Qin Rou was in confinement after childbirth.
She often had fish, shrimps and pork to eat. Her family even killed a chicken and made chicken soup for her. Her mother-in-law wanted to make some pig's trotters to make soup for her, but Qin Rou said no.
She wanted to eat something light.
The weather was hot at the moment, and it was quite painful to be in confinement after childbirth. Qin Rou didn't have a big appetite, so she wanted to eat fresh and juicy things. She only wanted to eat boiled shrimps or dried scallops for meat. She liked the freshness and sweetness.
Compared with meat, she preferred to eat green leaves and small tomatoes grown by herself. The sour and sweet taste was particularly appetizing.
Her mother-in-law and Lu Yan didn't force her. She could eat whatever she wanted. She always had goat milk and eggs every day. She was always given all the good things.
The only advantage of being on this island in the summer is that there are a lot of fruits, especially the bananas from Qiongzhou Island, which are her favorite. Bananas are super sweet. In addition to bananas, there are also lychees and papayas, especially bananas and papayas, which are produced in large quantities and are cheap. Farmers feed them to pigs, and she eats them too.
Qin Rou: "..." I am supplementing dietary fiber.
In addition to drinking goat milk, I can also drink coconut water happily often. The coconuts are produced
at the doorstep of my home. I heard that Lu Yan climbed up to pick them himself. Qin Rou just regretted that she didn't see her husband climbing the tree to pick coconuts with her own eyes. The coconuts planted at the doorstep of my home are our own coconuts. In the past, someone came to pick them, or used tools. Now, in order to express his love as a father, Lu Yan simply climbed the coconut tree with a rope by himself.
The ugly kids grew up day by day, and their appearance changed almost every day. Although their skin was still wrinkled and red, they changed from ugly kids to not so ugly kids.
The two ugly kids looked exactly the same, and it was hard to tell them apart at first glance, but Dabao had a red ribbon tied around his wrist to prevent parents from confusing them.
If they were confused by mistake, the older brother and younger brother would not be able to tell them apart.
Qin Rou and Lu Yan named the children. The eldest son was named Lu Weizhou, nicknamed Zhouzhou, and the younger son was named Lu Weize, nicknamed Dumpling. They originally wanted to make a pair of Zhouzhou and Dumpling, but they felt that the word Zhouzhou was too complicated and heartbreaking, so they just called them Zhouzhou.
Zhou is the land and island in the water, Ze is the vast ocean. Zhouzhou can take a boat to the sea to find his brother Zeze, and Zeze can take a dumpling-like boat to land to find Zhouzhou...
"It's like a tongue twister." This is probably the occupational disease of announcers.
"Zhouzhou and Dumpling." Qin Rou couldn't help pinching her son's chubby face, pinching the left and the right, never favoring one over the other.
After pinching, as an old mother, she felt very guilty, thinking that the little guy's face was already wrinkled, and you pinched him again, be careful not to ruin his appearance.
Poke it, the little guy's face is really tender.
This pair of brothers, all day long, eat when they are full and sleep when they are full, sleep when they are full, just like two piglets.
Raising pigs day by day.
"Mom's son is so cute."
During the days of confinement, I was so bored that I went crazy. I couldn't do anything but admire the ugly baby.
The ugly baby is not so ugly anymore. He looks very well-behaved when sleeping. He has a pair of small hands and feet, and the fingers are especially small. It's so charming. When the two little guys close their eyes, their eyelids are very thin. Qin Rou was very surprised to find that her baby's eyelashes are very long, super beautiful, and his little nose is also high and straight.
Qin Rou tried hard to hold back her clumsy claws, not to poke the baby's nose bridge, so as not to poke the baby's nose flat.
——They seem to have a mother with ADHD.
Qin Rou gazed at them tenderly. These two little babies seemed to be copied and pasted by an artificial mouse. They look too similar.
When they sleep, their little mouths are gently pursed, and there is a rising and falling smell of milk when they breathe.
Qin Rou lowered her head and kissed their little faces one by one. They
are so cute.
"You are teasing them again." Lu Yan came into the room. He had just washed the diapers for the children. As soon as he came in, he saw his wife fiddling with the children. "Be careful not to be woken up by you."
"Jiangzi cries for you to see."
The little kids are super well-behaved when they sleep quietly, but when they cry, it is a duet of magic sounds. When one cries, the other will never lag behind and will cry quickly. The two brothers are in sync.
Especially the younger brother, Xiaojiaozi Lu Weize, howled loudly.
Qin Rou was honest and didn't move.
Lu Yan smiled softly, walked over, sat down beside his wife and children, pointed at his handsome face, Qin Rou leaned over and kissed him on the handsome face.
Just when she was about to pull away, Lu Yan held her shoulders and took the initiative to kiss her.
When the two separated, Qin Rou didn't know whether he disliked herself or him, "You kissed me after all."
Qin Rou had stopped looking in the mirror. She was now wearing a headscarf and all her hair was tied up, like a country girl. No one knew what smell she had. She was used to it and couldn't smell it, but that didn't mean others couldn't smell it.
It is said that a son will never dislike his mother's ugliness. Only the children accompanied her to the prison.
Seeing this, Lu Yan smiled and said, "What's wrong with me kissing my wife?"
Lu Yan came to kiss her again, and Qin Rou pushed him away with a smile, "You also smell like milk, you little comrade Lu who is still wet behind the ears."
