Going to the countryside in the Northeast, educated youths became popular in the village with embroi

Chapter 389 No Comparability

Yi Chichi recounted what had happened in a concise and concise manner. After listening to it, Liu Lan looked a little dazed.

She looked at Niu Niu who was practicing needlework seriously, and then at Yi Chi Chi, and still felt that the development of this matter was a bit strange.

"So, I really am going to have another little junior sister?"

"I haven't decided to accept a disciple yet."

Yi Chichi emphasized, and Niuniu said without even raising her head, "I'll practice first, and when I'm good at it, I'll let Aunt Chichi be my master."

Hearing her ambitious words, Liu Lan gave a dry laugh and encouraged her.

Then she whispered to Yi Chichi, "My husband wrote back and asked me to take the baby to see him in the spring."

Yi Chichi, "...bringing the kids to visit relatives in the spring?"

"Ah."

She couldn't believe it, "What's going on in your man's head?"

Is it so easy to go to the frontier?

Given today’s traffic conditions, it’s difficult for adults to make the trip, let alone bring along two children under one year old. No normal person would make such a request.

Isn't this obviously making things difficult for people?

Liu Lan didn't think so. She said calmly, "He misses me and the child, but he can't come back. Isn't this too much to ask?!"

"Were you tired when you went there to get it?"

"tired!"

Not to mention the long time it took to change trains, I also couldn't adapt to the climate.

"Then think about it again. Your two kids are still infants. They are not even one year old in the spring. You are taking them all the way to the border by yourself. It's hard to say whether you are tired or not. Let me ask you, what would you do if something unexpected happened?"

Pinching her arm, Yi Chichi looked disdainful and said, "To be honest, with your weak body, you would be in trouble even if you were a pickpocket, let alone a human trafficker."

Niu Niu rolled her eyes. Is the world outside so dangerous?

The teachers didn’t say anything.

The farthest place I have ever been is the commune, and the farthest place I have ever been to is Niuniu in the county. I am full of yearning for the outside world.

But Yi Chichi's words cast a faint psychological shadow on the little girl's young heart.

It turned out that the world outside was not as beautiful as she had imagined.

After sniffing, she buried her head in the cotton cloth again and poked it. She was still young and it would take several years before she could go out, so she was not in a hurry.

Let’s listen to what my aunts have to say first.

Then, Niuniu, with her ears perked up, heard Liu Lan say, "So I told you."

Yi Chichi didn't react to what she said at first, but when he finally reacted, he slapped her on the forehead.

"Don't even think about it!"

Niuniu was confused by these nonsensical words, but Liu Lan understood them immediately and came over to hug her arm and shake her, "Chichi, please help me. I can pay for your self-defense powder."

“This is not about money.”

Yi Chichi pulled her hand away and said helplessly, "First of all, you have no ability to protect yourself. Secondly, even if I give you the powder, you don't know how to use it. In the end, you might end up falling down first instead of the bad guy."

If this is true, then she has committed a great sin.

The responsibility was too great and she could not afford the safety of the mother and her two children.

Therefore, there was no way she would agree to this matter.

"Do they know that you are going to take your kids to the border in the spring?"

Liu Lan looked a little embarrassed, she looked at Niuniu, who was looking at her embroidery frame and Da Lao Hu, but not at her. "You didn't say that?" Yi Chi Chi was angry, as expected, people of the same family are alike, Liu Lan's man was stupid and brainless, and Liu Lan was not much better.

She was also convinced that he didn't tell his family about such an important matter but came to tell her instead.

"I haven't had time to say this yet."

She felt quite aggrieved, and Yi Chichi almost laughed at her. "Anyway, I can't help you with this matter. I also advise you to talk to the uncles first and listen to their opinions."

Liu Lan, "..."

Damn it, I can’t go to the border.

She felt hopeless, "I knew this would be the result. I was hoping you would speak up for me, but you disagreed."

Yi Chichi's response was to slap her.

"Get out of here now. You don't think of me when good things happen, but you always leave me behind when bad things happen."

The more he spoke, the angrier he became. He couldn't help but pinch her face and said angrily, "I'm telling you, Liu Lan, forget about going to the border. Either ask your man to come back to visit, or wait until the baby can walk and talk, and then have your eldest brother and second brother escort you and your mother over there."

Liu Lan, ... this is actually possible, but the expenses will be much higher this way.

Ignoring the hand pinching her face, she silently calculated in her mind, and then said with a bang, "Make money, make money. I want to make a lot of money to take my kids to visit relatives and take my brother and others to see the outside world."

Finally it makes sense.

This is what a clear-minded person does.

Yi Chichi let out a long sigh and was willing to take his hand back.

"Just think about it clearly."

"I know it very well."

While Liu Lan was setting up the embroidery frame, she took out the silk thread and hung it on the frame, sighing, "I just miss him too much. I am unwilling to give up and want to hear your opinion. After all, you have gone to visit your relatives alone several times."

"There's no comparison between the two of us. I don't have a baby. Besides, I'm just a half-baked hygienist and have some self-protection skills."

Yi Chichi finished threading the needle and started working, and she kept persuading him, "You should also write a letter or send a telegram to your man and tell him about your difficulties. I believe he will understand."

“I will definitely understand, but I will also be disappointed.”

This is really unavoidable and cannot be helped.

Reality is not a fairy tale. It is impossible for people to have everything they want in life. Instead, there are many areas where compromise is required.

"It's not your fault. The place he's at is too far away and the environment is too bad. A baby of this age is really not suitable for long-distance travel."

Liu Lan hummed and said with emotion, "I'd better wait until they are as old as Niu Niu before talking about taking them to visit relatives."

Niuniu, who didn't expect that she still had things to do, looked up and said, "Why do you have to wait until I'm this old? Didn't Aunt Chichi say that it would be enough if I could walk and talk?"

"When you're older you can take care of yourself."

Liu Lan's answer was very serious. Niuniu thought about it and felt that it made sense, so she said "oh" and handed the cotton cloth to Yi Chichi, "Auntie, take a look."

Yi Chichi glanced at her and pointed out her problem clearly, "Pay attention to the tightness when pulling the thread. It's best to keep it consistent, otherwise the thread will be uneven and there will be raised and loose stitches."

The embroidery work will be ugly.

You should know that Suzhou embroidery is characterized by "flatness, neatness, fineness, density, harmony, brightness, smoothness and uniformity".

The "flat" here refers to the flatness of the embroidery surface.

If Niu Niu doesn't correct this shortcoming, she will be stuck with just the flatness, and she won't be able to achieve the following characteristics such as neatness and thinness.

After looking at his own embroidery, and then at Yi Chichi's embroidery, the little person sighed and said, "I will try my best."

"Don't be in a hurry. You've just started. You can take your time. Nothing in this world can be achieved overnight. It all depends on hard work."
