Portable space in the 60s

Chapter 173
Tang Bao still felt sorry for his man, so he went to find a bottle of white wine and a black tea flower cigarette in the box and handed them to him: "I saw it over there, so I just bought it, but smoking is not good, don't you Take two."

"Oh, good!" Gu Xingjin looked at her clear and bright smiling eyes with complicated emotions, and felt that the cigarettes and alcohol he took were heavy.

Gu Xingjin took advantage of the fact that he still had something to do, so he left the room, found a remote place, took out a cigarette, cut it open with a match, lit the cigarette, and let his chaotic thoughts slowly settle down.

He didn't understand how Tang Bao could conjure things out of thin air, but he didn't believe that Tang Bao was a bad person. Since he knew her, he felt that she was too soft-hearted.

Moreover, if someone pays attention to her, she will be in danger, and she will definitely be...

The more he thought about it, the more worried he was about her safety, and he was afraid that if he reminded her hastily, it would make her feel scared, or he would grow up with himself in the future and avoid him, which was really worrying.

Although Tang Bao didn't tell him the secret, it made him feel a little sour, but when he thought that it was a big secret after all, she spent too little time with him. Although she liked him, it might be because she was afraid Scared myself, maybe I don't know what to say...

Anyway, Gu Xingjin made an excuse for her himself, and got up to go outside to see what he wanted to buy.

……

Tang Bao thought that she was very careful about getting things out of the space, but started to tidy up this empty little house. She felt that Gu Xingjin was a man, so he must be careless, and would not know what was left in the house.

There are new red and white towels in the middle.

I put some seasonings and prunes, potatoes, beans, etc. in the kitchen.

I also soaked some dry goods from the Northwest, fungus, mushrooms, these are also a good dish.

Going to the room again, I put two white enamel jars with big red 囍 characters on the table, took out a small mirror and a small comb and put it on the side of the table, and picked up the comb to comb my bangs.

In fact, she really wanted to comb all her bangs up to reveal her smooth forehead, but Su Su said that her facial features were too beautiful like that, so it was better for her to keep a low profile.

When Gu Xingjin came in, he saw her combing her hair, stepped forward to take the comb and said, "I'll comb your hair."

"Okay!" Tang Bao didn't refuse, felt the man's big hand on the top of her hair, and rubbed it in a tricky manner. Amidst Tang Bao's complaints, he began to comb her hair very carefully.

Helplessly, his hands didn't cooperate with what he wanted to express at all. He usually shoots with perfect accuracy, but the braids tied up today are so frizzy that he can't bear to look at them, let alone braids.

"Okay, I'll do it myself." Tang Bao took the comb by himself, and quickly braided his full head of hair into a braid, turning around and smiling at him: "It's normal if you don't know how to do that. If you would, then I would be surprised in my heart, I am afraid that you have been courteous to others before!"

Gu Xingjin lowered his head and planted a kiss on her face, and said seriously: "I've only been nice to you in this life, and I'll comb it for you a few more times in the future, and you'll learn it."

It is said that serious men are the most handsome. His serious expression made Tang Bao almost lost in his affectionate eyes. She pushed him away with a little blushing, and whispered shyly: "I'll make you lunch."

"No, I'll cook for you." Just as Gu Xingjin finished speaking, he heard a knock on the door: "Is Company Commander Gu here?"

"Yes." Gu Xingjin responded, went out to open the door, said a few words to the people outside, then came back and said apologetically, "Honey, you eat by yourself at noon, I have to go out for a while, and I guess I won't be back until the afternoon; It was originally planned for us to cook dinner together, but now it seems that I can only work hard on you."

Tang Bao hurriedly said: "It's okay, you go and do your work, even if there are eight people in our family eating, I won't panic."

"Alright then, be careful, I'll ask Mrs. Zhao to come up and help later."

Before Tang Bao could say his refusal, he had strode out the door.

She didn't want to burn it alone, anyway, there was a lot of hot food in the space. After entering the space and eating enough, she went to bed and took a nap.

When Tang Bao woke up, the watch appeared in his hand with a thought. When he looked at the watch, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.

She got up quickly and started to make preparations for the treat.

They were not willing to give up coal, and the coal was sealed in the two stoves. Now that the stove is turned on, the fire will slowly rise.

One stove starts to stew mushrooms and pheasant, and the other stove starts to put oil for frying peanuts.

In order to prevent too much oily fume, she closed the door and opened the kitchen window and door, so that most of the oily smoke went out.

Nowadays, people don’t easily go to other people’s houses for dinner. Even if they smell this tangy aroma, they will hold their children. It’s better for them to come to the door easily.

After a while, Mrs. Zhao came in with a few wooden horse stools, and said with a smile: "Sister, I'll help you. If you have a job, just tell me to do it. Company Commander Gu asked me to tell you that it may be possible today." There will be a few more people, let you cook more meals."

"Oh, that's fine, please trouble sister-in-law."

Tang Bao was frying peanuts, so he didn't dare to be careless, for fear that it would be bad if it was overcooked.

When she filled up a lunch box full of peanuts, she saw Mrs. Zhao had brought another table, now three tables put together, surrounded by nearly twenty Maza, the empty kitchen is now a It was packed to the brim, and from this posture, one could tell that there would be many people coming here today.

"Sister-in-law, don't you ask me to move the table together." Tang Bao was a little embarrassed to let others run up and down, saw that her two daughters were not here, and hurriedly said, "Where are Xiuchun and Xiuping?"

Mrs. Zhao is also used to doing housework. She knew what to do when she saw the dishes in the kitchen. She began to peel the potatoes and said with a smile, "They are staying at home."

The main reason is that she is afraid that her daughter's greedy mouth will make Tang Bao unhappy, and she will appear to be taking advantage of herself.

