Be nice, my baby

Chapter 3

Lao Liu and Liu Ma are people who know how to live. In addition to farming, the family also raises a lot of chickens and a few goats. The mutton is specially provided to the barbecue stalls and restaurants in the town. The village can be regarded as a group that has a very good life.

A few days ago, a ewe gave birth, and two of the cubs were stillborn, and the only one survived. The ewe swelled and chased the cub to nurse all day long, making the cub's stomach swell. The sheep barked uncomfortably.

Mama Liu thought for a while, and at night she applied warm water to the ewe's breasts, squeezed out a large vat, and took it to Old Man Li's house.

"I'm going too, I'm going too!" Liu Qiang grabbed Liu Ma's arm and yelled vigorously.

"Okay, okay, let's go!" Liu Ma held the porcelain jar in one hand and held Liu Qiang with the other hand.

"Uncle Li, Uncle Li, are you at home?" Liu Qiang shouted at the top of his voice.

After all, Uncle Li was getting old, but his body was still strong, but his hands and feet were slow. Liu Qiang and Liu Ma waited for a long time before Old Man Li came out.

At that time, electricity was already connected to the village, but most of the villagers were reluctant to pay for the electricity fee, and they were absolutely reluctant to turn on the lights until it was completely dark.

"Good boy, come and see Wanzai again!" Old man Li greeted loudly.

Before Mama Liu could say anything, Liu Qiang responded, "chucked" and got in.

At this time, old man Li was feeding Li Wan rice paste while there was still some light, and the bowl and small spoon were still on the table.

Liu Qiang brought the bowl over with difficulty on tiptoe, and skillfully dug out a small half spoon and touched Li Wan's tender lips, "Brother Wan, eat!"

Li Wan opened her mouth along the spoon, took a big mouthful, and sucked repeatedly in her mouth, revealing half a small dimple on her face.

Liu Qiang gently poked it with his finger, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth...

"Liu Qiang, let's go, let's go home!" Mother Liu had already explained the goat milk matter to old man Li, and she stood outside and shouted without entering the house.

"Be good and stay here for dinner!" Old man Li said cheerfully.

Liu Ma declined a few words and led Liu Qiang's home.

It's the end of July now, and the apricot trees in the village are already bare. Old man Li collected a lot of apricot pits in June and dried them up. It just came in handy in a moment.

Old man Li didn't care about the rice being mushy, and it was better for children to drink milk, so he touched two handfuls of apricot pits and smashed them, and boiled the goat milk with almonds.

I don’t have a feeding bottle at home, so if I have milk, I can only put it in a bowl and feed it spoonful by spoonful...

The ewe provided Li Wan with goat milk for four months. When the goat milk could no longer be squeezed out, Li Wan had already grown several teeth, and the nine-month-old child would not drink milk. It's okay, but for some reason, his body is still weak, and old man Li is not a careful person. Li Wan didn't know how many needles were inserted in the health center in the town...

"Good boy, is it cold?" Old man Li carried his load up the ridge between several lakes and saw a group of bastards in the village carrying stones on a small slope. Don't stay in the cool house, what are you doing to move these stones outside under the cool wind!

Once the summer is over, we can’t find suitable small things such as grasshoppers and grasshoppers. Old man Li cuts bamboo back, slices it into thin slices, and weaves small baskets and baskets to sell in the town. Occasionally, someone in the village wants Yes, I am also willing to buy it from old man Li. After half a year of work like this, old man Li has also made some money.

"Daddy Li!" Liu Qiang patted the dirt on his hands, and ran towards old man Li like a cannonball.

Li Wan, who was lying in the small rocker nest at one end of the pole, also heard Liu Qiang's familiar voice, and sat up abruptly. Fortunately, the thick cotton coat hindered his movement, otherwise he would have to fall to the ground.

"Hey, my little Jiaojiao!" Old man Li hurriedly put down his shoulder pole and supported Li Wan.

"Qiangzi, are you still playing?" Ma Kai shouted from the top of the slope.

"You guys play first, I'll help Daddy Li send Brother Wan back first, I'll be here in a while!" Liu Qiang roared without looking back.

"Good boy, look at Xiaowan, let's go!" Old man Li said with a smile.

Liu Qiang spread his hands to protect both sides of the small rocking nest, and trotted behind the burden.

Li Wan jumped up and down excitedly in the little rocking nest, laughing from time to time, as if he thought it was fun to rock like this.

Old man Li was a little unsteady with his burden, so he hurried a few steps and arrived at the door of the house.

The blue-tiled house newly built by Mr. Li two years ago was taken by Mr. Li's second family. Mr. Li's original old house has long been lived in by Mr. Li's family. Now Mr. Li lives in the row behind Liu Qiang and the others. , is also a newly opened homestead in the past few years. When the land was divided, Mrs. Li had just passed away. There are a lot of places, and no one has any opinions. The three brothers of the Li family and the two married girls of the Li family each took some money and worked together to build a small tile house for old man Li. The kitchen is covered with a tile house. A small thatched cottage was built on one side...

After having Li Wan, the old man himself used bamboo curtains to separate the tiled house. The outside is the main room, and the inside is the bedroom of the grandparents and grandchildren.

Old man Li put down the burden and carried Li Wan out on the bed. After digging in his pocket for a long time, he took out three milk candies, "Hey, I'll eat it for you!"

At that time, you could buy three milk candy for a dime, but it was still a rare item in the countryside.

Liu Qiang picked it up with a smile on his face, carefully tore off half of the candy wrapper while making sure that his muddy hands would not touch the candy, bit out the candy, and after a few rounds in his mouth, the candy became soft , Bite a small corner with her front teeth, put it on the tip of her tongue, and feed it into Li Wan's wide-eyed mouth.

Li Wan's pink mouth immediately began to wriggle quickly, and her smiling eyes were narrowed into two slits.

"Be good, eat it yourself, don't give it to Xiaowan!" Old man Li explained loudly while arranging the things on the burden outside.

Liu Qiang answered loudly, and secretly showed a big milky smile to Li Wan.

After old man Li finished touching it, he came in to take over Li Wan. Liu Qiang's milk candies were almost the same as Li Wan's. He was still thinking about the friends on Xiaopo, so he said to old man Li, bouncing around Jumped and ran out...

Old man Li picked up Li Wan, and smelled the smell of milk candy, he smiled and cursed helplessly, "Stinky boy, I secretly gave it to Xiao Wan again..."

Li Wan smacked his lips, as if he was still relishing the taste of candy, wriggling restlessly on Old Man Li's body.

"Little boy, your brother Qiangzi is gone, don't move, you can go out to play with brother Qiangzi when you grow up..." Old man Li tied Li Wan to his back with cloth strips, chattering While talking to himself, he groped into the vegetable garden behind the house and shoveled a cabbage into the house, and began to prepare dinner.
