Chapter 191 Self Strategy

As soon as Jiang Yue saw Si Ningning, she asked: "Si Ningning, did you do this? Usually it's you who gets off work early. As soon as I thought about it, I knew it was you and it couldn't be anyone else."

Knowing that Jiang Yue's words were not malicious, Si Ningning raised the corners of her lips slightly and gave a half-truth explanation, "It's not me either... Comrade Huo Lang came here today, and I told him that Hegu and the others usually have nothing to do here.

Just for fun, I put this together and built this swing."

"Ah? It's for children?" Jiang Yue slid down from the swing, and finally held the rope of the swing and looked at it repeatedly, "This is for children. I have been swinging for a long time, so you won't be able to get pregnant, right?"

"

"Stop making a fuss. The rope is so thick, how can it be broken easily? Just relax and play." Si Ningning said with a smile.

Her words were like a magic needle that calmed the sea. After the three girls felt at ease, Song Xiaoyun pushed Jiang Yue and said, "You can just play. After you finish playing, let me try it too!"

The voices of the girls outside the door came intermittently. At first, he heard the words of welcome that Si Ningning was being sought after by several other girls. Mo Bei couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips. Until he heard the two-word name, Mo Bei smiled.

He pulled away, pursed his lips and rolled his eyes in a gesture that was very inconsistent with his temperament, then held the lunch box and started eating seriously.

Fine grains, plus noodles cooked in soy sauce made in old lanes in Beijing, and made by Si Ningning himself. He was angry, and Mo Bei was inexplicably proud.

Mo Bei thought: It's a pity that Educated Youth Point is a one-family house. If Educated Youth Point was next door to Chen's house, he might really take it out for a walk. It would be better to eat it one bite at a time in front of that man.

What’s so great about being able to send flowers? So what if Si Ningning accepts them?

Si Ningning made this for him.

The only one!

Mo Bei took a sip of noodles, and the stars in his cold and clear eyes flickered and flickered, bending at a speed visible to the naked eye. For a brief moment, it seemed as if a pool of gentle spring water had been poured into it.

How do you say something?

right!

Brain supplement makes people happy.

The wind started blowing in the evening, and by around 7 p.m., the sky was completely dark, and the wind was getting stronger. It blew the branches in front of the house and behind the house, and the bamboo forest made a "squeaking" sound, and occasionally there were bursts of "wow-wow" sounds.

"The wind sounds like crying, which sounds a bit scary.

Xu Shuhua closed the door, while Si Ningning closed the window sash that was shaking and beating randomly.

The windows were originally made of frosted glass, but they had been smashed long ago by the original owner.

The educated youths moved in when the weather was hot, and there were no renovations at all. It was as if it was closed now.

"I don't know how long this wind will blow. How can I sleep with such a big movement?" Song Xiaoyun sighed.

Jiang Yue followed up and said: "You are still worried about whether you can fall asleep. I am thinking now, is this house strong and will it collapse? Sigh... If the noise can't stop, I won't sleep anymore. I heard

If there is any sign, we will run away immediately."

While talking, Jiang Yue heard the movement of Si Ningning climbing onto the bed opposite, and immediately asked anxiously: "Why are you lying down just after I finished speaking?"

Si Ningning said helplessly: "Then what should we do? There is such a strong wind blowing into the house, and the kerosene lamp cannot be lit, so we can't just sit there stupidly, right?"

When Jiang Yue heard this, she couldn't find a point to refute. At this time, Si Ningning spoke again, but it was like a joke: "How about we all go to bed, why don't you sit down and shout if there is any movement?

Then we can run together."

"Pfft -" Xu Shuhua couldn't hold back and laughed at first. She stopped laughing for a while, pushed the washbasin under the bed, climbed onto the bed, and said: "I'm so tired during the day, so sleep cleanly... There are so many adobe houses on the team.

Don’t worry, we live in a brick house, so what else do we have to worry about?”

Jiang Yue was still in a stalemate, so Song Xiaoyun pushed her, "Okay, go to sleep! There are not many opportunities to lie down so early."

Everyone around her fell asleep one after another, and Jiang Yue stamped her feet and climbed into bed together.

Let’s talk about the other side, Zhao Hongbingjia:

After being interrupted by Zhao Zhuzhu at noon, Zhao Hongbing never had the chance to talk about Si Ningning because he was busy with work.

After taking a shower, Zhao Hongbing climbed into bed. He was wearing a white vest and lying on the bed with his hands on the back of his head. Listening to the howling wind outside, Zhao Hongbing looked at Chen Lianmi who was sitting by the bed soaking her feet and said, "What happened at noon?"

I haven’t finished speaking yet, I’m telling you, don’t think about the things you have and don’t have, do you hear me?”

"Oops!" Chen Lianmi spat impatiently, "I know, I know!"

