Chapter 159: The Water-Bearing Strategy for Families with Two Children
Before the Chinese New Year, on the weekend when Gu Ye was resting, everyone went to the county market together.
Tuantuan and Yuanyuan had been there several times and knew that the market before the New Year was very lively, so they both got out of bed early in the morning on weekends.
I knocked on the door, and when my father said I could come in, I immediately opened the door and came in.
Mom and Dad are up, but my younger brother and sister are still sleeping in bed.
She put on her cotton shoes, climbed onto the bed, and while calling Niannian and Manman to get up, she put clothes on them.
Manman was a little grumpy when she woke up. She was woken up before she woke up naturally. Although it was her brothers who woke her up, after getting up, the little girl nestled in her mother's arms with her mouth still pouting.
When Chen Cuijuan saw her granddaughter like this, she laughed and joked: "Oh, our mouths are so full that we can hang a kettle on them. Wait, grandma, go get the kettle!"
Upon hearing this, Manman quickly covered her mouth and glared. Her brother's clothes wrapped her too tightly and made it inconvenient for her to move. Her round little butt quickly shrank into her mother's arms, she was terrified.
I was afraid that my grandma would really hang the kettle over my mouth.
Everyone burst into laughter instantly, Yuanyuan was even more exaggerated, holding her stomach and laughing breathlessly: "Stupid Manman, grandma is teasing you!"
Manman: “........”
I looked at my brothers, then at my father, grandmother, aunt and uncle, and found that they were all smiling, even the youngest brother smiled every year!
The little girl blushed, muttered "bad brother", then twisted her chubby legs wrapped in three layers of cotton pants and crawled into her mother's arms, smiling secretly and embarrassedly.
There were many people at the market, and Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan asked Shen Guowang and Gu Ye to keep an eye on the child for fear that he would get lost.
Shen Zhiyou and Gu Panddi held Nian Nian and Manman in their arms.
This was the first time for Nian Nian and Man Man to come to the market. They saw so many people, food everywhere, and people selling chicks and ducks. They were so busy that they couldn't take it all.
I don’t even know where to look!
Tuantuan and Yuanyuan were already very familiar with this place. They grabbed their uncle's hand and ran to the fried food stall to buy fried twisted dough sticks, sesame balls and sesame leaves.
Shen Guowang took out the money directly. Shen Zhiyou saw it and quickly stopped him: "What are you giving me?"
"Gu Ye, give me the money quickly."
“It’s not much money.”
Shen Guowang had just received the allowance. Being a rough man, he had no place to spend the money except buying things for his four nephews.
I didn't care what my sister said and just took out the money and gave it to the stall owner.
Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan are contentedly holding the fried food.
Shen Guowang took two fried dough twists, blew them to make sure they were not too hot, and then passed them to Niannian and Manman, whose eyes had long been glued to the fried dough twists. He smiled and said, "Hurry up, take them and eat them."
"Thank you, uncle."
Holding the fried dough twist in their hands, the freshly-out-of-the-pot fried dough twist was fragrant, crispy and crunchy. After taking a bite, the two little guys' eyes widened.
When I eat a lot and don’t like the food, I just stuff it into my dad’s mouth.
Whenever I eat something delicious, I put it into my mother’s mouth.
She took a bite of the fried dough twist and was amazed. She immediately passed it to her mother. Shen Zhiyou looked at the fried dough twist that was covered with saliva after being chewed by the little girl for a long time and said silently, "Manman, Mom is not hungry now, Manman, eat it yourself."
Manman blinked his eyes, and when he saw that his mother really didn't want to eat it, he retracted his hand and continued to slowly enjoy the big hemp flowers.
At this time, an old man was out with his granddaughter. When he saw this scene, he immediately turned around and taught his granddaughter: "See, we elders are so kind that we don't even want to eat the delicious food ourselves and leave it for you to eat."
The eldest granddaughter was touched and felt guilty, "Grandma, I will treat you well in the future."
Grandma was satisfied.
He was completely shocked. He hadn't even swallowed the fried dough stick in his mouth yet. He looked at his mother with his big round eyes, and soon a layer of mist appeared in his eyes.
Shen Zhiyou's scalp suddenly felt tingling, and Shen Guowang was laughing like crazy.
"Sister, look how touched we are. Come eat quickly."
Shen Zhiyou: "........Mom, when are you going to introduce Guowang to a date? He's already 30 and still not married!"
Shen Guowang: ".......Sister, you are really my sister."
Shen Zhiyou smiled: "It's the same. You are also my brother."
After scolding her brother, she turned around and continued to coax her daughter: "Mom is really not hungry, Manman, eat by yourself, and eat when Mom comes home."
After coaxing for a long time, Manman finally believed that her mother was really not hungry.
But when she got home, Shen Zhiyou's butt wasn't even warm yet.
The little girl fluttered her legs to grab a twisted dough stick, and wouldn't turn around to play with her brothers until she saw her mother eat it.
There are many children in the family, and not only parents, but also other relatives and elders have to slowly learn to treat them equally.
I bought fried dough twists for Tuantuan and Yuanyuan. Later, I saw Niannian and Manman looking at the little yellow chickens, so Shen Guowang bought four little yellow chickens for them.
Now all four little ones ran to see the little yellow chicken.
While packing up the things she bought at the market today, Chen Cuijuan sighed, "Now you can buy chickens, and no one cares how many you raise."
In the past, the management was so strict that only one family could raise two chickens.
People come to check from time to time, and neighbors report on each other.
Like today, when she bought a few chicks at the market and no one asked her anything, Chen Cuijuan felt like she was dreaming.
Shen Zhiyou thought, this is just the beginning, the changes that will come next will be terrifying!
The four little guys went to play with the chickens, and there was no one here to help, so Chen Cuijuan and the others cleaned up much faster.
Everyone had a stomach full of fried food, which took up a lot of space. So no one was planning to eat lunch and they would cook early in the afternoon.
Shen Zhiyou also stretched and planned to go and see what was so interesting about the chicken.
As soon as I walked into the yard, a bell rang at the door: "Is anyone home? There is a letter for you!"
