Chapter 76: Self-knowledge

Views:

Xue Xiaohui's mother still left Qiongzhou Island.

There are many women in the family courtyard. Although these people often gossip behind their backs and make irresponsible remarks, they are the ones who come to help if any family has difficulties. Take care of the home.

Qin Rou taught her to change her breastfeeding position, trying to find a way to make her more comfortable. Li Qinghua happened to be breastfeeding her daughter, so she simply fed the two girls together. Xue Xiaohui was very grateful to her.

"It's okay, we have enough to eat and enough milk."

Huahua's mother really has enough milk, and the youngest daughter of the Wang family is becoming white and tender every day. Li Qinghua is very envious of seeing her. She thinks the other's daughter is more beautiful.

She looks better than her jumping girl.

The Wang family's daughter's nickname is Niannian, and she inherited her mother Xue Xiaohui's pair of big and round almond eyes. She looks very soft and cute, just like a little milk cat, and she cries softly.

Li Qinghua couldn't help but said to her old Liu: "How about letting this child grow up and marry our Liu Yue?"

Political Commissar Liu: "You're thinking about farts. Arranged marriages aren't popular in this day and age."

Li Qinghua snorted twice, "If you want to have an arranged marriage, they may not necessarily like our Liu Yue, after all, he looks like you."

Political Commissar Liu gasped, "What's wrong with looking like me? Am I ugly?"

"Do you look good like Chief of Staff Lu?"

Commissar Liu: "At least I look better than Zhang Tuan."

"Only you think so."

"Both my daughter and my son look like you, that's why I can't compare to others. I'm sorry for my son, I'm sorry for my daughter, it's all because of you playful moms who don't live up to expectations."

"Li Qinghua, take a closer look at your daughter's face, doesn't she look like you?"

It was January of 1974, it was already the end of the year, and the Spring Festival was about to be celebrated, but most people didn't have much thought about celebrating the New Year. The same was true for Qin Rou's family. This year, they only planned to make a simple reunion dumpling, and it was also a few days before the Spring Festival. , Received news of victory ahead.

Everyone in the family courtyard is very happy, there are happy things, there are also sad things, and there will still be sacrifices in the end. This year has passed in such a hurry.

In order to strengthen the defense, the base continued to expand, and many people moved into the family courtyard.

Lu Yan stayed on defense around an island and never came back until May, when Qin Rou went to the port to pick up her father with two running thieves.

The weather on this day was particularly good, cloudy, no rain, no sun. Standing on the port and looking at the vast sea, I only felt that the sea was deep blue. At this time, there were many family members in the port.

The two cubs brought by Qin Rou are the most eye-catching. The two cubs look exactly the same. They are white and cute. They are wearing newly made white clothes. The pattern on the chest is a cute little whale spraying water. The blue trousers underneath, and the little blue trousers were sewed two balls of rabbit tails on the blue trousers in a wicked way, and they flickered when walking.

Mother Qin Rou's workmanship was too poor, so she could only offer a bunch of rabbit tails, and her aunt Qin Mian made the clothes.

Seeing the two cubs, the surrounding family members all praised: "The two cubs look so good."

"The child of Chief of Staff Lu's family."

"This little dress is cute."

Qin Rou was also very happy to hear people around her praise her child. She also put on a skirt today, and the little dumpling tugged at the hem of her skirt.

"Mom, it's the sea!"

"Daddy is a big shark, coming back from the sea..."

People around: "????" Big shark

Qin Rou: "..."

Qin Rou finally couldn't hold back a few days ago, and showed her two sons the stick figure book she drew - "Little Shark Family".

When I was raising two cubs, I had a sudden inspiration, and I drew every day to record my daily life. As for why the protagonist is a baby shark, of course it is because her family has two baby sharks.

People are all chickens, ducks, sheep, and whales, and here she is a little shark.

The cute little shark family is ferocious and extraordinarily warm and cute. By the way, we will introduce the underwater world. The little shark baby standing at the top of the food chain, how to eat, drink, play and play, explore and play with corals and pry shells to find pearls, how to try to be friends with small fish and shrimps, As a result, my friend was scared to death by him...

The two cubs liked the daily life of the baby shark, and Qin Rou also liked it very much. Her painting skills are not good, but they are by no means bad, let alone drawing cute things, plus When raising a baby, I was full of childlike innocence, and the story of the little shark I drew was very warm and touching.

Qin Rou intends to publish the baby shark picture book at her own expense and keep it as a souvenir for her family. She has already inquired about it, and it only costs one or two hundred yuan to publish it at her own expense. It would be fine to print four or five hundred copies as a souvenir.

It's almost the second birthday of the two little cubs. I originally planned to give it to the two little shark babies on their birthdays, but I couldn't hold it back anymore, so I showed it to the cubs first.

In addition to the little shark picture book drawn by this mother herself, Qin Rou first asked Chen Yubai, Chen Mian's father, and Qin Mian's father-in-law to help with the knife. Qin Rou came up with a story plan and asked Mr. Zai Zai draws a children's picture book.

Mr. Chen hadn't started painting for a long time, and he didn't want to agree at first, but after staying in elementary school these years, he became a little more childish, and knowing that it was a children's picture book, he agreed.

