Chapter 54
At noon this day, after coaxing the baby to sleep, Xu Wanxiu began to work in the kitchen. She cooked a pot of white porridge, and then fried a dish of cabbage. Finally, the cucumber fried pork slices, the portion was far more than per person.
After all these meals were done, Xu Wanxiu took out another plate, and put a few pieces of cabbage into it, as well as a quarter of cucumber fried pork slices, and the rest were all simmered in the pot and covered. The lid prevents it from getting cold.
After filling a bowl of porridge again, Xu Wanxiu brought it out to sit down at the dining table and began to eat lunch. She is basically at home alone during the day, and she simply frys a meat dish and a material, and serves it with clear porridge and rice, and she is very comfortable.
As for dinner, he will wait for Zhao Guoqiang to come back. Originally, Xu Wanxiu thought that it would be the same as before, that she would wash and prepare all the ingredients for the meals beforehand, so that Zhao Guoqiang would be able to relax and hurry up when he came back, and just stir-fry the dishes.
But this man did not agree with life or death, Xu Wanxiu couldn't beat him, so he had to accept it.
As for the usual grocery shopping and cleaning, Zhao Yelai is in charge of it.
The baby's bath time has to be in the afternoon, then the room temperature will be high, and she will not catch a cold so easily when she takes off her clothes. If you wait until Zhao Guoqiang comes back, and then bathe the child after eating, it will not be good for the child.
Before Xu Wanxiu mentioned this, Zhao Ye had already said, "Wanxiu, this child should take a bath as early as possible. If he takes a bath too late, it is easy to catch a cold when it is cold, and the child is also prone to panic."
She said, "Why don't I come over and help bathe the child with you after I wake up after eating at noon?" Zhao Ye knew that when the child was a child, he could not handle the big bathing project alone.
After Xu Wanxiu heard her thoughts, she didn't refuse, but responded directly with a smile: "In that case, I really want to thank you, Mrs. Zhao. If I want to be alone, I really have to wait for my man to come back. Then I can bathe the child."
"Hey, Wanxiu, you are being too polite to me." Zhao Ye took the money to help take care of others, so of course he had to think more about it, not to mention that she and Xu Wanxiu were already concerned about it. Well, she is warmhearted again, "If you need help in the future, you must tell me."
"Sister-in-law is careless. Sometimes you don't talk about a lot of things, and I don't notice it. Considering it." Zhao Ye smiled modestly.
In the past half a month, except for the first two days, after I was a little flustered because I didn't get used to it, the rest of the days were quite comfortable.
Xu Wanxiu ate the light meal contentedly, her taste has been nourished, she doesn't have much desire for oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, she just thinks about how to make it light.
She will cook so many dishes today because Mother Xu is already on the train. A few days ago, there was a letter from the Xu family. In the letter, Xu Wansong said that Xu's mother was coming back today, and also explained in advance that Zhao Guoqiang would pick her up.
It is estimated that Xu's mother is almost here, so Xu Wanxiu cooked some more porridge and vegetables. Later, when she gets home, she will definitely be exhausted. It's good to eat something light and full.
After washing the dishes, Xu Wanxiu went into the room and lay down on the bed to check whether the thin quilt on the baby's body was displaced before she fell asleep.
For the past two months, she has become accustomed to taking a nap with her child at noon, otherwise it will be difficult for her to sleep again when the little guy wakes up.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Wanxiu woke up leisurely. She originally wanted to leave the room quietly, but when she turned around, she saw that the baby was already staring at her with her eyes open, and she immediately grinned when she saw her mother turning around. up.
"Yo, when did we wake up Ningning? It's so good, I didn't wake up my mother." Xu Wanxiu smiled and played with her, rubbing her baby's soft hair with her hands. The child especially enjoyed this action.
No, he was squinting his eyes and grinning at the corners of his mouth, rubbing his head against Xu Wanxiu's palm.
"Come on, mother will take you out of the living room." Now that the child was awake, Xu Wanxiu simply took her in her arms and walked into the living room.
Before going to bed, she boiled a pot of hot water and put it in the kitchen. She ran a cup of brown sugar water and put it in the living room and simmered it with the lid. The water temperature was just right now.
Xu Wanxiu sat down on the chair in the living room, put the baby on her lap, hugged her with one hand, and started drinking from the water glass with the other free hand.
"Yah, ah, ah, ah." The baby was lying in the mother's arms, his face was facing the sky, just so he could see all the mother's movements. She babbled, trying to get her mother's attention.
