Chapter 107: , renamed
A group of old friends drank, ate, and fought with each other. After a meal, Zhouzhou and Dumplings were tired when they returned, and were carried home by their father Lu Yan.
The days of the holidays passed quickly, and Lu Yan and his wife returned with their three children.
"Say goodbye to grandparents."
On the way back, the trains and ships were still changing. It was approaching the end of September, and it was a little cold in the morning and evening. There was an accident on the way back, and the little dumplings caught cold on the boat, and when they returned to the island, they began to have a fever.
"Mom...sick."
They haven't come back for a month, even if Huahua Mama helped to take care of the yard, there was a big typhoon a few days ago, and the vine shelf was blown down a lot, and now it is supported crookedly.
Qin Rou sighed, she couldn't care about other things, the most important thing was to take care of the little dumplings, she let Lu Yan pay attention to the situation of her brother Zhouzhou from time to time, for fear that the two children would infect each other.
"Don't let the dumplings pass the cold to Zhouzhou."
Children have the highest immune resistance and are most afraid of mutual infection.
Fortunately, only the younger brother had a fever, and the older brother was not sick.
Little dumpling's face was flushed red, Qin Rou took him to the base hospital, and the doctor prescribed a fever-reducing needle. When the doctor gave the injection, Qin Rou held the child and did not let him see the needle.
But this little guy is very alert in the face of danger, he only felt a cold in his butt, and struggled desperately: "No need for needles... woo..."
Being pressed and spanked.
"Mom is bad—"
The little guy was crying.
"Dear me, don't cry..." Qin Rou coaxed him softly for a long time, and Dumpling groaned and dropped the golden beans, and finally fell asleep in her mother's arms.
"My brother is good." Zhouzhou came to his brother's side, patted his back, and coaxed him softly. His brother's tone was very gentle. I didn't want to let Zhouzhou get too close to my brother.
But these two noisy little guys on weekdays have become brothers again, sticky and unwilling to leave each other.
Dumplings have a fever, and my brother Zhouzhou also feels unwell, but has no fever. The two brothers are vaguely feeling each other. Qin Rou asks Ye Mingxiu, who is also a twin, and Ye Mingxiu and She said: "There will be a little between the twins. When one person is in pain, the other will feel bored. I don't know if it's a coincidence or not. I can't tell..."
"Will there be between you and your sister?"
"I don't have a relationship with my sister, but I heard that other sisters have. I met a pair of twin sisters when I was studying."
"The probability of meeting twins is quite high." Qin Rou remembered that she was studying when she was a child, there were a pair of twin sisters in the surrounding neighborhood, and there was a pair of twin sisters in the class when she was in elementary school... But it's very strange , Many of the twin sisters she met were identical twin sisters, and she seldom saw identical twin brothers with her own eyes. She looked through her own memories and couldn't find them.
Ye Mingxiu smiled: "There are few identical twins, but there will be one or two."
"嘚嘚..." Little Dumpling's eyes are hazy with tears, whether it is an adult or a child, when a person is sick, it is easy to become particularly vulnerable, aggrieved, and wants to be taken care of and close to himself people coquettish.
"Eat more dumplings, get stronger, and don't get sick."
Zhou Zhou hugged him and touched his forehead like his mother did. It wasn't over yet, so he tried again with his forehead against Dumpling's forehead.
The little face that looks exactly like the dumplings is extraordinarily serious and serious, like a little adult who can take care of people.
The difference between the two brothers at this moment is very obvious, and outsiders can tell who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother.
"You two brothers have a really good relationship."
After being ill for a week, the little dumpling finally regained its vitality and watered the flowers in the yard with my brother.
Qin Rou smiled and reminded them: "Don't water too much, it will flood the flowers."
"It's been a long time since I went to kindergarten? Do you miss the kindergarten friends?"
Zhou Zhou and Dumpling shook their heads: "I don't want to."
"Why?"
"Want to play at home." Play freely at home.
"No, you still have to go to school with your little schoolbag on your back."
"Dundun from Mr. Huang's house next door, and Tiaotiao from Mother Huahua's family are also in kindergarten. You and Tiaotiaodundun go to kindergarten together."
