Chapter 296 Threatening Death
"How much?"
Yi Chichi gestured with his hands, "This much."
When I heard it, "..."
I feel like there's no need to adjust the height at this point, just find something to pad it out.
But since my wife has mentioned it, let’s adjust it.
"Please move aside."
Yi Chichi said "oh", stood up, watched him adjust the height in a few seconds, tried it again and nodded with satisfaction, "This is enough."
"Should I buy you a paperweight?"
"What to buy?"
Yi Chizhi, suspecting that she was hallucinating, scratched her ears. Did she hear it wrong or did she say it wrong? She didn't write calligraphy, so why did she buy a paperweight?
"The one with the wrist rest."
Wen Shi gestured and said, "The previous one has both."
Yi Chi Chi's mouth twitched, "That's a handrest, not a paperweight."
"Oh yeah, a handrest, do you want to buy one?"
"No, just take down the previous one and install it."
This job still needs to be done by Wen Shi.
Then, under Yi Chichi's command, he installed the armrest.
"Would you like to try embroidering it?"
"Can."
Yi Chichi sorted out the threads and hung them up, then pulled out a thread from the black branch line. Wen Shi thought she was about to start, but Yi Chichi moved her fingertips and the thread was divided into several parts.
If it weren't for his good eyesight, he wouldn't be able to see the line.
"...Wife, won't it break if it's so thin?"
It feels similar to spider silk, it's so thin.
"Won't."
Yi Chichi, who was fond of thread, threaded the needle skillfully and then confidently placed the first stitch on the silk.
When Wen Shi saw this, he looked up at the light bulb above his head that was glowing with a halo, and felt that the light was still a little dim. After thinking for two seconds, he tiptoed into the house, and after a few seconds he came back with a flashlight and turned it on.
In an instant, the light in the area where she inserted the needle became much brighter.
Yi Chichi paused and said, to be honest, this was a good intention.
She was also very moved, but it was just a feeling of being moved.
"Let's destroy it."
"Why?"
Wen Shi obediently turned off the flashlight, but his heart was full of doubts.
"The light is originally even, but when you turn on the flashlight, it becomes uneven, which is bad for eyesight."
Worried that he might think too much, she comforted him, "Besides, I'm only embroidering two threads, it won't take long."
Wen Shi uttered an "oh" as if he understood something, and sat next to her, watching her hands threading the needle like a butterfly on the almost transparent silk.
The threads were too thin, and I had just started embroidering, so nothing could be seen after embroidering with two threads.
Feeling that he was alone, Wen Shi couldn't help but ask her out of curiosity, "Wife, what are you embroidering now?"
"Tigers and leopards."
"I know. I was asking which part you embroidered."
"head!"
This answer made him silent. He leaned over to take a look. Well, he really couldn't see anything.
Sure enough, the saying "skills require pretense" is not a joke.
Thinking of this, he stood up and said, "I'll go boil some water for you to take a bath."
"good."
It takes some time to boil the water. Yi Chichi, who had originally planned to stop, thought she could embroider for a few more minutes.
However, she has a bad habit of getting lost in the work once she starts working.
Wen Shi, who had boiled the water, shouted several times but got no response. He had no choice but to come to her and pinch her face, "Wife, it's time to take a bath and go to bed."
"Can I embroider it tomorrow?"
Yi Chichi suddenly realized, "Have you boiled the water?"
"Okay."
That was pretty quick. Looking at the thread in her hand, she said, "I've finished this one."
"……good."
After five minutes, she stopped and was delighted when she heard this, "Can I put my things away now?"
Before he finished speaking, he was about to take action.
Yi Chichi quickly stopped him, "No need to collect it, just leave it here."
These threads cannot be touched randomly. She has scattered them one by one, and it will be a hassle to sort them out later if they are tangled into a tangle.
It’s better to just leave it there and pack it up together when you go back.
Wen Shi has many advantages, and being obedient is definitely one of them.
Yi Chichi said to leave it there, and he obediently said "oh" and followed her around to help her take a bath, and he couldn't be driven away.
If your tone is a little harsh, he will act coquettishly, cute and pitiful.
There was nothing Yi Chichi could do but follow him.
After a crazy half night, Yi Chichi, who slept soundly until noon the next day, was awakened by the sound of knocking on the door.
“Who is it?!”
She got up from the bed sleepily, smoothed her messy hair with her fingers, and just put her shoes into slippers when she heard a familiar voice outside the door.
"Sister, open the door. I'm Jiang Xingxing."
The follow-up of the melon is coming.
Yi Chichi came to his senses instantly, "Here it comes."
She ran to the door as if her butt was in a hurry to open it, and Jiang Xingxing's bright smiling face came into her sight. Yi Chichi's eyes fell on her hair. The big, thick, black braid had turned into short hair that reached her ears.
"Sister, you just got up?"
"yes."
"Then go brush your teeth and wash your face. I'm not in a hurry."
There is indeed no rush.
But the proper way of hospitality must be there.
"You sit here and drink tea. There are snacks on the plate. Take whatever you want."
After completing the entire process of serving tea and snacks and settling everyone down, Yi Chichi went to wash up.
Jiang Xingxing couldn't sit still and had no interest in drinking tea on a hot day, so she took a few lychees and followed her, saying, "My dad promised to find a teacher for me."
This is a good thing.
"But judging from my dad's tone, it might be a little difficult."
That's true. Nowadays, intellectuals with real talent and knowledge have a hard time.
"My dad asked me if I was determined to pursue a career in mechanical design and whether I would give up halfway."
Yi Chichi said vaguely, "How did you reply?"
"You must be determined and you can't give up halfway."
She chuckled and said, "I cut all my hair off to show my determination to my dad."
This determination is indeed well expressed.
This girl takes her hair very seriously.
According to Aunt Guan, ever since she learned to speak human language, she won't let anyone touch her hair.
When I was old enough that I couldn’t even straighten my arms, I learned how to comb and tie my hair by myself.
From childhood to adulthood, she had only had her hair trimmed at the ends and cut short...
Not to mention the door, there's not even a crack left for the window.
According to legend, her grandmother said that it was not good for a girl to have long hair, so she wanted to cut her hair. As a result, Jiang Xingxing cried so hard that she threatened to commit suicide.
Now, in order to show her determination, she has cut off her long braid that she has cherished for more than ten years. If Comrade Jiang is not allowed to fulfill his wish, he would probably feel ashamed of his daughter's black hair.
"Your path to studying mechanics is probably a good one."
"Hey, I think so too."
Perhaps the road to her dream was right before her eyes, Jiang Xingxing was in an unusually good mood, "Sister..."
She looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she lowered her voice and asked softly, "I asked around and found that many books on mechanical medicine are in foreign languages. Did you know about this?"
Yi Chichi is very clear about this matter. Nowadays, my country is in a relatively backward state in all aspects, and the high-precision major is no different from a blank sheet of paper.
