MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 188
After eating milk fruit in the noon, Brother Xiaoling fell asleep, and it was difficult to sit in the courtyard outside. Lu Gu and Shen Yan gathered a brazier in the main room to make needles and thread.
There will be New Year's Eve in one month. Unlike last year, they have another baby doll in their family. The last time Shen Xuanqing went to town, he pulled some good cloth and planned to make new clothes, new shoes and tiger hats. It was the first time for Lingjun to celebrate the New Year, so he was not allowed to wear a new outfit from head to toe.
After the winter, the good boy often stays in his hometown. Shen Xuanqing now only hunts in the front mountain, and he will go out for a day at most and come back.
It was lying on the sack in the corner and slept. After the brazier burned, it bit the sack and dragged it over. Lu Gu was afraid that it would burn the hair on its head, so he dragged the dog with the sack back.
"Not too light." Lu Gu straightened up and said with a smile.
Shen Yan glanced at the good boy and said, "It's strange that he's not so fat."
The good boy whimpered fiercely in his throat, as if he understood her words, but he lay there lazily, obviously just frightening.
"Slacker." Shen Yan's almond eyes were slightly curved, and she laughed and scolded again.
The two of them were joking, and the good boy got up and shouted outside, and Lu Gu looked out of the main room. It was Shen Xuanqing who came back with a bamboo basket in his hand.
"Second brother." Shen Yan sat still, then lowered her head and bit off the embroidery thread in her hand.
Lu Gu put down the needle and thread, it was windy outside, Shen Xuanqing walked fast, he just stood up and didn't go out.
"Sleep?" Shen Xuanqing asked.
Lu Gu didn't know where he was asking Xiao Lingjun, and nodded with a smile: "I just fell asleep, have you eaten, and there is rice left in the pot."
Shen Xuanqing put the bamboo basket on the ground and said, "I wanted to get back early, so I just ate two butter cakes in the town."
"I'll bring it to you, it should still be hot." Lu Gu said and went to the kitchen.
Shen Yan took a look at the embroidery. Today, Caidie embroidered well, so she put it down and asked, "Second brother, what did you buy?"
Hearing this, Shen Xuanqing moved the bamboo basket over to show her. On the top was something wrapped in a piece of coarse cloth. He took it out and opened it. Inside were a bunch of brightly colored silk flowers and a headband, and said, "It's all here, you The silk flowers I want, as well as pears and roast chicken, I also bought winter pears, these two are for Lingge'er, and you can share the other silk flowers."
He took out the two small silk flowers from inside, Shen Yan glanced at them, and said with a smile, "It will look good when you wear them, but unfortunately Lingge's hair is short and the little tweezers can't tie them up, so if they don't put them on his ears, he will grab them. He took all the silk flowers on my head and pulled a few hairs of my hair. Otherwise, I would cut two pieces of soft cloth, sew the silk flowers on them, and tie them to Linger’s head like a forehead belt. How? ?"
Shen Xuanqing remembered that their little Lingjun likes to grab something in their hands, let alone Shen Yan, sometimes they don't put the child's arm in the swaddle, no matter if the adult's hair or sleeves have to be grabbed, he nodded and said: "So Very good."
Shen Yan has always been keen on dressing up her little nephew, and immediately went to the corner of the room to turn the cloth.
When Lu Gu brought the food, he saw the two silk flowers in Shen Xuanqing's hand for Xiaoling, and he suddenly smiled, but that's not it, they are the most beautiful baby dolls in their family, so they should be dressed up.
"Mother isn't there?" Shen Xuanqing sat down to eat and asked casually.
"Washing clothes for Zhao'er over there, I'm soaking wet." Lu Gu took out the things in the bamboo basket one by one, and cooked chicken until dinner. When it got cold, he asked, "If you want to eat the pancake, I'll warm it up for you."
Shen Xuanqing held a fluffy white-faced steamed bun in his hand, and after hearing the words, he said, "No need, I just ate two while it was hot on the road. I bought ten in total, and you eat the rest."
