Chapter 114 One-year-old babies are so cute

Dashuang, Xiaoshuang and Guoguo are very attached to Tong Shiyu. As long as Tong Shiyu is at home, they almost hang on to him.

At night, they also want Tong Shiyu to play with them.

Tong Shiyu wondered if the prenatal education that Ma Siqing mentioned worked?

He remembered that he was not close to his father when he was a child, and his father never took care of him for a few days. He was more attached to his mother.

Zhong Guofan came back in mid-October. During

this patrol, he encountered several hunters. Zhong Guofan helped the hunters find the injured hunting dogs, and the hunters gave him several skins. He

came back and gave three to Ma Siqing, who said they were too expensive and wanted to pay for them.

Zhong Guofan confiscated them and just said they were gifts for the three babies on their first birthday.

She could make leather jackets for the three siblings.

Ma Siqing looked at the leather and remembered that these animals were all rare and protected in her previous life. In the mid-to-late 1990s, Anling would also ban hunting completely.

After thanking Zhong Guofan, she asked Zhong Guofan to come to her house for meals in the future, and she would just have to add a pair of chopsticks.

Zhong Guofan happily agreed.

Ma Siqing thought that after the three babies had worn the leather jackets, she could keep one for Zhong Guofan, one for Sulan, and one for her own family as a keepsake.

Since Sulan had joined the army, she would soon be pregnant and have children.

Zhong Guofan would also get married and have children, so it would be just right for them.

Ma Siqing made the leather into three leather jackets that could be worn for several years.

There were some scraps left, and they were enough to make three hats when pieced together.

She couldn't help but thank Zhong Guofan even more.

After Tong Shiyu returned home, Ma Siqing asked Tong Shiyu to take good care of Zhong Guofan in the future.

When Ma Yuntian came home, he saw that the three children had added new clothes and brand new leather jackets, which looked warm.

He learned that it was Zhong Guofan who encountered a mysterious ethnic group that had lived in Anling for generations while on patrol, and he gave a thumbs up to Zhong Guofan's thoughtfulness.

He thought that if Zhong Guofan could be sent out next time and make merit, he could be promoted.

Chen Xiaowei and Sulan returned to the army on October 16.

Li Shiqiang drove to pick them up.

The two of them had seven or eight bags of things.

Tong Shiyu and Ma Siqing had known that they would be coming back that day, so they decorated the new house for them in advance.

The whole house was re-papered, and Tong Shiyu modified the stove for Chen Xiaowei, so that the house would be warmer when the stove was lit.

The kang was also dismantled and rebuilt to be connected to the kitchen.

The layout of Chen Xiaowei's house was better, with the kitchen in the middle and the rooms on both sides, so when the kitchen was lit, several rooms would be warm.

Unlike Ma Siqing's house, the kitchen was on the far left.

Tong Shiyu checked Chen Xiaowei's house and repaired anything that was broken and unusable.

Ma Siqing even asked Tong Shiyu to consult all the families in the compound and build a new toilet in the compound, so that it would be much more convenient to get up at night.

Otherwise, when they need to go to the toilet, they have to go 300 meters outside the compound to solve the problem.

When the couple was cleaning up the house at Chen Xiaowei's house, the three kids were playing nearby. They

were very well behaved.

Occasionally, Guoguo would hold a piece of wood and say to Ma Siqing: "Mom, fix it, fix it."

Girls speak more fluently, and Guoguo can speak simple sentences.

Dashuang and Xiaoshuang can only repeat words.

However, if the triplets are hungry, they will come up with golden sentences frequently.

Dashuang: "Mom, belly, belly." Pointing to her belly.

Xiaoshuang: "Mom, eat, eat." Pointing to the kitchen.

Guoguo: "Mom, drink milk."

After listening to the three little ones expressing their hunger, Ma Siqing carried one on her back and held the other two home to cook for them.

The three siblings were playing in the area in the kitchen that Ma Siqing had circled. In their hands were the building blocks that Tong Shiyu had made himself, and the toys that Ma Shuhua had given them.