Chen Lianmi was not happy to hear what Zhao Hongbing said.

Firstly, he felt that Zhao Hongbing was belittling his son, and secondly, because he had lost his interest in Si Ningning as his daughter-in-law, and he always felt a pity in his heart.

Such a good girl couldn't marry into their family, so she gave it to someone else for nothing. Thinking about it, Chen Lianmi felt like her heart was filled with panic, and even her teeth were throbbing in pain.

"well……"

"Why are you sighing? Why am I talking to you?"

Chen Lianmi turned her face to one side, rolled her eyes angrily, and said, "I just thought my son was gone and I didn't hear him. What did you say? Say it again."

Zhao Hongbing had no choice but to repeat what he just said: "I said that this is how our older generations will live in this life. The younger generations still have to study! I think Si Zhiqing is good, educated, good character, and can take care of children. I plan to

The team set up a classroom in Tengjianwu, and hired Si Zhiqing as a teacher to teach the young children in the team how to read."

Zhao Hongbing said a lot, but Chen Lianmi remained silent. He was stunned and lightly kicked Chen Lianmi in the back, "Why don't you say anything? Do you think this can be done?"

Chen Lianmi was not very educated, but she would never slack off when it came to business. She thought about it for a long time, wiped her feet, kicked the basin to the bottom of the bed, turned around and faced Zhao Hongbing, "The intention is good, but

Classes are suspended everywhere outside, how can the commune be willing? Is it still necessary to do it secretly? What if someone leaks the news and people find out? Then let alone how we live, the whole family will have to pay for it if one person is bad."

Zhao Hongbing frowned seriously, thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Rules are dead, people are alive, how can we delay a whole generation because of a trivial matter?"

The more he spoke, the more impassioned he became. Zhao Hongbing stood up, sat cross-legged, and patted his knees with his big hands, "Someone has to take the first step in this matter. Others don't dare because they don't have the guts. I, Zhao Hongbing, don't have any other abilities. I just have the whole body."

The courage!”

"Dongxingxingxingxing, after breakfast tomorrow morning, I will go to the brigade to find the brigade leader."

[Note: sleepy and wake up: the dialect means sleeping. Under certain circumstances, the separate word "sleeping" means sleeping. 】

Chen Lianmi knew that he had a bad temper, and the more he tried to persuade him, the more stubborn he became, so he changed his tone and said, "Then you can discuss it with the team leader tomorrow. If you want to do this, you must have a charter."

"I understand, please blow out the lamp, I'm too lazy to go down..."

Chen Lianmi got out of bed and turned on the lamp, and the room instantly became dark.

After groping their way onto the bed, the couple couldn't help but mumble a few more words before going to bed:

"Go get some while you're stuck!"

There was a rustling, and Zhao Hongbing moved inside, "God's eyes are open this time. It didn't rain during the threshing of millet. I sowed the corn and beans after they were sown, so I didn't have to carry water to irrigate the ground. Tell me,

How much effort does this save?”

…

The rain didn't start until around eight o'clock in the evening. As Si Ningning had guessed at the beginning, it was indeed very heavy.

When it fell on the roof tiles, it was like a pebble hitting it, with a "clang, clatter, clatter, clatter". Si Ningning was half asleep and squinted, but was immediately awakened by the movement.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" After Si Ningning woke up, Jiang Yue also woke up, but she was not woken up by the sound, but by the small raindrops floating in. "It collapsed. Did the house collapse?"

Already?"

After shouting in confusion, Xu Shuhua and Song Xiaoyun also woke up. They both got up from the bed and squinted their eyes in the darkness, "What's wrong?"

Thin drops of water were carried by the wind into the house, and with them came a thick earthy smell.

You should know that there are two load-bearing pillars erected in front of the two doors of the Educated Youth Point, and the eaves extend outward by at least 80 centimeters, so that small water droplets can be blown in. This shows how strong the wind is blowing outside.

"It's not a big deal, it's just the rain coming in." Si Ningning explained, got out of bed, pulled out the washbasin from under the bed, and took out the dirty clothes that hadn't been washed yet, "Does any of you have a rope?"

"I have a bundle here."

Xu Shuhua dug out the rope in the dark and worked with Si Ningning to fasten the clothes to the window.

The window was too big, and Jiang Yue and Song Xiaoyun's clothes were put on behind them one after another, barely covering it.

The rain stopped coming in, but the wind still leaked in, but the effect was not big, and the kerosene lamp could be lit.

The sound of falling raindrops dispersed the drowsiness of several girls. Si Ningning lit the kerosene lamp, and the room lit up. The warm lights were swaying, and several people sat on the bed and chatted. Si Ningning felt a little bored, so she turned to the book before

The roll of linen brought back from the county. "I went to the county some time ago to catch up with the county department store to handle cloth activities. This roll of linen cost ninety-eight cents. It should be twenty-five or six feet. I thought it would suit me."

