He Xianqiu didn't have classes today, so the others went to work and she was still sleeping in bed.
But maybe because she could sleep in while others had to do farm work, Zhao Yaling and Yang Shuhua were particularly angry and jealous when they saw her still lying in bed. They wondered why He Xianqiu could be so comfortable, so they cleaned up very loudly, with the sound of banging on the floor, and He Xianqiu was woken up.
He Xianqiu opened her eyes and looked at the people walking in the dormitory. She took a quick look and then lay back down to continue sleeping.
Let them quarrel, the dormitory will be quiet after they go out.
Zhao Yaling looked at He Xianqiu lying down to sleep again, her face darkened, she glared at him fiercely, and walked out angrily.
Yang Shuhua has always had a bad temper. When she saw He Xianqiu lying back down, her face twisted. She slammed the door shut when she went out, making a loud bang that even shook the wall.
When He Xianqiu heard the sound, he just frowned, then turned over and went back to sleep.
After He Xianqiu fell asleep, she dreamed that she returned to her world, and she was extremely happy.
But when she thought of Ji Chenzhou, her happiness faded a little. She would never see Ji Chenzhou again. Thinking of this, He Xianqiu sighed.
Then the dream changed to another scene. After coming back, she thought of the delicious food she hadn't eaten for a long time, so she quickly ordered a lot of takeout, trying to make up for all the food she hadn't eaten in these days.
He Xianqiu ate a piece of the cake. The cake was sweet and delicious. She squinted her eyes happily.
Suddenly, she heard a shout outside the door and woke up from her dream. She opened her eyes and propped herself up.
Lin Jianshe was still calling her from outside the door, his voice loud and full of joy: "He Zhiqing, He Zhiqing, are you there? The soap is ready and has solidified."
He Xianqiu recognized that it was the captain Lin Jianshe who called her, and she responded: "Captain, I'm here, but I haven't washed up yet. I'll go over after I'm done, so you go over first."
Lin Jianshe nodded: "Okay, I'll go first then."
After saying this, the team leader Lin Jianshe left the educated youth site. When he left, his whole face was filled with a smile that could not be concealed no matter how hard he tried.
This time they can finally breathe a sigh of relief and stand up straight. The Baisha Brigade has been living better than their Qinggang Brigade in recent years, so they look down on their Qinggang Brigade and say that their brigade is extremely poor.
Especially since there is a primary school in Baisha Brigade, but there is no primary school in Qinggang Brigade, and the children still have to go to Baisha Brigade for classes. When Lin Jianshe thought of the complacent face of Baisha Brigade, he felt itchy with anger.
Now that their Qinggang Brigade has run a primary school and has the technology to make soap, they can finally hold their heads up high.
Thinking that the soap technology was taught by He Zhiqing, Lin Jianshe thought that studying was indeed useful. He even knew how to make soap, so he didn't know what else He Zhiqing could do.
It seems that we must treat He Zhiqing well and never let her be bullied in the team.
But now Lin Jianshe has something more important to do, which is to report this matter and get approval to open the factory.
So he had to go back and pack his things now, and then go to town immediately.
After He Xianqiu washed up, she hurried towards the captain's house.
She walked quickly and soon arrived at the captain's house. She stood at the door and knocked.
Soon someone opened the door for her. It was the captain's wife. When she saw that it was her, she warmly welcomed her in.
"He Zhiqing is here, come quickly, the soap is ready."
He Xianqiu smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have kept Aunt and Uncle Jianshe waiting for so long."
Hearing He Xianqiu say this, and calling him so affectionately, the captain's wife was even more satisfied. She smiled and replied, "No, no, your uncle Jianshe and I are both free."
He Xianqiu followed the captain's wife inside. When the captain saw her coming, he immediately said, "He Zhiqing, the soap has solidified. Go and see if it's done."
He Xianqiu nodded: "Okay, Uncle Jianshe."
The three of them went to see the solidified soap together. The soap looked very smooth and white.
He Xianqiu touched it and found that the soap had completely solidified. Now it was time to remove the mold and take a look.
When making the mold for soap, He Xianqiu also asked the team leader to make a mold for cutting soap.
He Xianqiu put the solidified soap into the soap cutting mold.
The captain and his wife were watching her movements from the side.
I stared at it intently without blinking, for fear of missing anything.
He Xianqiu cut the soap into pieces, each about three centimeters thick.
Ten pieces of soap were cut out, all of them were very white and smooth to the touch.
After He Xianqiu finished cutting, she looked up and said, "It's done. Now I need to get some water and see how the soap works."
The captain's wife nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go get a basin of water now."
As she said that, she turned and ran into the kitchen to boil the water, and quickly brought over a basin of water.
He Xianqiu took the soap and put it into the water. The team leader and his wife looked at her nervously, staring at the soap in her hand.
This soap is made with a lot of lard. If it is not made well, all the money will be wasted. This is oil, it is precious.
After the soap was soaked with water, He Xianqiu took it out and rubbed it on his hands.
