Chapter 495 Taking Taotao to the Northwest
There are at least 7 or 8 kilograms of brown sugar at home now. Even if I drink brown sugar water every day, it will last me a long time. Shen Qiu doesn't want the brown sugar that Shen Shuyu brought.
"Brown sugar won't go bad. This is for you. Why are you asking me to take it back?"
Shen Shuyu looked at the baby in her arms with a smile in her eyes, "You must feel satisfied now that you have a son."
"I'm satisfied. I'll try to give Xiaoping a younger sister next year." After having a son, Shen Qiu still wants a daughter because daughters are caring and thoughtful.
After having a younger brother, Xiaoze would come here every day. Sometimes he would lie on the kang all day long and just watch his younger brother.
With her mother-in-law taking care of her during the confinement period, Shen Qiu felt comfortable and recovered well. The first thing Shen Qiu did after the confinement period was to take a bath and wash her hair. She really couldn't stand it anymore, it was too uncomfortable.
Jiang's mother boiled two large pots of ginger water. "Xiaoqiu, mom has filled the water. You can take a bath now."
After taking a shower and washing his hair, Shen Qiu felt relaxed all over. The sticky feeling on his body was gone and he was in an extremely good mood.
Li Caixia originally planned to come and take care of her daughter during her confinement.
Li Caixia did not come, but sent a large bag of packages containing children's clothes and shoes.
Xiaoze had a lot of diapers when he was a child. Gu Jiandong washed them and put them in the cabinet when they were no longer needed. Shen Shuyu took some for Xiaoping to use.
In addition, Shen Qiu cut up some old clothes and diapers, which were enough.
Jiang's mother took more than two months off to take care of her daughter-in-law. With her mother-in-law around, Shen Qiu had an easier time taking care of the children.
Jiang Ziqiang did the housework as soon as he came back. He also washed the baby's diapers. Every time he washed diapers, Xiaoze would sit beside him.
"Uncle, my brother's diaper stinks. Do you want to cover your nose and wash it? Xiaoze will help you.
Uncle, you are using too much force. You have rubbed the diaper to pieces. Grandma Jiang will scold you later.
Uncle, why aren't you smiling? Are you unhappy washing your brother's diapers? Mom said,
You have to be happy every day. If you are unhappy, your aunt will also be unhappy..."
This child talks a lot. Jiang Ziqiang feels like there is a loudspeaker honking beside him.
He wondered why his good brother was a quiet boy, but his son was such a chatterbox.
"Xiao Ze, your brother misses you. Go in and see if he is okay."
"Okay then. I'll go in and see my little brother. I'll come out to accompany my uncle later."
Jiang Ziqiang: "..."
Shen Shuyu took some time to take her son back to Shenjiaba Brigade. This time she came back mainly to take Taotao to the Northwest.
My uncle and aunt have always been thinking about their son. Asking them to see Taotao will give them hope and they can find joy in their hard life.
The granddaughter said she wanted to take her grandson to the Northwest. They wanted their grandson to reunite with his parents.
She was afraid of causing trouble for her granddaughter, so she was hesitant. "Shu Yu, let's forget it."
Yang Zhen had been reading the newspapers, and he had sensed something different in them. If the situation continued like this,
They might actually be able to leave here one day.
"Grandpa, Grandma Liang, my parents-in-law have always said that they miss Xiaoze. I can take care of one child, and I can take care of two children.
The two children will have company on the trip. I have already bought the tickets.
Please pack two sets of clothes for Taotao. We will leave tomorrow.
Write down what you want to say to Taotao's parents on a piece of paper and I'll take it over."
Having said that, Liang Jun began to pack clothes for his grandson.
"Taotao, be good on the train. There are human traffickers on the train, so you can't run around.
You have to be sensible and not cause trouble for your sister, okay? You also have to help your sister take care of Xiaoze, and listen to what your sister says.
When you see your parents in the Northwest, you should pay more attention to them, tell them your grandfather and I are fine, and tell them not to worry about us.
The Northwest is a tough place. You may not be able to adapt to it when you first arrive, but you will get used to it after staying for two days.
They were short of water and food, so they had to eat less when they got there.
Your parents will share their food with you, so just eat a little and let them eat more..."
When Shen Shuyu returned home, Old Lady Shen began to pack things for her granddaughter again, muttering as she did so.
"You're leaving right after you come back, I can't bear to leave my dear baby.
And my great-grandson, my great-grandmother still loves him so much, he is so cute, I don’t even want to let him go.”
Xiaoze hugged Old Lady Shen's thighs and said sweetly, "Grandma Zeng, Xiaoze will come home to accompany you when he comes back from the Northwest. Xiaoze will bring you lots of delicious food."
"Oh my, Xiaoze is so filial at such a young age, he is really a good grandson of his great-grandmother."
With Xiaoan and Xiaoyan at home, Xiaoze didn't feel lonely at all when he came back. After coaxing the old lady, the three children ran out to play.
When they came back home in the evening, the three children were all turned into mud figures. Seeing that his eldest sister wanted to beat his nephew, Shen Jiabao quickly took the three children to take a bath.
Only when her clean son stood in front of her did Shen Shuyu's anger subside.
If her son grew up in the countryside, he would definitely become a monkey. There are so many fun places in the countryside.
"Second aunt, just bake a few pancakes, you don't have to do anything else." Seeing Shen Chunling starting to busy herself in the kitchen, Shen Shuyu quickly spoke.
Every time she got on the train, her second aunt would cook a lot of food.
"Second Auntie just makes some pancakes, nothing else."
"My dear, this is the food distributed this year. Take some for your parents-in-law to try.
This bag contains five pairs of Thousand Layer Shoes, all in your parents-in-law's sizes. You can give them the shoes you make yourself, which are durable and comfortable. "
Afraid that there were too many things and Guaibao couldn't carry them all by himself, Grandma Shen didn't pack much this time, only two snakeskin bags.
Taotao was waiting for Shen Shuyu on the road early in the morning, carrying his package. Afraid that the villagers would find out, Taotao stopped only when he was almost at the commune.
He didn't know where the station was and kept waiting by the roadside.
"Taotao, come up."
Shen Shuyu told the child to wait outside the village entrance, but the child was afraid of being seen by others, so he walked a long way.
Fearing that their son and daughter-in-law would have no food, Liang Zhen and his wife packed a bag of food and asked their eldest grandson to take it with him.
These are all the food they saved in their daily lives.
Xiaoze reached out and put the food on Taotao's back on his shoulder. Taotao opened his mouth for a long time before speaking.
"Xiao Ze, this bag of food weighs 20 kilograms, don't you think it's heavy?"
Xiaoze reached out and took the food off his shoulder. With a wave of his arm, the food could easily spin in circles in his hand. "It's not heavy at all."
Taotao: "..." He is worthy of being the son born to her sister.
Old Man and Old Lady Shen looked at their great-grandson's little appearance and smiled kindly.
When the bullock cart arrived at the station gate, Shen Shuyu did not let her grandparents and eldest brother see them in. "Grandparents, eldest brother, you guys go back."
"We'll take you to the car and then go back."
"The station is too crowded and crowded. You don't need to go in."
