Return To the Era with Space Supplies

Chapter 140 Fireworks

Si Ningning waved her hands quickly, "Auntie, I can't eat anymore. I really can't eat anymore this time."

Si Ningning felt embarrassed.

Chen Lianmi takes it seriously and will send her care about seasonal vegetables from time to time. But as the number of times increases, why does this care look more and more like it is just for her?

 Although the small head is given to her and the big head is given to everyone, others do not have this "only share" of the small head.

"Take it even if you can't eat it. You're such a good girl, why do you have a cat's belly (describing a small appetite)." Chen Lianmi stuffed the tomatoes into Si Ningning's arms, "I brought the things, and this is from my aunt. My son gave it to you. Others have their own share. Who else can’t gossip?”

 Chen Lianmi pretended to glare, but Si Ningning had no choice but to accept it.

 There were vague conversations coming from the rooms on both sides one after another. It was estimated that work was about to begin. Chen Lianmi asked Si Ningning to get something to pack tomatoes and lotus roots. After that, she stood in front of the door and chatted for a few more words before heading home.

Si Ningning put his two tomatoes into his pocket and entered the house with a wooden basin for washing rice. He bumped into Song Xiaoyun and Jiang Yue coming out of the house.

Jiang Yue saw Si Ningning, and her sleep-stained face regained consciousness, "Si Ningning, can you burn some firewood for cooking tonight? I want to collect some charcoal and try to make mosquito coils. You can help me then. Check it out, okay?”

I don’t know whether it’s because she didn’t wake up or what happened, but her voice sounded a little hoarse.

Retaining carbon is a convenient thing, Si Ningning nodded without hesitation, "Okay."

Song Xiaoyun noticed the wooden basin in Si Ningning's arms on one side, her almond-shaped eyes swayed and she said with a smile: "Ningning, Aunt Chen has brought something again?"

“The kids are not at home, so I’m afraid it might get damaged if I don’t put it in. Bring some for us,” Si Ningning said.

Xu Shuhua, who came out after putting on her shoes, heard this and laughed, "The captain is very kind, and Aunt Chen is also a good person. She always takes good care of us. Let's work more actively in the future! Try to compete for the advancement of the team. Throw that Zhougang Brigade out of the eight streets!"

"I'd like to, but it's too hot today." Jiang Yue puffed her lips, "I cut grain this morning and my throat is so dry that it's almost smoking."

Si Ningning thought for a moment, and she probably understood why Jiang Yue's voice was hoarse.

Si Ningning carried the wooden basin filled with lotus roots and tomatoes back to the kitchen. She hesitated slightly as she walked back to the main room. After just a moment, she walked straight towards the main room.

"If you have a cup, bring it with you. Aunt Lianmi just sent an old teapot and said it was lent to us..."

 You should not veto everyone just because of one Wu Yong.

These people may have never given her much help, but they are all friendly and know how to share.

Thinking about it, Si Ningning sounded more serious and sincere: "If I'm not busy later, I will bring you water."

Xu Shuhua and Jiang Yue were stunned for a moment and said one after another: "Ningning/Si Ningning, thank you!"

 Only Song Xiaoyun blinked and asked: "Where are the male educated youths?"

Jiang Yue gave Song Xiaoyun a strange look but said nothing. Xu Shuhua replied: "We educated youths form a small group. There is no distinction between men and women in this matter. If Ning Ning delivers water, he must give it to everyone. Is it necessary to treat them differently?"

Xu Shuhua said, grinning widely and smiling at Si Ningning: "Right Ningning!"

Si Ningning smiled and nodded, that’s the truth.

Song Xiaoyun frowned and quickly explained: "That's not what I meant...I meant that if it is confirmed, should we tell the male educated youth? Remind them to bring..."

Before Song Xiaoyun finished speaking, Jiang Yue had already walked out of the main room, stood in front of the door with her hands on her hips and shouted: "Li Lingyuan, if you have a water cup in the afternoon, bring a water cup, and if you don't have a water cup, bring a lunch box. We have a kettle. Ning Ning will bring us water later." drink!"

Over there in the male educated youth's room, Mo Bei paused while flipping through the Little Red Book. Li Lingyuan had already jumped up from the bed, quickly ran to the window and raised his voice and replied: "Oh! I know! Thank you, Si Educated Youth, for us!" "

Jiang Yue did not answer any more, but turned around and rushed to Xu Shuhua in the room: "Let's go, we will be late for work soon."

"Okay!" Xu Shuhua hurriedly went back to the room to get the toothbrush bowl, "Ning Ning, let's go first!"

