Xiao Baozi half-squatted on the big kang and insisted on the horse step for half an hour, Li Yunbao let him rest, and she was ready to let the child take his time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
When she heard that her mother let her rest, Brother An felt that her legs were as soft as noodles, and she was sore and a little shivering.
The little guy couldn't get up as soon as he sat on the kang with his buttocks, and Li Yunbao hurriedly said to the child: "An'er, hold on and walk a few laps again, otherwise your little feet will cramp, good!"
Little bun wrinkled his little face. still insisted on getting up and then walking back and forth on the kang, at this time Dongshan and Beishan came over on time, and brought the pen, ink, paper and inkstone that Sister-in-law Xie bought for them.
A few days ago, the two brothers still practiced words with a simple sand table, or Shen Xingnan said, if you just want to simply recognize a few words The requirements are not high, this sand table practice is enough, but if you want the child to write well, this is written on the sand with branches, and the feeling of writing on the paper is not the same.
After the sister-in-law found out, she hurriedly went to the town to buy pen and ink, in order to let the child learn, the Xie family and his wife also gritted their teeth and tried their best to provide it.
"Hello Aunt Bao." As soon as the two brothers came in, they greeted each other in unison.
"Well, you should hurry up and sit on the kang, and we'll start the class right away."
Li Yunbao motioned to Brother An, who was still walking around on the kang, to stop, then went to the kitchen and wrung a handkerchief to wipe his son, and after putting the handkerchief away, he came in and began to teach the four children.
When it was almost noon, the two children of Dongshan and Beishan packed up their belongings and went home, while Li Yunbao asked Brother An and Xing'er to practice calligraphy for a while, and he got up to prepare some simple lunch.
At noon, the men were not at home, and Li Yunbao and his two children simply made some food every day, thinking that they would only eat gnocchi in the morning, and they would make noodles at noon.
However, if you have the opportunity in the future, when the weather is good, you will still make some noodles and prepare them, and when you want to eat, you can make some simple and trouble-free, otherwise it will be very troublesome to eat noodles and noodles every time.
As for how to make noodles, this is thanks to a modern food show, because she suffered a lot when she was a child, and she couldn't eat and was hungry for too much time, so naturally she became a big foodie.
Seeing so many delicacies in the show, she was very excited to learn and practice, and then needless to say, she also created her own good cooking skills.
These miscellaneous foods are basically not difficult for Li Yunbao, of course, it is also necessary to have materials.
While thinking about it, I made the noodles for later use, then beat the eggs, soaked some fungus, and dried mushrooms to stir-fry the toppings together, and then hurriedly made the noodles to be eaten at noon.
When the three of them started to have lunch, Xiao Baozi was very happy, and he was picking up the noodles with chopsticks and putting them in his mouth, when suddenly he made a 'hiss, hiss' pumping sound.
"Mother, my mouth hurts!" The little guy was aggrieved and began to be coquettish with Li Yunbao.
"Well, An'er opened her mouth to show her mother." Li Yunbao comforted the little guy and asked him to open his mouth to see what was going on.
'Ah......' Brother An honestly opened his mouth wide, so that Li Yunbao could check it.
Li Yunbao held the chin of the little bun with his right hand, looked down at the child's mouth carefully, and finally found that the little guy had mouth ulcers.
"It's okay, An'er, this is a mouth ulcer, it means that you are on fire, you don't do it when your mother asks you to drink water on weekdays, now you know it's uncomfortable, you have to drink water every day in the future."
Although she educates her children like this, she herself knows that it is easy to get angry and ulcers in this winter, and the food she eats now is still cabbage radish in addition to cabbage radish.
Children are picky eaters, and they definitely don't like to eat cabbage and radish every day. As a result, it is better now, I don't supplement enough vitamins, and I don't like to drink water, so it's strange that the ulcer is not on fire, and if it's serious, I will be constipated.
So it's imperative to think of ideas to solve this problem. Coaxed the child to eat the small bowl of noodles slowly, and Li Yunbao also had an idea in his heart at this time.
After cleaning up the neat dishes and chopsticks at home, Li Yunbao asked Xing'er to take An Ge'er to play at home, and she went to the opposite side to find Sister-in-law Xie to help.
When they came to Sister-in-law Xie's house, they were having lunch, and Li Yunbao didn't talk nonsense and directly expressed his intentions.
"Sister-in-law, do you know that there can be a stonemason around here, I want to order a small stone mill, and grind some soy milk for the child to drink on weekdays, the child doesn't like to drink water."
"Hey, I said sister, you are also spoiled by children, if you don't like to drink water, you don't drink water, and you also bought a stone mill for grinding soy milk to drink, it's really a waste of money...... You see, these two boys in my family don't like to drink water, and they have grown up like this, if he is really thirsty, he will naturally drink water. ”
"Hehe, sister-in-law, this stone mill can not only grind soy milk on weekdays, but I can also make tofu and tofu brain, and it's okay to be idle in this winter, I can also improve the food for my family by making some fresh food."
Li Yunbao is a calf protector, but she can't hear others say that her brother An'er, as long as it is not a major mistake of principle, Li Yunbao is generally very used to children.
Besides, isn't it just drinking soy milk, which child's material conditions in modern times are not stronger than the current Ange'er, eating, drinking, wearing, which parent doesn't try his best to satisfy his children?
Not to mention the modern age, it is her brother An'er, when she was in the Guogong Mansion before, the food and clothing were all exquisite!
Now that she is the mother of Xiao Baozi, although she can't give Xiao Baozi the same wealth and enjoyment as she used to in the Guogong Mansion, at least she must do her best to raise him!
Sister-in-law Xie saw that the baby girl didn't buy a stone mill and didn't give up, so she didn't persuade her to say anything, but she was still worried in her heart, this baby girl wouldn't be too good at wasting money.
"That's it, there are stonemasons in Xiaowang Village, which is the village where Wang Xiaoqi's wife is in the past. I'm fine right now anyway, you wait for me to lock the door, and I'll take you. ”
Even if she no longer agrees with this treasure girl spending money and getting used to children, Sister-in-law Xie still enthusiastically led Li Yunbao to Xiaowang Village.
When I arrived at Xiaowang Village and came to the stonemason's house, Li Yunbao also came in a hurry, this stonemason's family made a lot of small stone mills of different sizes years ago, and was ready to make a fortune, but it was not sold out a year ago, and now there are still a lot left.
Li Yunbao picked through these surplus goods, and finally selected a small stone mill about 30 centimeters wide.
After Sister-in-law Xie helped her bargain with the stonemason, it was finally sold for 60 yuan, and Sister-in-law Xie had to add a rattan frame to the family, saying that it was good to install stone grinding.
Don't underestimate any woman who lives at home, they are all capable people, no worse than yourself, a modern bargaining maniac.
Li Yunbao carried the stone mill on his back, and when he returned home with great interest, he cleaned it and then carefully installed it on the lower level of the cabinets in the kitchen.
She plans to soak some beans tonight, and grind soy milk and make tofu brain early tomorrow morning.
In fact, a happy little life is not to be rich and expensive, as long as there are relatives around, in this unpolluted green mountains and green waters, it is also very happy to live the days when you plough the fields and come to me to weave.
It's no wonder that modern beauties are envious, fantasizing about crossing and farming, and now they also like this kind of plain and quiet life, of course, provided that there is no war!
