Chapter 178 Strange Transformation

Zhao Hongbing cocked his head and looked around. Sanya saw Si Ningning at the table over there, and quickly jumped off the chair and came over, "Sister!"

"Yeah." Si Ningning nodded and touched the top of her head again and again.

Huo Lang glanced sideways when he heard the movement, and saw that although Si Ningning had a peaceful smile on his face, the fatigue in his eyes was very obvious. He had been running from morning to night without stopping for a while. The little girl must be really tired.

.

Huo Lang withdrew his gaze, took out two stamped receipts from his pocket and handed them to Zhao Hongbing, and got straight to the point, "I have probably heard about borrowing cats from Academician Liang before. In order to avoid similar things from happening, the commune

We have established a document to protect these cats, and now these cats are members of the production team. If there are any human-related deaths or injuries, the commune will hold them accountable."

Zhao Hongbing frowned and pondered for a moment before speaking. Huo Lang continued: "The director of the commune said that we will benefit from bringing the cat, but there must be a guarantee from Academician Liang, otherwise don't borrow the cat in the future.

I guess she wouldn’t care for the animals if they were sick.”

Huo Lang was worried that Zhao Hongbing would blame Si Ningning for being troublesome, so when he explained, he did not say it was Si Ningning's idea, but blamed it entirely on the commune.

Anyway, as long as the stamp on the document is authentic, it doesn't matter what the process is. Zhao Hongbing will not go to the commune to verify it seriously.

Even if he goes, Li Dekun will give a reasonable explanation and will not involve Si Ningning at all.

Zhao Hongbing believed Huo Lang's words. He clapped his thigh with his big hand and said: "Okay, I will call all the members to discuss this matter tomorrow. I will never be like those wretches before who ate a cat."

If you want to send the skin back to someone else, isn't that just piercing someone's heart?"

"That's really not a fucking thing!"

Zhao Hongbing cursed several times, then opened the snakeskin bag and looked inside, "Although he is a beast, he is still a great hero for guarding the granary!"

Sanya heard the cat meowing and came over. Zhao Hongbing handed the sack into her hand and told her to watch it and don't let the cat escape.

Zhao Hongbing waved to Si Ningning and Huo Lang to sit down. Chen Lianmi had already put down the soles of her shoes and went to the kitchen to wash a bowl of tomatoes and spread them out for the two of them to eat.

Si Ningning quickly resisted, "Auntie, stop working so hard. To be honest, I'm a little tired after running around for a day. I'll go back as soon as I'm done."

Chen Lianmi let out an angry "tsk", then went to the kitchen to get a gourd gourd, put the tomatoes in the sea bowl into the gourd, and finally stuffed the heavy gourd gourd into Si Ningning's arms, "Then you take it back to eat, wait.

You can bring the ladle back to me when you get back to work tomorrow."

Si Ningning wanted to push it again, but when she saw Chen Lianmi's glaring expression, she swallowed the words as soon as they came to her lips and had no choice but to accept them.

During this gap, Zhao Hongbing had already read the content on the document and asked curiously: "Alang, did I read the word wrong? How do I understand that it says that this cat belongs to our production team and is not borrowed?

?”

"..."

"..."

Huo Lang and Si Ningning fell silent at the same time.

Since Huo Lang had helped smooth things over before, Si Ningning didn't want to trouble him anymore, so she confessed directly: "Uncle, I got this cat from Academician Liang. I originally planned to get one, but it happened to be

Academician Liang gave birth to a litter at her place, and it was not convenient for her to raise them, so I thought about it and brought them all back."

After a while, Si Ningning straightened up and continued: "Uncle, the rations for these cats are mine and I will pay for them. It will never take up the resources and rations of our production team."

The hall fell silent for a while, and Si Ningning looked at Zhao Hongbing seriously.

Previously, I only said that I would borrow "one" cat, and the feeding would only be from now until the end of the year. Now, not only are there two more cats than expected, but the feeding will continue from now until the three cats die naturally.

Hello.

Three cats may not be able to eat much, but they are afraid of being cared about.

Si Ningning simply assumed the rations of these cats and was ready to be scolded.

Unexpectedly, instead of being scolded, Zhao Hongbing laughed.

"Hahahahaha——"

Si Ningning said "hmm" and tilted her head blankly.

Zhao Hongbing laughed so hard that he almost lost his breath, and it was difficult to speak. Finally, it was Chen Lianmi who was standing beside him who spoke up, "Si Zhiqing, you take this matter too seriously."

