The next day.

Su Ye slept until noon. She saw Gu Xiangqian happily reading a book beside the bed. His face was full of freshness, as if he had taken a magic medicine and looked several years lighter. Su Ye wanted to kick him.

Gu Xiangqian noticed that she was awake, and he made a cup of milk and handed it to her, "Are you awake? Drink the milk and then go brush your teeth and wash your face."

Su Ye finished drinking the milk before she suppressed her hunger. When she saw the leftovers on the table, she suddenly remembered that she had invited everyone to dinner yesterday.

She held her forehead with her hand as if suffering from a headache.

Gu Xiangqian smiled and explained, "Professor Zhou and his team have already come. Tell them that you have caught a cold and need to rest. In addition, there are many things to prepare for the wedding banquet. I think it would be more appropriate to set it up a week later."

"And I called the newspaper this morning to let them know you were sick. Let's make an appointment another day."

Zhou Honghan, the director and others did not doubt it after hearing this. Su Ye came back yesterday with sweat all over her head and fatigue written all over her face. Everyone asked her with concern whether she had heatstroke.

Besides, the wedding banquet really needs to be prepared well. Not only do you need to buy a lot of things, but you also need to notify relatives and friends in advance. A week is quite tight. He Meimei personally delivered Su Ye's high school diploma.

Su Ye had a splitting headache, "You should wake me up."

Gu Xiangqian took something out of the drawer and handed it to Su Ye. Su Ye unfolded it and saw that it was his high school diploma.

He took out a bouquet of flowers from somewhere, gave it to Su Ye personally, and said, "Su Ye, happy graduation."

Su Ye looked at the high school diploma in her hand. The handwriting was very neat and beautiful. She recognized that it was written by the principal himself. With this diploma, Su Ye finally got rid of the ranks of "illiterate". She put away the high school diploma and joked: "It's not easy. I will also be a high school graduate in the future."

Thinking back to when she first came here, she was almost assigned to sweep the streets because she failed to graduate from elementary school. It makes her sad to think about it.

Gu Xiangqian said to Su Ye, "Pack up and eat something. We'll go to the department store to buy some things later."

He took out a number of colorful bills from the drawer and stuffed them into his leather wallet. He changed out of his pine green shirt, put on a shirt, combed his hair carefully, and stood with his long legs exposed, looking like the cool and abstinent male protagonist in a banned movie in Hong Kong.

At this time, Su Ye was too embarrassed to say that he had enough things, because there were still many things needed to hold a decent wedding.

Su Ye had a simple meal to fill her stomach, and Gu Xiangqian took her to the department store on his bicycle.

Gu Xiangqian prepared a dozen cloth coupons, and when he took them out, they were piled up in a thick pile, quite impressive. He had made a lot of clothes in the past, and the army would distribute clothes to soldiers every day. He couldn't spend the cloth coupons at all this time, so he saved all the extra cloth coupons and gave them to Su Ye.

He made one set of autumn and winter clothes and two sets of summer clothes for Su Ye. The summer clothes were long skirts that suited the student style. He originally wanted to make a Zhongshan suit for the autumn and winter clothes, but considering that Su Ye already had several Zhongshan suits, he did not make it.

Gu Xiangqian talked with the tailor for a long time and asked Su Ye to make a winter vest suit skirt. He explained: "You have beautiful legs, which are suitable for wearing skirts. Many women abroad wear this way. It won't go wrong to wear it in formal occasions."

Su Ye was very surprised at Gu Xiangqian's request. It turned out that this strict and cold man actually had some aesthetic taste.

She looked down at the fabrics Gu Xiangqian had chosen. They were all black, white and gray, not bright red or purple. This color really couldn't go wrong. In the 1960s, women were not prohibited from wearing skirts.

The young couple had three sets of clothes tailored in one go. It was the first time for the tailor to have such a generous customer. The processing fee for a summer dress was 3 yuan, and for a winter dress 5 yuan, which was not cheap considering the cloth coupons. One had to save up at least a whole set of cloth coupons to get so many.

