"Uncle, mine is two pounds of mushrooms."

"Thirty cents per catty, I'll give you sixty cents."

"Mine is a pheasant."

"I'll give you a dollar. I'll give it to your grandma later."

The children who did not receive the money looked at others holding the money, feeling envious in their hearts and looking at it eagerly.

Liu Chen gave each person two more candies.

"Thank you for rubbing."

This is Liu Hehua, the second daughter of Li Qiaozhen's family. She is five years old and she still doesn't speak fluently.

Liu Hehua usually doesn't play with other children. Her sister Liu Meihua takes the lead in playing at home and rarely has contact with outsiders.

"Sister, did you just say 'Thank you, uncle'?"

Liu Meihua was also shocked that her sister actually spoke.

"Mom, my sister has spoken."

Li Qiaozhen came over quickly, hugged Liu Hehua and kissed her.

She was also surprised that this little daughter didn't speak a word for days or even months. Others said she was mute, but she occasionally heard her speak.

Li Qiaozhen looked at her daughter, tears streaming down her face. The child had not said a word for several months, but now she finally did.

Liu Chen looked at Li Qiaozhen's ecstatic expression and quickly handed over a tissue from his pocket. This tissue was brought from 2022. Liu Chen brought ten kilograms with him.

He is really not used to it. In this era, no one has toilet paper. Most people use earthen garbage, leaves, bamboo chips, or even better, old newspapers to wipe their butts when they go to the toilet. After all, there are very few newspapers. This

In New Year, it’s hard to eat. How many people buy newspapers and read them?

When Liu Chen first came here, he was really not used to going to the toilet. Sometimes he would find some old newspapers, rub them with his hands to make wrinkles, and then wipe them. Sometimes his buttocks would burn and hurt.

Sometimes bamboo slices are used, but be careful when using that, otherwise you are guaranteed to end up with chrysanthemums...

"Thank you Liu Chen."

Li Qiaozhen's sudden "thank you" made Liu Chen very embarrassed. Let's talk about it from there.

Li Qiaozhen told Liu Chen that he was the one who brought the two girls to play with everyone. He also arranged for the other children to take care of the two girls more, otherwise they would not give them sweets. The children are greedy, so naturally

You will be friendlier to them, and as time goes by, the children will be able to play together.

"It's okay." Liu Chen felt embarrassed, what's the point?

Liu Chen already likes children, and two more are not too many.

Li Qiaozhen put the child down, and Liu Chen called Liu Hehua to him again, "Hehua, you learn with me, thank you uncle. I promised to give you candy."

Liu Chen took the White Rabbit toffee in his hand and held it up in front of Liu Hehua.

The child saw that it was White Rabbit Milk Candy. It was the candy that he ate just now. It was very sweet and very delicious. It was sweeter than honey water.

Liu Hehua looked at Liu Chen and moved her mouth slightly, "Thank you... thank you..."

Liu Chen nodded and taught again.

Liu Hehua looked at Liu Chen's mouth shape, opened her mouth and said again, "Thank you...Thank you, uncle."

"You said it right, you said it right this time."

When the children heard Liu Hehua say it, they jumped up happily.

Liu Chen smiled and said: "That's great, I'll give you some candy."

Liu Hehua was very happy when she got the candy. She looked at Li Qiaozhen, who nodded and said she could take it. She looked at Liu Chen with a smile and said, "Thank you, uncle."

This time I spoke better, without stuttering or getting stuck.

"Okay, good point."

The children applauded vigorously.

Liu Chen held Liu Hehua in his arms and asked her to open her mouth and take a look. He saw that Liu Hehua's tongue tie was attached to the tip of her tongue. When the tongue was extended forward, it showed a W shape, with a notch in the middle of the shape;

The frenulum is obvious, and the tongue cannot extend past the lower lip. In fact, it is not a big deal, it is just that the tongue tie is too short.

Tongue-tie, also known as lingual frenulum, is one of the more common minor congenital malformations: Tongue-tie, commonly known as tongue tendon, is the stretch between the tongue and the floor of the mouth when the child opens his mouth and pries up the tongue.

A thin strip of tissue. As we all know, if the tongue tie is too short, it will affect the baby's pronunciation. In addition, Liu Hehua has always been at home and has little contact with the outside world. In addition, the child is introverted and speaks less, so he gradually loses his ability to speak.

Already.

