"Okay, that's good, I didn't go out with the kids because I still had a few stitches left in my hand.

Why did it take you so long to come back? What's the matter, studying is very tiring and busy? ”

The old lady was holding a needle and thread in her hand, sewing the button, and just after sewing, she cut off the thread, so that she had time to talk to Qiaolian.

"Well, it's very busy and tiring, there are many patients in a day, and I am busy from morning to night, and I can't straighten my tired waist.

But it's true that I can learn a lot, and the doctor who took me is very good and conscientious.

I was assigned for minor surgeries and I was an assistant for major surgeries, so I really learned a lot. ”

Qiao Lian nodded, to be honest, it was really not easy at these times in Linjiang, but she also learned a lot of knowledge.

Although there are some surgeries that are useless when I come back, and the conditions of the health center are poor and cannot be done, Qiaolian is still happy.

"Okay, you can do it if you want, I don't understand this.

Anyway, you can rest assured at home, with me and the children here, you can study with peace of mind.

If you learn more skills, you will always be useful in the future. The old lady is full of support for Qiaolian's work.

Now Qiaolian can be said to be the most promising of the old lady's six children, and the old lady is too late to be happy, so she naturally tries to help as much as she can.

"It's not early, I'll cook, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat well over there, what do you want to eat at night?" Jiayuan and I will do it. ”

The old lady packed up her clothes and needlework, put them together on the cupboard, and then went down to the field to cook.

"Mother, no need, I'll do it, I'm not tired, I just brought back some food from Linjiang, and I made it at night."

How can Qiaolian still let the old lady cook?

She has been out for so long and the old lady has been at home, and she finally came back, how can she still let her mother serve her?

So she quickly changed her clothes, carried the things she had brought back into the kitchen, and began to prepare dinner.

When Qu Weiyang saw this, he immediately changed his clothes, washed his hands, and went into the kitchen to help.

"Jiayuan Yushu, you two don't have to go into the kitchen, help grandma watch the three little ones."

Qu Weiyang saw that Jiayuan and Yushu were also going to wash their hands and come over to help, so he quickly stopped the two of them.

He still has a lot to say to Qiao Lian, and besides, there are two people in the kitchen, so there is no need for too many people.

When Jiayuan and Yushu heard this, they didn't follow into the kitchen, and both of them went into the house to coax their younger brothers and sisters.

The couple washed vegetables and cut meat in the kitchen, chatting while working.

"I'm not at home during this time, what's going on at home? What's the matter? ”

Qiaolian let Qu Weiyang chop the ribs she bought, put it in the water tightly and fished out the foam, and here she scooped up a few sauerkraut and cut it, planning to stew the sauerkraut with the ribs at night.

"It's okay at home, it's not a big deal, the children are quite obedient.

Jiajun and the three got out of school early, and when they came back, the two sons helped coax the little ones, and Yushu helped cook.

Yushu, this kid is really good at work, very quick, and has your posture.

She helped my mother with the work, and by the time we came back from work, it was almost done. ”

"Jiayuan helps to wash the three small clothes at night, Jiajun Jiahe's, they wash themselves on Sundays, and sometimes Yushu or Jiayuan help wash them.

The children are sensible, and there is no need to worry about it at home. ”

Qu Weiyang was braising rice and rice, and he was also looking at the ribs in the pot.

When the water in the pot boils, quickly skim off the foam, take out the ribs and wash them again, then brush the pot and add water to stew again.

"There's nothing going on at home, it's all good, you just need to study with peace of mind.

At the health center, Xuemei and Yufen can also take care of it, these two children have been studying with you for more than a year, and they can do all kinds of problems.

By the way, Brother Han mentioned it to me that day, saying that his eldest had taken a fancy to Xuemei.

If you want to make peace and make peace, the key is to ask me what you mean.

Brother Han heard that you don't want those two girls to say goodbye too early. Qu Weiyang remembered Han Yunhong's request and hurriedly spoke.

"Brother Han's eldest brother? The one who works in the pharmaceutical factory in our county? That's a good guy, I've met twice.

The Han family is also a family that is passing through their lives, and it is said that these two children are compatible in terms of age and appearance.

But Xuemei has a bit of a talent for studying medicine, I mean, it's better not to get married too early.

It is not easy for a woman to continue her studies after she gets married. I am also a child who is older, and with your support and our mother's help, I have the time to study and further my studies. ”

"This matter is not in a hurry, the two children are not big, wait for the Chinese New Year when I come back, talk to Brother Qin and sister-in-law Qin first.

The key to this matter is Xuemei, if she takes a fancy to the boss of the Han family, then I can't mess around in it. ”

Xuemei is only an apprentice with Qiaolian, and she has the status of master and apprentice, and she is not Qiaolian's daughter.

She doesn't have that much right to decide Xuemei's lifelong affairs, and it has to be discussed by the Qin family themselves, so she can only give a proposal.

"What's going on in the commune? Is there enough food to eat?

I was on the other side of the river, and I heard that there were many places where the yield had been reduced a lot, and now there are many places where I eat cakes mixed with rice bran and bran.

On that day, I saw a child, and I couldn't pull it out after eating too much. ”

Qiaolian is outside, what she is most worried about is at home, I don't know how it is to eat at home?

"Well, our commune is okay, although the production has been reduced this year, but the yield of sweet potatoes is not low, and now it is a steamed wotou cake mixed with sweet potato noodles and acorn noodles.

However, the food ration supply is low again, and every household is counting on potatoes and pumpkins to fill it.

Anyway, I can deal with it, I heard when I go out, many places eat bran and rice bran, and some places eat food substitutes. ”

Qu Weiyang is outside all day long, and he is more well-informed, so he talks about the situation outside.

"Meal replacement? What's that? Qiao Lian was a little confused, not understanding what she was talking about.

"It's a substitute food, the bud bones, the bud skin, chopped and put in the pot, plus the soda boil.

Boil the starch, and then add some bud rice noodles and sweet potato noodles to steam cakes, which is called food substitute. Qu Weiyang patiently explained.

"In some places, elm bark and linden bark are peeled, dried and ground into powder, mixed with bud rice noodles and sweet potato noodles to eat.

However, there are still few places to eat food substitutes, and the main ones are rice bran mixed with bran. ”

Qiao Lian really didn't expect that people would be able to come up with so many ways when they were hungry.

She had heard of elm bark before, and when there was a famine, there were indeed people who ate elm bark.

But the bud rice bones boil starch, this is really unheard of, if you want to boil the bud rice bones so hard things, you must put a lot of alkali in it.

If people eat so much alkali in their bodies, it will be harmful to their health, and their bodies will be swollen and uncomfortable.

"Alas, these years have not been perfect, successive natural disasters, coupled with man-made disasters, the common people are having a hard time.

Fortunately, we saved up those points a few years ago, and we finally didn't suffer. ”

Qiao Lian sighed, no wonder the price of food in the black market is so high, food can save lives.
