Chapter 44 Chapter 45

"Grandma taught me, I learned it after two lessons." Xiaodouzi looked at Lin Lan with an expression on his face that was about to praise me.

Seeing that Lin Lan turned her head away from him, she thought that he had done something wrong, so she walked over anxiously and pulled Lin Lan's hand: "Mom, I'm good, I'm obedient."

"Mom knows that Dou Zi is an obedient baby!"

Lin Lan said softly, bent down and kissed him, and hugged him: "Honey, mom loves you, mom won't want you."

Xiaodouzi hugged her neck, leaned on her shoulder and let out a "wow", crying sadly.

Lin Lan patted his vest lightly: "Oh! Don't cry, mom loves Xiaodouzi the most, and my Xiaodouzi is the most obedient baby."

Xiaodouzi looked at her sobbing, "Mom, they said you don't want me anymore, you want to be someone else's mother. Xiaodouzi doesn't have a mother anymore, Xiaodouzi is a beggar, wow..."

Lin Lan was extremely angry and let her know who was talking nonsense in front of Xiaodouzi, she tore his mouth.

Gently patted his vest, and comforted him softly: "They lied to you, mother won't be a mother to others, how can other people's children be as good as my Xiaodouzi!"

"Stop crying, the baby told mom to be a smart and brave baby like Brother Haiwa! Next time who dares to talk nonsense, you can tell mom, and mom will tear him up."

"Yeah!" Xiaodouzi rubbed against Lin Lan's, "Mom, mom..."

Lin Lan hugged him and circled in the yard, comforting him softly, Xiaodouzi fell asleep in her arms sobbing, with tears still hanging from the corners of his eyes.

Lin Lan carried him into the house, put him on the bed, and covered him with a quilt.Go to the kitchen and open the money bag in the folder, pour the money inside on the bed, count and sell more than 20 except the change.

She calculated it and found that it was more than two yuan. It seems that Li Xiangyang sold it for twenty cents each.

If you can sell it for two cents each, the profit is a bit considerable.

After thinking about it, Lin Lan scooped up a large scoop of large white beans and half a scoop of red beans and poured them into the basin, and poured some hot water from the kettle to soak them.

Wash the remaining pieces of pickled radish and cut them into strips to dry in the Shau Kei, and then wash the bag containing the orchid beans before washing.

Lin Lan entered the room and looked at the sleeping Xiaodouzi, kissed his sleeping red face, gently picked him up and took off his pants.

The child woke up, rubbing his eyes and leaning against Lin Lan: "Mom, I want to pee."

"Okay!" Lin Lan put the clothes back on for her again: "Mom, take her to pee, and let's wash your face and brush your teeth by the way."

"Yeah!" Lin Lan carried him to the stove and stood on her feet, urinating in the dung bucket.

"Mom, I'm fine!"

"Okay!" Lin Lan carried him to a chair and sat down, poured water from a thermos bottle to wash his face, and looked at him with a smile: "Mom will buy you a baby book tomorrow."

Xiaodouzi looked at her with bright eyes: "Mom, doll books are so expensive!"

Lin Lan scratched the soles of his feet and looked at him with a smile: "Tell mom, do you want it?"

"I want to!" Xiaodouzi said loudly, "I want Monkey King."

"Okay, mom will buy it for you." Lin Lan said with a smile.

After washing up, the mother and son lay on the bed. Lin Lan patted him gently and told him about Journey to the West. Finally, listening to Xiaodouzi's even breathing, she also fell asleep.

Waking up early the next morning, the sky was gloomy, Lin Lan stuffed the radish from the Shau Kei into the kimchi jar, and started to reheat the leftovers from last night.

The mother and son had just eaten their meals, fed the pigs and chickens, and before they went out, it started to drizzle.

Lin Lan saw that the drizzle would not stop for a while, thinking that there was still cow grass in the cattle pen, and it would not be too late to cut it after the rain stopped, so she said to Xiaodouzi: "Mom will take you to the street to buy doll books go."

