Barefoot doctor: "ten days and a half months."
The patriarch nodded with satisfaction.
After the barefoot doctor left, the patriarch lay on the bed and looked at Li Changting: "Changting, you don't have to watch tonight. Go back to accompany your daughter-in-law."
Li Changting sat down on the stool beside him: "it's OK. I'll keep this night, or I won't be at ease."
After hearing this, the clan leader sighed and said to Li Jing, "jing'er, let your mother warm up on the stove at night and let the long Pavilion cushion her stomach."
"All right." Li Jing went out to find his mother in the kitchen with a smile.
"Will brother Changting still be here tonight?" Only Li Lian was washing dishes in the kitchen. Seeing her brother come in, she asked.
"Well, my grandfather said to let my mother make some snacks for brother Changting."
Li Lian's eyes are slightly bright: "my mother is bathing, let me do it!"
"You?"
"My skill is no worse than my mother's!"
"Well, you can do more. Brother Changting has a big appetite."
"Don't worry!"
In the main room, the patriarch talked with Li Changting for a while, and then fell asleep.
Li Shu and Li Jing also went to have a rest. They will come later to watch in the middle of the night.
The night deepened.
Li Changting reaches out his hand and taps at the clan leader's sleeping hole. Then he takes out a small porcelain vase from his pocket, lifts the quilt, carefully uncovers the medicine on the clan leader's wound, and sprinkles some powder in the bottle on the wound.
Looking at all the powder dissolved, Li Changting covered the wound medicine back, and then covered the quilt.
At this time, there were several knocks outside the door.
Li Changting put away the cap of the porcelain bottle and went to open the door.
Seeing Li Lian with a bowl of noodles outside the door, Li Changting asked, "what's the matter?"
"Brother Changting, this is the midnight snack I made for you." Li Lian looked at the handsome man in front of her shyly, "are you hungry? Do you want to eat some?"
"I'm not hungry." Li Changting flatly refused and closed the door.
Li Lian's smile was stiff on her face. She quickly put out her hand to block the door and said, "is it because I made it that you don't eat? But I've done it all. Would you like to have some? "
"I don't eat. Go out." Li Changting's face was slightly heavy.
When was Li Lian so cold faced? She looks good. Those men in the village who didn't marry their daughter-in-law always flatter her. They give her whatever she wants!
Only the man in front of her didn't give her a straight eye since he came back, and now he doesn't even have a good face!
"You know I like you. Can't you take a good look at me? What's worse than Xu Qing?"
"Let go."
"Believe it or not, I will marry you if you don't marry me!"
Li Lian was very angry. She suddenly pulled open her collar, revealing half of her snow-white shoulder. Her pink belly pocket was very attractive.
In fact, she has some thoughts of caesium inducement. Although she is not married, she also knows that it is difficult for men to refuse the beauties who come to her. Besides, Li Changting should be tired of Xu Qing for so many days.
Unfortunately, Li Changting was not moved at all, but sneered: "don't you feel ashamed to do this in front of your grandfather?"
Li Lian looks at the sleeping grandfather lying on the bed behind Li Changting. Suddenly, it's like a basin of cold water pouring down from the top of her head. She is ashamed and scared. She pulls back her collar like a thief.
Li Changting took advantage of the opportunity to close the door.
Li Lian stares at the closed door and runs away angrily.
In the middle of the night, Uncle Li came. Li Changting politely refused Uncle Li's stay and went home with a torch.
Xu Qing went to bed early last night and woke up early in the morning.
She went to the toilet and went into the space under the cover of the toilet.
Xu Qing wants to water the seeds he planted yesterday as soon as possible, otherwise he will not find a chance to enter the space if he is busy during the day.
Xu Qing went in to have a look, and was shocked to find that all the two kinds of vegetables sprouted yesterday!
Green buds come out of the soil, showing a little tender tip.
After Xu Qing was shocked, he was overjoyed and quickly poured some more water into the two fields.
The seeds of the vegetable sprouted, but before the seed of the fruit tree moved, Xu Qing watered it out of the space.
She went to the kitchen and took out the pigskin soup cooked yesterday. It had solidified into pigskin jelly, but it was not tight because the temperature was not low enough, but it was still OK to make soup bags.
Xu Qing kneaded the noodles and began to chop the stuffing as he let them stand. After the stuffing was adjusted, the noodles were almost finished.
Li Changting was awakened by fragrance.
When he walked out of the room, he saw Li Tinghui eating steamed stuffed buns in the yard with a bowl in his arms. The juice of the soup dumplings overflowed and flowed half a bowl. Suddenly, the fragrance overflowed.
Li Changting went into the kitchen along with the flavor, but he didn't see Xu Qing. He caught a glimpse of the drawer on the stove. When he opened the lid, it was covered with small, delicate, steaming cages. The smell of noodles and meat came on his face, which made Li Changting swallow his saliva.Xu and Li Jinmei went to work in the field early in the morning.
Two and a half mu of land, one mu for sweet potato, potato and corn, the three crops interplanting, one mu for various seasonal vegetables, the remaining half mu for soybeans, peanuts and watermelon.
Now it's a little late to plant watermelon. Xu Qing doesn't have many kinds. He left some watermelon seeds and plans to try them in the space.
Xu Qing and Li Jinmei planted two mu of land in one morning, and Li Changting was responsible for watering and fertilizing.
At noon, Cao Laoliu came with two beehives.
Xu Qing looked at it, which was almost the same as what she had imagined, so she lit a cigarette and put the two bags of bees into two beehives, and then added a bowl of honey to each beehive. The four moved to the vegetable field together, where Xu Qing left a special place for the beehives.
If the bees can't find food, they will move their families. When the bees adapt to the new hive, Xu Qing has to keep them with honey water.
The rest is to build a pig shed.
Li Changting invited two experienced men from the village to choose the right place in the yard.
The barn should be located in a good place. It should not be too close to the house. Otherwise, it's smelly and noisy, which will affect people's life. It should not be too far away. It's not safe. If someone steals it, they don't know.
It seems that the place close to the cliff is the most suitable. It's far enough from the house. As long as the yard is expanded and the pig shed is included in the yard, you don't have to worry about insecurity. There is no owner's Wasteland under the cliff. When the time comes, the dirty water will fall directly.
In this way, Xu Qing's yard will be twice as big as the original, and it will be no problem to build a few more houses.
After choosing the place, Li Changting invited people to start construction.
It's very cold here in winter. If the livestock will freeze to death, a hot Kang will have to be built, and the ventilated place will have to be sealed with thick grass mat.
Livestock manure is a natural fertilizer. With these pigs and sheep, at least the fertilizer in Xu Qing's family's field is not to worry about.
