Wang Guoqiang bought a bunch of things at the vegetable market, including pork, eggs, potatoes, and tomatoes. I went to the decoration market and bought ten generations of white cement and latex materials.

"Dad, did you buy pork?" Wang Feng saw that his father had bought a lot of food, and jumped happily.

Wang Guoqiang sighed in his heart that a child is a child, no matter how sentimental it is, it will be forgotten after a while.

"Brother, come out and see, Dad is back from buying meat"

After all, Wang Long was older, and when he saw the pork in his father's hand, he just swallowed his saliva secretly, not as happy as his sister. Wang Guoqiang plans to make braised pork for the children to eat. Then steam an egg and stir-fry a cabbage and garlic sprouts.

Wang Guoqiang went to the kitchen, first boiled the water in the pot, first put the pork belly into the boiling water, and put in the green onion, ginger, garlic, star anise, and cinnamon. The meat is boiled until it is medium-rare, scooped up, soaked in cold water, and then cut into squares, and each piece of meat is cut to a general size.

Wang Long and Wang Feng were both in the kitchen watching their father make braised pork, "Brother, Dad is better than you can cook, you can only make noodles for me to eat" Wang Long watched Dad cook seriously, "Sister, I studied hard and learned how to cook for my brother"

After the pot is heated, Wang Guoqiang pours in the oil, puts in the rock sugar, slowly stir-fry the sugar color, adds the cut pork belly pieces, puts in the red pepper, starling, cinnamon, green onion, ginger, stir-fry carefully, put salt, soy sauce, monosodium glutamate, cooking wine, add an appropriate amount of water, cover the pot and stew.

"Dad, it's so fragrant, okay?" Wang Feng sniffed the fragrance vigorously, and Wang Long secretly swallowed his saliva.

On the table in the hall is a bowl of red and bright braised pork, a bowl of steamed eggs, and a plate of fried garlic sprouts with cabbage.

Wang Guoqiang picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and shouted loudly in the direction of his father's old Wang Tou's house: "Dad, Mom's New Year, my son has made you braised pork, you two eat first"

After shouting, his eyes turned red again, he held back his tears, and said to the brother and sister, "Dad will take good care of you two in the future"

Wang Feng was extremely happy when he heard it, bared his teeth and shouted sweetly: "I like Dad the most, Dad will cook meat for me at home every day in the future."

"Eat! Eat! The two children were like hungry tigers pounced on sheep, and they picked up the braised pork and ate it with oil in their mouths.

"Brother, if only you could eat meat every day," Wang Feng hiccuped happily.

Wang Long was older after all, and he asked: "Dad, where did the money come from, isn't our family out of money?" ”

"Son, this money is Uncle Niu's salary to his father, from tomorrow, Dad will go to raise ducks for Uncle Niu" Wang Guoqiang proudly told his son that Niu Xiaotian had already paid him two months' salary, and the living expenses for half a year were available.

"Dad, how did you pay back the money you owed?" Wang Long asked worriedly.

"Slowly find a way to pay it back, why do you have so much heart for a child!" Wang Long bowed his head and was silent, the last time his father signed a contract with someone, he heard it very clearly, his father used the house as a mortgage, and the money owed was paid off in six years. He secretly thought to himself, Dad is so unreliable, if he can't pay it back, will they not even have a place to live. He really wants to grow up and earn money immediately.

After Wang Guoqiang finished eating, he lay on the bed alone, and one by one the pictures were released in his mind, after the business failed, he begged his daughter-in-law to take care of the children at home, but the daughter-in-law ran away with someone. The neighbors saw him like flies, and when the father was dying, he was not at ease with his child and looked at him with resentment.

The middle-aged woman's ridicule and curse to him, one by one, made him feel that he was not as good as the maggots in the toilet, he could no longer live in a mess, he had to work hard, struggle, earn money, and let everyone who looked down on him know that he was not a maggot, he was a person, an upright man.

Wang Guoqiang made up his mind that he must be down-to-earth and be a new person, for himself and for his children.

Early the next morning, Wang Guoqiang walked through the fog and came to Niu Xiaotian's house, "Xiaotian, it's me, I'm here"

"Brother Wang, you are too positive" Niu Xiaotian opened the door with sleepy eyes.

"The ducks are still sleeping," Niu Xiaotian jokingly said to Wang Guoqiang. He asked Wang Guoqiang to wait for him, and after washing B, he took Wang Guoqiang to the duck breeding base.

"Brother Wang, this is my own orchard, which is full of mulberry trees," Niu Xiaotian introduced to him as he walked, there is a relatively large fish pond around the mulberry orchard, and now the orchard is divided into ten areas to stock ducks. Generally, there are about 400 ducks stocked in one area, "There are a lot of weeds in this garden, why don't you weed?" asked Niu Xiaotian strangely.

"Brother Wang, this is ecological breeding, ducks can eat grass and insects, and the dung pulled by ducks can raise trees" Wang Guoqiang nodded and said, "Kill two birds with one stone"

Wang Guoqiang pointed to a rectangular sink at the water pipe: "Is this for ducks to drink?" ”

"Yes, to ensure that the drinking water is clean, it is usually enough to change it once a day," Niu Xiaotian replied.

On the right side of the orchard is the duck house, every night the division rushes back to the duck house, Niu Xiaotian points to a big and fat duck and says: "This is just a duck, each flock has a duck"

"I didn't expect that there is so much knowledge in raising ducks," Wang said.

