Chapter 168 Troublesome

Si Ningning picked up the simplest T-shirt and started.

Use small scissors to pick up the threads and remove them all the way. After all the threads have been removed, Si Ningning neatly spreads the one-piece clothes on the floor and pulls out a brand new book from the bottom of the bookshelf.

She lay on the desk and used a ruler to mark out the shape of the disassembled clothes.

After finishing the painting, Si Ningning went to measure the dimensions of each corner and wrote them down one by one in his notebook.

After finishing this work, Si Ningning picked up the disassembled fabric and laid it out on the sewing machine table according to the original wiring pattern.

Before re-routing, she carefully marked the turning direction arrows on the edge of the analytic diagram in the book to remind her to more clearly distinguish which side corresponds to which side when making clothes in the future, so as to avoid cuffs, or

The neckline is set crookedly, or it is extremely embarrassing.

T-shirts have a simple structure. When sewing and routing the fabric at first, Si Ningning would twist the fabric or experience stitch skipping.

In response to this situation, she took out the mobile phone she used to shoot the video, made adjustments again and again based on the video, and then dismantled the clothes and sewed them together twice. After that, she was basically able to get started.

Si Ningning felt satisfied and had a sense of accomplishment. She planned to try a more difficult gown again, but when she looked at the time on her phone, she saw that almost five hours had passed since she just watched the video.

Calculating this way, it means that almost two hours have passed outside, and the time should be almost six o'clock. The members are probably preparing to leave work.

Worried that the educated youth camp was looking for someone because of her delay in returning, Si Ningning had to put the matter aside for a while, drank another glass of water, left the villa, grabbed a few cucumbers and green peppers from the ground, and walked away.

Out of space.

Si Ningning ran back with her things in her arms. She ran into Jiang Yue and Song Xiaoyun when she reached the side of the educated youth spot.

"What have you been doing? Are you back at this hour?"

As Si Ningning expected, Jiang Yue and Song Xiaoyun were preparing to go to the team to find her.

"I came back a long time ago. I met my aunt who was picking vegetables on the way home and forced me to give these things...I didn't think about it, so I just took the things and left, so I just chatted with my aunt for a while." Si Ningning said very well.

Lower abdomen, showing the cucumbers and peppers in his arms to the two of them.

The aunts on the team were indeed enthusiastic. There had been other educated youths who had shown kindness but had been stuffed. Jiang Yue and Song Xiaoyun had no doubts at all.

After taking some of the weight from Si Ningning's arms, the three of them walked back. Song Xiaoyun looked at the cucumber in her hand and said, "It's this cucumber again!"

"What's wrong?" Si Ningning's eyes flashed with confusion.

"It's okay." Song Xiaoyun shook her head. Jiang Yue seemed to know what she wanted to say and spoke first: "Xiaoyun wants to say that this variety of cucumbers is more delicious, right?"

Song Xiaoyun nodded, and Jiang Yue said "hmm" and continued: "I also discovered that this variety of cucumbers does taste much better."

Although the cucumbers brought back by Song Shuhan and the others were large and thick, they were a bit astringent when eaten with the skin on. The skin was removed and the seeds in the middle were very large.

And despite their size, the water inside is really not as much as the small cucumbers Si Ningning brought back, and the texture is not crispy, but more of yeast dough.

Jiang Yue and the others thought it was a breed problem, but in fact it was not.

Materials were scarce in this era, and most of the time we didn’t have enough to eat. Cucumbers were not as sweet as other fruits. So the members planted cucumbers in their private plots. Most of them had simple ideas and wanted to wait for the cucumbers to grow bigger.

, pick it when you are older, it doesn’t matter if you are older.

As for the taste of the dough, it is entirely due to the recent hot weather and strong sun.

After chatting and crossing the threshold, Xu Shuhua poked her head out of the kitchen and listened to the noise, "You're back? The meal is ready, let's call everyone to eat!"

Song Xiaoyun went out to shout, and Si Ningning wanted to wash his hands. Xu Shuhua took a ladle of water and asked Si Ningning to catch it on the swill bucket. She slowly poured the water down, "There is still a lot of bone soup in the morning, so I'll put it in

After the soup was heated, I fried an eggplant...I think there is still more than half of the pork liver, will it go bad if I keep it tomorrow?"

"Is it supposed to be okay? If not, just put it in a bucket and drop it in the well. It's dark at night and others won't know about it and won't steal it in the dark."

"I think it's okay. I'll go after dinner soon." Xu Shuhua nodded.