I bought a roll..."

Si Ningning looked around casually, took out the cloth and walked across the open road.

The process of making clothes does not have to be clearly stated, but there must be a process of appearance of the things. People cannot think that her things appear out of thin air every time. Over time, someone will definitely become suspicious.

After all, the number of times I usually go to town is limited, and the packages are only so big. Whether I go to town to buy something, or I make an excuse to say it was sent from home, the package cannot hold much, so I can only take some out when I have the opportunity.

Si Ningning pulled out a lavender rope that was as thick as her little finger and half a meter long from the rattan box. If you look closely, it was actually not a rope, but made up of more than a dozen sweater threads of similar lengths, with two knots in the middle.

, the distance between the two knots is exactly one foot.

In the 1970s, most tailors used wooden rulers. Si Ningning was not sure if there was such a thing as a tape measure. Worried about causing trouble if he took it out rashly, he made a temporary measuring tool in the space using woolen rope and a soft ruler.

.

"I can't use that much alone, do any of you want it? I'll give you three points, eighty feet." The moment Si Ningning took out the cloth, he successfully attracted the attention of several other girls in the room.

After hearing Si Ningning's explanation, the three girls immediately gathered around, "Is it really three to eight?"

Disposed cloth is cheap and does not require a ticket, but it is not available every day. Occasionally, a batch is delivered to the supply and marketing cooperative, and it is basically sold out instantly.

The access of educated youths was restricted, so it was difficult to catch up. Xu Shuhua and the others were certainly excited when they had the opportunity to buy, but considering some issues, the three of them were still hesitant.

Jiang Yue shook the cloth out a little and stroked it gently with her hand, "The price of the supply and marketing cooperative is four cents. Why don't you give us three cents and eighty cents?"

"Yes, Ning Ning, in fact, four cents per foot is fine. You brought it back from outside, which saves us from walking such a long way to buy it." Xu Shuhua agreed.

Although Song Xiaoyun said nothing, she stood opposite the small table that Si Ningning placed beside the bed and kept nodding along.

"I bought this by the roll, not by the foot... Calculated in detail, it's almost three-quarters and eight-one feet." Si Ningning's lips curled up, and she waved her hands pretending to be impatient for a while, "Oh, hurry up.

Come on, hurry up if you want it, I’ll cut it for you now, and I’ll stuff it into the box later, so I won’t take it out easily!”

Jiang Yuemo did some calculations and determined that Si Ningning had not suffered a loss. He had nothing to be embarrassed about at the moment. He raised his hand and said positively: "Then, then I, I want it! I want three feet, no, four feet!"

"I want some too! I don't have much money, so I just need two feet."

"Then I also want two feet!"

Xu Shuhua and Jiang Yue followed closely behind.

"Okay, come one by one!"

Jiang Yue said it first, and Si Ningning started with Jiang Yue.

Shake out the fabric, hold the sweater rope and align it with the corner of the fabric, press the fabric and push it down four feet, it is four feet. Thinking that the linen is easy to remove, Si Ningning relaxed it by half an inch before letting Jiang Yue pinch the fabric.

mark.

She dug out the sewing kit from the rattan box and took out the small scissors. She asked Xu Shuhua to help straighten the fabric together, and then she cut out the piece of fabric next to Jiang Yue.

After Jiang Yue took the cloth, Si Ningning took the roll of cloth and turned it around, cutting cloth for Xu Shuhua and Song Xiaoyun in turn.

After that, he measured two feet according to his needs, asked Xu Shuhua to help straighten the fabric and cut it. Finally, he locked the remaining fabric into the box together with the money given by several girls to buy cloth.

The fabric door width, that is, the width, is usually 110cm, and there are 150cm or more, but it is rare. Supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores sell fabrics, regardless of the door width, and the charges are calculated based on the foot.

The roll of fabric in Si Ningning's hand has a width of 110cm. The size of the fabric in one foot is 110x34cm. Cut it and piece it together to make a half-sleeved shirt according to a girl's body size. There is still some leftover.

Linen is thin and breathable, which are advantages, but it also has a disadvantage, which is that the fabric is overall rather see-through.

Si Ningning cut out two feet of fabric and had planned it in advance. After making two pairs of half-sleeved shirts, there would still be some leftovers to tie some ruffles on special parts to cover up and look good.

It turns out that I also have two half-sleeved shirts. Because I am tall, the shoulders and elbows are a bit tight, making it very uncomfortable to move. Moreover, when I was cleaning the pig pen, one of them broke when I climbed over the fence.

After coming back and washing it, Si Ningning packed it up and put it away. Recently, she has been wearing a gown.
