When Jiang Yan woke up the next morning, it was already bright.
It is true that a short absence makes a new marriage better.
She rubbed her waist which was about to break, and marveled again at the man's great physical strength. Even though he was no longer in the army, he had never missed a day of exercise, and her favorite abdominal muscles were still intact!
A few years passed, and Si Lu also settled down. The young man in his early twenties who was full of vigor and vitality has become more stable and steady now. His every move has a bit of the flavor of a superior, and he has become more capable, but he is still less than thirty years old.
Such a charming man must be her man!
╮(╯▽╰)╭
After savoring the thought for a moment, Jiang Yan quickly got up.
She was on holiday and didn't have to go to work, but Si Lu didn't have a holiday and got up early to go to work. It was quiet downstairs, without a sound.
Although the two children are already that old, Jiang Yan is still a little embarrassed at this time. Maybe it's because she is afraid that she is shy. There is no one at home, but there are porridge and buns warming in the pot in the kitchen, and there are pickles and eggs on the table.
You can tell at a glance that it was left for her.
She sat down to eat breakfast happily, scrambling eggs and eating one in two bites.
They are delicious. Although they are small in size, they are eggs laid by free-range chickens, and they taste great.
After finishing breakfast, Jiang Yan washed the dishes and saw two pairs of dirty shoes in the bathroom, so she washed them as well.
As a mother, she was not very qualified. She only stayed at home for half a year out of the year and never did any housework. She had only washed a few clothes for the two children when they grew up...
As soon as they finished cleaning up, Ning Yu and Si Xinnian came back with the children.
It was cold outside, so they came back on time. They were indeed afraid that Jiang Yan would be embarrassed, so they brought the children to visit.
"Your grandma Liu's granddaughter-in-law also gave birth to a child last year. She is now old enough to walk. We can take the children to visit her and take a walk."
"The weather is bad and it's cold outside. If it's spring or autumn when it's neither too hot nor too cold, we'll take the children to the small garden."
The two of them sang in unison, fearing that Jiang Yan would feel embarrassed. They had all been through this and knew what was going on.
This attempt to cover up the truth made Jiang Yan very unhappy. She quickly picked up the two children and went upstairs. "Mom will tell you a story, okay?"
I'm sorry!
Ning Yu and Si Xinnian both suppressed their laughter and pretended not to see it.
It’s a good opportunity for them to take a break.
When they got upstairs, Jiang Yan took off the two children's coats, took off their shoes, and used wet towels to wipe their hands and faces.
The two children were so well behaved and didn't make any noise at all.
Jiang Yan took Chao Chao and Mu Mu upstairs to read picture books and tell stories. From time to time, she also took out some snacks from the space for the children. The whole morning passed like this.
Ning Yu and Si Xinnian rested for half a day and then got up to cook. No one else was at home eating, so there were only three adults and two children, so the meal was easy to cook.
Just as the meal was ready, the door of the Si family was pushed open. Someone rushed to the yard and knocked on the door, "Doctor Ning, Doctor Ning, the daughter-in-law of the Sun family fell down. This is terrible."
Xiaobai stood behind the man, staring at him vigilantly, but did not call out.
Perhaps it also sensed that this person had no ill intentions, so it just stared at him.
Ning Yu and Si Xinnian heard the noise and hurried out.
"What is it?"
"The pregnant daughter-in-law of the Sun family fell down."
Ning Yu was shocked. Sun family's daughter-in-law was seven months pregnant. It was a critical time. If she fell at this time, it would not be a good thing.
"Go to the hospital immediately."
"There is no car, and there is a lot of blood..."
Ning Yu was extremely anxious, "What nonsense! Hurry up. What are you waiting for at this time? Call a taxi." She put on a cotton jacket and left, quickly contacted a taxi, and asked everyone to prepare things and send them to the hospital.
There is a hospital in the compound, but they can only treat minor illnesses and pains, they can't perform dangerous operations like this.
Ning Yu had some friendship with the Sun family, and her mother's family was also indirectly related to the Sun family. So when the Sun family's daughter-in-law got into trouble and was at a loss, the Sun family immediately thought of Ning Yu.
When Jiang Yan heard something was wrong and went downstairs, Ning Yu had already gone out.
She was a little worried, afraid that the person could not be rescued, and also afraid that Ning Yu would get into trouble because of the rescue.
Jiang Yan never hid her emotions in front of her family. Seeing her like this, Si Xinnian asked, "Are you worried?"
Jiang Yan smiled and said, "Well, it's so cold outside, my mom..."
"It's okay. We live in the same compound and everyone will help each other if anything happens. We are neighbors and no one has bad intentions." Si Xinnian didn't know what Jiang Yan had been through or why she had the idea of over-speculating on people's minds, but she knew that Jiang Yan was such a person who liked to think carefully.
She has done big things and experienced many ups and downs. If she hadn't been so cautious, she might not be what she is now.
"Well, I was overthinking it."
"It's different." Si Xinnian comforted her, "We've been neighbors for 20 or 30 years!"
Yes, people in this era are very kind-hearted, especially neighbors, who are more reliable than relatives. Everyone lives together and helps each other. If someone has difficulties, they will lend a hand.
The people living in the compound are not simple, and they won't bite each other or anything like that...
Jiang Yan felt relieved.
"Let's eat first. I think your mother will be back soon. I'll save the food for you."
Even if adults don’t eat it, children still need to eat it!
"Okay, time to eat."
Jiang Yan brought out the prepared food, put it in special small bowls, and let the two children eat with spoons.
They all wore a smock, which they used when they were full, so they were not afraid of getting greasy.
A child who is almost three years old doesn’t need to be fed by adults. He has already learned to eat by himself.
The two babies ate in a pretty elegant manner. Although they also ate on the table and their bodies, and their hands and mouths were all greasy, no one cared until they had finished eating everything in the bowls, and then they would clean up together.
When children eat, the food gets dirty.
By the time Jiang Yan had washed the children's faces, taken off their overalls and tidied up, Ning Yu had also returned.
"Mom, what's going on?"
Ning Yu felt a little tired, mainly because she hadn't eaten lunch and was extremely nervous. When she came back, she felt a little exhausted.
Jiang Yan quickly made her a bowl of sugar water.
"Mother and child are safe."
Jiang Yan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."
Ning Yu felt bad, "But after all, my body is injured. I'm afraid I won't be able to have children in the future."
It’s a bit regrettable. Who doesn’t want to have both a son and a daughter?
That’s it?
Jiang Yan smiled secretly. It was already the end of 1978. It would be 1979. Family planning would soon be on the agenda. By then, you could see the title "Only One Child" everywhere on the street...
