Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 436 Reunion for the New Year

Zhou Qinglan gave birth smoothly and her two girls are also very healthy.

Shao Minzhi asked Sheng Xiping to accompany Zhou Qinglan in the hospital, and she and Aunt Li went home to make some food for Zhou Qinglan.

"Sister-in-law, thank you. Qinglan is pregnant, and you have been busy with her.

It's already this time. Chen Feng and Chen Yue will be out of school soon, right? Otherwise, my sister-in-law should go home first, and there will be no one to take care of the two children at noon. "

How dare Sheng Xiping let Shao Minzhi follow him around? There are children and a home on the other side.

"It's okay. I called Ruiqing just now. He went home to cook for the children at noon today."

After moving to a new house, Chen Feng and Chen Yue also transferred to a nearby school. It was very close to home and there was no need for transportation. Chen Ruiqing only had to go home from get off work and cook.

"Just leave it alone and just take good care of Qinglan and the two children in the hospital. We will take care of the rest."

Shao Minzhi was also very quick in her words and actions. After saying these words, she turned around and walked out with Aunt Li.

"By the way, sister-in-law, I brought a lot of things from home, including things for the children and Qinglan's body supplements. They are all stored at the neighbor's house next door."

Sheng Xiping saw that he couldn't stop him and shouted quickly.

"I know, don't worry." Shao Minzhi responded and left in a hurry.

It was quite warm in the hospital ward. The two children were lying on the small bed covered with quilts. They neither cried nor fussed, and slept soundly.

Zhou Qinglan couldn't sleep, so she forced herself to close her eyes and rest.

A nurse came over to check the ward, so Sheng Xiping warmed his hands and helped Zhou Qinglan rub his belly to promote the recovery of the uterus.

So Sheng Xiping rubbed her belly while talking to her. After nagging, Zhou Qinglan really fell asleep.

Sheng Xiping brought two old hens that had been killed and frozen, a large piece of venison, and nourishing medicinal materials such as ginseng and gastrodia elata from home, all for Zhou Qinglan to nourish her body.

In addition, there are quilts, small quilts, pee mats, pee pads, etc. made by Zhang Shuzhen and Wang Chunxiu for the baby.

Didn't the doctor say before that she was probably pregnant with two children? Therefore, my mother-in-law and my mother-in-law were both prepared for fear that they would not be enough.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Qinglan actually gave birth to two children, and these things came in handy.

Shao Minzhi and Aunt Li cooked millet porridge for Zhou Qinglan, added brown sugar and jujubes, and boiled eggs. The first meal should not be too greasy, as it would easily block the milk.

Zhou Qingyue came home at noon and found that his sister was not there. After asking, he found out that while he was going to class, his sister gave birth to two girls.

Zhou Qingyue was so happy now that he casually dealt with a mouthful of food and went straight to the hospital with his meal.

"Sister, this is the meal prepared by Sister-in-law Chen and Aunt Li for you. Eat it while it's hot."

Zhou Qingyue stood at the door of the ward and handed the food in. He stood outside for a while and the air conditioning on his body dissipated before entering.

"I saw nothing happened to you this morning. Why are you giving birth during a class?"

After all, he was still young and didn't understand anything. Zhou Qingyue asked in confusion.

"Your sister gives birth quickly. Xinhua and Xinyu were like this at that time." Sheng Xiping said with a smile while feeding Zhou Qinglan.

Zhou Qinglan actually didn't have much of an appetite, but for the sake of her children, she still held on and ate all the eggs and millet porridge.

Zhou Qingyue took advantage of his sister's meal time and went over to see his niece.

"Oh, these two kids are so grown up." Zhou Qing was more embarrassed to say the next words.

In his eyes, this child is too ugly, right? His whole body was red and wrinkled, his eyelids were still swollen, and he looked like a hairless monkey.

Of course, he didn't dare to say this directly, for fear that his sister would hear it and jump up and beat him, so he only said half of it.

"You have never seen newborn babies, most of them are like this, mainly soaked in amniotic fluid.

When you open your eyes after a while, your little face will look much better when it opens up. "The more Zhou Qing didn't say anything, Sheng Xiping also knew what he was thinking, so he smiled.

Zhou Qingyue still didn't quite believe it, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only nod.

He had classes in the afternoon and it was almost the end of the semester. His homework was very tight, so he stayed in the hospital for a while and then went back to school.

When school was over in the afternoon, Chen Feng and Chen Yue insisted on visiting their little sister.

