1968: Started from breeding

Chapter 152 Ah Chen, No! You Have to Get Married
Put on your coat and walk into the main room.

At this time, under a kerosene lamp, the whole family sat together chatting.

But their hands were not idle. Almost everyone had a large basket in front of them, which contained a lot of corn kernels peeled. There was also a pile of peeled corn cobs next to each person.

Even the second sister-in-law who was pregnant and Jiang Li had a lot of peeled corn cobs next to them.

It’s just that it’s obvious that they didn’t do as much as the others.

After seeing Su Wenchen walk in.

Su's mother was the first to ask with concern.

"Youngest, you're awake. Are you hungry? I've left some food for you in the pot!"

Su Wenchen touched his belly.

"I'm a little hungry!"

After Su Wenchen opened the pot, he found the familiar cornmeal steamed buns and a bowl of stewed potatoes.

Twitching the corner of his mouth.

"Mom, I thought you would treat me well after I came back and kill a chicken for me."

For Su Wenchen, the food outside is indeed better than at home.

At least you don't have to eat stewed potatoes every day.

Su's mother gave him an unpleasant look.

"You only know how to eat chicken every day. Do you think chicken falls from the sky?"

Su Wenchen waved his hand.

"It didn't fall from the sky. I raised it. Oh, and I brought something for you all!"

Then he walked into the house and took out a large package.

"Sister-in-law, this is the silk scarf you asked me to bring, and the vanishing cream. It's two dollars and two cents in total. I'll give you the change later."

"This box of White Rabbit is also for Shitou, but I didn't give it to him during the day because I was afraid he would eat it all in the afternoon. You can take it back too!"

As for Su's mother, she was surprised to hear that her sister-in-law Li Xiaohe was actually buying some kind of vanishing cream.

He complained a little directly.

"Old man, you really don't know how to live. Why are you still buying vanishing cream when you are so old? The clam oil from the supply and marketing cooperative is not good enough for you, right?"

When the eldest sister-in-law heard what Su's mother said, she did not refute. She had learned from Su Wenchen that if she didn't want to listen, she would just ignore it.

Because for Su's mother, if you don't respond, she will nag for a few words at most and then stop.

If I respond, there will be no end to it.

So she happily took the plastic box of vanishing cream from Su Wenchen.

Especially after opening it, a unique fragrance fills the entire place.

After sniffing it carefully, he looked at Su Wenchen with joy and said.

"Youngest, thank you sister-in-law! Forget about the White Rabbit, that candy is precious, it would be a waste if it was eaten by Shitou."

"You should keep it for when someone comes and give it to them!"

Su Wenchen shook his head.

"I have some more here, just take it!"

When Su's mother saw that Li Xiaohe ignored her, she looked at Su Wen Zhang unhappily.

"Boss, you don't even care about your wife. You just spend money recklessly. It's not enough to use clam oil, but you also bought Shanghai-made vanishing cream."

When Su Wen Zhang heard this, he looked at his mother a little unhappy.

"Mom, that's enough. It's not much money, and it's all Xiaomei's own salary. Plus, it's not easy for the youngest to go to Shanghai. Do you think it's worth it?"

Father Su also glanced at his wife.

"Okay, boss, you know your limits. We've already split up the family business, why are you meddling in other people's business? I didn't spend any of your money."

Su's mother saw that no one in the family supported her.

"Humph, I'm learning how to be generous from you old man. You'll suffer from him in the future."

Su Wenchen continued to take things out.

"Second sister-in-law, these are five packs of milk powder. That's all you can buy. This stuff is hard to buy in Shanghai, so I asked a friend to help me buy it."

"Five yuan a bag. I exchanged the milk powder tickets with my friend. They are three yuan each. I'll give you the tickets."

Su Wenchen was able to buy so much milk powder only with the help of Zhang Qianjin.

This stuff is hard to buy nowadays even in big cities. In fact, milk is even rarer than meat in this day and age.

After hearing what Su Wenchen said.

The second brother, Su Wenlie, immediately took the milk powder happily.

"Youngest, I won't say much about thanking you. Just talk to me if you have anything to say next time."

For Su Wenlie, with these five packets of milk powder, he basically doesn't have to worry about his son's food.

After all, during this period, milk powder is generally a supplementary nutritional product, and children mainly rely on breast milk.

Su Wenchen smiled and nodded.

"Brother, you are too polite. Here, this milk powder bottle is my gift to my unborn nephew."

As he said this, he took out a best-selling glass milk bottle in the shape of a dove of peace.

"Youngest, you are so thoughtful. I forgot I needed a bottle!"

But Su's mother thought it was unnecessary.

"Why use a bottle? Can't you just feed him little by little with a spoon? That's how we got here."

Su Wenchen disagreed.

"Mom, now that we have the conditions, there's no need to keep using traditional methods. Children are different from adults. What if they choke?"

"Don't worry about that."

"I bought something for you too. I'll find it for you!"

Su's mother said with a wooden face.

"No, I don't want it!"

Su Wenchen looked at his mother with a smile.

