Chapter 156 Si Ningning's "Strengths"

Si Ningning pressed the handle of the bucket and tilted the bucket. The bowl was filled with dish soap just now, and after the water was poured in, a little foam was generated. The moment the red oil floating on the water touched the foam, it quickly dissipated to the surroundings like a raging fire.

Si Ningning's small white hand stuck to the edge of the rough porcelain bowl and turned it around twice, poured out the water, rinsed it with clean water, poured the water, and handed the bowl to He Gu.

The edge of the rough porcelain bowl is dark brown, and the bottom of the bowl is light blue, and there are many brown spots caused by firing. It is a very ordinary bowl, but it is very clean.

There is no red oil just now, and it is not like some people's homes, because the oil stains have not been washed thoroughly, and the surface of the porcelain bowl is always covered with a layer of fog.

The bowls that Si Ningning washed were very bright, and the sunlight scattered between the leaves was a little dazzling.

He Gu's gaze fell back to the lunch box in his hand, the dish soap that rubbed against the edge of the lunch box had already slipped into the bottom of the lunch box.

Of course, He Gu didn't know what dishwashing liquid was, and he didn't know that besides cleaning, dishwashing liquid could also remove oil. He just felt that those red oils seemed to be afraid of the transparent thing, and they all hid away.

Probably because of this "fear", the oil stains can be removed so cleanly.

He Gu looked up at Si Ningning, and said seriously, "It's better than plant ash."

Si Ningning nodded, smiled encouragingly: "With it, you can also wash it clean, do you want to try it?"

"Hmm..." He Gu nodded hesitantly, "Okay."

Si Ningning helped pour the water, and did not interfere with the rest except for guidance.

Until He Gu finished washing the lunch box clumsily, looking at the shiny lunch box, she asked, "How do you feel?"

"It's very clean." He Gu said truthfully, and at the same time held the lunch box to the side of the bucket, wanting Si Ningning to pour some more water and wash it.

"Yes, it's very clean, so this is fine." Si Ningning took the lunch box directly, turned around and walked in front, "Hurry up, it's time to go to the team."

He Gu trotted behind Si Ningning. This was the first time he cleaned a bowl by himself, and he always felt a sense of pride in his heart. Besides, he was even more curious about that transparent thing.

"Si Ningning, what was that just now?"

"I discovered it by accident. It's called... I don't know what it's called."

The word "dishwashing liquid" almost blurted out, Si Ningning quickly shut up and said, "Do you want it? It happens that I have more work recently during the busy farming season. If you are willing to come and help me share the work during this time, I will How about some for you?"

"Okay, I'll help you with the work." He Gu readily agreed.

Si Ningning gave a soft "um", and her light cherry-colored lips evoked a satisfied smile in a place where He Gu could not see.

Afterwards, she went to the production team to collect the rice bran. Si Ningning fed the pigs and cleaned the pig pens. During this period, Hegu reached out to help, but she gently pushed him aside, "If you can't do these things well, I'll do it."

He Gu stood beside him with a wrinkled face, a little dissatisfied and a little dazed.

Si Ningning clearly asked him to help with the work, but in the end he was not allowed to do anything.

Si Ningning saw He Gu's reaction in her eyes, and she said that the purpose of asking He Gu to help with the work was to slowly change He Gu, not to really let He Gu work.

Si Ningning has a sense of proportion.

The pigsty is almost cleaned, and now it needs to be washed with water.

Carrying a bucket to fetch water from Zhou Xiaocui's house, Zhou Xiaocui happened to be at home at this time, squatting on the inside of the threshold, digging for something.

"Sister educated youth, you are here!" Zhou Xiaocui greeted Si Ningning warmly when she saw Si Ningning coming.

"Yeah." Si Ningning responded with a smile, and used the water to shake the well water up, and then stepped back to let He Gu fill the bucket, while she chatted with Zhou Xiaocui: "Xiao Cui, Xiao Cui Comrade, are you busy today?"

"Sister educated youth, I'm not busy... I'm going to look for Sanya, and then I'll go to the pigsty to find you!"

Listening to Si Ningning joking about "Little Comrade", Zhou Xiaocui smiled embarrassedly, and then said happily: "The pockmarked shoulder pole last time was completely dry, I broke the willow branches yesterday and came back to make a new one, I want to play with you!"

After saying that, Zhou Xiaocui looked at Si Ningning and asked, "Sister, do you have time today?"

"I have time." Si Ningning glanced at the small body that was pressing water by the well.

The little guy was so thin that his arms were trembling when shaking the water, but he still tried hard to press the water again.

