Zhang Zhishu said to the educated youths very seriously: "You can't do things with a heart, you have to choose the direction of progress, but on the way forward, you will always encounter many obstacles, just like these cotton forks, you must decisively remove them one by one." ”

As he spoke, he broke off the extra leaves in the armpits of the branches and armpits of one cotton tree after another, and the extra branches and forks that had grown.

"You see, there is only one important goal left, be aggressive, and work hard."

The educated youths looked at Zhang Zhishu seriously, and he skillfully removed the extra forks one by one.

……

In the snap of a finger, Wen Jie, the youngest daughter of Zhang Zhishu's family, it was time for her to wean.

Mother fed her millet porridge, she vomited straight out, and the ghost cried wolf: "Mom feeds me milk, feeds me milk......"

She kept crying and repeating the phrase.

Mom, she was in a hurry to report to the production team in advance, but she couldn't help but be anxious when she saw her little daughter's pleading eyes looking at her crying pitiful appearance.

She was going to criticize her little daughter.

This is the husband coming in the door.

Li Yue'e said to her husband who came back from the field to eat: "Look at Wen Jie crying and shouting for milk

Water, it's really urgent.

Dad, you wash your hands first, and I'll heat it for you, so I'll bring it to you. ”

Wen Jie looked at his father with begging eyes and shouted to his father, "Dad, I want milk, I want milk." She giggled angrily and told her father.

The father walked up to his little daughter and said, "Daddy will make you some lotus root flour to eat?" ”

She writhed while crying and said, "No, I want to eat my mother's milk!" ”

Li Yue'e first brought in a large pot of millet porridge, and then went to the kitchen to bring a yellow bun and a bowl of purslane wild vegetables and put them on the table. ”

Zhang Guangming hurriedly said, "Wen Yaniang, you can't feed her milk."

Wen Jie is more than a year old, are you still reluctant to wean her?

If you go to work in the field of the production team, you must remember to explain to Wen Hui, and when your sister is hungry, she will make lotus root powder to drink. ”

Wen Jie cried and said, I don't drink lotus root powder, I don't drink lotus root powder!

Li Yue'e, she looked at her little daughter's pitiful appearance, and she was very distressed.

What can I do?

Zhang Guangming pondered for a while and said, "I think let the two of them play with that group of chickens, that group of ducklings, and that group of geese."

Our team is an advanced production team.

You are a member of the Communist Party and a model worker, but you can't hold back the members. ”

Li Yue'e said: Wen Ya Dad, you are right, I am a member of the Communist Party, and I must not hold back, so I have to make up my mind to wean Wen Jie. ”

Zhang Guangming asked his beloved wife to leave Wen Jie's sight.

Li Yue'e hurried to the yard to feed the chickens, ducks and geese, as well as other domestic animals to graze.

Wen Jie looked at his mother's milk, and it seemed that there was no hope.

She babbled and cried while holding a small porcelain bowl in both hands and reluctantly drinking millet porridge.

Zhang Guangming said gently: Come and eat an egg, Dad will add some more food to you, you can't just drink rice soup.

After she had eaten, the second sister Wen Hui took her out and asked her to look at the flocks of chickens, ducks and geese in the yard, and she really didn't cry.

At this time, Li Yue'e heard the bell ringing.

She immediately took advantage of the two children's intently watching the small flocks of chickens, ducks, and geese, and she quietly walked to the gate.

Xiao Wenjie looked up suddenly, and just saw the figure of his mother closing the door, which made Wenjie stumble towards the gate in a hurry, crying at the same time, she had to follow her mother.

Wen Hui immediately chased after her, holding her sister who was kicking and kicking indiscriminately.

The mother turned around and glanced at her youngest daughter Wenjie through the crack in the door, turned her head ruthlessly and walked quickly on the road.

Wen Jie's crying was even more heartbreaking, which really made her mother feel uncomfortable!

When I came back at noon, I heard another ghost crying wolf......

