With only one child, Su Yan decided to be a strict mother. She still had to teach the child, even if it was hard. After all, the child was her own.
Even Meng's mother moved three times, so why can't she take some time to accompany her child in his studies and correct his shortcomings?
The next day at noon, Su Yan went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought some pencils, drawing books, and two boxes of crayons.
There were colored pencils in the space, but they were not sold outside. After thinking about it, she decided to make changes that evening and took out the paints and drawing boards collected in the space.
Yesterday, Lu Ting taught his son how to count. Today, Su Yan originally planned to teach him to recognize simple characters such as "population", "hand", "middle", and "lower". She also wanted to teach him to recite an ancient poem.
After dinner, Su Yan took out all the painting tools and asked Lu Yiming, "Son, do you want to learn painting?"
“Is painting fun?”
"You'll know if you try it. Mom bought you a box of crayons today. Do you want to try it?"
Nowadays, crayon boxes are the size of matchboxes. Su Yan took one box for herself and gave one to Lu Yiming. After giving each of them a picture book, she took him to sit on the small stool next to the coffee table.
"Son, what do you want to draw?"
"I want to draw an airplane. Can you draw it, Mom?"
"Okay, son, the plane is flying in the sky. What's in the sky?"
"There are white clouds, the sun, and a big plane."
"What about the ground?"
"There are grass and flowers on the ground, and there are calves eating the grass."
"Then let's draw all these things. The sun is golden, big and round."
"Mom, the sun is red."
"The sun is red in the morning and evening, and golden at other times. Okay, son, draw a circle like mommy."
Lu Yiming held a yellow crayon and drew an irregular circle clockwise. After coloring it, he looked at the sun he had drawn with some annoyance.
"Mom, why does your drawing look like the sun, but mine looks like a fried egg?"
"You just need to practice more. You're already very good at drawing now. Come, let mom hold your hand and draw. When you learn it well, you can draw by yourself tomorrow at noon."
Lu Ting was very pleased to see this heartwarming scene. His wife was a qualified mother, at least in his heart.
Yanyan's attitude towards her son is at least a hundred times better than his mother's treatment of him back then. He believes that as long as his son is serious, he will achieve something great one day.
The days passed one by one, and soon winter came. This day happened to be the new year, and January 1st was also Lu Yiming's fifth birthday.
On New Year's Day, Su Yan happened to have a day off, so she decided to invite her family over for dinner, as if it were a birthday celebration for her child.
She vomited uncontrollably while cooking, and a thought struck her: Oh no, could she have really won the lottery?
Teaching one child is already tiring enough, how will she handle another?
She had indeed considered having a second child in the past two years, but since she started tutoring her children, she was no longer so anxious to consider having a second child. If she only had one child in her life, she would be content with it.
Raising a child to be successful is incredibly difficult; teaching a child is even harder than working. She had clearly been on contraception for the past two months, so how could she get pregnant so quickly?
"yue—!"
"Yan Yan, what's wrong with you?"
"Lu Ting, I'm a little dizzy. You take care of the remaining two dishes. I'm going to bed for ten minutes."
"Yan Yan, you feel uncomfortable somewhere, shall I take you to the hospital?"
I don’t know why this baby reacted so strongly. A few months ago, his father prescribed some Chinese medicine to regulate their bodies.
"No, my period seems to have been delayed for ten days. I didn't pay much attention to it before, and I just remembered that I was pregnant after vomiting."
Lu Ting saw that Su Yan was pale, vomiting continuously, and walking with one foot light and one foot heavy. It seemed that her pregnancy reaction was more serious this time.
He bent down, picked up Su Yan and carried her back to her room. "Yan Yan, since our parents haven't come yet, you should lie down for a while and relax. I'll go get you a glass of brown sugar water."
"Okay, go ahead!"
Su Yan felt dizzy and fell asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow. Lu Ting walked out with a worried look on his face, and soon came back with a cup of brown sugar water.
"Yan Yan, come and drink some lipstick sugar water."
Su Yan slowly opened her eyes. What happened to her just now? Was it hypoglycemia?
"I'm fine. Go cook. Our son is still outside."
"I don't know how to boil the pot, so I poured a few buckets of water into the big pot. My son is sitting at the coffee table drawing."
Su Yan drank the brown sugar water and felt much better. Seeing that she was fine, Lu Ting gave her a few words of advice and hurried out to cook the unfinished dishes.
Lu Ting had just returned to the balcony and added two pieces of firewood to the stove when Lu Fengnian came over with his wife and Lu Jin's family.
Hua Min saw that Su Yan was not there and asked Lu Ting, "Where is Yan Yan?"
"Mom, Yanyan is not feeling well and is resting in her room. Call her after dinner."
"What happened to her?"
Before Lu Ting could answer, Lu Yiming, who had been doodling on the coffee table, said nonchalantly, "My mom vomited. She said she might be pregnant. I don't know what she has."
Hua Min was so happy when she heard that Su Yan was pregnant again. She had specially asked her son before whether their health was not good, otherwise why Su Yan had not been pregnant in the past few years.
Lu Ting explained to her that they had been very careful with contraception over the years, and she said how could two healthy people suddenly become infertile.
Now that their daughter-in-law is pregnant again, they have come to terms with it and are planning to have another child?
"Yiming, your mother said she is pregnant. She has a baby in her belly. You will be a big brother next year."
"Grandma, is what you said true? My mother is pregnant. How did the baby come from that?"
Lu Yilan on the side pouted and said, "Brother, you are so stupid. Of course your father put the baby in your mother's belly."
Lu Yiming asked again: "Then how did my father put it in?"
"Just like burying potatoes in the soil, your father put the baby in your mother's belly."
"Is my dad a baby sower? Then will he just stuff his baby seeds into other aunts' bellies? If so, won't I have many brothers and sisters?"
Everyone in the room was stunned and didn't know how to explain the issue of having children.
Su Yan, who was about to get up, heard her son's irritating conversation and wanted to stuff his mouth with an egg.
Even Lu Ting, who was carrying the dishes into the house, was so angry that his teeth were itching. Today was his birthday, so he let him go for the time being and would give him a good beating after his birthday.
"Lu Yiming, go wash your hands and have dinner."
"Dad, will you put babies in other aunts' bellies? If you do, I won't want you anymore."
"Lu Yiming, don't eat anymore. Go stand in the corner."