"That's too late. If you want to return the goods, you have to go to Shanghai. The round-trip fare is 60 yuan. But, Mom, you can return it if you want."

Hearing Su Wenchen say this, Su's mother fell silent for a moment.

After all, spending so much money to return the goods to the Shanghai Stock Exchange means you have too much money, right?
"Mom, this big box is Angong Niuhuang Pills. You should also keep the two jars of honey. There are ten pills in Angong Niuhuang Pills. Keep them in case of emergency."

"This thing is very effective in treating febrile diseases such as stroke, coma, and convulsions in children."

Su Wenchen knew that the Angong Niuhuang Pills of this era were still very effective.

After all, the medicinal materials we use now are rhinoceros horns, natural bezoars, natural musk and other materials, which are completely different from the buffalo horns used later.

Hearing Su Wenchen say this, Su's mother still said.

"It's a waste of money. Your father and I are old enough that we can't get used to drinking something as sweet as honey."

"Take it back with you. You and Li Yatou can each drink one can!"

However, despite saying this, the smile on Su's mother's face did not diminish at all.

Su Wenchen waved his hand.

"I still have it over there, so don't worry about me. I can't let myself suffer any more!"

After hearing what Su Wenchen said, Su's mother also knew what kind of person her younger son was.

Everyone would put themselves in a difficult position, except him.

After everything was divided, Father Su finally thought it was his turn.

But I saw Su Wenchen tidying up and folding the empty package and putting it aside.

?

Is that it?
What about my stuff?

Father Su looked at Su Wenchen eagerly.

"Youngest, is that all?"

"You didn't forget anything else?"

Su Wenchen blinked and slapped his forehead instantly.

“I definitely forgot!”

Then he turned to Jiang Li and said.

"Ali, I put your things in my room. Come on, I'll take you to my room and give them to you."

As he said that, he pulled Jiang Li up and walked into the house.

Father Su was a little dumbfounded.

No.

What do you mean?
Not mine?
Do I still want this damn son?

Didn't you say you would bring it to me that day? It turns out that the good wine produced in Shanghai that I had been dreaming of was all fake!
Su's father was very angry, but Su's mother was very happy.

"What's that expression on your face, old man? Didn't your son bring two jars of honey?"

"We each have a can!"

Hearing what Su's mother said, Su's father snorted angrily.

"Who wants to drink those sweet things? Just drink them by yourself!"

But Su's mother looked very happy.

"You old man, drink it or not, just drink your horse urine!"

Su Wenchen pulled Jiang Li up.

Walk to Su's father's side.

"Dad, the things are in my room. Otherwise, I'm afraid that if you take them out, my mom will throw them outside for you."

"When you feel hungry, just go to my room and get it yourself."

As he said this, he took Jiang Li's hand and walked into the house.

Behind him, the corners of Su's father's mouth suddenly cracked and his eyes narrowed into slits.

My hands now have more strength to peel corn kernels.

Ok.

This son was not raised in vain, he still depends on me.

hiss--!
I don't know what the wine in Shanghai tastes like. He has never tasted it before. Su's mother looked at Su's father with a big grin and said unhappily.

"You old man, you look like you've eaten bee shit. Just drink it. When you have a stroke, the Niuhuang Pills are just for you."

"Hey, you old woman, can't you wish me well every day?"

After Su Wenchen pulled Jiang Li back to the house.

The other two families had no interest in shelling the corn kernels.

After saying something to the two elders, they all stood up, took their things and prepared to go back to the house.

Su's mother watched for a moment, and then everyone dispersed.

"Hmph, you guys don't know how to live. It's all your fault that you went back so early. You can earn more work points by peeling one more stick."

Father Su felt quite satisfied in his heart. His sons were all promising and had no major bad habits.

"Okay, my children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, why are you worrying so much about it?"

"And I'm telling you, don't find fault with your daughter-in-law in the future, or we'll both suffer in the future."

"When you are old, you still expect your son to take care of you every day!"

"Have you forgotten the old hag from the old Ge family in our brigade? How cruelly did she torture her? She made her daughter-in-law kneel under the bed to serve her in the freezing cold weather, and she couldn't even eat at the table in private."

"They either beat or scold me at will!"

"Look, you can't move anymore. What will happen if you fall into the hands of your daughter-in-law? You want to try it yourself?"

Hearing her husband say this, Su's mother shuddered.

Because the old hag that Su's father was talking about was a famous evil woman in their generation.

The country had not yet been established at that time. She came here to escape famine, and the other party wanted to buy her as a daughter-in-law.

But in the end, he didn't choose her and chose someone who seemed more diligent and more capable.

Otherwise, she felt a chill down her spine just thinking about what would happen.

And now the daughter-in-law of the old Ge family is about the same age as I am now.

The other party seemed to be repeating her mother-in-law's old ways. She just couldn't stand her daughter-in-law and made the house a mess every day.

But there is one good thing now. At least the brigade has a women's director to support it, and the only thing they can do is to ask their daughter-in-law to do more work.

Such humiliating things as kneeling and serving before the founding of the People's Republic of China are absolutely not allowed to happen.

At least their brigade’s management is quite strict.

