"What...what happened?"
Wei Ci didn't understand why.
"Isn't the pattern on the handkerchief around this bastard's neck Su embroidery? Judging by the stitching, it should be Su embroidery. Where did it come from? Also, the fabric looks like satin, right? Hiss! Where did this prodigal son come from?"
Wei Man was so disappointed with his friend that he looked heartbroken.
"Yeah, I embroidered it, what's wrong?"
Wei Yang marveled at this. This person who had been dumb for over a decade had actually become proficient in embroidery and needlework after regaining consciousness? Why not try being dumb for a few years too?
"You can embroider? Where did you learn it?"
Wei Man had the same puzzled expression. Why hadn't she heard her grandmother mention that anyone in her great-grandfather's family could embroider? So where did she learn it?
Wei Ci choked, "It's over!" Her eyes began to dart from side to side, feeling guilty.
"She learned it from a female comrade who came to support her a few years ago."
Wei Qingfeng answered calmly and touched Wei Ci's little head which was a little angry.
Wei Man and the others suddenly realized what was going on.
During the Great Leap Forward from 1958 to 1960, several college students came to the village, saying they were there to support the rural area in completing the 10.7 million tons of steel production task. The title was very impressive.
At first everyone was very surprised, but who would have thought that after a while, apart from turning each household's kitchen knives, iron pots and farm tools into waste slag, they did nothing else. Even the few century-old trees in the back mountain were cut down by them to make steel. During that time, the village was in chaos and full of resentment.
The people in the village had a lot of grievances. After the big pot meal was disbanded, not only were they dumbfounded because they had no tools to work in the fields, but even everyone at home cooked in clay pots. Sometimes, to cook a meal for the whole family, they had to cook in three large clay pots in a row, and it might not be enough. Later, the college students themselves could not stand it anymore, and returned to the city in disgrace amid the disgust of everyone in the village.
"No wonder, I remember they seemed to be from Suzhou and Hangzhou, right? Oh my, our Ah Ci is amazing! She was able to learn Suzhou embroidery in such a short time, and she embroiders so well!"
Wei Ci's little head lowered little by little due to the praise, and her earlobes turned red almost dripping with blood because she felt guilty.
She secretly glanced at Wei Qingfeng and saw that he didn't seem to care about her abnormality at all, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
Wei Qingfeng calmly withdrew his gaze, a hint of smile in his eyes. How could he not help but praise him so much?
"Aci! My grandmother is a descendant of Hunan embroidery. The flowers and birds she embroiders are so beautiful! I have a few more embroidery patterns. I'll bring them to you someday. Can we exchange some ideas?"
Wei Ci nodded. She was not at all worried about communicating. She was interested in everything since she was a child. She knew a little bit about everything but was not proficient in any of them. The only thing she was proficient in was embroidery.
After all, I stay in a square little courtyard every day. Apart from taking care of the farmland, fruit trees, flowers and plants in the space, I just move a small stool and sit there embroidering to pass the time.
"Okay, let's do it together sometime."
"It's settled then. Grandma will be very happy if she knows."
Her grandmother supported her uncle and her father by embroidery. She was old and her eyesight was a little blurry, but the old lady would still be full of energy when talking about embroidery.
Wei Yang poked Wei Ci and whispered something about Fourth Grandma in her ear.
"Fourth Grandma was a maid bought by a landlord. I heard she was an embroiderer. Later, she followed her master all the way from Hunan to the border areas. After the civil war, the landlord's family couldn't make a living there and decided to leave the country. Because Fourth Grandma didn't want to leave, she was arranged to marry Fourth Grandpa before she left. It's a pity..."
Unfortunately, the two had been married for less than ten years, and their eldest son had just grown up when the fourth grandfather was forcibly captured by the Japanese and taken to an illegal mine to work. He never came out again. Only left were their eight-year-old son and the fourth grandmother, who was less than thirty years old and one month pregnant.
Wei Ci and the other man sighed deeply.
"The barbaric and small nation deserves death!"
Wei Yang nodded affirmatively: "That's why Uncle Jue is called Wei Jueri."
The two men shared the same hatred for the enemy and looked like they were about to fight, which amused Wei Man who was eavesdropping.
"You two young girls have great ambitions. If you were born twenty years earlier, there wouldn't be any devils around."
The two of them had a big fight.
After seeing the two off, Wei Ci ran to Wei Qingfeng with a curious look on her face.
"Second brother, is there a possibility that Fourth Grandpa is not dead? After all, there is no body to be found, right?"
The smile in Wei Qingfeng's eyes faded a lot, and he rubbed his sister's hair: "Yes, my Ah Ci's words are true to her words. Fourth Grandpa may not really be dead."
This can only fool those innocent little girls, after all, they have beautiful hearts.
But what he didn't say was that it wasn't that the body couldn't be found, but that after digging up the mine, no complete body could be pieced together. Even Fourth Grandpa was recognized based on a birthmark on his thigh. My father said that when he was found, he looked unrecognizable as a human. Fourth Grandma even fainted and didn't wake up for several days.
It was obvious that they had won, they were only one step away, just that one step away. Fourth Grandma could wait for her husband, and Guangzong and Jueri could wait for their own father. What a pity...
Later I learned that after the Japanese surrendered, some unwilling beasts blew up the mine with explosives after their main force withdrew, almost razing it to the ground.
Tens of thousands of miners died.
Many people knew about these events back then, but as the days passed, they were gradually forgotten, except for the relatives who could not get over it, until they could no longer remember them and forgot all the hatred.
The brother and sister sighed, for those who died in vain, and also for the fact that Fourth Grandpa never got to see his parents, wife, and children again until his death.
late at night.
In the space, Wei Ci was wearing a simple, close-fitting silk nightgown, with a pale facial mask on her face, and she was leisurely rocking in a rocking chair, searching through her inventory.
Over the years, she has accumulated a lot of storage bags and storage bracelets of all sizes. She even threw some of the things into the space and forgot about them completely. Now that she is cleaning some of them out, she is really shocked. Is she so rich?
The most numerous items here were various jewelries, some bought for her by her mother, and some bought for her by her mother's mistresses out of love for her. In the end, it took four 100*100*100 space bags to sort out all the jewelries.
“Huh? What is this…?”
With a bang, an ordinary wooden box appeared in front of her, with several large golden words on it that were blinding.
【Points mission reward.】
After thinking about it, Wei Ci suddenly realized that this was the reward that the voice mentioned when she had physical contact with the man named Gu Zhan.
Without any preparation, Wei Ci opened the wooden box directly. The next second, a flash of white light penetrated her heart again, scaring her.
"What?"