Shen Yan picked up a soft cloth and came out of the room, because it was a silk flower for Brother Xiaoling, and Lu Gu got a little oil on his hands and washed them before he started together. So care about it, it is not easy to cut firewood and carry water in the winter, and you can save it if you can.
One piece of soft cloth that was cut was plain, and the other was light yellow, which just matched the two silk flowers. He and Shen Yan sewed the silk flowers one by one.
At this moment, Brother Xiaoling is sleeping, so it is not easy to mess around. If he wakes up crying and crying, the whole family will not be able to rest.
After he woke up, Lu Gu hugged him and coaxed him and fed him another milk fruit. Then he sat beside the bed and called Shen Yan to come in and tie his forehead belt.
The two adults were full of interest. Brother Xiaoling opened his bright black eyes and didn't know what was going on. Because of the straps on his forehead, he twisted uncomfortably, trying to reach out and grab the things on his head.
"It's so beautiful." Shen Yan looked at the small pale yellow silk flowers on Brother Xiaoling's head. The silk flowers were sewn on the sides. This was the case with Dai Hua'er, but there were few in the center.
Even Shen Xuanqing came over to take a look. He was tall and standing, so he didn't need to squeeze in.
The child is so young and has not been exposed to the sun very much. Naturally, he is white and tender, and he is beautiful and cute with the little silk flowers. Whether he is auntie or aunt, they all look at Xiaoling and laugh.
"Oh, don't want to wear it?" Lu Gu tried to stop Xiao Lingjun from grabbing the hand on his head, but seeing the child humming and screaming, he had to untie it.
"Is it tied tightly? Try to tie it up loosely." Shen Yan still had the little lilac silk flower in her hand. After her little nephew stopped twisting, she tried to tie it up gently.
The one she just tied was actually not tight, but Brother Xiaoling was not used to wearing it, so when he noticed something on his head, he naturally wanted to grab it.
Shen Xuanqing watched from the side, raised and dropped his hand several times. Compared with his rough hand, Shen Yan's hand was small and light. She and Lu Gu got started, so she didn't have to. Lan Xiang knew that she had to be squinted.
Lingjun is different from Zhao'er in the end. Wei Lanxiang loves her eldest grandson, and she is also very tight to her own little soft-hearted little Shuang'er.
This time, the binding was very loose, so little Linger didn't squeak and shout, and he looked good in the lilac-purple silk flower, so happy that his own father smiled involuntarily next to him.
The more Shen Xuanqing looked at it, the more lovable and cute it became, and said, "Buy a few new ones during the Chinese New Year, and wear them every day."
"Yeah." Lu Gu agreed. Because the binding was too loose, Xiao Lingjun turned his head and rubbed it crookedly. He smiled, the child is too young, so don't force Dai Huaer or something, and just take it. down.
After having a child, I get busy and chaotic. Brother Xiaoling sometimes cries for a while without stopping. When Lu Gu is tired, he will replace Shen Xuanqing. No, there is also Wei Lanxiang. Sometimes I have to rest at night. The two of them are sleepy all day long, but their little spirits are so good-looking and beautiful, whoever comes to visit relatives will have to praise them when they meet them.
The days seem to pass in the blink of an eye, and before you know it, it's another New Year's Day.
On New Year's Eve, the rest of the family went out to fire a gun battle, and even Zhao'er, who couldn't sleep, was taken out. He was quite courageous, and Shen Yaoqing hugged him far away, but he didn't cry.
The sound of firecrackers rang out in the village one after another, and the villagers were happy during the Chinese New Year, but most people didn’t have that much money at home, so they didn’t buy many cannonballs because they had two baby dolls, and Lingjun was still too young. Buy it, make a few beeps and be buzzing.
Lu Gu didn't go out with the child in his arms. The doors and windows of the room were closed, trying to cover up the movement outside.
