Chapter 401 I will never close my eyes in death
When I heard it, “???”
He looked at the embroidery; the fine stitches and the various colors hurt his eyes.
It was certain that this was a job he could not do no matter what.
"Will Mom?"
"……Won't."
Yi Chichi looked a little strange. When she just moved here from the Youth League Home, Wen's mother took the initiative to suggest learning embroidery in order to get closer to her, or to find a common topic.
Since her mother-in-law had brought it up, it was difficult for her to refuse.
Then one by one, they kept silent.
Fortunately, Wen's mother gave up on her own initiative, otherwise she would have had a headache.
"Don't say that in front of Mom."
Wen Shi's face was full of question marks, "Why?"
"Mom needs to save face."
Wen Shi understood immediately. This meant that she had no talent at all, but was too proud to admit her incompetence.
Fortunately, he didn't say this out loud, otherwise Yi Chichi would have applauded his imagination.
Seeing him nod in understanding, she hummed, sat down, changed her shoes, and prepared to go out. Wen Shi asked again, "Is Liu Lan as fast as you?"
"No."
Liu Lan thought that her level was quite difficult, not because her embroidery skills were poor, but because she couldn't compose the picture in her mind.
When she embroiders, she has to look at the pattern. If she is not careful, she will make the wrong stitch or get the thread color wrong.
You can only embroider for a while and then compare it with the picture. If you focus on speed, you will easily make mistakes and have to dismantle it, which will be more troublesome.
Therefore, Liu Lan's speed could not be increased.
"Are you still going out?"
"out!"
So, the couple changed their shoes and wrapped themselves up tightly before going out.
Less than ten meters away, a strong wind and heavy snow came.
Yi Chichi sighed, "I don't know what's going on this year. The sun hasn't come out many times since the beginning of winter."
"Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest. As long as there are no large-scale snow disasters, the problem is not serious."
Wen Shi was worried that she would fall, so he helped her walk slowly.
“Has there ever been a snowstorm before?”
“It has.”
The snowstorm in his childhood unconsciously emerged in his mind. He said with a lingering fear, "It was terrible. Many people froze to death that time, and many people also starved to death."
Yi Chichi, "???"
She could understand people freezing to death, because even now, people were still freezing to death.
As for people starving to death, she couldn't understand it.
After asking, I found out that the old man in the village who was in charge of weather forecasting during the snowstorm had passed away.
Although the rest could also see, they were not as accurate as the old man.
There was a time error, which resulted in the crops in the fields not being harvested and stored in time.
In addition, the kang and roof were not repaired in time. When the snow came, the crops in the fields were destroyed and many roofs collapsed.
Many people died quickly from hypothermia after being buried in the snow.
Later, when the public grain tax was paid, some people died due to insufficient food.
“That was a terrible year.”
It's really miserable.
"Thankfully, I'm fine now."
"Yes, it's fine now."
He was delighted when he heard this and said as if making a wish, "I hope our country will get better and better in the future."
"Yes."
Yi Chichi said firmly, "The sleeping dragon of the East will eventually awaken and soar into the sky once again."
Even if the timeline is very long, it will still require the efforts of at least two generations.
Even if this process will be difficult, so what?
This is simply because this country has a group of people who are willing to work anonymously and fight for the rise of a great power.
This group of people laid a strong foundation for our country's national defense.
Another group of people are willing to fight for the people's livelihood with hard work and sweat.
With such a group of people, there is no need to worry about the prosperity of the country.
Of course, there is definitely a gap between the rich and the poor, and absolute fairness is even less likely to exist.
The dark and gray areas are unlikely to disappear.
But again, as long as there are people, these things are unavoidable.
Because people’s hearts are upward, but human nature is downward.
Yi Chichi has witnessed the prosperity of later generations and felt the changes brought about by technology.
She has personally experienced the rise of a great power, so she has full confidence in the future of this country.
However, Wen Shi was not like that. Therefore, he did not have the confidence of Yi Chichi, but was a little confused instead.
“Can it really rise?”
He murmured, as if asking Yi Chichi, or also as if asking himself.
"able!"
Yi Chichi gave him an affirmative answer, "Of course it will. The future will be very good, so good that people today dare not even imagine it."
Wen Shi immediately said like a nitpicker, "How good will it be?"
"There are so many planes and ships, so big you can't even imagine them. People standing next to them feel so small..."
Speaking of this, Yi Chichi thought of the weird shooting techniques of some departments.
Being able to make a fat girl look as mini and cute as a model is actually quite impressive.
Only when you see the real thing, you will realize that it is a typical scam.
Too bad, I can’t complain.
So, she continued, "Everyone has new clothes to wear, meat will become boring, and the price of wild vegetables will be higher than meat..."
When I heard it, “!!!”
He really didn't dare to think about these things, and even if he dared to think about them, he couldn't think of them.
Big airplanes and big ships are fine, but the fact that wild vegetables are more expensive than meat is really outrageous.
"Wild vegetables aren't tasty, how could they be more expensive than meat?"
Yi Chichi smiled, "Everything is valuable because it is rare. When meat and fish are so plentiful that people get tired of them, wild vegetables become rare."
"No leafy vegetables?"
“Leafy vegetables are not rare!”
I understood when I smelled it, "You mean to eat it for a fresh feeling."
"In other words, they've had too much good time, so they want to have some hardship."
Yi Chichi remained silent. How could he describe this understanding? He couldn’t say it was wrong, nor could he say it was right.
This is the limitation of vision and imagination caused by the times.
No matter how much you say, it will never be as convincing as a personal experience.
"Live well, and when you're old you'll understand what it's like when wild vegetables are more expensive than meat."
Wen Shi's face was full of longing. "Then I really must live well. If I don't experience this kind of life once, I won't be able to rest in peace even when I die!"
As they were talking, they arrived at the team doctor's office.
Lang Hong squatted at the door, making snowballs with her hands red from the cold.
Next to her is a row of round and plump snowballs, arranged in a very neat row, which is very friendly to people with OCD.
Yi Chichi blurted out, "Xiaohong, your snowballs are so boring. Try making ducks or cats."
Lang Hong's eyes lit up. Yes, what kind of snowball was she making? A duck.
Just as he was about to start, he remembered that he didn't know how to do it, so he asked Yi Chichi with sparkling eyes, "I don't know how to pinch a duck, Chichi, can you?"
"Uncle Yaozi knows how." He even pinched her once.
There are not only ducks, but also chickens, fish and so on.
He also built a big snowman and used the raccoon's paws to make paw prints on it.
Lang Hong turned to look at Uncle Yaozi and called him "Uncle" with a smile.
Uncle Yaozi, who had been standing by with his sleeves rolled up and a helpless look on his face, rolled his eyes and said, "Don't even think about it."
He is already a mature adult and would not play in the snow like a child.
My hands are so cold.
"It's so cold, why are you two here instead of staying at home for the winter?"
His eyes fell on Yi Chichi and Wen Shi's faces, and he questioned them fiercely.
