In her previous life, Xu Nuannuan, to save her parents, trusted her aunt's family too easily and became a plaything for a powerful figure. Not only did she fail to save her parents, but she was...
Xu Nuannuan didn’t think about how successful her children would be in the future. She just wanted them to grow up healthy and happy with regular education.
Mrs. Guan said, "I've named our second child Shu Teng. What do you think? 'Shu' means to stretch out, to unfold, to be at ease. It also means good luck and freedom from worry. 'Teng' means to run and fly. I think our second child might be a bit boisterous in the future. I wonder if you're happy with this. If not, I'll change it. I have several other good names anyway."
"It's fine, grandma, no need to change it again." Xu Nuannuan said.
Jiang Ye had no objection, "Grandma, that's a good name."
Xu Nuannuan said to her second child, who was lying beside her and waving his hands, "Youyou, your name will be Xu Shuteng from now on."
Finally, it was the third child Tangtang's real name. Old Mrs. Guan still let Xu Nuannuan choose it herself. Xu Nuannuan couldn't make up her mind for the time being, so she put it aside for the time being and called her by her nickname first.
Jiang Ye doesn't need to go back to the army now, but he can't help his wife at home. He is annoyed that he got injured at this time.
Even when he wanted to hug the three little ones, he needed help from others.
These days, most of the women in the family stayed with Xu Nuannuan and the three children. Mei Xiangcao stopped making sachets, but the supply and marketing cooperative sent a purchasing agent to urge her to do so.
"Auntie Mei, you haven't delivered goods for many days. The sachets over there are all sold out. Customers want to buy them but can't. Many people are urging us to restock them."
Mei Xiangcao explained: "My daughter-in-law gave birth to triplets. I have to take care of her and the children, so I can't do it for the time being."
The buyer was in a bit of a dilemma. The sachets made of plum vanilla sold so well in the supply and marketing cooperative. If they lost such a good product, it would be a huge loss for their supply and marketing cooperative.
She looked at the other people at Xu Nuannuan's house and said, "You have so many family members, they can all help you take care of your daughter-in-law and the children."
"But I'm his mother-in-law and the child's grandmother. I can't just ignore it."
After hearing this, Xu Nuannuan said, "Mom, we have enough people at home. If they need the sachets you made, just make some for them. The others can take good care of me and the baby."
Her mother, her grandmother and Jiang Ting are in her room every day. Jiang Ye still has one arm to use, and can occasionally make bottles for the babies. All the diapers are washed by Jiang Yang. Even if Mei Xiangcao is not here, there are always more people to help.
Mei Xiangcao was a little hesitant. After all, she was a grandmother and a mother-in-law. How could she stand idly by and leave the job of taking care of her daughter-in-law and grandchildren to others? She always felt that it was not appropriate to leave it to others.
Fang Suyun also smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, don't worry. If you feel that you haven't done enough, wait until the children grow up and you can take care of them more."
Mrs. Guan said, "We are all family. It doesn't matter who takes care of us. We don't have anything else to do anyway. Just do your job."
Mei Xiangcao finally agreed to the purchaser from the supply and marketing cooperative, "Okay, I'll make some more and send them to you in a couple of days."
"Auntie, you need to make at least a hundred, otherwise there won't be enough to sell."
"Then we'll have to work for two more days, so don't worry."
"Auntie, please hurry up."
"I'll do my best."
Mei Xiangcao was afraid that the pollen remaining in the flowers would cause allergies in her child, so she did not go to Nuannuan's room to do it, but did it in her own room.
However, while working, he was always thinking about his daughter-in-law and grandchildren, and he would go over to see them from time to time, so that the work that could be completed in two days took him four days to finish.
After completion, it will be sent to the supply and marketing cooperative.
This time she didn't take the bus, but asked Jiang Yang to take her there by bicycle.
They arrived at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative. Mei Xiangcao went in to deliver the goods. Jiang Yang did not go in, but waited for Mei Xiangcao beside the car.
Mei Xiangcao went in carrying a bag of sachets and found the salesperson selling the sachets. She wanted her to call the purchasing department, but when she glanced, she saw a familiar figure.
At this time, Jiang Dongcheng was choosing shoes for himself and did not notice the sudden hot gaze cast at him from the side.
Mei Xiangcao didn't expect to see him again so soon. For a moment she was a little dazed, afraid that she had seen it wrong. However, she stared at him for a long time and felt that she was not mistaken. This was really her Dahe. She looked carefully and even the mole on his right ear was exactly the same as Dahe's.
It is impossible for there to be two people in the world who look so similar and have moles in the same place.
She seemed to be dreaming. Daha was not dead, he was really not dead.
That time he was riding his bike in a hurry, and there were so many people around him that he might not have heard her calling him.
This time they were so close and there were fewer people here, so she could have a good talk with him.
Jiang Dongcheng was still carefully selecting shoes and still didn't notice Mei Xiangcao. Mei Xiangcao slowly walked over and called him softly, "Dahe."
When Jiang Dongcheng heard the name, he was confused for a moment, feeling somewhat familiar yet strange.
By the way, that day when he was riding his bike home from get off work, he seemed to hear someone calling this name.
Since they didn't call him, he ignored them and continued to pick out shoes.
"Dahe." Seeing that he didn't respond, Mei Xiangcao called out again.
Jiang Dongcheng was puzzled again and looked around. He was the only one buying shoes here, and the woman standing next to him, who was about his age, was staring at him.
By the way, this woman is the one who shouted Dahe on the roadside that day. He just turned back and glanced at her quickly at that time, and remembered a little bit of her appearance. Now it seems that she is the woman next to him.
He frowned and asked Mei Xiangcao: "You are not calling me, are you?"
"Yes, Dahe, I'm calling you." She couldn't wait to ask him something, so she ignored Jiang Dongcheng's reaction: "Dahe, have you been here all these years? Why did you leave in the first place, and why didn't you come back to find us? Did something happen? How have you been these years?"
For some reason, she had never hated Jiang Dahe. Even now, when she saw him dressed neatly in the supply and marketing cooperative in Beijing, she couldn't hate him.
After listening to her long conversation, Jiang Dongcheng's brows furrowed even more tightly.
"Are you sure you're talking to me? Do you know me? But I don't know you. I've never seen you before. Did you get the wrong person?"
He didn't think he was that attractive, so why would a strange woman approach him like that?
After hearing his words, Mei Xiangcao was stunned.
"Da, Dahe, you said you didn't recognize me. I, I'm Vanilla. Is it because I'm old now that you can't recognize me?" She quickly fixed her hair. "Yes, yes, it's been almost twenty years. My appearance has changed a lot. It's normal that you don't recognize me."
