Chapter 29: Stubbornness

After saying that, Zhao Hongbing turned his face to one side and motioned for everyone to look at Sanya to see if she looked familiar.

Sanya is seven or eight years old, dark and thin, with a small face as big as a palm, with yellow hair, but a pair of bright black eyes.

Facing everyone’s gaze, Sanya smiled a little sheepishly, but she was not afraid of people.

Zhao Hongbing left after making arrangements, and the educated youths divided things among themselves.

There was a kerosene lamp on each side. When I approached the bucket, I found that there were not only lamps inside, but also a handful of water spinach and a few wilted peppers.

"I haven't eaten anything all the way. How about the lesbians cook first? Let's go get water?" someone suggested.

"OK!"

The proposal was quickly implemented. After all, it was not just one or two people who were hungry all the way.

Xu Shuhua weighed the ration bag and knew how much food should be taken by so many people at one time.

Xu Shuhua was cooking, and Si Ningning originally came to help, but was kicked aside neatly:

“Just soak the sorghum rice and steam it in a pot. If you can’t help yourself, go ahead and choose some vegetables!”

“That’s okay!”

Si Ningning turned around excitedly, only to see Jiang Yue and Song Xiaoyun sitting on the steps of the gate working hard.

There were only a handful of vegetables, and both of them picked enough to make a surplus. Si Ningning did not join in the fun, but dug out a broken basket from the firewood house, and she dragged the basket out of the house.

There are many cedar trees in front of Zhiqingdian. The leaves of the cedar trees are like mimosa. The leaves are very thin. When they die, they are very suitable for igniting fires.

This place has not been inhabited for a long time, and there is a lot of accumulation on the ground. Collecting it now will save a lot of trouble in the future.

Si Ningning was afraid of snakes and insects hiding under the dead leaves, so she didn't dare to grab them with her hands, so she broke off two fairly straight branches from the side and put them into the basket bit by bit.

Li Lingyuan was responsible for weeding. Seeing Si Ningning’s busy work, he couldn’t help but curiously asked:

“What is the use of Nongjie?”

“It can be used to start a fire, but it will be even more useful when it rains and becomes damp.”

"Oh!" Li Lingyuan nodded naively, "Si Zhiqing, what do you do at home? I see you know a lot! I've never seen this tree in my hometown." "I haven't seen it in Beijing either. , I just think of it when I see it, and everyone is busy, so I can’t be idle, right?”

While the two of them were talking, the movements of their respective hands did not slow down.

Song Xiaoyun pinched the stem of the pepper and pulled out the seeds, pursed her lips and smiled:

“Si educated youth is very popular!”

“It’s her business to be happy, what does it have to do with us?”

Jiang Yue rolled her eyes.

“We can learn from Si Zhiqing. Once he becomes popular, everyone will be willing to help him when things happen in the future.”

Song Xiaoyun nudged Jiang Yue, "Don't be so angry. Why do you remember such a trivial matter?"

Jiang Yue pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, her face wrinkled like a chrysanthemum, and said angrily:

“Then I didn’t mean to target her, look at her!”

Si Ningning was crouching down and clasping the fallen leaves on the ground, with his sleeves raised, revealing his white wrists.

Jiang Yue immediately hummed:

“She is as weak as a girl in a boudoir, and she is as tender as a girl in a boudoir. I just can’t stand her capitalist behavior!”

Song Xiaoyun was speechless for a while, thinking in her heart:

Why is Jiang Yue so stubborn?

Afraid of saying too much, Jiang Yue couldn't help but find fault with Si Ningning, and hurriedly said:

"Some people have special circumstances. They just can't tan. It may not be due to other external reasons... Okay, I've finished selecting the dishes and I'll bring them in! Don't be idle, find a cloth to wipe the dust on the window coffin. Give it a try!”

Jiang Yue nodded impatiently.
