Su Dahai hadn't been happy for long when he heard Su Yian say: "Manager Liu, can I ask for less money and something else?"

Liu Jiefang was stunned for a moment and asked: "What do you want? If it's meat and vegetables, I can consider it if the quantity is small."

Su Yian said "embarrassingly": "I don't want vegetables, we have our own vegetable garden, and we have cabbage and spinach; I don't want meat, just have a full meal... I want to order cloth stamps or something, but the six-foot cloth stamps every year are not enough."

"

Liu Jiefang understood it and said that it was a six-foot piece of cloth. Even the needles and threads of underwear and underwear were made of cloth. Like Su Yian now, she is a woman at her best age, and there are several patches on her gray trousers. Her top is a green coat, on her elbows.

It was also worn until it turned white.

Su Dahai was even more shabbily dressed.

"There are some cloth tickets, not many... let's do this, you only have three feet, you can take it, I will help you inquire about it, and I will give it to you next time."

Three feet is fine. Su Yian accepted it and got six cents back.

After coming out of the hotel, Su Yian took Su Dahai to the supply and marketing cooperative.

The supply and marketing cooperative only needs one foot of cloth coupons for three feet of white cloth. Su Yian bought six feet and used two feet of cloth coupons for one dollar and 12 cents.

I also bought some needle threads, mainly floral threads.

With the few remaining cloth tickets, Su Yian bought three pairs of polyester socks, one pair for each member of the family.

I didn't pay attention to protecting my feet in my previous life, and I suffered from cracks in the back of my feet when I was a few years old.

There are a lot of good things in the supply and marketing cooperative, but the tickets and the money are too little, so we can only stare. Su Yian can't afford it under his current conditions, so the two of them didn't stay much longer and went out after shopping.

"Girl, why did you buy these white cloths? It would be great to save them to make clothes for you."

Su Dahai had no money, but when he had money, he was the first to give flowers to his daughter. She dressed up beautifully. His daughter was handsome, but her surname was Xie. She didn't know how to praise her, and treated his treasures like nothing.

"Dad, I'm useful."

Not only Su Dahai was curious, but Bai Hongmei also didn't understand. There were only a few feet of good-looking pieces to make clothes, and there wasn't much use for the thin white cloth.

"Mom, I want to embroider insoles with floral thread."

There has always been a tradition here of embroidering insoles as gifts, but most of them are given to sons-in-law when getting married, or to wealthy relatives.

The son-in-law gave a pair as a gift at that time, but now he is not worthy of it, and there are no rich relatives in the old Su family.

"Manager Liu is taking care of our business, so we have to show some expression, right? I don't have any rare things, so I'm just going to get a pair of insoles."

Bai Hongmei raised her hands in agreement, "It won't take so much."

"Mom, not much. What if Manager Liu likes it and my wife and children like it too? What if my friends like it too?"

"Yes, then let's take it easy and choose a good pattern."

You have to strive to like it at first sight.

After buying so many things this time, I still had more than nine yuan left, so Su Yian gave it to Bai Hongmei to keep.

After dinner, Bai Hongmei began to put on her coat, and Su Dahai went to the river embankment to cat, waiting until it got dark before going down to the river to catch fish.

It is estimated that after today, the Su family's selling of bean sprouts can no longer be hidden from anyone. Su Yian is going to go to the party secretary to say hello and put this matter out in the open.

Su Dayou's home is not far from here, just past four rows of houses.

The party secretary's wife is sweeping the yard. She is a very particular person. She puts a few chickens out during the day to lay eggs. She waits for the chickens to sleep before sweeping the yard, otherwise she will feel uncomfortable.

Su Yian pushed the door open and walked in, "Madam, is my uncle here?"

The party secretary's wife smiled and replied: "Here, everyone else has eaten, but he is the only one still licking the cat urine."

Country people, especially women, disparage liquor as cat urine because they don't like men drinking (spending money and causing trouble).

"I want to talk to you about something. Madam, I'm going into the house."

"Go ahead."

Su Dayou was guarding a plate of scallions with dipping sauce and was indeed drinking.

"uncle."

"It's Yi'an, why are you here?"

Su Yian placed the cement bag containing about two kilograms of bean sprouts on the table.

"What is it?"

Su Yian untied it and said, "Uncle, these are bean sprouts from my family."

"Bean sprouts are great. They can be used as rice and vegetables. But your aunt's craftsmanship is not good. Nine times out of ten, the sprouts will get damaged. I won't let her cause trouble now."

"As long as you can, why don't you give birth?"

The party secretary's wife finished sweeping the yard and entered the house.

"If I could do anything, what would I want you to do? Look good? The key is not that good-looking?"

The wife of the branch secretary grinded her teeth angrily, "This old black man doesn't deserve to be good-looking. I feel ashamed to marry you."

Despite the quarrels between the old couple, they actually have a pretty good relationship.

"Uncle, the bean sprouts are indeed produced by my own family. I gave birth to young and old, and they were all sold in the city."

Su Dayou immediately became serious, "Yi'an, I think you are too young to hold me accountable, so please stop it immediately. This is speculation, but it is illegal, you know?"

"Yes, you, a girl, must not do stupid things. If you do, you will have a bad reputation."

Su Dahai and his wife only had one child. In the 1960s and 1970s when there were often four or five children, it was still very distressing and had to be taken care of.

"Uncle and aunt, don't worry. My sale of bean sprouts is a normal purchase by a state-owned hotel. It is legal with a purchase certificate."

Su Yian took out the purchase certificate again.

Su Dayou felt relieved and said, "Just don't make mistakes."

Su Yian continued: "Sooner or later, someone will know that I sell bean sprouts, and think that I am speculating. If it comes to me, please help me explain."

Although there are many people with the surname Su in Sujia Village, there are still a lot of people who hate others and laugh at others, and don't like others' good deeds.

"Don't worry about this. If someone actually talks nonsense in front of me, I will definitely scold them. What's the use of their brains?"

Su Dayou was relatively fair in his work, and the members were very convinced and had a high prestige.

"Uncle, there is one more thing. I want to ask for your opinion. Selling tofu is not considered speculation, right?"

"In the past few years, it doesn't count anymore. It's just eaten by young and old men."

"Uncle, members can trade soybeans for tofu. I also want to trade soybeans for bean sprouts. Is that okay?"

"As long as I change in Sujia Village, I can guarantee that there will be no problems. If I go out to Sujia Village, it's hard to say."

"I will exchange it in the village to add food to the old and young men. Grandpa and aunt, you can help spread the word. One pound of soybeans will be exchanged for four pounds of bean sprouts, and two and a half soybeans will be exchanged for one pound."

"Okay."

After Su Yian left, the branch secretary's wife collected the bean sprouts, put them in a basin and filtered the water twice, so that they could still grow at night.

"Yi'an is a little girl. You have nothing to say. If you hadn't married Xie an educated youth, how much better would you have married a country girl? I married an educated youth and I got very angry."

Emotionally speaking, Su Yian is a member of the family, while the educated youth is an outsider.
