Raising Babies in the 70s

Chapter 58: Confinement

Views:

Qin Rou is confinement.

There are often fish, shrimp, and pork to eat. The family even killed a chicken and made chicken soup for her to drink. The mother-in-law also wanted to get some pig's trotters to make soup for her, but Qin Rou said no.

She wants something lighter.

The weather is hot these days, and confinement is quite a pain. Qin Rou doesn't have much appetite, so she just wants to eat something fresh and juicy. For meat, she only wants to eat boiled boiled shrimp, or scallops. She likes it very much. .

Compared with meat, she prefers to eat green vegetable leaves, as well as the small tomatoes grown by herself, which are very appetizing, sweet and sour.

Her mother-in-law and Lu Yan didn't force her to eat whatever she wanted. There was always enough goat milk and eggs every day, and she was given all the good things.

The only advantage of confinement in the summer on this island is that there are a lot of fruits, especially the bananas in Qiongzhou Island, which is really her favorite. Bananas are super sweet. In addition to bananas, there are also lychees and papayas, especially bananas. And papaya, the output is large, and the quantity is cheap. Farmers feed it to pigs, and she also eats it.

Qin Rou: "..." I'm supplementing dietary fiber.

In addition to drinking goat milk, she can often drink coconut water happily. The coconuts are grown in front of her house. I heard that Lu Yan climbed up to pick them himself. It's just a pity that Qin Rou didn't see her husband climb a tree to pick coconuts.

The coconuts planted in front of my house are our own coconuts. In the past, someone picked them or used tools. Now, in order to express his love as a father, Lu Yan simply climbed the coconut tree with a rope by himself.

The ugly cubs grew up day by day, almost in a different shape every day, and gradually grew. Although the skin was still wrinkled and red, the two of them changed from ugly cubs to less ugly cubs.

The two ugly cubs look exactly alike, and at first glance they are really indistinguishable, but Dabao has a red ribbon tied around his wrist to prevent parents from confusing them.

If you accidentally confuse them, you will not be able to tell the difference between your brother and your brother.

Qin Rou and Lu Yan have chosen names for their children. The eldest son is called Lu Weizhou, nicknamed Zhouzhou, and the youngest son Lu Weize, nicknamed Jiaozi. Originally, they wanted to make a pair of porridge and dumplings, but felt that the word porridge was too complicated and cruel. So it’s called Zhouzhou.

Zhou is the land and islands in the water, and Ze is the vast ocean. Zhouzhou can go out to sea by boat to find his younger brother Zeze, and Zeze can land on a dumpling-like boat to find Zhouzhou...

"It's like a tongue twister." This is probably the occupational disease of the announcer.

"Zhouzhou and dumplings." Qin Rou couldn't help pinching her son's chubby face, pinching the left side, pinching the right side, never favoring one over another.

After pinching, as an old mother, she blamed herself very much, thinking that the little guy's face was already wrinkled, and you still pinched him, so be careful to ruin the cub's appearance.

After poking it, Xiao Zai Zai's face is really super tender.

This pair of brothers eat and sleep when they are full all day long, just like two piggies.

Day by day of raising pigs.

"Mama's son is so cute."

During the period of confinement, I was really bored to the point of going crazy, I couldn't do anything, I could only admire the ugly cubs.

Ugly Zai Zai Zai Zai Zai is not so ugly, he looks very cute when he sleeps, a pair of small hands and feet, one finger is very small, it makes people's hearts melt, when the two little guys close their eyes, their eyelids are very thin, Qin Rou was very surprised to find that her baby's eyelashes were very long, super beautiful, and her small nose was also tall and straight.

Qin Rou tried her best to hold back her cheap claws, not to poke the bridge of Zai Zai's nose, and don't poke Zai Zai's nose down.

— They seem to have an ADHD mother.

Qin Rou gazed at them tenderly. These two little cubs seemed to be copied and pasted by a human mouse, and they looked too much alike.

When they were sleeping, their small mouths were lightly pursed, and when they breathed, there was still a rising and falling fragrance of milk.

Qin Rou lowered her head and kissed the little cheeks one by one.

It's so cute.

"You're flirting with them again." Lu Yan entered the room. He had just washed the diapers for the children. As soon as he came in, he saw his wife touching the cub. "Be careful that you wake me up."

"I'll show you the dumplings crying."

The cubs are super well-behaved when they are sleeping quietly, but when they cry, it is a duo of magic sounds. When one cries, the other will not lag behind, and hurry to cry together. The two brothers have a tacit understanding.

Especially the younger brother Lu Weize, the little dumpling, howled terribly.

Qin Rou obediently did not move.

Lu Yan smiled softly, walked over, sat down beside his wife and children, pointed to his handsome face, Qin Rou leaned over and kissed his handsome face very clearly.

Just when she was about to pull away, Lu Yan pressed her shoulder and kissed her.

When the two separated, Qin Rou didn't know whether to dislike herself or him, "It's because of you that you still kiss."

Qin Rou has stopped looking in the mirror for a long time. Now she is wearing a turban on her head, and all her hair is tied up like a village girl. She still doesn't know what it smells like on her body. She is used to it, so she can't smell it, no It means that no one else can smell it.

It is said that the son does not think the mother is ugly, only the cubs accompany her to squat.

Seeing this, Lu Yan frowned with a smile: "What's wrong with me kissing my wife?"

