"I'm glad you're okay." Zhong Yuxiu smiled and squatted down, reaching out to rub her sons' heads. "Hey boys, did you eat enough today?"
Liji looked up at his mother, snorted and lowered his head, indicating that he was angry.
Li Ming was so angry that he lay down on the quilt, looking like he couldn't be appeased.
As soon as Li Zhen saw his mother, he pounced over and called out happily, "Mommy, Mommy."
"Hey, my dear babies." Holding up her youngest son, Yuxiu smiled with satisfaction, then looked at her other two sons; they stared blankly at her and the babies in her arms, frowned, and finally decided not to be angry. What's the point of being angry? If she was angry, she couldn't let her mother hold her.
"Mom."
"Mom."
Yuxiu rushed over one after another, taking each of them in her arms, squinting her eyes in happiness. Sure enough, even the youngest children knew how to compare. Look, with the youngest son taking the lead, the eldest son and the second son forgot their anger.
"You are all mommy's good kids." A kiss on the forehead makes the kids happy and smile. No matter if they are punished by mommy, ignored by mommy, or hungry, it doesn't matter. Mommy is the most important.
Yan Guofeng was very envious, "They are not so affectionate with me."
Zhong Yuxiu raised her head and smiled, patting the cubs' butts. "Li Ji, Li Ming, Li Zhen, Great Grandpa is jealous. Can you go give him a hug?"
"Hold me!" Li Zhen jumped up, hugged her neck, and repeated her words with a smile.
"Hold great-grandfather..." After saying that, she was stunned, then changed the subject, "Lizhen, go hold grandpa."
Grandfather.......
Lizhen hugged her mother's neck tightly, turned her head to look at their great-grandfather, and quickly shook her head, "No."
"Oh, you little thing can still talk." Yan Guofeng was really envious. He wasn't sad when his great-grandchildren didn't come to comfort him. Great-grandchildren, they were his dearest ones, so what could he do? He could spoil them, and what could he do with a beating?
"No, no, no."
Three consecutive no's, the three adults all laughed. Although the little ones are small, they are smart. They know how to refuse their mother's request. They want their mother to hold them and don't want to follow their great-grandfather.
Liji and Liming followed suit, shaking their heads and repeating, "No, no."
"I know you don't." Zhong Yuxiu curled her index finger and gently scratched the three babies' noses. She said with a fierce face, "Your great-grandfather loved you in vain."
Yan Guofeng waved his hand, "They are still young, what can they know? They will understand when they grow up. For now, they can do what they want, so let them do it."
The old man spoiled the children even more than she did. Fortunately, there was still a strict father at home. However, she felt that if this strict father didn't be strict, he might not be able to control the three boys in the future. Now the three boys sometimes ignored her. When they were young, it could be said that they didn't understand and didn't know fear. If they continued to be like this when they grew up, she might have to bear it.
After playing with the children for a while, Zhong Yuxiu felt extremely hungry, so she let go of her sons and went to the kitchen with Yan Rushan to eat.
The three boys watched them leave and pouted. When the old man thought they were going to cry and was about to comfort them, the three boys turned around and went to play by themselves. The old man felt relieved, for he was afraid that his great-grandchildren would cry endlessly and it would be bad if he couldn't comfort them.
"Comrade Yan, Comrade Zhong, you are here. The food is being warmed in the steamer in the big pot inside. You can bring it out and eat it." Gu Lingguo looked up and saw the two of them, and spoke to them with a smile.
Yan Rushan nodded, took Yuxiu to the stove, and opened the lid of the steamer with one hand; then he let go of her hand and took out the warm breakfast in the steamer. The conditions were limited after going out, so he tried to keep the fine-grain steamed buns, soy milk, noodles and the like as much as possible under the limited conditions.
As for the others, it is not easy to maintain a balanced nutrition, so we cannot ask for too much.
"Dasha, thank you for your hard work." When you go out, you must not only eat well, but also eat nutritiously; this skill is not easy, and it also shows that Feng Zheng has put in a lot of effort.
Feng Zheng looked up and smiled foolishly, scratched his head, and then lowered his head to pick vegetables.
Zhong Yuxiu smiled helplessly. Yan Rushan took out the breakfast from the steamer and put it on a bamboo tray. He held the tray with one hand and held Rouyi's hand again with the other hand, then lowered his head and smiled at her.
"Let's go to the main room to eat."
"Okay." She smiled at him, then turned her gaze to the others. "Comrade Gu, Comrade Fang, after dinner, let's go to the mountains to pick some mountain products. Get the backpacks, shoulder poles, and baskets ready."
I went up the mountain in a hurry yesterday and didn’t bring any backpacks or baskets. Since I knew there were a lot of goods on the mountain, backpacks and baskets were essential.
Gu Lingguo nodded and agreed, "We don't have a backpack or basket at home, so we have to borrow some from others. I'll go borrow some later."
"Well, send some of yesterday's mountain products to the Xiong family as a thank you gift." Zhong Yuxiu reminded him, and Gu Lingguo nodded again. The couple walked out of the kitchen together and went to the main hall at the entrance to eat.
You can see the main gate from the main hall as you enter the courtyard. It is closed now. If it were open, you would be able to see what is happening outside.
They sat down in the main hall, with the food on the table. Yan Rushan distributed the bowls and chopsticks and served her porridge first. The couple smiled at each other, their eyes full of affection, and no matter who saw them, they would say that they had a good relationship.
After a comfortable breakfast, Yan Rushan stood up with the leftovers in his hand. "Wife, I'll take the dishes to the kitchen first. I'll also call Comrades Gu Lingguo and Fang Guozhong to come with us. Let's go up the mountain together. I wasn't there when you went yesterday, so today is a good time to go see what good things there are that you've been thinking about."
After saying that, he left, leaving Zhong Yuxiu staring at the ground in a daze for a while, not understanding why he was so jealous.
Zhong Yuxiu did not stay in the main hall for long, but returned to the third courtyard to talk to the old man.
"grandfather."
"Have you finished eating?" Yan Guofeng asked.
Zhong Yuxiu nodded. "I'm done eating. I'll go up the mountain with Rushan and the others to pick up local produce later. We won't be back until noon. If you can't take care of it here, ask Comrade Wang and the others to look after it."
"I know. They're busy too. They'll come over when they're done." Yan Guofeng nodded in agreement. "There are only some wild vegetables and mushrooms in the mountains. Don't go there if you don't have to. There are always wild animals in the mountains. It's okay on the outskirts. You and Rushan are not the type to stay out of the way. Be careful when you go there."
The old man knew very well what kind of personality his eldest grandson had; having raised him since he was a child, how could he not know Yan Rushan's temperament?
One person is worrying enough in itself, and now with the addition of his eldest grandson's wife, whose temperament is similar to his, the old man feels like he's going to go bald. Neither of them is honest and obedient. Although they act with discretion, they are too opinionated and won't change their minds easily once they've made up their minds. This is really a headache.
Other aspects were fine, but regarding going into the mountains, he could only mutter a few words and there was no way to stop them.
