Aunt He stood in front of the table, wearing a dark green cheongsam, looking at them with a smile.
Su Ruo always knew that Aunt He was elegant and must have been very beautiful when she was young.
But at that time, Aunt He was always wearing gray-blue clothes and sitting in a wheelchair.
Gray hair.
It is elegant, but it also gives people a feeling of the vicissitudes and cruelty of time.
But now, she stood up.
She was wearing a dark green cheongsam with dark patterns and had a slender figure...and what was even more amazing was that her hair was actually black!
Also the wrinkles on my face are not so obvious anymore!
At first glance, she looks much younger!
Su Ruo walked over and called out "Aunt He", feeling excited and happy.
Aunt He smiled and said, "Why, you can't recognize me?"
Su Ruo went forward and hugged her, saying, "Aunt He, your leg is healed... Why didn't you tell me before? Oh, was it Huanhuan? Was it Huanhuan who cured you? That girl is really amazing."
Aunt He smiled and said "Yes", and then said: "It has been treated for a while. At the beginning, I didn't know if it could be cured... Later, it got better, so I thought, I will give you a surprise when you come back."
"Is it very hard?"
Su Ruo said.
After all, he has been in a wheelchair for many years, and his tendons, veins and muscles have atrophied. Even if he is cured, it will not be easy to stand and walk. It will definitely require hard training.
Aunt He smiled and said, "It's OK. It's Aunt Zhang who has worked so hard. She has to give me massages three times a day, morning, noon and evening, even at her age."
Then he pushed her away and said, "Okay, stop talking so much, let me see Nan Nan."
In the past few years, Su Ruo has come back every year, and occasionally brings Guoguo with her, but Nan Nan is too young and has never come back once since going to Yunnan.
Aunt Zhang is still in the kitchen.
While Su Ruo was talking to Aunt He, Guo Guo said hello to his father and went to the kitchen to find Aunt Zhang.
Nannan just stood there quietly watching her mother and Aunt He talk.
Aunt He looked over, and Nan Nan followed her mother's instruction, walked to the front, and obediently called out "Mother-in-law".
She looks so cute and beautiful.
Even if it was just the slightest smile, it was already a big deal.
Aunt He looked surprised.
She reached out and touched her little head, asked her a few questions, and then said to Su Ruo: "This child, Ruoruo, looks really like you."
It's like they were carved from the same mold.
but......
Aunt He continued with a smile, "Ruoruo, how come this child looks more stable than you?"
This little thing is really stable and composed, which makes people feel calm just by looking at it.
Su Ruo laughed twice.
Adhering to the principle of never speaking ill of children in front of them so as not to affect their self-confidence, she endured it and didn't say anything. This child is just lazy and doesn't bother to talk when there is nothing to say. But when she speaks, she is like a fool and can make people angry to death... But she doesn't scold people. She is extremely serious every time, and people can only shut themselves up if they are angry... Even Su Ruo, who wants to educate her, often doesn't know where to start.
Of course, he’s no match for Guoguo.
......This made Su Ruo occasionally wonder whether this child's temperament was cultivated by Guoguo.
******
When the whole family comes back, we must go to visit the Han family.
However, perhaps it was because the long journey was too tiring, or perhaps the climate between Kunming and Qingcheng was too different, Nannan was not able to adapt well.
Moreover, she was so excited to see such heavy snow for the first time that she dragged her brother to play with it in the yard for several hours and made a snowman. As a result, she, who rarely got sick, had a fever the next morning after sleeping for a night. She lay in bed dizzy and couldn't get up. She was sick for several days and didn't feel better until the night of the 30th. So the family went to Han's house on the night of the 30th.
This was the second time that the family had celebrated the New Year together at the Han family, following the first time Su Ruo and Han Zecheng celebrated the New Year at the Han family in 1977 or 1978.
Compared to last time, the Han family has a lot more people and is much more lively.
Han Zehua and Wu Mei's eldest daughter, Han Hui, is already five years old. At the end of 1979, the couple gave birth to a son named Han Jun, who is now over two years old.
Han Qinqin is also married, and she knows her husband Su Ruo, who was the former instructor of the Department of Architecture, named Shao Mingsheng... Su Ruo really couldn't have imagined this when she first got the news.
No matter how I think about it, the two of them seem to have nothing in common.
After a few people arrived, Aunt Cao opened the door and welcomed them into the living room.
Wen Qiaoyi asked them to sit down, and after everyone exchanged greetings, the focus was on Nan Nan.
