Chapter 163 Villagers of Siliu Village ([-])

After choosing a room, Qi Ke set up a pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, and wrote down the stories she heard this morning with a calligraphy brush that was only at the level of block letters. Let's save some trouble, so that we don't have to go through the old files of the county government to confirm the boundaries of each village.

Of course, these are just drafts, and they will be revised and polished slowly after collecting more content.

After finishing the draft, Qi Ke packed up his pen and ink, left these things in the house, and only took the draft back to the spiritual realm to rest. The wolves were still on the mountain and none of them came back. Qi Ke didn't call them, and let them play outside.

After having lunch and taking a nap, Qi Ke rummaged through the cloth heads she brought from the capital, found a few rolled up and tied them with rope, and carried a sewing basket with complete tools in her arms. Go to Yuan Ting's house, the appointed time in the afternoon is coming soon.

At Yuan Ting's house, everyone was waiting for her, and the appointment was because they were going to find something to eat on the tidal flat in the afternoon.

Qi Ke held her cloth head and asked who could make shoes. She walked all the way from the capital, and the soles of her shoes were almost worn out. She was paid for making shoes, and she could ask for flour or needles and thread.

All the women raised their hands and said they could do it, not only the two pregnant women and young mothers with infants, but even the elderly woman did not want to miss this opportunity to earn money.

But in the end, the good job of making shoes still fell on the two young mothers who raised their children. They directly carried their children to Qi Ke, and let her see the stitches on the clothes on the children. It was made from an adult's clothes. The stitches are not dense but very smooth. From Qi Ke's point of view, it can be above the passing level. As for the stitches are not dense, it is normal. There is a lack of needles and threads.

The two young mothers checked the number of cloth ends that Qi Ke brought, and said they could make two pairs of shoes, so they each took charge of one pair, and the remuneration was discussed with everyone, and they decided to need needles and thread, because everyone was in rags. The clothes are rotten, so I can change some cloth and needlework to mend the clothes for everyone.

So this matter was settled, the two mothers took their infants and young children to avoid going to the beach for the past few days while making shoes, and Qi Ke also threw a big cake, if the shoes were made well, she would turn around There are also new clothes and all the needlework and embroidery work for furnishing the new home can be distributed to them.

Of course, Qi Ke's big pie is not just talk, but a real need. Apart from not knowing how to make shoes, she can use sewing machines, but it will take time and energy for her to do it herself.

The women who were a little envious of the two young mothers all laughed now, and even the two pregnant women stood up quickly, carrying the basket with their stomachs upright and ready to go out with everyone.

Making shoes does not interfere with chatting. The two young mothers took Qi Ke to the home where they lived together. The two children were put on the bed, and the three of them sat around the table. The two women answered while busy with their hands. Various questions about Qi Ke.

During the chat, Qi Ke learned that these two are aunts and sisters. The elder sister’s surname is Zhu and the younger sister’s surname is Hong. The girls in the village have never had a big name since they were young. sister.

Both of them were originally from Siliu Village. After the disaster in the village, the sisters did not live. Passers-by said that they married to another county. The age difference between the two is three years. The difference in children is only two months. He was overly frightened and developed a high fever, and died within a few days. This was a rebirth after remarriage. The younger sister was the first marriage, and the child was the first child.

The younger sister, Sister Hong, was just a few days after her confinement. Haikou suddenly appeared in the county where they lived and shot and killed them. Half of the county government office was burned down. The two families lost their homes again. Finally, the two sisters were reunited. When they fled back to Siliu Village, both of them said they were as embarrassed as beggars.