"These cats look small now. In fact, they can catch mice on their own after only two days of feeding. Then they won't need to be fed anymore. And..."

Chen Lianmi sighed and looked at Si Ningning amusedly, "It would be better if the cat belongs to us. It will save us having to beg grandpa and sue grandma next year."

The implication is that they can't feed a few grains of food at all, and compared with the few grains of food they feed out, they will still benefit from being able to save the food in the entire granary.

"Ah, so that's it...then I'll be relieved!"

Si Ningning couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Chen Lianmi said made sense.

Probably because he had been running all day today, he was really tired. Si Ningning felt that his brain was almost unable to move.

Chen Lianmi also saw her tiredness, so she explained the matter in a short story. Zhao Hongbing promised to make the matter clear to the members, and handed one of the documents to Si Ningning, "Si Zhiqing, this cat is

You also get a copy of the receipt you brought back."

Si Ningning nodded and did not refuse.

In fact, there were three copies of the same document stamped with the same seal. Apart from the ones in her and Zhao Hongbing's hands, the commune also had one kept.

Instead of letting Zhao Hongbing and his wife send her off, Si Ningning winked at Huo Lang, who said nothing. After leaving the Zhao family, he honestly sent her back to the educated youth spot.

On the way, Si Ningning handed the folded receipt to Huo Lang, "I'll give this receipt to you. When you go to the county, take it to Academician Liang. She will feel more at ease after seeing it."

Si Ningning crossed the small ditch under the guidance of Huo Lang, paused for a while and then said: "When you go to the county, can you tell me in advance? I have something to bring to Academician Liang."

When Huo Lang thought about Academician Liang's current situation, he knew what Si Ningning was planning, "Do you want to help Academician Liang?"

Si Ningning nodded slightly, realizing that Huo Lang couldn't see her movements in the darkness. She said slowly, "Yes", "My current situation is also somewhat limited, and I can't give you much help, but you see...

There's a big harvest of radishes and cucumbers. I'll make a jar of pickles and bring the pickles over. Isn't it a little bit of a treat?"

This is quite reasonable. If someone were to give rice or money or tickets or something like that, Academician Liang would probably take it as an insult based on his temperament.

"Yeah." After thinking clearly, Huo Lang responded in a low voice and nodded in agreement, "I know."

Unknowingly, we have reached the side of the educated youth point house. Overall, we have done a lot of things today. Si Ningning is a little tired, but now he is standing in the wind, listening to the swaying and friction of bamboo leaves and the "squeaking" of small reptiles.

The sounds of "squeaking" and "sizzling" were heard, and the cool breeze with a hint of earthy breath was felt on the face. The tired and confused consciousness suddenly became more awake.

Si Ningning moved her fingertips, and the little hand held by Huo Lang scratched Huo Lang's palm like she was being naughty or naughty.

Her voice was slow and obviously unnaturally low, "Why don't you let go?"

It was as if Huo Lang realized something and loosened the little hand that was so hot that he held it.

"Go back!" Si Ningning said, walking towards the door of the Educated Youth Point.

In the darkness, one could only vaguely see the outline of a tall man standing there, and Huo Lang could not be clearly seen, but Si Ningning heard his voice clearly, "I'll watch you go in."

Deep and hoarse...

It's very magnetic, sounds good, and is very convincing, making people feel very at ease.

During this trip to Xixian County, something seemed to have changed, making Si Ningning feel embarrassed whenever she thought of Huo Lang standing behind him, watching her leave with burning eyes.

.

Si Ningning didn't dare to look back, so she speeded up her pace with this thought.

Si Ningning jumped across the doorstep and banged the door of the Educated Youth Point in the dark: "Shuhua, Shuhua? Are you asleep?"

"Hurry! Open the door quickly, Ning Ning is back!"

There was a vague conversation in the house, and soon there was the sound of the door bolt being pulled open. With a creaking sound, the door was opened from the inside, and Si Ningning glanced towards the side of the house.

A kerosene lamp was lit in the room, and she stood face to face in the gap where the halo of light poured in. Huo Lang could see her clearly, but she could not see Huo Lang clearly.

Without Si Ningning looking at her, Xu Shuhua directly pulled her into the house, "Why are you back so late?"

The door of the Educated Youth Point closed with a snap, and Huo Lang listened to the girls' suddenly lowered conversation, turned around and left in the shadow of the moon and stars.

On the other side, Si Ningning took off his kettle and bag, sat on the bed and took a breath, "Is there still water in the pot? I'm exhausted."

