Chapter 236 It’s New Year’s Eve Again
Speaking of this, Xiongchuan got angry again. The thing is, a political study class was opened on the island, but many people were not interested.
In order to motivate everyone to study hard, Coach Xiao discussed with Captain Qiu to set up a scholarship, and the top three students in each exam would receive a bonus.
Xie Yi now studies for two hours every night. It was difficult to persist in the beginning, but after a while, he gradually developed it into a habit.
Now after washing up in the evening, my butt automatically sits down on the desk chair.
This study is indeed useful. My test scores have improved from "average" to "top of the class".
All of a sudden he really became a good student. Captain Qiu was surprised to see him and couldn't help but sigh: This kid's brain has finally opened up.
Xiongchuan felt uncomfortable. We were both talking badly, but your grades were going up like a rocket.
"Didn't I ask you to learn from me?"
Xie Yi shook his head and spoke in a firmer voice.
Xiong Chuan was dejected: "I learned it, but the knowledge just won't sink into my brain."
"Hiss~ Then why don't you go find Dr. Chi to give you extra lessons?"
"Then I'm going to lose a lot of money, right? No, no, thank you Dayi, you have to give me some lessons."
Xiong Chuan was afraid that he was too stupid and that his stubborn mind would make Chi Yao angry.
"Me? You really dare to say that."
Xie Yi pointed at his nose. He was also a half-baked person, wavering here and there.
Examinations are just like picking a general from a group of dwarfs. It's not much better than picking a general from a group of dwarfs.
"Let's read the book and do the exercises together." He should not mislead the students.
"Oh my god, so many papers, did Xiaotong send them?"
Xiong Chuan shuddered, his scalp went numb, his feet went weak, and he fled in panic.
"Hey, where are you going? Are you still going to study?"
"I'm going to the bathroom first."
…
In the twelfth lunar month, the festive atmosphere is strong and everything you wish for can come true.
That day, Lin Xiaotong came in with He Cuicui. When Jin Qiaofeng saw them, she was almost scared to death.
He stumbled over and held He Cuicui, asking anxiously:
"What's going on?"
It was not yet dinner time. Gao Xiulan heard the sound and peeked out from the backyard. She saw her daughter Xiaotong wiping her hands and coming out.
Guan Lamei strode down the stairs and followed to see what was going on.
He Cuicui waved her hands, but before she could finish her words she felt like vomiting and had to cover her mouth with her hands.
"Mom, I'm fine, I just vomit—"
"Aunt Qiaofeng, there's nothing serious wrong with Cuicui, except that she's pregnant."
Lin Xiaotong whispered in Jin Qiaofeng's ear.
It was as if a thunderclap had landed in Jin Qiaofeng's ears, causing them to explode, and she couldn't stop her voice.
"What? Yes, Cuicui, you are pregnant?"
He Cuicui nodded.
When she rode her bicycle to accompany Lin Xiaotong to the hospital after get off work today, she stood aside and stared curiously at Shen Suqin taking her pulse.
When she heard Lin Xiaotong talking about her previous pregnancy with delayed menstruation, her mind shuddered and she stood up with shaking hands and registered for a check-up.
It was just a guess, but I didn't expect it to be true. It's been almost two months.
Counting the dates, I got pregnant around New Year's Day.
On the way back, maybe it was a psychological effect, but when I passed by the state-owned restaurant, I was greeted by the aroma of braised fish.
He Cuicui's stomach reacted very strongly and she has been retching ever since.
After hearing this, Jin Qiaofeng was almost crazy with joy. She couldn't catch her breath and her body went limp, about to fall backwards.
"oops!"
Guan Lamei held on with her big hand and caught it, calling it a false alarm.
Gao Xiulan was both worried and amused, but she was also excited when she learned that Xiaotong was pregnant.
"Qiaofeng, you're going to be a grandmother soon, so hurry up and slow down."
"That's right, Jin Qiaofeng, you've been promoted to a higher level in an instant."
Diao Yulian didn't say anything sour at the end of the year, and looked envious. After all, her Jiabao was still young, and there was still a long way to go before Jiabao got married and had a son.
