Xing’an Mountains 1984: Starting from climbing mountains to support the family
Chapter 244 The little girl is so sweet
Chapter 244 The little girl is so sweet
Chen Weidong raises dogs. He lets them watch over the farm behind the house at night and often lets them out for some fresh air during the day. When Chen Weidong is not at home, the dogs in the farm will not be locked up and generally will not run around.
Chen Weidong was not worried about their safety. These dogs would be bullies even in the mountains, not to mention in the village.
Sometimes, we even go to the nearby hills to catch some rabbits and pheasants.
Moreover, hunting dogs generally only eat food from their owners and people they are very familiar with, and will not eat food fed by strangers.
Therefore, Chen Weidong is not worried about their safety.
Chen Weidong stroked the two golden eagles again and cultivated a relationship with them. Even though the golden eagles were raised from childhood, they are the overlords of the sky and yearn for freedom by nature. If they are not treated well, they may fly away.
After returning to the yard and washing his hands, Chen Weidong started cooking.
Liu Xueting also came over to help. Chen Weidong first stewed a pot of bacon, and then steamed the buns. There were two or three pounds of fresh meat at home.
Chen Weidong cut three pounds of pork belly into small cubes. Then he lit the pot and put the meat cubes into the pot to blanch.
After heating the pot, Chen Weidong scooped a spoonful of oil, waited for the oil to melt, turned to medium heat, and added rock sugar.
Fry slowly until the rock sugar melts and changes color to maroon, and the big bubbles in the oil turn into small bubbles. When the small bubbles are almost gone, the sugar color is ready.
Immediately add the blanched pork belly and stir-fry quickly to coat the surface of the meat with sugar color.
Then add cooking wine, soy sauce, scallions and ginger slices and stir-fry evenly, add appropriate amount of water to cover the pork belly,
After boiling over high heat, cover the pot and simmer slowly.
“dad!”
“Dad, you’re home!”
After a while, Da Ni and Er Ni came back with their younger sisters carrying their small schoolbags.
“Well, Dani, Erni, you’re back from school!”
Chen Weidong picked up Da Ni and Er Ni and kissed the two little girls hard on their cheeks.
“Da Ni, Er Ni, do you miss your daddy?”
“I want to ~ I want to dream about it!”
“Xue Ting, listen, this little girl is so sweet! She even dreams about it, haha…”
Chen Weidong was very happy.
“Daddy, I want a kiss too! You didn’t even kiss us just now.”
“I also want……”
“I also want!”
“Okay, stop making trouble. Dad brought some delicious food from Jiangning this time. Go and have a taste. It’s in the bedroom.”
“Don’t eat too much, eat later!” Liu Xueting rolled her eyes at Chen Weidong and reminded him.
“Ok!”
The little girls panted and ran into the room with their short legs to find food.
……
Soon, my eldest brother’s family, as well as my father and mother, came over.
Yang Xuehua, Wu Xiuqin, and Liu Xueting were busy in the kitchen, while Chen Weidong was kicked out.
Chen Weidong went to work in the back house again. When the house was first built, he considered using this place as a warehouse, so he left a door opening to the outside.
There are four back houses, and Chen Weidong used three of them as warehouses.
Moreover, in the inner room on the east side, Chen Weidong also asked Carpenter Liu to help build a few shelves and cabinets!
This is where some dried medicinal materials can be stored for easy ventilation. Chen Weidong is sorting things out in the warehouse.
Chen Guangtian was touring the courtyard. Since Chen Weidong’s house was built, he had not had time to come and see it because Chen Weidong went to Jiangning.
Chen Guangtian couldn’t help but feel proud of his son. He built such a large courtyard and led the village to set up a pig-raising cooperative. Now whenever Chen Guangtian was in the village, he felt proud and confident.
“Dad, I heard from mom that when you have nothing to do, you go to the pig farming cooperative to help out. Dad, the pig farming cooperative doesn’t pay you, and people will think we are just nepotism when they see us. If you feel like you have nothing to do, you can help me take care of the kids and your granddaughters.”
Chen Weidong then spoke seriously.
“You little brat, you actually know how to assign work to me! The fields at home haven’t been planted yet, and I’m just taking some time off these two days to help your brother. If you guys wanted me to go at other times, I wouldn’t want to go!” Chen Guangtian scolded with a smile.