In other words, she wanted to fill the cup in Xu Wanxiu's hand. This child is very active as long as he is awake now, and he wants to catch anything he sees.
But her hand only had so little strength, not even a kitten. Once Xu Wanxiu took a clean towel and put it next to her hand, the baby grabbed the corner of the towel and tugged hard, so she barely held the towel to move. a little bit.
The mother and daughter played for a while when the door rang outside. It was the sound of a key being inserted into the door hole. The baby has a smart ear, subconsciously stopped the movement in his hand, and turned his head to see the direction of the sound. But Xu Wanxiu hugged her firmly, and the little guy couldn't move much.
"Ning Ning, don't worry, my mother will take you to see it. It should be Daddy and Grandma who are back." Xu Wanxiu coaxed softly, she got up and walked over with the baby in her arms.
Before she could reach the door, the door was pushed open. Xu's mother was a servant, still carrying two big bags. She hadn't seen her daughter and granddaughter for half a month, so she thought very much.
Especially hearing Xiuxiu calling her "mother" and Ning Ning waving her hand to pounce on her, Mother Xu couldn't help laughing. The wrinkled lines gathered at the end of her eyes, which made her look a little more old-fashioned, but her brows and the corners of her mouth were raised, which added a bit of kindness.
Mother Xu said with a smile, "Hey, Ning Ning, my grandmother is dirty now. I'll hug you after I wash my hands and change my clothes." Not to mention the mess on this train, all kinds of people eat all kinds of food on it, and the delicious When the smell is mixed together, it is a strange smell, and it is more or less stained on the clothes. Xu's mother is afraid that the good granddaughter will be smoked.
Seeing that she was in good spirits, Xu Wanxiu didn't seem very tired, and she felt relieved. She held the baby who was about to jump forward, and said with a smile, "It's good that Mother is home safely, I have porridge and vegetables for you, After you pack up, eat some pads first, you must be hungry."
"Well, then I'll go and clean up first." Mother Xu replied with a smile, and she also felt uncomfortable. After she finished speaking, she walked directly to the guest room, put down the snakeskin bags in both hands, turned around and went to the toilet to wash her hands and face, and then went back to the room to change her clothes.
This time, she was much calmer than when she came back last time. She has lived here for two months anyway. She has done everything before and after, and she is already very familiar with this family. Mother Xu is no longer anxious before. , but there is a little more sense of belonging, and this is likely to be where she will live most of the time in the next few years.
After cleaning up, Mother Xu sat at the dining table. Xu Wanxiu had already warmed up the two dishes left in the kitchen, and put a bowl of porridge on the dining table. Zhao Guoqiang played with the baby for a while, and when Xu Wanxiu was done, he said not to go back to the army.
He just took a leave of absence and took time to go to the train station to pick up Mother Xu. The unprocessed documents are still piled up in the office, and the training ground has not been routinely inspected. He has to deal with them today. Many things are time-sensitive, and leaving them until tomorrow may delay major events. Zhao Guoqiang will never let such a thing happen.
Mother Xu ate the hot meal, which was made by her daughter, and was very satisfied. She changed her clothes, and she felt a lot more refreshed. She smiled and said to Xu Wanxiu, "Daughter, how have you been resting recently? Is the baby okay? Is everything going smoothly at home?"
She asked three questions in a row. , Xu Wanxiu couldn't help laughing, "Mother, you ask so many questions at once, I don't know which one to answer first. I've been at home recently, except to play with my baby and cook lunch at noon. Rest, recovery is pretty good. The baby has been very good recently, she is very active when someone is playing with her, and she is not troubled when no one is playing with her, everything is going well at home."
Xu Wanxiu responded to the question asked by Xu's mother, One by one answered seriously, very seriously. She knew that Mother Xu was also worried about herself and was thinking about it, so she would ask these questions as soon as she sat down, without taking a breath.
Then she told Mother Xu about her daily life in the recent period, including Zhao Guoqiang coming home to cook at night, Zhao Ye usually coming to help with work, and offering to help the baby bathe together and so on.
Mother Xu was very relieved to hear this, nodded and said, "The son-in-law is good, I usually work in the army all day, but I insist that you should not prepare the dishes first, but keep it for him to prepare, where is such a man? They are hard to find with lanterns."
