Chapter 63 Bring Two Sticks
"What's the story?"
The little brat was sobbing, his speech was clear, and bubbles of snot were coming out of his nose.
Yi Chichi found it funny, but he didn't show it at all. "Do you know Wang Erxiao?"
"Know!"
He sniffed and said in a louder voice, "Wang Erxiao is a hero. I've read his comic books."
"Then why don't you tell me his story? Let me know about Wang Erxiao's heroic deeds, too?"
His tone was gentle, and his hands were just as gentle and quick in treating his wounds.
Children all have a desire to perform, and Liu Ze is no exception. When he learned that Yi Chichi wanted to hear a story, he gorgeously forgot that he wanted to listen to a story, turned himself into a storyteller, and started talking a lot.
I have to say, this kid has a talent for storytelling. He has a great grasp of emotions and his expressions are very appropriate.
When I should be excited, I will never be calm; when I should be calm, I will never be angry. When I get angry, even my eyebrows seem to be angry.
The little expressions coupled with the emotional voices give a sense of being there.
The captain and his men were stunned as they listened nearby, while Liu Laosan and his men looked even more incredulous. How could their son (nephew) be so capable?
Soon, Liu Ze's wound was treated.
"alright!"
"ah?"
The little kid was quite shocked, "Is that all?"
"Um."
He was puzzled, "Uncle Yaozi is not that fast."
Yi Chichi,...I can't respond to this. You can't say that Uncle Yaozi is not good at dealing with external injuries.
"Anyway, you're fine now. Be good now. I'll talk to you after I've dealt with your brother and the others. Is that ok?"
The tone of negotiation made Yanagisawa feel respected and nodded, "I'll obey you, sister, you go ahead."
"good!"
After praising them, Yi Chichi began to treat the wounds of Liu Chen and the Liu couple.
Half an hour later, she finished all the treatments while packing up her things, and gently reminded, "Avoid getting wet during this period, pay attention to hygiene and disinfection, and eat a light and nutritious diet... The wound will itch during the recovery period, so don't scratch it with your hands at this time. Scratching may cause secondary damage to the wound and easily leave scars... If there is any infection such as exudation, go to the team doctor's office to find me immediately. Do you remember everything?"
“Remember!”
The four members of the family nodded in unison, each one more serious and upright than the other, looking at her with eyes full of gratitude.
"Yi Zhiqing, thank you for making this trip!"
"You're welcome. I'll go to the accounting team."
The income and expenditure of the team doctor's office belong to the team. Team members do not pay for medical treatment and it is directly recorded in the account.
At the end of the year, the accounts are settled together when the centimeters are calculated and the grain is distributed, but it is Uncle Yaozi's turn.
Now Yi Chichi is taking over Uncle Yaozi's shift, and the process is the same as before.
Liu Yongbo's family accepted this well.
After saying goodbye to Liu Yongbo's family, she left with her medicine box on her back.
Before leaving, little Liu Ze sent her to the door and said reluctantly, "Sister, can I come and play with you next time?"
"Sure, but you have to heal your wound."
"I'll take good care of you, so you have to wait for me."
"must!"
He smiled and held out a little finger, "Let's pinky promise?"
Yi Chichi smiled and shook hands with him. Liu Ze was satisfied and reminded her to be careful on the way back and not to fall again.
As soon as these words were spoken, the captain and others burst into laughter.
Yi Chichi was so angry that he said, "That's enough. I didn't know the road was so slippery."
The snow fell heavily the last few times, but it was short and cleared in time, so the road was not as slippery as it is today.
Really, if the captain and the others hadn't been unable to bear the pain and lent a hand, she would have fallen and been badly bruised.
Thinking of the difficulties she had encountered on the way here, she asked with lingering fear, "Uncle, are you going back?"
If we go back together, we can find someone to help us if we don't know how to go.
It was a good plan, but the cruel reality told her that the captain and his men had to stay and help repair the roof of Liu Yongbo's house.
Upon learning the result, she gulped and said, "It's still snowing."
"It has to be repaired even when the ice is down, otherwise Lao Si and his family will have nowhere to live."
Yi Chichi said "oh" and could only leave with regret.
I was extremely cautious on the way back, but it was no use, I fell anyway.
After returning to the Youth League, she was indignant, "This road is too difficult to walk on."
Bai Chen and his friends were busy shoveling snow. Hearing the noise, he said to her without even looking up, "I don't know who was the one who was clamoring to go to the commune to take a shower."
The implication is: It’s difficult to travel through the village, and it’s even more difficult to travel to the commune which is so far away.
Yi Chichi shrank his neck like a quail and muttered, "I didn't expect it to be so difficult to walk."
"Just wait and see."
Wang Nan got some hot water for her to wash her hands, and sighed as he looked at the snow falling from the sky, "When will this day end?"
Who knows.
Before I came to Northeast China, I thought winter in Northeast China was like this.
After coming here, they found that the winter in Northeast China and the winter in their hometown seemed to be in two different worlds.
It's nothing but scary.
If you go out without a hat and gloves and don't cover your face, you will be frozen to unconsciousness in a few minutes.
Ge Sujuan wrapped herself up like a bear and squatted in front of the fire, warming herself by the fire. When she spoke, the breath coming out of her mouth was white mist.
She said, "What do you think goes through the minds of people who get married in this kind of weather?"
"Who's getting married?"
They all said in unison, gossiping to the point of exploding.
Ge Sujuan, who realized belatedly that they were completely unaware, sighed, "Who else could it be? My fellow villager."
"The Chen Xiuxiu from Qingshan Brigade?"
Wang Nan asked curiously, and Ge Sujuan nodded, "The date has been set long ago. I have to go to Qingshan Brigade to attend the wedding tomorrow."
Yi Chichi calculated the distance between Qingshan Brigade and Kaoshantun Brigade, and patted her shoulder with sympathy, "Remember to bring two sticks with you as crutches when you go out tomorrow."
Otherwise, she was worried that Ge Sujuan would fall down before she even reached Qingshan Brigade.
"I don't want to go."
Her face was full of reluctance, and Zhou Qiuyu added, "Is the relationship good? If it's good, you have to go. If it's not, it doesn't matter whether you go or not."
At this point, she remembered something, "By the way, your fellow villager married an educated youth, or someone from the Qingshan Brigade?"
“Not an educated youth!”
Everyone understood immediately that this meant marrying a local.
Wu Yongfei asked, "What are you going to give as a gift if you go?"
"A pair of pillowcases."
In an instant, everyone thought of the pair of bright red pillowcases she had bought at the county department store.
Yi Chichi sighed, "Then you have a good relationship."
Ordinary friends would not give such high-end gifts. Nowadays, giving two cents as a gift is considered a lot. If there are poor families who have no money to give gifts, they will just pick a bunch of vegetables from the vegetable garden and give them as a gift.
Pillowcases are usually given as gifts only to close relatives.
She hummed and explained, "We grew up together and joined the same queue, so it's natural that we became closer."
