South wing.
Bai Man is a loner and is not close to other people in the village. This is the first time he has visited a friend's house in his three years in the countryside.
She looked around the room curiously.
The south wing is spacious and bright, and its furnishings are similar to those of other houses in the village.
There was just a chipped pottery bowl filled with a bunch of threshed wheat stalks placed on the table by the window, which looked very wild.
"This is what my sister brought back."
Manman stepped forward with his short legs, put his hands on the edge of the table, and exclaimed: "Oh my, my sister put it together casually, and it's a work of art!"
Bai Man agreed very much and turned his gaze to Xia Xia.
Xiao Tuan was taken to the fields by the team leader every day. She didn't get tanned at all and inherited her mother's milky white skin.
Her eyelashes are long and black, and her big eyes are blinking, as if hiding in the starry sky.
Bai Man was so touched by the cuteness that she stretched out her hands to hug the two soft and tender little balls.
Even though her expression remained calm, the groundhog in her heart was screaming: Ahhhh, how could there be such an adorable human baby in the world.
So when Jiang Ningning brought in a pot of scented tea, she couldn't help but ask, "Do the kids have a godmother?"
Jiang Ningning:?
"You see, 놖's name is Baiman, and Manmanman늀 is a homophone. Ah! So 놖 Tian눃늀 and you are a family."
“…”
Separated.
Bai Man went to the post office excitedly and wrote a lot of words. When he was paying, he found that he didn't have much savings, so he cut down:
[Send ten sets of children's clothing quickly for your grandchildren. 】
Bai's mother and father:? ! !
-
Jiang Ningning had no idea what kind of storm the Bai family would stir up, and Bai Man forced her to accept this dry relative.
At this moment, all my attention was on another telegram brought by Captain Luo.
This letter was sent by Mr. Xue. He wrote a lot of words, asking about the status of Manman and Xiaxia, and then got to the point. The gist of it was this -
The idea of exchanging woven goods for foreign currency is very good. Feel free to do it, as you will be covered.
I will cancel your vacation and convert it into a business trip abroad.
Work hard and there will be a surprise when you return to base!
…
Now, whenever Jiang Ningning saw the word "surprise", her little heart couldn't help but beat wildly.
However, this time the old leader might be disappointed, because Bai Man is the person in charge of this matter.
Jiang Ningning went to see Bai Man with a guilty conscience.
Noticing her gaze, the latter gave her a bright and innocent smile in return.
As expected, he had never suffered the cruel beatings of society, and there was no trace of work on his body.
It was she who dragged her into the quagmire with her own hands.
It's so sinful.
This made Jiang Ningning's conscience ache slightly, and she said seriously: "Manman, if you have any problems in the future, just come and ask me."
Bai Man's eyelids twitched violently.
"Okay, okay."
Oh no, did Ningning discover something?
Unexpectedly, her father was so angry that he secretly plotted something.
This project has not yet been launched, but has already been registered in the capital, and the person in charge is still Ningning.
If it goes wrong, Ningning will definitely encounter many setbacks in her career in the future.
Ahhh, her father is such a cunning guy.
No, absolutely not.
No matter what you do in the future, you should ask Ningning first and never fall behind.
Although the ideas were far from each other, the two of them reached a tacit understanding strangely - for each other, they strived to make this project perfect!
With this psychological understanding, the two were particularly active and efficient when discussing at the captain's home.
They were originally the top leaders of the project, and each had a deeper background than the other.
The cadres in the brigade and the educated youth who participated in the work had no objections. After helping to fill in the gaps, the next time, Captain Luo announced the news on the spot.
The members of the Sixth Brigade were all excited.
"The county is going to open a weaving factory in the Sixth Brigade!"
"What? Only old people and female workers are recruited, and only girls who can read and write are recruited as apprentices."
"Is the captain crazy? Why should such a good thing be done by girls? They will get married sooner or later. Won't they take their skills to other villages?"
…
The whole village was filled with quarrels, among which the loudest ones were all wealthy and powerful ladies.
Bai Man was furious and clenched his fists tightly, "How could they do this?"
The villagers' response was completely beyond her expectations. She thought these aunts would happily send their daughters to school.
In the end, the focus of their attention is that the girl movie has taken away the job opportunities that belonged to the Yaozus?
"Why?"
Bai Man simply couldn't understand it.
"Because they are afraid that the ancestors will always be looked down upon and suppressed by the girls. They are also afraid that the girls will become knowledgeable after studying and will no longer be able to imitate male hegemony as 'mothers'." Jiang Ningning's eyes flashed with a hint of sarcasm, and her words tore through the selfish human nature beneath the surface.
Women are both victims of patriarchal culture and may also become its accomplices.
"So we have to liberate our minds from childhood, and that's the significance of what we're doing."
Bai Man was startled, then clenched his fists more firmly. She suddenly felt that some details were not yet complete, so she ran over to the educated youth to discuss it with everyone.
Jiang Ningning raised the corners of her lips silently.
She will have to return to the base sooner or later, but emancipating the mind is something that must be done persistently, and it requires people with ability and background to continue to do it.
After this incident, Bai Man will definitely be reborn and grow up. When I return to the capital, I will definitely be able to get a good job with this achievement.
"Grandma, let's go home first." Mosquitoes in May are venomous. Just standing here for a while, Jiang Ningning was bitten many times.
The two groups are not much behind.
The three girls had fair and delicate skin, and after being bitten by mosquitoes, their skin swelled up into a big red patch, which was shocking to see.
Cai Jinhua was startled and urged her distressedly: "Then go back quickly and dig up some herbs from the ground. I'll apply them on you when I get back."
The sun hasn't completely set yet and there's still some afterglow in the sky.
Jiang Ningning's body was extremely itchy. Adults could still bear it, but the two children stayed beside her listlessly, without any energy at all.
"Grandma, please be careful. Or let Second Uncle go."
Looking back, I found that there was no one where Old Man Jiang and Uncle Jiang were originally standing.
Xia Xia said in a baby voice, "Grandma Zeng just said to dig herbs, and Grandpa Zeng and his partner tiptoed away, looking a bit sneaky."
Cai Jinhua: “…”
There are two smart and thoughtful little ones in the family. "Sneaky" is an adjective in Manman's mouth, but it is a noun in the mouth of Xia Xia, an honest child.
It means that the way those two guys ran away was really eye-catching.
A nameless anger rose from the bottom of my heart. Doesn't she look like a poisonous woman who has a habit of drugging her family members?
Sooner or later her good reputation will be ruined by these two cowards.
"It's okay, go by yourself. I know the countryside very well." Cai Jinhua gritted her teeth, put her hands behind her back and went to the vegetable field.
Grandma is so strong.
Jiang Ningning smiled helplessly and hurried home with the little kids.
The setting sun in the sky slowly fell on the top of the mountain, the light became dim, and a figure followed secretly behind.
