More than a hundred young men went up to the mountain to work on the 4,000-foot-high ground. They had been busy for seven or eight days, and finally they all fell into trouble.
The next step was to scatter ginseng seeds. Xu Shiyan didn't care about this. He had to go home quickly because his wife was about to give birth.
When I was examined at the hospital, the doctor said that I should be born in early November.
In his previous life, Xu Shiyan's eldest daughter was born on November 8th.
But after rebirth, many things have changed, and Xu Shiyan dare not say whether the child can be brought forward or delayed.
So he told Xu Chenghou that he planned to go home to accompany his wife.
I have been too busy this year and have not had time to spend time with my wife. Now these days, I have to go back and spend time with my wife.
On the morning of November 3rd, Xu Shiyan rode his bicycle down the mountain and returned home with a lot of things.
"Daughter-in-law, I'm back." Xu Shiyan shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door.
As a result, Su Anying did not come out, and his eldest son Xu Haiyuan ran out of the house.
"Dad, give me a hug."
Xu Haiyuan, who is one and a half years old, can already call his father, mother, grandpa, grandma and aunt clearly, and can also speak some simple words.
Although Xu Shiyan only spent a short time at home this year, he was always running back and forth, and every time he came back, he would get something delicious and fun for his son.
Therefore, the relationship between father and son has not faded. Xu Haiyuan talks about his father all day long at home.
Xu Shiyan casually leaned his bicycle against the garden stick, bent down and picked up his son, and kissed his tender little face.
"My dear son, do you miss your father at home?"
Xu Haiyuan nodded obediently, "Yeah, I've thought about it."
This kid was very smart. Before Xu Shiyan could ask any more questions, he pointed directly to his heart and said, "Here, I've thought about it."
His son's actions melted Xu Shiyan's heart.
Xu Shiyan lifted Xu Haiyuan, let his son ride on his neck, and ran around the yard carrying his son.
Zhou Guilan followed Xu Haiyuan out. When she saw her son and grandson making trouble in the yard, Zhou Guilan couldn't help but laugh.
"How old are you, and you can still make trouble like a child?" Zhou Guilan couldn't help shaking her head and laughing.
"How's it going on the mountain? Are you done with the work? Is your dad okay on the mountain?"
Zhou Guilan was also thinking about her husband. Xu Shiyan was busy this autumn and Xu Chenghou had no time to come down.
The old couple haven't seen each other for a long time. Don't look forward to seeing each other when they are together, but they miss you even when they are separated.
“The ginseng seeds have been planted, and all that’s left is to sow the seeds, which I don’t want to do.
I was thinking about when Yingzi would be born, so I came back quickly.
My dad is okay, very good. He has also learned to cook and can make simple meals.
I'll come back and stay for a few days, waiting for Yingzi to give birth, and I'll help take care of him for a few days, and then go up and replace my father."
Xu Shiyan carried his son and walked to his mother.
"Mom, how is Yingzi? Isn't there any movement yet?" What Xu Shiyan missed most was his wife.
"Your wife is not bad. She has always been lively and has a big belly. She has not missed any work at home and outside the house.
She had tidied up the new house from front to back, inside and out, and I just looked at Xu Haiyuan, a brat like me, and couldn't spare any time.
We moved into a new house a few days ago. It was cold and the new house couldn't be lit without a fire."
Zhou Guilan said, and together with Xu Shiyan, walked to the door of the five rooms in the west end.
Just at this time, Su Anying also opened the door and came out.
Xu Shiyan took a look and saw that his wife's belly was as round as a pot.
"Daughter-in-law, I'm back, how do you feel? Is there anything unusual?"
"It's okay, everything is fine. My stomach doesn't hurt. The baby has been wandering around in my belly all day long and is quite lively. Everything is fine."
Su Anying was very happy to see her husband back. She touched her belly with one hand and supported her waist with the other, and talked to Xu Shiyan with a smile.
Xu Shiyan came forward and touched his wife's belly.
It just so happened that at this moment, Su Anying's stomach moved.
"Huh? Why do I feel that this guy moves differently from his son back then?"
Xu Shiyan felt that this time the feeling in Su Anying's stomach seemed to be turning around.
When I was pregnant with Xu Haiyuan, that brat was punching me inside, and I could feel it through my belly, punching and kicking her.
"What your wife is carrying this time should be a girl.
My daughter is lazy, and even when she moves in her belly, it’s like swimming. She’s so lazy, and she punches and kicks her when she moves.”
Zhou Guilan next to her smiled and explained.
Zhou Guilan is such an old person and has given birth to so many children. What kind of things have she never experienced? Of course she knows a lot.
When Xu Shiyan heard that it might be his daughter, he was even more happy. His eldest daughter was finally coming, right?
"Mom, come into the house, Yingzi, walk slowly."
Xu Shiyan let his mother, supported his wife, and then carried his son on his shoulders, and the four of them entered the door.
The new house is well-kept, with smooth and flat cement floors and snow-white walls, which looks particularly neat and clean.
There were several pots of flowers on the window sill, including roses, nine-month chrysanthemums, clivias, and golden lanterns. These were all brought back by Xu Shiqin from shopping in the Songjiang River.
Especially the Clivia, Xu Shiqin particularly liked it. He bought a dozen of them from various places, and they were placed on the windowsills of the east and west rooms.
There seems to be a layer of wax on the green leaves, which looks very shiny and beautiful.
At this time, it is not the flowering period of Clivia, but it is the September chrysanthemum, and there are still a few blooming flowers. They are bright yellow in color and look delicate and cute. They are also quite beautiful.
There is a big kang in the east room, with a kangqin placed on the top of the kang. The two boxes are not in this room, so they must have been in the east room.
A shelf was built against the east wall, with a radio, a kettle, a teapot, cream and other items placed on it.
There is a large mirror hanging on the wall, with smaller picture frames on both sides of the mirror.
The photo frame contains some old photos of the Xu family, as well as photos taken when Su Anying and Xu Shiyan registered their marriage.
In addition, there are photos of Xu Haiyuan when he was six months old and one year old. There are no color photos at these years, they are all black and white.
Under the south window, I originally wanted to keep a set of sofas, but sofas are hard to sell these days, so I guess I have to wait a few years.
I don’t know whose idea it was, so I put the sewing machine there, and there was a shelf next to it, which served as Xu Shiqin’s cutting and ironing console.
That's okay, the light is good under the south window, so this arrangement is reasonable.
Xu Shiyan carried his son on his shoulders and walked around the east and west rooms. He felt that the layout of the house was fine and the tidying up was pretty good, but there was a little missing furniture.
It seems that I need to find someone to order a set of furniture, otherwise it won't fit the new house.
"Wait for a while and find a carpenter to build a set of furniture. I heard that furniture with veneer is popular now, so we will also build a set by then."
In the past two years, something with thirty-six legs has gradually appeared in the city, which is more beautiful than this old-fashioned furniture.
Xu Shiyan thought that he could find someone to come and explain in detail how to make this furniture. It would be good to make a set of modular furniture.
After all, this house is going to be lived in for many years. As for the furniture, it just needs to be a little new, but don't be too advanced.
People's appreciation changes with the times. If it is too advanced, others may not think it looks good.
"By the way, Mom, I plan to ask my eldest brother to go up the mountain and help watch for a while. Do you think that's okay?"
