Back to the era with space supplies

Chapter 343 Effective Communication

In the south there is work all year round, and the real rest is probably only during the Chinese New Year. Today is the sixth day of the first lunar month, and the New Year has come to an end.

Before the start of the busy year, people finally came to the county or town to buy supplies, so there were many more people on the streets than usual, and there were many teenagers and girls among them.

It should be that in the past year, I saved a few cents per cent, or maybe I got a few cents and cents during the Chinese New Year. I went to the county department store before the production team got busy. I can join in the fun even if I can't afford anything, and when I get back to the team, I can talk to the younger sisters who are better and couldn't come together.

Si Ningning was attracted by a group of young girls walking by arm in arm, laughing and discussing in a low voice. Huo Lang turned around with the front of the car. Seeing her eyes looking away, she was still walking forward in a daze. Huo Lang stretched out his hand to tease her. Touching the end of her hair, she said with a smile:

"Go to eat first, and we will go to the department store in a while. There are new products for the Chinese New Year, and those young lesbians are all here to see the tricks."

The pattern of the clothes, the pattern of the headband, and what one shoulders.

These kinds of finished products are generally not cheap, and the price is more than ten yuan. Not many people can afford it, and even fewer people are willing to buy it. Most of the young girls who wandered around department stores in the past went to see new patterns. There are a few people with strong hands-on ability. After reading it here, they can collect cloth heads and stitch them together to imitate a pattern when they go back.

Si Ningning looked slightly embarrassed.

She just glanced at it casually just now, not thinking about going to the department store.

But since the topic was about the department store, Si Ningning turned around and followed Huo Lang to the state-run restaurant, and said, "Eat first, and then go to the department store after eating, and then see if I can buy something." A few feet of soft fabric, Sanae is getting bigger, and I have to make a few close-fitting clothes..."

Si Ningning breathed a sigh of relief as he spoke, and continued to tell Huo Lang, "It's not that particular about raising children in the village, but girls and boys have different body structures after all, and there are some things that should be informed as soon as possible, so as to avoid problems in the future when they grow up. , then it will be uncomfortable for a lifetime.”

Huo Lang's understanding of raising babies is still on the basis that boys and girls wear diapers the same way. He really doesn't know much about other things. What Si Ningning said, he heard in a cloud, vaguely Zhong also felt that it made sense.

He is a man, and there are some special circumstances that need to be paid attention to in terms of female body structure. Usually, he is too embarrassed to ask someone for advice. Si Ningning is a lesbian himself, so he must be more proficient in this area than him.

Thinking about it, Huo Lang nodded, "Look at it, what is missing, make up for it together during this trip, don't worry about the money."

While talking, he freed his hands to rub his sharply shaved cropped hair, with a sincere expression in embarrassment, "There are many things I don't understand, and it's not easy to tell Sanae, I guess I'll have to rely on you to point them out in the future." .”

Si Ningning put her fist to her lips and gave him a wry smile, "Don't worry, aside from anything else, I'm still her teacher... I will teach what I need to teach."

"En." Huo Lang nodded, raised his jaw sideways, and said with a hearty smile: "Let's go, eat first!"

Let Si Ningning go upstairs first, Huo Lang parked his bicycle at the door, and after entering the state-run hotel, he gave instructions at the counter.

It was already past the time for breakfast, and there were not many guests in the state-run restaurant. The comrades at the counter promised to help carry it upstairs. Huo Lang thanked him in advance, handed over the money ticket, and turned to go upstairs.

Si Ningning was sitting by the window on the second floor, and when she saw Huo Lang coming around from the stairs, she quickly waved to him.

When Huo Lang sat down across the table, Si Ningning asked, "What did you order again? I forgot to tell you just now, I can't eat much in the morning."

"I didn't order too much, so I ordered a lotus root pork ribs soup and noodles. I asked them to put the noodles in the soup. The ribs soup is really good, and the noodles are enough for the two of us."

Si Ningning nodded clearly, and asked again: "The lotus root you mentioned? The nine-hole lotus root?"

"Eighty percent."

The lotus roots that come out of Zhima Lake are all nine-hole lotus roots, but the place where lotus roots are grown as a sideline is not limited to Zhima Lake. For example, the Seventh Brigade of Hongqi Commune also grows lotus roots.

If it is supplied nearby, it is very likely that the nine-hole lotus root will be served soon.