In the eyes of the older generation, not to mention a gentleman, it should be a man who cooks far away, at least Xu's mother has seen so many people, including Xu's father. When she was confinement, he would never come into the kitchen to help with cooking, and it was because she had no mother-in-law above her that Father Xu went into the kitchen.
When a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, family conditions may also be considered, but of course, what reassures them more is that her son-in-law has enough love for her daughter and is willing to take care of her daughter considerately. Zhao Guoqiang has done this very well. The more they get along, the more satisfied Mother Xu is with this son-in-law.
"He's always been good to me, I know that." Xu Wanxiu replied with a smile, the corners of her mouth raised, no need for Mother Xu to stress, she knew it all.
"It's good to know." Xu's mother was just a lot of words, and she added, "This Zhao Ye is also okay, when I was there before, she often came to see you, and the people were warm and easy to get along with. Yes. It is said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Xiuxiu, you don’t know anyone in this family building, and sometimes your son-in-law goes out on a mission, and you have no one to take care of.”
“Get along well with this Zhao Ye, it’s just the two of you. It's just a wall, isn't it just fate? It's always right to be friends with a few reliable people." Mother Xu couldn't help but explain again as a visitor. I didn't realize this before, but when she returned to the village this time, she was always worried about it, for fear that her daughter would not have a good life, and she didn't know if she would be able to take care of her children.
"Mother, I know that Mrs. Zhao has taken good care of me since I came to the family building. She took me to do many things, and I have been with her all the time." Xu Wanxiu agreed with a smile. I noticed that the baby was lying in his arms and his eyes were active, as if he was listening to the conversation of adults.
She smiled and cared about Mother Xu again, "Mother, haven't you been busy in the village recently? This autumn harvest is the most tiring time of the year."
"Hey, it's almost the same. I'll take care of my two children at home. When it's time for dinner, I'll cook it, put it in the basket and bring it to the field for your brother and sister-in-law to eat. I'm not tired, but your brother and sister-in-law are the only ones. I'm really tired. Don't I think about your side? As soon as the fields in the village are done, I'll give the child to your sister-in-law to take, and come back here quickly."
Mother Xu said with a smile, she was just thinking about it Girl, even if she lives in Xujiatun, her heart will not be at ease for a day.
When Xu Wanxiu heard this, her smile became softer, and her heart felt warm. She urged Mother Xu, "Mom, go to the rest party after you finish eating. It's been a few hours on the train, and you will definitely be tired.
" Said that Xu's mother really felt a little tired, and she repeatedly explained to Xu Wanxiu, "Xiuxiu, I will put the tableware in the kitchen first. You must not touch it. I will wash it when my mother wakes up later.
" Having said that, Xu Wanxiu didn't say much, and smiled. Mother Xu walked into the guest room to sleep, and she also hugged the baby who was already a little sleepy after listening to what the adults had said for a long time, and coaxed her to sleep.
Mother Xu said that she went into the room to sleep, and even if she was drowsy, she only woke up after squinting for more than an hour. She was thinking about something in the bottom of her heart. She sat up and walked to the kitchen, and saw that the tableware and chopsticks had been washed, she couldn't help but nag, "This child, he said not to touch the tableware and chopsticks, why is he so disobedient? ?"
That being said, Mother Xu didn't mean to blame at all, she skillfully began to wash and cook rice, and then rummaged through the place where the ingredients were placed, thinking about what to cook tonight.
She has been here for more than two months, and she knows exactly what is in the kitchen. Mother Xu also remembered all the tastes of her daughter and son-in-law.
Thinking like this, Mother Xu's hands kept moving and she started to get busy.
In the room, Xu Wanxiu was sitting at the small table writing the manuscript, thinking smoothly. After writing the end of this chapter, click on the last period. She put down the pen that she held tightly in her hand and stretched out her hands, only then did she notice the movement outside.
Mother woke up so soon? She packed up the pen and paper, put it in a hidden place, checked the baby's condition again, and then walked out of the room to see Mother Xu busy in the kitchen.
"Mother, why did you wake up so early, don't you have a rest?" Xu Wanxiu walked over and asked with a smile.
Mother Xu was washing vegetables with her back to the kitchen door. She put all the picked vegetables in a basket and drained them. She heard her daughter's voice and said with a smile, "Mother's resting for an hour has already made me more energetic, and I have no spare time for a moment. If I can't stop, I just want to work. It's better to cook early, and I'll have dinner when my son-in-law comes back." She glanced in the direction of the room and asked, "Is Ning Ning still sleeping? It's not too early at this time. Now, it's better to take a bath as soon as possible. It's easy to catch a cold later." Mother Xu asked, "Will I wait for me to cut up the pork I have, and then ask her to get up and take a bath?
