As for whether to adopt the child, she let Zhou Wenjun make the decision.

At the end of the letter, she told Zhou Wenjun.In her heart, she was actually willing to adopt this child.

Now it's up to his opinion.

After returning home at night.Xu Qian was in her room and built another small bed.

Although this bed is said to be a small bed, it is actually not too small, with a width of 1.5 meters.It is two meters long.

This bed was brought over from the old house, and it was specially made by Mrs. Zhou when she and Zhou Wenjun got married.

Later, when they moved, the brothers of the Zhou family also moved the bed down, and put it in the room where she slept.

The two beds face each other and are placed against the wall.

What Xu Qian originally thought was that when the three children were older, she would go to sleep in that small bed and leave her big bed for the three children to sleep in.This is convenient for her to take care of at night.

Before the three children turned seven years old, she didn't plan to drive them to live in the opposite room.

However, after the age of seven, they have to sleep in separate rooms.Come to think of it, as long as you sleep in separate beds for a long time.They will not be particularly unaccustomed to sleeping in separate rooms in the future.

Yesterday, she was too busy, so she didn't make the bed. The five of them slept together at night. Although the four children were not very big, their sleeping positions were not good.

Sleeping at night is really cramped.

Xu Qian decided to make up the small bed tonight and let Du Qian sleep alone on the small bed.

Her house has a lot of cotton quilts, not to mention the two [-]-meter quilts brought from modern times.

Let's just say her age.

When she got married, she brought two quilts that weighed eight pounds from her natal family.At the same time, Mrs. Zhou also made a six-jin quilt and a mattress for the bed.

Later, after the house in the yard was repaired, she bought two big quilts and two big mattresses.

The mattress was made of ten catties, two meters long and two meters wide, and it was specially used to cushion her four big new beds.

The quilt was also made very wide, measuring two meters by two meters.But it is not heavy, only five catties, suitable for summer cover.

These quilts and quilts are all made of cotton she took, and went to the cotton workshop in the town to make them custom-made.

The cotton wool workshop in the town is also owned by the public. Although they charge money for plucking cotton for the people, the money collected is not given to them.They also only get paid.

Now Xu Qian sleeps on this bed, and what she and her child cover is a summer quilt weighing five catties.

Because of the cold weather these few days, she was afraid of chilling the three children, so she put another thin blanket on top of the quilt.

If Du Qian sleeps alone, give him the one bought by Mrs. Zhou, and cover him with a quilt weighing six catties.

If the weather is colder, he will be replaced with an eight-pound quilt, and then a blanket can be placed on top of it.

Xu Qian had industrial coupons in her hand, so she also bought four blankets, two thin ones and two thick ones.

In order not to attract the attention of others, she bought these four blankets from the supply and marketing cooperatives in the town, the supply and marketing cooperatives in the county, department stores, and the black market in the county.

They are usually placed in a cabinet, locked with a lock, and only taken out when needed.

"Xiaoqian. Come on, try to keep warm?"

After Xu Qian made the bed, she patted the soft quilt, asked Du Qian to take off his shoes, and lay down on it to see if it was comfortable.

Du Qian's cheeks were slightly flushed, and he touched the soft quilt and the brand-new quilt cover carefully with his small hands, feeling very touched in his heart.

"Auntie, don't you need to give me a new one? If you have an old quilt at home, you can just cover it for me. You don't need to cover me with a new quilt."

In fact, this quilt is not new, but Xu Qian made a new one on the back.

The previous quilt cover, which needs to be sewn every time it is washed, is replaced by the four-piece set of later generations.

In this way, it will naturally look new.

"This bed is not new. These are all quilts made two years ago. We can't find any older quilts at home. It's okay, let's do it like this!"

"You also hurry to wash my face and feet and go to bed. Do you know where the footbath is placed?"

"knew."

Du Qian felt that Xu Qian said this on purpose.

I was afraid that he would not be willing to wear a new quilt, so I deliberately lied to him that it was an old quilt.He is not a three-year-old child anymore, can't he even tell the new from the old?

He has seen new quilts, but he has never slept on them.

In fact, that woman also has a new quilt. She is very precious, and every time some man will come.She will only take it out and use it, and usually doesn't give up the cover at all.

Even so, that woman's new quilt was no match for the bed he was covering now.If a quilt like this is not considered a new quilt, then what is?

Auntie really underestimated him. Do you really think he doesn't understand anything?It is precisely because he knows everything that he will deeply remember his aunt's kindness to him.

Du Qian, this kid, settled down.

Xu Qian was busy making sweet potato flour again. She had made almost half of the sweet potato flour before, and she had to finish the rest as soon as possible, and then dry it thoroughly.

Seeing that Xu Qian was making sweet potato flour, Du Qian came to help himself, but others were weak and weak, so they couldn't do anything else.

Just help Xu Qian wash the sweet potatoes, or help her scoop the chopped sweet potatoes into the stone mill.

Waiting for Xu Qian to push, after Xu Qian finished pushing, she scooped up another scoop.Xu Qian's strength is not as strong as a man's.

Even the women in many villages can't compare. After pushing with a stone mill for a while, their hands are sore.

Therefore, I can only push fifty catties of sweet potatoes at most every day.After being made into dry powder, it only weighs about fifteen catties.

In this way, the two worked continuously for another seven or eight days. Xu Qian felt that she was going to die of exhaustion, so she made all the sweet potatoes at home into dry powder.

After drying the last bit of sweet potato flour, Xu Qian finally couldn't bear it anymore, and lay down on the bed so tired.

After resting for four or five days, he recovered.

Xu Qian, who had recovered, weighed the dry powder at home, and the total was 220 catties.

Dry powder is not suitable for storage, so Xu Qian only plans to save [-] catties of dry powder to eat, and make the rest into vermicelli.

Dry sweet potato powder is also called tender meat powder in later generations. When frying meat, put some on top of the meat, and the meat is very tender.

In addition to fried meat, sweet potato powder can also be used in other dishes, so Xu Qian still has more.A full twenty catties can be eaten for two or three years.

In the past few days, Mrs. Zhou came to mention it every day. Xu Qian made sweet potato flour and filtered out sweet potato dregs.

Naturally, he also saw that five-year-old boy, Du Qian, who always followed Xu Qian's ass.

Mrs. Zhou also asked about this child, but Xu Qian only said that someone else was fostering here, and didn't say anything else.

This old lady is old-fashioned, and I'm afraid she doesn't like it. She will raise a child with a foreign surname at home in the future.So she didn't plan to talk about this matter until the conclusion was reached.

If Xu Qian didn't say anything, Mrs. Zhou didn't ask any more.She only thought that this was Xu Qian's child from a friend's family, or from a relative's family, who came to live with her for a while.

That's why I didn't ask much.

"My second family, you grow sweet potatoes well! The flour production is really high. Just a bunch of sweet potatoes yielded more than 220 catties of starch. That's okay!"

"When are you making vermicelli? My boss and I are also here to help you. You are too busy making vermicelli by yourself. You have to cook it and dry it."