Chen Ruiqing couldn't resist the two children, so he led them here.

The two children didn't think the newborn baby was ugly at all. Instead, they found it extremely rare. However, the baby was too small and delicate. They didn't dare to touch it. They only dared to stand around and take a look.

In the evening, Shao Minzhi stewed pig's trotters with peanuts and Passepartout soup, and skimmed off the oil on the soup.

This soup is for promoting lactation. Zhou Qinglan drank two meals of the soup, and the milk came in the afternoon of the next day. Although it was not too much, it was enough for the two girls.

Zhou Qinglan gave birth naturally and did not need to be hospitalized for a long time. On the morning of the [-]th, she went through the procedures and was discharged.

The weather was extremely cold in December. Chen Ruiqing was afraid that Zhou Qinglan and her daughter would catch cold, so she specially arranged a jeep to come over.

Sheng Xiping and Zhou Qingyue each held a baby and supported Zhou Qinglan, who was wrapped tightly, and returned to the small courtyard where they lived.

After returning home, everything was settled. Sheng Xiping took care of his wife and children, Aunt Li washed clothes and cooked, and Zhou Qingyue rushed home as soon as there was no class to help chop wood, shovel coal, and light the fire.

There is a stove and a fire wall in the house, which are all very hot. In addition, three meals a day are cooked, and the kang is also very hot. The house is very warm, and neither adults nor children suffer.

Everyone was taking good care of her. Zhou Qinglan was resting well and had plenty of milk. In addition, the baby girl herself was a light eater, so the milk was enough for the baby, so there was no need to add milk powder.

The little ones looked the same every day. A week later, the two babies opened their eyes. Their black crystal-like eyes were pure and flawless, and their watery appearance was rare.

After a while, the little faces became fleshy, and the eyebrows gradually opened up. It was vaguely visible that the two children looked like Zhou Qinglan in many places, and they were definitely beauties.

Zhou Qinglan gave birth to a baby, and the school also learned the news. Many female classmates came to visit Zhou Qinglan and the two babies.

Many of the first batch of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination are already old and have families.

These people joked that they were planning to marry a baby in advance and that when the baby grows up, he will be their daughter-in-law.

Anyway, they were all harmless jokes, and everyone passed by laughing and joking.

Half a month after Zhou Qinglan gave birth to her baby, Zhou Mingyuan and Wang Chunxiu also came to the provincial capital.

Zhou Mingyuan came to the meeting because he had something to do, while Wang Chunxiu took a long leave and came to take care of his daughter during her confinement period.

"Xiping, you haven't been here for a short time. When your father finishes the meeting, you will go back with him.

Don't worry, I'm here. When Qinglan is out of confinement, Qingyue will also be on winter vacation, so we can go back together. "

Wang Chunxiu was afraid that Sheng Xiping would take too much leave and that the work unit would not be able to justify it, so he asked Sheng Xiping to go back and she would stay and take care of him.

It's true that Sheng Xiping has been out for a long time. During the winter production period, the processing plant has a lot of things to do, and it really can't be let go.

Wang Chunxiu and Aunt Li are taking care of it here, Zhou Qingyue is helping, and Shao Minzhi comes over from time to time, so there is really no need for Sheng Xiping to keep watch.

So, after Zhou Mingyuan finished the meeting, Sheng Xiping and his father-in-law went home in the bureau's jeep.

During the twenty days since Sheng Xiping left home, the processing factory had a backlog of orders and products.

Therefore, he was not idle after returning home. He was arranging production and shipping, keeping his feet busy.

Being so busy, time flew by very quickly. In the blink of an eye, in mid-January, Zhou Qinglan was also in confinement.

After four years of college graduation, she received her diploma and gave birth to two daughters. Zhou Qinglan can be considered a winner in life.

Of course, there are gains and losses.

Many of Zhou Qinglan’s classmates were left behind by some schools in the provincial capital.

In fact, Zhou Qinglan's performance in school was much better than these people. If she hadn't been pregnant and had a baby in her last year, she might have been the target of competition among high schools in the provincial capital.

Zhou Qinglan has no regrets about this. Her parents, husband and children are all in Songjianghe. How could she stay in the provincial capital by herself?

Although Songlin High School may not be as good as schools in the province, Zhou Qinglan is happy to use what she has learned to educate students in her hometown. In this way, she has lived up to the training given to her by the forestry farm and the forestry bureau.

