Chapter 35: Comparison Tools
After sending Wang Yan away, Shen Zhengwen and his wife saw that there was no wind today and the sun was shining, so they came out to bask in the sun with Xiao Niannian.
Xiao Niannian is difficult to come out to bask in the sun, squinting her eyes and feeling the warm sun, it is really comfortable.
In seven days, she will be full moon.
The day of the full moon is exactly the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
Dad and Mom were discussing how to celebrate that day.
Not just for the New Year, but also for her full moon joy.
"Tomorrow morning, I'll go to the county seat." Shen Zhengwen hugged Xiao Niannian from Li Rulan's arms, and swayed while talking, with a satisfied smile on his face.
"We can now produce a lot of eggs every day in our chicken coop, I have saved dozens of them, tomorrow I will go and sell the eggs, buy some food and New Year's goods, and then buy some clothes and cotton for you and the children to make clothes."
"Well, you have to be careful on the road." Li Rulan instructed, "Don't buy too many things, just buy some necessary supplies, after all, everyone is having a hard time this year, if we are too public, it will definitely make people angry." ”
Shen Zhengwen put Xiao Niannian back in the cradle and nodded thoughtfully.
There are many refugees wandering outside the city who don't have enough to eat, and if he buys too many things, he will definitely attract attention, and he will have to think of a good way to do it when the time comes.
In the yard, Dango and Matsuko are playing a game of cat and mouse around the goats.
The plug quietly fed grass to the goats, and occasionally told his brothers to run slowly.
The injury on Huzi's buttocks healed quickly under Wang Yan's treatment, and now he can play on the ground.
At this time, he was rummaging around the vegetable patch in the yard with a hoe, trying to catch earthworms and feed the fish.
Although they had heard before, earthworms would burrow deep into the ground in winter for the winter, and they could not dig up.
But neither of them believed in the evil, and dug with a hoe.
Shen Zhengwen didn't stop him when he saw this, this land has been barren for a few days, and it is indeed time to loosen the soil.
Over the years, the Shen family's food has been greatly improved, and they either eat fish, chicken, or eggs every day.
Now in the entire Taoli Village, the food of no one is as good as his.
Seeing that several children with yellow faces and thin muscles were visibly fat, especially Li Rulan, her pale face was bloody, her cheeks were plump, and she looked even more handsome than when she was eighteen years old, Shen Zhengwen felt happy in his heart.
Tiezi and Huzi dug for a long time, turning over all the vegetable patches in the yard, and finally found nothing.
They angrily threw their hoes aside and stopped digging, shouting that they wanted to come and play with their sister.
Xiao Niannian was dizzy by her father, and finally lay back in the cradle, and saw a pair of little hands stretched out.
"Daddy, can I hug my sister?" Huzi looked at Xiao Niannian with anticipation on his face.
"No way!"
"Nope"
The two voices came out at the same time, and Shen Zhengwen and Li Rulan looked at each other and smiled.
"Huzi, you are still too young, my sister's weight now is not as good as when she was born, and now you can't hold it."
Although Xiao Niannian is not yet full-term, her body is already older than other full-moon children.
Yesterday, Shen Zhengwen weighed her on the scales and found that although she was only more than 20 days old, she already weighed thirteen pounds.
Coupled with the thick clothes worn in winter, Huzi is only six years old, and he is not tall because of long-term malnutrition, so it is really difficult to pick up Xiao Niannian.
Tiezi laughed: "Yes, Huzi, your little arms and legs are as thin as a monkey, how can you hold your sister, or I'll come!" ”
Tiezi is eight years old this year, and his body is much older than Huzi, so he stepped forward and hugged Xiao Niannian at once.
But when he picked it up, he found that this matter was not as easy as he imagined, and it was indeed a little difficult to hold his sister.
But he just joked that Huzi couldn't hold his sister, and wouldn't it be a shame to put his sister down immediately at this time.
So he had to work hard to support himself.
Xiao Niannian was shaking in Tiezi's arms, so frightened that she almost cried.
Come on, she's a living, cute and beautiful person, isn't it a tool for you two to compare?
Woo woo, it's not her fault that it's so heavy, wow, she also wants to eat less to lose weight, but you won't let it.
She is not yet a full moon, and her body is fragile, so it would be good if she fell and fell into some problems.
Fortunately, Shen Zhengwen saw the far-fetched strength of the iron, and hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Xiao Niannian into his arms.
Xiao Niannian was lying in her father's arms, and suddenly felt a sense of security, stretched out her little hand and grabbed Shen Zhengwen's clothes tightly and refused to let go.
It's terrible, she doesn't want to be a tool for her brothers anymore.
Huzi watched from the side, didn't hug his sister and didn't say anything, and was laughed at by his eldest brother.
Thinking about what happened to him yesterday, he was so angry that he flattened his mouth and cried sadly.
"Woo woo woo ......"
"Why are you still crying?" Li Rulan pulled Huzi into her arms and comforted, "Brother is just joking with you, don't cry anymore, okay?" ”
Tiezi scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Huzi, don't cry, I didn't mean to laugh at you, I was wrong, I won't laugh at you in the future, okay?" ”
Seeing that Huzi was crying, the bolt and the dumpling Yuanzi stopped playing and came over to comfort Huzi.
But the more comforted, the more sad Huzi cried.
Or Shen Zhengwen smelled a trace of unusual breath, Huzi is not a crying child, usually even if he is wronged, his brother will be fine after coaxing for a while, and he has never cried like now.
He put Xiao Niannian back in the cradle, and Xiao Niannian also sensibly let go of his hand and let his father comfort the third brother.
Shen Zhengwen squatted down in front of Huzi and asked, "Huzi, you tell your father, is there someone bullying you outside?" ”
Huzi just cried and didn't speak.
Tuanzi suddenly remembered something, nodded violently and replied for Huzi: "Yes! It's just that someone is bullying my brother!
"Is someone really bullying you?" Shen Zhengwen frowned and looked at Huzi, "Huzi, you tell your father honestly, what's going on?" If they're wrong, Dad will take you to the door to seek justice! ”
"It's all big cows, and big cows go around telling people that my sister knows evil arts, and that people who get close to us will become unlucky." Huzi couldn't hold back any longer, wiped his tears and said, "I want to find wood to play, but the wood also believes Da Niu's words and ignores me." As soon as I went to them, they stoned me and did not let me come near. ”
Huzi lay in bed for several days because of his injury, and finally he was able to go out, so he rushed to find the big cow to play with them.
What he didn't expect was that his former friends now avoided him like snakes and scorpions, and they all refused to play with him.
"And me!" Yuanzi also said aggrievedly, "I went to play with Sister Ah Hua yesterday, and Sister Ah Hua ignored me." ”
