When Zhao Lanxiang was five months pregnant, the couple begged the grandmother to name her. The old man thought about it for a few days, and chose several names for them to choose.
Among these names, Zhao Lanxiang fell in love with the names "Jiashu" and "Jiayue" at a glance. Jiashu comes from "Nine Chapters: Orange Ode", which means beautiful trees. If it was a boy, she hoped that he would be a determined and brave person like his father. It just so happened that the "pine and cypress" in He Songbai's name is also a tree.
Jiayue comes from "Jiuhuai·weijun", Jiayue is beautiful, Jiayue means a good day. It's the same feeling to be lined up with Jiashu. Zhao Lanxiang felt that the old grandmother had special intentions in taking out these names.
Later, she gave birth to twins, and both names were used, which is not a surprise. Jiayue and Jiashu also became the names of Tangtang and Dahai.
One day after giving birth, the couple discussed the name, and Zhao Lanxiang also complained about He Songbai.
"It's a shame that you were still the champion of the year, and it's a waste of time to name your child. We almost don't have a nickname in the sea."
Back then, He Songbai swore to pat his chest and said that the child's name was wrapped around him.
But no one expected her to give birth to a son in addition to a girl.
Zhao Lanxiang said happily: "Fortunately, the name did not let you take it, otherwise the sea would have blamed us for the rest of his life."
He Songbai disagreed, "Is the name Dahai so shabby? If it wasn't for his health later on, I would have given him the nickname 'Gou Leftover'. A cheap name is easy to support, don't you know?"
Zhao Lanxiang pinched his itchy flesh angrily, "How dare you talk back?"
He Songbai was pinched by the object and his whole body became soft, and he lost his temper at all. His breathing began to become rapid, whirring, and his hot big palm couldn't help wrapping the messy Bai Nen hand.
He Songbai coughed lightly, then changed the subject and said, "My name was chosen by Grandpa specially from the master, and it has been opened."
When he was talking to her, he couldn't help thinking of the scroll of calligraphy that Grandma kept. Because it is not an antique or a masterpiece by a famous family, but it was handwritten by Grandpa himself, and it is not worth much, so he escaped the disaster. After many years, the white rice paper has turned yellow, but it has been hanging on the wall of their house.
He will always remember the strong words written on the calligraphy, "Falling down to the highest point, you will know the pine and cypress green."
This calligraphy has always inspired him, and he has always maintained a good attitude, not complaining or getting discouraged.
Zhao Lanxiang heard the man recite the poem involuntarily in the quilt. The male voice was vague and low, like a subwoofer, and it made her heart feel hot and numb.
After calming down for a while, she approached him and said with a smile, "Do you know how I named 'Songlan' in the first place?"
She recited in a slow and slow manner: "Take orchid for grass, and pine for this. Lan Qiuxiang is far away, and the pine cold does not change its appearance."
After hearing this, He Songbai's heart became hot, and he was very moved. He hugged his wife tightly in his arms and smiled lowly.
"You see we are a couple even in the poem."
…
The name entrusts the hope of parents to their children. He Songbai and Zhao Lanxiang both hope that Tangtang and Dahai will live up to their name, beautiful and gratifying.
Tangtang and Dahai did not disappoint either. They turned over, learned to speak, and walked faster than others.
Especially the sea, who looks quiet and quiet. Sometimes Zhao Lanxiang looks at the child who is too quiet, and worries about whether the suffocation of the birth canal has affected his son's intelligence. However, the old grandmother who accompanied the two babies day and night said with certainty, "The sea is fine."
She smiled and said, "He's fine!"
She hugged Hai Hai and stroked the soft hair on top of his head with her warm, rough palms, "As long as he doesn't cry, I'll hold him for a while longer."
"Give him some milk too."
Both children were weaned and cried uncontrollably. During this time, Zhao Lanxiang basically didn't dare to hold the baby. The milk doll got on her body, and they kept digging into her arms like a piglet. She would breastfeed softly and feed her, and she would grow up The little buns of teeth gnawed.
After Zhao Lanxiang heard the old grandmother's words, she didn't think Dahai could understand anything, but she just let it go.
Every child has a different personality, he is just a little quieter.
But the sea began to show intellectual distinction from a very early age.
Granny Li is very calm, because in her consciousness, children's intelligence develops most rapidly when they are young. Although the stupid grandson of that year was a little rude, but his endorsement of learning arithmetic was not ambiguous at all.
After Da Hai spent a few days piecing together the 500 pieces of the puzzle that Grandma Li bought, he finally received the attention of Zhao Lanxiang and He Songbai.
Zhao Lanxiang lifted the sea from the ground in surprise and kissed him several times: "Our sea is so smart."
After she finished speaking, Auntie Li took her out by herself and said seriously, "I can't praise him for being smart in the future."
Zhao Lanxiang kept it in his mind, and later He Dahai made a model of the plane by himself using the parts bought by his father, recited the textbooks smoothly, and was able to remember the bus routes near his home clearly when he went out. , did not show abnormality.
As a mother, Zhao Lanxiang began to feel distressed for her daughter.
As Dahai's older sister, Tangtang has been crushed by her younger brother's IQ since kindergarten.
When she was in kindergarten, Tangtang was very depressed and often wondered why she couldn't get a double percentile in the test and why she couldn't finish the puzzle. She couldn't play the game that Dahai played halfway through, and Tangtang always thought she was so stupid.
For a long time, parents have been gentle and considerate not to ask their children's test scores, nor to regard it as a standard to measure their children.
He Songbai often takes his daughter to play. The newly opened playgrounds, zoos, botanical gardens in the city... As long as he is not busy on weekends and is at home, he will bring two small groups to play. The sea likes to hide in a corner and think quietly. Tang likes lively games.
