If the elderly's teeth are more rotten, then the doctor will recommend that the remaining teeth be extracted and fitted with full dentures.

These dentures are placed directly on the gums in two parts, so if you don't look closely, you won't notice that you're wearing dentures.

Except for hard things, you can't eat any other food.

Compared to patients who have to wear removable dentures, Grandma Xi's situation is much better, her teeth are not diseased, but she simply lost one tooth, so she only needs to fill one tooth.

Originally, Grandma Xi was a little afraid and timid about filling teeth. But now when I see other people's rotten teeth, they need to be all extracted, and then wear dentures, so in comparison, Grandma Xi feels that her situation is not serious.

When it was Grandma's turn to see a doctor, the doctor asked them directly what grade of dentures they wanted.

Grandma Xi wanted to choose the cheapest, but Gao Mingcheng and Gao Zhuang didn't agree, they both wanted to give Grandma the best, and finally Grandma Xi compromised and chose a medium-priced tooth, but just such a denture also costs sixteen yuan.

Grandma Xi was a little distressed about the money, but Gao Mingcheng thought that the money was worth it, and after the filling, not only the teeth were neat and beautiful, but it was also much more convenient to eat, and it was not easy to stuff the teeth.

Grandma is over 70 years old, so she should do whatever she wants, and eat whatever she wants.

It took half an hour for Grandma Xi's tooth to be repaired, and after thanking the doctor, the three of them left the hospital.

There was an extra tooth in her mouth, and Grandma was a little uncomfortable at first, so she always used her tongue to push it, thinking it was a foreign body.

But as soon as I topped it, I remembered the doctor's instructions, so I didn't dare to use my tongue to push it.

When she returned to the clothing store, Xiao Yuanyuan rushed towards her, and called the old grandmother in a milky voice, she didn't have the heart to pay attention to the teeth in her mouth, and talked to Xiao Yuanyuan and them with a smile.

There was still a little time before lunch, so Gao Mingcheng asked Grandma if they wanted to go out for a walk.

But Grandma Xi said that she didn't want to go shopping, the weather was a little cold, she didn't want to move, so she stayed in the clothing store and talked to many beautiful women, and she was quite happy.

But Gao Zhuang wanted to go shopping, because he wanted to take the opportunity to buy something that he didn't have at home.

Although Junling has an old market and a cooperative, it is a rural area after all, and many things are not available, and they are only sold in the county.

For example, pastries and candies are only sold in cooperatives, and if you want to buy more expensive ones, there is no place to spend the money.

So Gao Mingcheng carried a vegetable basket and took Gao Zhuang out to buy something.

Next, he planned to go back to the village to dig kudzu, so he also had to buy some food in advance, such as bread, chicken cakes, French cakes, etc., when he walked all the way, he saw someone selling rice cakes, so Gao Mingcheng and Gao Zhuang each bought some rice cakes and went back to eat.

There are rice cakes all over the country, but the rice cakes in each place are a little different. The rice cakes they have here are similar to the Yiyang rice cakes, but the rice cakes made in Yiyang have a better and stronger taste.

Because the rice produced in Yiyang is relatively unique, and the process of 'three steaming and two hundred hammers' is also more complicated, the local rice cakes on their side have a worse taste than Yiyang rice cakes.

In later generations, when the transportation was developed, there were also Yiyang rice cakes sold here, but unfortunately there were no foreign products here, all of them were produced locally.

However, Gao Mingcheng didn't dislike it, he deliberately bought more, some of which were left here for many beauties to eat, and some of which were brought to the village.

This rice cake is in the shape of a long strip, and after slicing, it can be boiled, fried, and fried, and it is convenient to make various methods.

In addition to rice cakes, Gao Mingcheng bought some dried noodles.

Their somen noodles are handmade, with a lot of salt added to them, and the noodles are pulled very thinly, so when the noodles are cooked, they are easy to cook, and they need to put more water, less salt or no salt.

These noodles are said to be very milky, so if you have a pregnant woman, your relatives will buy some somen noodles and send them to you.

