He also went to the supply and marketing cooperative several times to buy the necessary quilts, washbasins and other things. He was exhausted at the end of the day.
Yang Hang missed A Yao and the babies a little.
"Mom, when will Grandpa Nian and Dad come back? I miss them." Dabao asked Chu Yao in a baby voice.
Chu Yao touched Dabao's head and said, "Grandpa Nian will be separated from us for a while. Dad will probably be back in a few days. What's wrong? Dabao, do you miss Grandpa Nian and Dad instead of Mom?"
"No, I miss my mom too." Dabao said while keeping everyone fair.
"Okay, okay, Mommy knows what Dabao means. Okay, Dabao, play with your brothers for a while. We'll have lunch soon, okay?"
"Okay, then I'll go play with my brothers."
"Go ahead."
Chu Yao actually felt a little regretful. Because of Yang Hang's work, the babies had limited places to play on a daily basis. Apart from Yang Hang's workplace, there was only Chen Dayou's home.
When they returned home during the Mid-Autumn Festival, they were taken by Lele and Fufu to play in the village and had a lot of fun. The space here is indeed a bit limited, but fortunately the babies are very sensible and can have fun even if they are alone at home.
Yang Hang and Chu Yao are both good-looking, and their sons all look like their best qualities, so each has their own merits. However, the personalities of the three babies are different.
Dabao's personality and appearance are like Yang Hang's. He is very calm and has the demeanor of an older brother. Erbao is a bit more naughty, but he is a chatterbox who chatters all the time. Chu Yao doesn't know who Erbao inherited this personality from. She and Yang Hang are both quiet.
As for Sanbao, because he was too quiet, Chu Yao and Yang Hang thought that Sanbao had autism. However, they were proven wrong later. Sanbao was not very talkative. Except in front of his family, he would not even let others hold him in front of other people.
But Sanbao is the best at studying and solving puzzles. Even the adults are sometimes shocked by him.
Chu Yao looked at the three babies playing in the yard and felt a sense of happiness.
Yang Hang has been back for more than a month.
Today is Laba Festival. Chu Yao started to cook Laba porridge early in the morning. She prepared a lot of ingredients, including red dates, mung beans, red beans, adzuki beans, peas, mixed with millet, rice, japonica rice, glutinous rice, etc., as well as rock sugar. However, the rock sugar at this time was not as transparent as the later ones. It was a little yellow and not crystal clear.
However, Chu Yao was very satisfied with all this. It was just that Uncle Nian would not be able to drink the Laba porridge this year, and she didn't know whether he had prepared it himself.
The babies smelled a very fragrant smell when they were half asleep and half awake, and they knew that their mother had made something delicious again.
"Yaoyao, are you going to put this porridge on the door?" (It's like feeding porridge to the door gods, just put it on their mouths.)
"Yeah, go ahead and watch the babies brush their teeth and wash their faces, then start eating."
"Okay."
When Yang Hang turned around, he gave Chu Yao a big kiss on the face, then turned around and went out to work.
Chu Yao and her friends were living a peaceful life, but Yao Jinnian was spending Laba Festival here alone, feeling quite lonely.
But his loneliness only lasted for a while, and his good friend came to find him.
"Old Yao, I haven't seen you for a few years. You look better than before." Qin Ji teased.
"Hey, Lao Qin, how come you have time to come to my place today? I thought you were very busy and was planning to visit you again during the Chinese New Year."
"Aren't you retired now? I thought you were at home today, Old Yao, so I wanted to come over and try my luck. I didn't expect that I was so lucky." Qin Ji said with a smile and put the lunch box in his hand on the table in the living room.
"Retirement? What's going on, Lao Qin? You're a few years younger than me, so why are you retiring?"
"It's a long story, and it's all because of those grandsons. Well, I won't say anymore. They're just adding bad luck to this holiday season."
"Okay, even if you don't tell me, I've guessed a little bit." Yao Jinnian didn't ask the whole story. He felt that some things were better not to be discussed.
"This is the Laba porridge cooked by my old lady. Come and try her cooking skills to see if she has improved over the years."
Even though Yao Jinnian had experienced so many things, he was still a little scared when he heard what Lao Qin said.
The truth is that Lao Qin's wife's cooking skills are really not that good, and she likes to mess around with these things. Before this incident happened, some of his friends suffered greatly from it.
"Hahaha, Lao Yao, after all these years, you're still quite overwhelmed by my wife's cooking. Okay, no more jokes, this is made by my daughter-in-law, don't be afraid, just eat it while it's hot."
Yao Jinnian looked at his friend and knew that he was making fun of him again.
Old Qin's temperament really hasn't changed at all.
As the saying goes, after Laba Festival it is the New Year.
The town's supply and marketing cooperative had twice as many people as usual. Some people took advantage of this season to bring their own goods to trade, while others packed large and small bags of various New Year's goods home.
Although everyone is generally poor at this time, it is the New Year, and many people are still willing to buy things. After all, they have worked hard for a whole year, and the New Year can make people relax a little and have a few days of rest.
It’s a pity that Yang Hang’s annual leave this year has been used up, and their unit is extremely busy, so they can only celebrate the New Year in the staff quarters.
On New Year's Eve, Yang Hang still had to be on duty, and Chu Yao prepared the food for the family and the things for staying up all night by herself. The babies ate the snacks prepared by their mother and played with their own toys on the kang table in the room.
