With rice, I ate my heart and liver fried with chili peppers, and the blood tofu brought from Aunt Guo's house.

It felt like the most satisfying meal I've ever eaten since I was reborn.

After dinner, seeing that my mother-in-law also ate a lot, I didn't dare to let her sleep, so I took advantage of the dark sky to walk around the yard a few times, digest, digest.

It wasn't until I felt that my stomach was not so swollen and it was dark, so I went into the house with my mother-in-law to sleep.

In the middle of the night, when I was in a daze, I heard the cry of a child.

He sat up tightly, lit the kerosene lamp, put aside the wetted quilts and mattresses, laid them dry again, fed them again, and watched them fall asleep before they were about to fall asleep again.

I was in a daze when I heard the sound of crackling rain hitting the window lattice.

"Well, it's raining", he sat up and thought about whether there was anything in the yard that he was afraid of getting wet from the rain. After thinking about it for a while, I found that there was really nothing that was afraid of rain.

So he lay down again, and fell asleep to the sound of the rain. When I fell asleep, I thought that I would have to cool down tomorrow, and I would wrap the child in a thick quilt.

When I woke up again, it was already dawn, and the mountain village, which used to be very lively every day, was exceptionally quiet today, only the roosters in the village were still insisting on their daily work, standing in the heavy rain and singing.

Look at the gloomy sky outside and listen to the symphony of nature. I don't know what time it is, so let's be lazy for a while.

Lying here, I couldn't sleep, so I opened my eyes and looked at the children sleeping next to me, next to me was my daughter "obedient", then my son "steamed bun", and the mother-in-law who fell asleep on the kang head.

Lying on your side on the left side, looking at the expression on your child's face in his sleep, crying for a while, laughing and pouting for a while, is particularly interesting.

The old people all said that this is Mrs. Zhou, teach them to study in their sleep! If you learn well, you will laugh and learn, and if you don't learn well, you will cry if you don't learn well.

I don't know my daughter, my son must be laughing more than crying, because in his previous life, my son was an important person in a secret department of the state. He traveled with more people to protect than his father, who became a general.

After being lazy on the kang for a while, I lay down enough, looked at the rain outside, sat up, and took out my and my mother-in-law's shirts and pants from the quilt behind me. As the old saying goes, one autumn rain and one cold, ten autumn rains have to wear cotton. But in the northernmost part of our northeast, we can wait for less than ten autumn rains every year, and we have already put on cotton clothes early. The winter of the 70s was much colder than the winter of the 2000s.

Mother-in-law's shirt and pants were placed next to her pillow, and she wore them on her body, and she walked around the ground, not to mention that she was quite comfortable and warm to wear.

When I brushed my teeth, I saw that the toothpaste had been deflated, and there was not much left, which I bought when I got married, and I paid attention to buying everything when I got married, and I bought two tubes of this toothpaste at that time. That tube has long been used up, this tube is also deflated, and it looks like I'm going to buy a new one again.

When I thought of buying something, I thought of buying some cotton. I made a cotton coat for my mother-in-law, and the two children also had to make a cotton jacket and cotton pants. Inside, I use the old thread clothes and pants worn at home, which are soft and comfortable, and if I go outside, I will buy a piece of dark blue "Diqingliang" cloth, which is strong and dirt-resistant, and the rest can be made into cotton uppers.

Totaling the things that the family needs to buy, after buying these, and then buying some oil and salt or something, the 200 yuan that the pillar sent back to the mail last time was almost spent.

Wait two more days for a market, then go to the market, buy all these things, let the second brother of the uncle's family drive the ox cart to pull me back.

After eating, after tidying up the house, there is nothing to do.

If it's a sunny day, you can still go in the yard and back garden, swaying to find some work to do, this rainy day can't go out, you can only look in the house to find something to do, so as to pass the time.

Because it was raining outside, my mother-in-law didn't go out to look at her baby today, so she sat on the kang and watched the two children play there, and when she saw the children kicking her legs and raising her arms, she laughed, as if she had seen something strange.

It took a long time for the people in the house to learn from outside the house, and then they took out the rags that they had cut last time, and spread them on the kang piece by piece, to see what each of them could be used for, and the largest piece was reserved for the pillar to make two pairs of uppers and soles. The ones that don't slip are my shoes and my mother-in-law's.

There are still a few small pieces left, I plan to make a pair of soft-soled shoes for each child, so that they will feel cold on the kang in winter, and now a pair of adult socks are not easy to buy, and there is no sock for children, otherwise buy them a pair of thick socks, and it will be fine to wear them.

Put away the adults, leaving the two children.

I haven't made shoes for many years, and my hands are a little raw.

Let's use the two children's practice to practice their hands first, anyway, it is also for the two children to wear on the kang.

If you don't do it well with the practice of adults, it will make people laugh when you wear it.

Pick two new ones and keep them for noodles, and use the rest to make soles.

After getting off the kang, I boiled a little boiling water and a bowl of paste.

The mille-feuille bottoms worn by adults are generally 12 layers in summer, 16 layers in winter, and four layers of soft soles worn by children.

Take out a piece of cloth and spread it flat on the kang. Smear the paste on it, pick up a piece and stick it together, this must be glued flat, if there are folds, it will be uncomfortable to wear on the feet, so two sheets are a layer, a total of eight pieces of cloth are glued, and four pieces of cloth are glued.

The freshly glued one should be placed on the kang head and wait for it to dry before it can be used.

When most of the time is dry, I compare it with the shape of the shoe, cut out the shape of the sole, and look good with a layer of white edge on the white cloth strip with "good ground".

If it is for adults to make shoes, it is necessary to make it denser, because it is worn by soft-soled children, so it is simple to take two stitches.

You can't do it right away, you have to press it there with something heavy, and when it's dry, it won't pull together and turn into strange shapes.

At this time, it is just used to make shoe uppers, so let the two of them be lazy men's mouths, that is, a pedal for the next generation, to make it bigger, at least let them go through this winter, and then sew a strip of cloth on the heel of the shoe, and tie a buckle on the neck of the foot and don't love it.

Two pairs of children's shoes were not finished until it was dark, and it seems that not making shoes over the years is to maintain their health.

Holding the finished shoes and comparing them with the child's feet, they are two fingers bigger, and the child will grow up fast and wait until the winter to wear them.
