"The stars in the sky don't speak
The doll on the ground misses its mother
The eyes of the sky are blinking
Qian Shulan hummed a song while sewing clothes for the baby. The baby sat in the stroller and clapped the beats to the rhythm of her singing. Although the clapping was a little messy, it did not stop the little girl from expressing her excitement.
Because the baby was teething and drooling from time to time, Qian Shulan picked up the bib hanging under the baby and wiped her mouth.
The cared-for little one would grin at her, revealing her two little teeth that had just emerged. Qian Shulan tapped her little nose, and her old face smiled again.
The cloth in her hand was bought by Zhengkang from the town's supply and marketing cooperative. It was pink with small floral patterns, perfect for children.
Although Li Chunhua knows how to make clothes, Qian Shulan still wants to do it herself.
In the past, her grandmother made clothes for her, and she also wanted to make clothes for her grandmother.
But her craftsmanship is not as good as her grandmother's. Not only can she not embroider difficult things, but she can also sew very poorly even simple things like thread. Fortunately, as long as she works slowly, she can still do a decent job. The clothes I made for her before took her almost a month.
"Grandma, I'm back!" a loud male voice came.
Qian Shulan looked up and saw Zhengguo, dressed in blue, striding in from outside the door.
He had a smile on his face and was holding a bag in his hands.
Qian Shulan hurriedly called him, "Hurry up and sit down and take a rest! How many days will you take this time?"
Zhengguo rubbed his head, straightened his clothes, and showed off conceitedly, "Grandma, do you think my clothes look good?"
Qian Shulan looked at it carefully. Although the clothes were tacky, the handsome guy looked good in anything and he made the blue look like a famous brand.
And the smile on his face was absolutely sincere. Qian Shulan nodded and praised, "It looks good!"
Zhengguo chuckled, bent down and dumped the bag he brought onto the ground, revealing a pile of bright yellow stuff! "Nana, this is a welfare benefit from our factory. I brought it back specially for you to try. You must have never eaten it before, this is called pomelo!"
Not to mention that Qian Shulan has never eaten this thing since she came here!
She put the sewing basket on her knees on the table, picked up one at random, put it on her knees and pinched it. Hmm, the skin of this pomelo is quite thin.
"Why are there so many?" She glanced at the ground and saw about six or seven.
"I'm not bringing it here for you to choose from before you take it home."
Qian Shulan was quite satisfied. This boy was so filial that it was worth her loving him so much. She picked up two from the ground and said, "Pack the rest!"
Zhengguo sighed!
Qian Shulan was very satisfied as she saw him grow stronger. Suddenly she thought, "Did you just come back for dinner?"
"I ate as soon as I arrived in the county! There's no way I'd starve myself!"
Qian Shulan took a kitchen knife, cut a pomelo, and then began to peel it.
"It tastes good!" This pomelo tastes really good and sweet.
Qian Shulan broke off a little and gave it to the little guy to eat.
The little baby is greedy for everything now, her throat is thick, and she can even eat things like pancakes, and all kinds of fruits are her favorites.
Qian Shulan bought all the fruit from No. 153. She had more gold coins than she could use up, and now that there was no famine, she didn't need to risk exchanging them for food.
So she bought all kinds of delicious food to reward herself and her baby.
Of course, she would also share some less conspicuous fruits with others, such as grapes, persimmons, apples, cherries, etc. that are only produced here.
She almost never shared tropical fruits with them.
Zhengguo washed his hands at the well, then ran over to Qian Shulan and said, "Nanny, let me feed you!"
Qian Shulan nodded and handed him the pomelo in her hand.
The little girl is not shy at all. Even though she hasn't seen Zhengguo for several months, she doesn't cry or make a fuss.
Qian Shulan went back to her room and took out a few pomegranates and a bag of dates.
"Take this bag of fruit home and eat it instead of bringing it to the factory to attract attention."
Zhengguo took it and took a look into the bag, his eyes brightening up surprisingly, "Grandma, you are amazing. Where did you get the dates?"
Qian Shulan smiled and said, "I got it from someone when I went to cut grass for pigs with your uncle. One tree has produced so many fruits." She pointed to the back of the house and said, "I bought a tree from them. We can harvest fruits ourselves next year."
She had to justify what she had given out, so she planted a jujube tree behind the house. She didn't dare to plant too many, or else they would be cut down in the future on the pretext of "cutting off the capitalist tail"!
She also specially planted an apple tree and a persimmon tree in the old courtyard.
Zhengguo ran to the water tank, scooped up a bucket of water, and washed half a gourd of dates. He tasted one and his eyes widened. "Grandma, this date is so delicious!"
