Chapter 162 Guidance
Si Ningning had no choice but to give up, and filled the pot with half a pot of water. The basin was placed in the pot, and the lid was put on, reckoning that it should also have a little freshness preservation effect.

After finishing all this work, Si Ningning wiped and cleaned everywhere. Once the busy work was done, it was almost time. He Gu and San Miao didn't come over. I guess I remembered what she said yesterday, they wouldn't come out so early.

Si Ningning didn't wait, stuffed a few fruit candies bought by the supply and marketing agency into the bamboo basket, put on a straw hat, and went directly to the team with the military water bottle and elephant trunk pot.

As usual, go to get the rice bran first, and then go to the pigsty to clean and feed the pigs.

Originally thought that He Gu and the others hadn't left the house yet, but as soon as they turned into the alley, Si Ningning saw the two little pigs squatting by the side of the pigsty.

"Didn't you say it yesterday? Why did you come here so early?" Si Ningning walked over, put the straw hat and teapot on the stone pier beside her, and stuffed a piece of sugar into each of them.

While busy feeding the pigs, Si Ningning asked, "How long have you been here?"

"Actually, we just came, right? San Miao." He Gu handed the candy to San Miao, and followed Si Ningning around.

Sanae took the candy over there, hesitated for a moment before nodding, "Mmm... yes. Sister educated youth, we've only been here not long."

Si Ningning smiled after hearing this, "Okay... you guys play around for a while, I'll clean up here, and then go to deliver water to the educated youths in the field, and we'll go back to the educated youth spot later."

San Miao nodded obediently, while He Gu wandered around like a headless chicken, "Si Ningning, didn't you ask me to help you with the work?"

On the one hand, He Gu promised Si Ningning that he would help her with work.

On the other hand, he remembers the words of his elder brother Huo Lang, don't cause trouble for others, "good" is mutual, and you can't take everything for granted.

Si Ningning thought about it, it would be good to exercise He Gu, so he didn't refuse. He lifted his chin towards the bucket on the side of the pigsty, and said, "Then, let's see if Xiaocui is at home? If she is, just carry the bucket." Go over and press a bucket of water, I'll come over and carry it later."

"it is good!"

He Gu should be straightforward, turned around and ran to the other side of the alley.

Sanae followed closely behind, "Second brother, wait for me, I'll go too!"

After half an hour and four to ten minutes of work on the pigsty, Si Ningning walked on the ridge of the field wearing a straw hat and carrying an elephant trunk pot, followed by He Gu and San Miao.

Uncles and aunts who were working along the road saw it and joked: "Si Zhiqing, you are very popular, so you are now the king of children?"

Si Ningning responded with a smile: "I'm useless at work, so I'm just a child, auntie, don't make fun of me, or I'll be too ashamed to go out."

Tuesday's sister-in-law was also working nearby, and when she heard this, she straightened her back and said, "Hey Si educated youth, what my sister-in-laws said is not to blame you."

After saying that, Tuesday's sister-in-law took up the sweat towel around her neck and wiped her sweat, then turned to the commune members who were working nearby and said, "You don't know, do you? The educated youths here are very capable. They not only tell stories to children, but also teach How about reading! Our Cui Cui can write her own name."

"Hey! Is it true?" Someone immediately exclaimed.

Although people in this era are conservative in thinking, most of them still believe that reading and writing is the only way out.

Hearing that Si Ningning also teaches children to read and write, a sister-in-law said, "Si Zhiqing, my Ermao is also obedient, let him follow you tomorrow, can you teach him too?"

"And my Maodan!"

"My family, and my family's, my family's sledgehammer!"

The corner of Si Ningning's mouth twitched, he didn't expect this to happen.

Since my aunt and sisters-in-law were too enthusiastic, Si Ningning relaxed and said politely: "Okay, I usually work at the pigsty, so I can spare some time in the morning. If the children are interested, Auntie will let the children go to the pigsty." Find me over there, it happens to be cool there too."

All the sisters-in-law nodded in response, "Yes, yes, Si Zhiqing can say so."

Rural people are simple and simple, and they only have a concept of character recognition. If they don't know a word, they really don't know it.

But as long as they can recognize a character, they can recognize characters, which is very different from their crawling and eating in the ground.

Si Ningning nodded, and took He Gu and San Miao to the place where the educated youths were working.

Coincidentally this time, there was a large paddy field, and Mo Bei and the others had already cut the millet from the end of the field to the head of the field here, and they could finish cutting this field this afternoon.