" She took a bath first, it's not too late." Xu Wanxiu smiled and nodded, she thought about it, and after talking to Xu mother, she walked back to the room first.
The little guy lying on the bed slept soundly, breathing softly, and habitually put his hands on either side of his head just like when he was born. When Xu Wanxiu was in modern times, she heard her sister-in-law say that the baby feels more secure and more comfortable sleeping in this way.
She sat on the bed, reaching out and gently touching the baby's hand. The child was not awakened, but opened his eyelids and glanced at Xu Wanxiu, then closed his eyes again. It was obvious that she was still sleepy, so Xu Wanxiu reached out and poked lightly again. She opened her eyes a little longer this time, but she closed her eyes again.
Seeing her sleeping so soundly, Xu Wanxiu couldn't bear to wake her up. Thanks to the baby's good temper, he didn't cry directly. But it's really getting late. If you get up to take a shower, the temperature will drop after the sun goes down.
She reluctantly reached out and patted the baby's chest, softly coaxing, "Ningning, shall we get up first?"
Fortunately, this time the baby opened her eyes, but she didn't fall asleep again, but this time she was really unhappy, she wanted to cry when she pursed her mouth, Xu Wanxiu directly picked her up and let her With him on his shoulders, he stood up and walked up and down, swaying and coaxing, "Ning Ning don't cry, let's wake up and take a bath, okay?"
Even if the child doesn't understand this, Xu Wanxiu usually likes it very much. Talking to her like this, the mother and daughter have always had an interactive process. She walked out of the dining table with the baby and fed her some malted milk. As soon as the little guy saw something brought to his mouth, he subconsciously opened his mouth and drank.
The wheat milk essence is sweet. When she drank it like this, the originally wrinkled little brows loosened, and the corners of her mouth that were pressed into a flat line also raised upwards. Finally, she stopped crying, and this person also became more spiritual. Xu Wanxiu was relieved to see her like this.
"You Ningning is awake, I'm going to put hot water for you to take a bath." When Mother Xu walked out of the kitchen, she saw that the child was awake and enjoying the malt milk essence, she hurriedly said. A pair of children, two grandchildren and one granddaughter, Mother Xu has also taken care of five newborn children in her life, and the good granddaughter Ning Ning is definitely the best.
She knew what the trouble was when the child was woken up when she was sleeping soundly, but she didn't hear her granddaughter crying just now, so Mother Xu also hurry up. Before Xu Wanxiu could respond, she walked into the toilet and took the bathtub to put hot water.
The baby may have just woken up and was a little confused, or she may have recognized the birth. She was a little scared when she saw Mother Xu while she was taking a bath. But when Mother Xu used a skilled technique to scrub her body, the child immediately splashed through the water with enjoyment. Both Xu Wanxiu and Xu's mother were experienced, and they all put on a towel in front of them, just to prevent her from doing this trick.
When Mother Xu returned to the family building, Zhao Ye didn't have to hustle and bustle, everything returned to the original rhythm, and Xu Wanxiu also relaxed a lot.
Soon it will be August 15th, and this is the first time to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in the family building. Recalling last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, Xu Wanxiu and Zhao Guoqiang spent time at Zhaojiatun. They went to the county town to watch a movie for dinner, as if it was yesterday. She was even happier that she found out that she was pregnant with a baby shortly after returning from the Mid-Autumn Festival last year.
At that time, the baby was in her belly for more than a month; and this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, the baby has been born for almost three months. She will laugh and play with her parents, cry and make trouble, and the family will also add a bit of joy.
This year, Xu Wanxiu still made snowskin mooncakes, but last year she made them together with Zhao Guoqiang. This year, Zhao Guoqiang is still busy with work, so she and Xu mother worked together to make them.
This is not a unique secret recipe. Whether or not to rely on this method to make money in the future is another matter. Xu Wanxiu does not shy away from teaching Xu's mother.
Of course, Mother Xu only thought it was a cake. She carefully followed Xu Wanxiu's actions, prepared the fillings together, kneaded the glutinous rice balls, and then learned to pick up a dose of glutinous rice balls and wrap the fillings that were kneaded into small balls.
A so-called "pastry" is done.
