Why are you looking at me like that?
"Are you going to hit me again?"
"I'm telling you, I'm telling you, if you dare to hit me again without reason, I'll fight you to the death!"
When Chen Haiying saw Su Qingci staring at her fiercely, she was so frightened that she quickly stood up and took a few steps back towards the door.
With one foot inside the room and the other outside, he leaned against the doorframe, staring intently at Su Qingci, ready to run if anything went wrong.
"You two, quickly tell her that I didn't touch her, and that she came back crying from outside."
Chen Xiuxiang and Zhou Huijuan, who were called out by Chen Haiying, quickly explained.
"Yes, yes, Qing porcelain, truly excellent Haiying."
"I heard about it on my way home from work. It's said that Li Li was bitten by a goose and cried."
Su Qingci glared at Chen Haiying, "It better not be you, or I'll beat the crap out of you."
"Li Li, stop crying, where did you get bitten?"
"Does it hurt a lot?"
Su Qingci's question only made Li Li howl even louder.
After much effort, he managed to coax Li Li into coming to his bed, where he pulled the curtains closed to examine her wound.
Looking at the calves and buttocks that had been twisted into a dark purple color and were oozing blood, even Su Qingci gasped.
That's too cruel! If it were me, I would have cried even louder.
"Bear with it, I happen to have some medicine in my box. Don't move, I'll go get some clean water for you to wash up."
Su Qingci pulled the blanket over her and got out of bed to fetch water.
As soon as I stepped outside, I saw Feng Jianjun, who looked like a mud-covered figure.
Feng Jianjun glared at Su Qingci with resentment, but when she looked at him, his vicious expression vanished, replaced by a warm smile.
"Qing porcelain~"
Su Qingci was so angry she wanted to beat him to death; he was disgusting!
I washed Li Li's wound with water and applied medicine. "Why don't you take the morning off?"
Li Li shook her head, "It doesn't hurt as much now, it's much better."
"Besides, how am I supposed to ask for leave? Say I was bitten by a goose and can't go to work?"
"I'd be laughed at to death, I don't want to."
"What's there to be afraid of? It's just a few work points."
Five work points are only worth two cents.
"I'm six centimeters tall now!"
"It went up?"
"Yes, I've been doing it for a while now and I'm familiar with it."
"Sigh, labor in the countryside is so cheap."
"Qingci, I want to go back to the city, sob, I miss my mom."
Because Li Li was injured, Su Qingci cooked the meal.
She scooped out half a bowl of flour, cracked two eggs, and simply made a few egg pancakes.
Luo Song and Lu Linping were overjoyed, and even Li Li was in much better spirits.
"Qingci, when did you find someone to exchange the eggs? We'll put together the money for you later."
"Yes, I can't just eat your eggs for free."
"Mmm, smells delicious~"
At this time of year, eggs were a real delicacy. You had to get a coupon to buy them from the supply and marketing cooperative, and a pound of eggs cost four mao (0.4 yuan).
In the village, you could exchange eggs with others for 5 cents each, and 2 eggs would cost 10 cents.
Considering that Su Qingci only earns a little over ten cents a day in work points, it would really feel wrong to eat her eggs for free.
Su Qingci did not refuse. She didn't care if others didn't mention it, but if others offered it to her, she would definitely accept it.
After finishing my meal, I carried out the package I had brought back from town yesterday from under the bed.
Yesterday was quite a commotion, and it was already dark when I got back from the secretary's office. I went to herd cattle early this morning, so I haven't had a chance to check on them yet.
Open the package and take out the items one by one.
From winter coats and trousers to socks, gloves, and scarves, as well as the original owner's favorite foods like sausages and candied winter melon, summer sandals, insect bite medicine, sewing kits, and foldable oiled leather fans...
The large bag of items contained the family's love for the original owner.
Unfortunately, Su Qingci searched high and low but couldn't find the letter.
She was feeling very down, and after thinking it over, she decided to find another opportunity to go to town to make a phone call.
Su Qingci opened the sewing kit and took out a needle.
Pressing against the wall with force, a small, curved fishhook was formed in no time.
They hadn't had time to plant their own plots yet; the old educated youth's vegetable gardens didn't include them.
For a long time afterward, they had to find their own food, either by exchanging vegetables with other villagers or by eating wild vegetables.
Thinking that Song Jingzhou always carried a fishing rod while herding cattle, he must have some success.
Su Qingci decided to learn from him. If she could make the model, even if she couldn't catch it, she could get it from the farm.
If we can't finish them, we can dry some in the sun; at least then we'll have a place to put them.
In the afternoon, when it was time to let the cattle graze, Su Qingci led them directly to the riverbank.
Sure enough, we could see the yellow ox with its calf grazing by the river from afar.
"Be good, don't run around, and don't bully the ox, do you hear me?"
"If you don't listen, I'll call the Philippines out and they'll sit on you until you're dead."
After giving the water buffalo a few gentle threats, Su Qingci brazenly went to Song Jingzhou.
There's nothing we can do; the only suitable fishing spot around here is that one dawn redwood tree that provides shade.
I searched the farm with my mind but couldn't find any bait.
"Hey~ Song Jingzhou, give me some bait."
Song Jingzhou raised his eyebrows and lazily kicked a small jar at his feet outwards.
Seeing the fish bait in the jar, Su Qingci was so frightened that she threw the jar away.
"Oh my god, an earthworm, an earthworm, it's still alive!"
The small jar was half full of earthworms, which were still crawling around inside.
It triggered her trypophobia; her heart raced and she got goosebumps.
