"Although living conditions in Hongxing Village are not harsh, there are many inconveniences. We have gas in the compound, but Hongxing Village doesn't have it. We rely on wood stoves, which makes cooking a little more difficult."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded in understanding. "The children are older now, so make more yam cakes for them. Don't make anything too tonic, just warming foods. Yams can be used to make soups or stir-fries."
"Okay, Comrade Zhong, I've taken note of this. I'll remind Feng Zheng to make more yam cakes in the future." Wang Daya agreed, but since she didn't make it herself, she didn't accept the benefit.
"Feng Zheng can make a lot of snacks. In the future, let him think more about warming and nourishing cakes and soups. Our family members are healthy and don't need big supplements. Appropriate warming and nourishing food to provide the body's consumption function will be enough." What is consumed can be slowly replenished with warming food, that's it.
People say that food supplements are worse than medicine supplements; medicine is more or less toxic, but there is no such worry about food supplements. As long as they are used correctly, they can really regulate the body.
Wang Daya did not respond. Zhong Yuxiu said, "That's all for now. The children must have minced meat and egg custard every day. I also need to make them yam cakes with different flavors. Remember these points."
"yes."
"Go and get busy." Zhong Yuxiu waved her hand and asked them to leave.
Wang Daya did not go to the kitchen, but went to the room where they lived. The three children were sleeping on the small beds in their room. Four or five hours had passed and they still had not woken up. She had to go and check on them from time to time.
When Wang Daya walked into the room, she saw Li Ji, Li Ming and Li Zhen crawling around in the small bed. They seemed very unfamiliar with the small bed, as if they had not remembered sleeping in it before.
"Ah." Li Zhen raised his head and spotted Wang Daya at the first moment. He recognized this person, so he naturally greeted her with "Ah."
Li Ji and Li Ming ignored Li Zhen, as if they hadn't heard anything.
Wang Daya walked to the crib, picked up Li Zhen, and wiped the saliva off his face. "What a good boy! He didn't cry when he woke up. He played by himself."
"oh!"
Li Zhen leaned back and fell backwards.
Wang Daya quickly pulled the person into her arms and said, "Are you hungry? The kitchen is warming up the minced meat and egg custard for you. Let's go out to eat, okay?" It was Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi's job to properly induce them to talk.
If a child does not have someone to guide him in speaking, he will start speaking later. Li Ji, Li Ming and Li Zhen are one year old now and can pronounce simple words but they cannot speak clearly.
"Let's go out and eat minced meat and egg custard." Li Zhen was put into the crib, and Wang Daya pushed the crib out of the room.
Zhong Yuxiu heard the noise and turned to look, "Are the children awake?"
"Yes, Comrade Zhong, Li Ji, Li Zhen, and Li Ming are all awake. They were playing when I came in. They're the most obedient and easy-going of the children I care for. They only whimper when they're hungry or wet, but rarely cry." Wang Daya spoke sincerely, and Zhong Yuxiu nodded. "Push them over here. I'll watch them while you bring their complementary food. Call Comrade Gong over too, and we'll feed the children first."
Wang Daya nodded in agreement and walked the child to the sofa where she was sitting. "Thank you, Comrade Zhong."
Zhong Yuxiu shook her head. Why should she thank her own child for his help?
Wang Daya turned and went to the kitchen. After a while, she and Gong Zhaodi each brought a small tray and placed it on the coffee table. There were three bowls of complementary food on each tray. Wang Daya's tray contained minced meat, and Gong Zhaodi's tray contained egg custard. There were only three spoons.
"Comrade Zhong, can you please feed Liji? Liji eats very well and doesn't move around."
"Okay." She responded, leaned over to get a bowl of egg custard and placed it in front of her, then stood up and took Li Ji out of the crib; she sat sideways and the child was taken by a pair of big hands. She glanced sideways and saw the man next to her speaking expressionlessly.
"Let me hold him. This kid is good-looking and strangely heavy."
Knowing he was jealous, she didn't want to argue with him. She picked up the bowl and spooned it across the smooth egg custard. After scraping off a small piece of egg custard, Zhong Yuxiu scooped it up with the spoon and put it to her son's mouth, "Here, eat the egg custard. It's tender, smooth and fragrant."
Li Ji took a bite and it was fragrant and tasted good. Li Ji smiled.
"Ah, yeah." He clearly meant "yes", but his speech was unclear and he managed to say something else.
The eldest son's chubby face was full of smiles, his eyes fixed on the egg bowl. Zhong Yuxiu couldn't help laughing. She put the spoon in the bowl and gently stroked her eldest son's cheek with her slightly bent index finger.
"Little greedy cat."
"Woo woo."
Li Ji shook his head and didn't want her to touch him.
Zhong Yuxiu insisted on touching her eldest son a few more times, and when her eldest son was about to get angry, she calmed down and tried to appease him with egg custard. The little guy forgot his anger as soon as he saw the egg custard, and ate it in big mouthfuls with a smile on his face.
While feeding the child egg custard, he looked up at Yan Rushan and said, "This child is easy to coax and feed."
"When I was little, I was even more obedient than them." Yan Rushan was somewhat jealous that his eldest son in his arms could be treated so tenderly by his wife. "My parents used to say that I was easy to raise, unlike Xiaohai who cries at the slightest provocation."
Zhong Yuxiu squinted at him, believing his words only 80% of the time. "I have to ask Grandpa about these things you said."
"What do you need to ask me?"
The couple looked in the direction of the voice at the same time, and saw two gray-haired old men following Yan Guofeng. Since Yan Guofeng took the repair fluid, his hair was no longer completely white as before, but half of it had turned black again, which was evidence that his body had recovered and was getting better and better.
"Grandpa." Yan Rushan stood up to greet him. "Grandpa Wu, Grandpa Cheng, you two are here too. Please come in."
"Sure, sure." One of the old men nodded, smiling broadly. The other, unwilling to be outdone, turned his gaze to Zhong Yuxiu and said, "This is your granddaughter-in-law, Comrade Zhong Yuxiu, right?"
Zhong Yuxiu greeted with a smile, "Hello, two old gentlemen. I'm sorry that I can't stand up and greet you two right now."
"It's okay." The two old men waved their hands.
Yan Guofeng said, "Yuxiu, you feed the children and don't worry about them."
"Yes, yes, Yuxiu, feed the child. We'll talk to your grandfather and then leave."
"You're just saying this and it's chilling. Now that we're here, shouldn't we have dinner before we leave?" Without giving them a chance to refuse, he added, "You don't know, my Dashan family hired a chef to make sure my grandson's wife and I eat well. His cooking is incredible. His braised pork is even more authentic than the one made by the chef in the army cafeteria, and it's even more delicious. It's soft but not mushy, sweet but not greasy, and the flavor is divine."
The two old men didn't want to refuse. "Okay, then stay for dinner. You old man went out and didn't come back. We wanted to go look for you, but your grandchildren and sons wouldn't allow us to. And you didn't even come back to talk to us."
"That is, is there anyone to chat with you when you are alone over there?"