But it's hard to say, after all, the lotus root planting in the Seventh Brigade is not large, and the batch of lotus roots handed in years ago may have been divided up by the farmers' markets in the county and town, and it is not impossible.

Si Ningning is not very clear about the details, but he can roughly understand that the supply channels are different, and the "products" presented are naturally different, so he just nodded slightly and didn't say much.

The pork ribs noodles in lotus root soup were served quickly, so you must be lucky, right?The lotus root in the bowl is the nine-hole lotus root that Huo Lang has mentioned several times.

Under Huo Lang's earnest and expectant gaze, Si Ningning pushed aside the noodles, picked up a large piece of lotus root from the bottom of the bowl, and took a bite.

Well, how do you say it?

Si Ningning hadn't decided what to say before Huo Lang unconsciously stirred the noodles in the bowl with chopsticks in his hand, but stared at her closely with his deep peach eyes, "How is it?"

Si Ningning chewed and swallowed the lotus root slowly. Compared with Huo Lang's expectations, her answer was a bit unsightly, "Well... it's rusty and powdery enough, but in comparison, I prefer the one eaten raw in May and June. taste."

In May and June, lotus root is really tender. Eating it raw not only tastes crisp, but also tastes so sweet that it feels like eating fruit.

Si Ningning ate it once, but the texture and taste were always in her mind.

She thought that Huo Lang would probably be disappointed when she said that, because she repeatedly did not approve of Amway's stuff, but Huo Lang was just slightly stunned on the opposite side, and after he realized it, he shook his shoulders and let out a low hoarse laugh.

"Haha, hahaha."

Si Ningning pouted slightly, raised her eyebrows and turned her head puzzled, "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing." Huo Lang shook his head, still couldn't help laughing.

A little bit of anger surfaced in Si Ningning's heart, leaning forward and pinching the back of Huo Lang's hand across the table, "Say it! What are you laughing at! What are you laughing at?!"

"I'm laughing that you are Si Ningning." Huo Lang let her pinch her, with a warm smile on his handsome face, "If it was someone else, after I've said it so many times, even if it was a lie, he would say 'hmm! The taste is really good', right? ?”

Huo Lang deliberately made an exaggerated expression, and returned to normal after speaking, looked at Si Ningning with a smile and said, "But you didn't, and you won't, do you know why?"

He threw the question to Si Ningning.

Si Ningning paused slightly and shook his head lightly.

But Huo Lang said again: "Because you are Si Ningning."

Huo Lang "sucked" a big mouthful of noodles, his handsome face always maintained a gentle smile, but what he said made Si Ningning unconsciously slow down.

他 说:

"Si Ningning will not lie, let alone violate her true feelings."

Si Ningning stared blankly at Huo Lang, seeing the trust and understanding in Huo Lang's deep eyes, she suddenly felt a little ashamed.

She doesn't deliberately lie, but when she speaks, there are seven, seven, eighty-eight false elements in it, and there are eighty if not one hundred.

Things that cannot be explained by words, such as space and time travel.

Si Ningning thought that under normal circumstances, her concealment measures were understandable, but under Huo Lang's trusting gaze, she always felt as if a burden had suddenly been lifted, and her back was extremely heavy.

If you want to stay together for a lifetime and hide something in the middle, then it is impossible for two people to reach a state of true heart-to-heart communication.

In the future, in the future, if there is a suitable opportunity, she may reveal her secret to Huo Lang, but that is in the unknown future, not the present.

Si Ningning's throat slipped, she adjusted her expression and smiled disapprovingly. She lowered her head and took a big mouthful of noodles. She slurred her speech, and hummed and smiled at Huo Lang jokingly: "Don't play tricks here, implying that I won't let you in the future. lied to you?"

Huo Lang laughed and shook his head, "No."

Si Ningning pretended to stare, "Then tell me, what kind of person can never tell a lie? You think too much of me, isn't that putting pressure on me?"

"Okay, okay, I'm wrong, I'm wrong..." Huo Lang admitted his mistake with a smile, and then gnawed on the ribs while chattering: "But didn't I want to say that you really have a temper?"

"The truth can't be fake, and the fake can't be true. You just need to know who I am, but once you say something, it will become a bondage." Si Ningning tilted his head and gave a low "um", and gave an example after consideration. "For example, when I think of these words when I do things in the future, will I consider what you think of me after doing this for the first time? Will it affect my image in your heart?"

"If this is the case, how tiring it is! People will also become rigid and follow the rules."

