Chapter 174 Bamboo Cart

Zhao Chunhua always adds a few carefully selected sweet almonds to the stew during the cooking process, and then lets the liquid cool naturally to the best temperature for direct drinking before serving it to the children.

To be honest, even after such processing, there is still a slight unique taste, but it always seems a little difficult for adults to swallow.

However, the strange thing is that, perhaps it is because he was born with a special love for certain things, every time Xiao Shitou picked up the straw and began to sip this white drink with a slightly special flavor, his face was always filled with happiness and satisfaction, and he obviously liked this unique drink very much.

In fact, this is a very cleverly designed cup with a straw that was all the rage a few years ago.

Many people use this cup to drink water or beverages on social platforms and in daily life.

However, after using it several times, Zhao Chunhua gradually felt that the straw was too thin.

Every time she drinks water, she always needs to use greater strength to suck, which is far less convenient than drinking directly.

For this reason, Zhao Chunhua decided to put the cup aside and not use it anymore.

From then on, the once popular cup lay quietly in a corner of the locker, with no one paying attention to it.

If it weren't for the urgent need to find a straw suitable for Xiao Shitou, Zhao Chunhua might have completely forgotten the existence of such an object in her home.

Fortunately, when she was cleaning up the clutter, she suddenly found this long-unused cup with a straw, which was just right to solve the urgent problem.

Now it has been given a new mission. Although it is a bit narrow in caliber for adults, it is just the right choice for children.

Whenever night falls, Zhao Chunhua can feed Xiao Shitou milk or rice soup through this straw. Even when he is sleeping soundly, she can just pat him gently a few times to make him fall asleep again.

In this way, even if the child feels hungry at night, there is no need to worry about being woken up by hunger and difficult to soothe to sleep.

Since adopting this method, even getting up in the middle of the night to feed her child has become relatively easier for Zhao Chunhua, an already exhausted mother.

Because she doesn't have to spend too much time and energy taking care of the baby, she is able to get more rest time and thus maintain a better mental state to face daily life and work.

…

At dawn, when the first ray of sunlight shone into the window, Zhao Chunhua had already gotten up early as usual to prepare for the arrival of a new day.

In order not to delay her work and take good care of the child, she quickly prepared everything she needed and fed the little stone who was eagerly waiting for food the first breakfast of the day.

Then he took the basket and walked towards the old house in the early morning.

Even during the slack season, no one in the village would stay in bed and sleep after dawn.

The villagers all know that only hard work can lead to wealth, so everyone cherishes the morning time.

At this time in the old house, Tang's mother and Zhang Wei were busy preparing breakfast for the two lively and lovely children, and carefully taking care of them to enjoy the delicious food.

When Zhao Chunhua arrived at the old house, she happened to see the two elders busy at work.

"Mother-in-law, have you eaten yet?"

Tang's mother was the first to greet them, her voice full of kindness and concern.

"I ate a little bit. I need you to look after the kids for me today. I plan to go to the market to buy some things."

Zhao Chunhua responded gratefully, and then she asked Zhang Wei if she had any shopping needs, "If you need anything, please tell me in advance. If it's convenient, I can bring it back for you."

"If it's convenient, please bring me a pound of taro as well."

It is the time when fresh taro is on the market, and although there are no taro crops grown at home, Zhang Wei has a special liking for this sweet and soft ingredient.

After nodding and agreeing to Zhang Wei's request, Zhao Chunhua gently placed the small stone into Tiao Tiao's bamboo cart.

At this time, the naughty and cute little Tiaotiao was eating the breakfast in the bowl with relish. When he turned his head and saw his good friend joining in, he immediately turned his head and continued to focus on the delicious food in front of him, without being distracted by the small stone next to him.

He loved this bamboo stroller so much that he almost treated it as his own treasure. He usually only allowed his sister Tangyuan and little cousin to ride in it.

If other children just looked at it from a distance or even wanted to get closer, there would be a fierce protest. He firmly defended this special possession.

"My dears, be obedient. Grandma will buy you rice cakes as a reward when she comes back."

Zhao Chunhua hurriedly left these words and took the opportunity to quickly leave the house, because she knew that Xiao Shitou was very attached to her, and once he found that his mother was about to go out, he would immediately open his arms and ask to be hugged.

If he didn't get what he wanted, a heartbreaking, pleading expression would immediately appear on his face.

Although this makes people feel infinite pity, because there are so many things to buy today, considering the practical situation, I still choose not to bring Xiao Shitou out with me. After all, one more person will reduce the space available for carrying goods.

When Little Stone realized that his mother was not there, he was stunned for a moment, then began to twist his neck and look around for his mother, hoping to find her trace.

At this time, Tang Yuan, who was eating happily, quickly cleared the food in front of him, then picked up a small toy in his hand and walked towards Tang's mother, begging: "Grandma, please help me carry this into the car, I want to play with my brother."

As an older brother, he believed it was his responsibility to play with his younger brother to prevent him from feeling lonely and crying.

The slightly older child next to them, Tiao Tiao, seemed a little anxious.

Because he was afraid of accidentally getting his beautiful clothes dirty when eating alone, Zhang Wei did not directly hand him the bowl and chopsticks like she did with Tangyuan, but instead quickened her pace to help feed him.

All of this is to allow the three children to stay together more comfortably, so not long ago Shu Yixian found an experienced carpenter to specially make a widened bamboo cart.

If a regular-sized product is chosen, the children may not have enough space to move or turn around.

At this moment, the little stone that had always been the focus of attention was trying to stand up from the bamboo cart, holding on to the edge tightly with both hands.

After trying many times, although his face had turned red from the effort, he finally managed to stand up shakily.

Although he sat back down after just a few seconds, Zhang Wei was still pleasantly surprised and exclaimed, "So Little Stone can try to stand up now?"

Even if she can only maintain this posture for a short time, she believes that as long as she has the first successful experience
