Chapter 216 The Holiday Ends
"After all, this is your first time visiting our house, so you have to leave a good impression on us," said Father Fu.
"Hey, what was that novel you were talking about just now? Is it really that good?"
Father Fu glanced at Mother Fu and nodded. "Yes, the novel was really popular at the time. I was thinking when Fu Ming mentioned Ye Qian's name, I seemed to have heard it somewhere before. So it was here. But I didn't expect Comrade Ye Qian to have written another book. I must take a good look at it when I get back."
"Yeah, yeah, now you have something to do."
As the Fu family's parents were talking, they returned to the living room. At this time, Grandpa Fu had already put on his reading glasses and started reading the newspaper.
Grandpa Fu nodded as he looked at it: "Yeah, not bad."
Mother Fu laughed and said, "Not only do you have to do it now, but Dad has something to do too."
After finishing one copy, Grandpa Fu stopped and blamed Fu Ming: "How long have you been here? Why are you just taking out the newspaper now? What have you been doing? You've made me so bored at home every day."
Fu Ming naturally did not dare to refute Grandpa Fu's words, and immediately apologized: "Yes, yes, yes, my dear grandpa, I'm sorry, it's my fault."
Fu Shan was naturally curious as well, so she flipped through the novel with great interest. It would have been fine if she hadn't flipped through it, but once she did, she was fascinated. She read to the end and still felt unsatisfied.
But that’s a story for later. At this time, Gu Jinyan brought his family back home. Ye Qian washed the children’s hands and let them play by themselves.
It is Ye Qian's habit to wash hands when entering the door. This is a good habit that she wants to pass on to her children. At the beginning, when everyone is not used to it, they will find it troublesome and annoying, but once they are used to it, they will do it naturally, and it is indeed much cleaner this way.
It is very cold during the Chinese New Year every year. Except for going out to pay New Year's greetings, everyone stays at home at other times. They light a small stove and sit around to chat. When there were only two people at home, Gu Jinyan didn't like to talk, but Ye Qian loved to stick to Gu Jinyan.
Now there are more and more people at home, and Gu Jinyan is still not talkative, but Ye Qian is still the same and likes to stick to Gu Jinyan.
As soon as Gu Jinyan sat down, Ye Qian immediately stuck to him. No matter how the other children pushed and shoved, it was useless. Ye Qian was always on the other side of Gu Jinyan.
Ye Qian had asked this question before, and Gu Jinyan answered, "It's not that children are unimportant. They are a very important part of our lives, but only a part. It's an honor to be able to participate in their birth, growth, adulthood, marriage and having children. But it's you who will spend the rest of my life with me, so naturally, you have to be my priority."
To be honest, Ye Qian was very moved by these words. After all, people just love to hear these mushy and sweet love words.
Several adults and children sat together, and Ye Qian was roasting glutinous rice cakes on the stove in the middle.
This was also what Ye Qian's grandparents taught her when she was a child. At that time, Ye Qian's favorite was to put the glutinous rice cake directly on the tongs and bake it. The sides and corners must also be baked. It is best to bake it until a small i-shaped hole appears, then split it in half and eat it with sugar.
I can't think about it, my mouth starts watering.
When they were alone together, Gu Jinyan often made it for Ye Qian. Now, Ye Qian has fallen in love with another way of eating it, brown sugar rice cake.
This is also a very famous snack in later generations. Ye Qian likes to make it directly at home. She just fries the glutinous rice cake with oil and then puts it into brown sugar water diluted with water to cook (the way of eating it is different in different places, don’t worry about it). The taste is unforgettable for a long time.
Gu Jinyan naturally knew what Ye Qian was thinking, and started preparing without waiting for Ye Qian to speak.
After seeing this, Ningning said, "Dad is partial. He made Mom's favorite food without Mom saying anything. We've been waiting for a long time, and Dad didn't even offer to help us."
When Ranran heard Ningning's words, she lectured Ye Qian without waiting for her to speak: "What you said is nonsense, Daddy will naturally help Mommy."
"But I also want someone to help me."
Ningning was unwilling to accept it, and Ranran immediately retorted: "You are just lazy. We are not children anymore. The teacher said that we should do our own things."
"Yeah, Mom didn't do it herself."
"Isn't mom dad's daughter-in-law? Mom has someone to help her, so she doesn't have to do it herself." Ranran explained seriously.
"Ah, then if I get married in the future, do I have to do this for my wife as well?"
Ningning's words successfully made Ye Qian's throat choke, and also made Gu Jinyan and Aunt Lan laugh out loud.
Aunt Lan: "Ningning wants to get married at such a young age."
"I don't really want to." Ningning felt that if he got married, he would not only have to do his own things, but also help his wife do things, which would make life very difficult.
No one expected that such a small thing would cause Ningning to be afraid to have a partner for a long time in the future. Of course, this is a story for later.
The Chinese New Year is like this, sometimes lively and sometimes deserted, but it only lasts a few days and passes in a flash.
Mr. Fu has a job, so he had to take a leave to come here and play for a few days. It would be too unreasonable for him not to go to work at the beginning of the new year, so he started packing his luggage.
The trains are very slow nowadays, and it would take several days to get back.
After having lunch at Ye Qian's place, the Fu family went directly to the train station. Ye Qian naturally couldn't let the Fu family leave like that, so she prepared a lot of food the night before so that it would be convenient for them to take it with them on the road.
After dinner, he handed the child to Aunt Lan and went out to send the Fu family to the train station.
Ye Qian handed the things to Fu's mother: "Aunt Fu, I prepared some food. Eat the ones that can't be put aside first."
Mother Fu said distressedly: "Why are you working so hard, kid? It will only take a few days, and the chaos will be over."
Ye Qian didn't care: "How can that be? You should be more careful about this when you go out."
"Thank you, kid."
Mrs. Fu couldn't refuse. It was Ye Qian's kindness, and it was made specially for them. It would be wrong not to take it.
Grandpa Fu, who was standing by, had been staring at the bag of food for a long time, but there were so many people at the station that it was inconvenient to open it now.
This time the train was not much late. After waiting for more than an hour, the train arrived. After everyone was sent on the train, Gu Jinyan, Ye Qianye, Fu Ming and Fu Shan said goodbye directly.
Ye Qian smiled and said to Fu Shan, "See you when school starts."
Fu Shan nodded shyly: “Well, sister-in-law, see you at the beginning of school.
The four left the train station.
Ye Qian was so tired after returning home that Gu Jinyan directly prepared some hot water for Ye Qian to soak her feet. Ye Qian fell asleep in a short while.
There was not much time left in the vacation, but there was not much time anyway. After everyone enjoyed the last good time at home, Gu Jinyan's vacation came to an end.
Then Ranran started school, then Ningning and Xixi started school, and finally Ye Qian started school, one by one in an orderly manner.