Zhou Qinglan's job has been assigned to Songlin High School, but because she graduated in the winter, Songlin High School has already appointed teachers for each subject when the school starts in the fall.

It was also time for Zhou Qinglan to have a baby, so the school told her to wait until Zhou Qinglan went to school in March after the new year.

The New Year is celebrated early this year. New Year’s Eve is January [-]th, and many universities in the Northeast have a holiday very early.

When Sheng Xi'an learned that her sister-in-law had given birth to a pair of girls, she came to Changchun after the holidays and stayed here to wait.

Until Zhou Qinglan was out of confinement, everyone escorted Zhou Qinglan, mother and daughter home.

Zhou Qinglan has graduated, so naturally she will not continue to live in the courtyard here.

It happened that the Chinese New Year was coming soon, so Zhou Qinglan gave Aunt Li a sum of money, and also gave Aunt Li all the rice, flour, grain, oil and other things that could not be taken away from the courtyard.

After getting along for more than half a year, Aunt Li has a very good relationship with the Zhou Qinglan siblings. She has no children, so she loves the Zhou Qinglan siblings as if they were her own children.

Before parting, Aunt Li couldn't stop crying, and Zhou Qinglan was also very uncomfortable. She said that she would go to Lijiawa to visit Aunt Li again when she had the opportunity in the future.

On January [-], accompanied by her mother, brother, and brother-in-law, Zhou Qinglan took the train home with her two daughters in her arms.

Chen Ruiqing was worried that it would be inconvenient for Zhou Qinglan to take the train with his two girls, so he specially found someone to book a few sleeper berth tickets, which would be more spacious and convenient for them to take their children.

Departing in the afternoon of the [-]th, arriving in Hunjiang in the morning of the [-]th, and then taking a bus from Hunjiang to Songjiang River.

Sheng Xiping and Zhou Mingyuan received the news early and specially arranged a car to wait at the train station.

After the train whistled and entered the station, Zhou Mingyuan and Sheng Xiping got out of the car and rushed to the exit.

Just at this time, the passengers all got off the bus and walked out one after another. Sheng Xiping saw Zhou Qinglan and his party holding the child at a glance.

"Mom, Qinglan, Qingyue, this way." Sheng Xiping shouted loudly.

Sheng Xi'an and Zhou Qingyue also saw the people outside and hurriedly waved to Sheng Xiping, "Mom, sister, it's my dad and brother-in-law who are here to pick us up."

Wang Chunxiu and Zhou Qinglan were holding their children, while Sheng Xi'an and Zhou Qingyue were carrying a lot of luggage. The group left the station and met up with Sheng Xiping and the others.

"Hurry, get in the car, let's go home and talk. It's too cold today." January is the coldest time, and the wind hurts my face like a knife.

In this weather, stop nagging, get in the car and go home.

Zhou Mingyuan protected Wang Chunxiu and his daughter into the jeep and left first. Sheng Xiping, Sheng Xi'an, and Zhou Qingyue found a donkey cart and went to the new house on the corner building one after another.

The Zhou family's bungalow is small and cannot accommodate so many people. Moreover, the bungalow is not as warm as the building.

Knowing that Zhou Qinglan and the others were coming back, Zhou Mingyuan went to the new house several days in advance and burned a fire for several days to keep the house warm just so that his daughter and granddaughter could come back to live there.

After entering the door, there was a sense of warmth in the room. Wang Chunxiu and Zhou Qinglan hurriedly carried the child to the north bedroom.

The north room has a kang, which is a little bigger than the bed in the south bedroom. Besides, the child has both poop and pee, so it is more convenient to live on the kang.

The bed gets dirty easily, after all it is a wedding bed.

The kang in the north room is connected to the heating boiler, and there is also a set of radiators in the room, which is very warm.

"Quickly, unwrap the child quickly. Don't hold the child in." Wang Chunxiu put the child on the kang and quickly unwrapped the child.

Inside the quilt, the little baby, wearing a red cotton jacket and cotton trousers, was fast asleep. Her little face was rosy and round, and she was very cute.

"Oh, these two kids are so handsome, just like our Qinglan when she was little."

Zhou Mingyuan came closer and looked at the two granddaughters with joy. The more he looked at them, he felt that they were just like his daughter when she was a child.

"I didn't expect that we would have twins in our family. Look, these two children look exactly the same. How fun it is.

