Quickly wear and change the fate of the little cannon fodder

There is strength in numbers. After three or four days, the adobe bricks and tiles were almost ready, and the brick kiln was completely cooled down. Grandpa Su announced that the kiln would be opened today.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and gathered around to watch this memorable moment. Father Su first knocked on the small door where the firewood was stored, then slowly knocked on the big door where the bricks were stored, and then handed out the bricks one by one while they were still warm.

They gathered around to see the bricks being handed out, some were red, some were black, and some were half red and half black. After looking again and again, Grandpa Su knocked on the bricks, and the sound was crisp.

I touched it again and scratched it with my fingers. No dust fell off. I hit it a few more times with more force. Hmm, it didn't break. It was quite solid. I tried several bricks in this way. I also tried bricks taken from different positions.

Only one of the ten bricks was broken. Su Xiaoxiao explained that it would be stronger if it was soaked in water later. Grandpa Su was very happy and tried a few more bricks!

Afterwards, Grandpa Su happily announced: This time the brick kiln was successfully fired. Everyone cheered, everyone was very happy, as if they saw a bright future, and they were all very excited.

Only Su Xiaoxiao looked at the red bricks with a strange color without saying a word. She didn't know if it was because of the soil or the poor control of the temperature, which led to the unattractive color. She didn't know whether it was successful or not.

But whether it succeeds or not, at least it is much better than the previous adobe, right? As for the color, that is not important. As long as it is solid and does not fall off, it is a success for them.

Then they started digging the foundation to build the house, and at the same time they started a new round of burning bricks. After burning the bricks, they burned tiles. After two months, the tiles were finally burned out. After burning the tiles, they burned the pots, and then they stopped burning. It was too hot and people couldn't stand it. As for the charcoal fire, we'll talk about it in winter!

The two houses have also taken shape. Grandpa Su and Grandma Su are very hardworking. They have planted sweet potatoes and potatoes in the fields, and they are growing well. The peppers are bearing fruit, the pumpkins are blooming, and the rice is also being planted in the fields.

It was just that the dozen sweet potatoes suffered. They kept sprouting and had to be cut and planted. The grandparents had to cut a dozen sweet potatoes to grow an acre of land. The sweet potato seeds could not bear the weight and died heroically. But their children all grew up well.

Cut a small piece of potato at each bud. Three potatoes can also make up two acres of land!

Pumpkins were the most abundant. They were planted in more than five mu of land. A rack was also built for the Tianxiang ones, whose leaves were bigger than a palm leaf fan.

Su Xiaoxiao has picked the tops of pumpkins several times in the past month and fried the pumpkin flowers. Grandma Su was very distressed and didn't understand why Su Xiaoxiao would pick the tops of pumpkins that were growing well. In her opinion, the longer the pumpkin grows, the more it will grow.

Su Xiaoxiao later explained that if they were pinched, the fruits would grow more, bigger and sweeter. Otherwise, the nutrients would only be enough for them to grow into seedlings but not fruit. Only then did Grandma Su feel relieved.

Su's mother, Li's belly is already six months old. It's particularly big. I don't know if it's because she's relaxed and eats more, or if it's because it might be twins! Anyway, the belly is bigger than the normal six-month belly.

It is impossible to say that excessive nutrition causes the fetus to be too large. When the child needs nutrition the most, there is not enough meat and vegetables, and he only eats some coarse flour buns. How can it be considered excessive nutrition?

Moreover, she had experienced the fright from fleeing famine when she needed rest the most and it was a relief that she did not have a miscarriage, which was a very good thing for her.

That means the last one might be twins. Grandma Su also had this suspicion. She was a half-baked midwife. She had seen so many pregnant women. She knew her daughter-in-law's belly was big at the first time, but she didn't dare to tell her daughter-in-law for fear that she would worry and scare herself.

Su Xiaoxiao was also a little worried, after all, it was twins, and the risk was too great. But she relaxed a little when she thought of the birth control pills in her space.

After Li's belly became big, she didn't let him do heavy work. She started to sew small clothes by herself. She prepared some cotton cloth before fleeing the famine. She used it to make small clothes. Su Xiaoxiao saw the small clothes her mother sewed. Her craftsmanship was so good that Su Xiaoxiao envied her very much.

Suddenly I thought of the big bags of old clothes packed in the apartment, or clothes that I no longer liked before wearing them, and some of them were outdated. So I took them all out and gave them to Li, asking him to see if they could be used after being disassembled. If they couldn't be used, I would make shoe soles.

Su's mother, Li, curiously opened it and saw some clothes of different styles and fabrics that she had never seen before. She happily said, "Is this also given to you by the immortal? How can you not use it? It is very useful."

Although the clothes are old, Xiaoxiao has washed and dried them neatly. There is no peculiar smell except the smell of laundry detergent.

Then I took Grandma Su to open the plastic bag together. Every time I took out a piece of clothing, I thought about what I could do with it. There were even a few pairs of long johns that I had never worn, and the tags hadn't been cut off yet. This could be worn directly in winter, and it happened to be a women's style, and Grandma Su was afraid of the cold.

Su's mother can also use it after giving birth, anyway, it doesn't matter if you wear it inside. Because in the previous life, I thought it was too clumsy to use, but I bought it in sets, only wearing the top and not the pants. I have a lot of leggings and long johns, all new.

Because they are for winter use, several pieces are padded with fleece, which has excellent warmth retention effect. Grandma Su was very happy to see these. At her age, she has some elderly diseases, so keeping the joints warm is very important.

Grandma Su was still curious, why did it look like they were all worn by women? Why weren't there any men wearing them? Su Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and said nothing.

It would be strange if she had men's clothes in there. But next time I have a chance, I'll prepare some of each, maybe they'll be useful. After that, Grandma Su went to the vegetable garden to look at the vegetables, and spent the rest of her time with Li to sort out the bags of clothes. Some were torn into cloth, and some were torn into thread.

Anyway, Xiaoxiao saw that they didn't throw anything away, and everything could be used. She originally thought that all of them were used to make shoe soles, but in the end only some scraps of cloth were left.

Grandma Su also said that these can be braided into hair ribbons. Su Xiaoxiao was completely stunned. It was amazing! Even the fur taken from the hood of the down jacket was made into a tiger head hat and shoes for children!

"Grandma, do you know how to fluff cotton?" Su Xiaoxiao asked curiously.

"Silly child, what's so difficult about this? Who is so rich? How can you get so much cotton to make a new quilt? You just use old cotton clothes and quilts to open them and add a few pounds of new cotton to make new ones. Basically, clothes and quilts are not brand new." Grandma Su said as if it was nothing unusual.

Su Xiaoxiao immediately took out the old quilts, sheets, pillowcases, and quilts from the space. The quilts were also made of cotton. There were several beds, but they were not new.

Because they were not in short supply in my hometown and they were too big to carry, I couldn't bear to throw them away, so I never took them back. "Then you can take these and do something with them. I don't know how to do it, and since they are not new, I thought you would dislike them, so I never took them out." Su Xiaoxiao said