Si Ningning thought about it, seeing that the bucket was almost full, she got up and went to pick it up, "Call Sanya to come with me later, I'll go and clean up that piece first."

"I know Sister Educated Youth! We'll be here soon!"

……

"Pocket pole, can you do it?"

"I was able to beat Zhou Xiaocui and Sanya a few times before, but recently they have all learned their skills, so I can't win anymore, alas..."

On the way back to the pigsty, Si Ningning was rambling on, seemingly complaining, but actually laying the groundwork for the next step.

"Xiaohegu, do you think I can win in a while?" Si Ningning asked with his head tilted.

He Gu had been listening quietly, and when he heard Si Ningning's question, he gave a soft "tsk" and said, "Yes."

Si Ningning is very good at playing pockmarked poles. He basically beat Sanya and Zhou Xiaocui before. He Gu has only seen her win, never seen her lose.

And Si Ningning's rambling remarks just now just made He Gu feel that maybe Si Ningning lost the pockmarked pole game with Sanya and the others, and it happened that he was not there.

He Gu didn't think deeply about this matter, but he had great confidence in Si Ningning and he would definitely win.

A slight smile flashed across Si Ningning's dark deer eyes, and he still pretended to be disappointed, and said in a somewhat exaggerated tone: "I hope it can be like what you said... Otherwise, I will be sad."

A game, if you lose, you lose.

He Gu didn't understand what was so sad about it, but he still bit his lips and nodded seriously.

After cleaning the pigsty, Zhou Xiaocui and Sanya happened to come over.

It was still the shady place near the corner before, He Gu didn't want to participate, so he squatted aside and watched Si Ningning and the three of them play.

Playing two games in a row, Si Ningning won one game and lost the other. In the middle of the third game, Si Ningning was on the verge of losing again.

Si Ningning gave a soft "tsk", and impatiently raised her dark crescent eyebrows.

It just so happened that the sun was rising at this moment, and the shadow in the corner of the wall was getting smaller and smaller. Si Ningning's head was already outside the shadow, being illuminated by the sun.

The black hair absorbed the heat, and Si Ningning's forehead was covered with fine sweat. Suddenly, as if she remembered something, she patted her forehead and said, "It's bad, it's bad! I haven't delivered water today!"

Sanya and the others all knew that Si Ningning would usually bring water to the educated youths who went to the field.

Zhou Xiaocui suggested: "Sister, this game is almost over, why don't you go after you finish playing?"

"It's been hard work these days, so we can't delay everyone because of playing." Si Ningning shook his head, turned to look at He Gu, and said, "He Gu, you play this round for me."

"I do not……"

He Gu tilted his neck back, subconsciously refusing.

It's just that before he could finish his sentence, Si Ningning took him aside with his shoulders.

Si Ningning first smiled at Sanya and the others, then looked away, and said in a low voice: "If you don't represent me, they will definitely think that I ran away because I was afraid of losing!"

"If they think that way, even if I replace you, they will still think that way." He Gu IQ Online retorted in an orderly manner.

Si Ningning was at a loss for words for a moment, and quickly replied: "That's different, if you replace me, they will concentrate on playing games, how can they think about other things?"

It seems to make sense.

He Gu pursed his lips and fell silent.

Si Ningning's eyes flashed teasing, but he quickly concealed it.

She continued to lower her voice, and pretended to be serious: "Be careful, you know? You can't lose, or I will be sad."

Under her influence, He Gu lowered his voice and retorted softly: "I didn't promise you."

"You won't help me anymore?" Si Ningning tilted his chin to one side, squinting at He Gu.

Her pretty face was tense, pretending to be annoyed, but in fact the corners of her mouth were raised, trembling twice and then quickly pressed down, repeating this several times, it looked like she wanted to laugh but was holding back the smile.

Seeing that He Gu was speechless.

Even if you pretend to be angry, can you pretend to be a little bit more like it?He is not stupid.

Although he was very resistant, but remembering what he had promised Si Ningning at the educated youth point just now, the young master He Gu sighed, his brows were furrowed, and he said seriously and angrily: "I will help you this time, if next time If it’s still like this, I don’t want your dish washer!”

Si Ningning's deer eyes curled up, "I won't have trouble every time... Remember, you can't lose!"

Speaking of pushing He Gu towards Sanya and the others, Si Ningning said cheerfully: "I'll go to the field first, and He Gu will be on my behalf in this round. The win or loss is mine, so don't bully him."

"By the way, the bag of rice bran is placed over there. Be careful, don't let anyone walk away."

"Oh! Got it, sister educated youth!"