"Yes, I saw you didn't come back when I was having dinner. I thought you would be late, so I cooked a big pot to prepare it..." Song Xiaoyun said and stood up, "I didn't expect you to come back so late, the water must have been cold.

, I will burn another straw."

As she spoke, Song Xiaoyun knelt down and pulled out the basin that Si Ningning usually used for washing.

"No need, Xiaoyun, I can do it myself." Si Ningning hurriedly stopped her, but Song Xiaoyun didn't listen to her and ran away with the basin.

Si Ningning was a little confused.

Song Xiaoyun has a somewhat contradictory personality. She is sometimes close to her and sometimes distant from her. It is the first time that she is so enthusiastic like this.

Si Ningning was confused, one corner of Jiang Yue's mouth twitched, and asked her a few words: "Just that afternoon before, you mentioned something about your family, and she was like this."

"Hey, Xiaoyun's considerations may be a little different from ours, but she's not a disgusting person." Xu Shuhua also explained helplessly.

Si Ningning went through the words of the two people in his mind and roughly deduced the prototype of the evolution of the incident.

Perhaps it was her previous mention of "stepmother" and "stepsister" that resonated with Song Xiaoyun in a sense, and therefore re-evaluated the relationship with her.

And now Song Xiaoyun's actions are completely taking care of similar people who have experienced bad experiences?

However, Song Xiaoyun seemed to have deliberately ignored one thing, and that was Si Ningning's nourishing life that surpassed everyone else...

After all, it was just a guess, and Si Ningning did not dare to arbitrarily conclude that this was the case. Anyway, she would treat others how she wanted to get along, and she would treat others how others treated her. Good and bad relationships were all mutual.

Thinking about it, Si Ningning yawned, got up and went to the kitchen in the dark, "Xiaoyun, it's hot now, so there's no need to boil the water. Just warm it up a little."

"Ah, okay! Is this enough water?"

Si Ningning put her hand into the pot and said, "That's enough. It's enough for two baths."

Then he said: "It's so late, you should go back to your room and sleep first, I can do it myself."

"It's so dark, I'd better wait for you!"

Si Ningning didn't say anything more. After getting the water, she followed Song Xiaoyun back to the room.

Because he was not used to stripping off and washing up in front of so many people, Si Ningning put out the kerosene lamp, took a quick shower behind the door, put on his sleeping clothes and climbed into bed.

The water and basin are still placed behind the door, waiting to be poured out tomorrow.

"Ning Ning, what on earth did you go to the county to do today?"

Si Ningning was so tired that she vaguely heard someone asking, and she muttered in response: "Go to Academician Liang... and borrow a cat."

"What?"

He answered intermittently, while the other girls were confused and wanted to ask again. Si Ningning's breathing over there had become heavier, and it was obviously much heavier than usual.

Si Ningning has the best sleep appearance among the girls, and she also makes the least noises during her sleep. Xu Shuhua is on the bed next to hers. When she heard the noise, she couldn't help but sigh: "I'm so tired."

Not light."

"It's probably because the captain arranged some grueling work. It's definitely not a good thing anyway... She will definitely not be able to get up tomorrow morning." Jiang Yue stood up and looked around. Under the moonlight, she could vaguely see Si Ningning on the bed next to the window.

Silhouette of side lying.

Song Xiaoyun then suggested, "Shall we make breakfast? Ning Ning is not here today, Xu Shuhua is in charge of the spoon, so let me do it tomorrow!"

"Okay, I'll come the day after tomorrow."

It's not easy to get up early to cook every day, so it would be nice to let Si Ningning take it easy instead.

The girls reached a consensus with each other and soon fell asleep to the sounds of frogs and insects.

Because Xu Shuhua and the others took turns cooking, Si Ningning did relax for a few days.

In the past few days, in addition to the normal routine of work, Si Ningning would take a notebook with him every time he went out. When he was busy working in the pig pen or threshing floor, He Gu would hold this notebook.

Often at the same time, Hegu would be surrounded by more than a dozen little guys.

Just like this time, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, and Si Ningning had just wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand, when she heard the young sister-in-law calling her from one side, and she rushed to the other side of the threshing floor, tightening her sleeves.

Help spread the grain.

On the other side, under the shadow of the trees on the edge of the threshing floor, Hegu sat on an idle stone roller with a book in his hand.

Sanae and Sanya stood on his left and right respectively, while Zhou Xiaocui and others stood behind him with their heads raised, and more than ten pairs of eyes stared at the notebook in his hand.
