Ma Yuehong picked her up with a smile and said,
"Nan Bao is awake, are you hungry?"
"Ah wu..."
Hungry.
"Grandma prepared milk powder for Nan Bao. It's just warm enough to drink."
She scooped up the milk powder in the bowl with a small spoon and fed it bit by bit into her slightly open mouth.
The porcelain bowl bottomed out, and Mu Nannan burped. Ma Yuehong patted her back gently for fear that she would choke.
Then he held her and played in the house for a while until she fell asleep again.
High schools in the county have been closed, so Mu Laosi also works in the milk powder factory, leaving early and returning late. All the wages he earns are paid to the government, and his family gradually becomes rich.
Time flies by, and it's the season when the wheat fields are ripe.
The villagers of Taoji Village began to harvest wheat under the leadership of Mu Baoguo.
Even the weak Xu Lanxin was sweating profusely in the field.
She wants to earn more work points and provide more food for her family.
Mo Chen, Mu Sheng, and the two twins worked in the wheat field, and each of these half-year-old boys could earn seven or eight centimeters a day.
Under the shade of a tree at the edge of the field, Mu Nannan, who was more than seven months old, was lying on a clean cloth. Ma Yuehong and Xu Lanxin straightened up to look at her from time to time.
Seeing the little baby lying down and sleeping obediently, he continued to bend down to cut wheat.
"Mother Tree, I succeeded!"
Mun Nannan's fleshy little body turned over, with her back to the people working in the fields, and a drop of green juice condensed on her fingertips.
This is the tree spirit that can heal all things.
"Nannan is awesome."
Mother Tree praised encouragingly.
Since discovering her ability, the two have been constantly trying to awaken it. After working hard for more than three months, they finally succeeded.
Mu Nannan put his fingertips into the big teapot that Ma Yuehong brought, and the tree spirit dripped in.
"Milk, milk, mom -"
She sat up straight on her hands and knees, and the little baby who was just able to speak shouted:
"Mom -"
"Ah!"
Xu Lanxin heard the sound, put down the sickle in her hand and ran over.
She was covered in sweat and her hands were stained with wheat oranges, so she didn't hug her. Instead, she squatted in front of her and asked,
"Is the baby hungry?"
"Mom, go find your elder brother in the wheat field and ask him to carry you home." Is it okay to drink milk powder at home?"
When working together, you can't leave for too long, otherwise your work points will be deducted.
Mu Nannan stretched out his little hand to touch her flushed face, and pointed to the big kettle:
"Mom, drink."
Xu Lanxin never expected that a little baby who was unable to walk steadily for more than seven months could be so considerate:
" The baby called her mother here just to see her mother's hard work and ask her to come back and drink water."
"Yes, mother, drink water."
She felt so comforted in her heart that she was just about to say a few more words to her daughter when the scorer had already moved towards her. Look over here at the end of the field.
She could only give up the idea and hurriedly took a sip of water from the spout, then touched Mun Nannan's head, put on her straw hat again and cut wheat under the scorching sun.
But this time she cut extremely fast, as if she had endless energy in her body.
The daughter-in-law of the Li family who was a few people away from her was left behind. The scorer urged her. Unexpectedly, she suddenly dropped the sickle, pointed at Xu Lan and said in her heart:
"I worked slowly, but I didn't take a break. He has been working hard in the fields from morning to now, but Xu Lanxin just went to rest under the shade of a tree in the field for several minutes. Did the scorer not see it or just pretend that he didn't know?"
Hearing this, the scorer subconsciously looked at Xu Lanxin.
He just saw it, but Xu Lanxin was the captain's daughter-in-law and didn't stay long, so he didn't pursue it.
