Chapter 69 Making Friends on a Boat

The baby stroller made by Lu Yingzheng was extremely cool as soon as it appeared.

This day happened to be the day that Lu Yingzheng went to the train station to pick up Yu Cuilan.

In the afternoon, Yu Xiangwan estimated that the time was about right, so she put the twins in the stroller and went to the intersection with Xiao Xiao to wait.

The sun is not very strong at this time, so the two little guys can bask in the sun.

It was the first time for Nianlin and Nianyan to sit in a stroller, which was quite high and was very unusual for both of them.

Yu Xiangwan and Lu Yingzheng tried their best to find milk powder coupons and found ways to increase nutrition for the two little guys. Nianlin and Nianyan both developed well.

Now he can sit up and has started to crawl.

Now we have a new space like this, which is very fresh for the two little guys.

The babbling of babies could be heard all the time, and the two of them were particularly excited to talk to Yu Xiangwan and Xiao Xiao, as if they wanted to tell them something.

Yu Xiangwan responded while pushing the stroller out.

The rate of passers-by turning their heads is 100%.

Mrs. Yang followed and circled around: "This is really..."

Yu Xiangwan and Lu Yingzheng are the only couple who dote on their children like this.

While others haven't even started riding second-hand bicycles, he has already made four-wheeled vehicles for two little girls using a few wheels!

Mrs. Yang looked at the two children with satisfaction. She was not wrong. The two children were enjoying a good life with Wanwan and Lu Yingzheng.

In the few days since they came to the camp, they have only gotten to know a few sisters-in-law.

As soon as the baby stroller appeared, the sisters-in-law gathered around to look at it and talk.

Both children are the type of children who get more excited the more people there are. They are not afraid at all and are extremely excited.

When others were chatting, they also made sounds as if they wanted to join in.

The sisters-in-law all thought it was very cute and started to tease the child.

The two sides suddenly closed the distance between them.

A sister-in-law named Lin Meng touched the fence and said, "There is not a single burr on it. It is covered with straw mats and it is still soft."

Yu Xiangwan explained: "The child is young and has tender skin, so we have to be careful."

"It should be," a sister-in-law named Chen Ran agreed, "My boy was almost stabbed before."

"These wheels are difficult to operate, right?" someone asked.

Yu Xiangwan replied: "It's very difficult, but I have no other choice."

"My children are still young and need help. I definitely can't carry two of them on my back, so how can I do my job? That's why I came up with this idea."

"When I'm working, I just put them in the car. They won't get bumped or fall, and it's convenient for me to keep an eye on them."

Now, the sisters-in-law understood everything very well.

All of them have brought up children.

"Yeah, one child is fine, but two children are really hard to deal with."

Yu Xiangwan seemed to have found a soulmate, and said with emotion: "That's right, we have to do this."

After hearing this, many people who wanted to pry into the matter stopped asking any more questions.

They come here to take care of the kids.

When they were almost finished talking, Lu Yingzheng and Yu Cuilan happened to arrive.

These sisters-in-law were all smart. When they saw that Lu Yingzheng and Yu Cuilan looked 50% alike, they roughly guessed the relationship. Some enthusiastic sisters-in-law came forward to say hello, but they left soon.

After Lu Yingzheng and Yu Cuilan responded one by one, the family began to talk.

"Oh, my daughter," Yu Cuilan was really happy. She looked at the twins in the stroller, "My eldest granddaughter!"

Although I have only been back to the village for a short time, it really feels like a long time since I last saw you.

"Come on, Mom, let's talk while we go back." Yu Xiangwan called.

Yu Cuilan: “Okay, okay!”

The reason Yu Cuilan came here this time was not only to get familiar with the route, but also because she was worried about whether Yu Xiangwan would be able to take care of the child after he grew up.

Now when I see this baby stroller, I can't help but be amazed.

“It looks very convenient to have this car.”

If it happened in the village, it would be too arrogant and the villagers would definitely gossip about it.

But here, Yu Cuilan let go.

She felt that other people's conditions must be better than hers, as they just had a stroller.

"This tire looks like it has been used by someone else, right?"

Yu Xiangwan nodded: "Mom, that's right, they were all collected by Lu Yingzheng."

"Okay, okay, be frugal and don't waste money." Yu Cuilan said.

She thought of the meals she had when she lived with her son and daughter-in-law last time, and also of the money they had given her back. This time she decided to subsidize them well.

Her daughter and granddaughters all live here, and her money will be left for them in the future. If she doesn't spend it now, when will she spend it?

I think Xiang Hong thinks the same way.

Yu Cuilan said, "Your parents, brother and sister-in-law asked me to bring a lot of things over."

