In the evening, the whole family sat together for dinner. Because there were so many people, six tables were set up.
Jian Yuelan held Doudou in her arms and ate hard, while Ye Linxing was getting along with his elder and younger brothers-in-law.
Father Jian dug out two jars of wine from under the apricot tree in the backyard and poured a glass for each adult man.
Then he asked Jane's mother and the others, "Do you want some?"
"Come!"
Grandma brought over cigarettes and alcohol, and quickly raised her glass.
Jian Yuelan was also greedy, so she raised the cup and handed it over.
Jane's father didn't want to pour her a cup at first, but then he remembered that she had stopped breastfeeding, so he poured her a cup.
"Dad, why is this wine so strong?"
She took a sip and felt a burning sensation in her throat that spread from her mouth all the way to her stomach. It felt a bit strange.
Jian Zhengnan, who had driven back to take them to the station the next morning, swallowed the garlic-smeared pork in his mouth and smiled with narrowed eyes, "This is the wine Dad buried the day after you were born. It's been over 20 years now."
Ye Linxing's eyes lit up when he heard it, "Daughter's red wine."
"It's OK to say daughter's red wine, but not so much for alcohol."
Recalling his feelings when he buried the wine, Father Jian said with a smile, "Zhizhi's birth was such a surprise to the whole family that our minds were all foggy."
The daughter that generations have been waiting for is finally here.
How can I describe that feeling? It's similar to when you've been dreaming about getting rich day and night for most of your life, and one day, a huge lump of gold suddenly falls on the road while you're walking.
Emotions such as disbelief, helplessness, tears of joy, etc. followed one after another.
"I didn't sleep all night and didn't know what to do. It just so happened that my third brother brought over over ten kilograms of wine from his home. On a whim, I washed two small jars and buried five of them under the apricot tree."
Speaking of this, he was quite emotional. "Back then, the apricot tree was just a seedling, and my daughter was only one day old. Now the apricot tree has grown into an old tree, and my daughter has become a mother."
"My daughter!"
A child's voice suddenly rang out with a resounding sound.
Then there was the sound of clapping.
Hearing the clear baby voice, everyone looked at Shu Bai.
Everyone thought it was the tone that Shu Bai spoke.
But Xiaodoudou, who was sitting on Jian Yuelan's lap, said again -
"My daughter."
As he spoke, he chuckled, and his chubby hands happily patted Jian Yuelan, and he said again, "Zhizhi."
The air suddenly became quiet.
Jian Yuelan lowered her eyes and looked at the fat kid in her arms who was laughing like a fool. She squinted her eyes and said softly, "Who are you calling Zhizhi? Call mom."
It’s both a daughter and Zhizhi, this little brat is going to heaven.
It's amazing that a child doesn't call himself "mom" but "daughter" and his name.
"Zhizhi."
The main characteristic of little brats is rebellion. The more you ask them to call you mom, the more they will talk to you.
Seeing Jian Yuelan's face becoming increasingly ugly, Ye Linxing, who was worried about his fat son getting beaten, reached out and hugged him, "Son, call me daddy."
"No."
He pushed Ye Linxing's face away with his chubby little hand, turned around and stretched out his hand towards Jian Yuelan, "I know, I know..."
He kept shouting like chanting a sutra.
Jian Yuelan had no choice but to hug him and said angrily, "I told you to call me mommy. If you call my name again, I'll spank you."
"No."
He hugged his chest with his little hands, his chubby face turned towards her stubbornly, and his big eyes like black grapes were covered with a layer of mist.
Even though Jian Yuelan hadn't done anything yet, her mother and sister-in-law were already heartbroken.
"Just let him know. It's a good thing that he's willing to speak up."
It's better than saying "ah ah" or "oh oh" all day long.
"When he's older, he'll be willing to call for help."
"I'm afraid he'll get addicted to calling me mom and dad and won't call them mom and dad."
"That won't happen."
Jian Zhengdong has his say on this topic. "When Shuyu first started talking, he didn't say 'Mommy/Daddy', but 'Eat'. He kept asking 'Eat' to everyone he saw. I don't know if it was because the pronunciation of 'Eat' appealed to him or for some other reason, but it took him three full months to start calling out 'Mommy/Daddy' and 'Grandma/Grandpa'."
It would be better not to say this, because it would make Jian Yuelan feel even worse.
However, the little brat had no reason to reason with and could only endure it.
"Eat, eat, everyone, eat and drink well. Don't be polite, take away any leftovers."
"Walk!"
The little fat boy started to parrot again, and single words popped out.
"You are everywhere, eat your egg paste."
Jian Yuelan filled a spoonful of egg custard and stuffed it into his mouth, finally blocking the kid's mouth.
The dinner was very sumptuous. After the women of the Jane family had done the preliminary preparations, the men were responsible for cooking it. Those who were good at cooking all presented their specialties.
Mainly meat, vegetarian dishes...
If you count pickled vegetables like sauerkraut, it’s still quite a lot.
In addition, there are fresh cabbage and radish.
In the era of scarce oil and water, both men and women eat a lot.
Even if they prepared more, there was nothing left at the end of the meal. Even the soup in the stew was eaten up by the men by dipping it in the steamed buns.
After the meal, everyone had a full belly.
"Comfortable."
After a full meal, little Jian Shuheng lay down on the kang with his round belly. Seeing Doudou sitting on the kang and entertaining himself with Dali, he grabbed a sandbag and handed it to him, "Auntie, can you not leave tomorrow?"
"cannot."
Jian Yuelan touched his head and asked, "Why, are you reluctant to let your aunt go?"
"I can't bear to leave."
The child was sincere. He hugged Jian Yuelan's arm and said, "Aunt, you have more meat at home."
"It seems you are not reluctant to part with your aunt, but you are reluctant to part with the meat your aunt brought back."