When Si Ningning came over, the three of them came over with tea mugs and kettles.

Mo Beijun filled the water bottle with one hand against his sore lower back, stood on the ridge of the field and took a sip of water with his neck raised. He seemed a little puzzled. He lowered his head and stared at the water bottle first. , and then looked at Si Ningning who was still pouring water for Li Lingyuan and the others, "Is the water ice-free today?"

Si Ningning paused for a moment, then raised her eyes to see Mo Bei's sharp-edged face covered with beads of sweat, she explained carefully: "I'm a bit busy today, so I don't need well water..."

Today was the same as before, after passing by the threshing ground to pour water for the uncles and aunts in the team, Si Ningning planned to go to the pigsty and use the surrounding trees to cover up the space, but he didn't expect that He Gu and San Miao would be waiting there Over at the pigsty...

Seeing that Li Lingyuan and the others, like Mo Bei, were sweating and embarrassed, Si Ningning said, "I'll get ready in advance this afternoon."

Mo Bei didn't question Si Ningning, let alone blame him, but just asked him casually.

Hearing Si Ningning's answer, Mo Bei nodded, the tall man stood upright, and silently drank two more sips of water.

Just when Li Lingyuan and the others were yelling to continue working in the field, Mo Bei suddenly said indifferently: "It tastes the same whether it's cold or not."

Si Ningning let out an "ah" and was a bit unresponsive.

Mo Bei had already looked away, and handed the half-drunk water bottle horizontally to Si Ningning, returning to his usual calm appearance, and said, "Fill it up."

"Oh!"

The watering spout of the military kettle was small, and Si Ningning was worried that the water would spill, so when filling the water, he lowered his head and looked very intently, completely ignoring the strange flash of blush under Mo Bei's eyelids.

Only after Mo Bei tightened the military kettle, he raised his mouth, "I didn't buy the meat, but I bought the stick bone. Stew the stick bone soup at noon, you tell Li Lingyuan and the others, don't leave ink marks after work, and go home early!"

Si Ningning said "go home" very naturally, completely unaware that because of this sentence, a strange feeling flashed in Mo Bei's heart again.

"Okay." Mo Bei responded.

As soon as he stepped into the field, he heard Si Ningning suggest: "If you like to drink ice, wash the kettle for me after work in the afternoon, and I'll pour it for you when I cook in the morning?"

"...Okay." Mo Bei nodded in agreement.

Leaving the side of the male educated youth, Si Ningning took He Gu and San Miao to the other direction of the production team.

On the way, Si Ningning thought, the military kettle is warm in winter and cool in summer, it is very convenient, I must ask other people to buy it when I go back.

She and Mo Bei are using the same model, and currently only she has it, and the price on the black market is 12 yuan each, Xu Shuhua and the others must not be able to afford it.

But she doesn't have to be like this.

The military water bottles currently on the market are also equipped with inner tanks. The heat preservation effect may not be as good as hers, but it is not far behind, and it is more or less convenient.

Thinking about it, I have already arrived at the field where female educated youths work.

Si Ningning raised the brim of his hat and looked around, seeing a few people working hard not far away, stood on tiptoe and shouted in a high voice: "Shuhua, Xiaoyun, come here to drink water!"

As soon as the voice fell, Jiang Yue from the other end of the field was the first to poke her head out, trotted over, and shouted as she ran, "I'll count the time, you will come when the sun is overhead!"

Xu Shuhua followed behind, laughing loudly, "You can slow down, turn around and let others see, it is appointed that you are not active in your work, and you should be active in this kind of thing that drinking water can hide your laziness."

Jiang Yue stiffened her neck and retorted: "Taking a proper rest is to work better!"

After taking a sip of water, Jiang Yue asked the question Mo Bei asked before: "Why isn't the water cold today?"

Si Ningning still used the same rhetoric.

Jiang Yue said "Oh", and said: "It tastes better when it's cold, and it tastes better if it's not cold."

Si Ningning curled her lips and smiled, fully understanding what Jiang Yue meant.

Bringing up the matter of stick bones again, Si Ningning asked the three of them to go home early at noon, and then, under the cheers of the three girls, brought He Gu and San Miao back to the educated youth spot.

By the well, Si Ningning filled the pond with water, told He Gu and San Miao to wash their hands and face to get rid of the heat, and told them not to approach the well mouth, then turned around and went into the house to get things.

Finally, when he came out of the house, he held a stick pelvis in his arms and a basket of vegetables on his arm, and moved towards the well in a difficult and awkward posture.

