Traveling through the daily life of the 1970s

19

The next morning, before the sun came out, a thick fog enveloped the entire Qingshan Town. Looking out from the window, it was like a white veil, and even the walls of the yard were hazy.

When Lin Lin woke up, the sun had already come out. The fog was driven away by the sun, and traces of the fog were everywhere. Drops of water gathered beside the wellhead, and after they could not bear the gravity, they fell into the well water, causing ripples.

Today, we still have to continue cleaning the house. Lin Lin put on yesterday's dirty clothes and gently swept the roof with an extended big broom, while Qin Zeyang was splicing furniture in the room.

In the afternoon, they were almost done cleaning up. Lin Lin asked Qin Zeyang to change his dirty clothes and wash them together with her own clothes.

Qin Zeyang didn't know where to get a stove and a pot, but he happened to meet Grandpa Wu who was resting and watching his grandson downstairs.

"Uncle Wu" Qin Zeyang greeted him.

"Is it Teacher Qin? Have you moved in with your wife? I heard the sound of knocking in the yard yesterday." Grandpa Wu respected his grandson as a teacher. Since his grandson took Teacher Qin's class, he could help with the accounts at home, thanks to Teacher Qin.

"I have to thank Uncle Wu for introducing this house to me." Grandpa Wu waved his hand.

"It's okay, it's just a piece of cake. This family is also in a hurry to sell the house to see a doctor. It's all for the convenience of others."

"Grandpa Wu, do you know where to buy a stove? And a pot, there is nothing at home now, I can't even have a hot meal." Qin Zeyang thought that asking the locals should be rewarding.

"The stove is sold in the supply and marketing cooperative, but this pot may be a little difficult." Grandpa Wu also said the news he knew.

"A few years ago, everyone was smelting steel, and they took out all the pots at home to smelt steel. At that time, some families could not even have a hot meal. Now they are watching the pots closely. But if you ask the people inside the supply and marketing cooperative, they should know where to get them." Grandpa Wu saw his grandson fighting with the children next to him, and ran over quickly. "Teacher Qin, I won't talk to you anymore. Hey, brat, what are you doing, let my grandson go." Qin Zeyang asked and then went back to tell Lin Lin the news he had just heard. "Then I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to take a look, you go buy some coal." Lin Lin bought more than ten kilograms of melon seeds and wedding candies and took them to the supply and marketing cooperative. "Lin Lin, aren't you on vacation? Why are you back?" Xingzi asked after seeing him.

"I'm giving you wedding candies." Lin Lin opened the wedding candies in her hand and began to distribute wedding candies, melon seeds and peanuts to each counter.

"Lin Lin, what's the happy event?" someone asked next to her.

"My partner and I got the marriage certificate."

"Really? When did it happen? I haven't heard about it. You're really tight-lipped."

"What kind of fairy is worthy of our Lin Lin?"

Don't tell me, my girl is really a fairy, Lin Lin thought.

"Why didn't you invite us? Come and share in the joy."

"Lin Lin, you are doing great things without saying anything."

"I just got the marriage certificate and haven't held the wedding yet. The wedding will be held on the 5th of next month. Everyone come and get together." Lin Lin finished handing out candies.