Why? Which of these two is the elder sister and which one is the younger sister? Can it be distinguished? "In Zhou Mingyuan's eyes, the two children are the same. How can they tell the difference?

"Oh, my sister has a birthmark on her shoulder, and my sister has one on her wrist."

Wang Chunxiu got on the kang, spread out a mattress and a changing mat, then put the two babies on it and covered them with a small quilt.

The little ones love to fall asleep in the car. The two children slept all the way, and opened their eyes one after another after being manipulated by their grandma.

His dark eyes rolled around several times, looking at the unfamiliar environment.

I don't know whether it was because they were not familiar with the place, or they were unhappy because they were woken up, but one of them puckered his lips and started crying.

Twins are difficult to coax, because if one of them cries, the other will cry too.

Sure enough, when she heard the cry, she was not happy either, she opened her mouth and started crying.

Wang Chunxiu and Zhou Qinglan calmly walked over to check the urine.

As a result, I saw that the diaper was getting wet little by little, and the baby woke up and was peeing.

Wang Chunxiu waited patiently for her granddaughter to finish peeing, and then took out the pantyhose.

"Qinglan, please quickly take out those quilts from your bag and put them on the kang to dry, otherwise they will be too cold."

I was just about to change the mattress for the child, then I remembered that the mattress and everything else were in the bag. It was so cold along the way. How could I put the mattress on the child directly? I quickly put it on the kang to warm it up.

There was just a large bag of diapers, milk powder, and bottles for the two children. Wang Chunxiu asked Zhou Mingyuan to hold this bag when they got on the bus.

At this time, he quickly took out the things from inside and put them on the hot kang to dry.

The two babies were not happy after urinating. They pursed their mouths and murmured. They were hungry and wanted to feed.

Zhou Qinglan hurriedly picked up one of them to feed, while Wang Chunxiu hurriedly went to make milk powder.

Zhou Qinglan's milk is enough for one feeding, but not enough for two. The first half of the confinement period is fine, but the baby has less snacks. Later, as the baby gets older and the demand increases, the milk is not enough.

So after Wang Chunxiu arrived in the provincial capital, he suggested mixed feeding to Zhou Qinglan.

With two children, Zhou Qinglan will still have to go to work after the new year, so it is impossible to breastfeed all the time, so feeding them with milk powder is inevitable.

It's better to start mixed feeding early, so that the child doesn't recognize only breast milk and not bottles and milk powder.

Just like that, one baby drinks breast milk and the other baby drinks milk powder. Now he doesn't cry or make trouble.

After the child finished feeding, Sheng Xiping, Sheng Xian and others also went upstairs and put everything in the small living room outside.

"Xiping, come on, let's heat up the food. Your mother and the others probably haven't had lunch yet."

Zhou Mingyuan greeted Sheng Xiping, and the two men went to the kitchen, heated up the food they had prepared in advance, served it, and invited Wang Chunxiu and the others to eat.

After the two children were full of milk, they changed their mattresses and lay on the kang, looking around.

Zhou Mingyuan took care of his granddaughter and sat on the edge of the kang, looking at the children with a loving smile on his face. From time to time, he would make oh-ah noises towards the two children to amuse them.

"These two girls are really good-looking. Fortunately, Qinglan had a good idea at that time and kept the child.

If it were up to you, where could such beautiful girls go? Zhou Mingyuan glanced at Sheng Xiping and said with a smile.

What can Sheng Xiping say? At this time, I could only giggle.

Today is the [-]rd of the twelfth lunar month, celebrating the New Year. It stands to reason that Sheng Xiping should take his wife and younger brother back to the forest farm to be with his parents.

But they were really tired from the long journey back, and it was difficult to find a car at this time, making it difficult to get back to the forest farm.

They can only listen to Zhou Mingyuan's arrangement and stay one night in Songjianghe to rest. Zhou Mingyuan will arrange a car to take them back tomorrow morning.

Xiaonian is also an important festival, no matter whether it is in the forest farm or on the Songjiang River, it cannot be fooled.

So Zhou Mingyuan prepared the ingredients for making dumplings in advance. After Wang Chunxiu and the others had a meal, Zhou Qinglan went back to the kang to rest, while the others set up tables and panels in the small living room outside and started making dumplings.

In the evening, everyone set off firecrackers here and ate dumplings together to celebrate the New Year.

After finishing the meal, the guys coaxed the baby for a while, and then Zhou Mingyuan and his son got up and went back to the bungalow.

Wang Chunxiu was left with Zhou Qinglan to help her take care of the child.

