Wake up suddenly, back to the time when my wife and daughter had an accident

Every time Meng Haisheng came to the county to deliver Bupleurum, he would buy something for his family when he returned.

Sometimes he would buy some snacks, sometimes he would buy some daily necessities.

Since the last prenatal checkup, Lin Muching's taste has become very strange.

A few days ago, she vomited because of the smell of fish, but a few days later, she began to like eating fish very much again, and it was the kind of fishy fish.

Meng Haisheng passed by the market and walked around.

Because it was too hot, there were no fresh sea fish in the market, so Meng Haisheng had to settle for the next best thing and bought some small dried fish.

There are many varieties of small dried fish, and Lin Muching likes to eat a kind of thin and long dried fish that looks a bit like eels.

Meng Haisheng bought 5 kilograms at a time, so that he would not be too busy to buy it for Lin Muching, and buy more at home, so that she could steam a bowl when she wanted to eat it.

Cut the dried fish into pieces, sprinkle some peanut oil on it, steam it in a pot, sprinkle some chopped green onions on it when it comes out of the pot, and eat it with freshly cooked steamed buns and corn cakes. The taste is simply amazing.

There is no fresh sea fish, so Meng Haisheng bought a big carp and prepared to make braised carp for lunch today.

When he came out of the market, Meng Haisheng saw someone selling candied fruits.

Lin Mucheng likes to eat sour food recently, so Meng Haisheng weighed some dried apricots and dried plums for her.

He also bought a bag of candied fruits for Momo, the greedy little cat, and then came out of the market with a lot of bags.

Influenced by Meng Haisheng, Meng Hailian also bought some food and daily necessities for his wife and children.

"Brother, I remember that last time when we came to deliver Chaihu, you just bought sandals for Dabao and Erbao, why did you buy them again this time?"

"Don't mention it, the two naughty boys went to the mountain to get bird eggs two days ago, and they broke such sturdy sandals. If it had happened, I would have beaten them up."

A pair of children's sandals costs one yuan at the cheapest, and the ones with slightly better quality cost at least two or three yuan.

In the past, my family was poor, and the children wore out their sandals, but the adults in the family were reluctant to buy new ones.

Heat the fire stick red, melt the broken part, and then glue the broken part of the sandals together.

The glued sandals will leave a very ugly scar, and sometimes they will hurt your feet when you wear them, and you need to tie a piece of cloth on them before you can wear them.

Some adults are not good at craftsmanship, and they can't be glued firmly, so they will open again after wearing for a while.

Or they will be glued too big and you can't even put your feet in.

So there are often children in the village, one foot of the sandal is good, and the other foot of the sandal is directly cut into a sandal.

Meng Hailian's two children used to wear this way.

But now Meng Hailian and Wu Lixia are making money every day, and they are free, so they naturally don't want to treat their children badly.

The whole Xiashan Village has changed unconsciously because of Meng Haisheng's rebirth.

Meng Haisheng not only changed the fate of his family, but also changed the lives of many people in Xiashan Village.

Momo heard the sound of the tractor and trotted out of the house to greet Meng Haisheng.

"Dad, you are back, Momo misses you so much."

Little Momo jumped into Meng Haisheng's arms and called him dad sweetly.

"You little greedy cat, you don't miss me, you must be thinking about the things in my pocket."

Meng Haisheng went to the county to sell Bupleurum, which became Momo's most anticipated thing.

Because Meng Haisheng always brought her a little surprise.

Sometimes it was a little skirt, sometimes it was a bag of milk candy, and sometimes it was a beautiful little hairpin.

Unconsciously, Momo became a little celebrity among her peers.

Everyone knew that Meng Haisheng doted on Momo, the little cotton-padded jacket, as if it were his eyeball.

Lin Muching came out when he heard the noise.

Meng Haisheng held Momo in one hand and walked into the house happily with things in the other hand.

Near noon, Qu Lan and others went home to cook, and only Momo and Lin Muching were at home.

"Mucheng, you are in advanced pregnancy, so you must pay attention to your feet when you go out."

"I'll take a good rest in our alley when I have time. It's bumpy and it's not safe to walk."

Meng Haisheng put down the things, helped Lin Muching, and let her sit on the chair under the eaves.

Lin Muching's belly was actually only 4 months old, but she was pregnant with triplets, and her belly was a circle bigger than others when she was pregnant.

Meng Haisheng looked at her big belly and was very nervous. It was only 4 months old and it was so big. What would he do in the future?

"I'm not as delicate as you say."

Lin Mucheng looked at Meng Haisheng with a smile. He said he wanted to repair the road in the alley, and he really could do it.

"I've prepared lunch. You should wash your hands quickly. We can eat in a while."

"Didn't we agree that I would cook? Why are you taking my job again?"

"Dad, I also help Mom cook. I picked and broke the beans."

"Okay, Momo is the most diligent.It's almost time. Dad will reward you with a big watermelon later."

"Dad, shouldn't you reward me with a popsicle? I saw that Dabao has eaten it."

Meng Haisheng pinched Momo's little face speechlessly. Feelings were waiting for him here.

"Your Dabao is a primary school student now. You haven't even gone to kindergarten yet. When you go to kindergarten, you can eat popsicles."

"That will take a long time."

"You feel a long time. In Dad's eyes, you have grown taller and grown up all of a sudden."

At noon, Lin Mucheng made stir-fried pork with beans, steamed eggs, and rice.

Meng Haisheng came back with quick hands and feet and made another braised carp. Their family's lunch today was quite rich.

While eating, Meng Haisheng told Lin Mucheng that Mr. Dong asked him to dig earthworms.

"You have to dig Bupleurum and earthworms. Can you handle it like this? ”

“I won’t dig Bupleurum later. I’ll talk to my elder brother and Daniu in the afternoon. Tomorrow morning, the three of us will go to the mountain to dig earthworms to see if they are easy to catch.”

“Earthworms are alive. It will be troublesome to pack and dry them when we go to catch them tomorrow.”

Just put Bupleurum directly in the basket after digging it out. I’m afraid that earthworms will run away in a short time if you put them in the basket.

“What’s the trouble? Find a bigger katydid cage and put the earthworms in it directly after you catch them. When you wash them, throw them into the water together with the cage. When you dry them, hang them under the eaves for a day. They will probably be almost dead.”

Meng Haisheng suddenly felt that Lin Mucheng’s idea was feasible.

“But where can you get a big katydid cage? You don’t catch earthworms by one or two kilograms, do you? "

Lin Mucheng had never seen a big katydid cage. It was usually the size of a palm. Even if such a large katydid cage was filled, it could not hold many earthworms.

"You have to go to Grandpa for this. Grandpa is very skilled. The katydid cage he weaves is the most beautiful in our village."

When Meng Haisheng was a child, he also liked to catch katydids all over the mountains and fields. His father and grandfather did not have such skills. Every time he wanted to catch katydids, he would go to beg Grandpa Meng.

Although Grandpa Meng always blew his beard and glared, Meng Haisheng would get a beautiful katydid cage every time.

After lunch, Meng Haisheng took two pounds of meat and went to Grandpa Meng's house.

"How big a katydid cage do you want?"

Grandpa Meng did not refuse Meng Haisheng and accepted the pork he sent very readily.

"It doesn't have to be too big, just about the same as this vegetable basket. "

Meng Haisheng pointed to the baskets in the yard.

The diameter of the baskets was about 40 cm wide, which was quite large.

"Okay, are you in a hurry?"

"Yes, it would be best if I could weave it this afternoon."

"That's easy. Come and help me cut the bamboo strips. I can weave two for you in one afternoon."
