When Zhao Liu saw Yang Liu, his eyes lit up like a dog seeing meat.
"You're finally here! Everyone in our factory says the vermicelli is delicious. They've asked me this several times. I've been waiting for you to finally come."
Zhao Liu was busy in the kitchen when the security guard at the door called him and said that a man named Yang was looking for him. He threw down the spatula and trotted over, not daring to delay for a moment.
Yang Liu smiled and said, "It's because of special reasons that I had to stop for several months. Now that I can do it again, I immediately sent you 20 kilograms."
Zhao Liu took the heavy bag of sweet potato starch from her hand. It was not the first time for the two of them to deal with each other, so they were more confident in each other. He didn't weigh it now because he knew that Yang Liu was a sincere person and would not lose weight.
The two men exchanged money and received the goods.
They agreed to meet once a week as before. Before, Yang Liu didn't have a child, so she could come any day. Now that she has a child, she set the date on Saturday so that Chu Yue doesn't have to go to work and can help take care of the child at home.
After getting the money, she went to the department store and bought some tight-fitting clothes. It seemed that since she gave birth to the child, she felt that some parts of her body had become visibly bigger, and the clothes inside were really tight.
When Chu Yue came back from Shanghai, she bought two rattles for the two kids. When they first got them, they loved playing with them, but now they seem to be tired of them, so she wanted to see if there were any other toys.
But after taking a look around, she found that the things here were very monotonous. Many of the toys were for slightly older children. She was afraid that if she bought them, her mother would accuse her of spending money indiscriminately, so she didn't buy any.
But when I went back, I still bought some snacks and pork.
I don’t know if it’s because the food she had during the confinement period was too good, with either meat or eggs every day. She is now picky about meat, and she will feel uncomfortable if she doesn’t eat meat for a few days.
When Yang Liu came back on her bike, she heard her son crying as soon as she reached the door. It was so loud that she knew it was Shi Tou crying.
She pushed the car in and put it aside, then said with a smile, "Mom, what happened to Shitou? He sounds very aggrieved."
"You're back just in time. They both took a nap. I saw that Wood woke up first, so I let him eat first. But when he was halfway through eating, Stone woke up. He saw his brother eating while he didn't, so he burst into tears."
This kid had a loud voice, and his yelling made her head buzz and hurt, and she was so busy that she was dizzy.
Yang Liu brought the second child over, slapped him on the butt, and said angrily, "You are such a little rascal! You almost made grandma faint with your noise."
As soon as she put the bottle into the little guy's mouth, he immediately stopped and kept sucking on the bottle with his little mouth, as if he hadn't eaten for several days.
She had clearly fed him before leaving this morning.
But now I'm starving.
She left the child in her care while Li Qiuhe packed up the things she had bought. Seeing that she had bought another five pounds of meat and two pounds of spareribs, she couldn't help but complain, "Why did you buy so much meat again, kid? We still have a lot left at home."
There was still meat at home from the previous purchase, but because the weather was hot, she was afraid it would go bad, so she pickled it all and put it in a jar.
Yang Liu knew that her parents especially liked to eat pickled pork, but they usually didn't want to eat it in order to save it for her. This time, she bought more meat just to let her mother know that life was getting better now and she was no longer as stuttering as before, so she could eat whatever she wanted.
Although I can't eat meat and fish every meal, I still have the financial ability to eat something like this occasionally.
"Don't worry, Mom. Our family will be better and better. Don't be reluctant to eat. Only when you are healthy can you and my dad help me take care of them."
After she finished speaking, she bent down and kissed her son, then asked with a smile, "Isn't that right? Shitou, grandma will have to take our Shitou to school in the future."
Although Li Qiuhe blamed her for spending money lavishly, she was still very touched by her filial piety.
In the evening, I stewed potatoes with fresh pork ribs, and then baked corn tortillas along the edge of the pot. Added with boiled rice soup, this meal was quite sumptuous.
This year is a special year. Several major events have occurred in the country, and the lives of ordinary people have also been affected.
However, no matter how the situation changes, the most important thing for the common people is to fill their stomachs and do their work in the fields well.
Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, the wood and the stone are one year old.
Originally, Yang Guoqing wanted to hold a grand party like the full moon party, but since this year was special, Yang Liu didn't want to attract attention at this critical juncture to avoid unnecessary trouble. In the end, he only invited his second uncle's family. They closed the door, had a meal together as a family, and celebrated well.
In order to leave a good memory for the two children, Yang Liu also asked Chu Yue to buy the raw materials for making the cake from Shanghai. She had tried it several times at home before, but at the beginning, due to lack of experience and poor control of the amount of many seasonings, it was not very successful.
This time, on the day her child turned one, she finally succeeded. Although it was far inferior to those bought in cake shops, it looked pretty good.
Since there was no chocolate, she used carrots instead and carved them into the shapes of several smiling faces, which looked unique.
Mu Tou and Shi Tou are already one year old. They both have good language talent. They could start babbling simple words when they were only eight months old. Now they can say "Mommy" and other slightly complex words fluently.
Although their first birthday party today was not a big one, Yang Liu still dressed the two brothers in new clothes according to the usual custom. They were both red shorts and small jackets. She also drew a red dot in the middle of their foreheads with red ink, and one of them had a triangle hanging around his neck.
This was sewn by Li Qiuhe stitch by stitch. It contains rice and talismans, which are said to ward off evil spirits and ensure safety.
The two brothers both look like Yang Liu, with fair and tender skin. Wearing red clothes, they look like the boy who distributes wealth under the seat of Guanyin, very cute.
Anyone who sees it will love it.
As soon as Yao Caiying arrived, she held the stone tightly and refused to let go. In her words, she wished she could take such a beautiful baby home and raise it herself.
When the meal started, Shitou saw the delicious food on the table and panicked. He kicked and jumped in Yao Caiying's arms, reaching for the table with both hands, fearing that the delicious food would be eaten by others. He kept shouting, "Mom, eat some cakes."
Yang Liu felt helpless when she saw how impatient he was. She didn't know whether her son inherited his love for food from her. After all, she was particularly greedy during her pregnancy.