"That won't work. The two children are so young. Go and bring them, sister-in-law." Seeing her rejecting with a smile, Tang Bao made a gesture to go out by himself: "Sister-in-law, if you don't go, then I will go. How much can the two children eat?" Besides, there are a lot of younger brothers and sisters in my family, I can't see them feeling empty now, let me see Xiuchun and Xiuping, I'm still happy."

Seeing the sincerity of what she said, Mrs. Zhao quickly got up and said, "Hey, then I'll have the cheek to bring them here."

She also feels sorry for her two daughters. To put it bluntly, she would rather not eat it herself, and let them eat better.

"Sister-in-law is outrageous when she says this. I wish they could accompany you. When you come, sister-in-law, lend me your bowls and chopsticks first." Seeing that she was going out, Tang Bao quickly closed the door and started to go out. Grab the vegetables so you don't have enough to wait.

When Mrs. Zhao came, she brought clean bowls and chopsticks in a washbasin, five carrots and a handful of celery, and said with a smile, "I planted this myself, so don't dislike it."

Xiuchun thoughtfully dragged her younger sister in, and obediently called out, "Auntie."

Xiuping also bit her finger, seeing that Tang Bao might have thought of the delicious candy, she smiled at her: "Auntie, I want some candy."

"Little sister, you can't beg for food." Xiuchun had the posture of a big sister, removed her finger from her mouth, frowned and reasoned with her: "If you are like this, my sister won't like you, and I won't take it with you next time." You're out."

"Sister, I'm good." Xiuping smiled flatteringly at her sister, then turned to look at Tang Bao with a smile: "Auntie, I don't want candy anymore."

After finishing speaking, he couldn't help swallowing.

Tang Bao saw that the cotton-padded clothes of the two thin children were all patched, but they were clean, and the little one was still wearing a bib. His heart softened, and he cut an apple in half and handed them to them, and said with a smile: " Okay, sit there obediently and eat some apples, and taste the saltiness of the dishes for aunt later, okay?"

"Okay." The two girls nodded with a smile.

Mrs. Zhao has already rolled up her sleeves and started washing celery. Seeing the smiles of her two daughters and Tang Bao's gentle and amiable attitude, her eyes turned red for no reason. She lowered her head and wiped it on her sleeves, and said in a very unpleasant way: "Sister, to tell you the truth, after I gave birth to two daughters, the doctor said that I would not be able to have another child. My father-in-law and mother-in-law said that the Zhao family cannot be closed down, forcing us to divorce, and not letting them go back...they still I came to the army to make trouble, and now many people are watching my jokes behind my back, and it has also caused their sisters to be said to have bad characters."

Tang Bao also understood in his heart that not to mention that some people prefer boys over girls now, even decades later, there will still be people who prefer boys over girls.

It can be said that this idea has existed for thousands of years, and it must exist in the next few hundred years.

Most of the men think that having a son has face, and giving birth to a daughter will correspondingly feel that they are being squeezed by others; also because China is a large agricultural country, doing farm work is a kind of physical activity, and women are obviously weaker than men in this aspect, so They all hope to have a son to help with farm work, not a daughter to help with food.

There is also the concept of raising a child to prevent old age. Raising a son will have someone to take care of me who cannot work, to provide for myself, and to send myself to the hospital as soon as possible when there is a disaster. The most important thing is It is to be able to send yourself to the end. Many traditional customs do not allow women to play, and the act of sending off the ancestors is also exclusive to men.

There is also the concept that girls are from other people's families. There is a saying called "the water thrown by a married daughter".

It is mainly due to the thousands of years of traditional habit of giving birth to children more expensive than giving birth to daughters.

The most important thing is the inheritance of the surname. There are three kinds of unfilial piety: no descendants are the greatest. This is a traditional old saying. The reason why it is so serious to have no descendants may be that one day we will all be old, and the only thing we can leave behind is the surname.

The surname of the next generation follows the father, and the mother's surname is followed in some very special circumstances, so for the growth of the family and the reproduction of offspring, it will also lead to patriarchy to a certain extent.

Even if it is said that it is a new society, advocating equality between men and women, and encouraging women to hold up half the sky, in fact, it is not possible to really change the old thinking overnight.

Tang Bao once sighed in his heart that he would be reincarnated. It was the luckiest thing in his life for him to meet parents who were so loving and not patriarchal like Tang Mingyuan and Su Su.

Hearing that she couldn't reproduce, Tang Bao felt that he had an occupational disease now, and subconsciously looked at her complexion. The eyebrows and eyes of the oval face were pretty, but the complexion was sallow, the skin was a bit rough, and the color of the lips was not rosy enough.

There are many reasons for her pale complexion, such as spleen deficiency, anemia, and most of them are caused by malnutrition and anemia. Tang Bao didn't feel the pulse for her, so he couldn't tell what the reason was. He smiled and said: "My family has several generations of Chinese medicine (and started Blow), if my mother is here, I can tell by looking at your face, I still lack a little bit, then I will feel your pulse and see what's going on with your body."

Zhao Dasou didn't care when he heard it, and responded with a smile: "That's a good relationship, by the way, how did you and Company Commander Gu meet? Let me tell you, we have a woman who is a little bit fond of your Company Commander Gu." I mean, you have to be more careful."

"Oh, what's the matter?" Tang Bao opened the pot, and the smell of mushrooms and chicken filled the room. She put two pieces of chicken legs into a small bowl, and put it in front of the sister who sniffed the aroma and swallowed. Wen Sheng said: "Can you taste the saltiness for Auntie?"

"Don't think I'm joking," Mrs. Zhao was overjoyed when she saw that she was so kind to her two daughters, and she was also really happy about Tang Bao. She glanced at no one outside, and whispered to Gu Xingjin Talk to Chen Manyue again.
