Chapter 105 1965 is coming

The New Year of 1965 was on February 2nd.

This year's New Year's Eve was more lively than previous years, with the addition of Gu Sanjie's family of five, and more dishes needed to be prepared with more people.

Pig's trotters stewed with soybeans, lamb ribs stewed with radish, chicken stewed with mushrooms, braised pork with dried beans, baked pumpkin, mu shu pork, peanuts, and canned food.

The lamb chops and pork belly were bought by Team Leader Wang, and the two families prepared the New Year’s Eve dinner together.

In addition to these dishes, we also make dumplings filled with cabbage and pork. For the once-a-year New Year’s Eve dinner, we have to eat something good.

They have their New Year’s Eve dinner at noon, and by the time they have it at night it’s already dark and pitch black.

At the dinner table, the adults drank alcohol, while the women and children drank soda.

Changyi and Changan are already two years old. Seeing their older brothers and sisters drinking soda, they reached out to drink too. The two children, Hongxing Xueer, asked Su He, "Aunt, can they drink it?"

Su He nodded, "Okay, drink less."

Seeing Su He nodded, Hongxing Xueer took a cup and poured some soda for Changyi and Changan. It was the first time for the two babies to drink soda, and they thought it was delicious. They drank up all the soda poured by their brother and sister.

He raised the cup and wanted to drink, but was stopped by Su He.

"Don't drink any more. If you drink more, you'll get worms in your stomach."

The two babies were very afraid of bugs, so Su He used this to scare them, and it really worked. They immediately shook their heads and said they didn't want to drink anymore.

Su He gave each of them a lamb chop and said, "Eat meat. Eat more meat so you can grow taller."

"I understand, Mom."

The two babies were very well behaved and started to eat the lamb chops.

Su He was satisfied. It seemed that her two children were very well behaved and never made any noise. It was just that the elder sister was sometimes very stubborn.

You must get what you want, otherwise you will cry.

During the summer, she had nothing to do so she took the two children to visit her second sister Gu's house. Gu's second sister's son, Little Red Army, had a wooden horse that he could ride on. Her sister liked it very much and wanted it, but Little Red Army also liked the wooden horse.

Su He told her sister to go home and ask grandpa to make one for her to coax her sister. She thought the little girl would forget it in a few hours, but she didn't expect that she would remember it all the time.

When I got home, I asked for a Trojan horse...

The farm was busy at that time and Gu's father was unable to spare time. However, little girl Changyi just wanted a wooden horse and would cry if she was not given one. Gu's father had no choice but to take a day off and make two wooden horses for her, one for each of the two children, to prevent the younger brother from causing trouble behind them.

The Trojan horse is not as good as the Little Red Army’s, it’s a bit rough, but the two kids like it very much, especially the little girl Changyi, who is extremely happy.

Su He understood that her daughter was obsessed with the things she liked.

The younger brother seems to be indifferent. If he has it, he plays, and if he doesn’t, he doesn’t play. What does the book say about this kind of situation? Buddhist. Her son is a bit Buddhist.

Mr. Gu didn't drink much, but Team Leaders Gu Jianhua and Wang were a little drunk. After the meal, the three of them went outside to set off firecrackers and celebrate the New Year.

There were some vegetables, mu shu pork and pig's trotters left, but we finished the rest.

"Heat up these two dishes and eat them with dumplings in the evening," said Gu's mother.

We eat dumplings on New Year’s Eve and of course on New Year’s Day as well.

The day before yesterday, Gu's mother, Gu's third sister Su He and their three companions made a lot of dumplings and put them outside to freeze, so they don't have to make them now.

Su He nodded, helped to clear the table and wash the dishes, then asked Gu Jianhua to go back to the back room to give the two babies a bath. As a New Year's ritual, they had to take a bath before the New Year.

Gu's father asked a carpenter to make a large bathtub so that the two babies could take a bath at the same time. Su He and Gu Jianhua each took one baby and wiped the baby's body from head to toe with soap.

"Mom, I want Momo."

"I want one too."

The two babies wanted to play with bubbles, so Su He prepared some for them. It was winter, and even if they were taking a bath next to the stove, she was afraid that the children would catch a cold, so she took them out of the tub after a while.