He asked enthusiastically, "Are you two planning to get married?"

Gu Xiangqian replied with a smile: "Yes, she is going to college, and I made her a set of clothes before school starts."

As she was a prospective college student, the tailor was even more polite to Su Ye. He smiled and said, "College students are great. You must work hard to study and devote yourself to building socialism as the leaders said!"

Su Ye nodded and said with a smile: "It's time to build socialism well."

Gu Xiangqian went to a high-end goods store and bought a pair of leather shoes from Su Ye. This kind of in-demand goods is very expensive, about 40 yuan a pair. After Su Ye tried on the right shoes, he counted the money and handed it to the salesperson without blinking.

After buying the shoes, he took them and touched Su Ye's face and asked, "Are your feet sore? Can you walk?"

This kind of handsome, wealthy, gentle and considerate man is as rare as a national treasure here, causing the salesperson to look at Su Ye with envy.

Tsk tsk tsk, this is going to make single, unmarried girls jealous.

Su Ye glared at him and said, "If I can't walk, can you carry me?"

The man seemed to have not expected his wife to tease him like this. He touched his nose and coughed lightly: "You sit here, I'm going to go buy something."

Gu Xiangqian bought a bowl of iced drink with some Suye and took the receipt and money to browse other categories.

Su Ye drank the iced red bean soup slowly, feeling very comfortable with the coolness. Her physical fatigue was relieved by a large margin, and Gu Xiangqian was considerate and would definitely take care of her meticulously.

The salesperson next to them looked at the sweet newlyweds, who seemed to be fed without lunch. She sighed with envy: "Your husband treats you well! Where does he work?"

The mining bureau, power bureau, railway bureau, water conservancy bureau, textile factory, cooking oil factory, etc. nearby units seem to have no such outstanding young men. For a good man like this man, the female colleagues in the unit must have fought hard for him.

Su Ye said modestly: "Fortunately, he is a soldier."

The public has a very high favorable impression of soldiers at this time. When they heard that it was a soldier, they immediately showed respect, and looked at Su Ye with even more admiration. It was afternoon, and the salesman asked kindly: "Your partner may not be back for a while, sister-in-law, would you like to sit in the lounge for a while?"

Su Ye chatted with the salesperson for a while and began to feel sleepy. She barely slept last night. She readily agreed and went to the lounge to close her eyes.

Su Ye seemed to have a dream in a daze. The afternoon sun was bright and dazzling. She seemed to recall Gu Xiangqian smiling and leaning over to kiss her. When she opened her eyes again, she found that she had returned to the era of 2020, when information technology was developing rapidly.

Su Ye was awakened by a series of life-threatening calls. A soft female voice came from the phone:

"Su Bo, thank God you finally answered the phone. Last night you told me about the idea of using graphene to prepare semiconductor materials. It's a very nice idea. Can you sort out the materials in this regard and send them to my email?"

She found herself lying on the two-meter-wide bed in her own home, with a soft Simmons mattress beneath her and a soft and warm silk quilt covering her. It was nothing like the hard bed board in the staff compound, nor did it have those tacky big red Double Happiness characters.

Su Ye hung up the phone and looked carefully. The calendar on his phone was stuck on the night he left.

She... is back

Su Ye's mind was a mess and his heart was pounding. He opened his phone and frantically ordered takeout from restaurants that he usually didn't dare to order from.

Half an hour later, Australian lobster and ice cream cake from a three-star Michelin restaurant, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall from a private kitchen in a deep alley, braised lion head with Suzhou characteristics, crab roe dumplings... were delivered to the door one after another by the couriers and filled the table.

She is back

Su Ye was stunned for a long time before accepting this fact. At this moment, she didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed. She took a comfortable bath, opened the closet, and filled it with clothes. She didn't need to save money like the people in the 1960s.

Su Ye began to enjoy the food she hadn't eaten for a long time. The lobster meat was chewy, the soup of the crab roe dumplings was hot and fresh, the cake was fragrant and sweet... The satisfaction brought by the food was so pleasant that Su Ye was so moved that she almost shed tears.