After several months of hard work, I drew a set of simple and beautiful children's fun picture books.

Qin Rou flipped through it and liked it very much. Mr. Chen's style of writing is also very childlike, warm and healing. He said: "I am more happy when I draw these warm and simple stories than I am when I draw anything else."

"I hope you like porridge porridge and dumplings."

This picture book is indeed very exquisite. Qin Rou couldn't help but show it to Director Wu. The kindergarten director Wu Min liked it very much when he saw it, so he said, "Why don't you publish it, our kindergarten can also book one. There are hundreds of volumes, just right for the little ones to read."

"The kids will love it."

When Qin Rou heard this, she also became interested. There is nothing wrong with their children's picture book, and it is suitable for publication. Even if it can't be sold, it doesn't matter. We can publish it at our own expense. Send out a copy to avoid everyone arguing.

Qin Rou went to contact a publishing house in Guangcheng by herself. At the beginning, they did not agree to publish it. It was Director Wu who helped to coordinate. Qin Rou said that she would publish hundreds of volumes at her own expense, but then there was a sudden change. He closed his mouth and said that it was published by the publishing house here.

Self-publishing is basically losing money to publish a book as a souvenir, and most of them are like this. The publishing house publishes it, and the national distribution is placed in Xinhua Bookstore, and the author can get a certain income.

At this time, Journey to the West and the like have already been released, and now the publishing house is working overtime to make a few sets of comic strips about Journey to the West and making trouble in the Heavenly Palace. Naotian Palace is beautiful.

People Publishing House is still quite controversial about whether to publish it or not: "It is very warm and beautiful to release such a simple painting. The point is that there is no story. Can children like it?"

"Those who can understand Havoc in Heaven don't like this kind of villain painting."

"A two- or three-year-old child can't even read a word, why should he read this?"

"Children still prefer to read more interesting comics..."

Although it was very controversial, they still printed 1,000 copies at first. Qin Rou picked up a copy of "Baby Shark" and printed hundreds of copies at his own expense for collection.

It will take some time to receive samples.

A birthday picture book for two baby sharks.

"The boat is coming, the boat is coming!!!"

The two cubs watched the big ship dock at the port, and a group of people in white clothes got off the boat. The cubs stuck to their mother, trying to find their father.

"Where's Dad? Where's Dad?"

"big shark… "

The little shark also wants to find the big shark father who swims back from the sea.

It was the sharp-eyed mother who first spotted the big shark's father and waved towards him. Qin Rou grabbed the two restless little sharks and waited for their father to come over.

"Lu Yan—" Before she could finish her words, she was embraced by someone. Qin Rou hugged the man in front of her happily, feeling that there were only two of them left in the world.

Lu Yan hugged his daughter-in-law tightly. During this period of time, he didn't want to kill him. He dreamed of holding his daughter-in-law in his arms.

The husband and wife hugged each other tightly, inseparable, and the excitement of reuniting after a long absence filled their chests.

The two forgotten baby sharks look up at their parents, and the uncles and aunts around them are also having an intimate reunion, as if no one cares about them.

Baby Shark: "..."

Baby Shark: "..."

How is this going

Since mother hugged dad, they had no choice but to hug dad's thigh. There were four of them in the family. Lu Yan hugged his daughter-in-law, and two stubby boys hugged his leg from behind, one on the left and the other on the right.

"Daddy Daddy..."

"dad… "

Doctor Zhou looked at the scene with envy, and said to his wife, "Why did my son almost call others Dad when I came back, and the two sons hugged their legs and called Dad..."

"That's because Chief of Staff Lu's face, of course his son can recognize it."

"I'm so ugly, my son can't recognize him, he calls Lao Zhang Dad."

"Unexpectedly, Lao Zhou, you are quite self-aware."

Captain Qian Pengfei looked at this scene, raised his eyebrows, seemed to know each other, no, very familiar, even if there were two more cubs, it was the same as in previous years, he said to his wife: "...you see The newlyweds."

His wife raised her hand and touched his forehead: "You must have burned your head, Xiao Lu has been married for several years."

"Yes, I also want to say, I've been married for several years, why are you still so sticky?"

After hugging for a long time, the irresponsible shark parents finally let go. Lu Yan took off the hat and put it on the head of one cub, and picked up the two cubs in each hand. Qin Rou snuggled up to him, and the family The four talked and laughed and went home together.

There are two little cubs in the family, and they don’t care about the few but the unevenness. The hat just now was put on the head of the elder brother Zhou Zhou, which made the younger brother Xiao Jiaozi not satisfied. Hat, I want a hat too…”

Zhouzhou held down the hat on his head, and the twinkling red stars were shining.

Little Dumpling: "!!!!" I'm so angry, my brother doesn't even have brotherly love.

"Okay, my brother will wear it for my younger brother later."

"Okay, let's go home."

Little Jiaozi felt that she couldn't be comforted by a hat: "I want daddy's clothes!!!"

"I also want!!"

Lu Yan: "How do you teach the children?" They want to dismantle their father.

Qin Rou: "..."

How do I know

"You come to teach."

You do it, you come on.
