Chapter 209
The winter break was two months long, and the kids had a blast playing for two months. Around the Chinese New Year, Chen Xiuxiu and Yang Yulan also had their break, so they all had a good rest. Every day at home was bustling with activity.
During the first few days of the Lunar New Year, everyone in the family returned to their parents' home. Fearing that Feng Guizhi would be left alone, they split their trips up to two days: the second and fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Yang Yulan and Song Jianye returned on the fourth day, and they bought a lot of New Year's goods.
The two little ones, wearing new clothes, followed Yang Yulan and Song Jianye all the way to Old Yang's house.
"Are you cold?" After getting off the car, the cold wind blew into her clothes. Yang Yulan turned her head and looked at the two children and asked.
Baoya shook her little head: "It's not cold."
Seeing that they were wearing warm clothes and didn't look cold, Yang Yulan felt relieved. Then, the family of four found an oxcart and rode for a while before arriving at Yang's house.
They stayed at the Yang family's for two days. Baoya and Tianen played with Anbao the whole time, so they didn't get bored. The three siblings got along very well. And with Yang Yuzhi and her family also visiting, the whole family was filled with cousins. The Yang family was a rare place to be. Yang Guozhong and his mother couldn't stop smiling.
Two days passed quickly, but it was finally time to say goodbye. Yang's mother and Yang Guozhong were both very reluctant to leave. An Bao also cried and held Bao Ya tightly, not wanting her to leave.
Baoya comforted her gently for a long time, and finally Anbao fell asleep from crying herself tired, and then she let go of her hand.
"You guys should leave quickly. It's tiring to drive all the way. You can rest for a while when you get home." Although she was reluctant to let them go, she was more worried that they were too tired from traveling all the way, Yang's mother said softly.
"Yeah." Yang Yulan said goodbye to her mother and Yang Guozhong, and then the family of four slowly walked away.
Although they were reluctant to leave, after all, the distance between the two sides was too far and it was not easy to see each other, but thinking that they were living a good life now, this was enough. After watching the backs of the family of four disappear from their sight, Yang's mother and Yang Guozhong turned around and went back into the house.
......
A few days passed, and soon it was the Lantern Festival. Feng Guizhi got up early in the morning and started busying herself, planning to make more delicious food just in time for the festival and to add to the festive mood.
Feng Guizhi plans to fry some Ma San Zi, which can be stored for a long time and tastes delicious.
The kids all love it. I originally planned to fry it before the Lunar New Year, but I made some stuffing and fried meatballs at that time, so I didn't do it. Also, Yang Yulan and Song Aimin's factory also received some New Year's gifts, and we couldn't finish them all right away, so we didn't rush to fry them. Now that I have some free time, it's perfect.
Fried ma san zi is quite oil-intensive, as the dough has to be soaked in oil before being fried. However, the Song family is now doing well and no longer worries about the oil.
The long chopsticks stirred in the oil pan, and soon a standard and beautiful sesame bun was ready. After draining the oil, it was placed in the steamed bun basket next to it.
Baoya and Tiantian were standing by and watching, both pairs of eyes fixed on the freshly-cooked Ma San Zi, with eager looks on their faces. Tiantian was so engrossed in watching that she started swallowing her saliva.
Feng Guizhi couldn't help but laugh. After the sesame seeds had cooled for a while and were no longer hot, she broke off a few and shared them with Baoya and Tiantian. They made a crispy sound when they were broken open, and the oily aroma in their mouths was incredibly fragrant.
"Delicious~!" Tiantian and Baoya's eyes lit up, and they praised Feng Guizhi generously.
"Nana, that's awesome."
The wrinkles on Feng Guizhi's face were smoothed out by her smile.
After the Lantern Festival, when the temperature has warmed up a bit, the children will have to go back to school. After playing for so long, the children are very happy to go back to school. They get up early in the morning and just wait to meet up with their friends at school.
When they met, they told each other about the fun things that happened during the winter vacation: "I picked up a kitten at the door of my house. The kitten looked so pitiful, so I asked my mother to raise it. Now it is fat and white, and looks very cute. You must come to my house to see it next time. You will definitely like it too."
"During the winter vacation, I went to the provincial capital with my father. Wow, the provincial capital is really big, and the houses are so... so high. Moreover, I saw a lot of..." As he said this, he raised his arms hard to gesture the height of the house.
"I went to my grandma's house during the Chinese New Year. I saw a lamb there and I fed it some grass."
"I did a lot of things during my winter break. I went ice skating and fished in the river. Let me tell you, the fish were all under the ice, and they were so fat..."
"And me and me..."
Everyone in the class was talking to each other, as if they were
It was as if everything that happened during the two-month winter vacation was being talked about all at once, and the whole house was bustling with activity.
Baoya sat down at her seat. When she saw her deskmate Zhang Shasha coming, a bright smile appeared on her face: "Shasha~"
"Baoya~!" Zhang Shasha happily called Baoya, and the two of them happily held hands and began to talk. However, most of the time, it was Zhang Shasha who did the talking, while Baoya listened attentively. This way of getting along was very suitable for the two of them.