Yu Xiangwan was looking forward to it: "Okay!"

"But don't worry, when we get home later, you can take a shower first and make yourself comfortable!"

Yu Xiangwan handed the child over to Lu Yingzheng, who made all the necessary arrangements for Yu Cuilan.

After dinner, Yu Xiangwan finally saw the gifts given by his parents, brother and sister-in-law.

Li Yumei made two beautiful sets of clothes and also made a coat for Xiao Xiao.

Also, I made two sachets using small pieces of cloth.

This is what Yu Xiangwan mentioned when she was in the village. She just said it casually at the time and never thought that Li Yumei would remember it.

Yu Xiangwan touched the fine stitches and said, "My sister-in-law has great craftsmanship."

【I just can’t do that.】

Yu Cuilan agreed: "Your sister-in-law is very attentive and her craftsmanship is really the best in the village."

"That's right!" Yu Cuilan winked at Yu Xiangwan.

"I came here this time to bring you good news!"

Yu Xiangwan: "What good news?"

Yu Cuilan was so happy that she showed her big teeth: "Your sister-in-law is pregnant!"

Yu Xiangwan opened his mouth in surprise.

"real?"

"real!"

Yu Xiangwan was so happy for her brother that she kept spinning around.

Although she personally doesn't like having children, it doesn't mean that others think so.

As far as she knew, Li Yumei had always wanted to have a child.

She respects other people's ideas very much.

"Is my sister-in-law happy?" Yu Xiangwan asked.

Yu Cuilan was a little surprised: "Why do you ask? Of course I am happy. Your family is very happy!"

Yu Xiangwan smiled: "Just be happy."

【Mother’s happiness is the most important thing.】

Yu Cuilan said, "Your sister-in-law also asked you to give it a name and let me take it back."

Yu Xiangwan was surprised again and pointed at herself: "Me?"

Yu Cuilan: “Yes.”

Yu Xiangwan waved her hand: "I won't name it, let my sister-in-law name it."

"That's what your sister-in-law said. Yumei specifically told your whole family that she hopes you will name the child, saying that you have studied in high school and are amazing, and she hopes the child will be like you." Yu Cuilan explained with a smile, with a proud glow in her eyes.

Yu Xiangwan felt guilty.???

[This child was born to my sister-in-law, not me, so it would be inappropriate for me to name him.]

However, she also knew that it was pointless to continue arguing with Yu Cuilan because the person involved was not there and neither of them could make the decision.

Yu Xiangwan said, "Then I'll think of two names. I'll write them in the letter and you can take it back for me."

【I will explain it clearly in the letter.】

Yu Xiangwan said, "Mom, you should get some rest early. We'll go to the county town to take a boat tomorrow! We've been here for so long, but we've never taken a boat before. We're waiting for you to come along."

Yu Cuilan felt warm in her heart. Is there anything more gratifying than knowing that her children are thinking about her?

no!

"Okay, okay, let's go take a boat ride tomorrow."

Yu Xiangwan had already arranged the itinerary: "After the boat ride, we'll go find a teacher for Xiao Xiao."

Yu Cuilan came here for this matter.

She always keeps her daughter in her heart.

Considering that there were two people, Yu Xiangwan asked Yu Cuilan and Xiao Xiao to move to the big room.

Yu Cuilan was sleeping in bed and she seemed to still hear the sound of the waves.

Early the next morning, she walked out to the balcony and could still see the sea, which was a truly different experience.

Yu Xiangwan made corn cakes and cold salad for breakfast, and also made a large dish of steamed eggs.

Lu Yingzheng still has to go to work, so it’s all the girls traveling today.

Yu Xiangwan looked at the cart with regret.

[What a pity! This big cart is very practical and convenient in the camp, but if you want to go out, a small cart is better.]

[The wheels of the cart must be the small wheels used on hospital beds. If Lu Yingzheng could find discarded small wheels from hospital beds, he would definitely be able to make them.]

After hearing this, Lu Yingzheng decided to ask someone to keep an eye on it.

As for what the cart looks like, he can slowly test Yu Xiangwan later.

Over there.

Yu Xiangwan brought Yu Cuilan, Xiao Xiao and the twins on board.

She and Yu Cuilan each held a child, while Xiao Xiao held the gifts that would be given later, so it wasn't too troublesome.

As soon as they got on the boat, they found their seats.

Yu Cuilan rarely had the opportunity to see the sea, so she stretched her neck to look out.

Yu Xiangwan also found it strange.

Suddenly, she saw a little boy of about two or three years old sticking his head out from the railing.

She hurried over and grabbed the little boy.

"Little boy, don't stick your head out. It's dangerous."