"It's all from you and your son."
...
"Oh no, the kids are awake."
The couple found that the two little kids had opened their eyes and looked at their parents curiously. Perhaps they had heard their parents' voices too much in the womb, so they were very friendly to Qin Rou and Lu Yan.
Two pairs of big eyes like black grapes stared at people, and they smiled foolishly while looking at them.
The two little kids seemed to be installed on the same channel, the elder brother grinned foolishly, and the younger brother also grinned foolishly.
"Lu Yan, look, they are smiling, they are smiling, kids."
"Contestant Dumpling smiles sweeter."
"That's it, look, can they understand what I said? Contestant Zhou Zhou came last, and his little mouth is smiling so brightly."
...
"Knock, knock, knock."
There was a knock on the door, and two little heads poked their heads in. They were the little fat boy and the Chen Jingyi brother.
Xiao Ming, who likes to chatter, has turned down the volume a lot recently. The fat boy is also afraid that his loud voice will accidentally open Pandora's box. The brothers' crying is earth-shaking.
"Aunt?!"
"Aunt."
The two guys are here to see their little cousin.
The cousins are in pairs.
"Come in."
The two guys entered the room, and Lu Yan held them in his arms. Xiao Jingyi and Xiao Ming looked at the little cubs in amazement.
It really looks like that!
"Ah... Ah Yi..."
The two brothers, who were originally laughing with their eyes wide open, saw their two cousins. They were not afraid of strangers at all, but were very excited and excited.
The more people there are, the more excited they seem to be. They like being watched.
Like two agitated little centipedes, their arms and legs were shaking.
Mother-in-law Jiang Ping was standing outside the door. Jiang Ping brought a bowl of papaya cut into pieces and brought it in for Lu Yan and the children to eat. Qin Rou had a bowl of hot papaya porridge.
Every time this happened, it was a very heartbreaking moment. While others were feasting, the little ones couldn't hold back and kept scratching their mothers for milk.
Jiang Ping took the two little guys out to play, turned on the radio for the couple and turned down the volume. Qin Rou fed the child, and Lu Yan sat beside her and fed her porridge.
The child fell asleep after eating, and Qin Rou leaned on her husband's shoulder and talked to him.
Qin Rou spent two months in confinement. When the baby was one month old, they just had a simple family gathering to celebrate. There were many people in the family compound, and many of Lu Yan's comrades-in-arms. Most of them could not leave their posts for no reason, so it was too troublesome to organize a one-month banquet, so they just had a simple celebration.
In early September, Qin Rou was still in confinement at home. A big typhoon landed during these two days, and the school had already been closed early. Every household had stockpiled water and food at home.
My sister and brother-in-law came to their house to spend the typhoon. When the typhoon passed, there was no electricity, and it was pitch black at night. The house was lit with coconut oil lamps, and it was raining heavily outside. The whistling wind was terrifying.
Typhoon days are very dangerous. Everyone hides at home. The wind is howling outside. Many things are blown up into the sky. From time to time, some strange collision sounds can be heard.
Qin Rou asked her sister, brother-in-law, and parents-in-law to seal the terrace on the second floor. The plants on the second floor were also moved into the room. The doors and windows were closed, but a lot of rain still seeped in.
The water was roaring. Everyone sat together to avoid the typhoon, but they didn't feel scared. It was windy and rainy outside, and everyone inside was eating steamed buns around the lights. My mother-in-law baked a lot of cakes in advance, and my father-in-law also made sesame salt and two cans of sweet and sour cucumber strips.
Only Lu Yan was not at home. Qin Rou finished feeding the two cubs. Their skin had become white and tender, as if you could squeeze out water. They smelled of milk and were very pleasing.
Just like an ugly duckling turning into a swan.
The two cubs slept after eating and ate after sleeping. They fell asleep while eating. Qin Rou let the two cubs lie side by side beside her to sleep. She picked up a photo album and looked through the photos of the cubs' father. It wasn't just the photos of the baby's father. Qin Rou was still a person who cared about her dignity. There were other people at home. She also added a lot of photos of herself, the cubs, her parents-in-law, her sister, and her brother-in-law's family to the album.
As they watched, the cubs opened their eyes and woke up, looking around the world curiously. Qin Rou took them to look at the photo of their father, pointed at the person in the photo, and said, "This is Dad." "
This is Mom."
Qin Rou knew that the two cubs were still nearsighted and could not see clearly, so she was just teasing them.
When they heard the two names of Dad and Mom, they also made humming sounds, and seemed very happy.
After the typhoon passed, Qin Rou put on her shoes and stood on the second-floor terrace to look into the yard.
——I hated to see it.
It was a mess.
The beautiful yard last year has become... Qin Rou couldn't bear to describe it. Her chicken fence collapsed, half of the chicken coop collapsed, the thatched umbrella fell down, and as for the other flowers and plants... the important thing to do is to quickly prop up the yellow lantern peppers and green kumquats.
Qin Rou: "..."
My kingdom is gone.
It's so painful. The little yard was so beautiful last year, but now it's full of colorful flowers, and now it's all in ruins...
Captain Zhang next door seems to be heartbroken in the yard.
Happiness is always short-lived.
As for Political Commissar Liu, who has made efforts but has not yet reaped any rewards, fortunately he has not returned home yet.
Do you know what it means to start all over again?
