Chapter 458 Missing a tooth is also cute
Yi Chichi smiled and hugged him, "Just got back today."
Qin Jiu said "oh", then pulled her hand. He had a lot to say, but he swallowed it back and said, "Aunt, are you here to pick me up?"
"yes."
Yi Chichi smiled and asked, "Are you very happy?"
"have!"
Lang Hong and the others were also very happy at this time because the captain bought everything they needed.
Just a little bit——
“What a shame there’s no meat!”
Qi Yang's words stunned Yi Chi Chi for a moment, "Are you short of meat again?"
Zhang Yunhao smiled bitterly, "What do you mean by 'lack of meat again'? We've been short of meat all year round, and now it's even worse, we're short of oil too."
Speaking of oil, Zhou Qiuyu and the others all looked downcast and sighed.
Upon asking, I found out that they were not only short of oil, but also daily necessities, and were forced to use wood ash to wash clothes.
As for the culprit who caused this result, it was none other than Zu Ting, an educated youth who arrived in the same group as Lang Hong.
This girl is really talented. She likes to do things that make people so excited that they want to blow her head off while wearing an extremely pure face.
Ever since Wu Yongfei and Ge Sujuan got married and moved out of the Youth League Home, the Youth League Home has started working in shifts again to solve the food problem.
Others have no problem cooking, but when it’s Zu Ting’s turn, she can use up half a month’s worth of oil in one meal.
Buying soap requires an industrial roll, and she uses the soap brushes, and then uses someone else's after using up her own.
The soap that Qi Yang and his friends had been saving was used up by her in just a few days.
It's hard to say. After all, she was enthusiastic and helped wash clothes other than underwear, saying that washing together would save water and soap.
Water is indeed saved, but soap is not saved at all.
However, they don’t have enough industrial rolls, what should they do if they run out of soap?
Use soapberries.
As a result, she used it more and more. Besides, the soapberry tree was only so big, and the soapberries it produced were used not only by the educated youth, but also by the villagers in the village.
If one family gets a share, it will be gone.
How could it withstand Zu Ting's use?
Then, Qi Yang and his friends, who had neither soap nuts nor soap, were forced to use wood ash.
Yi Chi Chi was speechless. She wondered, "You all know what kind of temper she has, why do you still dare to ask her to cook and wash clothes?"
Lang Hong's smile was uglier than crying. "She wasn't so outrageous at first. Plus, we were really busy and tired during the autumn harvest, and she also swore to be careful, but it turned out like this."
What could Yi Chichi say? He could only say in his heart, "It's what I deserve."
but--
"Where is she?"
"She went to visit her sister's relatives on the farm. She said she was going to get some tickets."
The farm pays wages and issues invoices. Apart from the fact that the work is as hard as Qi Yang and the others, they are much better than them in other aspects.
"She'd been there once before and brought back a lot of tickets."
Yi Chichi finally understood. No wonder they trusted Zu Ting again and again. Although this girl was loose in the end, she was able to make up for it.
Thinking of this, she swallowed the "I Have Industrial Volume" that was about to come out of her mouth and changed it to -
"Are you still going to class today?"
"No!"
Glancing at Dundun and the others who were sitting obediently on the kang next to them, and then at Qin Jiu who was clinging to Yi Chichi, Qi Yang smiled and said, "Usually, classes only go on until this time."
Zhuangzhuang's eyes lit up, "Brother Qi Yang, can we go home now?"
"Go back, be careful on the road!"
So, Dun Dun and the others cheered, got off the bed, put on their shoes, packed their textbooks, put on their backpacks, and rushed out, shouting that they could have snowball fights and so on.
Qin Jiu and Niu Niu did not follow the main group to rush out. Instead, they came to her with their schoolbags on their backs, held her hands on both sides and went home.
Yi Chichi said hello to Zhou Qiuyu and the others, then led the two of them out.
After not seeing her for a while, Niu Niu has changed a lot.
First, she grew a little taller, and second, she started to change her teeth.
There is a missing front tooth, and there is a gap when I smile.
Probably because she had been laughed at before, she covered her mouth with her hands when she spoke.
At first, Yi Chi didn't realize that she was just changing her teeth and thought there was something wrong with her mouth.
When asked, the little girl covered her mouth shyly and said, "I'm changing my teeth, it doesn't look good."
Yi Chichi said, "...teething is a normal process. All children go through this. Once the teeth grow back, you will look good again. There is no need to feel inferior or embarrassed."
"My mother also laughed at me and called me a gap-mouthed girl."
"That's her fault. Next time she calls you that, tell her you're unhappy."
It would be bad enough for a mother not to comfort her daughter when she feels inferior, but she also makes fun of her. Yi Chichi really doesn't understand her mentality.
"When your brother Xiao Jiu was changing his teeth, we didn't laugh at him."
Niuniu stretched her head out to look at Qin Jiu, "Brother Jiu, is there really no one laughing at you?"
"No!" Qin Jiu laughed, "I openly let people know that I'm changing my teeth. Just like my aunt said, this is a normal phenomenon that everyone will experience."
At this point, he said to Niuniu, "It's you who hides your concern, and that's why others laugh at you."
He also taught her what to do, "Just show it openly, laugh when you want to laugh, and have fun when you want to play. If you don't care, others won't stare at your mouth."
She was half-believing and half-doubting what Yi Chichi said, but she took Qin Jiu's words to heart.
She lowered her hand that was covering her mouth and grinned at Yi Chichi, "Auntie, am I ugly?"
Yi Chi Chi looked at her carefully for a long time and shook his head, "She's not ugly. Our Niuniu is actually very pretty. She's also very cute with a missing tooth."
"Really?"
"Really, Auntie doesn't lie."
Niu Niu became happy, holding her hand and jumping around, saying that after she went to the island, she did not slack off, but learned embroidery seriously.
"I know. I saw the little handkerchiefs you embroidered."
Qin Jiu immediately asked, "Is she good at embroidery?"
"...very good for her age."
It’s too early to make money.
However, a solid foundation in engineering will be of great benefit to her in deepening her career in this field.
"Have you finished the embroidery?"
"I still have thread and cloth. My aunt gave me lots of scraps of cloth, and I practiced with them."
The aunt that Niu Niu mentioned is Yu Rutang's mother and Aunt Ma's sister. She has a wide network of contacts, so it's not surprising that she can get scraps of cloth.
"So you embroidered all sorts of little handkerchiefs and gave them away?"
She chuckled proudly, "Teacher Wang and the others were very serious in class. I embroidered too much, and grandma and her family couldn't use it all, and they couldn't bear to use it to make shoes, so they asked me to give it to the teachers."
It turned out that it was Aunt Ma and the others who came up with the idea.
I knew it, how could such a young child give away handkerchiefs everywhere.
Qin Jiu said aggrievedly, "You didn't even send me off."
"You do."
Niuniu said confidently, "Auntie embroidered several for you, and the patterns are more beautiful than mine."
"That's different."
Qin Jiu argued, "My aunt gave it to me. You said we were good friends. Then Dun Dun and Dawa both had it, so why don't I have it?"
"Zhuangzhuang and the others don't have it either."
Niuniu explained in an orderly manner, "As for giving it to Dundun and Da Wa, it's because they love to wipe their noses with their sleeves. It's dirty!"
