Chapter 116



Lin Yiyi is a woman, so she naturally cannot understand a man's feelings, but she knows Xiao Yu's character, and it is impossible for him to break up with Xiao Wu. No matter what, they are brothers. Even her father values ​​brotherhood so much, not to mention men of this era, and Xiao Yu is a soldier, so he values ​​brotherhood more than ordinary people.

Xiao Yu said, "I've talked to Dad. Since it's impossible for my eldest brother to get a divorce, after all, he has a child. If you don't want to hang out with the eldest wife, don't do that. The old house will put up a wall in the next two days, so even if you go to the old house, you won't see them."

Lin Yiyi: "Then I won't associate with them anymore. Big brother is big brother, and Qi spinach is Qi spinach, I know that."

Xiao-Woo: "Well, in June, you won't see them even if you go to the island."

Lin Yiyi: "Okay, I understand."

The next day, Xiao Yu returned to the army.

The events of the Xiao family's New Year's Eve were widely spread. Xiao Wu's face was covered with scratches, and Qi's mother took away Qi's spinach. Everyone in the team had a different story about this, but no matter what the story was, Lin Yiyi didn't care.

"Second sister-in-law, are you there?"

Lin Yiyi: “Yes.”

Liang: "My husband brought some spare ribs from the supply and marketing cooperative." After Lin Sanjun left, Xiao Bin took over the job at the pig farm. There were many piglets that needed to be sterilized at the beginning of the year, so Xiao Bin, who was originally scheduled to start work in June, went to work early.

Lin Yiyi: "Did the commune slaughter pigs today?" When the commune slaughtered pigs, pig farm employees had priority purchasing rights and they didn't need tickets. Xiao Bin knew that Lin Yiyi often bought spare ribs to make soup, so he brought them to her.

Liang: "Yes, the pork I've eaten in the past two years is more than the previous ten years combined." Although she has eaten less in the past two years, it's still more than ten pounds a year, which is much better than the previous few years when she could only eat one or two pounds at the end of the year. And out of this one or two pounds, she could only eat one or two pieces.

Lin Yiyi: "So life is getting better and better." Then she took out some money and said, "Here's the money for the ribs. Here it is."

Liang: “No, no, no.”

Lin Yiyi: "Hurry up and take it. This is not enough for just one time. Every month when the commune kills pigs, ask my third brother to bring me two kilograms of ribs."

Liang: "Then I won't be polite."

Liang: "Second sister-in-law, I heard that after we build the wall, Qi Spinach will come back. Grandpa and eldest brother have been building it these days, and my husband is also building it when he gets home from get off work in the evening."

Lin Yiyi: "It's expected. After all, the elders have to take care of them.

As for Xiao Rui and Xiao Zhu, their parents are divorced, which is always bad for them. "Divorce is very common in modern times and can be seen in various news every day, so when parents divorce, people will not have different views on their children. But this era is different. If Xiao Wu and Qi Bocai divorced, Xiao Rui and Xiao Zhu would be gossiped about if they went out.

Moreover, in this era, unless the woman did something too extreme, such as cheating on her husband or being unable to have children, the man would definitely divorce her. After all, divorce was too new in this era.

By the time the Xiao family's wall was built, it was already the beginning of the first lunar month. According to the solar calendar, it was the beginning of March in 1965, and Little Eleven was five and a half months old. At five and a half months old, Little Eleven had learned four skills: he could babble, roll over skillfully, sit up, and crawl. However, he could only roll over after taking a bath, and when he was wearing a cotton sweater and cotton trousers, or a cotton jacket, he could not roll over smoothly. However, this child was particularly good at speaking, which he inherited from Lin Sijun and Lin Wudi. Lin Sijun chattered with him every day, and Lin Wudi told him stories every day, so the child could babble earlier than others, although Lin Yiyi could not understand his babbling.

After breakfast, Lin Yiyi washed up, took a large straw mat and placed it in the yard, then spread a thin cushion covered with a quilt on it.

Lin Yiyi put Xiao Shiyi on the cushion, took a small doll made of rags and let the child play with it, while she started washing clothes.

"Is this where Lin Yiyi's home is?"

A strange male voice came from the door.

Before Lin Yiyi could say anything, she heard Xiao Eleven speak: "Yiya...Yiya..." Lin Yiyi's name was particularly easy to pronounce. After all, it was the name given to her by Xiao Yu when he was eight years old. So Xiao Eleven could pronounce his mother's name very smoothly. Whenever someone called Lin Yiyi's name, he would follow and call it Yiiya, as if he knew that they were calling his mother.

Lin Yiyi: “Yes.”

Xiao Shiyi: “One…one…”

Lin Yiyi: "You play with the doll by yourself, mom will come over later." Lin Yiyi walked to the door and saw the postman, "Is there my package?"

The postman said: "There is a letter for you, sent from the army." When the postman took out the things, he would look at the name and naturally see the letter.

The letter sent from the army could only be from Lin Sanjun. Xiao Yu would not send a letter, and would leave the island directly if something happened, so this letter must be a letter of safety written by Lin Sanjun.

