Breakfast was delicious corn and pork wontons. Mo Yutong and the two children didn't have big appetites, so they only ate sixteen each.
Yan Mingli ate forty of them and drank up all the soup, forcing Mo Yutong to recalculate his appetite.
"We're harvesting rice today. I'll go in and change into a long-sleeved shirt later." Yan Mingli collected the dishes and chopsticks and took them into the kitchen to wash them.
Mo Yutong looked at Yan Mingcheng with questioning eyes. Why did he have to wear long sleeves when harvesting rice? Was there any particular reason for this?
"Sister, the rice leaves are very sharp and can cut you and make you bleed. There are also leeches in the fields that can suck blood and bite you." Yan Mingcheng immediately explained after noticing her look.
She had forgotten about this when she was preparing her clothes last night.
"I'll go in and prepare clothes for your eldest brother." Mo Yutong turned and went into the bedroom. The two children swept the floor and wiped the table.
There is water and leeches in the fields, so you have to wear long pants and waders.
Mo Yutong stood in front of the wooden cabinet and kept searching in the square. When he came here, he bought leather shoes and Warrior shoes, but he didn't buy waders.
Isn't this fatal? Mo Yutong was so anxious that sweat began to form on his forehead.
The consciousness kept circling in the square. What should she do? What should she do? Where could she find waders? Why hadn't she thought of buying these when she first came to Beijing?
Just when Mo Yutong was feeling frustrated and blaming herself, she suddenly saw a faint light flickering at the end of the shopping street.
She ran towards the light impatiently. If she remembered correctly, that place was a cultural and creative store.
The items sold there are very vintage, from the 1950s to the 1980s, and almost all the representative items are included:
For example, the blazer that became popular in the Soviet Union in the 1950s: loose short sleeves, pleated skirt, simple round neck, floral, plaid and stripes, and a cloth belt tied around the waist.
And the simple, capable and heroic Lenin women's clothing and the loose and baggy overalls with a white towel and a blue liberation cap...
In the 1960s, there were uniform-style quilted jackets that combined a quilted jacket and a smock, cheap and convenient slip-on shoes with elastic cuffs, long rubber bands, and slingshots...
Popular comic books from the 1970s, such as "The Biography of Yue Fei," "Generals of the Yang Family," and "Dong Cunrui," handwritten copies of "Girl's Heart," "A Pair of Embroidered Shoes," and "The Return," as well as various nationally renowned Shanghai goods...
What about Diamond and Gem Flower watches, Forever and Phoenix bicycles, Bee and Butterfly sewing machines, Red Light radios...
The red and yellow skirts that swept the country in the 1980s, the bikini that debuted in 1986, the once-popular suit shorts and fake collars, and the fashionable military coat...
Overalls, that's what she needed right now. She rushed into the cultural and creative store and took down a set of clothes in the boy's size from a row of shelves hanging on the wall. She felt relieved instantly.
Then she prepared another set for herself. After all, the scorer was supposed to check the work, and she couldn't just stand on the edge of the field and take a look!
Even if you are just pretending, you have to do it well. It would be stupid to give people a chance to talk about you on the first day.
When Yan Mingli finished packing and entered the house, he saw a little girl wearing a long-sleeved plaid shirt, overalls and waders under the mosquito net hooked up with the mosquito net hook.
Perhaps she heard his footsteps, the little girl hurriedly turned around and ran to him, pulled him over and walked towards the bed.
As they walked, he said, "Put these on. I heard Chengcheng say that rice leaves are very sharp and can cut you and make you bleed. Plus, there are blood-sucking leeches in the fields."
"Just wear it, I don't need it." It's not that he doesn't want to accept the little girl's feelings, but it's too difficult to explain where these things come from.
Mo Yutong knew what he was worried about by looking at his expression, so she pulled him aside and whispered, "You forgot! I went to the county department store the day before yesterday and bought a lot of things. So many people saw it."
"And the day before yesterday I was on the ox cart announcing my desire to pursue you. How can I pursue you empty-handed? I should at least give you some gifts!"
"You've given me enough." He saw so many new things added to the house.
"Those are all external things, not the gifts I want to give you the most." Mo Yutong suddenly lowered her head and pulled his clothes and shook them gently.
Little girl! She would not be happy if she did not scratch his heart with her claws one day, but what could he do?
Apart from looking at her lovingly and rubbing his chin against the top of her head, there was nothing else he could do, otherwise he would definitely be late for work today.
"Then I'll change my clothes." Yan Mingli looked at her with obvious intentions.
The little girl glanced at him and turned away reluctantly, "It's not like you haven't seen it before, why are you embarrassed?"
Yan Mingli couldn't help laughing when he saw her like that. He untied his belt and said in a fake tone, "How about I let you see!"
"Bah, who wants to see it? Change it quickly." Mo Yutong saw that he had actually untied it, so he ran away.
She slammed the door shut, as if she was afraid someone else would break in and see her naked body.
The young man's happy and sexy low laughter came from the room, making the girl standing outside the door blush, which looked very beautiful.
The young man quickly got dressed, opened the door and walked out. He was wearing a plaid shirt with a pointed collar, fitted overalls, and calf-high waders. He looked as energetic as could be.
"Brother Li, you are so handsome!" Mo Yutong praised sincerely. People with good looks really look good in whatever they wear.
Yan Mingli is now used to being praised by little girls. Except for his face which still feels hot, everything else is fine.
"Put on the straw hat, and this too!" A straw hat was placed on her head, and the military satchel he had brought with him was put on the little girl's back again.
This thing is so important that it cannot be left at home.
After explaining everything to their younger brother and sister, they locked the door and headed towards the brigade headquarters.
Because he learned in detail from Yan Mingli how to harvest rice, Mo Yutong took out work gloves and long-sleeved shirts from his bag and gave them to him, for fear that he would get hurt.
"You should also wear a hat." Seeing his shiny black hair, Mo Yutong couldn't help but touch the brim of his hat.
"I'm used to it, I'm not afraid! Besides, I have this." Yan Mingli pulled the white towel hanging around his neck.
He is the only one in the village who is like him. Looking around, there is no other member like him who wants to be covered from head to toe.
Mo Yutong tilted his head and thought for a moment, blinked, and said, "I still have gloves here, do you want to give them to Yang Feng and Xiong Yuan?"
Yan Mingli lowered his eyes and looked at her with a smile, "You are quite generous."
"Isn't this just because I love my family as well?" Since he comes to my house for dinner, he should be considered a friend!
Besides, Yang Feng is the assistant Yang who will walk with confidence in the future. We have been friends for decades, so we must take good care of him!
"It's enough to love my house. As for those two crows, you don't have to worry about them." Yan Mingli looked around and saw that there was no one around. He leaned over and spoke quickly in her ear.
There were people walking ahead! Now she wasn't afraid at all, but it was a pity that she couldn't go back.
In broad daylight, she could be eight feet eight inches tall in words, but as for her actions she could only slightly test the bottom line.
