43. Chapter 43

"Ji Yanjun?" Wen Qing was stunned and asked in surprise.

"Hmm." Wen Peng nodded.

Wen Qing looked at Wen Peng, and still asked in disbelief: "He cut beans for our family?" ”

"He cut the beans for our family for three days." Wen Peng said: "How much and how fast do you cut? ”

Wen Qingli sighed in his heart: "Does everyone in the village know?" She and Yao Shiling just clarified what the marriage said.

"Why do the people in the village know?" Wen Qing was puzzled.

"He went to our field to cut beans, how could the people in the village not know?" Wen Qing asked rhetorically.

"Eldest sister, you forgot, we cut beans in Shuiwan Village in the second half of the night." Wen Peng said: "It's very dark. ”

"Cutting beans in the middle of the night?" Wen Qing asked, "Because the dew is heavy?" ”

"Yes, if the dew is heavy, the ripe bean stalk will not be pricked, the cooked bean stalk will not be exploded, the beans will not fall into the ground, and when the morning dawns, the bean stalk will be pulled home in an ox cart and poured into the yard to dry. In this way, you can harvest several catties of beans per acre. Wen Peng said with a serious face: "When the sun comes out to cut beans, the beans are easy to collapse into the ground." ”

"So, Ji Yanjun came to our field in the middle of the night?" Wen Qing asked.

"Hmm."

"How does he know where our land is?" Wen Qing asked again.

Wen Peng looked at Wen Qing with wide eyes: "Yes, eldest sister, how does he know where our family's land is?" Didn't you sue him? ”

Wen Qing: "......"

"He knows all three acres of land!" Wen Peng said.

Wen Qing didn't speak, and pulled Wen Peng towards the vegetable market.

Wen Peng continued: "At first, my mother didn't let him cut, and my mother scolded him, so he didn't say anything, and my mother scolded him. Then my mother pulled him to the ground to talk, I didn't hear what my mother said, and my second brother didn't hear it, anyway, after he came back, my mother asked him to cut beans. ”

"And then?" Wen Qing asked.

Then he came in the middle of the night on his bicycle, and when it was almost dawn, he rode away with his sickle. Wen Peng said with a smile: "He also brought me and my second brother candy and cakes to eat, let us go back to sleep and don't have to cut beans." ”

Wen Qing was silent when he heard this, he has always been a responsible man, she was so ignorant in her previous life, he still fulfilled his promise and married her. In retrospect, "responsibility" is not always a good word.

"Sister, where are we going?" Wen Peng grabbed Wen Qing and asked.

Wen Qing realized that the vegetable market had passed, and said with a smile: "It's all your fault, and you didn't remind me." ”

Wen Peng grinned.

"Let's go grocery shopping." Wen Qing said: "Don't tell Mom, I know that Ji Yanjun helped our family cut beans, otherwise I won't buy you something to eat in the future." ”

"Okay, I'll keep it a secret!" Wen Peng said.

"Hmm." Wen Qing thought, maybe Ji Yanjun felt guilty, because the second uncle sacrificed himself to save him, he wanted to do something for the Wen family, so his mother was willing to let him cut beans.

Wen Qing didn't think much about it, took Wen Peng to the vegetable market, bought chicken, fish and meat, and bought some vegetables, his hands were full, and he went back to Aunt Xiao's tailor shop.

Aunt Xiao, Yao Shiling, and Carremon surrounded the sole and upper to see how to make the sole and upper fit better.

"Wen Qing, how can you buy so many vegetables, it's such a waste!" Yao Shiling didn't speak, and Aunt Xiao spoke first.

Wen Qing smiled: "It's okay, let's finally have a meal together." ”

Aunt Xiao had to stand up and help.

Wen Qing hurriedly said: "You are busy, you are busy, I will cook this meal today." I'm going back to school in the afternoon, and if the three of you can't make two pairs of shoes for me, I'm not at ease. ”

Aunt Xiao, Yao Shiling, and Baohong didn't step forward to help.

Wen Qing and Wen Peng carried the vegetables into the backyard.

Wen Peng put down the dish and said, "Eldest sister, the second brother is at home alone, we ate meat, but he didn't eat it." ”

Wen Qing smiled: "Don't worry, I'll keep one later, put it in the white porcelain jar, and you can take it back and give it to him to eat, isn't it okay." ”

"Okay." Wen Peng laughed.

There is a ground pot in the backyard of Aunt Xiao's tailor shop, after Wen Qing washes and cuts, Wen Peng sits in front of the ground pot to burn firewood, and Wen Qing cooks.

