Chapter 42 Asking for Leave to Go to the County
The two of them fried pine nuts together, and the aroma of the pine nuts soon wafted out.
Smelling the scent, Gao Le and Zhao Su came over shamelessly.
The other educated youth noticed the flash in his eyes and wanted to wait and see.
Xu Lai Di, who was thick-skinned, followed Gao Le and the others when she saw them coming.
"It smells so good! Song Zhiqing, you picked up so many pine nuts."
“These pine nuts are so big!”
Two tall men stood next to the stove, making the stove look smaller.
"Well, there are plenty of them in the mountains. You can go there to pick pine nuts after work."
Gao Le and Zhao Su became interested in this: "Okay, we'll go look for it tomorrow."
For them, it's all work or play.
Xu Laidi stretched her neck to look into the pot, her eyes full of greed, wishing she could take all the pine nuts for herself.
"Song Zhiqing has so many pine nuts, can you give me some?"
Song Wei glanced at Xu Lai Di and said, "We are not close enough to share things, right?"
They just had a fight a few days ago. Xu Laidi is so shameless.
"Don't be so stingy. They are all educated youth. What's wrong with sharing some things? Even if they are found in the mountains, they are not valuable."
Li Juan mocked: "I haven't seen you share anything with us. You're always trying to take advantage of others. How dare you say you're stingy? You're the stingiest person in the entire Youth League."
Ever since the last falling out, Li Juan is no longer as submissive as before, and would retort to Xu Lai Di from time to time.
Xu Lai Di glared at Li Juan fiercely: "I didn't talk to you. This pine nut belongs to Song Zhiqing. Why are you talking so much when I ask her?"
Song Wei stir-fried the pine nuts: "Sorry, I don't like it."
Xu Lai Di grumbled unwillingly: "You are not willing to give me even a few pine nuts. You deserve that Luo Zhiqing doesn't want you."
Song Wei: "Get lost, if you say one more word, I'll slap you."
Xu Lai Di was still afraid. She didn't know what Song Wei had grown up eating. She looked easy to bully, but she had a bad temper and would hit people at any time. The key point was that even the strong male educated youth couldn't beat her.
She left mumbling something, and it was obvious that she had nothing nice to say.
Li Juan rolled her eyes: "You spend the whole day thinking about how to take advantage of others. You are so shameless."
Gao Le came over with a flattering smile: "Sister, I won't take advantage of you, can I buy some pine nuts?"
This is more fragrant than the melon seeds he brought.
Song Wei didn't have many pine nuts: "I can only give you one pound, and I have to send the rest to my brother."
Gao Le blinked: "You have to send it out."
He hasn't sent anything home yet. He wonders if sending something back will make his parents feel sorry for him and send him more money, bills, bacon, or something like that.
should work.
Gao Le turned his head and muttered something to Zhao Su. They both decided to go to the mountains to look for pine nuts and other nuts tomorrow.
Song Wei fried the pine nuts and remembered Heidan who was still taking a bath. She put down the shovel and went to the backyard.
"Heidan, have you finished washing?"
Heidan was wearing the clean clothes that Song Wei prepared for him. These clothes were also Song Wei's old clothes, and they looked like a skirt on Heidan.
"I'm fine."
Not only did he take a bath, he also poured out the bath water and cleaned the area in the backyard.
He is really a very sensible and worry-free child.
There were no shoes that Heidan could wear, so he had to go barefoot as before for the time being, but he had to wash his feet again before going to bed.
"We are going to make mushroom sauce. Come and help me pick out the mushrooms with more flesh."
"good."
Heidan responded happily, followed Song Wei like a little tail, and squatted on the ground next to her to sort mushrooms.
But he had not forgotten those rabbits. From time to time he stood up and stretched his little neck to look into the basket.
The rabbits were probably full and were huddled together to sleep. He looked at them with a silly smile on his face.
After the pine nuts were fried, Song Wei, Li Juan and a little boy named Heidan worked overtime until about eleven o'clock to boil all the mushrooms into mushroom sauce.
Including the previous ones, Song Wei used the large glass jars borrowed from Li Juan to pack three jars. Now that there are no jars, she can only use large bowls temporarily.
The aroma of mushroom sauce was so fragrant that it drifted to other places. The educated youth in some rooms tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
Liu Linlin tossed around in bed for a while, then sat up and cursed towards the backyard.
"Can't we sleep? You guys should pay attention to the time when you're working. We still have to work tomorrow!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Xu Laidi was so greedy that her saliva was flowing out, and the look in her eyes when she looked towards the backyard was full of envy and jealousy.
"Pah... you only know how to eat. I wonder how you're going to feed yourselves if you keep doing this."
If it was just Li Juan making mushroom sauce, she would take advantage of it no matter what, but Song Wei... she was afraid of being beaten.
No, he or she has to leave work early tomorrow to pick mushrooms to eat.
Song Wei and Li Juan pretended not to hear.
Li Juan also took out three whole grain steamed buns: "This smells so good. Here, have some."
Although the steamed buns were a bit scratchy to the throat, the three of them were very satisfied with the fragrant mushroom sauce.
Little Heidan's cheeks, which didn't have much flesh on them, were bulging from eating so much.
"Finally I can sleep."
Song Wei stretched, said goodbye to Li Juan, took Heidan to wash his feet, and then lay down on the kang to sleep.
It was the first time he slept on a kang, and it was so spacious and clean, with fragrant bedding. Heidan was so excited and awkward that he didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
He was afraid that his little black hands would dirty the quilt.
"Sister Song, I'd better go back to sleep where I was yesterday."
Song Wei pushed him into the kang and said, "Go to sleep. I have already taken apart the broken bed board."
Heidan was so scared inside that he didn't dare to move.
"It's not broken at all. It's fine."
He murmured in a small voice, "It's much better than my little bed made of hay."
His bed at the Lin family was very small because the rest of the bed was covered with firewood.
Below was the hay that we had found ourselves. In the summer we didn’t even have quilts, but in the winter they were afraid that we would freeze to death so they gave us a hard, tattered quilt that was not comfortable at all.
"Sister Song, you are so nice..."
The child mumbled this sentence and then fell silent. Song Wei looked over and found that he had fallen asleep.
She tucked the quilt into Heidan and closed her eyes to sleep.
The next morning, Song Wei got up early and went to the team leader to ask for leave, using the excuse that she needed to go to the hospital for a follow-up visit.
In fact, since she came here, she only felt uncomfortable on the first day, but she felt refreshed after a good night's sleep.
The original owner's body was relatively weak. She looked sickly for two reasons: one was because she looked like that, and the other was because of mental illness. She didn't have a good life at home and was frowning every day, which made her look even sicker.
But after the core was replaced by Song Wei, her special ability also came along. Looking at the green mountains and clear waters, her mood was so cheerful. Heart disease? That thing doesn't exist at all.