After shopping on the street, the vegetable basket in Gao Mingcheng's hand was full of things.

"Gao Zhuang, have you bought all the things?" Gao Mingcheng looked sideways at Gao Zhuang and asked.

Gao Zhuang was holding two bottles of alabaster and a few clam oils in his hands, and said with a smile: "I bought it, it's cold this winter, and my skin is very dry, I'll buy more alabaster and clam oil for Xiuman." ”

This alabaster is for wiping the face, and the clam oil is for wiping the hands, both of which are used in winter.

After buying all their things, the two went back to the clothing store.

In the front store, many beautiful women are entertaining customers, and in the backyard, the fine grandmother is leading two children and is talking about the ancients.

Xiao Yuanyuan is more than two years old and can understand a little, Xiao Xuxu has just turned one year old, and he can't understand at all, but he also sits on the stool honestly and listens to Grandma Xi.

Grandma Xi told the story of the tiger coming down the mountain in the past, when it was the autumn harvest, the rice in the village had just been harvested, spread in the barn to dry, at that time it was still collective production, some people went to work in the field, someone was responsible for guarding the rice in the barn, and needed tools to turn the rice and drive away the sparrows.

That afternoon, the man in charge of turning the rice was spreading the kernels with a grain rake, when a tiger quietly came down from the mountain......

When Grandma Xiao told the ancients, the story atmosphere was very good, but unfortunately Xiao Yuanyuan's words dried up the story atmosphere!

"Grandma, what is a tiger? Is it tasty? ”

Is it delicious? made Gao Mingcheng laugh.

This question is really difficult to answer, Gao Mingcheng has never eaten tiger meat in his two lives.

Grandma Xi was also obviously stunned, and then said: "I don't know if it's delicious or not, that tiger was finally driven into the mountains, and I never saw it again." ”

Grandma Xi obviously didn't think this story was good, so she changed to what they used to do, such as earning work as follows, rubbing hemp rope at home, and so on.

But these stories obviously can't attract children, Xiao Yuanyuan began to look around, and Xiao Xuxu simply stretched out his hand to Gao Mingcheng and signaled to his father to hug him.

Gao Mingcheng picked up Xiao Xuxu, and then sat down, he looked at Grandma Xi and said, "Grandma Xi, you can tell us about the village before, I still want to hear it!" ”

Gao Mingcheng has not experienced this kind of thing listening to the old man talk about the ancients, even if he heard what Grandma Xi said, he has heard it, and now he finds it interesting to listen to it again.

So Grandma Xi continued to talk about the ancients, but the audience changed, from two ignorant little children to two adults, Gao Mingcheng and Gao Zhuang.

Gao Mingcheng listened with relish, remembering that when he came home from school in the past, because there was no entertainment, he often played around with his companions in the village.

In these ancient lectures, he learned a lot of things from the past, and also knew a lot of gossip, which enriched his knowledge of the world.

It wasn't until it was time for lunch that Grandma Xi's talk about the ancients ended.

Gao Mingcheng listened unsatisfactorily, and the memories of his childhood became clearer and clearer at this moment.

After lunch, Gao Mingcheng didn't delay much, and was ready to send Grandma Xi and Gao Zhuang's father and daughter back to the village.

Gao Mingcheng waved goodbye to many beauties and said, "I'll be back in a few days!" ”

"Well, things do slowly, don't rush!" Many beauties hugged Xiao Xuxu and gently admonished.

He also taught Xiao Xuxu to wave goodbye to Gao Mingcheng.

It's just that where do children know the word decency, seeing that Gao Mingcheng and Xiao Yuanyuan were leaving, Xiao Xuxu cried a lot, and opened his hand to Gao Mingcheng vigorously, signaling that he wanted to follow Gao Mingcheng together.

