Everyone understood.
He wants Jiubao to be with him!
Liu Xu was a little embarrassed, "Mom will bring you back to see your sister after the New Year, okay? Can we go to grandpa and grandma's house?"
"No! Wow!"
Everyone was getting anxious. Third Brother Huang suddenly thought of something and took something out of his pocket and waved it in front of Ah Fu.
"Don't cry, don't cry. Look at the little gift that our uncle gave to our Ah Fu."
What Huang San took out was a wooden carved bird.
Little Afu was indeed attracted by the wooden bird and stared at it intently.
Seeing this, Liu Xu quickly picked up Ah Fu and ran away.
After Liu Xu and Aunt Yang left, the house suddenly felt a little deserted, but fortunately Grandpa Su and Grandma Su were at home.
Su Mianmian and Su Qingqing were busy frying meatballs, fried dough twists and steamed buns every day in preparation for the New Year.
This way, time passes quickly.
…
"Come on, come on, it's time to put up the couplets."
On the afternoon of New Year's Eve, A Yan woke up from his nap and saw Su Qingcheng standing at the door.
"Brother, wait for Ah Yan. Ah Yan will come over after washing his face and clearing his mind."
"Okay, wait. After you finish washing, go to the kitchen and get the batter your sister made so we can put up the couplets."
"Okay."
After Xiao Ayan finished washing up, he went to the kitchen to get the batter and went to find Su Qingcheng.
The two of them went to stick it on the gate first.
"Brother, it's crooked, click it this way."
"Okay, I'll move."
"Okay, it's straight."
"That's right, big brother, you are awesome!"
There were sounds of firecrackers outside, which sounded quite lively.
Grandpa Su walked over from a distance and asked, "Why are you two so slow at pasting? Do you need my help?"
Little Ayan shook his head and said, "Grandpa, we've just started, so let's go slow. You take a break, my brother and I are here!"
Grandpa Su snorted and laughed, "Why, do you think an old man like me is useless?"
"No, I don't dislike Grandpa. My brother and I can handle this little thing."
After saying that, he patted his chest.
"Then I'll go in and see our Jiubao."
"Okay."
Grandpa Su put his hands behind his back and went to Jiubao's house.
Grandma Su was teasing Jiubao in the house.
Grandpa Su sat next to Grandma Su and said, "Jiubao, great-grandfather is here. Do you miss him?"
As she said this, she reached out and poked Jiubao's face. Grandma Su glared at him unhappily.
"You should at least learn from the kids and stop poking around."
Grandpa Su smiled awkwardly, "Isn't it because Jiubao is so cute? I couldn't help myself."
Grandpa Su held Jiubao in his arms and casually asked, "Where are Mianmian and the others?"
"Mianmian and Qingqing went to the kitchen to work, while Ayuan and Huaichuan went to the cowshed to deliver something."
Speaking of the cowshed, a trace of sadness flashed in Grandma Su's eyes. "Old man, is there really no way to transfer Ah Xin and Ah Xian back to the city?"
Grandpa Su shook his head, feeling bad when he thought of his youngest son and daughter-in-law who were still suffering in the cowshed, but there was no way he could transfer them back to the city.
Grandpa Su suddenly thought of the letter he received a few days ago, and he felt much more at ease.
He reached out and patted Grandma Su's hand, comforting her: "Don't worry, there will be people who have been rehabilitated and will return to the city by the end of this year. We just have to wait. One day our family will be reunited."
Grandma Su was delighted when she heard this. "How did you know? Can we really go back to the city?"
Grandpa Su nodded. "Really? The letter that the eldest brother sent a few days ago was brought back to me by Qing Cheng. You came to Mian Mian's house to sleep that day. I read it that night and forgot about it the next day."
Grandpa Su patted his head and said, "I'm old! I'm useless! My memory is not good anymore."
Grandma Su slapped him in the face. "What do you mean by useless? Don't tell me that nonsense.
I'm still waiting for Ashin and his wife to return to the city so we can be reunited as a family."
Grandpa Su chuckled and said, "Yes, you are right."
"Ah, we old couple are so sorry for Ashin. We haven't been around since he was young, and he encountered trouble again when we found him."
Thinking of the past, Grandma Su couldn't help feeling sad.
"Everything will be fine."
"Yes, he will be fine. I used to think I would never find Ah Xin until I died, but I didn't expect that not only did I find him, but he also recovered."
Grandpa Su's expression changed, "Don't be so unlucky. It's unlucky."
Speaking of his wife's illness, he couldn't help but sigh in amazement, "You've been in the country and are getting better since you came to see the two children."
Grandma Su couldn't help but laugh, "Yes."
At this time, Su Qingqing walked into the room, "Grandpa and grandma, what did you do?"
Grandma Su: "Nothing, your grandpa and I were just chatting."
"Grandma, can you help us make dumplings?"
Grandma Su waved her hands repeatedly and said, "Let your grandpa come, and I'll be in charge of cooking."
Grandpa Su laughed and said, "Come on, Grandpa and you two will make it, and let your grandma make it. No one of us will have New Year's Eve dinner tonight."
Grandma Su was embarrassed and glared at Grandpa Su.
Su slapped his head lightly, he forgot that the women in the Su family were not very good at cooking.
However, there is an exception like Mianmian. Oh yes, she is half an exception, at least she can make pancakes and cook dough.
"Grandpa, just wash your hands and go."
"Well, Grandpa, please wash your hands first. Qingqing and I will bring the filling and dumpling wrappers over and start making them in the house. It will be lively."
Grandpa Su nodded and went to wash his hands.
Su Qingqing went to the kitchen to help Su Mianmian bring the things over.
Jiubao looked curiously at the things in his mother and aunt's hands. They were white and he liked them.
She stretched out her chubby hand and pointed
She said "ah ah", which probably meant that she wanted it.
Su Mianmian didn't dare to give it to her. After thinking about it, she went to the kitchen and got a small white flour bun with a red dot on it.
She steamed a lot of buns, several big ones and some regular-sized ones.
Su Mianmian gave her the steamed bun.
The little fat girl was holding a steamed bun that was bigger than her hand and smiling so hard that her teeth were showing.
"Grandma, keep an eye on her and don't let her feed it." Su Mianmian instructed.
Grandma Su nodded, "Okay, don't worry."
At this time, Grandpa Su came in after washing his hands.
"Mianmian, you roll out the dough, and Qingqing and I will wrap it. Forget it, let's just wrap it and let Qingqing roll out the dough."
He remembered that when Su Qingqing was making dumplings at home during the Chinese New Year, she couldn't wrap them properly and the stuffing came out. The dumplings fell apart before they were even put into the pot to cook.
Su Mianmian chuckled and nodded.
Su Qingqing stamped her feet in anger. Oh well, she really didn’t wrap it very well.
This was the scene that Su Qingcheng and Xiao Ayan saw when they came back after pasting the couplets for the three families.
Jiubao was lying on the kang, holding a steamed bun made of white flour and trying to stuff it into his mouth. Grandma Su kept trying to stop him, and the little fat kid reached out to grab it anxiously.
Grandpa Su and Su Mianmian were making dumplings on the ground, and Su Qingqing was rolling the dough.
Su Qingcheng rolled up his sleeves and went out to wash his hands, then came in to help Su Mianmian and Grandpa Su.