Took a few steps towards the door, and saw that Song Xiaoyun pursed her lips and didn't move for a long time. Xu Shuhua grabbed her wrist and said, "Let's go, Xiaoyun, I'm busy now. If you are late, you will be scolded."

The female educated youths left, and the male educated youths also passed by the door one after another. There was not much firewood in the kitchen. Si Ningning planned to go to the door step to grab some firewood and go into the house. As soon as he squatted down in front of the door, Leng Buding's eyesight dimmed.

She raised her head and looked all the way up, facing Mo Bei's cold and handsome face.

　　　…”

Si Ningning was silent and glanced at the cloth bag Mo Bei was holding. It was the same bag Mo Bei used to buy rice from her on the black market.

They had an agreement, so Si Ningning knew what Mo Bei meant.

She put down the firewood and took the rice bag, "Today or tomorrow?"

"Everything is fine." Mo Bei's voice was calm, and after a moment he said: "This is five kilograms, tell me when you finish eating."

 This word means that the rice is placed here at Si Ningning’s place.

Si Ningning hesitated for a moment, then felt relieved after thinking about Mo Bei's temperament, "Okay."

Si Ningning stood up and was about to lock Mi Xian into the rattan box, but saw Mo Bei still standing aside looking at her, showing no intention of leaving.

Si Ningning frowned blankly, and glanced at the corner of the house with her clear eyes. After a while, she tilted her head and looked at Mo Bei, "They have all left, why don't you leave?"

Mo Bei's Adam's apple slid, and he followed Si Ningning's gaze to the side of the room. When he said "just leave" on his lips, what came out was: "I have long legs and can walk fast."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　∣　　

His words were so different from the past that Si Ningning couldn't help but laugh.

On her delicate little face, her curved deer-like eyes narrowed into small crescents, the moles at the corners of her eyes trembled slightly, her pale lips were raised and her teeth were faintly exposed, her smile was bright, and she was really happy.

Mo Bei's eyebrows, which had been half frowning recently, relaxed slightly. For a short moment, from the girl's pretty smile, Mo Bei felt that he seemed to have realized something.

The corners of Mo Bei's lips curved quietly, and with a cold "leave", he really left without looking back.

Si Ningning stared at his back for a long time, then looked away and shook her head slightly, laughing.

The days when I went to the countryside, there was a hint of fireworks on the young master, and I learned to joke.

It’s hard to say how much it has changed, but it has definitely grown.

Si Ningning carried firewood to the kitchen twice, washed the kettle that Chen Lianmi brought over, and scrubbed it several times with loofah pulp before carrying it into the house. There was already cold water in the pot at the back of the kitchen. Si Ningning filled the pot directly and finally carried the pot into the space.

Rinse the few oranges that Zhou Xiaocui has given me recently, without peeling them. Pick one, cut it in half with a knife, and throw it into the teapot. Add two or three spoons of sugar, and pinch a few mint tips and throw them in. Stirred with chopsticks.

After that, take out all the water from the upper shelf of the refrigerator, remove the middle partition, and put the kettle inside to chill it a little.

After finishing these tasks, Si Ningning started to work on his own share. His aunt was gone and there was no need to estimate anything now.

Same operation process, except that ready-made ice mineral water is used and finally poured into a military kettle.

 At first I thought it was the end of the world, so I only considered "portability" when collecting supplies. The water I bought was bottled water. If it is for home use, large barrels of bottled water are actually more suitable.

Thinking of this, Si Ningning couldn't help but think a little more.

 At the beginning, she collected supplies solely to deal with situations that might occur in the apocalypse. Now that she has traveled back to the 1970s, most of the things she collected, except for food and cloth, are of no use at the moment.

  In other words, it is impossible to consume them all in this era.

Of course she can find a way to do it, but shipping in large quantities may make her rich quickly, but it will also disrupt the order of the world to a certain extent.

 Forget it...those are still too far away.

 …Let’s live the present now!

Si Ningning stuffed two mint leaves into the military kettle, tightened the cap to make room, tied the door of the educated youth point, and turned around to go to the pig pen.

It was cool in the pig pen, and Si Ningning was working there. Hegu, Sanya and Zhou Xiaocui often went there to play. Games they often played included catching stones and carrying "pockmarked poles".

Grabbing stones is easy to understand. Pick five round stones or any multiple of five, as long as one hand can hold them.

First, hold it, then throw it up and catch it with the back of your hand. After catching it, throw it up and catch it with the palm of your hand. Generally, the number of stones that fall into the palm of your hand is usually 1-3. The rule for eating stones scattered on the ground every time is: one will eat three, and two will eat two. , eat one out of three or eat two out of three.