The corners of Si Ningning's mouth curled up, revealing a row of white teeth. When he ran out of the alley, he vaguely heard Zhou Xiaocui's clear voice: "Hegu, come here~ I'll win you over."

"It's not certain who wins and who loses! If you are like this, I can win ten in one go, just wait and see." He Gu replied domineeringly.

The voices of the children behind him became smaller and smaller, but the curve of Si Ningning's lips became larger and larger.

The jumping steps made the twisted braids on the back of the head sway, and the swaying arc was like wicker swaying in the spring wind.

Every frown, smile, and every move reveals the vigor that only a young girl can have...

Little Hegu, who is so foolish, will he know that if there is a first time, there will be a second time?

Thinking in her heart, Si Ningning couldn't help but frowned and laughed softly.

This time to deliver water, Si Ningning met Zhao Hongbing halfway in the field.

Seeing Si Ningning carrying the kettle, Zhao Hongbing vaguely recalled a sentence his mother-in-law mentioned some time ago:
"Educated youth Si not only has a high level of ideological awareness, but also has a delicate mind! Every morning and afternoon, I deliver water to the comrades educated youth who go to the fields. I don't see any girls who run so hard in other families even if they are biological girls."

To be honest, among the group of female educated youths, Zhao Hongbing is the least optimistic about Si Ningning.

why?
Because the person is beautiful, with white skin and tender flesh, he really doesn't look like someone who can endure hardship.

Moreover, Zhao Hongbing always felt that the more good-looking and juicy he was, the more likely he was to cause trouble.

However, Zhao Hongbing's impression of Si Ningning changed a lot after hearing Chen Lianmi's good words about Si Ningning.

Especially when Zhao Hongbing visited the pigsty a few days ago, the whole pigsty was cleaned up, and the pigs looked much better than before. After careful consideration, Si Ningning's performance was indeed not like that. It's a trick that doesn't know anything.

You know, as the captain of the production team, there are only two major tasks on Zhao Hongbing's shoulders every year, one is the harvest of the fields, and the other is the few pigs that the government clearly stipulates.

Pigs are different from public grain. If the public grain is not paid due to lack of harvest, it is the same to make up for the next season.

But pigs are different. If they fail to reach the target weight by the end of the year, they will have to make up for it from other places. For example, there are currently four pigs in the three pig pens, and three pigs have to be handed in at the end of the year, and only one pig can be left in the team. .

If the three pigs handed in were underweight, the remaining one had to be used to make up for it.

Three teams and one production team count more than 40 households by household, but if counted by population, even if there are less than 190 people, then there must be [-] people, and it is not enough to leave a pig, let alone hand in part out.

It doesn't matter if Si Ningning doesn't know how to farm, but she knows how to raise pigs!

Raising pigs is also a good thing, isn't it?
By the end of the year, members of the commune will be able to eat meat, have hope for the coming year, and work harder.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongbing's dryness and heat dissipated a lot. He wiped his sweat with the sweat towel hanging around his neck, and took the initiative to say hello, "Si Zhiqing, how about some water?"

"Ah, it's... Uncle."

Si Ningning saw Zhao Hongbing just now, but Zhao Hongbing was busy cutting rice, she was hesitant to say hello, but Zhao Hongbing spoke first.

Zhao Hongbing had mud spots all over his body when he cut the millet, and his face was shining brightly from the sun. Si Ningning saw it clearly and asked, "Uncle, did you bring a tea mug? Shall I pour some for you too?"

"Okay." Zhao Hongbing responded cheerfully, and came out of the field to find the enamel jar placed on the ridge.

The enamel jar was left on the ground all morning, and the ants had already crawled there. Zhao Hongbing was a farmer at heart, and he wasn't that particular about it. He just patted the enamel jar in front of Si Ningning casually.

After Si Ningning poured half a bowl of water, Zhao Hongbing took a sip, and the coldness slipped through his throat and into his stomach, making him feel sour and comfortable all over.

Zhao Hongbing let out a sigh of relief, lowered his head and glanced casually, and saw two emerald green leaves floating in the vat, which looked more like grass than tea leaves.

"Si Zhiqing, what did you use to soak it?" Zhao Hongbing hooked his fingers, and directly pulled out the mint from the enamel jar, and looked at it repeatedly in the palm of his hand.

"It's mint. It's used to soak water in summer. It can relieve wind and heat and prevent heatstroke." Si Ningning smiled and answered truthfully.

Zhao Hongbing looked at Si Ningning in surprise, and asked, "Si Zhiqing, do you know medicine?"

"Uncle, this has nothing to do with 'knowing medicine. Knowledge of emergency care."