Qian Shulan smiled and said, "I'll get you some more when you leave! These dates can be kept for several days!"
Zhengguo quickly declined, "No, no! You eat it yourself!" The sixteen-year-old boy felt embarrassed to snatch food from his grandmother.
"It's okay. I still have plenty here. These are specially reserved for you."
Zhengguo felt sweet in his heart.
See Jungkook eating dates while feeding the baby grapefruit.
Qian Shulan then continued to make clothes.
Seeing her grandmother's struggling movements, Zhengguo swallowed a date and said, "Grandma, if you can't do it, let Third Aunt do it. Why do you have to suffer for yourself!"
Qian Shulan laughed and said, "That won't work! If you always let others do it, what are you going to do with your own hands?"
Zhengguo thought so too.
The two of them chatted in a random manner again.
Two more people walked into the yard, they were Cao's mother and Cao's father!
Qian Shulan quickly stood up, put all the needles and threads back into the basket, and called her in, "Teacher Cao, come in and sit down."
Cao's mother carried a bag and put it on the table.
These are the four gifts for marriage proposal! Cigarettes, wine, candy and a box of biscuits.
After the two sat down, Cao's father was like a saw-mouthed gourd, and Cao's mother spoke, "Aunt, I'm proposing marriage to your granddaughter Xiaomei on behalf of my son. My in-laws are all working in the county and not at home, so I wanted to discuss it with you first, do you think it's okay?"
Qian Shulan nodded. Xiaomei is already eighteen years old this year and is old enough to get married.
She thought of Cao Chuanzheng who was still at the Agricultural Science Academy, so she asked, "Where's Xiaozheng? When will he come home?"
Speaking of her son, Cao's mother smiled. "I received a letter from him yesterday, saying that he would be able to go home in a month. He wanted to get married while he was back. I have discussed this with Xiaomei. I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things early this morning. Aunt-in-law, what do you think of this?"
Qian Shulan waved her hand and said, "As long as the two children can discuss it themselves, it'll be fine!"
She took the calendar down from the wall and flipped through it. Calendars of that era had information on predicting good and bad luck.
She flipped through the pages and said, "Then November 16th is a lucky day! It's a good date for getting married!"
Seeing that she agreed, Cao's mother stood up and said, "Aunt, thank you so much!"
Qian Shulan waved her hand, "No, no!"
She thought for a while and said, "As for the dowry for marriage, let's wait for the third brother and his wife to come back and discuss it with you!" She thought of what Cao Chuanzheng had said before, that if Xiaomei was dating him, he would come back.
She couldn't help but ask, "Has he decided to return to our production team?"
Cao's mother shook her head. "They said he was assigned to the county town. He'll be a clerk in the Labor Bureau first."
Hearing this, Qian Shulan was even more satisfied. It's good for the couple to live in the same place! Living apart is not good after all! In the future, they won't even be able to take care of their children!
These two are teachers in the production team's primary school, so it's not easy for them to go to the county town to help take care of the baby. I'm afraid the child will have to be taken care of by the couple themselves.
After discussing this matter, Cao's mother said goodbye.
The two men sent Cao's father and mother out.
Sitting back in his seat, Zhengguo held his chin with his hand and looked worried.
"What's wrong?" Qian Shulan looked at him and felt a little surprised that he didn't even bother to eat the dates.
"Grandma, time flies! Sister Xiaomei is getting married in a blink of an eye." Zhengkang's wedding date was also set, which was on the last day of this month.
Sun Daqin was already very busy. Because the couple didn't save enough money, they only bought a foundation in the county town and built the house themselves.
But the couple had to go to work and it was impossible to supervise the work, so Sun Daqin, the only free person, took over.
Qian Shulan nodded in agreement, "Next it will be your turn, Little Donkey, and Xiao He."
Speaking of Xiao He, she was admitted to a technical secondary school this year. She also chose accounting as her major, which is not an easy major.
In the past, I could study and play at the same time and still get the first place in the exam, but since I entered technical secondary school, such a good thing is no longer possible.
Just reading the various formulas in the book will tire you out. Xiaohe can only come back once a month.
Even the food was delivered by Wang Shouyi.
Perhaps he really wanted to correct his mistakes, so Wang Shouyi not only worked hard to educate his daughter and adopted son, but he even visited Li Chunhua several times.
Li Chunhua felt more at ease, and felt that she had done what her mother-in-law said, and it really paid off. When she learned it, her husband would definitely treat her well as he did now.
With motivation, she studied harder.
She gritted her teeth and recited thousands of times what she had learned, which she had never been able to remember before.
Qian Shulan also visited her and asked the old tailor, who was very impressed by her hard work. Qian Shulan was also very satisfied. As long as they were learning well, she would not be so exhausted from the transformation.
