Chapter 293 Xia Xia is so good, as smart as her mother
The Fu family had a quiet time from 1975 to 1976.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Fu Jingyou only went to the He family. He did not visit other families in the village during the New Year's Eve.
The relationship with the He family is still going on as usual.
Fu Jingyou simply stopped associating with Brother He's branch.
At the beginning of spring, news came from the county.
Two large iron bulls have been shipped from Tianjin, and the other two are on the way.
The county equipment contracting group will soon start work to revitalize the industry.
Fu Jingyou didn't care at all. Apart from going to work, he devoted all his heart to his wife and children.
Since Lu Miao hadn't woken up yet, he stayed with her and focused on the child.
The baby, who was only a few months old and couldn't even roll over, was always held in his hands and coaxed to call daddy and mommy.
He Hongjin's hair has turned a lot whiter and he is worried sick.
The county is an opportunity that many people dream of but cannot get.
He didn't want Fu Jingyou to miss this opportunity, but given the situation of the Fu family, he really couldn't open his mouth to persuade him.
But it won't work if we keep doing this.
When will Lu Miao wake up?
Will Lu Miao wake up?
These are countless things.
He Hongjin was tongue-tied and couldn't think of what to say, so he could only worry. Later, he found Tang Mei privately.
Tang Mei understood what he meant. This was not a solution.
Two children, one lying in bed unable to move, and the other cannot be tripped around the house all the time.
Tang Mei was thinking of an excuse, so she told Fu Jingyou what happened when he came back for lunch after plowing the fields.
"I've heard about your job in the county. It's a good place and a good job... Now that your family is stable and I'm looking after you, you should consider your real job."
Fu Jingyou held Erbao high in his arms.
Erbao kicked his legs and laughed, and Fu Jingyou also laughed happily.
Hearing Tang Mei's words, Fu Jingyou's smile faded slightly. After a moment, he lifted Erbao up and teased him again:
"Let's talk about this later."
"Talk about it later, talk about it later. When will you talk about it later? The county values you and wants you to take charge first, but you always procrastinate... How can they agree? Can they keep waiting for you?"
"If you don't want to wait, then don't wait. There's no shortage of money at home now."
Tang Mei got angry when she heard his self-destructive and complacent words:
"I have enough money to spend now, but without a regular income, how can I ever be short of money in the future?"
"As Dabao and Erbao grow up, will they eat for free? Will they drink for free? What about school in the future?"
Fu Jingyou remained unmoved.
Tang Mei asked, "What about Xiaobao? He's living off his savings. When medical care improves and there's really good medicine, will our family be able to afford it?"
"I know. I know what's going on."
Fu Jingyou's mind sank slightly. He retracted his arms, held Erbao in his arms, and softened his voice to coax and tease him:
"Oh, look at our Xia Xia, so well-behaved and sensible! She can even smile and make daddy happy, right? Huh? Xia Xia is so well-behaved, and as smart as mommy."
Fu Jingyou teased Erbao and walked back to the room leisurely.
Tang Mei frowned and sighed with a heavy heart.
At night, Fu Jingyou filled some hot water for Lu Miao to wash his body. He rarely moved the rocking bed to Tang Mei's room and let Dabao and Erbao sleep with Tang Mei.
Fu Jingyou changed Lu Miao into clean clothes.
She also applied Yashuang lotion on her hands and face, and clam oil on her feet.
After rubbing it carefully until it was absorbed, Fu Jingyou turned off the kerosene lamp and hugged the person in his arms as before.
Lu Miao's body was soft and she leaned on him obediently.
He stared out the dark window, not knowing what he was thinking, and only spoke to himself intermittently:
"Last year, the team fermented enough fertilizer, which increased the harvest by 10-20%. When Captain Bai found out, he came over and asked for the fertilizer fermentation method. He also told the commune about it, and the commune director rewarded our family with two thermoses."
"This year, my uncle organized the team to raise six acres of rice fish. What was the price for the fry before? The county is encouraging everyone to develop side businesses, and this time it was Hu Zhiyuan who got the fry, so he gave us a much lower price."
"A large iron ox has arrived from Tianjin, and the county is about to start construction... My aunt asked me to go to work, so I think it's time to go."
"I'll need to take you to the doctor, buy medicine for you, and pay for Mingyi and Mingxia's tuition. Mingxia will grow up, and I'll need to save for her dowry."
"...Let's go to Yanji to get a haircut tomorrow. There are no gardenias this season."
"I'll pick some for you when the gardenias bloom in June, okay? Hmm? Miaomiao."
No one responded.
Fu Jingyou nodded and kissed Lu Miao's forehead gently.
In the dark night, the room was silent.
Outside the window, the chirping of various insects gradually became noisy.
Fu Jingyou is highly regarded by the county and will be in charge of the equipment team in the future, so he started work earlier than others.
First, understand the content of the work.
Secondly, it is to become familiar with the routes that adapt to the nearby counties and towns.
The work of the equipment group is very diverse.
He is responsible for opening and repairing the railway, cooperating with the county in mobilization, taking charge of special transportation work, and assisting in supporting certain aspects of agricultural development.
Sometimes, if you want to go to a neighboring province or county, you also need to get a permit and spend a few days in another place.
As life became busier and his attention was diverted, Fu Jingyou lost some of his decadent energy. Although he lost a lot of weight, he was in good spirits.
The weather is getting warmer and it is June.
Dabao and Erbao are already nine months old. They are gradually starting to stand up unsteadily, and are entering the stage where cats and dogs are no longer allowed to do anything.
Tang Mei has to take care of the house, and sometimes she can't take care of Dabao and Erbao. The two little guys are running around everywhere, crawling around, and are always dirty.
Fu Jingyou happened to have just returned from delivering grass seeds from the neighboring county and had three days of rest.
Fu Jingyou took some free time and nailed out a small square fence frame of 4 meters x 4 meters.
Lay a mat of appropriate size on the ground and then nail the frame on it.
Just like raising piglets, you enclose an area to restrict the older and younger babies from crawling and running around.
Fu Jingyou is also a handy man. He is afraid that Dabao and Erbao will be bored because of being restrained, so he usually brings a piece of wood and a small carving knife to work.
When there is no work, people sit in the big iron ox, tilt their heads and carve for a whole day.
He carved all kinds of things, including small wooden horses, small birds, small boats and small carps.
After carving the puppy and kitten this time, he had another creative idea and spent several days carving little dolls of a family of four holding hands.
This was my first time carving a figurine, so my craftsmanship seemed a bit rough.
Fu Jingyou, however, cherished them very much, thinking that when he got home from work, he would bring the little animals to his eldest and second babies to play with.
This "family of four" can be placed somewhere.
Thinking of this and seeing that the time was almost up, Fu Jingyou got down from the big iron ox carrying a large bag of wood carvings.
After saying hello to Wang Xiaohu and others who lived on campus, he took his keys and rode his bike home.
The people behind him scratched their heads and discussed:
"Aren't there plenty of empty classrooms in school? It's dozens of miles away, why are you running back and forth every day?"