"It's not washed well yet." said my sister.

The younger brother continued, "Yes, we haven't finished washing yet."

Gu Jianhua laughed and said, "You two didn't have a good time."

My sister nodded and blinked her big eyes, "Dad, I want to play in the water again."

"I want to play too." The younger brother said pitifully.

Su He patted the two babies' butts gently and said, "Stop playing around. Hurry up and wipe your body. You'll get cold soon."

It's very strange that children love playing with water and will continue playing even if their clothes get wet.

“Hmph.”

The two treasures got angry and turned their heads away and ignored her.

Su He didn't care about them. He wiped their bodies and put them in bed. Gu Jianhua coaxed them patiently, "Changyi and Changan, be good. You are playing in the water now. What should you do if you have a stomachache?"

In this family, Su He played the role of a strict mother, and Gu Jianhua was a loving father who never hit his children, but Su He spanked them several times.

Children can be really annoying sometimes.

But no matter how much she beats, she is still their mother, and the two babies still cuddle with her. At night, they must sleep in her arms, with her sleeping in the middle and the two babies on either side.

She could only return to her bed after they both fell asleep.

She hoped that the two children would be closer to their father and go to sleep with him instead of their mother at night.

"Come on, apply perfume."

Su He scooped a large spoonful of vanishing cream. Other people put it on their faces, but they put it on their bodies. But it was limited to the two babies. They put it on their bodies and faces after taking a bath.

"Jianhua, I'm going to take a shower and look after your two kids." Su He said.

Gu Jianhua nodded, "You go, I'll watch."

Su He thought about it and still felt a little worried. Gu Jianhua was drunk. What if he fell asleep? So he went to the front room and asked Gu's mother to help take a look.

"Xiao He, take this."

In the back room, Gu's mother secretly gave Su He ten yuan. Su He was puzzled, and Gu's mother kept nagging, "It's the New Year's money for the two babies. It's not convenient to give it tomorrow."

Her three daughters and three sons-in-law were there, wishing New Year's greetings together. How could she give only ten yuan to the two of them? So she gave it quietly.

Su He accepted it and said, "Thank you, Mom."

Mother Gu waved her hand, as her eldest granddaughter and grandson were more important in her heart.

Gu Jianhua felt that his wife didn't trust him, so how could he fall asleep after drinking? He is very sober now and very energetic.

He wanted to show her how energetic he was.

So Su He was in trouble that night. A drunk man can last really...long.

the next day.

New Year's Day.

I put new clothes on the two babies, put a red headband on my sister, and went to pay New Year’s greetings to grandpa and grandma.

Gu's mother and father said auspicious words and gave the New Year's money, and then it was my third aunt and uncle's turn.

After breakfast, around nine o'clock, the people from the second room came and we had a good chat.

Gu Jinzhu still hasn't come back this year. Gu's second aunt Zhang Xiuying doesn't want to mention it anymore, but Gu's mother has to mention it.

"Xiuying, please ask Tiezhu and Yinzhu to go and talk to Jinzhu. We are family, so there is no reason for us to turn against each other. Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected." Mother Gu said sincerely.

Zhang Xiuying, "If you don't want to come back, then don't come back. Just pretend that you never gave birth to this son."

Hearing this, Gu's mother said, "You can't say that."

"A child born after ten months of pregnancy." She sighed after saying this.

Seems helpless.

In Suhe, Li Jinhua, Wu Sanfeng and Gu Sanjie were chatting. Wu Sanfeng asked Gu Sanjie, "Yunlan, will you still live here after this year?"

"It's better to leave the baby here and go back to the city."

Sister Gu said, "Stay at home. It will be troublesome to breastfeed if we go to the city. Let's stay at home first and wait until she is weaned."

If she wants to live in the city, she will have to feed her with formula instead of breast milk. I have the money to buy formula, but I don't have that many coupons.

When Xiao He was feeding milk powder, it was her eldest brother who mailed the milk powder coupons and milk powder from the army, and her second brother also gave her some.

She breastfed until this summer, and it’s almost time to wean the baby at seven or eight months.
