"Oh, I want it--" Seeing that neither her parents noticed her, little Gu Yiyi slapped the small table in front of her with her little hands, trying to attract their attention.
Mom and Dad, look here, your little baby is greedy.
I have to say, this trick is indeed very useful.
Look, the parents looked over immediately. But the next second, they couldn't help but twitch their lips.
Jian Shu held his forehead with his left hand, waved his right hand, and said helplessly: "Hurry up and wipe your daughter's saliva, it's all over the place."
Look how greedy this kid is. If there wasn't a chair blocking it, he would have pounced on me immediately.
Gu Mingjing laughed and took out the handkerchief he carried with him to wipe his daughter's face. Unfortunately, the source of the fragrance was still there. Just as he wiped it clean, it came out again the next second.
Jianshu: “…”Are you so greedy?
She didn't believe it, so she went forward and pinched the baby's little mouth. Well, now the saliva couldn't flow out.
But the saliva could not flow out, and little Gu Yiyi was not going to give up. He immediately struggled, waving his hands in the air and pulling his head back, trying to escape from his mother's clutches.
Gu Mingjing, who was standing by, couldn't stand it any longer and carried his daughter out. "It's okay. Didn't the doctor tell us last time? She's teething now, so she likes to drool. Just wipe it clean."
Jianshu was just teasing her daughter, and it was impossible for her to sew her mouth shut like a stepmother. After listening to him, I just went along with it.
"The buns should be ready. Hold her away so she doesn't get burned by the steam." The stove was still too close. The child's skin was delicate, and if she got burned, it would be a serious matter.
Gu Mingjing stepped back as he was told. Jianshu opened the lid of the steamer, waited for the steam to dissipate, picked up a bun with chopsticks and took a look at it. After making sure it was cooked, he took the steamer down.
Leave one plate for tonight's meal and transfer the rest to the space while still hot.
Jian Shu picked out a beef-filled bun, broke it in half, and handed the larger one to Gu Mingjing. "Try it and see if it still tastes the same. See if my cooking skills have deteriorated."
He then looked at his daughter who was staring at him eagerly, picked out a pig-shaped bun and placed it in front of her, and told Gu Mingjing not to let her touch it for the time being and to give it to her after it cooled down a bit.
Gu Mingjing held the child tightly in his left hand, took the bun with his right hand, took a bite, and nodded, "Hmm, it still tastes the same as before. The filling is just right, not too salty or bland, and the broth is rich and flavorful!"
"That's good. I was worried that my skills would deteriorate after not making steamed buns for a while." Jian Shu also took a bite of the bun, chewed it slowly and felt it. After confirming that he was not deliberately flattering her, he nodded with satisfaction.
Very good, she is indeed a genius!
"Oh!" Little Gu Yiyi is unhappy and is about to make a fuss!
Jian Shu got a headache seeing her like this, and hurriedly sent them away, "Alright, alright, hurry up and carry her to the front to feed her steamed buns. If she stays here any longer, she'll start crying again. I'll stir-fry some vegetables and make some soup, and then we can have dinner."
Gu Mingjing also knew that it was important to appease the little ancestor.
After all, although a child can't do everything, she can make you unable to do anything!
After finishing the meal, Jianshu threw some sweet potatoes and corn into the stove, and walked to the front with today's dinner.
…
Soon it was the day when little Gu Yiyi turned one year old, and Jianshu and Gu Mingjing started preparing early in the morning.
We agreed in advance that there would be no guests at home today, so there was no need to prepare a large table of food.
Anyway, the birthday boy can’t eat what we prepared today.
So the two of them decided to take a different approach and cooked a large table of food that little Gu Yiyi could eat now.
Although most of the food she could eat was soft, easy-to-eat and easy-to-digest things such as porridge, rice porridge, fruit puree, crushed noodles, etc., Jianshu did not perfunctorily eat them just because they were monotonous.
After all, even rice porridge can be made into something different.
In addition, Jianshu also made a small cake for the child. Although the child can't eat it yet, she still wants her to have it. This year, next year, the year after next... one year old, two years old, three years old... every year and every year must be planned.
So at lunch time, little Gu Yiyi had a table full of delicious food and a particularly beautiful little cake.
They all looked simple, but the sheer quantity and variety of them made them a waste of time. The two of them got up early in the morning and worked until noon before they were finally finished.
But before the meal, there is another highlight - the "Zhuazhou" ceremony.
Jianshu prepared a set, and together with the supplies sent by his grandparents, they were piled up in the living room and there was no room on the table.
Jianshu simply moved the rattan mat to the living room and spread a large red cloth on it. Various books, pens, abacus, seals, small wooden swords... were piled up in a pile.
There is also a golden ingot and a gold bar. Originally, Jianshu planned to use the Great Unity sign, but was worried that the children might tear it up without knowing how to control themselves, so they changed it to gold.
After the things were arranged, the newly dressed little girl Gu Yiyi was placed on the red cloth. Jianshu and Gu Mingjing deliberately walked to the opposite side of her, and the one who was to be given the gift of the first month of the lunar calendar was right between the three of them.
Jian Shu clapped his hands to attract her attention, then smiled and said, "Yi Yi, look over here, which of these things on the ground do you like?"
While speaking, he pointed to things on the ground and gave guidance.
Little Gu Yiyi looked at his parents in confusion, then looked at the various objects on the ground. He blinked his little eyes, sat there motionless, and continued to play with his little hands.
I don’t understand, I don’t understand at all.
Without prior training, things can go wrong when the time comes. Fortunately, Jianshu and Gu Mingjing didn't care what the children finally caught. The main reason they held the "Zhuazhou" ceremony was to achieve perfection and leave no regrets.
