Yan Rushan hugged his wife tightly. Zhong Yuxiu felt it was too tight. She tried to move to find a comfortable position, but was pressed back into Yan Rushan's arms, with warm breath blowing against her ears.
"Did you take Gu Lingguo and the others with you?"
"Yeah." Yuxiu nodded slightly and said, "Why do you ask?" Gu Lingguo and Fang Guozhong now follow her wherever she goes.
He continued to breathe in her ear, his thin lips brushing her earlobe inadvertently, "I feel more at ease if they follow you. If they didn't go with you, I would be worried that you would be too happy in the mountains to leave. Once you enter the mountains, it's like going home."
The back mountain of the production brigade back then was like the daughter-in-law’s back garden; it was not too convenient to enter and exit, and with her abilities, it was not dangerous, and wild boars were like food for her.
Zhong Yuxiu turned around and looked at him, her handsome face smiling, gentle and soft; but the words she said made people want to beat him up, and she did just that, poking him with her crutch.
"What are you talking about? Are you talking about me? I'm looking for something to eat."
"Yes, yes, my wife went into the mountains to find food. Now that you are full and satisfied, shouldn't my wife let me have a good meal too?" Yan Rushan asked.
Zhong Yuxiu understood the obvious hint immediately and raised her foot to kick him, but he was restrained by his foresight, "Let go."
"No, wife, we haven't been close for so many days. Do you want to abandon your husband just because you have a son? It's not right to ignore your husband after having a son."
"Let go and go to sleep."
Yan Rushan chuckled, lowered his head and kissed her lips, and all sounds were drowned out between his lips and teeth.
1. A night of lovemaking.
Later, she slept so deeply that she didn't know whether the children were crying or not; Yan Rushan hugged his wife contentedly, and when his sons cried at night, he just thought he was listening to birds singing.
In nature, the singing of birds is often ignored, and the little ones are ignored by their fathers.
1. After a good night's sleep, she woke up the next day feeling sore all over. Zhong Yuxiu rubbed her waist and moved her body, which startled the man next to her.
"Wife, you're awake." Yan Rushan opened his eyes and saw his wife first. A smile spread across his handsome face. "Are you feeling unwell?"
She glanced at him, knowing full well that it wasn't her name, "What time is it now? We're still asleep."
"It's just past nine, it's still early."
After nine o'clock is still early? How can I say that?
Zhong Yuxiu wanted to spit at him, calling him shameless, "Get out of here, I want to sleep a little longer."
"Okay, listen to my wife. I'll get you some hot water to wash your face and brush your teeth. Take a nap and don't fall asleep. We haven't had breakfast yet. You should have breakfast before you go to sleep." After waking up, he was no longer sleepy and got up energetically to get dressed.
After getting dressed neatly, he turned around and twirled the corner of his wife's quilt, looking at her pretending to sleep. He leaned over and gave her a kiss at the corner of her eye, curling his thin lips slightly, then turned around and walked out of the room in a good mood.
As soon as I went out, I met the old man and others.
The weather was fine and not very hot this morning. A clean mattress was spread beside the flower bed in the third courtyard. The old man was sitting cross-legged on the mattress. The three children were not in good spirits. They sat aside playing with their fingers and feet. They were not as energetic as yesterday and looked dying.
"grandfather."
"Get up." Yan Guofeng glanced back at him, rubbing the heads of his great-grandsons one by one, and was very dissatisfied with his eldest grandson. "Look at what you came up with yesterday. Our little darlings are all listless."
Yan Rushan was unconcerned. "Who told them to waste food? They should be punished for wasting food. We can't let them get into the habit of playing with food, or they'll try to cause trouble in the future."
"We can't just not give them food all night. They ate like crazy this morning and must be starving. Children are young and growing, how can they be so hungry? Did I, your grandfather, starve you like this when you and Xiaohai were little?"
Faced with the old man's questioning, Yan Rushan couldn't help but reflect on himself, and then said confidently, "Yes, the children and I made mistakes many times. Not only did you punish us by not being able to eat, you also made us stand facing the wall and reflect on our mistakes." He was just short of locking us up in a small dark room.
The old man is a soldier and has military habits; when teaching his children, he often uses the methods he learned in the army.
Yan Guofeng was speechless. He had punished his two grandsons in the past for their own good. Although he felt sad, it was not as heartbreaking as seeing his great-grandson so heartbroken. No one knew that when he woke up early, he saw his great-grandsons crying and looking dying. Their eyes were red and swollen, which showed how hard they cried last night.
As for the two grandsons, each one is more mischievous than the other, especially Xiao Hai. What should I do if I don't punish them? Should I just let them do whatever they want?
That is not good for the grandsons, but harmful to them; facts have proved that the two grandsons were raised by him and have good character and ability.
He also knew that his eldest grandson, as a father, was disciplining his child for his own good, but he still felt bad; people say that the relationship between generations is closer, but he was already two generations away.
"Grandpa, they are in good health, able to eat and sleep. They just didn't eat for one night, so they're fine. Don't worry." The old man still frowned and ignored him for a long time. Yan Rushan chuckled, "If you are worried about your great-grandchildren, wait until your eldest granddaughter-in-law wakes up and ask her to check on your great-grandchildren."
Yan Guofeng then looked up at him and said, "Okay, go wash your face, brush your teeth and have breakfast."
Yan Rushan chuckled and walked away. He went to the kitchen, washed his face and brushed his teeth, then returned to the third courtyard with hot water and the toothbrush tools he had prepared. As he entered the courtyard, he said something to the old man and then went back into the house with the hot water.
"Wife, get up. I've brought you hot water and a toothbrush."
Zhong Yuxiu turned over and wrapped herself in the quilt, not wanting to get up; with her supernatural powers working, the aches and pains in her body were effectively relieved, but not all the symptoms disappeared.
"Wife." Yan Rushan put down the washbasin, hot water cup, and toothbrush, walked to the bed and sat down, hugging her and the quilt in his arms. "Are you feeling very uncomfortable?"
"How dare you say that." Zhong Yuxiu pushed the quilt aside, and Yan Rushan loosened his grip, allowing her to get out of bed smoothly. He stood up and fetched her a short-sleeved dress. "It's my fault. Change your clothes and wash up. Let's go to the kitchen to eat. Grandpa and the children have already eaten."
The man was considerate and thoughtful, so Zhong Yuxiu finally gave him a smile. "How are the children? Did they cry a lot last night?"
"Fortunately, she fell asleep after crying for a while. When I saw them just now, her eyes were a little red and swollen." Yan Rushan was helping her to tidy up here and there, and it was unclear whether he was helping or making things worse.
Zhong Yuxiu glanced at him with a frown on her face; she quickened the pace of washing her face and brushing her teeth, and then she pulled all her hair back into a big braid, and she looked much more refreshed.
"Let's go out and see the kids."
Yan Rushan followed behind with a basin of hot water, a cup, and a toothbrush, and they walked to the old man's side one after the other.
"Grandpa, I came to see the children."
"You're awake. The child is much better now and may take a nap later." Yan Guofeng has been taking care of children for a long time and is very familiar with their habits. Since the kids didn't sleep well yesterday, they will definitely make up for it today.
