Wen Sihe gave birth to this pregnancy easily, and with the chicken soup that Lu Zhiye made for her using the forest water in the space, she recovered very quickly.
Just the day after the birth, the family rushed out of the hospital.
When he returned home, Tuantuan looked at his sister in his mother's arms without blinking.
He looked at his sleeping sister, lowered his voice, and asked Wen Sihe: "Mom, why is my sister different from Uncle Dayong's sister?"
"What's the difference?"
"Uncle Dayong's sister has a white layer on her body. Why doesn't my sister have it?"
When Qiao Qianqian and her family just returned home, Wen Sihe went to visit them with her two children.
At that time, Tuantuan looked at the dirty little sister with a layer of white stuff sticking to her body and was reluctant to go forward.
Others just thought he was shy, but actually he just felt it was ugly.
Da Zhuang said that his sister was sweet and soft. When Tuan Tuan saw the little sister at Uncle Dayong's house that day, he felt that everything he said was a lie.
Now, he looked at his sister with some surprise. Her body was a little red, but there was no white stuff. It looked really fragrant and soft.
Wen Sihe smiled gently and said, "That layer of white stuff is called vernix caseosa, and many babies have it on their bodies when they are just born.
Including when you two were born, you also had it on your body."
"Why isn't there anything on my sister?"
Wen Sihe didn't know how to answer this question, and looked at Lu Zhiye beside her as if asking for help.
Before Lu Zhiye could say anything, Yuanyuan couldn't help but laugh at her brother: "You don't know?
This is the same principle as the clay balls we make. Every clay ball is different, and of course every child is different too.”
He reached out his hand and wiped his nose cockily, looking at Tuantuan with pride.
Tuantuan ignored him and looked at Wen Sihe eagerly: "Can I hug my sister?"
Lu Zhiye quickly stepped forward and refused: "My sister is too small, you can't hold her, you can put her on the bed and pat her."
Tuan Tuan looked very happy, and Yuan Yuan who was standing beside him also came over to join him.
For the next few days, the two little ones didn't go out to play and stayed with their younger sister.
Many people from the team came to visit Wen Sihe, and most of them brought ten eggs.
For example, the educated youth would give half a pound of brown sugar as a token of their gratitude.
The little girl's eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Lu Zhiye, but her nose and mouth are like Wen Sihe.
Li Guihua looked at the baby in front of her with curiosity: "Oh, your daughter really has all the advantages of both of you.
Unlike the one in our family, there's nothing wrong with looking like his father, but he has to have the same skin color.
The girls are as black as coal, and even standing next to your family, they are not as white as them. "
When this was mentioned, Li Guihua felt filled with regret. Her son was like her, with both good and bad qualities.
The good thing is that her skin color has become whiter, but the bad thing is that when she stands next to her sister, she is whiter than the little girl.
Seeing Li Guihua slapping her thigh with envy, Wen Sihe's smile widened.
"Oh, by the way, has Wu Yu contacted you recently?"
Li Guihua sat slowly on the big kang, sewing the soles of shoes while asking.
Wen Sihe shook her head gently: "No, we haven't been in touch for nearly three months, what's the matter?"
Li Guihua sighed: "Didn't our educated youth Xiao Zhang go back home to visit his relatives some time ago?
She said she met Wu Yu. After all, the city is so big, it is normal to meet him.
But she said one thing that made me feel uneasy. "
Hearing Li Guihua say this, Wen Sihe became curious: "What's the matter?"
"Hasn't the slogan of rushing to support the border been shouted loudly in various provinces in recent times?
Many educated youth chose to go to support the Northwest. I heard from educated youth Zhang that someone also signed up for the hospital where Wu Yu worked.
She seems to be one of them.”
When this matter was mentioned, Li Guihua didn't even bother to sew her shoes. She looked at the photo on Wen Sihe's wall with a worried look on her face.
In that photo, she, Wen Sihe, Wu Yu and others were standing in front of the pear tree with bright smiles on their faces.
A few years have passed, and everything seems to have changed, yet it seems to have remained the same.
"Don't you think it's okay for her to just stay in the hospital?
Why did I suddenly think of going to those places? I had heard from others that life there was tough.
We also need to control sand dunes, as even in the hot summer the sun can burn off a layer of skin.
The place is big, and the county towns are far apart, so it’s not easy to buy something…”
As she spoke, Li Guihua's voice became choked.
When Wu Yu was at the educated youth point, Li Guihua truly treated her as her own sister.
Wen Sihe didn't know what to say about this, she gently patted Li Guihua's hand and said: "Everyone has their own ideals, some people just want to give full play to their own light and heat to build a better motherland.
It’s like people who are hungry are trying to get full, while people who are able to get full start thinking about other things.
Everyone has pursuits, and to us, that is a bitter and cold place.
But perhaps in Wu Yu's view, that is where she can realize her ideals."
In the past few years in the countryside, the educated youth had long been overwhelmed by the complicated farm work and their hopes of returning to the city were crushed.
In a brigade, there were twenty or thirty educated youth, and in recent years, at most two of them returned to the city.
It is conceivable how difficult it is to get a spot to return to the city.
Wu Yu was still a girl, and her family took great pains to get her a place.
That means her family is well off and her parents love her.
A child who grows up in such a family does not have to worry about making a living.
It's natural to want to pursue lofty ideals, but Wen Sihe feels that Wu Yu must have other reasons.
Li Guihua wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve: "You are right, everyone's pursuits are different."
"Sister Guihua, if you think about it from another angle, Wu Yu went directly there from the hospital, so he must be different from the other educated youth.
She is connected to a local hospital, where the conditions are a little inconvenient, but she doesn’t have to do farm work like the educated youth. ”
Li Guihua breathed a sigh of relief: "I hadn't thought about this before, I was just being too superficial.
Alas, I don’t know when this kind of days will end.
I now feel that I have completely integrated into Dahe Village.
Sometimes I wonder if I will stay here forever. "
Although Li Guihua works in a food factory, she still has no roots in her heart.
Wen Sihe pursed her red lips. If she remembered correctly, the college entrance examination would be resumed at the end of next year.
There were no restrictions in the first year of the college entrance examination, and even married people could take it.
This year, many educated youth will use this stepping stone to return to the city.
Wen Sihe looked at the sadness on Li Guihua's face and decided to think about it carefully at night. How should he bring up this matter?
