Chapter 276 Grown Up
Liu Yinyin asked him: "Do you want to go out and play?"
Gu Yanyan nodded very seriously.
All right, it’s still early, we can still make dumplings later.
Liu Yinyin put on her hat and went out with her little friend.
I wanted to go to Ma Guilan's place to find out the gate, but halfway there, I happened to see a playground on the side of the road. There were many children playing inside, some were playing football...
When the troops built the house, they took into consideration the large number of children in the family compound and specially built a playground for the children to play.
When he saw Gu Yanyan, his eyes lit up instantly.
Liu Yinyin thought about it and led him to the playground.
Children also know how to form companions when playing. Boys and girls usually play separately, and older children are not interested in playing with a group of little kids.
There are many children as old as Gu Yanyan.
Liu Yinyin originally let Gu Yanyan go and play by himself, but inadvertently, she saw two familiar little faces.
Liu Yinyin was delighted and greeted, "Da Mao, Er Mao..."
Da Mao and Er Mao are Xu Zhenzhen’s children whom she met on the train.
Ermao was young and didn't remember much, but Damao was five or six years old, but he did remember Liu Yinyin......
Hearing Liu Yinyin calling him, he ran over and asked, "Aunt Yinyin, you called me?"
Liu Yinyin nodded, bent down and asked him, "Where's your mother?"
Damao said seriously, "My mother went to buy groceries and asked me to play with my brother."
"Da Mao is so good." Liu Yinyin took out four White Rabbit candies from her pocket and gave them to him. "Go back and share some with your brother. Bring your brother Yanyan to play with you, okay?"
Da Mao patted the White Rabbit candy in his pocket and grinned, "Thank you, Auntie."
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately pulled Gu Yanyan away.
Quite polite, Liu Yinyin smiled.
I didn't rush back and just found a stool nearby to sit down.
After buying groceries, Xu Zhenzhen came over with a basket to see her two sons.
As soon as I arrived at the playground, I saw Liu Yinyin sitting nearby.
"Zhenzhen..." Liu Yinyin also saw Xu Zhenzhen and stood up to make room for her.
"What a coincidence! I was just about to ask someone where you live." Xu Zhenzhen said happily, "You helped me so much last time, and I haven't thanked you yet."
Liu Yinyin glanced at the children playing in the crowd, turned around and said with a smile: "It's just a small favor, why thank me, I just asked Da Mao and Er Mao to play with Yan Yan."
"Let's put it this way." Xu Zhenzhen waved her hand and said, "I have already discussed it with my Zhijun. I will invite you three to my home for a warm meal. You must come."
"Warm house meal?" Liu Yinyin was a little surprised. "Zhenzhen, your family is also planning to invite people to have a warm house meal?"
Xu Zhenzhen nodded twice: "Of course I have to invite you. I finally live in a new building. I am very happy."
The most important thing is that from now on this will be their small home of four, without the interference of parents-in-law and other relatives.
It’s such a big happy event, Xu Zhenzhen really wants to celebrate it.
Liu Yinyin understood and said, "Okay, if I'm free, I'll definitely go."
Anyway, we all live in the same courtyard, so it’s not far away.
When Xu Zhenzhen returned home, she did not bring her two sons with her and left them to play on the playground by themselves.
She didn't worry about her two children at all. When they were tired or hungry from playing, they would go home on their own.
Liu Yinyin looked at him with envy, thought for a moment, and called Gu Yanyan over to wipe the sweat off his forehead.
Then he asked, "Do you want to play here? Or go back with mom?"
Gu Yanyan said without thinking: "Play..."
Liu Yinyin discussed with him: "Then you can play here, and mom will go back first, okay? I will pick you up later."
She thought that the young man probably didn't know the way back, so she would have to pick him up a few times and wait until he was familiar with the way before going back by himself.
Gu Yanyan murmured, "Wait for mom to pick me up."
Liu Yinyin rubbed his hair and said, "Okay, you can play here by yourself. Remember not to run around or follow strangers, okay?"
Hearing Liu Yinyin's rambling, the boy couldn't wait any longer: "I know, Mommy... I'm going to play."
Liu Yinyin: "...Go ahead."
well!
As an old mother, she really worries too much.
Thinking that nothing would happen in the army, Liu Yinyin calmed down and went home.
They had dumplings for lunch. She was the only one at home, and making dumplings took a lot of time, so she decided to make them early.
Liu Yinyin first scooped a bowl of flour and dough.
While the dough is resting, peel the shrimps and chop them into puree. Add minced garlic, ginger, chopped carrots and seasonings and mix well.
I don't know how long it took, Liu Yinyin was busy making dumplings, when she suddenly heard a rustling sound...
It came from the front door, and the sound was quite quiet.
Liu Yinyin didn't want to pay attention to it, but after a while, there was another shouting sound from outside.
"Mom... open the door..."
Liu Yinyin: “…”
When I opened the door, I saw the kid sweating profusely while playing.
Liu Yinyin asked in surprise: "Why did you come back by yourself? Didn't I tell you not to run around?"
Gu Yanyan ran into the room, pointed at the teapot on the table and said, "Drink some water..."
He was thirsty and came back to drink water, he didn't run around.
Liu Yinyin was surprised and happy, and quickly poured a glass of water for the little guy.
Gu Yanyan gulped down a bowl of water, put down the cup and wanted to go out again.
Liu Yinyin wiped his face with a towel and asked him, "Do you still want to go out and play? Do you know where the playground is?"
Gu Yanyan looked up and said to Liu Yinyin, "I know."
Liu Yinyin: “…”
This is her first time raising a child, and she doesn’t understand many things. How can a child under three years old really remember things like this?
No matter what, it's always better to be careful.
After Gu Yanyan left the house, Liu Yinyin followed him for a while.
Seeing Gu Yanyan running to the playground with his short legs, he actually found his little playmate.
The old mother Liu Yinyin's worried heart finally settled down.
Well, the little guy has finally grown up and doesn't need her to worry about him all the time.
By noon, Liu Yinyin had finished making the dumplings, more than eighty in total.
Dumplings don’t keep well in hot weather, so for the family of three, cooking fifty dumplings is enough for lunch.
There are more than thirty left...
There was no refrigerator at that time, so it was not easy to save the dumplings for eating in the evening.
Liu Yinyin thought about it, took a lunch box and packed a box of dumplings and went out.
Walking to the next door, Liu Yinyin knocked on the door.
After waiting for a long time, Zheng Qiangwei finally came out to open the door and asked blankly, "Sister-in-law, is there anything wrong?"
Liu Yinyin smiled: "...I just made some shrimp dumplings, but there were too many to finish, so I packed a box for you. You... just put them in the pot and cook them and you can eat them."