Thinking of something, Si Ningning explained: "That pork liver belongs to us and Comrade Huo Lang. He left it here to cook for his younger brothers and sisters. Today I cut a small piece off and there is some left...

"

"Okay, I'll tell you all later." Xu Shuhua nodded knowingly and then mentioned another thing: "What happened in the afternoon? After you left, Mo Zhiqing came to see you again."

Mo Bei came to see her?

Si Ningning's hand that placed the pot lid paused slightly, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he didn't take it too seriously.

It’s not that I hate Mo Bei. As long as his character is okay, Si Ningning can get along with him no matter what.

And what should I say about the current situation?

Mo Bei probably wanted to keep a certain distance from her, and she also thought carefully that keeping a distance would be more beneficial to her.

Si Ningning also thought about it in her heart. She should be fine as usual, but all unnecessary contact can be completely avoided.

"Ning Ning?"

"Ah? Oh...it's not a big deal." Si Ningning came to his senses. It was hard to tell Xu Shuhuaming what happened, so he made an excuse casually, "He said my cooking was not good, but you know,

Everyone usually likes the food I cook... Anyway, I'm a little unhappy."

"..." Xu Shuhua's face wrinkled with doubt. Of course, she was not questioning Si Ningning, but Mo Bei.

Si Ningning's cooking skills were highly praised by everyone in the educated youth spot, and it was really delicious. The stewed bone soup was even more delicious than the piece of braised pork he had at the state-owned restaurant last time.

If Mo Bei could dislike this, what else could satisfy him?

Xu Shuhua sighed, and was successfully diverted by Si Ningning. In the end, she did not forget to comfort Si Ningning: "Forget it, don't think about these unhappy things, just clean up and eat!"

"Um."

After receiving the rice bag in the afternoon, Mo Bei sat at the door holding a book, apparently reading, but in fact he just squatted and waited for Si Ningning to come back.

The educated youth spot was surrounded by trees. When Si Ningning came back in the evening, the sky had already darkened. When Mo Bei went in to put down books, Si Ningning had already entered the house.

Afterwards, the two faced each other again. The table in the main room was already full of people, and Mo Bei couldn't find a chance to speak.

After dinner, I wanted to call Si Ningning out to talk, but every time I wanted to speak, someone would happen to call me away first.

After a trace of ink, the sky was completely dark, and it was inconvenient to ask Si Ningning to go out again. Mo Bei had to give up for the time being. His handsome face and sharp eyebrows were tightly knitted. Not only was his heart heavy, but his whole body seemed to be shrouded in a layer of oppressive darkness.

gas.

Mo Bei walked all the way back to the house, and Li Lingyuan didn't dare to breathe. On the contrary, Song Shuhan, with a slight smile on his lips, pushed up the frame of the mirror, looked at his nose and heart, and acted as a qualified bystander without saying a word.

A peaceful night passed. Si Ningning made breakfast early the next morning and boiled the water in the back pot. Considering that the educated youth took water to the fields to drink today and she did not need to deliver it, Si Ningning did not fill the pot.

Carrying the elephant trunk pot, she washed it by the well and picked some mint. When she returned to the house, she placed the pot by the stove. Si Ningning took a bowl with the mint tips and wrote a note on the bowl.

Down.

The general meaning is that when everyone gets up to eat, the temperature of the water in the back pot will be about the same. Just fill the pot yourself and put the mint in it.

After finishing these tasks, Si Ningning yawned and climbed into bed to catch up on some sleep.

The threshing floor is usually busy with spreading rice, grinding millet, and winnowing millet in the morning. Around noon and mid-afternoon, she goes out to feed the pigs in the pig pen at the normal time, and then the time is just right, so there is no need

Go out so early.

Because the assigned work schedules were different, Si Ningning rarely ate with everyone in the morning, which was fine at first. However, after what happened yesterday afternoon, the atmosphere at the dinner table this morning was obviously not right.

Li Lingyuan looked at the sweet potatoes while eating them, and insisted on telling what was wrong, but he couldn't.

It wasn't until after breakfast, when Xu Shuhua and the others filled their cups with water and carried them out, that Li Lingyuan asked about the seriousness of the matter.

Male and female educated youths do different jobs and are divided into two groups.

Li Lingyuan glanced at Mo Bei, who looked gloomy: "Boss Mo, have you made Si Zhiqing unhappy? Si Zhiqing didn't even cook last night, and today he asked us to bring our own water..."

Mo Bei lowered his eyelids and said nothing.

He knew that Si Ningning was angry, but he didn't know why Si Ningning was angry. Was it a misunderstanding or something?

I wanted to ask clearly, but could never find a chance.