Soon, a lot of foam appeared on the fair hands, making them slippery.
The captain and his wife looked at the foam and both smiled.
This soap produces a lot of foam. The team leader's wife thinks it is better than the soap she bought from the supply and marketing cooperative. Moreover, the soap looks very smooth and white, and is even more beautiful than the grayish-white soap bought from the supply and marketing cooperative.
The captain's wife was all smiles. She said, "He Zhiqing, the soap was made successfully. It looks better than the one I bought at the supply and marketing cooperative. I don't have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy soap anymore. I can use it at home, which will save me a lot of money."
The team leader nodded and said, "Indeed, it is better than the one in the supply and marketing cooperative, and there are more bubbles. I will report it to the town right away. Thank you for your hard work, He Zhiqing."
As he said this, the captain hurried into the house, and after a while came out with a plan and a piece of cut soap wrapped in paper.
Then he said to He Xianqiu: "He Zhiqing, I'm going to the town first. Let your aunt entertain you."
He Xianqiu smiled and nodded: "Okay, then Captain, you go and get busy first."
The captain nodded: "Okay, I'll go to town first. I'll let you know if there's anything."
With that, the captain left at a fast pace.
Seeing that the team leader was going to town and there was nothing left for her to do, He Xianqiu planned to go back to the educated youth site to rest.
So she said to the captain's wife, "Aunt, there's nothing else to do now, I'll go back to the educated youth camp first."
The captain's wife nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, He Zhiqing. You can take a piece of soap back home to use. After all, you made this."
As she spoke, the captain's wife handed a piece of soap to He Xianqiu.
He Xianqiu looked at the soap in her hand, and put it back into the hand of the captain's wife. Then she waved her hand and looked at the captain's wife with a smile.
"Thank you, Auntie. I didn't do much, so you don't need me. If you have nothing else, I'll leave first."
The captain's wife looked at the soap in her hand and originally wanted to hand it to He Xianqiu.
But when he thought about what He Xianqiu was wearing, the clothes were all made of very good fabrics and looked very nice. It was obvious that they were not something that could be bought in their commune. He didn't know how much each piece would cost.
It wasn't a big deal to have a piece of soap. In fact, their family needed it more, so I didn't refuse.
The team leader's wife was overjoyed to think that she now had ten bars of soap at home, which did not require any tickets and were many times better than those from the supply and marketing cooperative.
I just wanted to wait for her son and daughter-in-law to come back and tell them about this. This could save me a lot of money and tickets.
Thinking that He Xianqiu had saved their family a lot of money and tickets, the captain's wife sent He Xianqiu out with a smile on her face.
"Come on, He Zhiqing, let me take you out."
He Xianqiu nodded: "Okay, thank you, auntie."
He Xianqiu and the captain's wife came to the door, and then He Xianqiu said to the captain's wife: "Auntie, I'm leaving now. I'll come back if there's anything else."
The captain smiled and nodded: "Okay, then I'll go to work first. The people who work at home will come back and eat later."
Afterwards, He Xianqiu left the captain's house. When she was walking on the road, she met some aunts. Seeing the direction she came from, the aunts asked, "He Zhiqing, why have you been coming to the captain's house recently? Is there something wrong?"
He Xianqiu looked at the aunt and said, "Nothing, I just asked the captain about some small matters."
"Is that so?" said the aunt.
"Then I have nothing else to do. I will go back to the Youth League Center first."
After saying that, He Xianqiu left. Before she had gone far, she heard the voices of the aunts talking.
An aunt speculated: "Yingnan wouldn't want He Zhiqing to be her daughter-in-law, after all, her youngest son is a soldier, and her family is not bad."
An aunt with a shrill and piercing voice said, "This He Zhiqing goes to the team leader so frequently. Could it be that she has no hope of returning to the city and wants to marry into the best family in the village? It seems that this He Zhiqing is a seductress."
"That won't do. I still want to see the captain's family for my little Yun. I have to go and test Yingnan's opinion."
He Xianqiu listened to what the aunts were talking about, and the corners of her mouth twitched.
He Xianqiu was speechless. She didn't know how these aunts could think of such outrageous things. No matter how hard she tried, she still couldn't figure out how these aunts could have such wild imaginations.
Still with no hope of returning to the city, she wanted to marry into the captain’s most prestigious family.
He Xianqiu just wanted to say: If you didn’t tell me, I wouldn’t have known that the captain’s son was a soldier.
But she had already walked some distance away, and she was too lazy to go back and refute. After a while, she would know why she went to the captain's house so frequently.
He Xianqiu has great respect for soldiers. It is these soldiers, the people's soldiers, who have been protecting the common people and rushing to the front lines so that they can live a peaceful life.
Thinking of those on the front line, He Xianqiu thought of a sentence: There is no such thing as a peaceful life in this world, it's just that someone is carrying the burden for you. ①
He Xianqiu also agreed with this statement, because the reason they could live so well was because there were people guarding the front line.
