Chapter 90: Report good news but not bad news

They were not favored at home and their relationship was not very good.

Yi Chichi is different.

Just look at the things she has learned. It is impossible for a girl who does not come from a favored family to learn these things.

Instead, he is surrounded by heavy housework and farm work all day long.

What's more, she was still a sick person before, so it's not an exaggeration to say that the medicine never leaves her mouth.

That's all, he wasn't thrown away, and he was raised well. It's impossible to say he's not favored.

Yi Chichi didn't know their brains. After entering the room, she put a military coat on her body and started stuffing things inside.

The original owner was not short. He used to be severely malnourished and was so skinny that he was 165cm tall. After Yi Chichi went to the countryside, he never treated himself harshly and not only made himself fatter.

They also moved up a bit.

But Yi Yong's military coat was still a lot too big for her, so even if there were a lot of things stuffed inside, it wasn't very noticeable.

Then, she lowered her head and went out looking sad and lost.

New Year's Eve is coming in a few days. Except for Niu Niu and other children of her age, there is nothing to do in the team to wander around. The half-year-old children and adults are busy preparing New Year's food, cleaning and so on.

Therefore, she reached the cowshed smoothly while avoiding people along the way.

Then, she saw Qin Jiu, whose face and hands were red from the cold, and Mrs. Song squatting together to wash sweet potatoes.

She called out to Xiaojiu softly.

Qin Jiu raised his head when he heard the shouting and looked over. When he saw Yi Chi opening his mouth, he wanted to call her aunt. He quickly reached out and covered his mouth with his hands, his eyes curved into crescent moons.

Yi Chichi smiled, this kid is smart.

She pointed to the door, signaling with her eyes that she wanted to come in.

Qin Jiu nodded his head, turned around and whispered a few words to Mrs. Song. The old lady touched his head and smiled at Yi Chichi before continuing to lower his head and do his own thing.

Then, Yi Chichi saw Qin Jiu moving towards her like a thief with his small body.

"Gu!"

His deliberately lowered voice could not hide his excitement, and his eyes were sparkling.

"Auntie is here."

Yi Chichi picked him up and touched his little hands and face, which were cold.

"Are you cold?"

"It's not cold. I'm wearing the autumn clothes and trousers that my aunt made for me."

Children report good news but not bad news, and sensible people are easily distressed.

"Where do we get in?"

"I'll show you the way."

This kid is already familiar with the situation in the bullpen. He knows where to go to avoid people without being discovered.

Yi Chichi entered the house through the side door under his guidance.

The old man and the others are not here, but a lot of things have been added to the house.

Seeing those things, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Is someone bringing you something?"

"The captain's grandpa and the party secretary's grandpa came to deliver it in the evening."

As soon as these words came out, Yi Chichi knew what was going on. It was the man from the commune who was sending supplies to the old man and the others.

Good.

"Where are the master and the others?"

"Going to unpack and collect firewood."

Yi Chichi,...the cover is still acceptable in this weather. It is useless to pick up the firewood. It is all wet and cannot be burned.

"No firewood?"

"Yes, not much."

Qin Jiu poured water for her like an adult and explained, "My grandpa said that we, old and young, need to take advantage of the winter to collect more firewood, otherwise we won't have time to collect firewood when we start working in the spring."

This makes sense.

"How long have you been there?"

"In a while."

He didn't know exactly how long.

Yi Chichi said, "Which room do you and the master sleep in?"

"Mr. Song and Mrs. Song share a room, and we share a room."

Pointing to the kang against the wall, he said, "This is our house." It just needs to be Qin Jiu's house.

"Can you hide things?"

Qin Jiu understood instantly that his aunt was sending something again.

The child did not feel happy, but worriedly shook her hand and said like a young adult, "Auntie, can you support yourself?"

"I can."

Yi Chichi pinched his little cheek and said, "Don't worry, my aunt will only help you and your grandfather if she can support herself. Do you understand?"

"I understand, my aunt is great!"

The child gave her a thumbs up, and Yi Chichi couldn't help laughing.

"Auntie can't stay here long. You hide your things and wait for the master to come back and tell him."

Before she finished speaking, she started to take something out of her clothes.

The first thing she took out was a cake that was almost soaked in oil. She bought a catty in total. She ate two of them herself and brought the rest over.

The cakes of this era are quite delicious. They are made from real materials and do not involve any technological manipulation.

But it didn't quite suit Yi Chichi's appetite.

He took one open and stuffed it into Qin Jiu's mouth, "Eat quickly."

Qin Jiu, who was caught off guard by a cake, subconsciously took a bite. Yi Chichi saw surprise in his eyes, but the child's next behavior made her sad.

After he swallowed the cake, he held the small cake in his small hands and brought it to her mouth, "Auntie, you can eat it and I can taste it. This is delicious."

"Auntie has eaten it, Xiaojiu can eat it by himself."

Pointing to the rest, she said, "Look, my aunt bought a lot, and there are also some in the Educated Youth Institute. These are all for you and my grandfather."

"really have?"

"Really!"

The child then started to eat with confidence.

When he saw the malted milk essence, he refused to give it up and asked Yi Chichi to take it away.

Since Yi Chichi brought it, it was naturally impossible to take it back.

"This is to replenish the health of you and my grandfather. You can't get sick. My aunt's only two relatives are you and your grandfather. You have to be good, otherwise my aunt will be bullied to death."

"……it is good."

He must grow up quickly to protect his grandfather and aunt and not let them be bullied.

When he saw Depot No. 51, his eyes lit up.

"Little book!"

"Yes, my aunt bought it for you. After reading it, my aunt will give you another set."

The children couldn't wait to read it.

Nowadays, the little people’s books are really beautiful, and the drawings are also beautiful.

She looked through it out of curiosity last night, and it turned out that it wasn't because she had strong self-control and was still thinking about embroidery, that she had to spend all her time in the evening reading the little book.

Soon after he finished taking out the things, Qin Jiu saw that he stopped taking out the things and knew that it was his turn to do his best.

Then, Yi Chichi saw him start hiding things like a hamster.

Kang holes, walls, beams, etc. are all good places to hide things.

Especially on the spot where things are hidden on the beam, the old man and the others actually set up a mechanism. The rope to put the basket is outside the window. It is so tattered that it is not eye-catching at all.

If Qin Jiu had not opened the window to pull the rotten hemp rope, she would not have noticed the basket on the beam.

After everything was hidden and Yi Chichi was about to say goodbye and leave, he found a piece of clothing with several holes on the kang.

She picked it up and looked at it and found that it was a child's clothes.

I haven't seen it before, so it should be the captain and others who sent it.

"yours?"

"Ah."

The child nodded, "Mrs. Song said you can patch it up for me when it's empty and you can keep wearing it."

Yi Chichi was silent for two seconds, "Do you have any needle and thread?"

"Have."

"Go get it and Auntie will make it up for you."

The child turned and ran away, and soon came back with needle, thread and rags.