Mother Xu looked at a plate of ready-made pastries on the table, and she could smell the aroma from far away, and it looked no different from the ones sold in the supply and marketing cooperative.
She couldn't help but sighed, "Xiuxiu, you are really clever. It's actually not difficult to make this cake, but the method is not spread, it's all private recipes. These cakes are placed in the supply and marketing cooperative, and a pound of these cakes can be sold for several pieces. Money."
"Mother, you're right, this is indeed a rare recipe, and if it wasn't for my sister-in-law in the family building to teach me by chance, I wouldn't know it." Xu Wanxiu replied with a smile, she put the pastry The matter of how Fang Zi came, is all pushed to others. Anyway, Mother Xu couldn't find anyone to verify, on the contrary, she would cover up this matter to the death.
The next second, I heard Mother Xu explain, "Although we can't make money from this pastry recipe now, it's still a craft. If you tell me that's fine, don't tell others about it easily? I'll take this one too. I keep things in my heart and no one will tell them." Including her son and daughter-in-law.
After all, Xu Wanxiu smiled and nodded and replied, "Mother, I know, you can rest assured."
On August 15th, Zhao Guoqiang was still on duty, but he came back early in the evening. . As soon as he entered the room, he saw several dishes and a pot of soup on the dining table, all steaming hot, and couldn't help laughing.
At this time, Mother Xu brought out the last dish from the kitchen, and when she saw Zhao Guoqiang coming back, she greeted, "Guo Qiang is back, go wash your hands and prepare to eat.
" Wash your hands in the toilet.
The baby in the room was already awake, Xu Wanxiu heard the sound of Zhao Guoqiang coming back outside, and hurriedly cleaned up the scattered bedding on the bed, so she picked up the baby and walked out of the room, just as Zhao Guoqiang came out of the toilet.
"Wanxiu, I'm back." Zhao Guoqiang greeted Xu Wanxiu with a smile. He reached out to take the child and held it in his arms, "Ning Ning, let me hold it."
Mother Xu has already served the meal. , one person and one bowl were placed in their respective positions, and greeted, "Everyone has come to eat."
"Hey, good." Xu Wanxiu and Zhao Guoqiang responded almost at the same time. The baby in his arms raised his head, looked at his father, then at his mother, grinning and smiling.
Sitting at the dinner table, surrounded by the family, was also the first festival that Mother Xu spent in the family building. Xu Wanxiu and Zhao Guoqiang are really grateful to Mother Xu for being able to help. The two of them looked at each other, and Zhao Guoqiang said, "Mother, it
's been really hard for you since Wanxiu was pregnant. Thanks to your help, we were able to get through this time."
, even if the language is not so pleasant.
Mother Xu has been here for a long time, and she also knows the temperament of this son-in-law. She nodded with a smile, "Guoqiang, you have accepted your thank you mother. Let's talk about these things once, and don't talk about them in the future. I I’m here to help you because I love my daughter, so why should I thank you so many times?”
“As long as it’s about Xiuxiu, it’s worthy of my attention.” Zhao Guoqiang almost blurted out, but everyone who heard it could feel the importance of it. , he paused and said, "Mother, you can love Xiuxiu so much and take care of me, which is what I envy."
It was after so many years that he felt the care similar to mother again. Mother Xu treats him very well, and really takes care of him as a junior, not a son-in-law who has a close relationship.
"Hey, it's said that this son-in-law is half-hearted, and what the mother does is right." Mother Xu smiled kindly, and the words she said were even more heart-warming.
Xu Wanxiu listened on the side, she knew that Xu's mother heard the gratitude and envy in Zhao Guoqiang's words, and Xu's mother also comforted her without a trace, and felt even more at the moment. She made a gag and said, "Mother, Guoqiang, let's eat quickly. The food will be cold later. You see, Ning Ning has been staring at the food on the table for a while." The
baby is very innocent. She was nestling in her father's arms, staring intently at the attractively colored food on the dining table, listening to the adults with her ears pricked up. She looked up at the eyes of her father and grandmother with a blank expression.
The family just talked and laughed and ate the reunion dinner on the Mid-Autumn Festival night, plain and warm. Mother Xu ate much better food than in the village before. Seeing the smiles of her daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter, she was satisfied, and she was also thinking of her son's family in the distant Xujiatun.