Xiaodouzi jumped up happily after hearing this, and said with a small mouth, "Mom, I'm going to get the umbrella."

"Be careful not to fall."

"Hey!" Xiaodouzi responded crisply, walking towards the room excitedly.

Lin Lan went to the backyard and opened the small door. Seeing the chickens huddled in the bamboo forest, she called them back and went to change into the rubber shoes.

Lin Lan came out with a backpack, and Xiaodouzi looked at her with an umbrella.

"Mom, I'm going by myself."

"It's raining, and your shoes will get wet when you walk by yourself. Wait until mom buys you small rubber shoes, and then you can walk by yourself."

"Oh!" Xiaodouzi responded.

Lin Lan put her son in her pocket, picked it up and said with a smile, "Let's go! Let's go to the street!"

Xiaodouzi waved at Dahuang: "Dahuang, take good care of your house, let's go to the street!"

Rhubarb wagged his tail and followed them to the gate of the courtyard.

Xiaodouzi pointed at it: "Dahuang, take good care of your home. My mother and I went to the street to buy doll books."

Rhubarb looked at the two of them and lay down at the gate of the courtyard.

The mother and son closed the door and walked in the silky rain and fog under the umbrella.

The drizzle hit the umbrella, making a rustling sound.

Lin Lan saw that on the ridge of the field, someone was wearing a bamboo hat, carrying a fish basket shaped like a small pot, and holding eel traps made of bamboo slices, and they were holding eels.

At this time, less pesticides are used, and there are many eel holes on the ridges of the seedling fields, and eels stick their heads out of the holes when it rains.

Lin Lan also followed her cousin to catch eels before.

The eel caught back was caught by the tail by the cousin, and after being knocked unconscious on the ground, it was pierced on the iron nail.

Straighten the eel, press the tail of the eel, cut it open with a sharp knife made from sawing skin, remove the eel bone and cut into sections, braise it with pickled pepper, garlic, and watercress in brown sauce, the taste is extremely delicious.

Xiaodouzi lay on her shoulders, chattering and slipping quietly, Lin Lan nodded from time to time, and the mother and son turned into the alleyway under umbrellas.

On the street, Lin Lan saw that there were still very few pedestrians on this street, and there were still many pedestrians on the hospital street.

She looked at the area opposite the hospital, and thought that if she opened a porridge shop here in the future, the business should be good.

After walking for more than ten meters, I saw a car repair shop. Some bald car repair masters sat on chairs with their legs crossed, holding a tea mug.There is a radio on the high stool next to it, and the Sichuan Opera Red Lantern is playing on the radio.

Lin Lan turned to the right with Xiaodouzi on her back, walked straight down two streets, and there were more people on the street.The people who come and go are only dressed in white, blue, gray, and black, and there is no red, purple, yellow, or green.

After crossing a street, I saw Xinhua Bookstore. At the door of the bookstore, she put Xiaodouzi out of the clip, shook the rain from the umbrella, and led him in.

When I walked into the bookstore, I found that the bookstore was very large, with four stores, but there was no one there because of the rain.The two salesgirls sat there, glanced at the mother and son, and didn't even bother to ask.

Xiaodouzi looked curiously at the pictures on the wall of the bookstore.

Lin Lan remembered that all the doll books were sold at the counter at this time, and sure enough, there were two volumes of "Chicken Feather Letter" on a counter in the corner.

There is really Sun Wukong, there are two volumes of "Somersault Cloud", which are still printed in color, and there are also "Tunnel Warfare", "Landmine Warfare"...

Lin Lan recalled that when she was a child, the child with doll books at home was the object of all the children on the team.

After going to school, she also bought Journey to the West, Yang Jiajiang, Grandpa Changmei and Ginseng Dolls... many doll books were exchanged with classmates at school.