She finished this hearty breakfast, blinked sleepily, and when she opened her eyes again the sunlight was so bright that she couldn't help but cover her eyes with her hands.

She stood in the simple, old department store, holding a bowl of unfinished red bean soup.

It was as if the luxurious meal just now was just a fleeting dream, but Su Ye touched her bloated belly, and the sweet taste of ice cream lingering in her mouth was still there, as if telling her that this was not a dream.

Is it cool or exciting? Congratulations to Teacher Su for having a luxurious meal.

I'm done. I always thought Teacher Su was a foot-picking girl, but I didn't expect that she was actually a beautiful girl.

The red words on the upper floor, you should quickly give a reward and a piece of pork belly to please Teacher Su. It’s not too late.

Am I the only one who heard this name, Su Bo? 666, kneel down, big boss

Su Ye heard the salesperson's delighted voice: "Look, she's out, isn't she? She's not a child, how could such a big person be lost? She might have just gone to the toilet."

Gu Xiangqian walked quickly towards Su Ye and said in a calm voice: "Where did you go just now? Weren't you feeling unwell?"

Gu Xiangqian's voice sounded relatively calm, but Su Ye could see that there was a hint of anxiety in his eyes that was not usually seen.

Su Ye couldn't explain the magical experience just now, so he had to change the subject and asked him: "I was just casually browsing just now, let me see what you bought?"

Fortunately, there was no camera here, and Su Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Xiangqian led Su Ye out of the department store, and the things he bought were neatly placed on the bicycle handlebars. Su Ye looked over and saw that he had bought quite a lot:

A radio, a pair of Double Happiness kettles, a receipt for a dressing table, sugar, milk powder, malted milk, imported fruit candies, toffee candies…

Gu Xiangqian said, "We should have bought a sewing machine, but you didn't buy it because you didn't know how to use it."

Nowadays, families that can afford it will usually give a sewing machine as a dowry when their daughter marries off, and the man will also give her a watch, a radio, and a bicycle, which is called "three turns and one sound", and being able to get these four items is a very honorable thing.

Except for the sewing machine that Su Ye didn't need, she also had a watch and a radio. Considering that Su Ye was going to school in September, Gu Xiangqian planned to buy her a bicycle when he went to Beijing.

Almost every woman in this era could sew clothes well, and promising girls could even make their own clothes. Su Ye was born in a peaceful and prosperous era, so she had no experience of sewing clothes. She was afraid that her clothes would be worn out before they were worn out.

Su Ye nodded and said with a smile: "It's right not to buy it. It's a waste of money. My craftsmanship is not as good as yours!"

She glanced at the wedding candies on the bicycle, the big hard bags, all of which were imported and in short supply. This kind of candy was a high-end product that did not require tickets to buy, but was very expensive.

The heavy wedding candy probably weighed five or six kilograms, and it must have cost a lot of money. Su Ye glanced at Gu Xiangqian again, "Why did you buy so much candy? It's a bit wasteful."

Gu Xiangqian smiled faintly, "Don't waste it. Anything you can't finish will be left for you."

Su Ye found that Gu Xiangqian's mouth was becoming sweeter and sweeter, as if he had eaten honey.

The woman who had spent a fortune on takeout half an hour ago was actually heartbroken because she got a ten-yuan wedding candy.

Kick over this bowl of cold dog food

Woohoo, in my mind, I still remember Teacher Su’s old appearance. Teacher Su, you are an arsonist of my heart.

Gu Xiangqian bought too many things, so the two had to get off the bike and walk back to the family compound. The things on the bike were obviously wedding supplies, including a brand new radio, heavy imported hard candies, a pair of rich and beautiful kettles, not to mention high-end leather shoes and handbags.

As Su Ye walked home, she received many envious looks.