When Qin Rou said these words, she suddenly felt that the two names, Tiaotiao and Dundun, together, sounded like jumping and squatting? Jump, squat, squat and jump, just like doing "little frog jumping".
Head Zhang and Political Commissar Liu are indeed good partners in the past, even the children's nicknames sounded very cooperative.
"The house next door is back?" Head Zhang asked Huang Xinying.
Huang Xinying nodded: "It can be considered that she is back, but it has only been a month's walk, but I feel that Xiao Qin and his children have been away for a long time, and they were really not used to it before."
"To be honest, I'm not very used to it. It's really strange that the neighbors don't see each other when they look up and look down. I haven't seen each other for a month or two."
"I saw his Zhouzhou dumplings playing in the yard again."
"I repainted a picture book of bitter gourd, and I haven't let the couple next door read it."
"Here, I also wrote a dialogue between bitter gourd and radish..."
Mr. Huang: “…”
Director Zhang frowned and looked at her: "The earthworms I drew are not very good-looking, but radishes and bitter gourds are simple. The dialogue between these two is very educational for children."
"Children can't be picky eaters, don't you think? Both radishes and bitter gourd..."
"Our family also bought a sewing machine to make a little dress for Dundun, how about we just sew a cute little radish?"
"If you want to embroider by yourself, I will never embroider." Mrs. Huang felt that she had to prepare lessons and change her homework. Why should she sew clothes for her children? A "small radish" in the chest.
Do something boring.
"I'll come when I come." By this year, Captain Zhang has gradually... gradually he has seen it.
He did the laundry outside the yard and went into the kitchen at home, can't he do anything else?
Quilt?
Huang Xinying thought he was joking: "Are you really going to step on the sewing machine?"
"I make clothes for our son."
Leader Zhang does not say anything else, he is really a man of action. When he talks about making clothes, he is absolutely unambiguous. He cuts the fabric and makes a small white and green dress for his child. , a chubby radish was sewn on the chest.
Don't say, Zhang Chengbei's craftsmanship is very good.
Huang Xinying saw the clothes made by her husband and had to admire him.
Zhang Chengbei was complacent and boasted: "Everyone has Zhouzhou dumplings, so why don't we have Dundun?"
"You see how big this radish is?"
"It's big, it's really big." Huang Xinying looked at the big radish on the chest of the child's clothes, she really didn't understand the stubbornness of her old Zhang, "Why did you get a big radish? It's like someone else's next door. Can't you be a cute fat fish?"
When she saw the big radish, Huang Xinying easily thought of her son's stinky fart after eating the radish.
"You woman, you don't understand, right? Don't you pay attention? If you sew a fish on it, wouldn't you become a follower and pick up people's teeth?"
"Our son Dundun is the most powerful, aren't the two brothers Zhouzhou Dumplings next door afraid of eating radishes? Our children print radishes. Scared me!"
Like countless parents who hope that their children will win at the starting line, Zhang Chengbei also hopes that his children will surpass their peers in every aspect.
This is the obsession of parents.
Otherwise he would not name his eldest son Zhang Yichao.
When the head of Zhang was stepping on the sewing machine at home, his son Dundun stood by his father's side to watch him make clothes for himself. After finishing, the head of Zhang kissed his son, "Look Is your dad treating you well? Make clothes for you by yourself."
"Mmmm." Dundun nodded.
Director Zhang's painting skills have been gradually developed. Before, he painted a picture book of earthworms and a picture book of dialogue between bitter gourd and radish. I sewed two or three sets of radish short sleeves for my children.
"Yichao, do you want dad to make clothes for you?"
"No." Zhang Yichao at this age is ashamed, he doesn't want to wear the big radish clothes made by his father.
"Don't forget it."
Toothed small shark, Dundun in Mr. Huang's house is a big radish.
Zhou Zhou and Dumpling stared at the radish in front of Dun Dun's clothes: "…"
I don't understand why you have to sew a radish on your body?
"Mr. Huang, did you make the clothes in your family? It's very delicate."
Huang Xinying nodded and smiled without any guilt, and did not explain much.