In this era, everyone knows little about it, and they think it is a serious disease. It only requires a small operation.

Now Liu Hehua is five years old and has certain thinking ability. As long as she explains it clearly to her child and asks her to cooperate with her, she can perform a simple operation and it will not affect the child.

Liu Chen actually knew a bit about dentistry. He almost didn't choose dentistry at first, but later he chose obstetrics and gynecology because of his mother's disapproval and became an obstetrician-gynecologist.

"Sister Qiaozhen, if you believe me, I can cure Hehua's disease. It only requires a small operation. In fact, it's not a big deal."

Li Qiaozhen was shocked when she heard that Liu Chen was going to perform an operation on Lotus. In these days, people don't study much, so they understand less.

Generally speaking, a cold can be overcome by just taking some herbal medicine or managing it. Who has ever had surgery? Isn't surgery only for serious cases?

After Liu Chen explained it, Li Qiaozhen felt relieved.

"Okay, I believe you."

Li Qiaozhen didn't know why, but she always felt that Liu Chen was different from others. His abilities were incomparable to ordinary people. Only a short time after joining the life team, he not only revived the "dead man" Erniu's wife, but also built a large building.

A tile-roofed house. In the entire production team, except for Captain Liu, whose family has a tile-roofed house, no one else has a tile-roofed house. Moreover, Liu Chen is literate and a college student, which is unmatched by anyone.

Naturally, Liu Chen didn't know what Li Qiaozhen was thinking.

"Okay, just trust me. Once the house is built, I will operate on the lotus. Believe me, it will be absolutely fine."

It's not a big deal in the first place. To put it simply, it's just tongue-tied.

A simple operation is all it takes.

"Uncle, I want to ride a bicycle."

"Go and be safe."

"okay."

Zhang Xiaojun, the eldest son of the second sister's family, pushed the cart, and a group of children followed behind and ran away chattering.

“There are so many children, it’s very noisy.”

Liu Chen shook his head and looked at Li Qiaozhen and said.

"Achen, you didn't come to help when you came back. What are you doing among the children?"

Captain Liu's third son Liu Jiangang said with a smile.

In fact, he did it on purpose, because now Liu Chen and Li Qiaozhen are the only ones left there.

Liu Jiangang has always liked Li Qiaozhen, but he didn't dare to say it.

Although Li Qiaozhen is a young widow, she cannot stop her beauty. She is also very filial, kind, and most importantly, gentle.

No matter who he meets, he always has a small face and speaks softly. He never blushes with anyone.

As the saying goes, a widow's house is full of trouble. This Liu Chen is a single man, and now that his house has been built, and he has a good relative in the city, he may not be Liu Chen's opponent. The only way now is to let him

Liu Chen and Li Qiaozhen separated. Who could see this charming young woman but not be envious and greedy?

Liu Chen took out his mouthful of Anhui cigarettes and scattered them one by one.

"You're a very fast runner. You've been here for two days to see how the house is built."

It seems that the three large houses are being built very quickly. The beams can all be put up tomorrow.

"As long as your master is here, I can rest assured. I'll have extra food tonight, extra food."

When everyone heard that there would be extra meals tonight, they felt very happy. The meals they had eaten during the Chinese New Year over the years were not as good as the meals they had eaten these days.

There is meat every meal, plenty of oil and water every meal, rice, white flour steamed buns, and my belly is bulging every day.

"Oh, I don't know why I'm so thirsty."

Liu Jiangang said this deliberately because he wanted to eat watermelon.

"Okay, I'll bring you some water."

"Hey brother, I drank the water, that... that..."

As Liu Jiangang spoke, he made a big circle with his hand.

Liu Chen shook his head and said he didn't understand. In fact, could Liu Chen not understand? He did it on purpose.

"You don't do much work, but you eat a lot."

Captain Liu picked up the pipe pole and prepared to knock Liu Jiangang.

Liu Jiangang quickly dodged, holding his head and running while saying: "Dad, I was just kidding, I was kidding."

Liu Chen took the biggest watermelon from the well and cut it into pieces, "Don't do it yet, let's eat the melon first."

As soon as he heard about eating melon, Liu Jiangang rushed over, picked it up and started eating it.

Seeing Liu Jiangang eating enthusiastically, other people also came to eat.

After one more day of building the brick wall, the beams can be put up tomorrow.

In rural areas, building roof beams is a very important step, and sufficient preparations must be made for this.
