Chapter 107 Chapter 107

The next day, Lin Lan put Xiaodouzi on a newly made blue navy shirt with white top and bottom, and led him out of the room.

Xiaodouzi walked up to Lin Yuezhen with her small chest upright, showing off to her: "Auntie, do I look good?"

Lin Yuezhen nodded and gave a thumbs up.

"Auntie, I've signed up." Xiaokai and the second sister, Xiaomei, ran into the yard and saw Xiaodouzi wearing new clothes, and said enviously, "The navy suit Xiaodouzi is wearing today is so beautiful!"

"Xiaodouzi is also pretty." Xiaomei added.

Xiaodouzi was a little shy: "Mom and aunt made it for me."

Xiaokai took him by the hand: "Let's go! Let's go to school."

Lin Lan followed the three bouncing children with a smile, and Rhubarb scurried back and forth in front of the three.

Walking to Xiaoqiao, Xiaomei looked back at Lin Lan: "Auntie, Xiaodouzi needs a scientific name to go to school, and he can't be called Xiaodouzi anymore. Does he have a scientific name?"

Xiaodouzi ran back: "Mom, do I have a scientific name?"

"Yes!" Lin Lan nodded with a smile, "Your name is Yang Xiaoguo."

Xiao Kai laughed after hearing this: "Yang Xiaoguo, Xiao Guozi."

Xiaomei smiled and patted Xiaodouzi's head: "Xiaodouzi, Yang Xiaoguo is also very nice."

The three of them talked, and arrived at the school of the second team. The layout of the school was similar to that of Shi Lian's brigade, like a big courtyard.

After entering the school gate, the gate is facing a large platform 1.5 meters above the ground. A red flag is planted on the flagpole. There are several desks in the playground, and the children are queuing up to sign up.

Xiaokai dragged Xiaodouzi to a sweet-looking female teacher in her twenties: "Mr. Zheng, my cousin Yang Xiaoguo wants to sign up."

"Handsome little Haijun, did you come here by yourself?" Mr. Zheng laughed.

Xiaodouzi said generously, "Mom came with me."

Lin Lan stepped forward with a smile: "Mr. Zheng, I asked about it last month. This is my son Yang Xiaoguo."

Teacher Zheng nodded and looked at Xiaodouzi with a smile: "Yang Xiaoguo is a cute kid, tell the teacher, can you count?"

Xiaodouzi stood upright and said: "Yes, I can count! 1, 2, 3..."

Teacher Zheng heard him count to fifty in one breath, and interrupted him with a smile: "Yes, you are a smart boy, the teacher accepts you."

Xiaodouzi happily pulled Xiao Kai up and down.

There are no big or small classes in the kindergarten class, and the tuition fee is three yuan. Lin Lan saw that only a dozen children signed up for the two teams together.

After registering Xiaodouzi's name and parents' names, Lin Lan paid tuition fees, and Xiaodouzi said goodbye to Teacher Zheng happily.

On the way back, Xiaokai and Xiaomei said that they would come to school every day to call Xiaodouzi and bring him back after school.

Lin Lan asked the children not to play by the canal, and the children nodded repeatedly.

The next day, Xiaodouzi got up without being called and put on new clothes. After eating, she put on her schoolbag and looked at Lin Lan happily: "Mom, brother Kai and sister Mei went to school with me."

Lin Lan froze for a moment: "Oh! Don't you want your mother to send you?"

"No, they all went by themselves."

Lin Lan didn't stay at home as Lin Lan imagined, and he didn't ask her to see him off. Xiao Douding happily followed Xiao Kai and Xiao Mei who came to pick him up to school.

Lin Lan and Lin Yuezhen were dumbfounded: "Sister, let me take a look."

Lin Yuezhen nodded and gestured for her to go quickly.

Lin Lan quietly followed all the way, seeing the three of them chattering and laughing along the way, and entered the school with their friends from the team, and then returned home with peace of mind.