There is also something to pay attention to when eating "zi". It does not mean that you just pick it up and you are done, but you have to throw up the stone in the palm of your hand, quickly grab the stone on the ground and then catch the previously thrown stone. During this period, if a stone falls to the ground, or If it touches other stones on the ground, it is considered a loss.

Si Ningning also joined in the fun and played a game of chance when she was free. Every time she lost the worst, not to mention that the three fingers on the back of her right hand had a barb. After playing a few times, Si Ningning stopped playing.

However, Si Ningning has mastered the game of "Pockmarked Carrying Pole" and is able to blast several carrot heads.

This game is actually similar to the chess and card building games of later generations, but it is not a building, and the main "parts" are not chess and cards, but small wooden sticks of the same length made of wicker.

These wicker sticks are all skinned, and different points are carved on them with a knife. Some of them are left black at both ends, and the skin in the middle is removed and white. Black, with white on both sides in the middle...

There are eight kinds of "pockmarked poles" in total. Each suit has four pieces, like chess cards, for a total of thirty-two pieces.

The gameplay is to hold the thirty-two small wooden sticks tightly, stand the bottom on any flat surface, quickly let go and move away, let the thirty-two small wooden sticks scatter by themselves, and then touch other small wooden sticks without disturbing them. Whoever takes out the most sticks wins.

There is actually an upgraded version of the game behind this, that is, the thirty-two small wooden sticks themselves are a "card". Go back and forth for several rounds until the scattered wooden sticks are removed, and the "cards" in each hand can also be played like a card. Play a round of poker.

However, the upgraded game rules are a bit troublesome. Si Ningning only remembers that two of the same cards are pairs and four of the same cards are bombs. In addition, she really doesn’t understand which “card” is bigger and which “card” is smaller. .

 Hence, every time the first half of the game is finished, the game starts again.

Today is the same as the past few days. When Si Ningning arrived at the pig pen, several carrot heads were already waiting there eagerly.

The dust on the ground on the shady side of the south corner of the pig pen adjacent to the alley wall has long been cleaned, and there are a few more flat stones than before.

At this time, several little carrot heads were sitting on the rocks, playing "pockmarked poles" together. They heard footsteps coming from the alley behind them, and turned back one after another.

When he saw who was coming, he stood up happily and said, "Sister Educated Youth!"

 “Educated Youth Sister!”

"We thought you would have to wait a while before coming. This game has already started. We will wait for you to play with the next game!" Several little carrot heads said over and over again.

 But there is an exception.

It is especially obvious when standing silently at the end of the grain.

Hegu often ran to the pig pen during this period, but he never participated in other people's games. He usually found a corner to sit, either focusing on Si Ningning's work, or silently watching other children. Carrot head plays.

  Never had any intention of getting involved.

Perhaps it’s because of his personality, or maybe it’s a psychological flaw. In short, poor little Hegu successfully touched the softness in Si Ningning’s heart.

 For this reason, Si Ningning will always pay more attention to Hegu.

"You guys play, I'll go and clean up first... I have other things to do today. I'll have time to play with you after I'm done." Si Ningning put a peaceful smile on his face and strolled past Little Carrot Head. When passing by the grain, He took advantage of the situation and touched his head.

Hegu twisted his neck uncomfortably, puffed out his mouth, opened his eyes wide, and followed Si Ningning's movements.

The others sat back and continued playing games. Hegu saw Si Ningning flipping into the pig pen. He followed him and lay on the edge of the pig pen looking at Si Ningning.

　　"Why do you come over here when it smells so bad? Go over there and play with everyone."

He Gu shook his head. His small face was almost gone, and his eyes looked extra big. "You cleaned it very well. There is no smell anymore."

Yes.

Si Ningning cleaned the pig pen very cleanly.

Normally when the children were here, Si Ningning would go to Zhou Xiaocui's house to get a bucket of water to wash the ground.

 When the children were not here, she would go in and out of the space seven or eight times.

First sweeping, then flushing. If it weren't for a few pigs eating and pulling at the same time, the entire pig pen would have been cleaned spotlessly by Si Ningning.

However, because of her careful and thorough cleaning, the pig pen has long since stopped smelling. The only obvious smell is the swill delivered by each household every morning. The other three seasons are fine. The weather is hot in summer, and in the morning When you bring swill, you can basically smell the rancid smell at noon.

Si Ningning wanted to fail, but reality did not allow it.

People dislike the smell of swill, but a few pigs like it very much.

Si Ningning sighed helplessly, and inadvertently glanced at He Gu's slightly chapped lips.