When the meal was ready, Wen Qing came out of the backyard, checked the shoes made by Aunt Xiao, Yao Shiling, and Baohong, gave a reasonable proposal, and showed the three of them a demonstration, and the three of them nodded understandingly.

"Okay, eat first, and then continue after eating." Wen Qing said.

"Yes, eat first." Yao Shiling echoed and cleaned up the dining table.

Wen Qing went to invite the shoe repair uncle again, and moved the shoe repair uncle and Bao Hong, mainly because it is not easy to eat a meal of meat in this era, and the shoe repair uncle kept saying to Bao Hong, so that Bao Hong must be diligent and work a lot.

Wen Qing smiled and urged everyone to eat.

Wen Peng's mouth was full of oil.

Wen Qing served vegetables to a few people.

After the meal, Wen Qing washed the dishes and chopsticks, and kept watching in front of Aunt Xiao, Yao Shiling, and Baohong, correcting the inappropriateness of the three in time, and repeatedly telling the three of them that quality is the first, and there must be no opportunism, so that the road of "Fengqing" in the future will be wider and wider.

It wasn't until three o'clock in the afternoon that Aunt Xiao, Yao Shiling, and Baohong made a pair of shoes that satisfied Wen Qing.

Wen Qing looked at it, nodded and said, "Okay, just do it." After making forty pairs of size 38 shoes, make five pairs of thirty-six, thirty-seven, and thirty-nine. I'll come next Friday and get forty pairs of thirty-eight yards. ”

"Okay." Aunt Xiao said.

Wen Qing looked at Yao Shiling: "Mom, if you are busy, take your shoes home and make them, it is very hard to run back and forth to the county." When the clothes and shoes are delivered, I will buy a bicycle. ”

"It's okay, what's the matter of running to the county every day, don't worry, the shoes are right, then we will know how to arrange the time, and we will definitely be able to make forty pairs of shoes on Friday."

"That's right." Aunt Xiao answered: "You don't need to take the soles of your shoes, it's not difficult to thread needles on white soles, don't worry." ”

Wen Qing nodded, then said goodbye to a few people, packed up his things, and prepared to go back to Nanzhou No. 1 Middle School.

Yao Shiling inevitably gave a few more words, Wen Qing nodded, and stepped out of Aunt Xiao's tailor shop.

After getting off the bus, she didn't go back to the green garden immediately, but went to the sewing machine sales center to see how much a sewing machine costs nowadays.

One hundred and eighty yuan for the butterfly brand, and one hundred and fifty yuan for the Yangtze River brand.

Wen Qing visited a few stores, went to the cloth shop, now the weather is getting cooler and cooler, although there are two or three months in autumn, but it is cold to say that it is cold, if the winter clothes can not keep up, the "Fengqing" brand will have a fault.

Thinking so, Wen Qing went to the cloth shop to buy Nizi fabric, khaki fabric, and corduroy fabric, and then returned to the green garden, and began to read books as soon as he got home, review what he had learned during the week, and preview Monday's lesson by the way.

In the evening, she was so hungry that she went downstairs to buy a bowl of noodles, which cost eight cents, thinking that if she let her mother know about this bowl of noodles, her mother would definitely say that she would not save.

Wen Qing thought so, and planned to wait for this batch of clothes to be sold, and then buy pots and pans, plus gas and bicycles, and then raise his living conditions.

"Well, it's decided!" Wen Qing said, went upstairs with a bowl of noodles, and began to imagine the style of the Nizi coat, and by the way, draw it in the dead of night.

The next morning, get up early to go to class.

As soon as I arrived at the classroom, I heard that there would be a monthly exam this week.

When I was a student, the top priority was all kinds of exams, and as soon as this news came out, many people became uneasy, and everyone listened carefully to the morning self-study and morning classes.

Ji Ningzhi no longer shows off her wealth and beauty, but immerses herself in reading, goes to Xinhua Bookstore to buy study materials, and asks questions to the classmates with good grades in the class.

Ji Ningzhi is not such a serious one, you must know that everyone has paid a lot of tuition, well, it's a lot, everyone has paid a lot of tuition to go to school, what's the matter if the grades are not good?

Wen Qing ran after class as usual, and there was no one to see in the evening self-study.

Everyone speculated that Wen Qing may have relapsed into his old ways, and he began to learn badly again, and he began to learn no skills again.

While Ji Ningzhi and Xu Shanshan were reading the book carefully, they did not forget to bury Wen Qing's two sentences.