Seeing that he was really crying so much, Gao Mingcheng was a little reluctant, so he looked at Duo Mei and said, "Why don't you take Xiao Xuxu back to the village for two days?" ”

Duo Mei looked at the brand-new carport, didn't hesitate, and immediately said: "Okay, but wait, I want to take Xiao Xuxu's change of clothes and diapers." ”

If there is no carport that blocks the wind, then many beauties will hesitate, but after having a carport that blocks the wind, many beauties don't have to worry that Xiao Xuxu will blow the wind, so they don't even hesitate.

She handed Xiao Xuxu to Gao Mingcheng to hug, and she quickly packed up her things.

Although people live in the new home, there are also Xiao Xuxu's things here, and many beauties hurriedly packed a few changes of clothes, and brought all the diapers here, and finally brought the milk bottle and milk powder.

In this way, it is almost cleaned up.

As for adults, there is no need to clean up, because they only go back for a few days, and in winter, they take a shower once in three or four days, which can be regarded as loving clean.

"Shufang, I'll go back to the village with your second brother for a few days, and the store will trouble you." Before leaving, many beauties specially advised.

Gao Shufang stood at the door, watched them leave, and said with a smile: "Second brother, second sister-in-law, you can go at ease, there is me in the store." ”

After Gao Shufang's words, Gao Mingcheng and his wife left with peace of mind.

Today's Gao Shufang has already been trained, and they can indeed rest assured.

Along the way, Xiao Yuanyuan and Xiao Xuxu were very excited at first, but as the car swayed, people were a little out of spirit, and finally Xiao Xuxu fell asleep on many beautiful bodies.

Many beauties smiled helplessly and adjusted their posture to facilitate Xiao Xuxu to sleep more comfortably.

Xiao Yuanyuan over there also fell asleep, but he was held by Gao Zhuang.

At their feet, there are some things piled up, and in the small carport, everyone sits together, and they don't feel crowded, but feel warm.

After arriving all the way to Gaojia Village, the two children had not woken up, the car was parked at the pond in the old village, Gao Zhuang hugged Xiao Yuanyuan, and went home with Grandma Xi, and after they left, Gao Mingcheng continued to drive the car to Niuweiling.

Before they could stop, several of the family's dogs rushed towards this direction, wagging their tails enthusiastically.

"Black Tiger, Elf, Rhubarb!" Many beauties haven't been back for a while, and it's unusually happy to see the family dog.

It was even happier when I saw the two little black dumplings following behind Rhubarb.

"Mingcheng, have you chosen a name for those two puppies?" A lot of beauty asked.

Gao Mingcheng glanced at the little black dumpling and said, "I haven't chosen a name yet, you can choose a name!" ”

"Okay, but I'll have to think about it." Many beauties took over the task of choosing a name and began to think about it.

What's the name?

This names the dog, some of them look at the appearance of the dog, such as Xiao Hei and Rhubarb, and some of them have good wishes, such as Laifu and Wangwang.

Many beauties want to give the two puppies a good name, so they don't dare to choose it at will, of course, you can take your time to choose a name, and now the top priority is to carry Xiao Xuxu to the bed to sleep!

However, there has been no one living in the house for a while, so I have to make the bed first.

Fortunately, it is also easy to make the bed, just lift the old sheets that cover the bed and take out the quilt in the closet.

As soon as the child was put down, many Mei and Gao Mingcheng had to get busy, Gao Mingcheng was responsible for carrying water, and then sweeping the yard.

Many Mei took a rag and wiped down the tables, chairs, cabinets and other things at home, and then went to wash the stove.

Gao Mingcheng took out the things in the car and put them away, and then went to the field to get some vegetables back, today is in a hurry, I don't prepare to cook rice at night, just cook a pot of rice cakes to eat, put some vegetables and eggs in the rice cakes, and the taste is very good.

When the husband and wife were busy, Duoyu came over with a small stone, and it turned out that she heard that the fourth sister had come back with the child, so she came to walk around.

"Second sister! Little rock, why didn't you take a nap? Many Mei were also very happy to see their relatives, and they were about to go and get chicken cakes for Xiaoshi to eat.

A lot of Yu said: "He went to bed early and got up early, what about Xiao Xuxu?" Still sleeping? ”

Duomei said: "I'm still sleeping, but I'll wake him up later, otherwise I won't sleep at night." ”

The two sisters hadn't seen each other for a while, so they got together to talk.