Wen Qiaoyi: "Nannan, are you still feeling uncomfortable? Do you want to go to the side room and sleep for a while?"
The tone was gentle and loving.
Nan Nan sat next to her mother. Because she had been sick for a few days, her face was pale and she looked very weak. She said in a soft voice, "No, thank you, grandma."
Wen Qiaoyi: "Winter here is much colder than in Yunnan. Are you not used to it?"
Nan Nan: "It's OK, I like it very much."
Wen Qiaoyi felt that this child was really adorable and couldn't help but ask a few more questions.
For example, what did you usually do when you were in Yunnan, what did you like to eat, did you go to kindergarten, etc.
Whatever she asked, Nan Nan answered briefly but seriously.
Well behaved and polite.
Wu Mei found it very curious and teased Nan Nan for a long time.
But Nan Nan actually doesn’t like people teasing her.
After asking too many questions, Su Ruo realized that her daughter was beginning to lose interest in talking.
She was afraid that she would do something weird again, so she interrupted with a smile, saying, "Xiaojun is already over two years old. Time flies. When we left, Huihui was only this old."
Wu Mei smiled and said, "Yes. But speaking of this, I really want to ask my sister-in-law for advice on how to take care of children. Guoguo is smart and sensible, and even Nannan is so well-behaved. It really makes me worry-free."
As he spoke, he glanced at his youngest son who was playing with building blocks on the floor, and laughed, "You don't know our second child. Huihui was fine at first, she just liked to cry a little, but now she has a bad temper and no patience at all. She cries when things don't go her way. She cries when she can't build blocks by herself, and she cries when you read a storybook to her but she doesn't like it. She even cries when the clothes you get her in the morning are not the color she wants... She can drive even a god crazy."
Su Ruo wanted to laugh.
She read in a book that crying has nothing to do with education and is probably hereditary...
But she won't say that...
She was about to say, "You haven't seen Guoguo and his friends being naughty? She didn't know how many times she had to apologize to others with her belongings because Guoguo hit them.
But before Su Ruo could say anything, Nan Nan spoke first.
She said, "Aunt, my mother said that personality and appearance are innate."
"So, don't say that your cousin is bad just because he or she cries a lot, because this has to do with mom and dad...it will get better when they grow up."
Her mother usually uses this to educate her. She tells her that children have different personalities, different looks, and different families, and she can't dislike them because of these things... She even drew a picture book for her.
Wu Mei:......
It is said that she really loved to cry when she was a child...
She smiled and said, "Nannan knows a lot."
Nan Nan nodded: "Well, it's okay, you will know if you read more books. Aunt, you should also read more books in the future."
The little expression is very serious.
Wu Mei:......
Except for Nan Nan's brother, father and mother, probably no one here knows that Nan Nan did it on purpose.
But Su Ruo knew that she said this on purpose because Wu Mei had been asking her questions and she was annoyed... After a few times, this aunt would definitely be like others and would no longer tease her casually, touch her hair or touch her face... She would always find a way to make others adjust the way they interact with her...
And never say “I don’t like you touching me, pulling my hair”… because she thinks it’s useless.
Su Ruo felt a headache.
I wonder if Wu Mei still thinks crying is a serious problem...
Several women are talking here.
On the other side, Han Hehuai, Han Zecheng, Han Zehua and Shao Mingsheng were also talking.
Guoguo was also sitting there.
Han Qinqin did not participate in either side. She just sat on the sofa on one side. After greeting everyone, she listened to everyone quietly.
Su Ruo chatted with everyone for a while, occasionally looking across at Han Qinqin, and then she found that Han Qinqin seemed to have changed a lot.
Although his face still looked a little stubborn, the expressions of "I don't bother to talk to you" and "I'm very impatient" were gone.
Let's look at Shao Mingsheng again...
Su Ruo had a very good impression of him before. He was funny and down-to-earth. He got along well with students and was popular with the leaders... but he was not annoying. In fact, he was actually quite down-to-earth and not slick. He even had good professional skills...
At this time, because of his presence, it seemed that the atmosphere between Han Hehuai, Han Zecheng and his two sons had become much gentler... This man is really a talent.
At this time, Su Ruo seemed to understand something.
In fact, these two people...seem to have nothing to do with each other, but they seem to be quite compatible.
With Han Qinqin's personality, probably only someone like Shao Mingsheng can coax her... It's not that there aren't people more capable than Shao Mingsheng, such as He Zongxi, but is He Zongxi willing to coax Han Qinqin? ......
