Fortunately, Xiaoyi was not as difficult to take care of as before, and he only made a fuss this time the whole night.
The three of them slept until morning, and Xiaoyi and Fu Jingchen woke up first.
Not long after, the light outside became brighter and brighter, and Jiang Yuman showed signs of waking up.
Seeing this, Fu Jingchen reached out and gently covered her eyes.
The mornings were getting earlier and earlier, and it was not yet time for Jiang Yuman to get up, so she could sleep a little longer.
Noticing that her breathing had returned to normal, Fu Jingchen turned sideways and kept this posture.
When Xiaoyi woke up, he was anxious and tried to grab Fu Jingchen's hand again, shouting "Yeah" again.
"Hush, don't move." Fu Jingchen motioned for him to be quiet.
Xiao Yi opened his eyes wide, looked at her blankly for a while, then turned his head to look at Jiang Yuman. This time he did not move, but called out loudly, "Um, Mom, Mom."
Fu Jingchen: “…….”
Jiang Yuman had not been sleeping soundly since she came, and was woken up by Cheng.
As soon as she opened her eyes, her thick eyelashes scratched Fu Jingchen's palm back and forth like a small brush.
This itchy feeling seemed to be transmitted directly to his heart through his palm.
Fu Jingchen took his hand back uncomfortably.
Here, Xiaoyi became even more excited when he saw that Jiang Yuman's face was not covered. He fluttered his hands and feet and called for his mother.
"Do you have an alarm clock? It starts ringing so early in the morning?"
Jiang Yuman came forward and rubbed against him, making him laugh out loud.
When going out for breakfast, Fu's mother laughed and said, "I just woke up and heard Xiaoyi laughing in the yard."
Fu Haitang said directly: "You are getting better and better."
Xiaoyi seemed to know that everyone was praising him, and he smiled so hard that his eyes were invisible.
But it turns out that the child's face is like the weather in June.
When Fu Jingchen was about to send Jiang Yuman to school, he opened his mouth and started crying. When he saw his parents turning around, he quickly opened his arms towards them.
Fu Haitang was surprised, "Oh, the little fat guy recognizes people."
"Grandma, hold Xiaoyi." Mother Fu carried him into the house and patted his back to comfort him.
Don't let him look at Jiang Yuman and the others, just turn your head away.
Xiaoyi has been taken care of by his grandmother for such a long time and is very close to her, so he will be fine after crying a few times.
But as Jiang Yuman rode her bicycle to school, she felt bad thinking about his pitiful appearance.
I can only comfort myself and cheer myself up to get through this period.
Compared with when I first went to the countryside, the situation is already many times better now, and it will be even better after I return to Beijing.
…
As the weather gradually warmed up, Yao Zhenjiang's house was completed.
After the house was repaired and they moved out, the couple discussed it and decided to invite the brothers who helped them to their new home for dinner.
Yao San's daughter-in-law came to Fu's house specially and asked them to go with her whole family.
Jiang Yuman couldn't refuse, and she happened to be collecting her salary at school, so she put away her food coupons and took out cornmeal from her space to bring with her.
This is their food ration for this meal.
When inviting guests to dinner, if the whole family comes, they usually bring enough food for one meal.
Otherwise, the food is limited, and after this meal, the host will be hungry the rest of the time.
Of course Jiang Yuman thought of this.
Not only that, she was grateful to Yao Zhenjiang and his wife for helping her so much. In addition to cornmeal, she also gave them half a bowl of beef and eggs.
The latter was not taken out of the bag in front of everyone, but when he entered the kitchen.
"Yuman, why are you giving this to me?"
Seeing this, Yao San's wife quickly waved her hands and said, "Today we are here to thank you for your help and treat you to a meal. Why are you..."
"With the relationship between us, why are we still saying these polite words?"
Jiang Yuman smiled and said, "You are moving into a new home, so you can receive gifts. Your life will be more prosperous in the future. This is our housewarming gift!"
Having said that, Yao San's wife couldn't say no.
She wiped her hands with her apron, took the things, and the more she looked at them, the more moved she became.
Thanks to Yao Zhenjiang's experience in the black market, she knew that beef was not easy to get.
At this time, cattle are used as laborers and are treasures in any brigade. If they are not sick and cannot be cured, who would be willing to kill them?
Besides, this beef doesn't look like sick beef, so it must be in short supply.
With mixed feelings, he held her hand and said, "This is so precious. I don't know how to thank you."
Jiang Yuman said, "Please help me make some clothes when you have time. I will be very grateful."
Hearing this, Yao San's wife burst out laughing.
He agreed, "That's no problem. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to ask."
There was give and take, and the pressure in her heart suddenly eased a lot.
"Okay, I'll help you cook too." Seeing that she was busy alone, Jiang Yuman simply rolled up her sleeves to help.
The two of them talked and laughed, and they enjoyed cooking.
As they were talking, the topic unconsciously turned to the old couple of the Yao family.
"We insisted on moving out, and they tried to beg us with soft words at first, but when we actually moved our things, they wanted to throw all our things out."
Yao San's wife thought about this and held her breath, "But now we've moved out and are across the road. At least it's not like before, where we couldn't see each other when we looked up."
Jiang Yuman also sighed when she heard this.
When they first came, the Yao family was so prosperous, but in such a short time, they fell into such a state.
As if she could see what Jiang Yuman was thinking, Yao San's wife said, "The family has fallen to this point, and you still don't want Yao Simeng?"
"Yes, I heard that she is not doing well now. Her mother-in-law is very powerful. Just look at her on the day of her wedding. She keeps a close eye on her."
"I've been married for so long, but I haven't even come back to my parents' home once."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuman felt very complicated.
There must be something hateful about a pitiful person. She caused such an ending.
Yao San's daughter-in-law knew about the grudge between the two and had no intention of making fun of a woman's tragic marriage.
The topic ended here, and the two quickly talked about other things.
After finishing the work, Jiang Yuman helped her serve the dishes.
Everyone who was guarding in the living room hurried to help, serving dishes, taking bowls and chopsticks, and placing the stools.
After everyone had taken their seats, team leader Liu Qinggang arrived late.
This time the house was built, thanks to Liu Qinggang. As soon as Liu Qinggang became the team leader, Yao Zhenjiang went to him to explain the situation, and only then did he get the land to build the house.
So they also invited Liu Qinggang to come.
He was the only one from the Liu family who came, but in order not to lose face for the captain, he also brought some rations.
We all lived in the same village, so no one felt uncomfortable at the dinner table. We drank some homemade wine and felt very happy.
After three rounds of drinks, they finished talking and got down to business.
The boys asked him when he was going to buy pesticides.
Yao Zhenjiang said: "Captain, when you go to the meeting today, are you going to talk about fertilizer?"
“No.”
Liu Qinggang waved his hand and said, "You don't know, yesterday a senior leader came to the neighboring farm for research, and he might even come to our Hongqi Commune."
"The people in the commune held a meeting today and talked about this matter."