Zhang Guangming persuaded his wife, who was making lunch, and said: "As long as the child is breastfeeding, there is crying when the child is weaned.

You have to make up your mind to wean her.

You wean Wen Jie, that's good for her, she only feeds milk every day, doesn't eat, and the nutrition of this milk is far from enough for her growth needs! ”

Wen Hui hugged her sister who was kicking and kicking, and coaxed her to say, "Our mother's milk is very spicy." ”

My sister, she cried and kicked the ground and said she didn't believe it.

The second daughter's words reminded Li Yue'e, and she hurriedly walked to the wall in the kitchen and dragged a cold dried red pepper, and picked up her clothes to wipe them all over.

So she went into the house and said to her little daughter, "If you don't believe it, eat it."

The youngest daughter withdrew the second sister's hand, threw herself into her mother's arms like crazy, lifted her mother's diagonal blouse and breastfeed.

But as soon as her little mouth choked her mother's **, she hurriedly threw it away.

She opened her mouth and stomped her feet and cried.

Zhang Guangming was eating, and when he heard his little daughter crying so much, he hurriedly put down his rice bowl, went to the sugar jar on the table in the inner room and pinched a little sugar, and quickly came to the living room to coax his little daughter and said, "Come and ask Dad to give you a little sugar noodles, are you sweet after eating?" ”

Wen Jie chewed the sugar, maybe it wasn't so spicy, and the crying gradually stopped.

She was still giggling with anger.

"Let Dad see if my little obedient eyes are swollen from crying?"

Zhang Guangming picked up his little daughter and said amiably, "I'll show you the little watermelons in our yard."

Little pumpkin and little winter melon, look at that cute, isn't it? ”

Wen Jie cried heartbreakingly just now, which really made his father feel very distressed.

Zhang Guangming asked his little daughter to look at the small round watermelons the size of peanuts and peans with cyan patterns, and pointed to the slender green pumpkins and the small donggues with white burrs and said, "Isn't it cute?" ”

Wen Hui clapped her little hands and said: Wen Jie, look at how cute you are!

Wen Jie gradually stopped the chattering.

In a few moments she was tired, hung her head and squeezed her eyes, and fell asleep.

Zhang Guangming put his little daughter in the stroller. He told his second daughter not to be playful, and to take care of her little sister at home.

Li Yue'e hid aside and thought: Then if she is allowed to feed again, then she will not want to eat, and the nutrition will definitely not be enough for her growth needs.

So she made up her mind that she had to wean her little daughter.

Since Wenjie was weaned, she was hungry and began to eat in large gulps.

Within a few days, she became a chubby child.

The family saw Wen Jie staggering with a stroller, she walked for a while, and gradually her steps became much more stable.

Her parents began to encourage Wen Jie to take her hands off the stroller and learn to walk, but at first, she was still a little stumbling and always wrestling.

Once she fell, she crawled on the ground and cried, and her sisters were very distressed when they heard it, so they ran over to hug her.

But Mom and Dad didn't let them coax Wenjie, Dad said that he wanted to train her, so that she would have a strong character.

After some time, even if Wen Jie fell again, sure enough, she no longer relied on the help of her brother and two sisters, and when she fell, she got up again and continued to learn to walk.

After a few more days, Wen Jie was finally able to run and play in the yard by himself, and he no longer wrestled.

Wen Ya and Wen Jun still carry a small basket every day and go outside the village to pick grass, collect firewood, and collect medicinal herbs......

They locked Wen Hui and Wen Jie in the yard, Wen Jie felt very lonely and bored and scared at first, and Wen Jie cried and made a restless dog.

Wen Hui was helpless, and when she heard the cooing of the hens, she pointed to the group of chicks and said to her sister: "Don't cry Wen Jie, you can see how fun it is to have these good friends with us together!" ”

Li Yue'e enclosed the ducklings and geese, the lamb and the piglets, fearing that they would hurt the two young children.