When He Gu saw it, he quickly got up and ran to Si Ningning, stretched out his hand and said, "I'll help you."

"No, it's just two steps." Si Ningning declined politely.

It's a bit awkward to hold things in this posture, but after only a few steps, she just takes them and pulls them off the ground, which will cause more trouble.

"Oh……"

He Gu replied listlessly, and followed back to the well.

The temperature in midsummer is hot and dry, making it hard to get motivated, and the surrounding trees seem to gather countless cicadas. The cicadas singing "VVVV" never stop, making people feel sultry, but at the same time, their hearts are inexplicably entangled. A burst of anger may completely erupt in any quarrel or any place that is not smooth.

The wooden basin and basket were placed on the stone platform by the well, and Si Ningning wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hands. He also felt heavy in his heart, as if he was carrying an invisible weight on his back. Squint for a while.

Probably also should answer that sentence:
Spring sleepiness, autumn lack, summer doze, winter and March when I can't sleep.

Si Ningning crossed his hands and inserted his index fingers together, stretched his palms outwards over the top of his head, while stretching his waist, he also stretched his shoulders and arms, and regained his energy, "Put the water out of the pool."

Sanae took advantage of the situation and pulled out the rag that was stuck in the drain.

The water in the pool was gurgling out, just as a new bucket of water was brought up from the well.

Si Ningning raised his chin, signaled to Sanae to block the water outlet of the pool again, then poured water into it, and took out the cucumbers from the basket first to wash them.

There were only three small cucumbers in the basket. Si Ningning originally planned to make a plate of cold salad at noon. Right now, there were three of them. After she washed them, they would share one cucumber with each other on the spot.

"Eat and play." Si Ningning smiled with his eyes bent, "I'll go to work after eating."

As he spoke, he took a bite of the green cucumber.

Not to mention, the cucumber has a crisp taste and plenty of water. Although it is not as sweet as other fruits and melons, it is a different kind of comfort after being soaked in cold well water and rolled into the stomach with swallowing.

After eating a cucumber, during this period, there was a quiet breeze, and the heat gradually subsided. In an instant, Si Ningning suddenly laughed and felt a little emotional.

She actually felt that in such a scorching summer, sitting in the shade and eating such a small green cucumber could bring a little comfort to the ordinary days.

The days are busy and dull, but they are comfortable~

Jing'an's good years and life are sometimes a kind of life that many people long for.

And it just so happened that Si Ningning was one of these "many people".

Feel the regional culture, customs and customs in a remote mountain village.

Watch the sun, moon and stars shift under the old roof.

Under the shadow of the mottled trees, listening to the sound of the wind walking on the tip of the leaves...

For Si Ningning, all of this is a cleansing of the body and a precipitation of the heart.

She doesn't hate this status quo, on the contrary, sometimes she feels more carefree.

Si Ningning poured some water from the pool to rinse his arms, and poured the lettuce in the basket into it. While peeling off the outer leaves to clean the soil from the roots, he looked at He Gu and San Miao with a gentle smile, "Then please work hard, both of you." My little rabbit, help me wash the vegetables~”

San Miao was agile, and before Si Ningning could finish speaking, she had already started to help.

He Gu moved slowly and rolled up his sleeves. While choosing which dish to wash, he pursed his lips and asked confusedly: "Why is it a little rabbit? Why can't it be Ying Jiang? How powerful Ying Jiang is! If it is Ying Jiang If you do, you don’t have to worry about being bullied by other animals.”

"Yingjiang is very powerful." Si Ningning kept busy with his hands, and at the same time broke Hegu's expectations without hesitation, "But we are rabbits, and this cannot be changed."

"I'm not a rabbit!"

He Gu's emaciated melon-seeded face had puffed cheeks, he was stubborn and reluctant, and the corners of his eyes glistened, as if he was about to cry.

"There are many things in this world that we can't do whatever we want. You want to be Eagle Sauce because Eagle Sauce is powerful, right? In other words, you think rabbits are weak and easily bullied by other animals." Si Ningning pointed out the problem, and promptly guided and corrected it, "But in fact, we are rabbits, and this is a fact that no one can change."

"If we don't want to be bullied by others, we must stand up on our own first." Si Ning stared at He Gu.

While talking, she stretched out her hand again, and wiped away the tears overflowing from He Gu's eyes with her thumb, "Just like now, you are a little man, you have to find a way to solve things, you can't shed tears easily, let alone because things are not as good as you will, shed tears."