Si Ningning analyzed his point of view objectively.

What Huo Lang said was based on his trust and recognition for Si Ningning, but if you think about it from another angle, it is very similar to the labeling behavior of later generations, especially based on the fact that Si Ningning really has something to hide in his heart. That's why Si Ningning was clearly repelled.

Obviously it was a topic of small talk, at first Huo Lang felt that Si Ningning was a bit over the top, but after listening to Si Ningning's thoughts, he felt that what Si Ningning said was very reasonable.

In a word, proper communication can always solve all problems.

To say that a mature man has the advantages of a mature man, such as knowing how to love others, such as correcting when you know a mistake, and having a good attitude.

Huo Lang laughed dumbly, and after apologizing to Si Ningning again, he said seriously:

"That's good. It's also my first date. Except for a few girls in my family, I have basically never had contact with other lesbians. If I don't do well in the future, you can tell me what you think like now. , I promise to correct it."

Although the knot in her heart has not been untied, Huo Lang's kind attitude really made her feel relieved.

Si Ningning raised her crescent eyebrows, her cheeks bulged slightly on her white face, and her lips curled up into a bright smile, "You too, if there is anything wrong with me, you have to tell me."

"it is good."

"Hurry up and eat, it will be cold in a while...and there are a lot of things to do today!"

"Ah."

The small conflict was resolved peacefully, and the two looked at each other with a smile, lowered their heads and ate calmly.

There are indeed a lot of things to do today. In addition to buying things, I have to replace the new household registration page and visit Academician Liang, but with a scooter, things can be done with half the effort.

After the two of them finished their meal, Huo Lang took Si Ningning to Shan Mantang's house first by bicycle. On the one hand, he recognized the door, and on the other hand, he took away the car keys and temporary storage of the bicycle.

The bicycle is temporarily placed here by Shan Mantang, and the rattan box and vegetable basket are placed in the back seat of the car. Huo Lang took the car keys and drove by himself today.

After hearing this, Shan Mantang immediately agreed: "Okay Comrade Huo Lang, I happen to have some other matters at home today, so I will deal with them at home first, and wait for you to come over in the afternoon!"

"Okay, you are busy with your work."

Huo Lang nodded, "Yes", opened the driver's door, stood outside and inserted the key in, then pulled out to open the door of the passenger seat for Si Ningning. The car door was closed, and as for the entrance of the small courtyard, Shan Mantang's playful eyes were directly ignored by him.

Huo Lang got out and sat in the driver's seat, and "Bang" pulled the door shut. While adjusting the seat posture, he freed his hands and nodded around the driver's seat, "This is the handbrake. You can use it for a short stop. This is the steering wheel. lever, which is usually used for reversing and shifting gears."

These are basically the same as the operation methods of later generations of cars, Si Ningning nodded to express his understanding.

Huo Lang bent slightly sideways, and motioned Si Ningning to look at the brake pedal under his feet, "This car is an old car that was retired many years ago. It is different from the small cars that are newly released in big cities. The current small cars only have a clutch. , This car has two, and you have to step on it when changing gears."

This is a knowledge point, Si Ningning hurriedly leaned forward to take a look.

Huo Lang was afraid that she would confuse the clutch, accelerator, and brake, so he carefully pointed to each one and introduced the names and uses. After talking about all the controls, the two of them leaned back on the back of the seat. You can learn it all at once, you should memorize this first, and I will teach you other things next time."

Si Ningning nodded obediently, and Huo Lang slowly started the car and drove out. Like an outstanding student in class, she kept paying attention to Huo Lang's control process.

And as the car drove out of the alley, Shan Mantang, who was leaning against the gate of the yard, scratched the back of his head, stepped on his feet to look into the alley, and muttered unconsciously:

"My mother, I know what is tenderness of an iron man!"

After finishing speaking, he slowed down for a while, then sighed softly and muttered: "Comrade Huo Lang, it's really not easy for the iron tree to bloom. You must bloom to the end!"

Si Ningning and Huo Lang went to do the household registration first.

Si Ningning has the original household registration page and the seal of the brigade's previous grain and oil relationship. These things can prove her identity as an educated youth, and the new household registration page will be printed into a red booklet and handed over to her soon. During the period, I also paid two cents for the booklet.

Si Ningning carefully put away the independent household registration book, and after leaving the office hall, he followed Huo Lang into the car and went to Academician Liang.
