Chapter 102 The embroidery is missing

She returned the shoes, but Liu Lan didn't accept it and plausibly said she had to keep the shoes.

Because it came in her size, no one would wear it if she didn't want to take it back.

Yi Chichi,...you have to accept it even if you don't want it.

She hesitated for two seconds, "How about I pay..."

"Stop it!"

Liu Lan, who knew what she was going to say when she heard the word "Fu", quickly interrupted her and said, "If you really feel sorry for yourself, please give me some more tricks."

I'm tired of embroidering the pattern before.

Furthermore, staring at one pattern embroidery is not helpful in cultivating color sensitivity.

"Row."

Exchanging a trick for a pair of shoes is not free, and Yi's guilty conscience of not being rewarded for his work was instantly gone.

"It's the same old rule, don't show it."

"will not!"

Liulan and the others knew this well. They learned embroidery from their elders and always embroidered insoles. They never had flowers or anything on their clothes, they only had patches.

So Yi Chichi drew three patterns for her.

After she finished painting, Liulan and the others began to evaluate.

"It looks harder than before."

"Learn slowly."

Yi Chichi was very calm, "Anyway, you won't be able to leave for a while. Besides, many hand-made embroidery factories have merged with machine embroidery factories, so there is no need to worry."

Once you learn it well, you won’t be afraid of not making money.

"Makes sense."

Then a group of people sat together chatting and doing needlework.

While chatting, Aunt Ma told a piece of gossip.

"Educated youth are coming again this year."

"???"

"This time it seems to be three educated youths."

Liu Xiaocao blurted out, "I hope there will be some people who can work this time."

Yi Chichi lowered her head with a guilty conscience, always feeling that Xiaocao was hinting at her.

Because apart from breaking corn cobs, she is really not good at harvesting other crops.

"I haven't told you anything yet, don't take it to heart."

Yi Chichi was embarrassed. It was better not to say this, but once she said it, she felt even more disgusted.

But he still had to smile and hummed, then started to change the topic.

"Auntie, do you know when the educated youth will arrive?"

The arrival of a new educated youth was not good news for Yi Chichi. She was not worried about anything else but that the new educated youth would be a problem.

Thinking about that scene gives me a headache.

"Looks like mid to late April!"

Yi Chichi calculated the time and found that there was still more than a month left.

You can survive for a while.

How can people wait until they come to know? There is no need to worry too much now.

But this time is chosen well, it is the time for spring planting.

Thinking of spring planting, “What should I plant when spring begins?”

"Wheat and corn, and later rice and stuff like that."

She said oh, which means that the spring planting will be busy until May or June.

Fortunately, she doesn't have to go to the fields this year and only needs to follow Uncle Yaozi to grow medicinal materials.

Yi Chichi thought this life was easy.

Uncle Yaozi, who didn't want to leave the village, called her one day in late March as she was about to return to the Educated Youth Home after get off work, "Girl Yi, come with me to the mountains tomorrow to dig for medicinal materials."

"What's the matter?"

She looked confused, "Uncle, do you want me to go into the mountains with you to dig for medicinal materials?"

"Yes, we are going to dig up medicinal materials and plant them."

Yi has not wanted to go for a long time. As the saying goes, it is easier to go up the mountain than to go down.

The Northeast is rich in forest resources, and the mountains are mostly virgin forests. Let alone going down the mountain, going up the mountain would make her tired.

She is not the chosen one and has ideas about ginseng and other precious medicinal materials.

There is no such thing as life.

Compared with the sweet dream of going into the mountains to pick up ginseng, she was more worried about encountering blind bears or wolves when she went into the mountains.

"Uncle, can I not go?"

"can."

"Really?" "You go farm."

Very good. If you don’t want to grow medicinal materials, you have to farm the land. Everyone knows how to choose between the two.

Although it is difficult to go up the mountain and you may encounter dangers, the time is short.

If you plant in spring...

She shuddered at the thought of nearly two months of spring planting.

"I'll go up the mountain with you to dig for medicinal materials."

Uncle Yaozi nodded with satisfaction, "Go back and get ready. We will go into the mountains tomorrow."

The corner of Yi Chichi's mouth twitched, the speed was too fast.

There really was no preparation time at all.

"Uncle, are we going into the mountains like this?"

"Then how are you going to go into the mountains and beat gongs and drums to see you off?"

Uncle Yaozi squinted his eyes at her, and Yi Chichi waved his hands quickly, "That's not what I meant. I meant that everything is recovering in this season, and the beasts that have been dormant all winter are coming out."

The implication is: It’s time to prepare something to defend yourself.

"No need, we're not going to the mountains, we're just wandering around the edges."

The medicinal materials grown in the team doctor's office are all common medicinal materials.

Without him, if his temper is wild enough, he will be brilliant if he is given some sunshine, and he will thrive if he has soil and water.

Precious medicinal materials...

Hehe, let’s not talk about whether we can meet him or not. Even if we meet him, he won’t be able to survive.

"Many medicinal materials depend on the environment and soil. It does not mean that we can dig them up and plant them alive. I only dig out medicines that are simple and practical to plant alive."

Yi Chichi suddenly realized that there was no problem in walking her around the edge.

"Is growing medicinal materials in compliance with the policy?"

"Nonsense, it doesn't comply with the policy. Where can we get the medicine? It's useless to point to the small amount of Western medicine that the county commune approves every time."

Yi Chichi felt relieved.

"Okay, then I'll go back and get ready. What time will I go up the mountain tomorrow?!"

"No need to be too early, just come over at half past nine."

"it is good."

Yi Chi returned to the Educated Youth Home and found Bai Chen and the others squatting in the yard washing clothes. The clothes they were wearing were different from what she saw when she went out in the morning.

My hair is also semi-dry.

"Why do you do laundry together?"

"Don't mention it. I was asked by the captain to pick up a dunghill today. I smell bad."

No wonder.

"Why are you being called?"

Lifting a dung pile requires strength, and several jobs in the Educated Youth Yard are not very good.

Even for the strongest Bai Chen, the highest record is only eight centimeters, and he has never achieved the full centimeter.

"We are free."

They couldn't do the job of drying seeds and selecting seeds. In the first year, the captain thought they couldn't do the job well, so he arranged a relatively easy job for them to select seeds with the mothers-in-law in the team.

It’s okay not to mention the results.

Anyway, they have no chance of picking seeds from now on.

They can't grind farm tools either.

After grinding for a long time, I only polished my face, and then two sickles or two hoes were blunted.

Needs to be re-sharpened.

"I just hate that we are so useless. There are so many jobs and only a dung heap is suitable for us."

Wu Yongfei looked sad and angry, and Yi Chichi felt the same.

"I'm not any better than you. Tomorrow I will follow Uncle Yao Zi into the mountains to dig for medicinal materials."

The group of people looked at each other for a long time, and then sighed together.

What a hard life, why do people have to work?

Don't want to work.

In the evening, Wang Nan came to her house again to pay back the money, this time she paid two yuan.

Yi Chichi accepted it decisively, and was about to ask her sister if she was discharged from the hospital, but Wang Nan's eyes were attracted by the similar embroidered clothes she placed on the kang.

"Have you finished embroidering?"

She looked at the dark pattern on her clothes with a look of amazement. She wanted to reach out and touch it, but she was afraid that the calluses on her hands would bring out the threads.

"Not even close."

Yi Chi Chi picked up the clothes, and Wang Nan exclaimed, "Why can't I see the embroidered pattern?"
