A few people finished eating in a short time, and there was no pimple soup or vegetables left. After the three of them went to dig a hole to bury the tree stump, Aunt Dahua said: "These young men are really good at eating. If there are three of them in a family, , even big houses have to be turned into side sheds.”
"Hahaha, Auntie, what you said is so funny. I'm happy that they eat like this. Doesn't this just prove that my cooking skills are pretty good? Besides, it's good to finish eating so that I don't have to think about how to clean up. After eating like this, I just clean up and wash it, it’s so easy to clean up,” Fang Nuo said with a smile.
"You, you are also kind-hearted, and you prepared breakfast for them. If you ask someone else, you won't even give them some oil and water for lunch," Aunt Dahua said while helping to clean up.
"I'm not thinking that if I'm full, they can help me work with peace of mind," Fang Nuo said.
While the two were talking, they took the dishes and chopsticks away to the kitchen to clean them.
After finishing it, I went back to the room to see if Yaya woke up. Unexpectedly, she had already woken up, but she didn't cry. She turned over, lay on the quilt, grabbed a toy next to the pillow and played with it.
Fang Nuo smiled and picked her up: "We Yaya are awake, you are so good."
"Your Yaya seems to be here to repay a favor. When my two-skinned monkey was little, he woke up without seeing anyone, and his cries almost collapsed half of the roof." Auntie Dahua took Yaya's little hand. said
"My Yaya feels sorry for me. I was also negligent. She only got sick two days ago. She is feeling better today and is a little energetic," Fang Nuo said.
"It's not your intention to make the child sick. Don't think too much about it. The child is fine now. You just need to pay more attention later." Aunt Dahua comforted her.
"Well, aunt, you don't need to comfort me. I know all this. Even her sudden illness still scared me." Fang Nuo thought about that night and she didn't dare to sleep for a single song. She didn't dare to sleep until Yaya stopped having a fever. I slept peacefully, but I was still a little scared.
"It's good if you think like this. Come here, I'll hold Yaya while you go take a look and get something for her to eat," said Aunt Dahua.
After letting Yaya be held by Aunt Dahua, Fang Nuo went to the kitchen, blanched some cabbage, chopped it with meat, and then scooped out some rice and boiled it into rice porridge.
Put it in a small bowl, carry it back to the room, blow it to cool it down, and then feed Yaya some.
Today I changed to a new flavor. Yaya ate more than yesterday and felt a lot more energetic.
After feeding Yaya, I changed her diaper, put on her small clothes, and then carried her to the yard.
At this time Wang Junyu came over and asked: "Sister-in-law Fang, do you have dry straw and bamboo at home?"
"I don't have any of these at home. Is it urgent to look for them now?" Fang Nuo asked.
"It's quite late, but the three of us can't leave now. Sister-in-law, why don't you go out to cut some hay and bring back some thin bamboo strips?" Wang Junyu said
"Okay, I'll be there soon. Is there anything else I need? If so, I'll bring it back together," Fang Nuo asked.
She often cuts grass outside, so she knows where there is hay and where there are bamboo forests in the mountains. It doesn't take much effort to find these.
"There is no shortage. These are the only things we are missing now. After we finish the frame, we need to cover it with hay," Wang Junyu said
"Okay, I'll be there in a minute. If you haven't waited for me to come back after you finish, just take a rest and wait for me to come back before you start again," Fang Nuo said.
After Wang Junyu went back to continue working, she turned around and gave Yaya to Aunt Dahua to hold, and said to her: "Auntie, I have to ask you to help me carry Yaya for a while. I will go out and get the missing things." "
"Sure, do you know where these things can be found?" Aunt Dahua asked.
"I often cut grass everywhere, and I have encountered these two things. Don't worry, Auntie," Fang Nuo said.
"Then be careful and go back quickly," Aunt Dahua said.
Fang Nuo waited for her to finish speaking, nodded, and went to get the basket and machete. Then he went out and ran into the mountains. He first cut a large basket of pointed dry thatch, and on the way down the mountain, he cut a lot of bamboo and tied it up. He was dragged down the mountain with his arms in his arms.
They went out for more than an hour. When they got home, the three of them still had a while to finish the frame of the shed.
She poured all the grass on the ground and asked the three of them if it was enough. If not, she would cut some more.
The three of them looked at it and thought it was enough, so she looked at Yaya with confidence.
Seeing that she was being led by Aunt Dahua and she was very well-behaved, I went to the backyard to get vegetables and came back to prepare lunch.
Seeing her go into the kitchen to prepare lunch, the three people there were a little curious, so they sent Wang Junyu to ask Aunt Dahua.
"Mom, my sister-in-law has already cooked for us this morning. Why are you cooking now?" Wang Junyu asked in a low voice as he approached.
"That's because your sister-in-law, Xiaonuo, is a nice person. I thought you would do hard work for a day and was afraid that you would be hungry, so I cooked breakfast for you. You have to work hard and don't be lazy, you know?" Aunt Dahua said
"Well, we were overthinking that morning. We all thought that my sister-in-law was trying to save food, so she included breakfast instead of lunch." As soon as Wang Junyu heard his mother's explanation, he knew that they were overthinking it, and he suddenly felt a little worried. Excuse me.
"Go back to work quickly and do it well. There are only two orphans and a widowed mother in this family. If you don't do well, how will they live in the future?" Aunt Dahua said
"Okay, mother, I'll go right away. Don't tell my sister-in-law what we were thinking about this morning," Wang Junyu said.
After he went back and told the two of them what had happened, they felt a little embarrassed, so they worked more carefully.
Fang Nuo was busy in the kitchen, preparing the meal quickly.
At noon, we still had two dishes and one soup. After we had finished preparing the food, we went out of the room and set it up before calling a few people to eat.
Yaya had fallen asleep here, so Aunt Dahua took her back to the house and slept.
After several people washed their hands and ate together, the three of them rested for a while. Fang Nuo went to the backyard to pick a watermelon, cut it and gave it to them to eat, and then she took back the dishes and chopsticks to wash.
The few people didn't expect that they would not only eat two meals that day, but also eat watermelon. They suddenly felt that Fang Nuo was at a huge disadvantage if they came to work.
After eating the watermelon, the three of them continued working, while Aunt Dahua went to the backyard to spread plant ashes into the vegetable patch.
After Fang Nuo finished cleaning the kitchen, he went to the room with steamed eggs for Yaya.
Yaya woke up not long after smelling the aroma of steamed egg custard.
Seeing that she woke up, Fang Nuo picked her up and teased her for a while. After testing that the eggs were not hot, she started to feed her.
Aunt Dahua finished scattering the plant ashes, washed her hands in the yard and came in. Seeing that she was already feeding her, she said, "Wake up, look how delicious this food is."
"Well, maybe I'm hungry. I should be feeling better today. The food tastes better than yesterday." Fang Nuo replied with a smile.
"It's good if it's fine. If it's not good again, you can go see the barefoot doctor in the village, the one on the edge of the mountain behind my house," said Aunt Dahua.