After eating, Zhao Guoqiang dropped another piece of shocking good news. His face was calm and his voice was calm, "Mother, Wanxiu, I've been promoted to head of the regiment." But if you look closely, the corner of his mouth clearly thinks that he is desperately suppressing , or I'm afraid it would have been raised long ago.
Since before giving birth, Zhao Guoqiang has been busy, busier than ever. Xu Wanxiu also heard what Zhao Guoqiang said, that the head of Wang is about to retire and intends to train him, so the training and assessment will naturally follow.
She was happy for Zhao Guoqiang at the time. He was enthusiastic about being a soldier, and he really liked it. He sweated on the training ground and dedicated himself to the army.
It's just that she really didn't expect that such good news would come so quickly, and she was shocked at the moment.
"Oh, I'll be good." Xu's mother opened her mouth in shock. Before her son-in-law became the deputy head of the regiment at the age of 30, Zhaojiatun and Xujiatun have already spread their magic, and they are very powerful existences. This year, my son-in-law is only 30 years old. How come he has already been promoted to the deputy head?
In fact, it is even more powerful than Xu's mother understands. Zhao Guoqiang has been able to step by step, from a rural boy enlisting in the army to this point, and he knows the hardships involved.
Of course, he is also capable and talented in this regard, and he has a right mind, and he is meticulous in everything he does, coupled with his hard work, he can get to where he is now.
Xu Wanxiu didn't know about it before, but in the more than a year since she came here, Zhao Guoqiang devoted almost all of his time to the army, and he was injured and went to the hospital.
During the period of her childbirth, Zhao Guoqiang's task became heavier and heavier. It seems that he was able to achieve such results as expected.
Xu Wanxiu smiled, and she said sincerely, "Guoqiang, congratulations, our day is getting better and better."
Mother Xu nodded after hearing what her daughter said, "Yes, son-in-law, you are too good . Now, there is no one who can compare to you." She didn't know much, she only knew that it must be a good thing to change from vice to positive. This is not only happy for Zhao Guoqiang, but also lamenting that her daughter's future is getting better and better.
At the end, Mother Xu once again sighed her good vision and chose Zhao Guoqiang as her son-in-law. Thinking of the fair and thin face that her daughter liked before, Mother Xu found Zhao Guoqiang's son-in-law more and more pleasing to the eye.
"Well, this can be considered a happy event. It's usually nothing. It just happened to be a holiday today, so tell Mother and Wanxiu how happy you are." Zhao Guoqiang held the baby's hand teasingly, and said with a smile. If these things usually happen, he might not bring it up on the stage. The promotion of the head of the regiment is certainly gratifying, but Zhao Guoqiang is also calm and restrained enough.
The atmosphere tonight is really too good. On the day of the small reunion dinner, looking at Xu Wanxiu's peaceful face, Zhao Guoqiang said his words unconsciously.
Well, he wanted the little girl to be happy and happy for him.
When he saw Xu Wanxiu smiling and making himself happy, Zhao Guoqiang felt a sense of happiness from the bottom of his heart. After making progress and promotion in his favorite field, he finally has someone to share his joy with, instead of swallowing joy in his heart alone.
There is infinite joy here. On Xujiatun's side, Xu Wansong's family is also eating around the dining table.
Xu Yuanhong is four years old this year. He can eat his meals smoothly without dropping rice grains on the table. Xu Yuen Long is almost two years old now. He can walk steadily and speak smoothly, but he still stumbles when he eats with a spoon.
Li Xiaoping was really distressed when she saw the scattered rice grains, and now she still asked him to sit on the chair obediently, and she scooped the rice with a spoon and fed it to him. At the same time, she did not fall, she almost took two bites by herself, and then fed her younger son.
The food on the dinner table is similar to usual. If you really want to compare it carefully, it may be an extra dish of fried pork slices with cucumber, which is a good meat dish. Xu Wansong was eating, and from time to time he would put a piece of meat in Xu Yuanhong's bowl, saying, "Eat more."
Of course, he would never go wrong in this kind of thing, and Xu Wansong also gave Li Xiaoping He took a piece of meat and explained, "Xiao Ping, this kid doesn't look hungry, you have to eat first."
Xu Yuen Lang's little friend would be making a fuss. Every time his mother handed over a spoon, he would turn his head to avoid it. Xu Wansong looked upset and said so after he was willing to take a bite. Most of the children's fuss is to attract the attention of their parents. When he hears his father's words, he will be angry, "Eat, you eat."
