It has been raining for the past two days, and people only come out when the weather clears up. When Jiang Xinyu and Chen Yi arrived at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, the queue was quite long.
She looked at the sky and thought it would be dark when Chen Yi returned.
"You go home, I'm in this row, it will get dark soon."
Chen Yi said: "I will stay in the commune today." Because he was afraid of raining again, he told Widow Wang before leaving.
The so-called "dormitory" in the commune is the office area of the employees. A room is less than ten square meters, with two beds, a table in the middle, and a shelf and basin. The space is small, but it can barely be considered as everything. have.
In this case, Jiang Xinyu said no more.
Materials are in short supply these days. Buying things from the supply and marketing cooperative requires not only money, but also tickets. If you are unlucky, you can’t buy it even if you have money and tickets. For example, brown sugar is only available during the New Year and festivals, but it is more refined and expensive than white sugar.
The attitude of the salespersons was still condescending. When Jiang Xinyu was buying sanitary belts, Chen Yi was asking about brown sugar. There was no more brown sugar. He looked around and saw that the orange fruit hard candy was very beautifully made. He had already spoken, but Jiang Xinyu said: "Don't buy it. I haven't finished what you bought before."
She had never eaten so much candy before coming here.
The sanitary napkin was wrapped in a military coat by Jiang Xinyu. After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, and a little further away from the supply and marketing cooperative, she asked for the backpack from Chen Yi and put the things in it.
He took her all the way to school and watched her enter the dormitory before leaving.
The two of them seemed to have forgotten their previous confession, and they both tacitly agreed not to mention it again, and got along as usual.
In addition to studying, daily life at school also includes shouting slogans and working. Jiang Xinyu’s review progress is not slow. She focuses on the study of Chinese, mathematics, politics, history and geography. In her understanding of the 1977 College Entrance Examination, the College Entrance Examination is divided into Arts and sciences, although she didn't even know the specific percentage of each subject.
As for chemistry and physics, with all due respect to her, what she is learning now is somewhat different from what she will learn in school in the future.
Today's physics is about the knowledge of three machines and one pump agricultural machinery, and chemistry is about pesticides, fertilizers and other knowledge. The content learned has a lot to do with the grain output in the fields.
Jiang Xinyu knew that the country would undergo earth-shaking changes in just a few decades. She did not want to conquer this era. Her current goal was to eat enough to satisfy her cravings. Her longer goal was to get into college and leave here. If she could get the original owner's It would be better if you can take your relatives to college together.
It rained intermittently for three or four days. It cleared up completely on Tuesday. The sky was blue and blue, with white clouds that looked like paintings. It cleared up again. The temperature of the sun was several degrees higher than before. The wheat in the fields was made of green. When it turns yellow.
The people in the brigade started to resume work after they were almost done working on the ground, and the people in the film studio also wanted to resume filming. However, the heroine Chen Jiajia's illness never recovered.
After Chen Jiajia's fever subsided, a large red rash appeared on her body, on her arms, the back of her neck and her chest, which she couldn't help but want to scratch.
The barefoot doctor in the brigade usually only saw people with headaches and fever. After all, he had no professional medical knowledge. After looking at Chen Jiajia's arm, he said it might be rubella and asked him to go to the county hospital for treatment.
Dr. Li was not sure whether it was rubella, and did not dare to delay her condition. He strongly suggested that Chen Jiajia go to the county hospital for a check-up. The director and other staff of the studio also asked her to go to the county hospital for a check-up.
Chen Jiajia felt guilty. The rain had already delayed the progress. If she got sick again, she didn't know how long it would be delayed again.
Chen Jiajia had no choice but to wrap herself up tightly and get on the team's tractor, and was jolted to the county hospital.
After some questioning and examination, the doctor said it was eczema caused by allergy to mosquito bites.