It's okay if the twins don't make trouble, but when they start to make trouble, both of them are in a hurry, let alone one person, and they can't take care of it at all.

At the Qianchuan Forest Farm, Sheng Liancheng, who was looking at the generator warehouse on the mountain, also came down. Sisters Sheng Yunfang, Sheng Yunfei, Sheng Xikang and Sheng Xitai also came home for the holidays.

Although there are still a few people missing in the family, Sheng Liancheng is still very happy to see his two daughters who have been away for half a year, and the family celebrates the New Year happily.

While eating dumplings, Sheng Yunfang couldn't help but muttered something.

"I don't know if my eldest brother and the others have picked up my sister-in-law, second brother, and little niece. My little niece is already one month old, and I haven't seen anything yet."

When mentioning her two granddaughters, Zhang Shuzhen also sighed. The provincial capital was far away, and the children were already one month old, but she had yet to meet them.

"I think I've received it. I think I'll be back tomorrow, don't worry."

Before Sheng Xiping went to Songjianghe, he had agreed with his family that he would be back as soon as possible after receiving his wife and children the next day at most.

"Come on, you guys should eat more and look at how thin you are all.

Eat more dumplings. I didn’t put many vegetables in today’s dumplings, they were all meat. "Zhang Shuzhen pushed the plate in front of the two girls and said with a distressed look on her face.

"When I heard about the food you eat at school, I felt that I couldn't feel full. It's all vegetables. What's the point? You should eat more meat."

The food in the south is light and there are many kinds of vegetables. Zhang Shuzhen felt heartbroken when she asked about what her daughter ate there.

If you eat vegetables all day long without eating any meat, look at how thin your children will become.
  The dumplings served tonight are indeed as Zhang Shuzhen said. There is only a small amount of cabbage in them, and meat accounts for a large proportion, so the filling of the dumplings is just meat and eggs, which is very fragrant.

Sheng Yunfang, Sheng Yunfei and the others were out of town, and they were really not used to the food there. After finally eating the dumplings made by their mother, they didn't worry about anything and just ate them.

"Don't talk about my sister and the others. I am close to home. Look at what I eat at school. After this semester, I have lost nearly ten pounds than before."

Sheng Xitai said vaguely while eating.

There is no winter vacation in high school. After the final exam in early January, there will be two days off, and then there will be vacation classes.

I took classes for ten days during the holidays and came back from the holiday yesterday afternoon.

Sheng Xitai's final grades were good. He was still first in the class, and moved up one grade to fifth. The class teacher was so happy that he even gave him a prize.

"Yes, you should eat more and eat well. In two days, our family will kill the pig, and the meat will be delicious."

Zhang Shuzhen pushed another plate to her old son to let him eat.

Everyone was satisfied with this meal of dumplings. After the meal, the family listened to the radio for a while, and then went to bed.

On the morning of the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, Zhou Mingyuan arranged a car to take Sheng Xiping's family back to the forest farm.

The news that the Sheng twins were back was like having wings. It didn't take half a day to spread throughout the forest farm.

The Sheng family was very lively now, and everyone with a good relationship came over to see the twins.

"Brother Sheng and sister Shuzhen are at home. Your eldest brother and I came over to see the two girls from the Xiping family."

On the morning of the [-]th, as soon as a group of people were sent away, Qin Qiuyan's movements were heard outside.

Hearing this, Sheng Xiping hurriedly went out to greet him. When he went out, he saw that his master Liu Changde, his wife Qin Qiuyan, and brothers Liu Yujiang and Liu Yuhe were all walking towards him with smiles on their faces.

"Master, Mistress, you can come as soon as you come. Why are you bringing these old things?" Sheng Xiping said as he stepped forward to greet me.

"You think they are for you? Come on, you are so beautiful, these are for Qinglan and the two girls.

Your wife, the girl I have been waiting for all my life, has finally arrived. Please leave me alone and stop talking nonsense here. "

Qin Qiuyan didn't care about that, she spat with a smile, carried her things and entered the house.

"You don't know, when your wife heard that your wife had given birth to two daughters, she was so happy that she didn't sleep for several nights.

No, as soon as she heard that the child was back, she hurried over to see the child after dinner this morning. She was so greedy that the girl was obsessed with it. "

Liu Changde approached Sheng Xiping and whispered.

When Sheng Xiping heard this, he couldn't help laughing. "Master, let's go inside and talk."