Lin Yiyi: “Thank you.”

Postman: "You're welcome, sign here.

. "

Lin Yiyi: “Hey.” She said as she read the letter. Sure enough, it was from Lin Sanjun.

When Little Eleven saw that his mother ignored him, he became anxious and shouted, "Yiya...Yiya..." and started running out.

Lin Yiyi: "...Mom is here, your third uncle has sent a letter." She came and sat down next to her son. The little guy immediately climbed to his mother's side, then stood up shakily with his mother's shoulders, "Ah..."

Lin Yiyi hugged him and kissed him: "Are you calling your mother's name? If you want to call mother, come, repeat after me, mother..."

Little Eleven: "One..."

Lin Yiyi: “Mom…”

Little Eleven: "One..."

Lin Yiyi: "People say that villains are more likely to do evil, and they are talking about you."

Little Eleven giggled and then kept babbling.

Lin Yiyi opened the letter. Lin Sanjun's letter was very thick. He was a man who didn't talk much, but he had so many words in his letter. He wrote about what he saw and heard on the way to the army, his situation after arriving at the army, his life in the army, the 40 yuan given by Sanfang, and his condolences to several brothers. After reading the letter, she put it aside. She was a little surprised that Sanfang actually gave 40 yuan to Sanjun.

Lin Yiyi: "Eleven, we will write a letter to Third Uncle this afternoon. Do you have anything to say to him?"

Little Eleven was already lying flat on the cushion, with his four legs up in the air, playing with a stuffed doll.

Lin Yiyi looked at him and came up with an idea.

After washing and drying the clothes, she went to the study to get paper and pen, preparing to write a letter to Lin Sanjun, but she first left a mark of Xiao Shiyi at the end of the letter.

Lin Yiyi: "Don't move, Eleven. Mom will leave your footprints on the letter paper so that your third uncle can see that our Eleven has grown up." It is true that a newborn baby grows one month in one day. Lin Sanjun has been in the army for a month, and Eleven has changed even more.

Lin Yiyi asked Eleven to stand up, and then took off his socks. It was not cold in March, and the sun was shining. "Eleven, put your feet here." She lifted Eleven's feet and placed them on the letter paper. "Eleven, don't move. Mommy is going to draw your feet."

Looking at her son's feet, Lin Yiyi also added various citric acids. This smooth and tender skin is only for babies. But thinking that she is only 20 years old, the skin of a 20-year-old girl is also very good, she is satisfied again.

Little Eleven watched his mother drawing his feet and didn't move obediently. It wasn't because he understood his mother's instructions not to move, but because the child was curious, so he watched quietly.

Although the baby is only 5 and a half months old, he will be curious about new things.

After drawing little Eleven’s feet, Lin Yiyi put socks on him, then let him lie down, put his little hands on the letter paper, and started drawing his hands. After finishing the drawing, she wrote on the footprints and handprints: Eleven’s feet, Eleven’s hands.

When Little Eleven saw that his mother had stopped drawing, he curiously stretched his head over to take a look.

Lin Yiyi showed him the letter: "This is your foot, this is your hand, do they look good?"

Little Eleven stretched out his little paw to grab it, but Lin Yiyi would not give it to him. How could she give him the footprints and handprints that she had worked so hard to draw? Otherwise, he would destroy them and she would not know if she could draw them again. Children tear up the paper as soon as they get it, which is very destructive.

Little Eleven thought his mother was playing with him, so he happily helped his mother stand up and continued to catch.

When it was almost ten o'clock, Lin Yiyi carried Xiao Shiyi into the stroller and pushed him to the kitchen: "You sit here and play, Mommy is going to cook." Sijun and Xiaowu would be back soon.

Although the Lin family has a sister-in-law, Lin Zhen, Sijun still likes to walk half an hour to his sister's house for dinner. Lin Wudi is in kindergarten, so he also eats at his sister's house.

Lin Dajun went to the county town to study. He came back every week, riding the bicycle his sister gave him. He was willing to go back and forth every day. Before getting married, Lin Dajun was considered a "golden turtle son-in-law". After getting married, he had a bicycle and became even more handsome. There were girls in the school who were interested in Lin Dajun. Although he was from the countryside, he dressed neatly and rode a bicycle to school, so everyone thought that his family must be well-off. However, before Lin Dajun got married, no girl could successfully pursue him. After getting married, it became even more impossible.

Lin Dajun listened to his sister very much, and among the four brothers, he listened to his sister the most. When he saw a female comrade fall in front of him, he would not even frown or support her. He had learned a lesson from the incident with Aunt Guilan's niece. He was scared to death by the girl whose name he could not remember. Besides, he was also afraid that the girl would cheat on him, and he would have to pay for it. In addition to being generous to his sister, Lin Dajun was also stingy with himself and his wife. He was afraid that he would starve to death if he ran out of money. However, he was a little stingy, but when it came to food, he would not treat himself badly. What if he starved to death without food?
