The little deer looked at his six brothers who were sobbing and took a big bite without hesitation.
"Thank you, little deer sister~" Yatiao also took two bites. Well, the steamed buns were really delicious. He was so sad...
Dani and Erni were also sad. They loved Chinese New Year because everyone was there, it was so lively, and the atmosphere was so good. If they went to school, they would only be home with their brother and mother...
Sanni took two bites of her brown sugar bun and frowned as she watched. At first, she stood there speechless. But then, seeing her aunt and her group of brothers and sisters leaving, she felt a strange feeling in her heart. She didn't know if it was because her aunt and her friends had taken so many delicious things, or because they were leaving...
Zhao Fangrui saw that her grandchildren loved the brown sugar buns, so she wrapped a few more in oil paper and placed them at the very back of the bag to prevent heat loss. She also packed plenty of peach cakes, candies, and other goodies. As she packed, she gave her second daughter some words.
Cheng Fugui didn't have much else to say, but there was one thing he wanted his daughter to remember. "Don't forget the agreement you signed. Otherwise, you won't be allowed to enter this house."
Hmm? Cheng Zhenyu listened carefully, perking up. What had happened that she didn't know about? And why was she writing such a serious document? This eldest sister of hers was truly remarkable!
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Cheng Zhenyu nudged her brother next to her and asked what happened.
"I don't know either." Cheng Zhenbao was also curious. Why did his second sister even sign a document? He actually didn't know anything about this...
"Dad, Mom, don't worry, it won't happen again." Cheng Zhenzhu was still very confident about this. Now that all seven of them were here, how could she have the time to look for other ones?
Cheng Fugui snorted. They were talking nicely now, but who knew if they'd get carried away and do something crazy next time? He and his wife had been forced into a corner, so they came up with the idea of signing a written agreement. Anyway, they'd let him go, and if their daughter still wanted them as her parents, she shouldn't go looking for her again.
Last year alone, we had three babies! Zhenbao and Xiaomei only had two!
"Alright, alright, let's go..." Zhao Fangrui sighed, hugged her little grandchildren, and went to see her second daughter and the others off to the train. Cheng Zhenyu came along, mumbling about something the whole way. When she asked her mother, she wouldn't say anything, and her father just kept grumbling. As for her sister-in-law, it was obvious she didn't know...
"Woo woo woo", "Woo woo woo".
With a few long whistles, the train arrived at the station and passengers began to get on and off...
"Pearl, you must take good care of yourself... Pearl, it's inconvenient for you to take care of so many children. Why don't you let Zhenbao take them there?" Zhao Fangrui saw that someone was starting to urge her, so she hurried to say a few more words.
"Mom, you guys take good care of yourselves, don't worry about me. No need for Zhenbao to send you off, mom, don't worry, the kids are good, I can do it by myself. Weren't you fine when you came here? Mom, Dad, big sister, Zhenbao, Xiaohuzi, you all should go back when you're well, don't blow in the cold wind here. Come and play if you have time during the summer vacation..." Cheng Zhenzhu got in the car and waved goodbye to the whole family. Seeing them waving back, she suddenly remembered that it seemed like the same situation two years ago.
The days passed by so quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already 1974. She had been here for five years and had become quite comfortable with her role as Cheng Zhenzhu...
"Wow wow wow ~" Little Tiger looked at the train that started to move, Erkang's hands were still stubborn. He really wanted to be his second aunt's son.
Zhao Fangrui watched the train clang away, picked up her eldest grandson, who was crying while chewing a steamed bun, and comforted him, "It's okay. Didn't your second aunt invite you to visit during the summer vacation? It's almost time..."
"It'll take a long, long time," Little Tiger said uncomfortably. It's only January now, and he won't be able to go out until June. He still has to study for several months!
******After leaving the platform, the train to the next station gradually picked up speed. Several green carriages swayed and the scenery outside the carriage passed by quickly.
"Mom, come and sit down." Several children wrapped in round strips put their things away, climbed to their seats, and called their mother.
"Okay." Cheng Zhenzhu put Jiu Tiao on the seat.
The little guy had been covering his nose again since getting in the car. Cheng Zhenzhu stuffed some orange peels into Jiu Tiao's mouth for him to play with, then put the things back in place.
If her mother hadn't been worried about her not being able to get her things, she would have stuffed more into her. Her bags were all bulging, and with her thick cotton-padded jacket, she looked like a few clumsy little penguins flapping their wings.
Cheng Zhenzhu packed her things and took a long gulp of warm water. Overall, this trip to Haishi had finally fulfilled a major concern. Next time, she wouldn't have to feel so guilty...
"Ahh~" Seeing that his mother was done with her work, Jiujo stuffed the orange peel into his pocket and climbed onto his mother to play.
Cheng Zhenzhu held Jiu Tiao and fed him some warm water. The little guy had been following them everywhere during the summer and winter holidays, and he seemed to be getting smarter every day. His eyes were rolling around, and he looked like a smart kid...
"Mom, can we just take three naps and get there?" Ba Tiao asked, shaking his little feet in cotton socks on the middle bunk.
He had come here twice, and he felt like he remembered it. He had slept for three times and then woke up to be there.
"Yes, we eight are really smart... Do you still want some steamed buns? Grandma gave you a lot, some that haven't gotten cold yet." Cheng Zhenzhu asked the others. In fact, she had just put the steamed buns into the space on the way, and they were still warm now.
"Eat!" Liu Tiao nodded without hesitation. He could still eat one!
