Volume 1 Chapter 303 Yi Yi's Separate Small Bed
Yi Yi heard the voice and looked over curiously. Hearing the childlike story and tone of voice, he was so excited.
Seeing that she was interested and focused on the story machine, Sheng Wanyan sat at the desk beside her and did her own thing.
For dinner, Sheng Wanyan still took it out from the space, so she and Gu Tingxiao didn’t need to prepare too much.
Just make some simple noodles and eat them. With the company of the story machine, Yi Yi doesn't need her to be with her all the time.
Sheng Wanyan looked at the time and it was already half past five, so she could go cook noodles and wait for Gu Tingxiao to get off work.
It was exactly 5:50 when the food was cooked, and Sheng Wanyan went to put the story machine into the space.
Yi Yi didn't cry when he heard no sound, but instead looked for the sound curiously.
She didn't get angry when she didn't find it. After all, her mother didn't talk all the time when she was chatting with her.
Sheng Wanyan fed Yi Yi milk, but Yi Yi was very hungry at this time.
After drinking milk, Gu Tingxiao came back from get off work, still holding the food from the cafeteria in his hand.
He was worried that his wife didn't have time to cook, so he packed food from the canteen and brought it back.
As soon as I got home and saw two bowls of egg noodles on the dining table, I knew that my wife made them.
All the food that was packed back was added with extra dishes.
"Wife, are you making a fuss?"
"Don't make any noise. Play gongs and drums in the crib this afternoon."
Sheng Wanyan lied with her eyes open, without any embarrassment at all.
"Make a small toy for Yi Yi that can be placed on the crib."
"It would be best if there was a bell that made a sound."
What Sheng Wanyan wanted was the little bell in the crib of later generations, which would make a sound when kicked.
It is just right for Yi Yi to use for exercise, and it can also train Yi Yi's ability to lift his head.
When Gu Tingxiao heard what his wife said, he could roughly guess what it was like. Sheng Wanyan directly drew a simple blueprint for him.
Just hang a few strings of bells on a wooden frame, and they will make sounds when you touch them.
"Anything small that makes a sound will do."
Sheng Wanyan wanted different sounds, and she would never get tired of listening to them one by one.
When Gu Tingxiao saw the blueprint, he knew what to do. The army had no shortage of these jingling things.
Gu Tingxiao is smart and if something doesn’t exist, he will make one himself.
Use a few small pieces of iron and put them in a small ball woven with bamboo. You can hear the sound of the iron pieces when you move it.
He also took a few bells from the army and searched the art troupe.
I brought back any small, useless thing that could make a sound.
Clean it and sand it with sandpaper to make sure it won't scratch Yi Yi's feet.
Sheng Wanyan saw that Gu Tingxiao had finished it, so she took out disinfectant and soaked it again after he went to work.
Only then was it wiped clean and put in Yi Yi's crib.
It is installed at a height that is just within reach of a small foot.
Yi Yi was kicking her feet as usual, and when she kicked, she heard a jingling sound.
I looked around out of curiosity, but didn't see anything, so I thought I was hallucinating.
He continued to kick his feet for fun, and the sound came out again.
Yi Yi now looked at his feet curiously and raised his head to look up.
When Sheng Wanyan saw it, she knew that this thing was done correctly, and she didn't have to find ways to exercise on her own.
Yi Yi was having so much fun playing that Sheng Wanyan didn’t need to take out the storytelling machine. After all, children also need to learn to concentrate.
If there are too many things attracting her, she will be easily distracted.
With new toys, Sheng Wanyan also has more time to do her own things.
Sheng Wanyan cleaned the house and tidied up the kitchen and cellar.
She didn't cook lunch, but ate the ready-made food from the space.
After Gu Tingxiao came back and finished his lunch, he still took his daughter for a nap.
Sheng Wanyan also went in to rest for a while. Now that Yi Yi had new toys, she didn't have to do the work specially while she was resting.
Gu Tingxiao saw that she was not translating today and went to bed to take a nap together, so he gave her the warm seat.
He held the girl in his arms and used his hands to block the light coming in from the window for her.
Although the windows of the room were covered with cloth, it was not the blackout cloth used in later times, so light still came in.
Sheng Wanyan likes the sight of sunlight shining into the room when she wakes up.
This way you will feel warm and not feel depressed.
Gu Tingxiao blocked the light and patted her back gently so that she could sleep more comfortably.
Sheng Wanyan buried her face in his chest and fell asleep hugging his strong waist.
A family of three is taking a relaxing lunch break. The little one is sleeping in the crib, resting with his parents.
When Gu Tingxiao woke up, Sheng Wanyan and Yiyi were still resting.
Gu Tingxiao checked the quilt for his wife and daughter, pulled the corners of the quilt, kissed them each, and then went out to work.
It was already 2:30 in the afternoon when Sheng Wanyan woke up. Yi Yi usually slept until 3:00.
She had half an hour, so Sheng Wanyan asked Maodou to watch her one by one as usual.
I went into the space and used the time difference to translate.
Half a month passed in a flash, and the Ice City officially entered winter with heavy snow falling outside.
Sheng Wanyan was afraid that Yi Yi would catch a cold, so she put her on the kang to play during the day, which must be warmer than the crib.
Sheng Wanyan thought about it and decided that she had to make a small kang.
In winter, if you light the fire, you can sleep more comfortably.
After all, a crib is no different from an ordinary bed. How could a child survive in such a cold place like Ice City?
In the evening, Sheng Wanyan specially brought in a coal stove and lit it up, warming the room.
"It's too cold. I can't sleep at night."
"We still have to make a small kang for Yi Yi."
Gu Tingxiao nodded, even though the crib had warm bedding.
But in the Ice City, no matter how many quilts you cover yourself with, you can't resist the cold.
"Let Yiyi sleep with us for a few days. I'll go fetch bricks and do it tomorrow."
Although Gu Tingxiao wanted to sleep with his wife in his arms, the situation was the most important.
At noon the next day, Gu Tingxiao and Sheng Wanze brought back bricks and soil.
The small kang can be made into a general size of a children's bed, large enough for a five-year-old child to lie down.
It was just right for him to sit at the end of Sheng Wanyan's kang, so Gu Tingxiao moved Sheng Wanyan's dressing table next to the desk.
Fortunately, Sheng Wanyan and her room were big enough to accommodate a small kang.
Gu Tingxiao and Sheng Wanze worked very quickly and completed the construction during the lunch and evening hours.
Sheng Wanyan simply took out the cloth from home and covered the things in the room.
Anyway, you don’t have to worry about dust on the fabric, just disinfect and wash the clothes.
Sheng Wanyan took Yi Yi to Gu's mother's room to rest to avoid being choked by the dust.
The kang cannot be used right after it is built. You have to wait for it to be heated and the surface to dry before you can sleep on it.
That night Gu Tingxiao lit the kang and got up in the middle of the night to add some firewood.
The family of three slept in the opposite room that night, which was convenient for them.
The next night, the child had her own little kang, and there was a fence to prevent her from falling off.
