Chapter 379 The Sun is Shining
Mother Wen was stunned for a moment and shook her head, "No."
"Can you get the iron pipe?"
"We can think of a way."
As for how she was going to find a solution, she didn't say, and Yi Chichi didn't ask.
No matter how good the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is, there must be a sense of boundaries.
No matter what, if Wen's mother didn't say it herself, Yi Chichi would never ask.
The same is true this time.
She said "oh" and skipped the topic.
"Mom, I'm going to work."
"good."
Mother Wen nodded, and as she turned to leave, she said, "By the way, there will be snow in the afternoon. Bring a big cotton-padded jacket when you go to pick up Xiaojiu."
After being here for so long, Yi Chizhi still doesn’t know how to check the weather.
She looked at the bright sunshine outside and was puzzled as to why her mother said there would be snow in the afternoon.
"Mom, where did you get the news? The sun is shining brightly now."
Mother Wen smiled gently and said, "Listen to what Uncle Liu and the others said."
The Uncle Liu that Wen Mu mentioned is Liu Lan’s grandfather, Uncle Liu.
The old people who play with the old man all have some unknown skills.
Sure enough, it started snowing in the afternoon.
It was unclear when it started snowing, but when Yi Chichi noticed it, the ground outside the window was already covered with a light layer of white.
“It’s snowing.”
Liu Lan, who was busy embroidering a moonlit begonia, didn't even look up when she heard the sound and said, "Let it rain. We can't stop it."
As she spoke, she glanced outside and noticed the snow was a bit heavy. She was immediately shocked and said, "Damn it, this snow is incredible."
"What?"
Yi Chichi and Wang Nan looked up at the same time. Liu Lan pointed at the snowflakes and said, "It's snowing too heavily. Based on my experience over the years, this snow won't stop anytime soon."
"Bigger than last year's?"
"It's hard to say." Then she added, "But it snows a lot here every year."
That's true.
Yi Chi Chi could only feel thankful, "Fortunately, the captain and his men had swept the roofs and repaired the beams for the orphans in the village."
Otherwise, it will be crushed again when heavy snow comes.
Zhou Qiuyu was thinking about her flesh all the time, "But we haven't divided the flesh yet, and I don't know if we can divide it today."
"able!"
Wen's mother, who had just returned from outside, gave the correct answer, "When I came back, they had already started slaughtering the last pig."
After killing the animal, we can divide the meat.
As for how much points will be distributed, it’s hard to say.
"Qiuyu, how tall are you this year?"
A full centimeter is made up of ten divisions of labor, but due to limitations in physical strength and speed, no educated youth in the Youth League can currently achieve a full centimeter.
Zhou Yadong, who works the best, can only get seven or eight centimeters.
The rest are hovering around five or six.
When Yi Chizhi was still in the Youth League, he took a three-centimeter one, which was about the same size as a child and was extremely useless.
Fortunately, she doesn't rely on food to make a living, otherwise she would starve to death.
Zhou Qiuyu's situation was much better than hers, with the lowest being five centimeters and the highest being eight centimeters.
After hearing Wen's mother's question, she silently calculated in her mind and said, "I don't know the exact number, but it must be more than a thousand."
As for how much it is, I don’t know.
Wen's mother laughed and said, "Then you can get a few pounds of meat this year."
Zhou Qiuyu's eyes suddenly widened, not caring about sewing the soles anymore. She asked excitedly, "Can we really get so much?"
"Almost."
Zhou Qiuyu smiled brightly, "I can look forward to it."
"Indeed."
The snow fell heavier and heavier, and the thickness of the light white snow on the ground began to deepen. The footprints left by Wen's mother when she came in from the yard had long been covered.
At around 3:00 p.m., the loudspeaker in Kaoshantun started to sound.
Then came the captain's loud voice—
"Are you all home? If you are, come to the team to share the meat."
This sentence was similar to the ancient siege order. As soon as the words fell, every household was eager to go out in full force.
Yi Chizhi did not go with them. Instead, after seeing off Wen's mother, Liu Lan and the others, he went to the cowshed first.
Her great aunt and Uncle Ye were not at home, they had gone to distribute the meat.
Old Mrs. Song and the others are here.
Seeing her come in with snowflakes, the old lady waved to her, "Come on and warm up on the kang."
"I won't go up."
Qin Jiu and the others were almost done with school, so she had to pick up the kids.
Otherwise you might get sick from the cold if you play too much on the road.
She walked forward and touched the kang, which was warm.
The old lady was sitting cross-legged doing needlework. Yi Chichi glanced at her and asked, "Sewing socks?"
"Well, Xiaoye's socks have a hole, so we need to mend it."
She said, "I came to see if you need anything."
A few of them exchanged glances and shook their heads, "No."
This girl is thoughtful and prepared everything for them in advance. In addition, they have received packages one after another this year, so their lives are much better than before.
"Don't worry about us all the time. We will tell you if we really need you."
"Then I'll go pick up Xiaojiu."
"Go ahead, but be careful on the road and don't fall."
"……OK."
It is impossible for your feet to slip. After all, the snow has only been there for two hours and is still quite soft. Your feet will make a crunching sound on it.
Only when your feet freeze will you start to slip.
Now, every step we take leaves a footprint.
After leaving the cowshed, Yi Chichi walked along the village road and passed by the brigade headquarters on the way.
At this time, the large army was full of people, and the biting wind and snow could not stop them from enjoying the joy of dividing the meat.
The crowd gathered in twos and threes, chatting while waiting for Li Gensheng to call out the names and centimeters and then go up to divide the meat.
As soon as he heard Zhou Qiuyu, Zhou Qiuyu at the back of the crowd immediately jumped up and shouted with his hands raised, "Uncle, I'm here, I'm here, uncles and aunts, let me in to divide the meat..."
The voice was so loud and the tone was so cheerful that Yi Chizhi, who was walking away, couldn't help but look back before walking towards the school with a smile.
The wind was strong, the snow was heavy, and the resistance was great, so it was extremely difficult for Yi Chi to walk.
Especially her face. Even though she covered it with a scarf, the exposed skin around her eyes still felt like it was cut by a knife.
However, Qin Jiu and the others were not troubled.
A group of little kids who left school early were running and jumping in the wind and snow, and from time to time they would bend down to make snowballs and have snowball fights.
Yi Chichi, “…”
Children's happiness is so simple and pure.
A little envious.
"Xiaojiu!"
Looking at the figure running happily in front of her, she stopped and shouted.
The wind carried her voice over. Qin Jiu, who was bending over to make a snowball, was stunned for a moment, then stood up and looked over.
Then--
"aunt!"
He cheered, dropped Snowball, and ran over with his schoolbag on his back.
Seeing this, Dun Dun and the others quickly followed.
Niu Niu and Ye Zi also started school and entered the first grade. When they saw their older brothers and sisters running away, they quickly ran after them.
However, his legs were too short and his steps too slow to catch up, so he shouted anxiously:
"Wait for me, wait for me!"
No one was waiting, but Qiangzi was yelling at the top of his lungs, "Run faster! Who has the patience to wait for you?"
These three little girls refused to give up. When they heard the sound, they stopped talking and ran as fast as they could.
When they ran to Yi Chichi, they all held their knees and gasped for breath.
The little face is red!
