Sister Jiang."

Su Yue called her sister Jiang with kindness, and when there was no one in the alley, she completely lifted her cover and said, "Sister Jiang, we made this at home, we can't buy it outside, just now If you taste it, I won't waste my time, how much do you think you need?"

"Five cents?" Sister Jiang was slightly surprised and wanted to say that it was too expensive, but when she remembered the taste, she felt that it was not too expensive. It was much more delicious than the cakes sold by the supply and marketing cooperative. You can't buy it, and a piece of it is a lot. It's better to buy this to give away than the stuff in the supply and marketing cooperative.

It just so happened that her family was going to prepare gifts to give away, and all the things in her hand were bought to give away.

Sister Jiang immediately looked at Su Yue's basket and said, "Big sister, I want all of your chicken cakes, but you have to give me something cheaper."

Su Yue was pleasantly surprised. She originally thought she would get three or four pieces at most, but she didn't expect that she would pack it all at once. It was really good, so she quickly packed the chicken cake, "Okay, Sister Jiang, I How about wiping all the zeros for you?"

Sister Jiang was also very happy with Su Yue's refreshment. The two of them just paid the money and the cakes, and the business was completed like this.

Before she left, Sister Jiang said to Su Yue, "Sister, my house is in the family building behind the textile factory. If you want to cook something delicious next time, bring it to me, I want it. "

Su Yue happily agreed.

Touching the money in her pocket, Su Yue simply wanted to sing a song. She sold this order for 3 yuan and 50 cents, and the cost was less than 50 cents. That is to say, she earned almost 3 yuan at a time.

Although three dollars sounds very rare in modern times, it may not be enough to buy a popsicle, but in the 1970s, that was a lot of money. The monthly salary of a factory worker that everyone envies is only about forty, which is equivalent to about one yuan a day, and three yuan is equivalent to three days' wages for a factory worker.

Su Yue's heart was so happy that she was happier than she made tens of millions a month in modern times.

After making money, Su Yue wanted to buy, buy, buy.

She went to Jishang, and spent money to buy five kilograms of rice from local farmers without a ticket, and bought fine noodles without a ticket. When she saw that there were beans that she grew at home, she also bought some mung beans and red beans.

Finally, she went to the supply and marketing agency to buy the seasonings and oils that are essential for cooking.

After a lot of buying and buying, all the money on her body was spent, and there was not a single ticket left.

But seeing the stuff in her hand full of dangdang, she didn't feel distressed anymore. Anyway, she could earn money without money.

When Li Xiaoqing and the others came back, they were shocked when they saw a lot of things in front of Su Yue. The last person helped her carry a little bit, and the four of them finally succeeded in helping her transport the things back to the village.

Back in the village, the first thing Su Yue did was to weigh out two kilograms of fine white flour, wrap the two pieces of chicken cakes she had left behind in greased paper, and take one piece and go to the country of Han Ai.

She is going to pay back the white noodles.

Arriving at the gate of Han Ai's country, this time the door was not closed, but was completely open, vaguely as if I could hear someone shouting loudly in the yard.

Su Yue got closer, and heard a woman's voice say angrily: "The Wang family is simply a black-hearted family! Snobbish eyes and black hearts, I was really blind before I fell in love with his daughter, if I had known this earlier My family is such a stinky virtue. Even if I kill me, I don't look down on her daughter. I really thought my daughter was a fairy, oh my! Seeing my family's patriotism was injured and felt that there was no future, I wanted to break off the marriage and find another high branch, how could it be so possible!"

A younger female voice beside her was persuading, "Mother, don't be angry, it's not worth being angry for such a family, our family can be regarded as seeing their Wang family clearly, and will definitely not interact with their family in the future."

"I've never seen such a snobbish family. Back then, they came to me every day to make peace with me. I saw that his family was so sincere that they agreed to this marriage. Now it's good. I saw that my family was injured and went home. I'm going to regret it, do you want to be embarrassed! I want to see what character their family can match for his daughter in the end!"

Su Yue stood outside the Han's yard and listened for a while, and then she probably understood what was going on. It should be that the family who was engaged to Han Aiguo saw that he was injured. Seeing that he had no future, he regretted it in his heart, so he came to withdraw from the marriage.

No wonder the old lady was so angry.

However, she was quite happy. If Han Aiguo didn't quit his relationship, how could she approach him

You can't do things like being a junior.

Seeing that the old lady's scolding dropped, Su Yue just straightened her clothes, stepped forward, knocked on the door, and shouted, "Is anyone home?"

All the voices in the yard stopped, everyone looked towards the door in unison, and when they saw Su Yue standing at the gate, they all showed surprised expressions.

The old lady Han asked aloud, "Are you Su Zhiqing who lives in the east?"

Su Yue nodded: "Aunt is me, is it convenient for you now?"

The old lady Han hurriedly restrained the anger on her face and greeted her, "Come in, come in, girl, what's the matter with you?"

Su Yue showed the old lady the flour in the basket, "Auntie, I came here a few days ago, but you were not at home at that time, and the elder brother was alone at home, so I borrowed some flour from the elder brother. I bought it at the fair this time, and I will return it to you.”

Of course the old lady Han knew who she was referring to as "big brother". A few days ago, Aiguo told her that there was an educated youth who came over to buy eggs and borrowed two kilograms of flour. A female educated youth with such a symbol.

This girl is the most beautiful girl in the entire Hanjia Village, no no no, the most beautiful girl in the entire commune.

Such a beautiful girl bought eggs and borrowed noodles from her boss, did the two of them talk a lot

Why didn't this stinky boy tell her clearly.

The old lady Han thought about it and thought about whether there was a possible problem between these two people. When she came back to her senses, she remembered that her boss was not what he used to be. Now, what is she thinking about now, even the daughter of the Wang family dislikes it. The eldest of his family, a girl with such a symbol is even more impossible.

Alas, I can't think about it anymore.

Thinking of this, the old lady's eyes dimmed, and with a strong smile she stretched out her hand to take the flour handed by Su Yue, and said politely: "Good girl, come in and drink some water, and if you need anything next time, just come to the aunt's house to borrow it. "

Su Yue looked around calmly, but did not see the figure of the man, suppressing her disappointment, she took out the oil paper bag and handed it to Mrs. Han, "Auntie, this is the chicken cake I made myself. I'll bring you two pieces to taste, and thank you for lending me the flour."

Although the old lady Han had never heard of the chicken cake, she knew what kind of cake it was. Cakes are rare, so she subconsciously refused, "Good girl, this is a good thing, take it back quickly, don't you just borrow some flour, no? worthy of thanks."

However, Su Yue just shoved the oiled paper bag into the old lady's hand, "Auntie, I made this myself, you can try it. If you don't accept it, I'll be embarrassed to come and trouble you if I don't need anything in the future. Just take it."

When Mrs. Han saw her say that, she was no longer polite, "Okay, okay, then the aunt will accept it. Come in with the aunt for a drink."

Su Yue waved her hand, "No aunt, I have to go back to do the laundry, so I won't drink the water, aunt, I'm leaving now."

After Su Yue finished speaking, she turned around and left, not planning to drink water here.

Han Aiguo didn't come out, and she couldn't see him even after drinking water. Let's talk about it next time.