"Our children love to eat radishes, so they sewed a radish. The radish is also simpler."
Dundun looked at the fish on the chests of other children and felt out of place, "Mom, I want fish..."
Mr. Huang: "..." But your dad just wants to sew radishes for you.
Not only Dundun felt out of place, but Wang Niannian, who was brought by Xue Xiaohui, also felt out of place. The other children had "flowers" on their chests, but she didn't.
Wang Niannian raised his hand and rubbed the clothes on his chest, then looked up at his mother: "Mom, radish..."
She is afraid of fish and likes radishes.
"Okay, mom will sew a radish for you when you go back."
After finding that other children like their big radishes, Dundun will stop making trouble, and radishes will be radishes.
Five children, three boys and two girls, go to kindergarten together.
In October 1975, Zhao Jianghong and Ye Mingxiu moved into the family home. Within a month, Ye Mingxiu also found out that she was pregnant. a child.
Zhao Jianghong: “…”
He breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the good fortune of the old Lu family had indeed been touched.
Ye Mingxiu did not go out to work after she became pregnant, but temporarily settled in the family's yard to take care of the yard. Qin Rou suggested that she read more books and asked her to buy a set "One Hundred Thousand Whys".
"When the children first understand some truth, they like to ask why. You can read more in advance and deal with the little ones later."
Qin Rou didn't know if Ye Mingxiu participated in the college entrance examination or not, but she still recommended books to her. Now I will make a foundation in advance and wait for the news of the college entrance examination to be released. Follow the flow to review the basics of physics and chemistry. Get a good grade.
"Okay, I'll definitely take a look at it." Thinking of answering questions for future children, Ye Mingxiu reads books very seriously, writing every day, copying poetry and love letters, etc. s things.
Even if she gets married, she and Zhao Jianghong still keep the habit of correspondence. Zhao Jianghong doesn't come back often, and Ye Mingxiu spends more time hanging out with the sisters-in-law around her.
In January 1976, the climate of Qiongzhou Island in January was exceptionally comfortable, neither too cold nor too hot. A batch can be harvested before.
Passion fruit is a particularly domineering plant. They grow and spread on pergola fences recklessly. Now they bloom and are about to bear fruit.
The roses on the side of the swing are blooming, and Zhouzhou and Dumpling are sitting on the small swing.
"Mom, Ladder..."
Zhouzhou and Dumpling like to play slides in the kindergarten, but there are many older children occupying the slides and swings in the kindergarten. They should have taken turns to play the slides, but some unreasonable children occupy the How can I not come down on the slide.
"Mom, it's too much!"
"Grab the slide."
When they got home, Zhouzhou and Dumpling complained to their mother.
There are few public slides and swings in the school, and it takes a long time to play by yourself.
Qin Rou just wanted to make a simple wooden slide for the two children at home, which is shorter and safer than the school slide. Over the past few years, she and Lu Yan and his wife The woodworking skills of the two improved rapidly, and the two made a detachable wooden folding slide for the two little cubs.
When the adults are at home, they open the slides on the lawn and let the two little cubs climb and play.
The slides in their house are liked by many children. Zhang Dundun of Zhang’s house next door, Liu Tiaotiao of Liu’s house and Wang Niannian of Wang’s house all come to their yard to play the slides .
The age difference of these five little guys is not big, the oldest is Zhouzhou, the youngest is Wang Niannian, Zhouzhou is only one year older than Wang Niannian, five little boys, three boys and two girls, at present All squat.
Zhouzhou and Dumplings are a little taller, followed by Jumping, then Dundun, and the shortest is Wang Niannian.
Qin Rou asked them to line up to count the number and play the slide in turn.
"Start from Zhouzhou and report your name to me."
"I'm Lu Zhouzhou."
"Lu Dumpling."
"Zhang Dundun."
"Liu jump jump."
"Wang Niannian..."
After reporting the name, Little Dumpling found that he was the only outlier, he pointed to himself: "Mom, why am I not Lu Jiaojiao?"
Compared with other people's abb's name format, he is too special, Xiao Dumpling thinks it doesn't sound good.
