Chapter 32

Mrs. Zhao looked at the white-faced steamed buns, and felt grateful for a while: "They have really kind hearts."

Seeing the three children each holding one, reluctant to eat, Zhao and Su Sanlang wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.

Finally, Mrs. Zhao said softly, "Eat."

"Mom, you and dad can eat too."

Su Sanmei was reluctant to bite, and Su Chong and Su Hua took a big bite after Mrs. Zhao spoke, showing satisfied expressions.

Mrs. Zhao touched Su Sanmei's hair gently, and said with a smile, "Mother knows how to eat it. You can eat it. There are more here."

In this way, Su Sanmei began to eat steamed buns.

Su Sanlang took one for Mrs. Zhao and said: "My dear, you can eat one too. We will have the rest for dinner later in the evening. Cut up the stewed meat and cook it with dried vegetables at night."

Mrs. Zhao looked at Su Sanlang and said, "Daddy, then I will give you half."

Being thought of all the time, Su Sanlang felt very warm in his heart. He said with a smile: "Mother, I have already eaten two big steamed buns in the Sun Mansion, and Master Fu let me eat them, and even gave me water. I didn't lie to you, really."

Mrs. Zhao looked at Su Sanlang and saw that his eyes were not evasive, with a smile and sincerity, and she believed it. She smiled and said, "Okay, then I will eat."

Su Sanmei took her two brothers out to eat.

Su Sanlang took out five taels of silver and handed it to Mrs. Zhao, saying: "My dear, please keep this silver. I have inquired with Master Fu. There is a miscellaneous doctor's hall in Yangjiao Town. In two months, we After saving some more money, our family will go to the city during the Chinese New Year, take Brother Chong and Brother Hua to see the doctor, and let the doctor show you how well you are recovering."

Mrs. Zhao finished eating the medicine prescribed by old man Wu, and her complexion and body were much better than before.

But if there is a chance, he still wants the doctor in the city to show Mrs. Zhao another look.

Mentoring Su Sanlang's plan, Mrs. Zhao nodded with tears in her smile: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

It doesn't matter whether she sees it or not, the most important thing is to show it to the two sons, but there is no need to say this, Su Sanlang loves her, how can she brush off his love.

The two looked at each other and smiled, Zhao's heart was warm, and Su Sanlang's was not.

He is the backbone of the family, sheltering them from the wind and rain, but all his warmth and belonging are also given by them, the wife who supports him and understands him, and the obedient and well-behaved children are all given to him by his wife Zhao.

Su Sanlang picked up Su Xiaolu and played with her.

Su Xiaolu smiled and was full of expectations for the future of this family.

"My dear, the family will have to work hard for you during this time. When I go into the mountains tomorrow, I will take Brother Chong and Brother Hua with me. After October, there will be basically no work in the fields. , but other people have to chop firewood and dig the ground, and when everyone is free in November, they will also think about going into the mountains to grab something, so I have to take advantage of this month to make more traps."

Su Sanlang looked at Mrs. Zhao and said, he had to take advantage of this time to earn more money, so that he would have the money to pay for the two children to see a doctor.

Mrs. Zhao also knew it in her heart, she nodded: "Don't worry, I will leave everything at home to me."

Su Sanlang counted the days and said: "The hen has been in the nest for twenty-one days, and the chicks will be out of the nest in these few days. I have to work hard for you."

Mrs. Zhao smiled: "It's hard work, you don't have to worry about family affairs, I've done a good job."

Mrs. Zhao knows very well that in October, the busy days of farming are almost over, and most of the households are cutting firewood and plowing the land.

And Su Sanlang had prepared all these in more than a month, so when others chopped firewood and turned the ground, he could take his two sons into the mountains to make traps to catch wild animals.

Su Sanlang did all this for her and the child, how could Mrs. Zhao drag him back, so she let Su Sanlang feel at ease.

Even for a long time, Su Sanlang was not idle, carrying water to irrigate the ground and weeding.

Mrs. Zhao asked Su Sanmei and her three brothers and sisters to take care of Su Xiaolu, while she boiled warm water to knead the noodles, added some ground gold and jade stick powder to the noodles, and then used them to steam steamed buns, so that big, thick steamed buns came out. , This is what she prepared for Su Sanlang to take the child into the mountains.

Early the next morning, Su Sanlang woke up his two sons and went out.

Mrs. Zhao took Su Sanmei and Su Xiaolu at home, kept the house tidy, and watered the fields every day to ensure the soil was moist.

At noon, when Su Sanmei was catching insects to feed the chickens, she heard the crowing of the chickens. She walked into the chicken coop cautiously to see, and a fluffy head came out of the hen's wings.

Su Sanmei exclaimed, "Wow."

Mrs. Zhao was feeding Su Xiaolu in the house when she heard a voice asking, "Third Sister, what's the matter."

Su Sanmei replied in surprise, "Mother, our chick has hatched."

Seeing the hen's wings protruding from the chick's head one after another, and making a small cry, Third Sister Su said happily, "It's so cute, just as cute as Sister Fourth."

Mrs. Zhao in the house also smiled when she heard Su Sanmei say that the chick had hatched, and said to Su Xiaolu while fastening the buttons: "Fourth sister, let's go, mother will take you to see the chick. I guess it's the same." It will be out of the nest in two days."

Mrs. Zhao came out with Su Xiaolu in her arms, and handed Su Xiaolu to Su Sanmei, who then lifted the hen away.

Out of the sixteen eggs, eight had already hatched, and the other eight also showed signs of pecking at their shells. Zhao sighed in relief, "It would be great if only sixteen chicks could be hatched."

"Mom, chicks are so cute, they are so small, can they eat bugs?"

Su Sanmei asked, she knew

The newborn fourth sister needs to drink mother's milk to grow up, so what will the newborn chick eat, since the hen has no milk.

Mrs. Zhao smiled and said: "Mother has prepared them for a long time ago. When they are newborn, they can only eat some vegetable leaves or bran, but we don't have bran at home, so we can give them some powder ground from gold and jade sticks, or Chicks can't eat much, but when they grow up, they can eat bugs."

Food is expensive, but when the chicks grow stronger, they can eat bugs.

In the two wastelands in front of the house, there are countless insects, enough for them to eat.

"Mom, when the chickens can eat worms, I will catch a lot of worms for them every day, and make them fat."

Su Sanmei said happily that from this moment on, her goal is to fatten this group of chicks.

Mrs. Zhao smiled and said, "Third Sister is not afraid of hard work."

Su Sanmei shook her head, she was not afraid, and catching bugs was not hard at all, she was just playing.

Mrs. Zhao stroked Su Sanmei's hair, but said nothing.

She focused on the unhatched eggs.

Su Xiaolu was also watching it at first, but after watching it for a while, she lost interest.

Just struggling to look outside, Third Sister Su immediately understood: "Mother, Fourth Sister wants to go to the yard, I'll take her out to play."

Mrs. Zhao nodded reassuringly and said, "Go, be careful."