This disease does not require hospitalization. The doctor concluded that it is acute eczema. After all, Chen Jiajia has not had this disease before, and it is also due to the sudden change in the environment and the acclimatization. The doctor told her not to go to places with many mosquitoes, otherwise the rash may never go away.
.
After Chen Jiajia returned to Wuliqiao Brigade with the medicine, she gave Li Yuezhen money and tickets and asked her to help buy some fine grains for health. As for what the doctor said, she could only ignore it. This was her first time filming.
The movie, she can't leave until the movie is finished.
Yingzi's scenes could not be filmed for the time being, so Fang Shibin could only arrange the scenes without Yingzi first.
When Jiang Xinyu went home on Friday, she walked to the river and saw people from the film studio filming the scene of falling into the river.
Zhang Zhiqiang, played by Zhou Qi, was severely beaten by the bully Peng Zhuosheng's servants, and then was thrown into the roaring river.
Nowadays, all filming is done by the actors themselves, unlike a few decades later when some delicate celebrities would use stunt doubles when filming dangerous scenes.
The river was not that fast at this time of year, but the water temperature was definitely not high. Zhou Qi knew how to swim, and he smiled brightly at everyone when he jumped up. This was in sharp contrast to the way he gritted his teeth, resented, hated, and would rather die than surrender when he was beaten just now.
Jiang Xinyu and Feng Xiaohua looked at each other for a while and then left. Halfway down the road, they waved goodbye and walked back to their respective brigade.
Chen Yi seems to be very busy this week. She hasn't seen him for a week since he sent her to school that day.
Before she even entered the courtyard, Xiao Hei waved his tail crazily and twisted his butt to greet her.
Xiao Hei is now a half-grown native dog, as tall as Jiang Xinyu's knees, with pointed ears, shiny fur, and a well-proportioned body shape despite not being fat.
Comrade Chen Xiuyun was washing clothes in the courtyard. Jiang Xinyu took a look at it. Judging from the color of the clothes Chen Xiuyun was washing, it was definitely not Comrade Chen Xiuyun's own or Jiang Yuzhu's. Those new pieces of cloth were not of this color either.
"Mom, whose clothes are you washing?"
Chen Xiuyun pointed to the house in the yard and said, "The two of them were given fifty cents."
Jiang Xinyu felt a little uncomfortable. Even if she was given money, she wouldn't do this job. Normally, it would be okay to give her money, tickets, and a meal, but that was inconvenient for them. Even though she was given money to do laundry, it was a transaction, but Jiang Xinyu just felt uncomfortable.
.
"Mom, you are not allowed to do this kind of work in the future, even if you give me money."
Seeing that she was not happy, Chen Xiuyun paused while rubbing her clothes.
Jiang Xinyu looked at the water in the water tanks. There was only half of the water left in the two tanks, so she simply took a bucket to fetch water.
Chen Xiuyun looked at her back as she went out with the bucket, and sighed in her heart, knowing that her little girl's self-esteem was rising. For her, she could get fifty cents for one wash, which was already a lot of reward. Five cents was already a lot of money.
You can also buy half a pound of meat on the black market. If you don’t buy meat, you can buy more if you buy other things. What a cost-effective deal.
The little girl is still young and thin-skinned, and feels that she is inferior to others if she washes their clothes.
Chen Xiuyun understands her little girl, but if she is paid to do the laundry next time, she will still do it.
She will do any job that can bring income to the family and is risk-free, so why not wash clothes?
Chen Jiajia, who was lying in the room, was writing a letter when she heard the conversation between mother and daughter and twitched her lips.
No matter how proud Jiang Xinyu was, she couldn't change the fact that her family needed the fifty cents. Those of them from the capital were completely different from the people from the Wuliqiao brigade.
Chen Jiajia quickly finished writing the letter to send home, folded it and put it in the envelope. She also wrote the address and zip code on the envelope clearly, and then affixed the stamp.
Her handwriting is delicate, the envelope looks very neat, and every word on it is very clear.
