When Shen Chi saw this scene, he suddenly remembered that his eldest aunt used to work in the county garment factory, and then she was unemployed at home after marrying Xiao Mingjin.
If you want your aunt to live a confident and dignified life, you can let her resume her old career. Thinking of this plan, Shen Chi took it seriously, so he said to Shen Aizhi: "Aunt, please give me and Sun Tao some shorts."
"We don't have any materials now. Can I prepare it for you when my aunt goes to the mall tomorrow and pulls out a few feet of cloth?" Shen Aizhi said with a smile.
Gui Shuzhen, who was washing clothes in the well water, heard this and hurriedly yelled at Shen Chi: "Your aunt is divorced and has children now. Please stop quarreling with your aunt. If you want the shopping mother to take you to the town to buy tomorrow."
"Second sister-in-law, you can't even buy me two clothes, so don't worry." Shen Aizhi said with a smile.
Shen Chi just smiled and said nothing. The purpose of buying clothes was just to help his eldest aunt find her own career. When he went to the mall, he could slowly guide her step by step.
On Sunday, Shen Aizhi handed the child to Hu, and sure enough, she took Shen Chi and Sun Tao to the county shopping mall. She didn't notice the three of them and left. Gui Shu stamped her feet angrily and said, "This child is really unacceptable." Sensible. ”
The two arrived at the county shopping mall. Shen Chi guided her aunt to look at the exquisite clothes inside. Seeing her aunt looking at the clothes in a daze, Shen Chi took the opportunity to guide her: "Auntie, haven't you worked in a clothing factory before? You can do it too. Make your own clothes and sell them."
Shen Aizhi was very moved after hearing this, and then shook her head and said: "It's not that easy to make clothes. You need to accumulate goods. The cost is too high."
Shen Chi remained silent and planned to think of another way.
Fortunately, the country abolished cloth stamps in 1983, so stamps were no longer required to buy cloth. Shen Aizhi pulled two meters of high-quality cloth and two meters of polyester fabric with striped patterns.
Since this was Sun Tao's first time in the county, everything he saw was strange and his eyes were overwhelmed.
Shen Aizhi took her two children for a walk and bought them soft drinks. She was about to take them home. How could Shen Chi miss this opportunity to enter the county? He immediately asked his aunt to take him to the library. Pavilion.
Nowadays, Shen Chi is a frequent visitor to the library, and has long been familiar with the administrator's aunt. As soon as he entered the library, he greeted her: "Auntie, I'm here to exchange books."
"Okay, have you finished reading the book again? You kid, adults are not as diligent as you in reading. It would be great if my Shanshan was as smart as you." The administrator's aunt smiled at Shen Chi while checking the books.
Shen Chi smiled and said nothing. When the books were checked, Shen Chi went to look for books on the bookshelf again.
This time Shen Chi deliberately picked two books on clothing tailoring and design. Seeing that Shen Chi had taken nearly ten books, Shen Aizhi couldn't help but curiously asked: "Xiao Chi, do you borrow so many books every time? "
"Almost, but I borrowed two books for you today, aunt." After saying that, he took the books to the administrator's aunt for registration.
After coming out, Shen Aizhi asked curiously: "Xiao Chi, you just said that you borrowed two books for your aunt. What books are they?"
Shen Chi hurriedly found the two books on clothing cutting and design and handed them to her aunt. Shen Aizhi was shocked, and her eyes looking at Shen Chi couldn't help but soften a little.
"You are interested." Shen Aizhi took the book from Shen Chi's hand and said softly.
After Shen Chi went into the city, Sun Tao's knowledge also increased a lot. When he got home, he took out his textbooks and started to review them. As usual, Shen Chi went to the backyard to ferment the vegetables and ginseng at home, and saw his mother fermenting them. The mature manure was picked to be used as base fertilizer in the newly opened wasteland.
His father was carrying water to water the cherry trees. Seeing his father carrying loads of water back from the river several miles away, Shen Chi wondered whether he should dig a well.
After dinner, many people watching TV gathered at Shen Chi's house. Shen Chi was studying in his room without hesitation. After staying with him for a long time, even Sun Tao stopped watching TV and started studying whenever he had time.
Every time Shen Fang saw her younger brother studying hard, a sense of crisis arose in her heart, so she also studied, but she couldn't hold on for long and couldn't help but run to watch TV.
Shen Aizhi took advantage of her mother to help take care of the child and took a rare opportunity to look at the book Shen Chi borrowed for him. She had a good foundation and could understand the introduction in the book at a glance. After a while, she was immersed in the clothing introduced in the book. Among the cutting methods.
On Monday, as soon as Shen Chi and Sun Tao arrived at school, Teacher Duan called him to the office and said he wanted to see him for something.
Shen Chi was curious, so he came to the office with Teacher Duan. At this time, the other teachers had not yet come, and the old principal was sitting on his desk with a serious look on his face, looking at a letter in his hand.
Seeing Shen Chi arriving, the old principal handed the letter in his hand to Shen Chi.
I saw it read: "Hello, Principal Song! Shen Chi, a student of your school, has been found to have quality problems with fighting with others. After consideration, he will not be allowed to participate in the National Mathematical Olympiad Competition for Primary School Students. This is hereby notified."
Shen Chi returned the letter in his hand to the principal, with a puzzled expression on his face: "What's going on?"
Shen Chi was secretly shocked, Wang Weizhong! Is his revenge coming so soon? He smiled fearlessly: "It's okay, gold will shine everywhere. It's just a competition. It doesn't matter whether you go or not."
"No, you are a rare student with both good character and academic performance. You will never bear this stain. The more you are not allowed to go, the more we will go!" Principal Song said resolutely.
"But now the county education bureau has issued a notice. We can't participate without a letter of introduction." Teacher Duan said helplessly.
"When I received this letter yesterday, I immediately went to find one of my classmates. He is now the principal of the third primary school in Songyuan County. I have already made an agreement with him to transfer Shen Chi's student status. He is now a student at the No. 3 Primary School in Songyuan County and is studying at our Longquan Primary School on loan." Principal Song explained to the two of them.
"Isn't Songyuan County the county next door to us?" Teacher Duan exclaimed in shock.
Principal Song nodded and said, "Not bad."
As he spoke, Principal Song said to Shen Chi again: "Student Shen Chi, I'm just telling you this to prepare you mentally. Don't be stressed, prepare for the competition with all your strength, and try to get good results this time, so that those who Let those who attack us take a good look."
Shen Chi was deeply moved by Principal Song's tireless efforts for him, and firmly promised Principal Song: "Principal, I will definitely live up to your hard work and expectations!"
"Okay, go and prepare for class. Prepare well these days. Next week you and Teacher Duan will go to the provincial capital." The principal told Shen Chi. This chapter has been completed!