Li Xiaoping glanced at her man, and then looked at her little son. I ignored him, just picked up the chopsticks and ate it by myself. It was rare to cook so much meat, and she cherished it very much.
After the family had eaten, Xu Yuenlang realized that his parents really didn't want to take care of him. He tugged at Li Xiaoping's clothes and said coquettishly, "Mother, you bully others, I want to eat." He talking.
This father may not be soft-hearted right away, but Li Xiaoping agreed immediately and said, "Hey, mother, I'll feed you."
Xu Yuanhong's children were full, and he didn't eat less meat. The younger brother looked like this, he couldn't help touching his round belly and smiled, "Brother is so stupid, I have eaten all the meat."
In fact, there was a little piece of meat left on the plate, which was specially reserved by Li Xiaoping.
Xu Wansong sat aside and laughed silently, just watching his wife and children making trouble.
After feeding the younger son, let him go with the eldest son, Li Xiaoping got up and packed the tableware, while talking to Xu Wansong about trivial daily life. She didn't know what she was talking about, but she couldn't help but say, "I don't know how my mother is now? I didn't spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with her this year. I'm not used to it."
She said it sincerely, wait for Li Xiaoping After reacting, she subconsciously looked up at her man.
I really saw Xu Wansong being silent for a while, and then suddenly smiled, "Mother is at my little sister's place. Naturally, I eat and drink well, so don't worry." After the
holiday, Zhao Guoqiang finally had a day off. At night, he asked Xu Wanxiu, who was laying down to sleep, and said, "Wanxiu, I'm on vacation the day after tomorrow. Do you want to go to the county seat to buy something? I can accompany you.
" In the family building, I have been to the farthest place recently, I am afraid it is downstairs.
"You finally have a rest." Xu Wanxiu smiled when she heard it, and she was really happy for Zhao Guoqiang. He has been busy for a long time, because sometimes he takes leave intermittently and comes back to deal with family affairs, and he has not had a serious day off until now.
"Well, you haven't been out for a long time. I'll go with you." Zhao Guoqiang nodded and said with a smile.
It happened that Xu Wanxiu was also thinking about the clothing store. She had not been there for three months, and she did not know how the business of the clothing store was going. She had planned to visit the county town for a long time, but she didn't expect Zhao Guoqiang to take a rest, she nodded and replied, "Okay, let's go to the county town the day after tomorrow."
The next day, Xu Wanxiu told her mother Xu about this. After many times, her old man immediately agreed, "Hey, it's rare that your son-in-law is free, and you have been bored for a long time. It is also good to let him accompany you to go around the county town. Ning Ning, you can rest assured, I will definitely give it to you at home. Take care of it."
Remembering that Xu's mother just followed everyone to the market to buy vegetables, and hadn't been to other places, Xu Wanxiu asked with conviction, "Mother, why don't you go into the county with us for a walk? Come here? I haven’t been to the county seat yet, so let’s take the child there too.”
"Forget it, mother, it's not that she hasn't been to the county seat at this age. Mother will take care of Ning Ning at home. It's fine for the two of you to go. It's better to go out less if the child is too young." After listening to Xu's mother refused, she insisted.
Xu Wanxiu had no choice but to follow the original plan.
On the day of Zhao Guoqiang's vacation, the two were ready to go out. Mother Xu said goodbye to the two of them with the baby in their arms, but the child was suddenly unhappy, and suddenly burst into tears and was very sad.
This frightened Xu Wanxiu, she hurriedly stepped forward to hug the baby, swayed and coaxed, and patted her back, "Oh, Ning Ning, don't cry, mother will be back soon."
Zhao Guoqiang Standing beside him, no matter how hard his heart was, when he heard his daughter's howl, he felt uncomfortable in his heart. He was at a loss and could only watch Xu Wanxiu coaxing the child, not knowing what he could do.
It was Xu's mother who had experience. Seeing that her daughter had been coaxing for a long time, the child was still crying. This was obviously because she didn't want to go out for her mother. She stepped forward and carried the baby directly into her arms, and Ningning cried even louder, heartbreaking.
After Xu Wanxiu heard this, all her heartache was entangled.
"Let's go, don't worry about the children, I'll just coax them." Mother Xu said firmly, urging her daughter and son-in-law to leave.
But Xu Wanxiu and Zhao Guoqiang also relented and turned around and left.
It's not that they don't want to take their children out, it's just that the baby is still young and it's not safe to go out.