He Songbai often took her to play football, bought her a smaller version of the jersey, and ran around the field to play football.
At this time, Zhao Lanxiang will also bring the sea out and let him score points, while Zhao Lanxiang cheers her daughter on the side. Uncle Xiaohuzi also often took Tangtang to play table tennis together. He Tangtang, who played happily, soon forgot the hurt from his younger brother.
All the way through the primary school without incident.
Tang Tang's character is becoming more and more lively, and she has the domineering style of a big sister. But the sea likes cleanliness, and loves to be alone in a corner. One often represents the school to participate in table tennis and badminton competitions, and the other takes the first place in the grade in the door-to-door test.
When Tangtang was in the sixth grade of elementary school, she was only half a head shorter than Zhao Lanxiang. She had a round and cute face with apple muscles. She loved to move and eat, and was fed by her mother's every meal. Dahai is a little more pitiful. The boy develops later. He hasn't had time to show the fine genes that his father has inherited from him, and he is a head shorter than his twin sister. Because of the height difference, people who saw them for the first time would never think they were twins.
Moreover, Hai Hai has white skin and looks delicate, and is often teased by her sister as a girl.
When it came time for military training in junior high school, Dahai, who was always happy and quiet, fainted by the sun during the military training, which terrified the parents of both families. Feng Lian took her daughter and son-in-law to the house, and said to them, "In the past, Xiaohuzi's body was not very good, and he didn't like to move."
"Later, Da Niu's grandfather took Xiao Huzi to the compound. In the future, Xiao Huzi has to go to his grandfather for training every weekend and summer vacation. After so many years, Xiao Huzi's physical fitness is much stronger than others."
After returning, He Songbai asked his wife to pick up his son's luggage, and planned to deliver him to Grandpa Zhao in a few days. He said to his son, "For the sake of your physical fitness, your father will send you to your great-grandfather's training in the future on weekends."
He Dahai pursed his lips when he heard it, the boy who had already smoked was lush like a small poplar, and wanted to be very face.
At this moment, the embarrassing incident during military training was brought up by his father again, and his face couldn't help but turn black.
Dahai said, "That's because the instructor previously ordered me to run fifteen laps."
He Songbai hehe said: "I can't stand it for fifteen laps, how dare you mention it?"
He began to look up his heroic deeds back then, "Your father ran for more than ten miles in one breath and didn't faint, and it would be deadly if he was on top of you?"
Tangtang jumped back after school at the moment, she happily put down her schoolbag and drank a few mouthfuls of the tonic cold cooked by her mother.
She said, "What are you afraid of in the sea? I'll go with you! You won't be afraid of this, right? The army sounds interesting. Don't you boys yearn for it?"
He Dahai was most afraid that He Tangtang would say that he was feminine, and he said to his sister indifferently, "Did I say I was afraid?"
"It's you, girls, don't ask for trouble and go to military training. After a few days of sun exposure, your face is tanned, and I'm afraid I won't be able to watch it for another month."
He Tangtang heard "wow" and rushed up, pressed his brother on the sofa, rubbed and bullied him for a while.
Zhao Lanxiang looked at the two brothers and sisters who were making a fuss, with a headache and dumbfounding.
On the weekend, Tangtang and Dahai went to Grandpa Zeng's house with their belongings on their backs.
Zhao Lanxiang's grandfather, Zhao Xiong, has been retired for many years, and he only repented when he got old, but the two sons have gradually become estranged from him.
It was not until one day that his second son became an outstanding talent model in the city and appeared on TV, and the newspaper published that his grandson-in-law He Songbai had allocated a huge sum of 100,000 yuan for the Hope Project, and Zhao Xiong came back to his senses.
Three hundred and sixty lines, every line out of the champion. Back then, the second son and the younger son disobeyed his wishes and engaged in the jobs they liked, and now they each have their own gains.
They play their own roles in their respective positions and are talents for building socialism.
Zhao Xiong began to intentionally mend the relationship between father and son, and his attitude towards Dahai and Tangtang can be described as very enthusiastic. As the saying goes, "parents are separated from each other", they are separated by two generations, Zhao Xiong and his wife are very good for the two little babies.
It was said that they were here for military training, but Tangtang and Dahai seemed to be here to enjoy themselves.
Zhao Xiong still called the children of the compound and formed a boy scout. A group of children of similar age grouped together, standing in a military posture every day, and ran in circles around the military compound.
But Rao is like this, and there is no ambiguity in what Zhao Xiong should pay close attention to. Tangtang and Dahai also experienced the torture that Xiaohuzi experienced when his nose was snot running and crying.
Hai Hai's body is getting stronger and stronger, and his complexion is still white but not as pale as before. A year later, it is not a problem for him to run ten or twenty laps in one breath. After finishing the first year of junior high school, Dahai and Tang Tang were a head taller than Tang Tang.
Standing tall and straight, like a young poplar. He inherited his mother's beautiful genes. He is tall and handsome, with a well-proportioned skeleton. He is also good at learning to play. In this age where knowledge is very important, he can be regarded as the object of worship by girls in school.
Tangtang helped him receive love letters and food, and she was so soft on receiving them. However, in addition to inheriting his mother's beauty, the sea did not inherit her initiative. Stepping on the girls' hearts, they skipped grades one after another, and soon jumped to the high school.
In high school, Tangtang also met the boy she had a crush on in the compound.
That day, the sea was instigated by a group of boys in uniforms to go to the court to play a showdown. Tangtang went to cheer them on. She deliberately wore a beautiful ball uniform and pulled a few hair boys who grew up together as cheerleaders.
For the first time in the crowd, she saw a boy who could wear a white ball suit so handsomely, and the heart of a girl was thumping.
The author has something to say: *