Xu Shanshan: "What about the top student, how much can I see in her monthly exam this time?" ”

Ji Ningzhi smiled disdainfully: "Maybe I will be the first in the liberal arts class of the whole grade." ”

"Impossible!" Xu Shanshan said firmly: "She hasn't worked hard with you, how can she be the first." Besides, didn't you almost get a perfect score on all the mock questions? Maybe you're the first in the liberal arts class in the whole grade. ”

"How is that possible?" Ji Ningzhi said with a smile, but he was happy in his heart, waiting for the exam to come.

Wen Qing doesn't attach much importance to this exam, and the purpose of her school is to learn knowledge, not to take the exam. So, as usual, she reviews the previous day's content and prepares for the next day's content. Then more energy is spent making clothes.

There are still two days left before Friday, and Zhang Xiuying and others have already come to urge Wen Qing twice, and what they said was 20 sets of clothes, but now it has become 50 sets.

Wen Qing said that fifty sets of clothes were fine, but there were only twenty pairs of shoes.

Zhang Xiuying also agreed.

On Wednesday, Wen Qing drew the styles of early winter and late winter coats, cotton clothes, and coats.

The jacket is made of corduroy fabric, which has a thick texture and good warmth.

Cotton is indeed a good cover, and the inside is naturally cotton.

The coat is made of nylon fabric, molded and fixed, and kept warm from the wind.

Originally, Wen Qing planned to draw the style of pants at night, but the next day was about to take the exam, Wen Qing still wanted to review the content of the book again, so he put his pants aside for the time being.

The next morning, the second year of Nanzhou No. 1 Middle School entered the examination state.

On Thursday, the morning test is Chinese language and politics, and in the afternoon, mathematics and history are tested.

On Friday morning, English and Geography are examined, and the afternoon is off.

Although Wen Qing did not prepare for the monthly exam, she also went all out during the two days of the exam. Throw your heart and soul into the exam.

On Friday morning, she was holding a pencil case and was about to go to the exam, when Zhang Xiuying came again.

"Wen Qing, can you promise Sister Zhang that you must give me fifty sets of clothes today." Zhang Xiuying said.

"Good, good." Wen Qing said: "Don't get in the way, let me go to the exam first, at two o'clock in the afternoon, at two o'clock in the afternoon, I promise to send fifty sets of clothes and twenty pairs of shoes to the door of your store, okay?" ”

"Okay, I believe you." Zhang Xiuying said with a smile: "Take the exam well and strive for the first place in the school." ”

"Thanks, I'll do my best." With that, Wen Qing hurried away.

Wen Qing stepped into the examination room, began to take the English test, and finished the English test physics.

During the physics test, one classroom was as quiet as the previous five sessions, and occasionally a student could be heard poking the table with a small popping sound without scratch paper when making the test paper.

Half an hour after the exam, Wen Qing's stool made a small sound, and at the same time, everyone's eyes looked at Wen Qing.

Because Wen Qing handed over the papers!

It's in!

Half an hour!

When the classmates were shocked by Wen Qing's speed in doing the questions, Ji Ningzhi said disdainfully: "It's either a white paper or Hu Meng, what's so rare about sending a paper." ”

This sentence is deeply reasonable, and doing well in the exam is the king, so everyone bowed their heads and did the test papers.

Wen Qing handed in the test papers, walked lightly through the corridors of each class, and started running after leaving the school gate.

It's 10:50 a.m., and she has to go back to the county seat to get 40 pairs of shoes, and then go to Tangquan Clothing to get 200 sets of clothes.

Thinking like this, Wen Qing ran almost all the way, ran to the bus station, and after getting on the bus, he arrived at the county seat in more than half an hour and went straight to Aunt Xiao's tailor shop.

Aunt Xiao, Yao Shiling, and Baohong were still making shoes in Aunt Xiao's tailor shop, Wen Qing didn't have time to say hello, and asked directly: "Have forty pairs of shoes come out?" ”

"It's out, it's out. Fifty pairs out. Aunt Xiao said with a smile.

Wen Qing didn't ask why so many came out, but: "Pack them all, twenty-five packs, I'll take them away." Aunt Xiao, you and you, there are too many things, I can't take them. ”

"Okay." Aunt Xiao saw that Wen Qing was in a hurry, so she went to change her clothes and a pair of comfortable cloth shoes, so she picked up a bag of shoes and followed Wen Qing.

"Wen Qing." Yao Shiling shouted.

