The end of the year is coming soon, and Zhou Suisui prepared a new set of clothes for each of the three of them. This is also the time that the children look forward to the most.
However, most children do not have new clothes to wear during the Chinese New Year, especially girls.
It’s not easy to raise a boy nowadays, and girls are even more difficult to raise.
Some families even give birth to several daughters in a row and then abandon or throw them away.
Zhou Suisui made clothes for the three of them. The eldest child wore blue clothes, the second child wore turquoise clothes, and the third child wore red clothes.
These colors were chosen by the three of them, and the cloth was taken out for them to pick out the ones they liked.
Families with many children should be more sensitive and not let them feel that you are biased.
In fact, Zhou Suisui doesn’t really think he is partial to others. Whatever one child has, the other two children definitely have too, without any difference.
Zhou Suisui feels that if there were an award, she would definitely win the Best Stepmother award.
On New Year's Eve, Zhou Suisui got up early, cooked dumplings, and after eating them, he planned to put up couplets.
This couplet is from Zhou Suisui’s space. I chose the cheapest one, but it’s still very eye-catching.
When Mother Gu came, she saw it at once and said, "Old Third's couplet, your couplet is so beautiful. Others have the village elders write theirs on red paper."
"Mom, I bought this from the county town. I have another pair. Do you want one?"
"You have some extra? That's fine. I really like this couplet." Mother Gu said with a smile.
"I came here just to tell you to come to my house for dinner tonight. We're all getting together for the New Year's Eve dinner, but the only thing missing is that the third brother is not at home."
"Jingheng wrote to me two days ago, saying that you and my father had a happy New Year and wished you both a happy New Year. He should be back soon after the New Year." Zhou Suisui said.
"So, will you and the children join the army then?"
"Yes, it shouldn't take long."
"Okay, it's better for the five of us to be together as a family. It's not right for you and the third child to always live separately." said Gu's mother.
She really doesn't care that her son and grandson are not with her.
After all, she has two sons by her side, so if she has a minor illness or pain, she doesn't have to worry about being left alone.
Moreover, the third son's daughter is so capable, good-looking, and young. Mother Gu feels a little uneasy if the third son is not looking after her.
Gu's mother knew that their Gu family owed Zhou Suisui a little. Ever since Zhou Suisui married the third brother, the two had been living separately.
The third daughter was also very fertile and gave birth to three grandsons in a row for the Gu family. Mother Gu was really proud at that time.
A woman with three children, although they live next door and can help a little, it is still very limited. The third daughter-in-law has a hard time alone.
Mother Gu is extremely satisfied with her third daughter-in-law. She is not a troublemaker or pretentious, can make a living and raise children, and can also earn a lot of money.
Before, she had always been worried about how the third son's family spent money lavishly and what she would do when the eldest and second sons got married.
Now she doesn't have to worry at all.
We are going to the old house for dinner tonight. Zhou Suisui can’t go empty-handed, so he should bring two dishes.
Make some stewed potatoes with pork ribs, and stir-fry some pig intestines. She also fried some radish balls two days ago and took them over to wash the dishes.
Sanwa ran over and said, "Mom, can I wear new clothes today?"
"No, tomorrow is the first day of the new year. Wear it tomorrow."
Sanwa nodded and ran away to play with his two brothers.
Today, Zhou Suisui took out a plate of peanuts and a plate of candies. There were fruit gummies, White Rabbit milk candies, and crispy candies, in many varieties.
Normally, Zhou Suisui would restrict a few children from eating candy, but now it is the New Year, so he can let them eat more. Now the three of them are gathered together to eat candy and peanuts.
Zhou Suisui was cooking in the kitchen. After a while, Shitou and Xiaoya from the eldest room came over to play with Dawa and the others.
"Big Boy, Second Boy, Third Boy, come and have some candy with your brother Shitou and your sister Xiaoya." Zhou Suisui shouted.
"I understand, Mom!" Big Boy responded loudly from inside the house.
Xiaoya is one year older than Sanwa. She is also very cute, especially since she is a little girl. She feels soft all over. She shakes her head when she talks, and the two little tufts of hair on her head are so cute.
Zhou Suisui suddenly remembered something and found a pair of hair ornaments from the space. They were red and made of fluffy gauze. They would look great on the little girl.
"Little girl, come to Third Aunt's place." Zhou Suisui waved.
The little girl came running over, "Aunt San, what's wrong?"
"Hey, this is a New Year's gift for you, do you like it?"
The little girl looked at the pair of flowers with shining eyes, "So beautiful, is this for me?"
"Yes, it's for our little girl. Can Auntie put it on you?"
"Okay." The little girl nodded repeatedly.
Zhou Suisui made two small buns for her hair, put a flower on it, and held a mirror for her to look at.
"Our little girl is so beautiful!" Zhou Suisui said with a smile.
"Yeah! Xiaoya is so beautiful." Xiaoya said with a blushing face, but her words were very blunt, making Zhou Suisui laugh out loud.
Sanwa came over and asked: "Mom, do my brother and I have any gifts?"
"Aren't they new clothes?"
"Oh okay."
Sanwa turned around and looked at Xiaoya and said, "Sister Xiaoya, you are pretty. Be my wife."
Zhou Suisui: ...
"Gu Mingrui! What nonsense are you talking about?"
Sanwa said naively: "What's wrong, mother? When we were playing house before, Sister Xiaoya was always my wife."
"She is your sister, not your wife."
"I know, but I don't really want her to be my wife." Sanwa pouted and ran away.
Zhou Suisui: ...
Don’t be angry during the New Year.
Give it to Xiaoya, and the two children from the second room cannot be left behind. They are both little girls, and you don’t want them to think that you, as their aunt, don’t like them.
The one given to Erhua was a pair of pink head flowers, and the one given to Dahua was a pair of red ones, which were different in style from Xiaoya's.
I took it away when I went to the old house in the evening.
Erhua said politely, "Thank you, Aunt San."
Dahua didn't say anything. It was only after Brother Gu said something that Dahua slowly said, "Thank you, Aunt San."
This pair of flowers is so beautiful that no girl would refuse it. Dahua also likes it very much.
Now, Gu's parents are very satisfied with their lives. All their sons and daughters have their own families. Except for the ungrateful Gu Lan, everyone else is living a good life.
In fact, after so long, Gu's mother's anger has subsided a little.
After all, she is my own daughter, how can I really hate her?
No matter how bad the child is, he is still his own flesh and blood. It's just that there is a thorn in his heart and he is not as good as before.
