Chapter 1629 Going to the South

(The content of the previous chapter is a bit out of order. Sorry, let’s continue with that one...)

Yang Ruoqing had never taken such a bath before, it was too hasty.

Especially when Baby Luo was crying like a machine gun one after another, it made Yang Ruoqing panic.

After hastily, he wiped himself clean as quickly as possible, put on his clothes and opened the bathroom door.

At the door, Baby Luo's little face was deformed from crying, and his voice was almost hoarse.

"How long do I wash you and how long do you cry? Baby Luo, baby Luo, why are you so unreasonable? Look at your brother, how well-behaved he is!"

Yang Ruoqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and felt helpless.

He reached out and took Baby Luo and held her in his arms, stroking her back and coaxing her.

Baby Luo cried so much that she was sweating. Yang Ruoqing took a handkerchief and wiped her, then found a stool and sat down, held her in her arms and started breastfeeding.

On the other side, Chen'er drank water and burped there. Tuoba Xian picked up Chen'er and walked around in the yard.

Finally, I took turns feeding the two children, bathing them, and putting them to sleep in the cradle.

"Mom, there is something I want to discuss with you."

In the main room next to the bedroom, while eating around a small table, Yang Ruoqing said to Sun and Tuoba Xian in front of her.

Tuoba Xian and Sun looked at each other, and Tuoba Xian asked, "What's the matter? Just tell me."

Yang Ruoqing said: "Tangyazi sent a letter home a few days ago, saying that the Japanese military camp has been busy with affairs recently and cannot take time to go home."

"I'm thinking that by the beginning of August, when the weather isn't so hot anymore and the children are over five months old, I want to go to the south," she said.

"Going to the south? Are you going to visit Tang Yazi for a short time? Or are you staying there for a short time? What about the two children?" Tuoba Xian asked.

Yang Ruoqing said: "I plan to stay there for a while and come back during the Chinese New Year."

"Well... I plan to take the two children there together."

"Besides, the business in the south also needs to be taken care of," she said.

Tuoba Xian and Sun looked at each other again, and Sun said: "I'm afraid Guang Qing'er won't be able to take care of the child alone when we go to the south. We have to follow him."

Tuoba Xian said: "You have a lot of things at home, and you have to cook for the students in the school. You can't leave."

"If that doesn't work, I'll go with you and take care of the child," she said.

Sun said: "The climate in the south is a little different from ours. You grew up in Daliao, so I'm worried that you won't be accustomed to the climate."

Tuoba Xian said: "It's okay, just get used to it."

Sun said: "It's hard to be acclimatized. You are delicate and expensive, so I'll do it. For cooking in the school, just find a reliable person in the village."

The two women were in a stalemate, and Yang Ruoqing smiled and spoke.

"Mother, please don't give in, you two should stay at home." Yang Ruoqing said.

"I'm taking my two kids to the south, Xiaoyu, and sister-in-law Xiuzhu are helping me take them," she said.

"If I can't do it manually, I can still find a reliable and experienced woman in the local area to help me take care of it," she added.

Tuoba Xian and Sun were finally convinced by Yang Ruoqing.

"Then we will leave in half a month, right?" asked Sun.

Yang Ruoqing nodded.

Sun's face immediately showed the emotion of reluctance.

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled, didn't say anything more, lowered her head and continued eating.

Parents are indispensable for a child's growth.

He was busy, so she took the children there, and the three of them went there, taking the family with them.

No matter how hard and tired he is, he will definitely be very happy when he sees his two babies.

Tuoba Xian continued: "If it is confirmed, then we will start making preparations in the next few days?"

Yang Ruoqing nodded.

"In the coming days, I will be even busier. I will seize the time to pick medicinal materials and other things, and then go to the south with the transportation team," she said.

"So, you have to work harder on things at home, mother," she added.

Both Sun and Tuoba Xian laughed, "You are talking nonsense again. Compared to all you have done for this family, it is nothing for us to pack some clothes and take care of the children."

The matter was decided happily.

Next, Yang Ruoqing got up early and stayed late at night, leading the herb collection team to be busy in the mountains and forests all day long.

Hungry and thirsty, there are treasures all over the mountains and plains, but it is a pity that I am missing my arms.

However, this is okay, resources are limited, we cannot fish in the marsh, we have to develop sustainably, right?

While she was busy in full swing, Sun and Tuoba Xian also had no time to relax at home.

Not only did they have to prepare the things the three of them needed to go south and take care of the children, but they also had to receive the visitors who came to the house.

Why?

Because as soon as the news spread that Yang Ruoqing and his wife were going to the south next month, all relatives and friends, as well as people with whom they had friendship in the village, and people with whom they had friendship in nearby villages.

They all came to Yang Ruoqing's house like a lantern and rushed to visit, delivering eggs, local specialties and other things to do for the three of them.

Sun and Wang Cuilian are mainly responsible for the reception.

But the Sun family had other things to do, so together with Tuoba Xian and Wang Cuilian, the Sun family also built a cradle in her yard.

During the day, Chen'er stayed with Sun in the yard next door. Baby Luo was more difficult to take care of, requiring the combined efforts of Tuoba Xian and Wang Cuilian.

So Baby Luo stayed in his own yard.

The two children were separated for the time being during the day, and when Yang Ruoqing came back in the evening, the two children stayed with Yang Ruoqing again.

On this day, Mrs. Sun had just sent away a group of women who came to visit her. She was busy collecting the eggs they had sent, and would wait for Yang Ruoqing and his wife to leave for the south before letting them take them with them.

The two children are almost five months old. Now, in addition to drinking milk, they also need to add two complementary foods every day.

The complementary food is stewed egg custard. After stewing, pour a few drops of sesame oil on it. The two children like it.

Mrs. Sun wanted to put away these egg custards, but someone happened to come again just now.

"Mother Qing'er, are you in the house?"

The moment she heard this voice, Mrs. Sun was startled.

Then he turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw Mr. Qian standing in the yard, looking towards the main room.

"What's the matter?"

Mrs. Sun came to the door of the hall and asked.

Qian took out a bamboo basket from behind, which also contained eggs.

Sun made a visual inspection and estimated that there were thirty or forty of them.

One penny each costs thirty or forty pence.

"What are you..." asked Sun.

Mr. Qian smiled and said, "I heard that Qing'er and his wife are leaving for the south next month. I don't have anything good to give, so I'll just send a few eggs for the children to eat."

Hearing this, Mrs. Sun was stunned.