Wen Qing turned around: "Mom, the time is a little rushed, I promised others to do it, if there is anything, I will tell you when the goods are delivered." ”

"Okay, you slow down, go home for dinner on the weekend." Yao Shiling shouted with her hand on the door frame.

"Okay, I got it."

Wen Qing and Aunt Xiao carried twenty-five pairs of shoes and got on the bus. Wen Qing found that she lived with Ji Yan in her previous life, she didn't think she was so capable, but in this life, she found that she could eat and have the strength, as if she was effortless to carry twenty-five pairs of shoes.

"Wen Qing, there are still a hundred sets of clothes, right? Can we handle it? Aunt Xiao asked.

Wen Qing said: "After a while, we will go to the city, we will rent a bicycle, put everything on the bicycle, and we will push it to the pedestrian street." ”

"You have to pay 30 yuan to rent a bicycle, and you have to pay 1 yuan to rent a bicycle." Aunt Xiao felt that one dollar was too expensive to use a bicycle once.

Wen Qing smiled: "It's okay. ”

More than half an hour later, Wen Qing and Aunt Xiao got off the bus, first went to the car rental company to rent a permanent bicycle, filled in the information, paid the money, and put 50 pairs of shoes on the front bar of the bicycle.

Wen Qing pushed the bicycle and said, "Aunt Xiao, after I ride up, you sit in the back seat." ”

"You can ride a bike?" Aunt Xiao was surprised.

"Yes." She can ride a bicycle, it was Ji Yanjun who handed it over by hand, Ji Ningzhi learned to ride a bicycle and fell a few times, but she didn't fall once, and when she was about to fall back, Ji Yanjun ran to her quickly and even supported her with the car.

"Wen Qing, you're amazing." Aunt Xiao said.

Wen Qing had already ridden the bicycle at this time, the permanent brand old-fashioned bulky bicycle with a high rack, and when Wen Qing stepped on the pedals and rode up, the handlebars shook wildly. Waiting for Aunt Xiao to slam suddenly, she jumped to the back seat, and almost fell because the body was unstable, but fortunately, Wen Qing held it steady and ran with her feet.

One of the great benefits of a permanent brand bicycle with front bar is that it is easy to ride and can run fast.

After a while, I arrived at the Tangquan Garment Factory.

Today, Tang Quan is not here, Master Zhu is here, Wen Qing sampled two hundred sets of clothes, and she did it very carefully, she immediately took out one hundred yuan for manual fees to Master Zhu, Master Zhu excused himself, Wen Qing forced him to stuff it, and then tied two hundred sets of clothes to the back seat of the car.

There is no way to be a person with clothes tied to the back seat, Wen Qing pushed the bicycle, and Aunt Xiao supported her in the back of the car.

Master Zhu said: "Wen Qing, you should come to pick up your clothes in the afternoon, Mr. Tang said, come back in the afternoon and drive you." ”

Wen Qing smiled: "Don't bother Uncle Tang, I'll do this by myself." Goodbye, Master Zhu. ”

"Goodbye." Master Zhu looked at Wen Qing's back, and secretly said that she is really a good girl, whoever marries is blessed. Go back and see if your relatives are suitable, and give this girl a matchmaker.

Out of the Tangquan Garment Factory, Wen Qing and Aunt Xiao went straight to Nanzhou Pedestrian Street.

Wen Qing pushed the bicycle and walked fast, and Aunt Xiao followed the steps quickly.

Aunt Xiao asked: "Wen Qing, their family wants fifty sets, let's send two hundred sets over, can we sell them?" ”

Wen Qing smiled: "Don't worry, you can sell it." If we can't sell it, we'll pull it back. ”

"Hmm."

Wen Qing and Aunt Xiao walked quickly, walked for about forty minutes, and finally arrived at the pedestrian street.

"It's almost two o'clock, Wen Qing, where is Zhang Xiuying's store?" Aunt Xiao asked.

Wen Qing said: "This is this, turn a corner and be the main entrance of the store." ”

"It's finally here." Aunt Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

Wen Qing was pushing the bicycle, and just after turning a corner, he saw that Zhang Xiuying's store was crowded with people.

Aunt Xiao asked suspiciously: "Her family's business is so good?" ”

"It wasn't so good last time." Wen Qing said.

As soon as Wen Qing's words fell, Zhang Xiuying's voice came: "Wen Qing! Oops, the clothes are coming, they're coming, they're finally here! ”

Before Zhang Xiuying's voice fell, a group of people poured out of the store and flocked to Wenqing.

Wen Qing and Aunt Xiao were frightened at the same time.
