Chapter 103 Should you praise your mother or yourself?
Mrs. Qiao also smiled and nodded:
"If it weren't for Ran Ran, we wouldn't be able to get milk for Xiao Ba. There are so many people in the village, but there is not a single breastfeeding wife. We can't even find someone to help feed Xiao Ba. We can't help but give it to Xiao Ba. Drink the rice oil."
Rice oil is also called rice soup. Qiao Ran knew that in the old days, people boiled rice oil for babies who had no milk to drink.
Rice oil is the layer of porridge oil that floats on the surface when rice is cooked.
People in the past thought that rice oil was very nutritious and good for babies.
In fact, the gastrointestinal function of newborns is not yet fully developed. Drinking rice oil too early can cause indigestion, diarrhea, bloating and other symptoms.
Therefore, based on the knowledge I learned in my previous life, newborns should not drink rice oil, and they should wait at least five or six months before drinking rice oil.
However, Qiao Ran couldn't explain much to the grandmother and mother of this era.
Fortunately, I was able to get goat milk powder. Although there is no specialized infant milk powder that is more suitable for babies, goat milk powder has high nutritional value and is more suitable for babies than ordinary adult milk powder, pure milk, etc.
In the carriage, the three of them watched the little guy drinking to satisfaction, and they also smiled with satisfaction.
Outside the carriage, Qiao Sanhu, who was originally anxious because his youngest son kept crying, finally let out a long sigh of relief when he heard that his son stopped crying. He must have gotten milk.
It’s so good, my son won’t be hungry anymore!
At this time, the sky was gradually getting brighter, and soon we had to continue on our way.
That night, except for a few people who were more concerned, everyone else barely slept, and they were always concerned about the situation of the Qiao family.
Seeing that the Qiao family was finally stable, they were relieved.
However, the whole night passed so quickly.
Seeing that everyone had not rested well, the old village chief said: "Everyone, let's eat something early to fill our stomachs. Let's set off early and settle down early at noon today. Let's take a rest at noon, and you can also go into the mountains to catch some wild animals. Pick some wild vegetables and fruits, eat well, and continue on your way in the afternoon.
When everyone heard this, they immediately cheered up, found some dry food to fill their stomachs, and set off eagerly.
At noon, they stopped to rest earlier than usual.
The old village chief asked everyone to bury pots and cook. Those who wanted to go into the forest could go together, but they had to watch the time and be sure to come back before three o'clock, otherwise everyone would not wait.
Everyone agreed one after another, and the men and boys who liked hunting were eager to give it a try and wanted to go into the mountains together.
Several people came to invite Qiao Ran. She was their master and she was very lucky. If she followed her, she would surely catch a lot of prey.
However, Qiao Ran thought that her third aunt had just given birth and was already weak, so she had to watch from the sidelines to prevent accidents from happening, so she politely declined, and those people could only go by themselves with regret.
The Qiao family did not dare to leave too far, fearing that they would not be able to come back in time to rescue him if something happened.
Qiao Erhe helped Chen Huiniang set up the stove and went to the forest to collect firewood.
Most of the others went into the forest and looked for wild vegetables and fruits not far away.
Qiao Ran went into the carriage to check on her third aunt and saw that she was sleeping peacefully. She would probably not wake up until this evening.
She didn't bother her, and just let the third aunt rest more. Sleeping was the best way to regain her strength.
Qiao Ran got off the carriage and wanted to help her mother cook, but was pushed aside by Chen Huiniang.
"Ran Ran, go and have a good rest. You are a person with great wisdom and the ability to do great things. You are a great contributor to our family and the whole village. Menial work such as cooking is not suitable for you. My mother has no other skills, except The best thing you can do is cook, so don’t compete with my mother for work."
Qiao Ran couldn't laugh or cry at her mother's words: "Mother is not incompetent! The fact that she gave birth to me, Xiaodong, and Xiaobei, my three siblings, is her greatest ability! Do you have a daughter who is very capable? The village woman Who can compare?"
"Hey! Are you praising your mother or yourself? You're so ashamed!"
Chen Huiniang was amused by her daughter's shamelessness.
Under the cover of her mother, Qiao Ran secretly took out a few eggs and two kilograms of white flour from the space, and asked her mother to bake some pancakes so that everyone would be full.
She excused herself to relieve herself, went into the forest, and came back carrying a reed chicken.
The villagers were no longer surprised that Qiao Ran could catch prey just by walking into the woods.
If she has no ability, can she be the master of the whole village? Haven't you seen that everyone has learned to hunt under her guidance?
When Chen Huiniang saw her daughter coming back with another pheasant, she didn't ask whether she caught it or took it out of the treasure bag, and took it knowingly.
"Ran Ran, you caught the pheasant for your third aunt, right? Mother will kill the chicken right now and make a pot of chicken soup for your third aunt so that she can drink it when she wakes up, and she will breastfeed after drinking it. "
Seeing that her mother understood her intention, Qiao Ran nodded with a smile: "Well, mother, put another ginseng filament in the soup and let the third aunt replenish it. When I rest in the evening, I will see if I can catch some crucian carp." Come and breastfeed Third Aunt."
Crucian carp has a very good lactation effect. The milky white soup is delicious and lactating. It is a good recipe for lactation that has been passed down since ancient times.
It would be better if there is tofu. Crucian carp and tofu soup is delicious, appetizing and nutritious.
It's a pity that during this escape, where can she get tofu?
I can only ask my mother to put some mushrooms, loofah, etc. when she arrives. They are also very nutritious and appetizing.
Qiao Ran was driven back to the carriage by her mother and watched her grandma make some clothes for Xiao Ba.
In fact, several sets of Xiaoba's clothes have already been made, but babies grow very fast, so they have to be made for several periods of time, otherwise they will soon be unable to wear the original clothes.
Mrs. Qiao's eyesight is indeed very good, she can thread needles and threads easily, and her skills in sewing clothes are also good.
Qiao Ran chatted with her while watching her grandma make clothes.
Not long after, Chen Huiniang's meal was ready, and the people digging wild vegetables came back.
Qiao Sanhu and Qiao Sihai came back with a few boys to dig a few handfuls of wild vegetables, and actually picked a large handful of red fruits.
"Sister, this fruit is so sweet, try it!"
From a distance, Qiao Xi shouted excitedly.
He ran over and took a piece of fruit and handed it to his sister.
He discovered this fruit first, and then asked his second brother Qiao Nan to climb up and pick it.
Qiao Ran picked up the fruit and took a bite. It was indeed crisp, sweet and juicy.
"Mom, sister-in-law, you guys should try it too. Xiaoxi discovered this fruit. It's so sweet!"
Qiao Sihai poured the fruits in his arms onto the mat on the ground and picked the two largest ones for Mrs. Qiao and Chen Huiniang.
Mrs. Qiao had good teeth and nodded with satisfaction after taking a bite of the fruit.
"Well, not bad! I didn't expect to find so many fruits in the woods beside the official road. Are there any more fruits on the trees?"
"What's more! The higher branches are so thin that I can't climb them and I can't reach them."
Josie said with excitement.
