Happy Farmer's Life

The doll woke up at night, and because she still had a fever, she seemed a little weak when speaking.

"Uncle, uncle, doll is sad and wants to drink water."

Lian Da slept soundly, Du Weiming poured water for the baby to drink.Wa Wa looked at Du Weiming and felt a little familiar, but he didn't know this brother himself.

"Baby, look, your uncle is sleeping next to you. Uncle is tired and resting. Baby is good. Do you feel uncomfortable?"

The doll shook her head, she couldn't tell what was wrong, but she seemed a little hungry.

"Waaaa, I feel a little hungry. Where are you from, brother? I haven't seen you before, baby?"

"My elder brother is from Sanqing Village where Wawa lives. Wawa was sick, and your uncle came to me with Dowa to take you to the doctor."

The baby nodded obediently, but didn't say much.Du Weiming hurried out to find Xiaoer to get some food.The doll was still wearing the ill-fitting clothes, and I forgot to buy him a new one after being busy for two days.Seeing the sweetness of sleeping, Du Weiming thought about it and forgot it, looked at the doll by himself, and went to buy it tomorrow.

Xiao Er quickly brought food, a bowl of noodles, and it was impossible to cook porridge in such a short time.The green vegetables, thin slices of meat, and the noodle soup seem to be high soup, which looks quite appetizing.

"Baby, eat on the bed, or at the table?"

"Brother, I want to eat at the table."

Du Weiming picked up the doll, covered him with a piece of clothing, and let him eat at the table.Seeing the baby like this, Du Weiming didn't dare to let him eat by himself, rolled up the noodles into a small ball, and fed it to the baby.A mouthful of noodles, a mouthful of soup, and some vegetables and sliced ​​meat, the baby is very happy to eat.The bowl of noodles is quite big, and the baby can't eat it after eating a third of it.Du Weiming thought about it and ate the rest, it's not good to waste it.My own dinner is also done.

Lian Da woke up at this time and saw that the doll was playing with Du Weiming.The two of them were quite happy to play, seeing that Lian Da woke up, Du Weiming asked Xiao Er to bring up another bowl of noodles, more noodles.Let Lian Da eat dinner, and Du Weiming went to make medicine for the baby.The baby seems to be much better after seeing the doctor. The medicine can't be stopped, and he can go back to the village as soon as he is cured.

Zhou Wen and Wang Wu arrived the next morning.When Wang Wu returned to the village yesterday, he notified Zhou Wen. The two of them sorted it out and it was already dark, so they had to wait until the next morning to go out.Fortunately, the rain finally stopped, and the road was easier to walk than yesterday, and we arrived at the inn in the morning.Du Weiming slept with the doll last night, and Lian Da was still a little worried about the doll, so he stayed by the bed to watch the doll at night.Seeing Zhou Wen and Wang Wu coming, Du Weiming asked for two more rooms.

The baby's illness seems to be better.But his forehead still seemed a little hot to the touch, so Du Weiming thought it was better to go to the doctor's office to have another look.Wawa was unhappy when he heard that he was going to the hospital, and quarreled and refused to go. Du Weiming saw that he seemed to be better, so he didn't force him.Let's drink medicine today, and wait until tomorrow to see the situation.

With the arrival of Zhou Wen and Wang Wu, there will be more people taking care of the doll, so Du Weiming thought it was better to go buy a new dress for the doll.Zhou Wen and Lian Da stayed in the inn to take care of the baby, while Wang Wu accompanied Du Weiming to the cloth shop.Buying ready-made clothes is more expensive than fabrics. Thinking of children's tender skin, Du Weiming bought clothes made of good cotton cloth, which cost 315 cash.After thinking about it, I went to the shopkeeper's shop again, because the business in the shop also dropped a lot due to the drought.The sales of soap and body oil have also dropped. These days, I only sold ten pieces of soap and a bottle of body oil, and got a total of [-] coins.Saying goodbye to the shopkeeper, Du Weiming walked around the street. There were no victims on the street, but compared with the lively scene in the past, it was a bit depressed. I was still a little worried about the baby. Du Weiming and Wang Wu returned without much delay. the inn.