In the afternoon, Lin Yuezhen went to school early to wait, Xiaodouzi told her not to wait in the future, he waited for Xiaokai and the others to come back after school.

Originally thought that he started going to school because of the novelty, so he was so obedient.

Unexpectedly, after two weeks in a row, she was still the same obedient.

After school, I would do my homework, and after finishing my homework, I would go to the bamboo forest to feed the chickens. Lin Lan never had to worry about it.

Lin Lan was both happy and disappointed. In the past, she often heard her little sister say that her child didn't want to go to kindergarten, so she hugged her after school and didn't let her go.

Thinking of this, Lin Lan sighed: My baby is too sensible, how can I break it!
There are more and more sea peppers in the vegetable field these days, and it's time to make watercress.

Lin Lan and Lin Yuezhen peeled the bean paste, picked pumpkin leaves and began to cover the moldy bean paste to make bean paste.

Divide the soaked peas into two pieces, wash them with warm water, remove and dry the water, put two layers of pumpkin leaves under the dustpan, spread the watercress evenly on the pumpkin leaves, and then cover several layers of pumpkin leaves thickly on the watercress .

Put it in a cool dry place and wait for it to ferment.

After four or five days, the moldy Douban will be covered with yellowish-green mildew. The color of the mildew is a bit like the color of the incense used for sacrificial offerings.

Lin Lan went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a large jar that could hold fifty catties and brought it home. After scalding it with boiling water, she put it in the courtyard dam to sterilize it in the sun.

Remove the pumpkin leaves and dry them in the sun. Pour white wine, rapeseed oil, and prickly ash noodles into a big jar, mix well, cover with gauze and put them in the courtyard for a few days.

After the watercress has been sun-dried, pick off the reddish sea pepper, remove the handle of the sea pepper and clean it, put it in a wooden barrel and chop it with a spatula, pour the dried watercress into it, and add salt in the ratio of one catty of sea pepper to three liang of salt Add salt, white wine, pepper noodles and mix well.

The mixed watercress is fermented in a cool place for a few days, then carried to the courtyard dam to dry, and then dried overnight, stirred and continued to dry, the better the sun, the more fragrant it will be.

After drying, put them into small jars, and then pour some lettuce oil on top of the bean paste. The jars will not be damaged without adding water.

After a week or so, Xiaodouzi came back and happily told her that the teacher had chosen him as the monitor.

Looking at the happy little Douzi, Lin Lan couldn't even close her mouth with joy.

Thinking that I was a scumbag in the past, my parents often used her grades to motivate my little sister, so that she would not be like your pig-headed sister.

Lin Lan felt that she was not stupid at all except that she didn't know how to read, and she could learn how to cook and eat by reading it twice. Maybe it was what the old man often said, God reserved everyone's ability to eat.

A few days before July and a half, the old lady came to Lin Lan's house and said, "July and a half is still a few days away, I have to buy paper money, and I will wrap the lucky paper in a paper bag and send it to your grandfather's house."

Lin Lan nodded, and asked, "Uncle, in the middle of July, I'm going to send blessing papers to my grandfather's house to burn? Why haven't I sent them?"

The old lady glanced at her reproachfully: "If you are still like before, no one will call you this year. Youngest Yang doesn't care about anything, it was all bought by sister Liying."

Lin Lan said embarrassingly: "I was not sensible before, so you can tell me what you want to do in the future."

The old lady smiled and nodded: "Okay, I will call you in the future."

One old and one young went to buy paper money and came back, walking towards the grandpa's house.

The old lady said that the grandfather worked as a Taoist priest in Chongtong Temple before liberation, and returned home to start a family after liberation. He is still [-] years old this year, and his eyesight is still clear.

It was the first time for Lin Lan to visit the Yang family's in-laws' house. When she arrived at the grandpa's house, she saw that the courtyard of his house was still the old-fashioned one. The lower part of the wall was made of blue bricks with patterns, and the upper part was full of wooden carved window panels.