Thinking of this, although Su's mother felt that she was not a dignified mother-in-law, she thought about the fate of that old hag who had maggots on her dying bed and no one cared about her.

I still think that being powerful or not is not that important.

"Old man, you are right. I will not pick on the eldest and the second son for their faults in the future."

Father Su glanced at him.

"Don't pick on the third family either!"

"You're just talking nonsense. The third brother's family is a government official. How dare I pick on them?"

"Hey, you old woman are quite sensible."

"Nonsense, do you think I'm stupid?"

"Well, I'm not stupid, but I'm not that smart either."

But for Su's father, although his wife is not smart and has many shortcomings, she listens to advice, and that is enough for him.

same time.

In Su Wenchen's room.

A dim kerosene lamp illuminated the entire room.

Jiang Li looked at the clothes in front of her. Although she was happy in her heart, she complained.

"Achen, why did you buy such expensive clothes?"

"I've seen this kind of Dacron fabric in the Beijing Department Store. Not only do you need a cloth coupon, but a shirt alone costs fifteen yuan! Your suit would cost thirty yuan, not counting the cloth coupons!"

"You've wasted your money again!"

Obviously, at that time, Dacron was absolutely high-end clothing, and it was not something that everyone could afford like it is now.

At that time, the average worker in the city earned only about thirty yuan a month.

A set of clothes costs one month's salary, which is definitely something most workers cannot afford.

Basically, those who can afford it now are leading cadres or military cadres, but even they would feel very painful if they bought one.

Su Wenchen heard Jiang Li's words, but spoke seriously.

"I'm willing to spend money on you. Why don't you try it on and see if it fits you?"

Jiang Li nodded.

"Okay, I'll go back and change it and show you."

Su Wenchen grabbed the other person's hand and begged.

"No, just change here. There's no one here, and they're all coats."

Jiang Li opened her eyes wide and looked at Su Wenchen.

"Ah! Change here? Aren't you here?"

Su Wenchen patted his chest.

"Don't worry, I'll close my eyes and promise not to look!"

Hearing this, Jiang Li looked at Su Wenchen unhappily.

I'd be surprised if I believed you.

But after all, it was just an outer shirt. She had been with Su Wenchen for so long that she was no longer so shy in private.

"Okay, close your eyes!"

Su Wenchen immediately nodded repeatedly.

"Mmmmm, I covered it with my hand!"

As he said this, he immediately covered his eyes with his big hands.

But for some reason, his fingers just wouldn't close together.

Jiang Li naturally knew Su Wenchen's little thoughts, but she didn't care and slowly took off her shirt.

Su Wenchen looked through his fingers, seeing the thin underwear and winding curves.

He swallowed hard.

next moment.

A shirt covered it.

"Hey, hey, hey, why are you throwing your clothes around?"

As he said that, he quickly took off the shirt, but unfortunately Jiang Li had already put on the Dacron shirt and turned around.

Looking at Jiang Li wearing a white loose shirt under the dim light.

Su Wenchen swallowed, couldn't help but walked over and slowly hugged the other person from behind.

Jiang Li didn't struggle because she was planning to give him a sweet treat.

"Ali!"

"?"

"I like you!"

As the two kissed, Su Wenchen's hands became more and more restless.

When his hands were no longer satisfied with the upper part, they began to move downstream to touch the restricted area.

moment.

Jiang Li immediately came to her senses and grabbed Su Wenchen's hand.

"Achen, no! We have to get married first."

Su Wenchen also woke up in an instant.

"I'm going to wash my hair!"

As he said this, he ran outside and poured a basin of cold water over him.

Su Wenchen finally realized the horror of desire.

At first, he really didn't have that idea, but when he was in that environment and his desire was aroused.

If Jiang Li hadn't stopped herself at the last moment, Su Wenchen would have found himself completely unable to control his desires. This was the first time he experienced the feeling of losing control.

For Su Wenchen, the path he is taking now will not allow him to control his own desires.

It is possible that others may take advantage of the situation and control you.

Su Wenchen looked at the dark sky above.

"Looks like I still need to practice!"

After taking a deep breath, Su Wenchen calmed down after returning and picked up a small box on the table.

After opening it, there were two Shanghai-listed Plum brand watches inside.

"That watch you brought from Beijing, I see you're still wearing it even though it's not working."

"I bought two pieces this time. Let's have one each. Come and I'll bring them to you."

As he said that, he picked up one of the ladies' bracelets and put it on Jiang Li.

Jiang Li looked at the box and saw that the watches placed inside were obviously of the same brand, but they were a couple's watch, one for men and one for women.

He looked at Su Wenchen with some emotion.

"Su Wenchen!"

"?What's wrong?"

"Why are you so good?"

Looking at Jiang Li at a close distance, Su Wenchen immediately said in an instant.

"I'm going to wash my hair again."

Jiang Li was in the room, covering her mouth and smiling as she looked at Su Wenchen's back.

But she was deeply moved.

In fact, at that time, if the other party insisted a little more, she would not refuse.

But the current Su Wenchen made her more satisfied.

Because she had seen many elders in the compound eventually fail because of this.
