Chapter 77 New Job
The cabbage seedlings and cauliflower seedlings are also growing well, and the outermost leaves are already about the size of a palm.
The distance between the seedlings seemed quite sparse before, but now it looks a bit crowded.
These two vegetables will form "balls" in the middle in the future. Even if the soil has sufficient nutrients, being too dense will affect the growth, so the seedlings must be dug up and planted separately.
Si Ningning nodded with satisfaction, drank the last sip of soup and walked back to the villa.
He was really tired today, and the skin on his hands was not yet clean, so Si Ningning gave up the idea of continuing to work.
He threw the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen sink, turned around and went into the bathroom to fill up the water and take a comfortable hot bath.
It not only cleanses the body, but also relieves muscle soreness.
He came out of the bathroom half an hour later and stuffed the dirty clothes into the washing machine. Si Ningning found the medicine box and disinfected his palms with iodine as usual. He took out the small bunch of herbs that he had put into the space before and chewed them as before. The broken spit was pushed away in the palm of his right hand.
With the coolness in his palms, Si Ningning temporarily moved around and collected things like a one-armed hero, placing all the things that might be used the next day separately so that they can be easily collected.
After finishing her work, she took out two packages of mint seeds from the seed box, opened one of them, scattered some of them randomly near the creek, and wrapped some of them in toilet paper, taking them out to prepare for tomorrow. Try it on educated youth spots.
Hands behind his back, Si Ningning looked around like a veteran cadre and made sure there was no problem before leaving the room. Si Ningning quietly returned to the room and climbed into bed.
After taking a shower, Si Ningning felt that her body was fragrant and there was no sweat smell. I don’t know if it was a psychological effect. Si Ningning felt that even the mosquitoes became gentle. They buzzed around him twice and then disappeared.
Yawned sleepily, Si Ningning turned sideways and fell into a deep sleep.
Have a good night's sleep until dawn.

The front half of Si Ningning's right hand almost shed a layer of skin. It looked scary. In fact, the only part that was really serious enough to bleed was the first blistering area.
Fortunately, she did a good job in disinfecting and preventing infection, and with the help of herbal medicine, the wound was left empty overnight, and by early the next morning, the exposed pink tender flesh had solidified and scabbed.
It won’t be a big problem if you wear some gloves when you work later.
Si Ningning took out the simple basket that Huo Lang had made before and put the lunch box in it. For convenience, potatoes were still for breakfast and lunch today.
After saying hello, Si Ningning was about to go to the team to pick up tools. When he stepped out of the educated youth spot, he met Sanya from the production team leader's family.
"My father said that today, the educated youth sisters can go to plant rice seedlings or weed the cornfields. If you plan to go to the cornfields, come with me now and I will lead you to find the place."
Sanya came to deliver a message. Upon hearing this, Si Ningning turned around and called several other female educated youths to listen.
“I won’t go. I learned how to plant rice all afternoon yesterday, and I can almost get started today.”
"Me too!"
Xu Shuhua and the others have the same opinion.
Si Ningning really hated invertebrate creatures like leeches, so she walked towards Sanya carrying the basket and said, "I'll go with you."
Sanya had eaten the candy given by Si Ningning, so she had a good impression of Si Ningning.
Hearing Si Ningning’s intention to go to the cornfield, Sanya’s eyes sparkled, “Okay, sister educated youth, go here!”
Si Ningning followed up with small steps, "Don't you have to go to the team to get farm tools?"
"No need! Weeding is often done in cornfields. Generally, it's the newly grown grass. Just pull it out." Sanya said as she plunged into the shadow path.