The baby was very happy when she saw the new clothes Du Weiming bought for herself.Pounced on it, hugged Du Weiming and called "Brother is so kind, brother is so kind."For this elder brother who accompanies me to see a doctor, feeds me medicine, and now buys me new clothes, the doll seems to be no stranger.Wawa usually doesn't talk much to strangers, even Dawa was a little surprised to see that Wawa liked Du Weiming so much.Du Weiming helped the doll put on new clothes. You must know that dolls usually don't have any new clothes. It would be nice to have an old one during the Chinese New Year. Since the drought, not to mention new clothes, there are not many times when they can fill their stomachs.After the doll changed into clothes, she kept asking Du Weiming if she looked good. Du Weiming chose light yellow clothes for the doll. After washing her face and changing into new clothes, the doll felt much more energetic.

Baby sees Du Weiming and stops playing with Lian Da.Originally, even a tall and thick man would not know how to take care of children, let alone play with them.Du Weiming sat on his lap with the doll in his arms and told him stories, and the doll was fascinated by it.He followed Du Weiming when he ate and took medicine, and he also followed Du Weiming when he went to sleep at night.Now there are three rooms, Du Weiming originally planned to have one room for the baby and Lian Da, one room for Zhou Wen and Wang Wu, and one room for himself.There is no other way now, let the doll share a room with me, and let Lianda sleep in a room.

With the company of the doll, Du Weiming also felt less lonely.The child chirped and asked some questions and told him stories, and the time passed much faster.In the early morning of the third day, Du Weiming and others took the baby to the medical clinic again. The baby's fever seemed to have subsided, and they all said it was all right, let's go back to the village. Du Weiming was still worried and wanted to go see it again.The doctor showed the baby and told Du Weiming that there was nothing serious.Grab another patch of medicine and take it for two days.When the baby heard that it was time to drink medicine, her face wrinkled.The medicine is bitter, so hard to drink.Although after drinking the medicine, the elder brother will give the baby candied dates, but the baby still doesn't like to drink the medicine.

Back at the inn, everyone packed up and prepared to go back to the village.I went to the innkeeper to settle the bill. I spent a total of [-] Wen for two days plus food.Lian Da widened his eyes when he heard this, for it would cost four hundred Wen.The shopkeeper said that there was a drought, it was cheaper, it cost four hundred cash, it was money grabbing.Du Weiming didn't care much, he paid the money and asked Wang Wu to take the ox cart out. Thinking that the baby's illness had just recovered, Du Weiming and his party went to buy some pork, pork bones, melons and fruits and so on.Thinking that the baby doesn't like to drink medicine, Du Weiming went to buy candied dates snacks and weighed some pastries, and the group finally returned to the village in the afternoon.

Du Weiming and the others didn't meet anyone because of the rain that day when they came out to see a doctor.Aunt Zhang wondered why the door of Ergouzi's house next door was closed for the past two days. At this time, seeing Du Weiming and the others came back, he came to ask with a child in his arms.

"Er Gouzi, whose baby is this?"

"Auntie, it's from Brother Lian's family. He was sick two days ago, and I took him to the town to see a doctor."

The doll is wearing new clothes, but it is new and cute.Du Weiming asked him to call him Auntie, and the doll called him obediently.

"Is this kid cured now?"

"Well, I have to take medicine for two more days, so there's no big problem." After talking about other things, Du Weiming saw that the baby seemed a little tired, so he left and went back first.Sitting in the car, he saw that some villagers had already gone to work in the fields. Du Weiming was also thinking about whether to plant something. Let's discuss it together in the evening.