She left only a flock of ducklings to run around the yard and forage for food.

Wen Hui often picked up a small kitchen knife, and when Dangdang cut wild vegetables for the ducklings, and asked her sister to sprinkle them for the ducklings to eat with her little hands.

She often grinds her tender little hands into bubbles, and she just blows with her little lips and doesn't cry out in pain.

Wherever Wen Jie went, the duckling shook his cute body. Wherever he followed her heels, he quacked around her little feet.

The ducklings run very interestingly, "da-da-da" run a few steps.

Sometimes when I see something to eat, I will come to "stand", and then bow my head and "peck a few times" on the ground.

It has a long, small mouth that makes a clicking sound when eating.

On both sides of the flat mouth, there are small round eyes as bright as black gems, looking east and west.

In fact, it can't see the road ahead, so the duckling's head will keep swinging from side to side, or observing the road ahead, or looking for food on the ground.

Wen Jie thinks it's so interesting!

The mother was afraid that she had had enough of playing with the ducklings, so she changed to a flock of geese.

The geese grew very quickly, and after a few days, little wings grew on each goose.

Xiao Wenjie held a handful of tender grass in his little hand and teased the little geese.

The geese raised their heads and stretched their necks to try to eat the grass in her hands, and they were about to eat it, but she raised her little hands sharply, and the geese surrounded her and shouted, "Hungry, hungry, hungry."

Wen Jie lowered the grass a little, and the geese spread their wings and stretched their necks to eat again, and she raised her little hand again.

The little geese stared at the grass in her hand and screamed "hungry".

Wen Jie clapped his little hands and said, "Come on!" Come on! The geese seemed to understand the little girl's encouragement, so they spread their short wings, and they would stretch their necks to peck while calling, even if they were about to fly, they still couldn't reach them.

As if she was distressed about the child, the mother goose came over hungry and was about to nag her little feet.

She hurriedly dropped the grass and said, "Give your child something to eat?" Don't talk about my little feet. ”

A few little geese chirped, and Wen Jie hurriedly fed the ducklings to eat grass.

The ducklings fluttered their wings and quacked happily, scrambling to eat the tender grass with their flat beaks.

The mother chicken cooed, and she sprinkled a handful of grass in the hen pen, and a flock of old hens cooed for her children to eat.

Chicks with yellow feathers, chicks with brown feathers, and chicks with white feathers, rolled over like balls, and ate the ground with their little mouths.

As time passed, the geese's wings became bigger and bigger, and they began to practice climbing, at first they could only go up the stairs, and gradually they were able to follow Wenjie to the house.

When the geese grow up, they lay oval-shaped, snow-white eggs.

"The geese hatch flocks of children." The ducklings and chicks grew up like the goslings.

The yard was very lively all day long, "quack, chirp, goose goose" and the piglet born by the mother pig "uh-huh", and the lamb born by the mother sheep "blea".

Only the mother donkey gave birth to a small mule that was different from her mother, and the "boom" was the loudest.

These cries accompanied Wen Jie as he grew up.

Wen Jie and Wen Hui also understood, their rapid and continuous cries were the sounds of shouting hunger, revealing an expression of anticipation; The cry when you are in good spirits is a happy and happy song; When I was hungry, I couldn't see the figure dragging on the long sound, and the lazy cry was the voice of sorrowful complaints.

The cry of eagerness and urgency is the cry of a marriage proposal.

The language of these animals is the experience that they have summed up for a long time.

Wenjie feeds them every day, and after a long time, he has become good friends with them, so he doesn't feel lonely but finds it very interesting.

This morning, as soon as the chick saw Wen Jie's figure, she chirped, and the mother chicken ran to her and "cooed", which was a code word for hunger.

She hurriedly grabbed the young grass chopped by the second sister and fed it to the chickens.

This is how Wen Jie uses them as playmates, and she is immersed in childlike fun.
