Chapter 366: Su Zi is not good at handwork
"Okay, Ah You, come sit over here and I'll teach you together."
Yan Ning did not say that this is something only girls learn. Since the children are interested, she will not be a spoiler.
"First, put..."
Yan Ning explained in great detail, describing each step very clearly. After she was done, she would ask the two people if they understood. Only after getting a positive answer would she proceed to the next step.
After listening to the explanation, Su Zi was full of confidence. He took the knitting needles and wool and started to work.
However, after a while, she looked at the tangled ball of thread in her hands and the lump on the knitting needles and fell into deep thought.
When I went to see Su Yunyou again, he had already mastered it and had knitted several rows.
She looked at Yan Ning with innocent eyes, not understanding what went wrong.
Yan Ning was trying to hold back her laughter, but when she saw Su Zi's reaction, she couldn't hold it back any longer and burst out laughing.
"Mom~~" Su Zi hummed sadly.
"Nannan, you have never been good at handicrafts since you were a child. The more delicate the work, the worse it is for you to do it. We still need to have a clear understanding of ourselves."
"Our Ah You is very skillful. Just knit it like this. Knit a scarf first, and I will teach you how to close the stitches at the end."
Su Zi wrinkled his nose, looked at Su Yunyou who was dizzy with praise, then saw the mess in his hands. Finally, he stuffed the things back into the bag of wool, thinking out of sight, out of mind.
She continued to lie down, turned her head and took a sip of the orange juice prepared by Su Yunyou, and swung her legs comfortably with her legs crossed.
…
Xia country.
Going back to hometown to celebrate the New Year every year has become an unspoken rule in the family. Su Zi leaves the base early and goes home, driving back to his hometown in the countryside with Liu Juan and others.
When I got home, my two uncles had already helped clean the house. Even the fireplace was lit, making the living room warm.
Su Zi still didn't give up. When she was free, she pestered Liu Juan to teach her how to knit a scarf.
Liu Juan was still surprised, "You are not good at manual work, let's not waste our time."
"Mom~~ I want to learn, please teach me."
"Well, okay, okay, I'll go to your aunt's house to find tools."
Seeing her daughter leaning on her and acting coquettishly, Liu Juan's heart had already softened and she was unable to say anything to refuse. Su Guishan, who was standing by, almost tried to persuade Liu Juan to agree.
"Thank you, Mom~"
When Liu Juan came back, her eldest aunt and second aunt followed her.
The three of them taught Su Zi acupuncture together.
An hour later, Su Zi gave up, and Liu Juan and her two sisters-in-law also breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Zi looked at the rag with holes all over it in his hand, crumpled it up and stuffed it back into his pocket.
She vowed never to touch anything handmade again.
The next day, slaughtering a pig at home alleviated her depression.
This pig was raised by my uncle when he had nothing to do at home, and he was waiting for them to come back during the Chinese New Year to kill it and have a lively pig-killing banquet.
Everyone in the village who had free time came to help with cutting, washing and rinsing.
At noon, the pig-killing banquet began.
The pig intestines were made into stir-fried pig intestines with pickled cabbage, stir-fried pig liver, twice-cooked pork, blood curd, kidney beans stewed with pig stomach, crispy pork, pig lung stewed with cabbage, and green peppers fried with pork lard. Braised pork.
Each dish is generous in portion and served in a bowl.
Four tables were set before we sat down.
At the table, many people toasted Su Zi. When they saw that there was Coke in Su Zi's cup, no one said anything. Everyone was happily saying words of praise.
"Time flies so fast. I still remember when Xiao Su was in primary school in the village, she was small, quiet, and didn't like to laugh, but she had good grades. In the blink of an eye, she has grown into a big girl and the most promising person in the village. So I think we should still read books, and knowledge will not let anyone down."
"Yes, I've always thought this child has a bright future. Look at her eyes. Many officials have this type of eyes."
"Xiaoyan, you have to learn from your aunt Suzi and study hard."
When Su Zi heard these compliments, he just smiled indifferently.
People really do beautify their own memories. Those who praise her now were also the ones who scolded their family the most when she was young.
She scolded her mother Liu Juan as a hen that couldn't lay eggs, and called herself a cheap girl, saying that it was useless to read so many books and that she would belong to someone else's family after she got married.
They scolded their father Su Guishan for being useless and a coward, and for being controlled by a woman. If it were them, they would have divorced him and married someone who could give birth to a son.
They cursed them for being extinct, occupied their land, and parked their cars randomly in front of their house.
Today, they came uninvited to help, saying only nice things, forgetting the dirty words that were as sharp as knives, and the sarcastic remarks she made when she was running the farm stay in the village.
All these things can only prove that they have ulterior motives.
Su Zi drank the drink in the cup in one gulp.
She watched quietly as these people racked their brains to come up with words to praise her.
Everyone at the dinner table was a shrewd person. Seeing others praising her so much, and her response being just a polite and distant smile, these people knew that their plans had failed.
But a shameless person is the least likely to read people’s faces, and even if someone understands, he won’t care.
After dinner, when Su Zi was about to leave, several of them chased after her and surrounded her.
"Niece, you are so successful now. The medicinal material base in the village is yours, and the farm stay is also yours. You have started so many businesses outside. Do you want to arrange a job for your brother?"
"Xiao Su, to be honest, I have studied the knowledge of medicinal herb planting in the past few years. You can let me do a small management at the medicinal herb base at will, and I can manage it properly for you. We are all relatives from the same village. There is no reason for a good job to take care of outsiders. Give me a small management position, and I promise not to let you down."
"Zi Zi, your nephew did not perform well in the exam this year and did not get into a good school. As you know, his grades are usually very good, always in the top 30 in the class. We wanted him to repeat the grade, but he felt ashamed and refused to go."
"Can you help me get him into a better school?"
"It's okay to use connections, but will you be fully responsible for all the expenses in the process, third brother?" Su Zi looked at this cousin with a smile.
What poor performance? She knew very well that this cousin's son's grades were all cheated.
At this moment, she exuded a very majestic aura, and there seemed to be sarcasm in her eyes, but everything seemed peaceful, as if the sarcasm was just their illusion.
They felt that the person standing in front of them was not a young girl who was easy to fool.
He is a superior who has seen a lot and has accumulated great power, and his attitude as a person in power is clearly revealed.
The elder brother laughed dryly and said, "Xiao Su, you also know my family situation. How can we afford to use these connections?"
"But don't worry, as long as you use your connections to send your nephew to school, he will work for you after he graduates to repay your kindness."
