These are the mushrooms that Cheng Fangyuan picked for nearly two weeks. When they are all dried, they will only form a small bag, weighing about 5 kilograms.
"Is it dried?"
"There is one dustpan that is not dry." Song Tanglan heard her second sister's cry and told the truth.
"Okay, let's have fried mushrooms tonight."
Song Tangcheng had just finished her confinement, and her temperament had changed a lot. She exuded maternal care, looked more eye-catching, and her figure had also become fuller.
The fat on my belly has recovered after this month, and the remaining fat is covered by clothes, so it is no longer visible.
"Okay, I like whatever my second sister cooks." Song Tanglan packed the mushrooms and put them back into the dry storage room, where a lot of things were piled up.
After just one look, she went back to continue looking after the little guy.
I don't know when the little guy fell asleep, and his sleeping posture was very well-behaved. I covered him with a small quilt and started reading a book next to him.
The little guy's full-day banquet will be in three days. Cheng Fangyuan has been running to the commune to buy meat these days, and he will invite relatives and friends to celebrate.
Song Tanglan wanted to prepare a meaningful full moon gift for Mumu, but after thinking of several things, none of them were suitable for him now, so she decided to seal three bottles of Moutai for him.
Just consider it a gift from her aunt.
Thinking that there would be a tractor going to the commune tomorrow, she decided to go to Su Tao. Should she go?
"Second sister, I'm going out for a while. Mumu is asleep."
"Okay, go ahead!"
Song Tanglan soon arrived at Su Tao's house. Su Tao did not go up the mountain today, but was at home showing off her recent harvest. She greeted the visitor happily when she saw him.
"Taotao, tomorrow is our day off and we have a tractor going to the commune. Do you want to go?"
"Go ahead, I just wanted to tell you about this. I need to go buy something."
"Okay, then let's go together tomorrow!" Song Tanglan smiled happily when she heard that she was going too.
After getting the answer I wanted, I went back home without staying long because there was a little kid waiting for me at home.
My second sister has to cook, and if the little one starts crying, she will definitely be too busy to handle it.
But she went back and checked on the little guy and found that he was not awake, so she tiptoed out of the room and went to the kitchen.
"Second sister, we're going to the commune tomorrow. Do you want to come with us?"
"Me? Forget it, I still have to breastfeed! When he grows up a little, I can leave him at home and go out." Song Tangcheng hasn't been to the commune for a long time. It's inconvenient during pregnancy.
Now that she has given birth and can't leave the child, I have no choice but to refuse.
"Okay, let's go together next time. What delicious food are you making?" Song Tanglan saw the disappointment in her second sister's eyes and couldn't bear to see her continue to be sad, so she changed the subject.
It is really hard for a new mother. If the baby is easy to take care of, it is not so difficult. But if the baby is difficult, it will be really hectic and you will have to squeeze out time for eating and sleeping.
But before Song Tangcheng could reply, Captain Cheng's voice came from outside the door.
When the two heard the shout, they were immediately confused.
Captain Chen rarely comes to visit. Even when he wants to see his youngest son, he asks Xiaohu to call him. It is quite rare for him to come to visit in person this time.
Song Tanglan went straight to open the door and let him in.
"Dad, come in and sit down." Song Tangcheng thought that Captain Cheng was here to see his little grandson, so he invited him in.
"I won't go in. There's your telegram at the post office. You need to pick it up tomorrow morning. Where's Xiaomu?"
"She just fell asleep. My younger sister has to go to the commune tomorrow. She can pick up the telegram then."
"Okay, your mother will cook red eggs tomorrow, and you can bring Xiaomu to play with her then." Captain Cheng was not very disappointed when he didn't see anyone, because he came to inform them about the telegram.
Generally, telegrams are sent when there is an urgent matter. As soon as the post office receives the telegram, it will notify the brigade. There is a hand-cranked telephone in the brigade, but it is only for public use and is generally not loaned out.
"Okay, I'll bring Mumu to your house when the time comes."
"I'll go back first. You guys go about your business." Captain Cheng left after seeing that the matter had been discussed.
After the gate was closed again, the two began to talk in confusion.
"Second sister, not many people know that we are in the countryside except our family. Why would they send a telegram? Is there something urgent?" Song Tanglan was confused now.
Generally, they contact their families by writing letters directly and rarely send telegrams. It is not only because telegram kits are expensive, but there is no need to waste this resource.
"I don't know either. They didn't tell me in the last letter from home!" Song Tangcheng was also confused.
It hadn't been long since they last contacted each other via letters, so why was it suddenly so urgent that they had to send a telegram?
"Did your family know you were out of confinement and send you a message to celebrate?"
When Song Tangcheng heard his little sister's idea, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"I really thought Mom would be such a spendthrift to Dad! She even sent a telegram to congratulate him."
Song Tanglan felt embarrassed when she heard this, thinking that Ms. Su He was a very frugal person in life. Although she would not be stingy with her family's food and drink expenses, she would never waste a penny other than that.
Not to mention her old father who held the financial power. He gave all his private money to her when she went to the countryside, so how could he have money to send telegrams to them?
"Don't let your imagination run wild. You'll know tomorrow. I'm going to go back to cooking and see if the little guy is awake. I just heard him groaning. He might have peed."
After hearing this, Song Tanglan didn't say anything more. She went back to the room and saw that the little guy was indeed awake. His big grape-like eyes were rolling around, and his little mouth was humming from time to time. When he saw Song Tanglan appear, he immediately started crying.
