Chapter 89 089 Mimi Visits
Mimi didn't have time to think too much, and the next five days didn't keep her busy.

During the day, she will go to work with everyone to collect cucumbers and eggplants, and then send them to the warehouse for storage. On the last day, she will drive an ox cart to the commune.

She doesn't need to go to the commune, and educated youths like them don't have their turn, but they still have to grow radishes and cabbages, not only in the vegetable fields, but also in the few fields that have been reclaimed.

When she got off work in the evening, she had to go up the mountain to collect firewood. The two dead logs sent to the educated youth courtyard were temporarily unusable and had to be dried for a few more days. This made Mimi immediately think that she should take advantage of the hot weather to dry two more dead logs. You can chop firewood.

A few dead logs are not enough for the firewood, she needs to pick up some dead branches, and she is too embarrassed to always go to the front yard to get firewood, so it is better to have some ready for use.

And she had to hug the pine branches, put the pine branches in the earthen stove, put four or five firewood on it, light the pine branches from under the earthen stove, the fire would burn quickly, and add more firewood when it was completely burned.

Mimi is still thinking about going to the county in a few days to see if there is any coal for sale, and if it is not possible, she can buy some coal slime.

I heard that most of the city people in the Northeast burn coal slime in winter, but very little coal is burned, and coal is expensive, and you can’t buy it without a coal ticket. Coal slime is different, and you can buy a truckload of coal slime for very little money. And there is no ticket.

Coal slime is the water that scours the coal and flows into the ditch. It has accumulated over the years to form a slime river. The slime is very sticky, and a bullock cart is basically a ton. After it is sold at home, it has to be dried for a few days. Stir the water into a thin mud, then use a rectangular mold to form a blank, and then dry it. After two or three days, it can be put away when it is completely dry. It burns too much smoke, choking people.

Coal slime is forbidden to burn. Large pieces of coal slime can be used to press the fire at night, and then poke it with a furnace hook in the next morning, so there is no need to ignite the fire, which saves firewood.

There are many things that can be burned in the countryside in winter, and few people buy coal slime, but this is what is burned in the city. After all, not every family can afford coal.

Mimi wanted to wait until autumn to buy some slime to burn. It was expensive, but burning was prohibited. Three lumps of slime a day were enough. It didn’t cost much money at all, and it was easy.

It's not the time to hug pine branches now, you have to wait until the end of September, or you can hang some at home now to dry, and you can use them when they are dry.

Mimi went out every evening to hug pine branches and pick up the branches that fell on the ground. There were very few branches on the ground, and Mimi got impatient, so she cut down a big tree and dragged it back to the Educated Youth Court to dry.

It has been another ten days since Mimi was busy. On this day, Mimi’s clothes were finally ready. During the day, she hated the sun and was afraid of getting tanned. At night, there was no sun, so Mimi went out wearing a short-sleeved top. Educated youth point.

As soon as he went out, he saw Xiang Rong and Hong Xue walking over one after the other, followed by Mina with her head bowed not far away.

Xiang Rong's complexion was not very good, very gloomy, Hong Xue's face was livid, and she turned her head to stare at Mina angrily from time to time. Mina seemed to have done something wrong, she lowered her head silently, and was a little far away from the two of them.

Mimi's gossiping spirit suddenly rose, and she looked at the three people with bright eyes.

As soon as Xiang Rong looked up, he saw Mimi who was watching the show with raised eyebrows.

Xiang Rong paused and stopped.

"Is Zhiqing Mi going out?"

Mimi nodded, "Ah, I have something to do when I go out, you guys just came back?"

Xiang Rong glanced back at the two of them, nodded, "Well, not together."

After Xiang Rong finished speaking, he entered the Educated Youth Academy, but he didn't see the resentful eyes of Hong Xue and Mina who looked at him with even uglier faces.

Mimi's eyes became brighter, and she looked at Hong Xue with a smile, "What's wrong with Hong Zhiqing? His face is so ugly?"

Hong Xue glared at Mimi, "What's none of your business?"

Hong Xue also entered the educated youth courtyard with her big braids, and there were only two sisters Mimi and Mina left outside.

Mimi couldn't laugh at Mina, she looked at Mina with a cold face, "What did you do again? How did you offend Hong Xue?"

Mina gave Mi Mi a hard look, and wanted to follow Hong Xue's example of shaking her head and leaving, but she stopped her when she passed by Mi Mi.

"Mina, no matter what you want to do, I warn you, don't mess with me, otherwise you won't be able to bear the consequences."

Mimi's eyes were cold, with a faint killing intent, and Mina shrank her neck in fright, and explained in a low voice, "I didn't do anything, don't blame me for everything."

Mimi snorted coldly, "Don't let me know that you want to spoil me again, or...you're dead."

After Mimi finished speaking, she ignored Mina and went straight to Zhou Xingguo with her short legs.

Mina turned her head to look at Mimi, her eyes were cold, like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, just waiting for Mimi to bite when she relaxed her vigilance.

Mimi thought as she walked.

Although I don't know what happened between the three of them, but I can more or less guess that it can change Xiang Rong's face. It must be related to Mina and Hong Xue. The three came back together again. Xue looked at Mina as if she killed her father and enemy. If she guessed right, either Hong Xue was entangled with Xiang Rong, or Hong Xue discovered Mina and Xiang Rong when they were together. Hong Xue liked Xiang Rong, and when she saw Mina Being with Xiang Rong, of course she was angry, maybe Mina and Hong Xue had a falling out.

Mimi doesn't care about other people's affairs, she just waits to watch the show.

He soon came to Zhou Xingguo, unfortunately, Zhou Xingguo went to the commune for a meeting, and was not at home. The village head's wife He Lan received Mimi.

Mimi smiled and greeted Mimi, "Aunt Lan is at home!"

He Lan was feeding the chickens, when he heard Mimi's voice, he immediately threw the pot into the chicken trough, and greeted him with a smile, "Mi Mi educated youth is here?"

Glancing at Mimi's big red flower short sleeves, she smiled even more cheerfully, "I'm just saying, it's better to wear some flowers to look good when you are young. You used to wear green military uniforms, and my aunt wanted to give it to you." You made a dress."

But don't, we are not relatives or friends, how inappropriate and easy to misunderstand.

Mimi smiled and nodded, "I also think this dress is pretty."

Saying something against her will, Mi Mi didn't blush or pant, and her heartbeat didn't speed up. The key is that this kind of thing is popular in this era, and she can be considered as a fashion.

He Lan nodded in agreement, "It's pretty. I think people in the city wear it like this. Later, you can make a skirt. I heard that people in the city wear Bragi, which is quite expensive."

Mimi nodded again, "That's right, all the young girls in our place wear Bragi, my aunt really knows a lot."

He Lan clapped his hands together, "Hey, I'm an old country woman who knows everything I've heard from my daughters-in-law."

This Mimi believes that she has heard about it a long time ago. Captain Zhou's family is short of daughters, and he treats his three daughters-in-law very well. One is more sensible, filial, and reasonable than the other. Since entering the door, she has never seen a monster. She is envied by the old men and women in every household in the village.