"Baoya, I haven't seen you for a long time. Let me pinch your face..."
When Yu Xiaohui arrived at the classroom, her classmates didn't look at her strangely. A few months had passed, and everyone had slowly forgotten the incident. They were just ordinary classmates, not isolated from her, but their relationship wasn't particularly close.
Yu Xiaohui entered the classroom and sat next to Liu Lingling. She glanced at Baoya unconsciously, then quickly looked away. She and Liu Lingling began talking. However, after the previous incident, Yu Xiaohui's personality had become much more restrained, less outspoken, and much easier to get along with, but also a little cautious and less natural.
Today was just registration, so everyone didn’t spend much time in school. After the adults paid the tuition and received the textbooks, everyone went home.
"Baoya, see you tomorrow~" Zhang Shasha smiled and waved to Baoya, then slowly walked away behind her mother. Afterwards, Baoya met up with Yuanbao Boyu and the others, and also followed Feng Guizhi and the others home.
When they arrived home, they saw Zhang Hongli and Hong Guangwu waiting at the door. Feng Guizhi hurried over, opened the door, and welcomed them in, apologetically saying, "When did you get here? You must have been waiting outside for a long time, right?"
Sun Suyun: "Oh, I didn't know you would come today. If I had known, I would have stayed home today."
Zhang Hongli smiled and said, "It's okay, we just arrived not long ago. It's our fault too. We didn't ask clearly before coming, and only after we got here did we remember that the younger ones had their school start today."
"Sit down and take a rest."
Zhang Hongli put her shopping aside and found a stool to sit down. Looking at the children, she asked, "Have you all registered?"
"I've registered and picked up my books. I'm just waiting to go to class tomorrow."
"Wait this semester
After finishing this class, Boyu should be going to junior high school, right?"
"Yes, then I will be in the first grade of junior high school."
Zhang Hongli and Hong Guangwu had been spending a lot of time with the Song family over the past few months, resulting in a very close relationship. Feng Guizhi even treated her like one of her own. While they hadn't known each other very long, both sides felt they got along very well and were comfortable with each other. Furthermore, Zhang Hongli was now Baoya's godmother, further strengthening their relationship.
"Godfather and godmother~" Baoya called out softly and greeted Zhang Hongli and Hong Guangwu.
"Oh, so good." Zhang Hongli had a gentle smile on her face, feeling that her heart was filled with joy at this sound. She reached out and gently pulled Baoya closer, saying, "Come here and let godmother take a good look at us. It's been a while since I've seen our little girl Baoya."
Zhang Hongli looked at Baoya with indescribable fondness. After carefully examining her twice, she smiled and said, "She looks a little thinner than last time. Our Baoya is growing up, and her little chin is starting to point."
Before, after Baoya was added, her face was chubby, making her look particularly fair and cute. However, now that Baoya is six years old, she has lost some of the baby fat, and her chin has become a little more pointed, which makes her eyes look bigger. She still looks cute, but with a more delicate look.
At this time, Tiantian also squeezed over. Zhang Hongli reached out and held Tiantian in her arms. She pinched her little face and said with a smile: "Our Tiantian seems to have become heavier."
Tiantian is three years old this year and has begun to understand beauty and ugliness. When she heard Zhang Hongli say that she was sinking, her little brows furrowed in displeasure and she shook her head in denial: "Tiantian is not sinking, Tiantian just doesn't eat much~"
Zhang Hongli and Hong Guangwu were both amused and laughed non-stop. They echoed her words, "Yes, our Tiantian is not heavy at all. She is a little beauty, just like your sister Xiaobao."
As soon as these words were spoken, Tiantian immediately became happy and giggled.
At noon, Zhang Hongli and Hong Guangwu were both kept. Zhang Hongli couldn't sit still in the main room, so she followed Feng Guizhi into the kitchen to get busy, while Song Jianshe entertained Hong Guangwu.
"Aunt Feng is a good cook. I might be able to learn a couple of dishes if I follow her," Zhang Hongli said with a smile.
Feng Guizhi didn't stop her, and the two of them went to prepare lunch together. Feng Guizhi was very efficient, and so was Zhang Hongli. It didn't take long for the two of them to prepare a table of dishes.
After the dishes were served, Hong Guangwu couldn't help but say, "Hongli and I have admired Aunt Feng's cooking skills for a long time. I haven't eaten it yet, but I can smell the delicious food."
"If it smells good, you guys should eat more. Come and eat when you're free. You'll be full."
Zhang Hongli and Hong Guangwu agreed with a smile. Later, when the meal was almost over, Zhang Hongli said, "I came here today because I want to talk to my aunt about something." As she spoke, Zhang Hongli turned her head and looked at Hong Guangwu. The two of them looked at each other, both with smiles on their faces.
"What's the matter?" Feng Guizhi looked at their expressions and guessed that it must be a good thing, so she asked with a smile.
Baoya also turned her head to look at Zhang Hongli, waiting for her next words with her eyes wide open.
