Chapter 124 Making Shoes

It is easy to get moldy and deteriorate; so we decided to take it out to ventilate and dry it during the day, and then store it back in the house at night.

In the next period of time, the most important task is to prepare firewood for heating in the winter.

In addition, various vegetables in the courtyard are ripe and ready to be harvested.

In addition to what she grew in her own fields, Zhao Chunhua would secretly hide some in the storage room from time to time.

Whenever winter comes, she always misses this rare fresh green.

Some might say that her little privileges are of little use?

However, it turns out that it does play a significant auxiliary role in daily life.

After night fell, when Zhao Chunhua sat at the table thinking about how to solve the current food storage problem, she still felt very distressed.

The part of the land that I currently rent out to others for cultivation and the part of the land that my good friend Shu Yanyou's family has been allocated do not need to pay taxes;

In comparison, the only two acres of rice fields and one acre of dry land on his side enjoy tax exemption treatment, while the remaining three pieces of land of similar size still need to pay corresponding taxes as required.

After witnessing the changes that education brings to her child, Zhao Chunhua has become more determined to pay more attention to her son's studies in the future.

If brothers can be more diligent and hardworking, the future will be very different.

By then, all the harvested crops can be kept intact for the family's own consumption.

Although farming is really hard work, requiring you to get up early and come back late every day, and your body often feels exhausted, the land is still a valuable resource worth continuing to add to.

It not only provides a self-sufficient source of food, but also brings in some extra income, alleviating the financial pressure on the family.

But this is not a easy thing to do. After all, she doesn't like to go out very much and doesn't pay much attention to what's happening outside, so she is relatively isolated from information.

She knew clearly that she was not good at interpersonal communication. If she went out to deal with those who were responsible for collecting intelligence, she might offend people because she spoke too directly. After all, sometimes the words came out without careful consideration.

When you encounter something that you don’t like, you can’t help but make a few comments, which often brings you unnecessary trouble.

So after comprehensive consideration, it is better to stay at home and talk to yourself or write or draw. Anyway, you won’t annoy others.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that there are still many problems. Zhao Chunhua shook her head gently and decided not to worry about these troubles. Since at least she has enough food and clothing now, why should she force herself to do things she doesn't like and is not good at?

Today is a good day to restock after all, as some of the food stored at home is running out.

In order to reward herself for her recent hard work, Zhao Chunhua decided to make herself a delicious meat pie as a midnight snack.

The delicious food brought a smile to her face and she felt particularly happy after eating.

After a simple wash, he lay down to rest early.

A new day has begun, and for Zhao Chunhua it is still an ordinary and normal day.

I got up early in the morning and went to the market to buy a few pounds of fresh pork, and then brought it back home.

This time he did not go home alone, but brought his grandsons Tangyuan and Tiaotiao with him to stay for a few days.

She thought that since she couldn't take care of her son, she should start caring for her grandchildren first.

Tangyuan and Tiaotiao were very excited when they heard that they were going to stay at grandma's new home for a few days, and they readily agreed.

Although they can still only play in the yard, for the children, the new environment is full of all kinds of unknown fun and excitement.

My little grandson Xiao Shitou can now sit up independently and occasionally try to crawl forward a few steps.

At this time, he was lying on the ground, watching his two brothers playing and fighting attentively.

Compared to Tangyuan, who has a slightly quieter personality, Tiaotiao is obviously more active and curious.

So, after observing for a while, Tiaotiao was the first to walk towards Xiaoshitou, squatted in front of him, and stared at this little brother who could not walk yet with great interest.

Little Stone blinked, and the figure of the stranger in front of him was reflected in his clear eyes, but he actually didn't know who this person was.

"This is the eldest brother, and this is the second brother."

Zhao Chunhua pointed at the two children and introduced them to Xiao Shitou.

She smiled softly, turned around and asked them, "Do you want to play with your brother in the room or in the yard?"

"Grandma, I want to play with my brother in the house."

Tang Yuan spoke slowly but spoke every word clearly, with a hint of pleading in his tone, as if he was afraid of missing something.

Okay, Zhao Chunhua nodded, took off the shoes of the two children and let them into the room.

She gently picked up Little Stone and placed him on the soft bamboo mat, allowing the children to play freely.

A whole bamboo mat is laid in the children's room. The texture of the bamboo mat is comfortable, and neither adults nor children can step on it directly with shoes on.

This not only keeps the room clean, but also makes children feel more at ease when playing on it.

Otherwise, why would we lay out the bamboo mats?

Zhao Chunhua took out some cloth toys she had prepared from the storage box and let the children play with them.

These toys were all sewed by her own hands using scraps of cloth, and every stitch and thread was filled with her love.

Looking at the colorful dolls, which are stuffed with a little cotton and are soft, children especially like to play with them.

The three brothers were laughing and playing in the room, and the atmosphere was very warm.

Zhao Chunhua sat in the main room and watched them quietly with a smile on her lips.

Suddenly, she discovered a problem: Little Stone didn't even have a pair of shoes.

He was only wearing a pair of white socks on his feet, and because he was always held in her arms, Zhao Chunhua didn't notice that he had no shoes.

There is no need to wear shoes now, but as the child grows up, maybe one day he will stand up and learn to walk.

I can't start making shoes for him then...

But the problem is that Zhao Chunhua doesn't know how to make shoes.

She sighed inwardly, it turned out that the person who could have helped her wouldn't be able to do that either.

Although farming is really hard work, requiring you to get up early and come back late every day, and your body often feels exhausted, the land is still a valuable resource worth continuing to add to.
