The Orphan's Counterattack in the 1970s

Chapter 109 Ginseng Chicken Soup

"Then why don't we make a personal ginseng chicken soup tonight to replenish our body? It's really hard for you to take care of your children at home during this period." Yu Youyin looked at the chubby daughter-in-law who had finally raised weight and lost weight again. It happened to be that she got so many ginseng today. , I simply made my own ginseng chicken soup to replenish my daughter-in-law.

"Then let's all make up for it. You have lost a lot of weight during the autumn harvest." Chen Xiaolin did not participate in the autumn harvest this year because she had to take care of her children. In previous years, she also had to go to the fields for the autumn harvest. She needed to rest for several days after each autumn harvest. The genius slowed down.

"Then I'll go up the mountain to get a pheasant and come back later. I've also packed up these ginseng and just put them in the backyard to dry. You go back to your room and read for a while. You won't be free when the baby wakes up."

Yu Youyin prepared all the medicinal materials he dug up, and then went up the mountain with a basket and a hatchet on his back. Today he planned to go up the mountain to find a place to cut dry firewood. With three more children this year, he would need more firewood. .

Chen Xiaolin waited for the three children to wake up, cleaned them up, and then prepared milk powder to feed them.

The milk powder that the triplets drank was bought by Chen Xiaolin from a blind box in space. She secretly replaced the milk powder that Yu Youyin usually bought.

She usually goes to the county town when she has time, and then secretly takes out the milk powder and pretends that she bought it from the black market.

The triplets stopped breastfeeding after six months. In the past four months, they drank almost fifty cans of milk powder alone. Fortunately, Chen Xiaolin had it in her space, otherwise buying milk powder alone would have cost a lot of money.

"Baby, be good, stop crying, give me a hug, mom." Just now, the third child, Chen Haowei, accidentally kicked the second child, Chen Yingbao, in the face, and the delicate second child immediately started crying non-stop.

Chen Haowei seemed to know that he was in trouble, and he also began to cry. In the end, the eldest brother saw his younger brother and sister crying, and he cried too. The three children cried together, and the crying almost lifted the tiles.

"Xiao Lin, what's wrong with the triplets? Why are they crying so loudly?" Grandma Chen was pickling sauerkraut next door and ran over when she heard the cries of the three children.

"Grandma, come and help me. The three babies are crying together, and my ears are going deaf." When Chen Xiaolin saw Grandma Chen, she seemed to have seen a savior. Grandma Chen usually helped her, and she didn't find it so difficult to have triplets. bring.

"If the baby doesn't cry, grandma will give you a hug. Grandma will take you out to play." Grandma Chen held the second and third children in her arms and coaxed them while walking out.

Chen Xiaolin was extremely depressed. Why was she not so obedient when she hugged her? Grandma Chen stopped crying when she hugged her.

After the second and third children were coaxed by Grandma Chen, the eldest child in Chen Xiaolin's arms could be coaxed easily and stopped crying after a few words of coaxing.

"Grandma, you are still awesome. If you ask me to coax a few of them at once, I really can't do anything about them." Normally, Grandma Chen helps take care of them during the day, and Yu Youyin takes care of them at night. Chen Xiaolin has never taken care of triplets alone. .

"It would be better if they were older. You usually have to coax the second child first. As long as the second child stops crying, the other two will stop crying." Grandma Chen has long discovered that the second child among the triplets is the most delicate. . She cries at every turn, but as long as she is coaxed, the other two will stop crying.

Grandma Chen saw that her granddaughter really couldn't handle three children, so she didn't go back to pickle sauerkraut. Anyway, her daughter-in-law was at home, so she didn't need herself.

Yu Youyin, who was chopping firewood in the mountains, was not worried about his wife taking care of the children alone at home. He chopped a load of firewood as quickly as possible, shot a pheasant nearby and rushed home.

It wasn't until he returned home and heard the laughter of several children at home that he breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the three children did not cry non-stop, otherwise he would be really worried about going out to work in the future.

The four mother and son, who were worried by Yu Youyin, were happily eating egg custard.

Ever since the triplets started eating complementary food, Chen Xiaolin no longer had to worry about running out of eggs in her space.

Steaming five or six eggs every day was not enough, and of course most of them went into Chen Xiaolin's mouth.

The eggs laid by chickens that grew up drinking Lingquan water are very fragrant.

"Baby, are the eggs delicious?" Chen Xiaolin took turns feeding each one. The triplets ate so fast that she almost couldn't feed them.

When the triplets heard their mother's words, they all opened their mouths and wanted to eat. The second child, Chen Yingbao, even reached out to grab it.

"Chen Yingbao, don't move around, or I won't feed you. Xiaozhe and Xiaowei are better behaved. If you don't behave, Yingbao, I will spank you."

"Don't bully our sweetheart and ask you to feed your child an egg custard. In the end, you will eat more than them." Grandma Chen walked out of the kitchen just in time to see her granddaughter stuffing the egg custard into her mouth. She felt sad in her heart. It's so annoying and funny, Xiaolin is such a big person, why is she still fighting for food with her own children.

"Grandma, you haven't loved me since the triplets were born."

"How old are you? Why are you still competing with your children for favor?"

"I am your granddaughter no matter how old I am, you can't be partial."

Chen Xiaolin has been very fond of acting coquettishly since she gave birth to her child, especially in front of Grandma Chen. She really is Chen Sansui.

"Why don't you hurry up and feed the triplets? Youyindu is back and they can eat soon."

When Grandma Chen saw Yu Youyin coming back, she remembered that there was still food cooking in the pot, so she hurried back to the kitchen to turn over the pot. Fortunately, it wasn't burnt yet, otherwise the food wouldn't taste good today.

After Chen Xiaolin washed her hands, she gave him the bowl in her hand and asked him to continue feeding the triplets. She would rather help in the kitchen than feed the children.

Yu Youyin could only take over Chen Xiaolin's job and continue to feed the triplets custard.

After lunch, Yu Youyin started killing pheasants. Although the pheasants he got back today were not very big, they were enough to feed the three of them.

Stewing chicken soup takes a lot of work. He starts simmering it at three o'clock in the afternoon, and waits until almost five o'clock to get the chicken soup out of the pot.

Grandma Chen originally thought it was just chicken soup, but when she opened the pot and saw the ginseng tendrils inside, she was shocked.

"There is silver. Could it be that the tree roots inside are ginseng?"

"Grandma, don't worry about what the roots are. Just drink more if you like. You've worked hard to help us take care of the children." Yu Youyin didn't want to hide it from Grandma Chen, but she was quite frugal. She must have been heartbroken after eating ginseng.

"Don't try to fool me, I still know ginseng." When Grandma Chen first married Grandpa Chen, she was lucky enough to see ginseng at the landlord's house. To this day, she still remembers the appearance of the ginseng.

"Grandma, we still have a lot of this stuff at home. Don't worry, the only ones in it are small ginseng that are more than 20 years old." Chen Xiaolin really doesn't think ginseng is so rare, even if Yu Youyin doesn't dig it back There are a few ginseng trees in her space, and there are also a lot of ginseng in her space. Those few ginseng trees back then have now grown into a large area, and the ginseng trees are quite old. The largest one is now almost two hundred years old.