Seeing this, Gao Mingcheng simply took advantage of the fact that there was still some sky and went into the mountains to find kudzu.

Yesterday the slopes were covered with light snow, but today it has almost melted.

Even if it doesn't melt, it doesn't matter, because the snow in the south is not like in the north, and it freezes the soil.

Gao Mingcheng wore old clothes, took a hoe and a bag, and went into the mountain.

When passing by the foot of the mountain and halfway up the mountain, Gao Mingcheng could see some soil holes from time to time, which were left by the villagers digging kudzu.

The longer the kudzu root, the thicker the underground rhizome part, and if you want to dig it out completely, you will dig a big hole, and most people will not deliberately fill the hole back with soil after taking the kudzu root.

Gao Mingcheng walked all the way, he had often entered the mountains before, and he already knew what treasures were in the mountains, so he went straight to a slope with a clear goal.

When he got there, he was relieved to find that everything was as natural as it could be, unspoiled.

He followed the kudzu vine, found the roots, first judged the growth of the rhizome, and then began to dig, the soil in the mountains is relatively hard, but after the snow melts, the soil is more slippery, Gao Mingcheng dug up, he felt that it was easier.

Every hoe he dug into the soil with precision, and did not hurt the rhizome of the kudzu.

When the whole rhizome is dug up, it resembles a thick tree root. This wild kudzu, also known as kudzu root, has varieties of kudzu in later generations, and the powder rate of kudzu will be higher.

They had yellow soil here, and when the kudzu was dug up, the skin was yellowish-brown and covered with fine yellow mud.

When it is washed, the color will be much lighter.

Gao Mingcheng weighed this kudzu, and estimated that it was about ten catties, presumably for twenty or thirty years.

It's winter, the vines have withered, and all the nutrients of the kudzu root are converted into starch and stored in the rhizome, waiting for the next spring, and then these nutrients will be consumed to grow new vines.

If you want to dig kudzu root to make flour, then you have to dig it in autumn and winter, when the starch content of the rhizome is high.

After Gao Mingcheng successfully harvested a kudzu root, he put it in a bag and continued to follow the hillside, he remembered the location of all the kudzu roots in the mountain, and now he only needed to dig them out one by one.

It's just the second place, but it was taken first.

It wasn't that the people in the village were the first to get there, but that they were eaten by the wild boars in the mountains!

Looking at the half of the kudzu still buried in the soil, Gao Mingcheng called it a waste, but he didn't pick it up, just put it like this, and when the wild boar was hungry, he could eat it again.

The wild boars eat well, and when he is free, he will come back to harvest!

Gao Mingcheng continued to walk forward, and the next luck was good, the position he marked was not damaged by the wild boar, so without saying a word, he picked up the hoe and worked!

Kudzu vines are very easy to grow, they can grow on mountain peaks, they can also grow in low ditches, even stone piles, in the spring, they grow fresh green leaves, in the summer purple flowers, pods.

Gao Mingcheng had been digging kudzu in the mountains intently, until it was completely dark, and he didn't call it a day.

At this time, the bag he brought was already full, and he carried the bag on his shoulder, held a hoe in one hand, and led the black tiger and the elf down the mountain.

The dog clings to the owner, and as soon as he comes back, the two dogs stick to him.

Gao Mingcheng is also willing to take the dog into the mountain, in case there is a wind and grass, and the dog will report the news.

As soon as he thought this, the black tiger seemed to have noticed something, and barked at a place, and soon, the elf also noticed something, and followed it and barked together, with the intention of driving away in the voice.

Gao Mingcheng followed the prestige and happened to see a weasel fleeing away quickly.

In winter, snakes and frogs in the mountains hibernate, but weasels do not hibernate and are still active.

In fact, there are not many weasels in Niuweiling, there are many weasels in Xiaoyuan Mountain, and there are many weasels in Tomb Mountain, so some weird stories have been derived. (End of chapter)
