After the villagers who had squeezed through the crowd and went home, their families were excited again and gathered around to watch.
Tang Qing and the other two went back with the clothes. The whole family watched them. Their parents repeatedly told them to work hard and not to be half-hearted like before.
Now many people in the village are keeping an eye on the work in the oil press workshop. If they dare to fail, their families will break their legs.
After Song Chu's cousin and cousin returned home, his two aunts and three uncles were all smiling from ear to ear, knowing that it was right to help Chu Chu.
The other cousins were a little envious, and the cousin's wife and her husband's wife were a little regretful that they should not have pulled their men aside in the first place.
If this happens again in the future, they will be the first to step forward and ask their men to sign up without any hesitation.
After Tang Qing and others left, Song Chu handed Gu Yue a set of work clothes of another color and style.
Gu Yue raised his eyebrows: "Me too?"
Song Chu smiled and said, "You are our technician, so of course you have what others have."
She pointed at the clothes that Gu Yue took over and said, "In order to distinguish your special status in our oil press workshop, I specially changed you into a different set of clothes."
When she was choosing clothes, she accidentally saw this work suit. It was not originally included in the exchange list, but she tricked Director Wu into exchanging it for it.
Both the comfort of the material and the style are better, and the light blue color is more in line with Gu Yue's appearance and temperament.
Gu Yue's eyes were filled with a smile, "Should I thank you for your special treatment?"
If it were in the past, he might have suspected that Song Chu was deliberately treating him differently for some purpose, but now he let it go.
Song Chu raised his hand and patted his shoulder, "Gu Xueshen, as long as you know how good I am and work hard to make more things, it will be the best way to thank me."
"..." Gu Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This woman just liked to climb up the pole.
The two walked out of the oil press workshop together, and Song Chu said, "Now that your leg is healed, I won't bring you food."
Gu Yue nodded: "Okay, from today on, you don't have to send it, I will do it myself."
The food at Song Chu's house is very good. There is meat almost every meal these days, and the ten dollars is not a waste at all.
But now that his leg has healed, he can't ask Song Chu to deliver meals to him again, otherwise he doesn't know what the villagers will say about him.
As a man, he doesn't care about those rumors, but Song Chu is a girl after all, and it's not good to be criticized too much.
If he cooks for himself, he can make more to send to his grandfather and others.
"If you get any meat in the future, could you give me some and I'll pay you?" Gu Yue wasn't the type of person who liked to put himself in a difficult position.
Song Chu chuckled and said, "It's just a little meat, no problem."
When they reached the fork in the road, they separated and Gu Yue returned to the educated youth point.
Two educated youth who also entered the oil press workshop to work had already changed into new clothes and showed them to the other educated youth.
There were two people, a man and a woman. The man was an accountant and the woman was a scorekeeper.
The other educated youth surrounded them and looked at them from left to right. Those who had not signed up before also felt a little envious and regretful.
Seeing Gu Yue coming in with clothes, the male educated youth asked with a smile: "Xiao Gu, is this also distributed by the workshop?"
He is an old educated youth, and he takes good care of Gu Yue and other new educated youth.
Gu Yue smiled faintly and said, "Yes, it was sent by Song Chu."
Gu Yue said: "I am a technician in the workshop, so the clothes are divided into different categories."
"So that's how it is. The color of your suit is really nice." The female educated youth said with a smile.
Gu Yue nodded, "You guys chat, I'll go in first."
After he went in, several educated youth smiled ambiguously.
This was definitely Song Chu's special treatment for Gu Zhiqing. As expected, no matter how fierce a woman was, she would treat the man she liked differently.
The impressions of these educated youths on Song Chu had completely changed, so they felt that the more they looked at each other, the more compatible they were.
Later, when they went out to work, they told others about this matter while chatting. Almost everyone in the village knew that Song Chu treated Gu Zhiqing differently.
Everyone sighed that it turned out that the village tyrant also had a gentle side.
Song Chu, who was pushing the door open and going home, had no idea that this would happen, otherwise he would have been extremely upset.
She simply thought that the suit was more suitable for Gu Yue, and she also wanted to win over this academic genius and technical talent. It had nothing to do with liking him, but that's how the misunderstanding arose.
After dinner, Song Chu looked at Song Youfu and said, "Dad, do you want to do something?"
Song Youfu was stunned. He tried to ask, "You don't want me to go with those old people and carry oil to exchange for things, do you?"
Actually, it is not impossible. He just saw those old people going home with their work clothes, and he felt a little moved and envious.
But it was impossible for him to bring it up to his daughter. That would be too embarrassing. Besides, he was not that old.
Song Chu smiled and said, "No, I remember that you are very good at carpentry, so I wanted you to help make a few wooden boxes."
"Making a wooden box? For storing clothes?" Song Youfu remembered that his daughter seemed to have a lot of clothes.
Song Chu shook his head, "It's not for storing clothes, it's for growing vegetables."
She recently ate in the cafeterias of a machinery factory and a garment factory, and found the dishes to be rather bland.
In fact, it is the same in their village. The public fields are almost all used to grow grains, and only some vegetables are grown on each family’s private plots, and the quantity and variety are very limited.
Because her eldest brother planted a lot of cabbage and vegetables on the wasteland outside the pigpen, their family could often stir-fry some vegetables. Many families in the village had mixed-grain porridge with pickles for lunch and dinner.
Song Youfu asked in confusion: "Can you grow vegetables in a wooden box?"
"Yes! I saw a method of growing vegetables in wooden boxes in a book. It doesn't require occupying the public land in the village. So I thought of growing some at home to eat, or giving them as gifts to others." Song Chu thought of the one-meter vegetable garden in modern times.
A one-meter vegetable garden is a perfect home vegetable garden that uses the smallest area, making use of the balcony or open space in the yard to grow vegetables.
Here she can use the yard and unused space outside to do this.
She had seen a document before that said a 1.2*1.2 square meter wooden box vegetable garden could produce more vegetables than a traditional 2.4*3 square meter vegetable plot.
Each wooden box can be divided into sixteen compartments, and different vegetables can be planted in each compartment. Not only can you eat fresh vegetables frequently, but the varieties can also be diversified.
She was not going to put this in an oil press workshop, but to make it at home first. She would let her fourth brother sell the first two batches of vegetables on the black market and earn some money to exchange for daily necessities and malted milk and the like, and also save some money for the family.
Once their family succeeds, I guess other people in the village will follow suit and grow crops in this way. It's not something that requires a lot of technical skills and can be learned easily. It's also easy to popularize, so there's no need to hide it.