The meals were all ready, and Ma Siqing only had to heat them up.

When it was time to feed the kids, Tong Shiyu came back.

Whenever Tong Shiyu was at home, he would feed two kids and Ma Siqing would feed one.

Today's meal was porridge.

Ma Siqing grabbed a handful of rice and chopped a piece of meat in the morning, and put them in to stew together.

When it was almost cooked, she added some finely chopped cabbage. When

she came back, she steamed the porridge and also steamed the eggs.

The three kids were never picky about food, and they ate everything with gusto.

The kids who were not picky about food grew up to be white and plump, and every time Ma Yuntian saw them, he wanted to take them home.

He was very proud in his heart. I wonder if the old man felt itchy that he couldn't see his three lovely grandchildren? He

remembered that when Ma Shuhua left, she asked him to take a picture of the three children and send it home for the old man to see.

On this day, Ma Yuntian happened to be free, so he pushed a cart from somewhere and was about to leave with the three children.

He asked Ma Siqing and Tong Shiyu behind him to dress up, and go to the military agency photo studio to take pictures today.

The three children were all dressed exactly the same today, military green cotton jackets.

Leather jackets are only needed when going out in October, but Ma Siqing usually doesn't take the children out at that time.

At most, she let them play in the snow at the door of the house.

When they arrived at the photo studio, they took pictures of the three children first.

When the people in the photo studio saw the triplets, they were so happy that they picked up the camera and started taking pictures.

Then Ma Siqing and Tong Shiyu arrived, and they coaxed the three kids to stand in order of age, and took two group photos.

Ma Siqing and Tong Shiyu took two group photos with the three kids.

Ma Yuntian took one group photo with the three kids.

Finally, the three adults and the triplets also took a group photo.

Ma Yuntian asked the people at the photo studio for color photos.

In those days, color photos had to be colored manually, which was very demanding.

It happened that there was a soldier in the military photo studio who had excellent skills. When the photos came out, Ma Yuntian couldn't let them go.

Especially the photos of the triplets, whose naive looks made people smile.

In the end, Ma Yuntian chose and chose but didn't know which one to send to his grandfather.

He didn't want to send it, and wanted to keep it for himself.

But his grandfather called him specifically and asked for photos of his three grandchildren.

He didn't dare to disobey his father's order, so Ma Yuntian finally chose a photo of the triplets standing in a row, and a photo of Ma Siqing's family and sent it back to Beijing.

When the Ma family grandfather received the photos, he smiled from ear to ear.

He put the photos in his pocket and told everyone he met that he had three grandchildren, triplets.

He also took out the photos for people to see.

Everyone who saw the photo praised the child, saying that the child was smart and cute and was well raised.

The old man wanted to go to Anling to take a look in person.

But it was already winter, and it was a bit cold in Beijing. It was already snowing in Anling, and it was really difficult for him, an old man, to move.

He thought that he would definitely go there next summer.

One day, Ma Shuhua took the photo from the old man when he was not paying attention.

The old man searched for it at home for a long time but couldn't find it.

Finally, Ma Yuntian's grandson found it in Ma Shuhua's room, and Ma Shuhua was scolded by the old man.

He said frankly that if Ma Shuhua hadn't abandoned Ma Siqing, would his grandson have ended up wandering outside?

Ma Shuhua was stunned by the scolding.

What she thought in her mind was: What kind of operation is this? It wasn't you who stopped me from being with Cheng Yuqing. You didn't agree to our marriage even when I was pregnant. You had to resort to this desperate measure.

How come it's now her fault alone?

Ma Shuhua directly retorted: "Dad, if you hadn't opposed it, you would have a pair of twins and a pair of triplets now."

"Siqing still doesn't recognize me. I don't know if she is willing to go back to the Ma family. When the time comes, you will have to be like me and can only watch from afar without saying anything!"

The old man was blocked by Ma Shuhua's words.