When I got back, I hurriedly made dinner. Even Da Ben wanted to bring the doll back, but it was wrong to think about it.It costs so much money to see a doctor, so I have to make an agreement before leaving.The doll doesn't care so much, it is pestering Du Weiming right now.On the way, Du Weiming promised to make a delicious meal for the baby, but he was just sick and couldn't eat anything too greasy, so Du Weiming decided to make small wontons at night.

Small wontons are called differently in different places, some are called flat food, some are called wonton, Chaoshou and so on.Du Weiming decided to make the simplest fresh meat wontons tonight.After the pork bones are cleaned, put them in a pot and stew.There is a big piece of wood in the earthen stove, so there is no need to worry about it.Let Zhou Wen take about half a catty of the pork he bought, wash it and chop it into a puree, and roll it out with noodles himself.I ate a piece of pastry on the way to the baby, and I am not hungry now, so I just squatted in the kitchen and watched Du Weiming work, but Du Weiming refused to leave even if he asked him to rest.Du Weiming found that the baby seemed to be very attached to him, and he seemed to be quite energetic, so he ignored him.Wang Wu and Lian Da went to cut the grass and feed the cows.

When the minced meat is about to be chopped, add some cooking wine and salt. After it is chopped, Du Weiming asks Zhou Wen to put the minced meat in a bowl, add an egg to it, and mix well.It is elastic to eat like this.It is also the first time for Du Weiming to make small wonton wrappers.This skin is different from dumpling skins and wonton skins. It is thin and small, and it took two tries to make it.

The pork bones in the pot were stewed as soon as they came back, and the aroma had gradually wafted out by this time.The doll couldn't bear it anymore.

"Brother, brother, what are you doing delicious?"

"My brother will make small wontons for the baby today, okay?"

"What are small wontons? The baby has never eaten."

Du Weiming himself couldn't explain what the little ravioli was, so he vaguely said that it was a delicious food, and he just asked the baby to eat it at night.

Considering the crowds today, people like Wang Wu would have to eat at least sixty or seventy, and Du Weiming himself would have to eat thirty or forty.Du Weiming made a lot of skins, probably hundreds of them.I can't eat it tonight, but I can have it for breakfast tomorrow.

After asking Zhou Wen to cut a small piece of wood and wash it, Du Weiming began to make small wontons.Dig some meat sauce from a small piece of wood and put it in the middle of the leather, just squeeze it with your palm.This must not be squeezed to death, otherwise it will be like gnocchi after cooking, which is not delicious.When you pinch it lightly, the stuffing in the middle will clump together when cooking, but the surrounding skin is still loose to be delicious.Du Weiming was not proficient at the beginning, but after making dozens of bags, he got started, moving quickly, one at a time.Du Weiming asked Zhou Wen to boil water to prepare the wontons.

Boil the water, put the small wontons in it and cook until they float up, add a little cold water and bring to a boil.The cooking time of the small wontons should not be too long, and the skin will not taste good if the skin is worn out.Du Weiming scooped pork bone soup into the bowl, put salt on it, scooped small wontons in it and sprinkled some green onion on it.

The baby looked very curious when he saw this strange food, and Zhou Wen and Wang Wu were already a little accustomed to the young master often making some strange but delicious food.After cooking three bowls first, Du Weiming asked Wawa, Lian Da and Wang Wu to eat first, and the pot continued to cook.The three of them enjoyed the delicious bone soup and the tender wontons.Another pot was cooked, and Du Weiming added some to Lian Da and Wang Wu after filling it for himself and Zhou Wen.

The small wontons taste delicious when they are freshly wrapped and cooked, but they won't taste very good the next day, so Du Weiming cooked the rest too.I still have confidence in their appetite, and I can eat them in one meal.The doll ate twenty and still wanted to eat, but Du Weiming refused to let it go. He just recovered from his illness, so he couldn't eat too much all at once.Promise to do it for him again tomorrow morning, and the baby will be happy.
