Chapter 169 The 1990s: The Rural Writer’s Cannon Fodder Son (9)



After washing her son's body and changing his clothes, Xin Guoguo packed up the bedding and went out to wash it before taking her son to the next room.

It was the first time for the little Dumpling to see such a lively scene, but he was not shy at all. Instead, he opened his big eyes and looked around curiously.

When Mother Meng saw her eldest grandson, she was overjoyed and waved to him:

"Tangtang, come to grandma, I'll make a piglet for you."

The little dumpling immediately struggled in his mother's arms.

Xin Guoguo patted her son: "Behave yourself!"

The little guy pouted in grievance.

Xin Guoguo then put her son on the kang and took off his shoes: "Go."

The little boy immediately ran to his grandmother happily, grabbing her legs with his little hands.

Watching the soft dough being shaped into various shapes in grandma's hands, the little guy would exclaim in delight from time to time, and his baby voice made everyone smile knowingly.

Several aunts also talked to him.

The little guy was not afraid of strangers. He was held in the arms of several aunts in turn and was affectionate with them. He smiled happily.

The steam in the room almost solidified, blurring people's vision, but it couldn't cover up the laughter.

Basket after basket of steamed buns were steamed and poured into a large basket to cool.

Lunch was a big stew with steamed buns.

By mid-afternoon, the two bags of flour prepared by Meng Ersao's family had been made into New Year's steamed buns and were lying on the kang.

The people who came to help gradually dispersed.

Only the eldest brother of the Meng family and his wife, the second sister-in-law of Meng, were left waiting to steam the remaining buns.

When Meng Mu left, she took Tangtang away with her.

Xin Guoguo helped to clean up and then went back to the house to pack some things.

Tomorrow Meng Mu will also be steaming New Year's buns.

However, she did not stay to help.

She planned to take Tangtang back to the county town early tomorrow morning.

It's the 27th day of the lunar year, and Meng Jun is coming back with his wife and children. It's not appropriate for her to stay here.

Although Meng Mu was reluctant to let her go, she knew she couldn't keep her, so she packed a large bag of New Year's goods for Xin Guoguo:

"I know you don't need these, but this is my gift. Tangtang is my grandson after all, and as a grandmother, I don't have much ability, so I can only give him these worthless things."

As soon as these words came out, Xin Guoguo's hand that was about to refuse loosened its strength and took the bag.

"thank you."

The next morning, Meng Ersao went to Meng's mother's house to help.

Xin Guoguo and her son slept until they woke up naturally. They packed up their things and were about to leave when they saw Mrs. Meng come in with two teacups.

"Looks like I'm back just in time! Don't leave yet, eat your meal!"

Xin Guoguo had no choice but to put her things down, eat, and then leave with her son.

Mrs. Meng reluctantly sent him out: "Remember to come back often!"

Xin Guoguo smiled but didn't respond.

When the two brothers from Meng Ersao's family came back from playing, they didn't see their younger brother, so they hurried to find their mother:

"Mom, where's my brother?"

As soon as Meng Jun walked in with his wife and daughter, he heard what the two brothers said.

He didn't react for a moment, and subconsciously asked in confusion: "What brother? Is my second sister-in-law pregnant?"

Mrs. Meng Er: ...

"No one."

Then he turned to his two sons and said, "Your brother has gone home. I will take you to find him after the New Year. Don't bother me now. Go home and play!"

"oh."

Although the younger brother was not found, the two little guys did not make a fuss after receiving their mother's promise, and ran away obediently.

Meng Jun also vaguely reacted at this time. He didn't mention it again. He just picked up his things, went into the main house, said something to his parents, and then took his wife and daughter to the west room.

After putting the things down and asking his wife to clean up first, he washed his hands and went to the main house to help.

Xin Guoguo took her son back and opened the bag prepared by Meng's mother. Her eyes widened immediately.

Good job!

There were five or six kilograms of New Year's steamed buns alone, six bottles of tomato sauce pickled by Meng Mu, some fried food, a pile of dried vegetables, and Meng Mu's homemade soy sauce...

She said, why is this thing so heavy!

Xin Guoguo tidied things up a bit and put most of the things into the space.

I only left a small amount to eat during the New Year holidays.

The kindergarten just started in February, but the mother and son were not in a hurry to go back.

However, Xin Guoguo planned to go back to her parents' home after the sixth day of the New Year and then take her son out for a trip.

Therefore, the mother and son will not spend much time here.

But it was Chinese New Year after all, so she took her son and bought some food for the house before the supermarket closed.

After the New Year, little Tuanzi turned four years old.

The little guy put on new clothes early in the morning, holding the New Year's money given by his mother last night in his little hand, and pulled his mother:

"Mom, mom, let's go out and play, okay?"

Although their house in the county town was newly built, it was also facing the street.

There is an outdoor balcony on the third floor, from where you can clearly see the bustling main street of the entire county town.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, many vendors set up their stalls in the cold wind.

The streets are crowded with people shopping, it is very lively.

Xin Guoguo was also very tempted when she saw the food stalls.

As soon as her son said that, she nodded immediately and went downstairs carrying her big fat son.

I've been back for so long, but I still haven't met you.

Xin Guoguo was secretly rejoicing in her heart, thinking that she had good luck.

Unexpectedly, she still met Meng Jun on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

At this moment, Meng Jun was walking on the road with his wife and daughter.