Mo Bei was also troubled.

Working was too tiring at ordinary times, so Li Lingyuan took pleasure in eating every day. For him, every meal was like "opening a blind box", and he was looking forward to what weird and weird things Si Ningning could do.

Delicious dishes on top.

Si Ningning didn't cook last night, Xu Shuhua did.

Although it was Si Ningning who did it this morning, Li Lingyuan always felt that things were not that simple. He was worried that Si Ningning would really give up his job in the future, and his life would really hit the bottom.

Li Lingyuan wanted to say more, but looking at Mo Bei's unsightly expression, he swallowed back the words that came to his lips.

After pondering over it, Li Lingyuan turned into an emotional master and advised: "Boss Mo, if you like Si Zhiqing, just be more considerate? You always have a cold face, let alone Si Zhiqing, I'm so scared..."

"

As he spoke, Li Lingyuan crossed his shoulders and made a goosebumps-rubbing gesture, "Besides, it's you who likes Si Zhiqing, and it's not Si Zhiqing who likes you... You should be gentler when you speak, and don't let girls guess what you are doing.

thoughts."

When did he say he liked Si Ningning?

Mo Bei couldn't listen anymore and suddenly stopped and glanced at Li Lingyuan: "Nothing."

Between Mo Bei and Si Ningning, Li Lingyuan naturally favored Si Ningning for the sake of food.

Now he was no longer afraid of Mo Bei. He frowned like an old black cow and stamped his feet on the spot: "Look, look! It's just a look! You don't want me to say... Looking at someone is like trying to eat someone."

, Si Zhiqing will definitely be angry when he sees it."

Mo Bei looked a little at a loss and almost blurted out his explanation: "I didn't look at her like that."

"Then what did you look at Si Zhiqing? Or what did you say?"

"I..." Mo Bei couldn't help but think about it for a moment. Thinking of the situation at that time, his expression quickly turned cold again, and he walked past Li Lingyuan without saying a word.

"What's going on? Why didn't you say anything again?" Li Lingyuan was confused. No matter how he asked him, Mo Bei would not utter a single word.

How did Li Lingyuan know about Mo Bei's difficulties?

If you want to say something, how should you say it?

Said: "I told Si Ningning that Huo Lang was plotting against her and told her not to trust Huo Lang and to stay away from Huo Lang"?

Or: "I told Si Ningning not to believe Huo Lang, but to believe me"?

No matter which one it was, Mo Bei couldn't say a single word of such ridiculous words.

Thinking of something, Mo Bei stopped suddenly.

Li Lingyuan, who was following behind, didn't predict in advance. His nose hit the back of Mo Bei's head, and he screamed "Ouch!"

"What, what happened? Boss Mo? Why did you stop suddenly?" Li Lingyuan bowed down with tears in his eyes and muttered in his heart: Fortunately, it was him. If it were Song Shuhan, his glasses would probably be broken, and his eyes might be damaged by then.

Gotta go blind.

Mo Bei still didn't answer, but in the brief moment just now, he realized a problem and also had a new guess.

He felt that it was difficult to say a word in front of Li Lingyuan, but he said it to Si Ningning completely...

As for Si Ningning, was she angry because she misunderstood his words, or was it because...

She likes Huo Lang? And he said those things about Huo Lang? That's why she's angry?

Mo Bei's eyebrows unconsciously tightened, and the new speculation made him feel even more troublesome than the previous relationship.

In the middle of the morning, Si Ningning got up and went into the space to clean up. When he came out of the space, he brought out most of the pot of purslane.

The Educated Youth Spot usually doesn't open at noon, but in the past few days, Hegu and others are coming over for dinner, so they are an exception.

Purslane Si Ningning plans to mix a little at noon and save the rest until evening.

It was also because of what happened to Mo Bei yesterday that reminded her that the purslane she had promised Li Lingyuan had not yet been made.

I was washing myself and preparing to go out. As soon as I closed the door, He Gu came over.

Si Ningning quickly used the hemp rope to keep the door intact, beckoned and walked up the team with He Gu, "Why didn't Sanae come with you?"

"Uncle Hongbing said he is busy now and asked everyone to go to the threshing floor to catch sparrows. Sanmiao is at the threshing floor." Hegu said vaguely.

"So that's it." Si Ningning nodded, put his hand on the head of He Gu, and asked as he walked: "Do you want to eat candy?"

Hegu hesitated for a moment, covered his mouth with both hands and shook his head.

Si Ningning felt strange and squatted down to push away the grain and look at it with her little hands, "What's wrong? What are you hiding? Did you eat something delicious behind my back?"