Lu Yan came to kiss her again, and Qin Rou pushed him away with a smile, "You also smell like milk, you young comrade Lu."

"It's all about you and your son."

"Okay, Zai Zai woke up."

The couple found that the two cubs had opened their eyes and looked at their parents curiously. Perhaps they had heard too many voices from their parents in the womb. They were very kind to Qin Rou and Lu Yan.

Two pairs of big black grape-like eyes are staring at the person, while looking silly.

The two cubs seem to be installed on the same channel, the elder brother grinned sillyly, and the younger brother also grinned sillyly.

"Lu Yan, look at them laughing, laughing, cub."

"The dumpling contestant smiled sweeter."

"It's over, look, can they understand me? Zhouzhou contestant came from behind, and this little mouth smiles really brightly."

"Bang, bang, bang."

There was a knock on the door, and two little heads poked their heads in. They were Xiaopangdun and Chen Jingyi.

Xiao Ming, who likes to blare, has lowered the volume a lot recently, and Xiao Pangdun is also afraid that his loud voice will accidentally open Pandora's box, and the crying of the two brothers is earth-shattering.

"Little aunt?!"

"Auntie."

The two little guys came to see their little cousin.

Cousins in pairs.

"come in."

Two little guys entered the room, and Lu Yan held them both in his arms. Xiao Jingyi and Xiao Ming looked at the little ones in amazement.

It really seems like oh!

"Ah... Yay..."

Originally, the two brothers, who opened their eyes and were silly and happy, saw the two cousins. They were not afraid of seeing outsiders at all, but they were very excited and happy.

The more people there seem to get more excited and enjoy being watched.

Like two restless little centipedes, their little arms and legs were shaking and shaking.

The mother-in-law Jiang Ping stood outside the door. Jiang Ping brought in a bowl of papaya cut into cubes for Lu Yan and the children to eat. Qin Rou had a hot papaya porridge.

Every time it comes to this kind of time, it is a time of super cruelty, other people are feasting on it, and the cubs can't hold back anymore, and they want to feed their mothers.

Jiang Ping took the two little guys out to play, and helped the couple turn on the radio and turn down the volume. Qin Rou nursed the baby, and Lu Yan sat aside and fed her porridge.

The child fell asleep after eating, and Qin Rou leaned on her husband's shoulder and talked with him.

Qin Rou sat for two months. When the child was full moon, she simply gathered with her family to celebrate. There were many people in the family courtyard, and there were also many comrades in arms of Lu Yan. Most of them had nothing to do and could not leave their posts. It's troublesome, so I just live it simply.

At the beginning of September, Qin Rou was still confinement at home. In the past two days, a big typhoon landed, the school had already closed early, and every household had stocked up on water and food at home.

The family of my sister and brother-in-law came to their house to survive the typhoon. When the typhoon passed, there was no electricity, and it was pitch black at night. The house was lit with coconut oil lamps.

Typhoon days are very dangerous, everyone hides at home, the wind is howling outside, many things are blown into the sky, and some strange collision sounds are heard from time to time.

Qin Rou asked her sister, brother-in-law and parents-in-law to seal up the terrace on the second floor. The plants planted on the second floor were also moved into the room, and the doors and windows were closed, but a lot of rainwater still seeped in.

The water was rushing, and everyone sat together to avoid the typhoon, but they didn’t feel afraid. It was raining outside, and everyone inside ate steamed buns around the lights. My mother-in-law baked a lot of cakes in advance, and my father-in-law also made sesame salt, and there were two cans Sweet and sour cucumber sticks.

Only Lu Yan was not at home, and Qin Rou finished feeding the two cubs. The skin of the cubs has become white and tender now, as if water can be squeezed out. The scent of milk is very attractive.

It's like an ugly duckling turning into a swan.

The two cubs still ate and fell asleep, and they fell asleep after eating and eating. Qin Rou let the two cubs lie side by side to sleep, and she picked up a photo album, Looking at the photos of Zai Zai and their father, it is not only the photo of the baby's father, Qin Rou is still shameless, there are other people in the family, and a lot of herself, the Zai Zai, and her in-laws, sisters, and husbands have been added to the album A photo of the family.

Looking at it, the cubs woke up again with their eyes open, and looked around the world curiously. Qin Rou took them to look at the photo of her father, pointed to the person in the photo, and said, "This is Dad."

"This is mom."

Qin Rou knew that the two cubs were still short-sighted, and they must not be able to see clearly, so she just teased them.

When they heard the two names of father and mother, they also groaned and seemed very happy.

After the typhoon passed through, it was rare for Qin Rou to put on her shoes and stand on the balcony on the second floor to look into the yard.

—I can't wait to see it.

Mess everywhere.

Last year's beautiful yard has become... Qin Rou can't bear to describe it, her chicken fence collapsed, half of the chicken coop collapsed, the thatch umbrella fell down, as for the other flowers and plants... Hurry up and put the yellow lantern pepper and Green kumquats are serious when they are lifted up.

Qin Rou: "..."

My country is gone.

It’s really indescribable heartache. Last year it was still such a beautiful little courtyard, but now it’s full of colorful flowers, and it’s all ruined like this...

Head Zhang next door seemed to be heartbroken in the yard as well.

Happiness is always short-lived.

As for Political Commissar Liu, who has not yet reaped the fruits of his hard work, fortunately, he hasn't returned home yet.

Do you know what it means to start all over again
