"Then I'll go chop down some trees right now. I'll make as many as you want!"
"What are you so happy about? The cut tree is still wet and can't be used." Jiang Wanqiao couldn't help laughing when she saw him like this.
Lu Daqiao thought the same thing and said, "I'll take down some old wooden planks that are no longer needed at home and nail them together to make a box."
"Not now, go and have a rest, you still have to work in the afternoon."
"Qiao Qiao, I'm not tired." Lu Daqiao glanced at An An who was dozing off in Jiang Wanqiao's arms.
"An An is sleepy. Let me carry you to bed." Lu Daqiao said as he was about to pick up the child.
"The child needs to sleep, and you need to sleep too. Let's go inside together."
Jiang Wanqiao glanced at him, and Lu Daqiao grinned and followed him into the house obediently.
My wife felt sorry for me and was afraid that I was tired, so she told me to go to sleep.
Putting the child in the middle, the family of three lay down and took a nap.
After everyone went to work, Jiang Wanqiao went to Xu Zhiyi with the child in her arms and a small basket.
Xu Zhiyi is preparing medicinal materials at home, and will use them to make medicine after they are prepared.
The gate of the courtyard was ajar, so that Pei Yan could come to see her whenever he wanted.
There are basically no unfamiliar people coming to her place, and the geese in the yard are not vegetarians.
Once someone comes, the three of them will bark happily.
An active and responsible guard goose.
When Jiang Wanqiao arrived, she saw the door was ajar and called out, "Zhiyi, are you home?"
Xu Zhiyi first heard someone calling her, and then she heard the geese in the yard start to cack.
When Xu Zhiyi came out of the pharmacy, he saw Jiang Wanqiao standing at the door.
Xu Zhiyi chased away the goose that was about to come forward and said, "Wanqiao, you're here, come in quickly."
Jiang Wanqiao held An An in her arms, as if she was meeting Xu Zhiyi for the first time, looking at Xu Zhiyi with her big round eyes.
He was still babbling.
Xu Zhiyi brought Jiang Wanqiao under the grape tree, asked her to sit on a stone bench, and poured her a cup of red date tea.
This was the second time Xu Zhiyi had seen An An. The first time he saw her, she was just a few days old and hadn't grown up yet. How could she be so cute?
"Your child is so cute, what's his name?"
Jiang Wanqiao was holding the child. When she heard Xu Zhiyi praising her child, she was naturally happy. "His name is Lu An. We usually call him An An. I hope he can be safe and healthy."
People in the village like to give their children vulgar names, saying that the vulgarier the name, the easier it is to raise them.
There are quite a few names like Goudan, Tiedan, and Gouzi in every village.
Fortunately, Jiang Wanqiao didn't think of giving her child such a name. In Xu Zhiyi's opinion, if the child grows up, it will definitely be a dark history for the child.
It's too hard to say it out loud.
"An An is so cute. You guys raised the child so well."
Jiang Wanqiao saw Xu Zhiyi chatting with her around the child without feeling strange at all, and slowly let go of her emotions.
She had always felt that Xu Zhiyi was a very independent-minded woman when she was at the educated youth camp. Even though she had help from her family, she never complained or felt tired.
We moved out of the educated youth camp as soon as we could, rented land and built a house. We did it in a hurry and quickly.
This well-built house and well-maintained yard are much better than most houses in the village.
The farmyard is leisurely and has a unique charm.
"Zhiyi, do you want to hug An An?"
Seeing Xu Zhiyi being so friendly, Jiang Wanqiao couldn't help but feel a lot more at ease.
Xu Zhiyi saw Jiang Wanqiao's sincere look and refused repeatedly.
"I'm too strong. I'm afraid I can't stop. No, no." Xu Zhiyi waved his hands repeatedly.
Seeing Xu Zhiyi's face full of resistance, Jiang Wanqiao chuckled as if she had seen a ferocious beast. "Zhiyi, you're not afraid of wild boars normally, so why are you afraid of such a small child?"
"How can that be the same? If you encounter a wild boar, the worst that can happen is that you have to use your strength. An An has such small arms and legs, I really don't dare to touch him."
Having said that, he couldn't help but raise his hand and pinch the chubby baby fat on An An's face.
"By the way, Wan Qiao, is there anything you want to talk to me about?" Xu Zhiyi asked.
"I haven't come to see you in a long time. I didn't come to congratulate you when you got into college. You can eat the eggs in the basket. My mother-in-law also made some steamed rice cakes. They are delicious. I sent them to you to try."
Jiang Wanqiao felt a little embarrassed. To be honest, she came to her because she had something to ask her.
When Xu Zhiyi saw her like this, a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.
"Wan Qiao, did something happen to you?"
Jiang Wanqiao shook her head. "No, no, I...I just don't quite understand something and I want to ask you for advice."
Xu Zhiyi noticed that she hadn't shown any sign of anxiety since she entered the yard, so it seemed like it wasn't a big deal.
"What don't you understand? Tell me." Xu Zhiyi's expression was gentle, without showing any other unusual emotions.
"I want to ask you, do you know how to raise earthworms? I'm thinking that if I feed earthworms to my chickens, they might lay more eggs."
The chickens we raise at home nowadays do not lay eggs every day. Sometimes they lay an egg every other day, and sometimes they lay an egg every two or three days.
"Raising earthworms?"
Xu Zhiyi didn't expect that Jiang Wanqiao came to her to ask her such a question.
"Yes, I wanted to ask if you know how to do it. If you haven't heard of it, forget it. I'll go to the city someday to see if there are any relevant books."
Raising earthworms was something that people did on a large scale in the past, before the end of the world. They just bought them for use as medicinal materials.