He patted the child to coax, Xiao Lingjun stopped crying, the window was covered with thick paper, and only the dim light and shadow of the burning brazier in the courtyard could be seen. When the night got darker and there were not so many gun battles, the entire Qingxi Village gradually became quiet.
Shen Xuanqing came back soon and took the child who was so noisy that he couldn't sleep, so that Lu Gu could rest his arm.
Not only candles were lit in the room, but there was also a beautiful palace lantern, with brocade flowers painted on the lantern paper, illuminating the room.
"My eldest brother and I will keep the year old at night. You sleep with you, so don't worry about it." Shen Xuanqing patted Xiao Linger as he spoke, and under the gentle shaking, Xiao Linger was also tired from crying just now, and his eyes gradually closed.
"Well, I also put vegetables and dry rice in the pot. Remember to add firewood at the bottom of the stove. If you are hungry in the middle of the night, you can eat some with your eldest brother. There are pastries and dried fruits on the outside plate." Lu Gu reached out and reached into Xiaoling. Feeling in Jun's quilt, with Mrs. Tang inside, it's not cold at all.
He tried on the quilt for Brother Xiaoling, and took out six copper coins that were tied with red rope on the table, and said, "This is the lucky money for Zhao'er. If I don't wake up, remember to put it by his pillow."
"Understood." Shen Xuanqing agreed. At night, for fear that the child would wake up and cry, it would be better for Lu Gu to sleep beside him. He was the only one who could give the New Year's money to the child.
Lunar New Year money is for good luck, it doesn't need to be too much, six is smooth, and the child will grow up smoothly.
The brazier in the middle of the yard occasionally made a crackling sound, which was the movement of the bamboo burning, and the night was getting darker, but when it was time for him, Lu Gu didn't sleep well. He opened his eyes after hearing the sound of the door. No blowing, it was Wei Lanxiang who came in.
"Mother." He whispered.
Wei Lanxiang waved his hand, motioning him to be quieter, and stood by the bed to look at their little brother, and then put a string of copper coins in his hand beside him.
Since she had two grandchildren, she would get up on New Year's Eve so that she could give the children money for the new year. Before she could leave, Ji Qiuyue also came in and also put down six copper coins.
Now that he was awake, Lu Gu didn't hesitate and planned to get up to give Zhao'er some lucky money, but was stopped by Ji Qiuyue.
"Second brother has just given it, you don't have to get up, it's late at night." Ji Qiuyue said softly with a smile.
The few of them were talking, Xiao Lingjun was not sleeping well tonight, and now he began to cry, Lu Gu hurriedly went to take pictures, seeing this, Wei Lanxiang and Ji Qiuyue went back to the room, the main room The two brothers, Shen Xuanqing and Shen Yaoqing, were drinking wine and chatting in a low voice. Now life is getting better and better, chickens, ducks and fish can be eaten by their families, and they can also entertain guests.
In the big house, six dogs are kept at home, and they are fed with meat and bones before returning to their hometown at night, so that they can have a good year.
Lu Gu coaxed the child to sleep again. After an unknown amount of time, he sensed movement in a daze. He opened his eyes and saw that Shen Xuanqing was sitting beside the bed. He rubbed his eyes and asked, "What time is it?"
"It's early, it's still dark, and it's cold outside, so I'd better sit on the bed to warm my legs and feet." Shen Xuanqing picked up the wick, then took off his shoes and went to bed. This is the case in previous years. It was really cold when I moved my feet, and I would go back to my room in the middle of the night.
Lu Gu glanced at the child, and he was sleeping soundly. Shen Xuanqing was about to keep his age, so when he woke up, he simply sat up to accompany him.
The two talked for a while, Shen Xuanqing looked at his husband by the candlelight, his handsome and tough appearance seemed to soften a little, he wanted to grab Lu Gu's hand, but because the child was sleeping in the middle of the bed was not easy to hold, so he whispered After saying a few words, Lu Gu moved the child to the bed.
The two of them were sitting on the head of the bed holding hands next to their shoulders, and their sweet emotions spread in their hearts.