"Haha, it's hard to say, it's easy to say, it's easy to raise for a while, Brother Wang, you help me raise it for a while, and in the spring, it should be too, just take a thousand duck seedlings at my base, and then discuss with the village chief to charter a vacant land, and after a year, the ducks can be exchanged for money, and then plant some fruit trees, mulberries, which are easy to sell, more than a dozen yuan a catty"

Wang Guoqiang said repeatedly: "Brother, thank you"

Niu Xiaotian smiled, part of the reason why he helped Wang Guoqiang was for Haishan, he could see that Haishan took pity on the two children and wanted to help him.

"Brother Wang, don't say kind words, I've worked hard for you this time."

After Niu Xiaotian explained everything, he sent a WeChat message to Haishan: "Haishan, Wang Guoqiang is now helping to raise ducks in my duck farm"

Haishan was writing medical records, and when she heard a WeChat message, she opened it and saw that it was a message from Niu Xiaotian, and she replied: "How are the two children?"

Another message came over on WeChat: "With their fathers at home, what are you anxious about, the two children are very happy"

Hai Shan felt strange, she should have completed the task, why the system did not echo.

Haishan replied with a message: "Got it, Brother Tian, I'll go back when I'm free to see the two children."

Wang Guoqiang diligently changed the drinking water for the ducks, cleaned the duck house, checked whether the nylon nets in each district were damaged, fed the ducks, and drove the ducks back to the duck house in the evening.

On the country road at night, the lights of the houses in the distance are on, and he walks briskly, home is always the warmest and best place.

Wang Long had already cooked the meal, stewed it in a pot and heated it, and waited for his father to come home to eat.

"Brother, dad is back" As soon as Wang Feng heard the bolt of the door, he pounced on Wang Guoqiang like a puppy, and Wang Guoqiang picked up Wang Feng.

On the table there are steaming blunt vermicelli of pork belly with cabbage inside. The sensible Wang Long has already placed all the dishes and chopsticks.

"Dad, wash your hands, eat" Wang Guoqiang went to the yard in a hurry, and thought while washing his hands, he was all the coolie money he earned, and he must let the children study more in the future.

"Wang Long, Wang Feng has time to read more books, Dad's hope is the two of you," Wang Guoqiang said while eating.

Wang Feng said goodbye to it, Wang Long was silently picking up the meal, he had his own ideas, he wanted to earn money after the New Year, he didn't want to go to school, anyway, his grades were poor, and the teacher didn't like him, he would be 12 years old after the New Year, and he was also an adult.

Wang Guoqiang, who got up at half past four the next day, felt full of strength, and planned to paint the wall, New Year's New Year, and spend a few hundred yuan to make the children more comfortable. As soon as he said it, he took out his shovel.

He first used a shovel blade to shovel the loose cement layer on the wall, the loose cement layer soon fell down the shovel, he sped up, after a while, there were a lot of cement blocks on the ground, only heard the sound of the shovel, he concentrated on shoveling the wall, suddenly encountered a hard cement block, Wang Guoqiang shoveled the shovel into the mud, exerted all his strength, suddenly the shovel broke, Wang Guoqiang couldn't retract for a while, three fingers were scratched by the broken surface of the shovel, blood gushed outward, the shovel fell to the ground, and there was a clang, At the same time, Wang Guoqiang's scream "Ah, it hurts"

Wang Long, who was sleeping, heard a scream, quickly got up, and saw his father covering his fingers, blood flowing down his hands, and there was already a small pool after a while.

"Dad, don't move, I'll go find Uncle Niu to help" The panicked Wang Long put on his clothes and rushed away.

"Uncle Niu, Uncle Niu, save my dad" Wang Long stood outside Niu Xiaotian's house and shouted desperately.

Niu Xiaotian was sleeping in a daze, when he heard someone shouting at him, he listened carefully, it seemed to be Wang Long's child's voice, he hurriedly put on his clothes and went to open the door.

"Uncle, come with me, my dad has a hand injury, and he is bleeding" Wang Long said anxiously.

Niu Xiaotian quickly put on his clothes and pulled his shoes on, "Don't worry, don't worry, let's go and see together, it's early in the morning, it's not even five o'clock, why did your dad hurt his hand?"

"I don't know very well, but I saw that my father's hand was injured, and there was blood on the ground," Wang Long told Niu Xiaotian.

Niu Xiaotian and Wang Long ran to Wang Long's house together, Wang Feng was holding a towel, and her father was about to wrap it with tears in her eyes, and when she saw her brother and Uncle Niu coming back together, it was like seeing a savior. "Uncle, do you think this is okay?"

"Is this towel clean?" Niu Xiaotian was afraid when he saw Wang Guoqiang's hand, the skin turned over the flesh, and the blood was bubbling.

"It's a clean towel," Wang Feng replied.

"Hurry up and wrap it up for his dad, this injury is not light, we only have the hospital in the market, well, I'll go to drive, let's find Dr. Li, Wang Long, quickly bring your dad daily necessities, ID card, medical insurance card, I'll drive." Hurry up."

Niu Xiaotian ran all the way, to drive his car, and complained about Wang Guoqiang while running wildly, early in the morning, what kind of wall is it cold and dark, since his wife and people ran away, he is a little stupid.