Jin Qiaofeng came to her senses, patted Cuicui's back gently, and supported her as she walked home, with a smile on her face.
"Cui Cui, what do you want to eat tonight?"
"Mom, I suddenly want to eat something sweet. I really want to eat glutinous rice dumplings."
"Okay, I'll soak glutinous rice tonight and make it for you tomorrow morning. I'll make some brown sugar and eggs tonight..."
"There will be more babies in our compound next year."
The third uncle who was standing at the door also heard it, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes gathered together.
Although he is old, he still looks forward to having new babies born in the compound.
But thinking of his heartless son, he probably won't be able to see his grandson in this lifetime.
He sighed in his heart, and Liewazi, who followed him out, felt uncomfortable seeing Third Grandpa like this.
He made a silent decision in his heart: he would also provide for his third grandfather in his old age.
…
February 17, New Year’s Eve, 1977.
Amidst the aroma of delicious food, the new year is truly approaching.
Lin Xiaotong stayed in the kitchen today, and the fragrance all over her body made her almost drool.
She has long since gotten over her morning sickness and now enjoys everything she eats. Her appetite is even better than before.
She likes sweet, sour, spicy and salty food.
Even Diao Yulian couldn't guess whether she was pregnant with a boy or a girl.
"Mom, these meatballs are delicious. These with shredded radish are even better and not greasy."
"It's delicious, right? I also put some chopped coriander on the meatballs. Try it."
Gao Xiulan began to feed the baby enthusiastically, smiling as she looked at Xiaotong who was very supportive.
"Mom, this is delicious too!" He nodded madly because it was so delicious.
Fortunately, all four members of the Xie family like to eat coriander, of course, except for Xiaoju and sesame.
I don’t know what’s wrong with these two cats. They feel like vomiting when they smell coriander.
The kiss also looked resistant to the smell of coriander, and stretched its neck to avoid the stench.
Xie Da Jiao was sitting and making a fire, holding a string of coriander meatballs in her hand.
"No wonder Xiaoju Zhima is not here today. He must have gone out to play."
"Sister Tong, this is terrible! It's like a sesame seed climbing up the roof and tearing off the tiles! Come over here and take a look!"
Lin Xiaotong had just finished eating a meatball when she heard Hutou calling her from the yard.
He stuck his head out of the window and immediately replied, "Coming! I'll be there soon."
"receive!"
Running out of the door with a fragrant smell, the three boys Hu Tou, Wu Jiabao and Song Chenlie were standing on the steps at the door.
A big radish head and two small radish heads all raised their heads to look at the roof.
Seeing her coming, Hu Tou waved:
"Sister Tong, look—"
New Year's Eve 1977
Wow, it’s true.
Lin Xiaotong raised her head and saw Zhima standing on the roof of the door with its tail raised high.
There was also a cat on the roof, with its big tail raised and its head tilted to stare at the sesame in the distance.
Wu Jiabao whispered, "Is Zhima trying to imitate the wolf's howl?"
Lin Xiaotong thought about this question seriously, touched her chin and replied:
"No way, isn't it good to be a cat?"
Tiger Head chewed some candy in his mouth and nudged Song Chenlie beside him with his elbow:
"Hey, tell me, do you want to be a cat or a wolf?"
Big Radish Head thought for a while and said, "Isn't it good to be a human being?"
Hu Tou and Wu Jiabao looked at each other and replied in unison: "Not good."
What's good about being a human being?
Hu Tou and Wu Jiabao both touched their buttocks, which were always spanked.
Wait, where are the sesame seeds?
Lin Xiaotong's neck felt sore from staring, so she turned around to take a look.
Xiaoju poked his head out of the pocket of Xie Yijun's coat and meowed a few times in a flattering manner.
Xie Yi raised his face with a bright smile:
"Xiaotong, I'm back for the New Year!"
A step forward is a big hug, with the military coat open and the person in his arms.
"Ah, the big bad wolf is coming~"
The three carrot heads laughed together.
