Crossing the Unknown Country

Su He's grandmother did not give in, saying that the children were still young and that they could talk about it when they were older. Even the village chief did not give in, saying that the marriage could be discussed in two years.

Since Su He's family became better off, they found that many people in the village were kind to them and smiled when they met. Many of them were also because of Su He's grandfather's teaching. Anyway, Su He's family was getting better and better in the village.

Su He and her mother made a few more quilts and two large kang quilts these days, so that with the kang in winter, the family no longer has to suffer from the cold. Su He sometimes thought that at least the family was well fed and warm now, which was much better than when she first arrived.

Su He's father and mother now started making the noodles of later times. They found that this sold the best and was easier to make. Two small wooden sticks were used to wrap the noodles. After a while, they were stretched and slowly became thinner. You could stretch them as thin as you wanted. When they were well stretched, they were rolled into a round shape and fried in a pan to make instant noodles.

Su He's family went to the town to buy some white flour because they were making noodles. Su He went directly to give some noodles to Doctor Jin and his family, and of course they also gave gifts in return. Doctor Jin gave Su He a set of clothes made by his wife. Because Su He always gave Su He gifts, their relationship became closer and closer, and Mrs. Jin thought that the New Year was coming soon, so she made her a set of clothes.

Aunt Zhou didn't have any cotton last time they bought it, so she just happened to come in this time and packed a big bag of cotton for them. Su He didn't want it, so she said, "I don't want your things anymore in the future." Su He had no choice but to take it. She also took a bag of cloth scraps. Aunt Zhou doesn't sell them now, and she saves them for them. Of course, Su He also made some cloth bags and headdresses for her.

Su He is going to go home and make a quilt cover with a pattern, so that the family doesn’t have to take apart the quilts. Su He also told Aunt Zhou about his idea of ​​making quilt covers, so that she can sell more cloth. Su He is also going to go home and make a quilt cover for each quilt, so that they don’t have to take apart the quilts every year. Otherwise, the quilts will be dirty throughout the year, and it will take a lot of time to take apart the quilts and make quilts. It is so convenient to have a set of quilt covers and wash them once they are dirty. In fact, quilt covers were not invented until the 1980s. People in the past took apart quilts to make quilts, which was very hard. The less frequently you wash the quilt, the worse it smells, and it is even harder to wash it when it is dirty, which is a vicious cycle.

Su He planned to do this at home first. He had some cloth at home. He could put two sides together and add a lining underneath. He would make a quilt for everyone in his family first, and then he would do it after sleeping on the wind-pressed quilt in winter.

Boss Zhao of the bookstore gave the child a set of writing brushes, inkstones, and paper as a gift in return. Su He hurriedly thanked him. Boss Zhao smiled and thanked Su He for the noodles he sent. They looked delicious. Every time Su He sent something good, this child knew how to be grateful. He was also willing to help this child. Just based on the child's character, this family could not go wrong.

As soon as the war was over, Su He asked her father to take her to visit them one by one, and gave them the firewood and vegetables prepared by her family. Because she knew that they had just returned and these things were the most needed. After all, those who came back early had already emptied these empty houses.

This is how it is in troubled times. In order to survive, they will do anything. As long as they can survive, they will find and spend it. After all, fleeing is very expensive. Some people come back early because they can't survive outside. At least they have a house to live in. For food, they can only go to uninhabited houses.

Su He also wanted to do his best to help them in their most difficult time. They were actually prepared, but they were still moved by this family. Especially since the child was not very old, he always spoke and acted in accordance with their wishes, so they treated him better. This is what it means to be kind to others! Su He, a man in his twenties, knew that he must repay those who helped him after experiencing the beatings of society. These are the nobles of your life. You must cherish those who help you. Not everyone will be nice to you. Most people are indifferent and ruthless.