“That’s good. You and my mom are old, so don’t tire yourself out!”
After Chen Weidong finished speaking, he entered the yard from the back door. After entering the yard, Chen Weidong turned his head to look at the back door of the warehouse and felt something was wrong.
The gate of Chen Weidong’s courtyard is located in the southeast corner, followed by a row of four back houses.
Chen Weidong kept a house in the southwest corner to be used as a falcon training room. The back door leading into the yard from the warehouse was in the middle room.
This means that the back door of the warehouse faces the middle of the yard, so there is no privacy in one’s yard.
No wonder, I had always felt something was wrong, but I had never figured out what was wrong. “What are you looking at?”
After Chen Guangtian saw Chen Weidong coming out of the warehouse, he stopped and looked around.
“This door is not open correctly!”
Chen Weidong said.
Chen Guangtian looked around and nodded, saying, “That’s definitely not right! You shouldn’t have left the back door in this position!”
“When I get back, I’ll get someone to block this door!”
Chen Weidong said.
“If you block the door, you might as well build a wall here and build a hanging flower door.
“In this way, the yard is divided into the front yard and the back yard.”
Chen Weidong thought about it for a while, nodded and said with a smile: “Alright, then my courtyard house will also become a two-story courtyard house!”
“Dad, Weidong! What are you doing?”
Chen Weihai came out of the house and saw Chen Weidong and his old man standing behind the back house, talking about something.
“We are considering adding a wall here and building a hanging flower gate.”
Chen Weidong repeated what his father had just said.
“Brother, how is the pig farming cooperative going?”
“It’s all good now. After breeding, we now have two old sows that are pregnant!”
Chen Weihai said this, and then said to his father: “Dad, Uncle Guofu is here too, and he is in the main room now, why don’t you go over and talk to him?”
“Your Uncle Guofu is here. Okay, I’ll be there right away!” After saying this, Chen Guangtian stopped worrying about Chen Weidong’s affairs and walked straight into the main hall.
Chen Weidong chatted with Chen Weihai for a few words and then walked into the kitchen.
Sister-in-law Yang Xuehua, Wu Xiuqin, and Liu Xueting were all talking in the kitchen, while Dani and Erni were picking vegetables with the little girls.
When they saw Chen Weidong coming, they all greeted him with a smile.
“Is there any work I can do?” Chen Weidong asked with a smile.
“No more, don’t stretch out your hands, just leave it to us girls, just go into the house and chat with them!”
Sister-in-law Yang Xuehua said.
“Weidong, you act recklessly!” Without waiting for Chen Weidong to speak, Chen Weihai chased after him.
“What’s wrong?”
“What’s wrong?
The hanging flower door our dad was talking about is totally unreliable!
See for yourself, even if you build a hanging flower door, your back door and the hanging flower door are still in line.
Isn’t it still impossible to stop anything?” Chen Weidong thought about it and realized that it was true.
Unexpectedly, I didn’t think about it a little less at the beginning, and the result turned out to be like this. Although it wouldn’t affect anything, it was somewhat awkward.
After standing in the yard and thinking about it for a while, it seemed more reliable to just block the back door.
In this way, the inverted house can no longer be called an inverted house and should be called a south room, but at least the privacy in the yard is guaranteed.
After thinking about it for a while, I decided to just ignore it.
Today, he had just returned home and the family was having dinner together. It was not the time to deal with this matter, so Chen Weidong and his eldest brother Chen Weihai walked into the main room together.
Of the five rooms in the north of Chen Weidong’s house, the three rooms on the east side are one bright and two dark, and the two rooms on the west side are one bright and one dark. The middle room of the three rooms on the east side is a bright room, and the two rooms on both sides are dark rooms.
The bright one in the middle and the dark one in the west are connected together, making it one large room.
The bright room is the main room, and the dark room connected to the west is the dining room.
Once you enter the main room, there is a long table against the north wall, and underneath the table is an eight-person table.
There are two armchairs on both sides of the Eight Immortals Table, and four more armchairs below it, and two coffee tables, placed on both sides.
This is the most luxurious furnishing of this era.
Although Chen Weidong didn’t like it, everyone thought it looked grand and bright, so he followed Carpenter Liu’s advice and did it this way…