"I want to be called Lu Jiaojiao." When playing with a group of friends, I was most afraid of becoming an alien, and Xiaojiaozi decided to change his name.
Zhouzhou dumpling dumplings piers and piers... Sounds neat and tidy.
Liu jumped happily and said, "Dumplings, feet and feet haha..."
She sat on the small lawn, rubbed her feet, and pointed with her little black hand: "Hey, land feet."
"You are little feet."
Little Dumpling was not happy when she saw this, "I am Dumpling!"
"Mom, I don't want to be called Lujiaojiao, I'm a dumpling!"
Qin Rou: “…”
Several children gathered to play together, Liu Tiaotiao was the most cheerful and most talkative, she took the initiative to say to several children around: "I am Huahuamama's daughter, I am Huaduoduo , the flowers are gorgeous, the blossoms are gorgeous."
As a little girl, she likes that her name is like a flower, with bright colors and beautiful flowers.
Liu Tiaotiao's real name is actually Liu Yaoyao. , this time there is no shortage of soil.
"Call me Flower!"
Okay, the other children didn't have any opinion, they all called her "Flower Duo".
Wang Niannian listened, a little envious, and said very shyly: "I want to call Hua Yanyan."
Children Wang Niannian is different from other children, her nickname is her big name, so she is called Wang Niannian.
Qin Rou: “…”
One flower, one flower Yanyan, the little girl's wish is so simple, compared to the Zixuan Zixuan Zixuan her parents took, they want to be called Duoduo and Yanyan.
To learn that someone changed her name with her, the dancing children were very happy, she said to Wang Niannian: "Hello, Hua Yanyan."
"Flowers."
Zhang Dundun saw the interaction between the two of them, and he was busy saying: "Then I won't be called Dundun, I'm Daqiang!"
"You call me Zhang Daqiang."
This time, Qin Rou almost choked on her own saliva. After Zhang Daqiang finished speaking, several other children looked at him.
Little Dumpling blinked, thinking that he changed his name to Daqiang, it would be the same as his dumplings, not in abb format, he had a companion, so Little Dumpling called him happily : "Zhang Daqiang!"
Dumpling called Daqiang, brother Zhouzhou followed and called him Daqiang, and the other two little girls also obeyed the public, "Daqiang is good."
"I'm a strong man!" Zhang Dundun's little boy puffed out his chest with pride.
name, so that they sound like brothers and have a good meaning.
Zhang Chengbei thought of several names, the eldest son was called Yichao, and the second son could be called "Daqiang", both sounded very powerful, but Mr. Huang refused to name his son Zhang Daqiang.
So the two of them thought about it, so they named their son Zhang Erheng, Yichao, Erheng, and the second child was modest and balanced.
But when Dundun children are competing for strength, he feels that it is more powerful when they are called "big strength".
Great, it sounds great!
Same as my brother Yichao.
"Great!"
Now that there are flowers, Yanyan flowers, and Zhang Daqiang, Qin Rou is curious whether her two sons will follow suit?
The herd effect, will these two little cubs also change their names from the crowd.
Qin Rou was very worried that they would tell her, "Mom, I want to be called Cao Shuaishuai." "I'm Cao Junjun."
…
Hahaha…
It's just a pity that Qin Rou doesn't have a camera by her side at the moment, or else she will record the images of the children in front of her and show them to them after twenty years.
"Mom..." Little Dumpling called her.
Qin Rou smiled and said, "Why, Xiao Dumpling also wants to change his name?"
Dumplings are ambitious: "I want to be a boat!"
Zhou Zhou said: "I am Dumpling."
Qin Rou: "Alright, alright, let's play with you."
The two children seem to be growing taller than before.
"Come on, the beautiful and powerful Zhouzhou dumplings are lined up in a row, let me take a picture for you!"
The five little guys are arranged from tall to short, a total of three fish and two radishes.
Qin Rou looked at the row of little guys and laughed so hard that she lost her eyes.
She went to get a camera to take pictures of them, and she planned to write on the back of the photo after the photo was developed:
January 1976, Lu Zhouzhou, Lu Jiaozi, Zhang Daqiang, Liu Duoduo, Wang Yanyan.