In the past, everyone privately thought that Gu Xiangqian had a high salary, never spent money recklessly, and could save money. In addition, his ancestors had some savings. If he could marry her, he would definitely be well-off in the future. Su Ye had fallen into a blessed nest.

Others scrimped and saved to buy leather shoes with a month's salary, and carefully kept them and refused to wear them once, but Su Ye wore them to work every day; others were reluctant to buy high-end hard candies, but I heard that Gu Xiangqian bought a lot of them, and Su Ye ate them however she wanted... When she first came to the family compound, she was a complete rural girl, rustic and down and out. Now look at her, she is well-maintained and more fashionable than anyone else.

She must be loved by her husband a lot in normal times. Isn't this falling into a blessed nest

The neighbors in the family compound couldn't help but sigh: "We thought these two people were not suitable in any way before, but now we see that no one is more suitable than these two. Xiao Su is smart and kind. Gu Xiangqian's mother is shrewd for generations, and I didn't expect that she also has a good eye for choosing a wife."

The other nodded, "Although Xiao Su's family conditions are not very good, she is diligent and smart, and she even got into a prestigious university. If Xiang Qian had married a girl from our compound, they might not have gotten along well. I think Xiang Qian likes girls like Xiao Su. He can't hide his eyes, and he doesn't even let her carry bags."

When Yao Chunyu heard that Gu Xiangqian and Su Ye were going to have a wedding, the news hit her even harder than Su Ye's success in getting the top score in science.

Yao Chunyu always thought that these two people would gradually quarrel like their predecessors, Gu Xiangqian would become cold towards Su Ye, the two of them would appear estranged but actually get divorced in the end, and she only needed to gently add fuel to the fire and wait quietly for him to get divorced.

Who would have thought that this Su Ye was not the Su Ye she knew before! They were all deceived, and Gu Xiangqian was also deceived by her. The Su Ye of that generation had no milk candy, fruit candy, and even less a radio or a watch. The single-family house, and the general's wife in the future, these things should have belonged to her...

Yao Chunyu looked at Su Ye's sweet smiling face and suddenly thought of something.

After Su Ye returned home, he quickly opened the backstage of the live broadcast room to read the barrage and asked: What happened in the department store

The moment she appeared, the comments in the live broadcast room exploded. People who were usually so stingy and couldn't wait to give a penny of reward actually exploded with group after group of rewards.

Fans of the face came to check in, Teacher Su yyds, I was wrong before

Oh my god, I found that Mr. Su is very modest and never brags. He is simply a breath of fresh air.

Like, the three views follow the five senses, this is what a goddess looks like

Please stop flooding the screen with fans of good looks. I am so annoyed. Take my teacher Su away. I love you no matter what you look like.

Su Ye frowned and searched for some useful information using keywords.

Teacher Su needs to use up a lot of food every time he goes back**The barrage contains sensitive content and has been blocked**

I hope Teacher Su can return to his own world. Come on!

Su Ye had a bad feeling. She secretly thought that something was wrong and quickly opened her backstage. She was stunned. There were thousands of kilograms of flour and rice in the warehouse, but now only 428 kilograms were left. Su Ye's heart was throbbing with pain, and she almost fainted.

She was only back for half an hour, and nearly a thousand kilograms of food was gone

If I had known, I would not have ordered that takeaway. Su Ye's heart ached. At this time, even the Australian lobster, ice cream cake, Suzhou lion head, and crab roe dumplings were not fragrant. This meal must be the most luxurious meal Su Ye had ever eaten in his life. Every bite tasted like money.

If I return to my own world, I'm afraid that even tens of millions of tons of food won't be enough to sustain it, Su Ye thought to himself.

She looked back at the man who was busy in the kitchen. His back was broad and strong. His profile was focused on the meat in the bowl, stirring it gently with his chopsticks, as gently as if he was treating the most precious thing.

Su Ye glanced at Gu Xiangqian. She always felt that Gu Xiangqian might have found some clues. But after coming back, he never asked her what happened in the department store, and he didn't find anything unusual. Maybe he didn't find anything.

She breathed a sigh of relief.
