Chapter 212: Stingy
In order to prevent external pollutants from invading and affecting the final quality, careful women also specially choose tight and strong pure cotton cloth to wrap the entire vessel, and cover it with warm items such as quilts. By artificially creating a closed environment, they maintain a suitable temperature to promote the growth and development of good microorganisms, thereby achieving the expected ideal effect.
Although it will take time for the newly made rice wine to fully transform and form its unique aroma, the air in the kitchen is already filled with the rich and tempting aroma of rice.
While the rice wine was being brewed in full swing, Zhao Chunhua suddenly remembered the remaining fragrant freshly steamed glutinous rice from the morning. She had already premeditatedly taken out a separate portion and stored it in the cupboard to keep it warm, waiting to take it out at lunch time for the whole family.
At this time, she took out the bowl of rice and picked some food stored in the warehouse to add to the bowl - the fried crispy peanuts, each of which exuded an enticing aroma; the cold shredded potatoes were even more attractive in color, crispy and delicious; plus the hot, crispy and tender roast duck pieces, each piece was delicious and fragrant.
Pair it with a bowl of steaming lotus root and pork ribs soup. The soup is rich in color, the lotus root is sweet and refreshing, and the pork ribs are stewed until they are well-cooked, with the meat and bones falling apart when you bite them.
The meal made her very satisfied and she felt warm all over.
Tomorrow is the 10th, and Zhao Chunhua plans to go to town.
This time, she planned to take Xiao Shitou out to relax.
The family has basically prepared all the winter supplies, and it is inevitable that they will feel a little stuffy staying at home every day, so she wants to go out and breathe some fresh air and let the little one get some fresh air.
In addition, she remembered that Xie Wenxing might come to the town to check the accounts recently, and she could send her new design over and ask him for some advice.
In addition, you can also take the opportunity to stroll around the market and see if there are any new things to sell.
She led Little Stone to practice walking in the house for a while. The little guy took small, wobbly steps, and every step seemed like he was trying so hard.
Looking at his appearance, Zhao Chunhua's heart was filled with satisfaction and pride.
Who would have thought that in this completely unfamiliar world, she would be able to find such a deep emotional connection?
For her, being able to take good care of this little life is a great honor.
It is an invaluable experience.
In preparation for tomorrow's trip, both of them decided to go to bed early tonight.
In fact, it was mainly because Zhao Chunhua went to bed early, while Xiao Shitou had always maintained a fixed schedule.
This will allow both of you to greet the new day with full energy.
The next morning, before daybreak, Zhao Chunhua had already gotten up and started preparing a backpack for Xiao Shitou.
She put a soft blanket in the backpack to ensure that the little one would not catch a cold or get injured due to the bumpy journey.
Then I put away the various diapers and supplies that Xiao Shitou needed, and everything was in order.
When Little Stone wakes up, all you have to do is put him in the backpack that has been prepared and you can set off.
As soon as Xiao Shitou opened his eyes, he saw Zhao Chunhua busying around.
At this moment she was dressing him in layers of thick clothes.
If Xiao Shitou could express his wishes clearly, Zhao Chunhua would know that he actually didn't like wearing so many clothes.
After all, children have short legs and arms, and too many thick clothes will only make it more inconvenient for them to move.
Despite this, Zhao Chunhua still hoped that he could keep warm and try not to catch a cold.
But when Zhao Chunhua put him in the backpack, the little guy looked very happy.
As far as he could remember, he would only use this thing when he was going out.
Even though the weather was cold, the children's desire to go out and play did not change at all.
"Just sit in the backpack and I'll take you to the city to play today."
Even in winter, the ox carts here still have no shelter, so the people on the carts are all wearing very warm clothes.
When the weather is at its coldest, even tree branches and roads will be covered with frost, making travel extremely difficult.
Therefore, even though it is only November, everyone has already started preparing the items needed for the New Year.
Someone mentioned Zhao Anan's name in the car.
"That girl is really stubborn. How long has it been since we saw young people voluntarily asking for a split?"
Another auntie immediately retorted: "If she was a little weaker, who knows how she would be bullied! Their family has forced them to the point where they have no way out."
Moreover, people in this era attach great importance to face. No matter how big the conflict is at home, they will still show that the family is harmonious in front of outsiders.
There is a common saying: A big tree will naturally branch out, which is also a natural phenomenon.
But those parents are used to holding power in the family, so how could they be willing to divide the family?
Before the family was divided, everyone listened to them, but once the family was divided, everyone had to work hard for their own family. This change was difficult to accept for the adults who were used to giving orders.
Therefore, they will use their status as patriarchs to control everyone in an attempt to maintain the original situation.
The woman was a victim of such a situation.
Her husband hopes that the whole family can support him and that he can still occupy the biggest decision-making position in the family and continue to play the role of head of the family.
But she was exhausted.
Life after the separation did not bring her the ease and freedom she had imagined.
Usually in such circumstances, the elderly will be taken home by their eldest son to be taken care of in their old age and enjoy a comfortable old age.
But the current situation is quite different from what was expected: the whole family is crowded into a few simple small houses, and as the elders in the family, they not only have to take care of the daily life of their grandchildren, but also have to keep an eye on the limited family expenses.
The daily work made her feel exhausted, to the point where she even felt tired to speak.
What’s even more annoying is that despite being physically and mentally exhausted, my ears are still filled with children’s complaints about trivial matters.
Therefore, on this exhausting day, in order to ease her tense nerves, she decided to take the bus into the city to relax.
Does anyone always say she's too stingy?
So take advantage of today's opportunity and allow yourself a little luxury!
After getting off the ox cart, Zhao Chunhua first brought Xiao Shitou to the clinic.
In wealthy families, it has become a custom to invite famous doctors to visit them regularly every month for diagnosis. Some families even hire private doctors to stay at home in case of emergency.
Although her financial situation did not allow her to hire a full-time doctor, she could still spend a few coins to have a doctor check her health condition.
"The child is in great shape, but you, Madam, need to pay attention to your emotional adjustment. Maintaining a cheerful attitude is very good for your health."
Then the doctor asked with concern, "Do I need to prescribe some medicine for you to properly regulate your condition?"