The little boy was pretty and didn't cry.

At this time, a woman in her thirties came over in a hurry: "Rui Rui, what's wrong?"

"This comrade?"

Yu Xiangwan explained what he had just seen: "It's better to be careful on the boat."

"Oh, thank you, thank you, comrade."

"My name is Fang Mei, thank you so much."

Fang Mei only has this one child, and she felt a little scared when she heard Yu Xiangwan say this.

Yu Xiangwan shook his head: "You're welcome."

She turned and returned to her seat.

Fang Mei thought about it, followed her, and saw that Yu Cuilan had a child in her arms. Her eyes moved between Nian Lin and Nian Yan, and she quickly understood.

However, the little boy named Ruirui was very surprised when he saw two dolls that looked exactly the same: "Mom, they look alike."

Fang Mei sat down holding the child and explained in a low voice: "Because these are twins."

She turned around and asked Yu Xiangwan: "Right? Girl."

Yu Xiangwan thought, since I'm bored anyway, I might as well just chat.

She nodded: "Yes, our children are twins."

Fang Mei stared at them intently, looking very curious: "They are so well-fed, white and plump. If I'm not mistaken, they are two girls?"

Yu Xiangwan touched Nian Yan who was trying to reach out and touch Ruirui: "Yes, two girls."

Nian Yan thought it was encouragement and tried even harder to play with his older brother.

The two chatted about children for a while, and Yu Xiangwan also asked about where the art teacher lived.

They did visit the place last time they came to the county town and remembered the location, but they could only take a quick look and had no idea what the people who lived there were like.

After all, Xiao Xiao is a girl, so it’s better to be careful.

"Hey, where are you going?" Fang Mei high-fived. "I live on that street."

Yu Xiangwan was shocked.

What a coincidence?

She quickly and secretly inquired about the people living there and found out if they were good people.

"Don't worry, the people living there have been neighbors for more than ten years, and there are no evil people there."

Fang Mei was very sensible. She knew they were going to visit relatives and did not ask too much about their relatives' information.

Yu Xiangwan really likes this sense of propriety.

Fang Mei's eyes fell vaguely on the twins: "Xiang Wan, can I ask where you bought your children's clothes?"

"My sister is about to give birth, and people around me say it's likely to be a girl, and I thought your dress looks great."

Yu Xiangwan chuckled.

Nian Lin and Nian Yan do have the potential to bring goods, but it’s a pity that they can’t do business privately now.

She secretly sighed what a pity.

However...

"This is made of cloth myself." Yu Xiangwan whispered, "If you like, I can make you a small set."

She puts a lot of thought into the skirts she makes for her children.

She dressed up Nian Lin and Nian Yan as if they were dolls.

There is a saying in later generations: Isn’t the purpose of having children just for fun?

She used to love playing with Barbie.

When the child grows up and wants to have long hair, she will let Lu Yingzheng learn how to braid his hair, hahaha.

She had seen many short videos of fathers helping their daughters with their hair before. There were all kinds of weird and strange hairstyles, very curly, but they were beautiful and fun!

Fang Mei was overjoyed: "How can I do that? How much..."

Yu Xiangwan held her hand and said, "Just think of it as making friends."

Yu Xiangwan saw that Fang Mei was well dressed and Ruirui in her arms was not wearing any old clothes. Based on this alone, she felt that Fang Mei must have a good family background.

She just needed a local to talk about the situation here.

"Sister Mei, we just arrived not long ago and are not familiar with the county town. I wonder if you can tell us where to buy things?"

Yu Xiangwan swore that she meant it literally.

Unexpectedly, Fang Mei gave her a big surprise.

"Did you just get here?"

Yu Xiangwan mentioned the camp?

It's no secret.

Everyone in the county knows where it is.

Fang Mei pondered for a moment and said, "Of course the supply and marketing cooperative is the best place to buy things, as for other places... forget it."

"Well, I happen to have a batch of defective fabrics at the supply and marketing cooperative. I'll give you my share."

Yu Xiangwan's eyes widened, his heart filled with ecstasy.

With this idea in mind, fabric is hard to buy, and defective fabric is even harder to find.

Fang Mei probably made this decision for the sake of their residence, but, at the beginning, the interaction between strangers was mutually beneficial.

There are some who feel like old friends at first sight, but they are few.

As you get along with each other gradually, perhaps true love will develop.

Yu Xiangwan said without pretense: "Then I won't be polite to you, Sister Mei."

She pointed at the two children and said, "I don't want to let my two daughters suffer, so I want to make some clothes for them. I don't want all of them, I just want half."

【Babies! New clothes are here! 】
