Chapter 115 Cardboard and Kraft Paper
Juanjuan touched the soft fur and said, "You can see Sister Qiaoqiao often from now on!"
Ruanruan rubbed it with her head and was in a very happy mood.
"Didn't you buy gifts for everyone?" Mrs. Si reminded the three children with a smile.
"That's right! We are going to give gifts to the housekeeper and others." Juanjuan pulled Si Jinchen and Ma Yang and ran away.
The housekeeper looked at the cigarette box in his hand with a little surprise. He had never smoked in front of the three children before. "Why are you giving me this?"
"There's a faint smell of tobacco on the butler!" Juanjuan blinked her big eyes mischievously.
The housekeeper shook his head and laughed: "Miss, you have a really good nose."
"Songsong said that." Juanjuan stretched out her little finger and pointed at Songsong beside her.
"Woof woof woof. It was clearly you who smelled it, and now you blame it on me." Songsong rolled his eyes at her.
The drivers eat peanuts and melon seeds. They like to eat melon seeds and chat when they have nothing to do.
Wu Ma’s is a safety lock, Sister Bailing’s is a hair flower, and Brother Jiang Ze’s is a pen.
The three children also bought gifts for Si Tian and Siming. They were just small, inexpensive gifts, but it showed how much the three children valued their family.
Bai Qiao changed her clothes and went out to work. She was a hardworking person with a keen eye for work.
Wu Ma looked at the child with a smile on her face. She didn't even need to say anything because the child had already done a great job.
Old Madam Si was also observing her every move. Sometimes it wasn't that she was cautious, but she was afraid that people might be skeptical.
Juanjuan followed Baiqiao like a little tail, and sometimes asked questions out of curiosity.
Bai Qiao would answer seriously when she knew something, and if she didn't know something, she would just shake her head and say she didn't know.
When Si Tian and Siming came back and saw a little girl in her teens in the house, they didn't say much.
Bai Qiao still felt nervous when she saw the two of them, and her speech was a little halting.
"We don't eat people, so there's no need to be so nervous. Just do your job well and take good care of Juanjuan." Si Ming was afraid that she would be scared to death, so he let her go after he said that.
"Is this the girl who was selling herself last time?" Si Tian asked as he watched her leave.
"Well, it's fate. Our family just happened to be short of someone to take care of Juanjuan, and I asked her to come because she was of the right age." Old Madam Si looked at the person who left.
"Let's observe first." Si Ming only said this and went to accompany the two children.
"Mom, if I leave Mayang at home to take care of Achen, he's still a very steady child. If the store needs him, I can send him over. He won't need to run around every day."
Si Tian also thought that it would not be appropriate for the two children to be alone.
"That's fine. Although Mayang is younger, he seems to be a steady person." Old Madam Si did not object.
Bailing knew that Baiqiao was there to take care of Juanjuan, so she carefully told her, "The only food that Miss doesn't like is onions, and the thing she hates most is medicine."
"She's easy to get along with, and she's not arrogant. You'll understand her after spending some time with her. But I have to warn you, don't think she's easy to bully just because she's young."
"She's not stupid. The entire Governor's Office is protecting her. Don't treat her like she was bought. You'll only end up dead if you do that."
Bai Qiao listened carefully: "Sister Bailing, I won't."
"There's not much to do on weekdays. You have to clean the house. The young lady is sleeping with the old lady now, so you have to clean her room regularly."
"Also, don't worry about what the young lady wants to do. As long as her life is not in danger, just let her go."
Bailing thought about it and made sure nothing was left out, so she let her go to bed early.
"Thank you, Sister Bailing." Bai Qiao tossed and turned in bed for a long time and couldn't fall asleep. Everything that happened today seemed like a dream.
She got rid of her stepfather, saw her dog, and had a place where she could sleep safely without having to worry about him suddenly bursting into the room.
Bailing watched her tossing and turning in sleep without saying anything. She had asked the housekeeper about her situation and found that she was a pitiful person.
I just hope she can cherish this hard-earned happiness. Not everyone can enter the Governor's Mansion.
The next day, Mrs. Si started making tiger-head hats for the chickens at home.
When Juanjuan saw it, she came to help. She was good at handing over small things, but she was not good at threading the needle.
Old Madam Si looked at the needle for a long time, but couldn't get it through.
"Madam, let me do it!" Bai Qiao reached out and took the needle and thread from her hand, and threaded the needle in the blink of an eye.
"Do you often do needlework at home?" Old Madam Si took the needle and thread.
Bai Qiao nodded and said, "My mother and I learned this and made some to help support our family."
"If you know how to make a tiger-head hat, please help me." Old Madam Si looked at her with a smile.
"Okay." Bai Qiao sat cross-legged next to the coffee table and began to make the tiger-head hat seriously.
Juanjuan handed one person a piece of cloth and then handed another person a pair of scissors. It wasn't boring at all.
Si Jinchen and Ma Yang were studying guns in another room. The two-layer shotgun they had talked about before had already taken shape.
It would be nice if I could try it out.
The two children stared at the drawings in a daze, not knowing how to make these things.
"Brother, we can make it with kraft paper and cardboard!" Juanjuan ran in at some point and stood behind them.
"How to make kraft paper and cardboard?" Ma Yang was full of questions.
"How do you know it won't work if you don't try?" Si Jinchen said as he pulled Ma Yang up and went to bring back a pile of kraft paper and cardboard.
He had already drawn a disassembly diagram of the shotgun. Now all he had to do was make it using kraft paper and cardboard according to the drawing.
If one piece isn't enough, try two, and if two pieces aren't enough, try three. The thickness of the pieces folded together should be enough.
The children did what they said. Si Jinchen was responsible for drawing the base map, and Ma Yang was responsible for cutting it out.
Juanjuan helps apply layers of glue on it, so that the cardboards stick together layer by layer to achieve the required thickness.
After finishing her own work, Wu Ma came over to help sew the little tiger-head hat: "Whose family raises chickens for the New Year and wears tiger-head hats?"
"Our family!" Mrs. Si said with a smile.
"It's only our family that does this, and they're all custom-made." Aunt Wu smiled and shook her head.
It was almost time for dinner and the children were still nowhere to be seen. Mrs. Si got up to look for them and saw three children sitting among a pile of cardboard and brown paper, fiddling with something.
"What are you doing?"
"Grandma, we are making guns!" Juanjuan held up a small round cylinder of kraft paper in his hand.
Madam Si walked over curiously and squatted on the ground to take a look: "Using cardboard and kraft paper?"
"Yeah, yeah, brother is so smart!" Juanjuan smiled and nodded.
Mrs. Si looked at the cardboard parts on the ground and was so surprised that she was speechless.