Qian Shulan picked up the needle and thread and started sewing.
Suddenly, I heard Zhengguo stand up, "Grandma, I'm going back first!"
Qian Shulan nodded, went to his room and filled another bag of dates for him to take home and eat slowly.
Zhengguo walked out of the yard carrying half a bag of grapefruits and a bag of dates.
The weight in his hands was still heavy, so he wanted to walk around the path in the alley.
As I was walking to the front, I suddenly saw a girl holding a five-year-old boy in the yard in front.
He looked carefully and found that the girl was Xu Lizhen. She was wearing a warm yellow dress, had two braided pigtails and beige hairbands on both sides.
The little boy pouted and hung his head, looking unhappy. "Aunt, why don't you just get married and stop caring about me!"
Xu Lizhen touched his little head and said, "Don't worry! How could your aunt abandon you and get married?"
The little boy's eyes were filled with tears. He looked up at Xu Lizhen and said, "But that aunt said that with me as a burden, you can't marry into a good family." The little boy let go of his aunt's hand and lowered his head.
Just as Xu Lizhen was about to persuade him, the matchmaker came out of the yard and called Xu Lizhen to talk to her.
Perhaps because they were afraid that the little boy would hear them, the two of them kept a distance from each other.
The little boy didn't notice what the two people were doing. He kicked the stones and thought about what the old lady had just said. He felt very sad and couldn't help but reddening his eyes.
He cried so hard that he even squatted down, but was worried that others would see him crying, so he quickly ran to the alley.
Then he came face to face with Jungkook.
The little boy had tears on his face and his face turned red instantly.
Zhengguo took out a date from his cloth bag. The little boy drooled at the red date.
"Want to eat?"
The little boy swallowed and nodded wildly.
The little boy thought Zhengguo would give it to him, but Zhengguo stuffed the dates into his mouth.
The little boy burst into tears and pointed at Zhengguo, "You are a bad guy too!"
Just as Zhengguo was about to speak, he saw Xu Lizhen walk in with an unhappy look on her face, obviously having seen what he had just done.
Zhengguo couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
However, Xu Lizhen seemed not to notice his discomfort. Zhengguo's heart tightened when he saw her slightly red eyes.
Xu Lizhen turned to the little boy and said, "Xu Youlin, you are a man, how can you cry over a stutter? I would rather die of starvation than eat charity! Have you forgotten all that?"
The little boy lowered his head in shame.
Seeing that he had admitted his mistake, Xu Lizhen stopped holding on to him and continued walking into the alley holding his hand.
Zhengguo followed them. He wanted to explain that she had misunderstood him, but he felt that this was not convincing. After all, his actions just now seemed to be really problematic.
Jungkook had no choice but to follow closely behind the two.
After a long time, Xu Lizhen finally sighed, "Aunt will never marry again, and will live a good life with Youlin. Aunt will definitely be able to support Youlin."
Although this sounds bold, it is actually very difficult.
Xu Lizhen was a girl, and the work points she earned every day from helping the production team raise chickens were not enough for two people.
After the grain was distributed, the money received was very limited.
Xu Youlin will have to go to school in the future, which will be another huge expense. It will be really difficult for her as a girl.
However, the several families introduced to her by the matchmaker Hua did not agree to her marrying in with her nephew.
A series of failed blind dates made Xu Lizhen wake up.
Although she could still get married if she lowered her status, those men were either from very poor families or had lost their wives.
She wanted to marry a man of similar age, but he disliked her because she had a child.
Although this child is not hers, she really cannot afford to feed an extra mouth.
Xu Lizhen didn't want to talk about it. She wanted to get married because she didn't want people to gossip about her and cause trouble, and because she wanted her nephew to live a better life.

Copywriting 1
When talking about the love for the entertainment industry, many people are ashamed, accompanied by envy that is difficult to conceal.
This envy has nothing to do with her beauty and acting skills. There is no shortage of good-looking female stars in the entertainment industry.
To use the words of a Weibo celebrity, this kind of envy is that this woman comes to the entertainment industry either to act or to find a boyfriend.

On the talent show stage, the boy with delicate looks politely answered the mentor's questions.
"I just turned eighteen last month."
“On my birthday, I received the best coming-of-age gift.”
Then, he shyly glanced at Zhong Yi who was sitting in the tutor's seat.
Zhong Yi had a decent smile on his face and the tip of his pen heavily scratched across the paper.
She didn't expect that the sunny boy who didn't speak Chinese and whom she met while relaxing in Northern Europe after being cheated on by Xie Qian was actually a Chinese and came to participate in the talent show where she was a mentor.
So what? She won't be responsible for something that is consensual.
