Qi Mengmeng really had enough money to rent this house. Seeing that Gu Guizhi had no objection, she thought about going to Beijing first to see the situation. If she bought a house in Beijing, she would rent this one out.
No one can say for sure whether Gu Guizhi will return to the Hebei Provincial Military Region after graduation after going to military school.
Therefore, the specific arrangements for this house will have to wait until later.
Gu Guizhi then talked about the situation in the capital. The current social situation is much better than before. Many people have returned their houses, and some people have chosen to sell their houses.
Qi Mengmeng is going to study at Beijing University, so it would definitely be more convenient to buy a house nearby. We’ll talk about the specific details after Qi Mengmeng goes to Beijing.
The two chatted for a while, and there was a loud noise outside. Gu Guizhi glanced at his watch, "It's twelve o'clock."
There was a crackling sound of firecrackers outside, and the noise was louder than in the past few years.
"The days to come will definitely get better and better." Gu Guizhi said in a low voice, looking at the light in the sky.
Indeed, China will soon usher in a new era of rapid development.
Qi Mengmeng nodded. In the next few years, as long as she could seize the opportunity, she would be able to live a good life.
At this time, Kang Kang's crying voice came from the room. He was awakened by the sound of firecrackers, and he didn't feel Qi Mengmeng around, so he started crying immediately.
Qi Mengmeng hurried back to the room to see the children and feed Kang Kang. An An also woke up.
Both children drank milk and had their diapers changed before going back to sleep.
Gu Guizhi took the changed diaper outside, hugged Qi Mengmeng and lay down on the bed to sleep.
The Spring Festival of 1978 arrived just like that.
Qi Mengmeng and Gu Guizhi took care of the two children. Although they were a little hesitant at the beginning, within just one day, the two of them cooperated well and took care of the two children.
The weather was too cold, so Qi Mengmeng didn't dare take the two children out of the house, so she just stayed at home to play with them.
There was no work on the first day of the new year. Yu Xiaoman and Hunzi came with their children. Qi Mengmeng hurried to get some snacks for Xiaodouzi. There were peanuts and melon seeds on the table. Xiaodouzi took a look.
Qi Mengmeng said to Yu Xiaoman, "Xiaoman, Douzi wants to eat peanuts. Break them into small pieces for her and let her chew them slowly."
Qi Mengmeng said this because Xiaodouzi is usually well-behaved and obedient. If it were a naughty child, Qi Mengmeng would not dare to let him eat.
If a child gets choked by peanuts and is not spit out in time, he or she may be choked to death.
Yu Xiaoman also bought peanuts and melon seeds for the Chinese New Year this year. She picked up a peanut, peeled one and handed it to Xiaodouzi.
Xiaodouzi immediately put it in his mouth, and Qi Mengmeng held Xiaodouzi's mouth, fearing that it would get stuck.
"Xiao Man, Xiao Douzi is still young. If you let him eat peanuts, you must break them apart. The peanuts are too big and if they get stuck in his throat, he might get choked."
Qi Mengmeng reminded Yu Xiaoman and explained the Heimlich maneuver again.
Originally, Yu Xiaoman thought it should be okay for Xiaodouzi to eat a lot of peanuts and melon seeds, but Qi Mengmeng took it so seriously that she followed suit.
"Xiaodouzi is still young. You can't tease him when he's eating. Otherwise, when he laughs, these things might slide down his throat."
Qi Mengmeng has actually seen a child being choked by a candy bar.
Once, Qi Mengmeng went to the bank to deposit money and saw with her own eyes a child swallowing a candy bar because of laughing. In just one minute, the child's face turned purple.
Fortunately, the bank's lobby manager reacted quickly. He quickly picked up the child, put his hands on the child's belly button, and quickly hit the child's stomach until the child spit out the candy.
Everything happened so fast that everyone in the bank was stunned.
However, since then, Qi Mengmeng has remembered the Heimlich maneuver. Now when Xiaodouzi was eating peanuts, Qi Mengmeng remembered it and told it again to Yu Xiaoman.
Yu Xiaoman listened carefully and even pulled Xiaodouzi to his side to demonstrate.
She is pregnant now, and there will be two children in the family in the future, so she has to pay close attention to all these things.
When Xiaodouzi saw Yu Xiaoman and Qi Mengmeng talking, he grabbed a few peanuts and stuffed them into his mouth like a little squirrel.
Yu Xiaoman watched him out of the corner of his eye, his face changed, and he wanted to pull him.
Qi Mengmeng decisively grabbed Yu Xiaoman's hand and said softly to Xiaodouzi, "Xiaodouzi, chew slowly. There are still a lot of peanuts here. Ask your mother to take them home."
Xiao Douzi subconsciously wanted to swallow the peanuts in his mouth, but Qi Mengmeng's comfort made him slow down.
Yu Xiaoman's forehead was covered with cold sweat and her stomach was aching. However, her hands were held by Qi Mengmeng, so she did not dare to shout. She only managed a smile and her voice was trembling as she spoke: "Little Bean, if you can't chew it, spit it out."
Xiao Douzi was reluctant to spit them out, so he tried hard to swallow the peanuts in his mouth. Yu Xiaoman didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he stuck out his tongue to indicate that he had finished eating.
Qi Mengmeng handed the malted milk she had just prepared to Xiaodouzi.
"Little Bean, drink some malted milk. Peanuts are hard, so you can't eat so many at once. If you want to eat, let mommy watch you and eat them one by one."
She was also sweating coldly just now, really worried that something might happen to Xiaodouzi.
Xiao Douzi nodded obediently and smiled at Qi Mengmeng: "Peanuts are delicious."
"Okay, I'll pack it up for you and take it away later."
After Qi Mengmeng finished speaking, she took out a bag, filled it with peanuts and handed it to Yu Xiaoman.
Yu Xiaoman took the bag with a grim look on his face: "Thank you Mengmeng, we have been here for a while, so we will go back first."
Qi Mengmeng thought Yu Xiaoman was frightened and patted her hands: "Little Bean, be obedient. Talk to him carefully, he will understand."
Yu Xiaoman forced a smile, called out to the gangster, and said he wanted to go home.
Hunzi was talking to Gu Guizhi, and when he heard Yu Xiaoman say she was leaving and saw that she looked unhappy, he asked worriedly, "What happened?"
He wanted to ask if he was feeling unwell, but Yu Xiaoman squeezed his hand so hard that he didn't ask any more questions. He rode his bike away with Yu Xiaoman and Xiaodouzi.
Just as they walked out of Qi Mengmeng's house, Yu Xiaoman patted Hunzi's shoulder from behind and said, "Hunzi, go to the hospital. I feel a little uncomfortable."
The bastard hurriedly braked and turned back to look at Yu Xiaoman: "Xiaoman, what's wrong with you?"
"My stomach hurts a little. Take me to the hospital." Yu Xiaoman groaned and seemed unable to hold on any longer.
"Hold me tight." The gangster got on his bicycle and quickly rode towards the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital, Hunzi helped Yu Xiaoman down and let Xiaodouzi follow him, and they walked into the hospital together.
"Doctor, doctor." The gangster started shouting as soon as he entered the hospital. Yu Xiaoman was sweating. He turned his head to look at Xiaodouzi and reached out to pull Xiaodouzi.
Xiao Douzi was so scared that tears were falling. He quickly ran over and grabbed Yu Xiaoman's hand.
