Jiang Qin was speechless.
Sister Duan said to Song Zhaodi, "Let's not care whether she is sensible or not." Then she turned to Jiang Qin, "Zhaodi and Jianguo are usually tired enough to raise two or five children. Song can't go to school anymore."
"It's me who didn't think well." Jiang Qin felt that all women wanted to have a child of their own, and Song Zhaodi probably couldn't do it if she didn't. She also said that, she was just rubbing salt on Song Zhaodi's wound. "I'm sorry, Xiao Song."
Song Zhaodi said with a smile: "You are also good for me."
Song Zhaodi: "The old lady of the Shen family is a reasonable person."
The next morning, Song Zhaodi sat under the eaves to mend Sanwa's clothes, and saw Shen Xuancheng come out with a bag. With a shudder in her heart, Song Zhaodi put down the sewing box and went out, and saw Mother Shen talking to her granddaughter Shen Ying. The little girl burst into tears.
Song Zhaodi wanted to pretend she didn't see it, but when she thought of the old lady's coconut milk candy and Kudingcha, she asked, "Auntie, are you leaving?"
The child wiped his tears: "Can grandma not go?"
"Grandma's home is in Hainan, so I have to go back and have a look." Mother Shen looked at Shen Xuancheng and said.
Shen Xuancheng lowered his head.
Mother Shen was very disappointed.
Song Zhaodi wanted to scold Shen Xuancheng when she saw this scene. But she didn't say anything, turned around and went to pick four cucumbers and three red tomatoes in the vegetable field. When Shen's mother got in the car, Song Zhaodi ran out: "Auntie, save it for the road. I heard that Hainan is quite far from here. Far."
"Thank you." There were also cucumbers and tomatoes in the Shen family yard, but Mrs. Shen forgot to pick them, but her daughter-in-law Sun Wanru didn't think of it either. The old lady Shen couldn't help sighing, "Mr. Song, you are a good person."
Song Zhaodi waved her hand: "I'm not a good person, just an ordinary person who is neither good nor too bad. Auntie, you have a good journey."
"Thank you, Teacher Song." Mother Shen waved her hand.
Shen Xuancheng turned the car around and went straight to the pier.
Song Zhaodi took a deep breath of car exhaust, sighed in relief, and turned to go home.
"Xiao Song, come here."
Song Zhaodi followed the sound, and Sister Duan was waving at her: "Is something wrong?"
Sister-in-law Duan subconsciously glanced to the west and saw that Sun Wanru and her two children had returned to the house, and asked in a low voice, "Why did the old lady of the Shen family suddenly leave?"
Pay attention to the movements of the Shen family."
Sister Duan: "Don't you know Xiao Zhong?"
"He came back a little late yesterday, I forgot to mention." Song Zhaodi said, "their masters are together, and sometimes I can't speak at all."
Sister Duan opened her mouth to say something, and saw that there were five and a half more children in the Zhong's courtyard: "What are the five children of your family doing with the baskets on their backs?"
Song Zhaodi turned around and said, "either go to the mountain to dig wild vegetables, or go to the sea to pick up conch shells. My parents' house is near the sea. When they were in Xiaosong Village, they would go with Dali together every three days. The seaside. I've made stir-fried conch for them a few times, and I think they still want to eat them."
"Then did you tell them not to take a bath?" Sister Duan asked quickly.
Song Zhaodi: "I said so. Self-reliance will look at them."
Sister-in-law Duan looked at Zili: "Zili and rejuvenation have only come to your house for a few years. In the blink of an eye, you've grown up. You'll be a mother-in-law in a few years."
"It's early." Song Zhaodi said, "It may be because there are many children in the family. Self-reliance, rebirth, and the older baby are precocious in other aspects, and their mentality is similar to that of the third baby."
Sister Duan thought about it carefully: "Indeed. Is the eldest child eleven years old? He still plays around with a litter of children all day long. He looks like this. won't grow up."
"Your family Liu Wei has not come back since he left, so it's time to come back and have a look." Song Zhaodi suddenly thought.
Sister Duan: "I wrote a few days ago, saying that I can come back at the end of October. However, I can only stay at home for two days."
"Two days is fine." Song Zhaodi said, "Go back and call Liu Ping and Xiaojin over, and your family will get together. When they leave, you have to talk to Liu Wei and choose When my daughter-in-law opens her eyes, she can't imitate her sister or Shen Xuancheng. Otherwise, you and Uncle Liu will suffer. You are only one son."
Sister Duan sighed: "I understand. By the way, did the old lady of the Shen family say when she would come back when she left? "
"No." Song Zhaodi said, "I don't think I will come back. I'm over sixty years old, and I won't be able to take a car if I want to come here."
Sister Duan shook her head: "The old lady is in good health. If she doesn't get seriously ill, she can take a car at the age of 80."
"Don't talk about her." Song Zhaodi said, "We will pretend not to see the Shen family in the future."
Sister Duan: "I have always been like this. You are curious about the Shen family."
"Yes, yes." Song Zhaodi laughed, "I brought it upon myself to be targeted by Sun Wanru."
Sister Duan couldn't help laughing: "Go home, your door is not closed."
"Those little kids may have seen me here." Before the clothes were mended, Song Zhaodi didn't talk to Sister Duan again.
When Shen's mother was there, she would go to the non-staple food factory to buy some fish and shrimp in the morning, clean the chicken coop and duck ring in the morning, and clean up the vegetable field in the afternoon. As for whether to cook or not, Song Zhaodi does not know, and has no way of knowing.
After Mother Shen left, Sun Wanru had to clean up whether it was grocery shopping, chicken coops, duck pens, and vegetable fields. Song Zhaodi felt that within three days at most, Sun Wanru would talk to Shen Xuancheng. However, she still looked up at Sun Wanru.
In the evening the next day after the old lady left, the Zhong family of seven sat under the magnolia tree for dinner, eating and chatting as usual.
Sudden cries interrupted Song Zhaodi's words, Song Zhaodi followed the voice and looked over and said to Zhong Jianguo, "It's the Shen family."
"The cry of the second Shen family?" Zhong Jianguo asked.
Song Zhaodi nodded: "Shen Ying is sensible, and crying is also silent tears."
"Leave her alone." Zhong Jianguo said, "Shen Xuancheng is at home, the child's mother—" Seeing Shen Xuancheng running out of the house with the child in his arms, he couldn't help standing up, "What happened?"
Song Zhaodi got up and saw Shen Xuancheng carrying the child to the west, thinking about it: "It should be going to the hospital."
"Sick?" Zhong Jianguo's voice fell, and he saw Sun Wanru pulling Shen Ying out, locked the door and followed, "Looks like he's really sick."
Song Zhaodi sighed: "Seeing the child like this, I really shouldn't provoke that day."
"Provocation?" Zhong Jianguo frowned slightly, "Song Zhaodi, what are you doing behind my back?"
Big baby: "Dad, I know, it's spread all over the island these days." Then he talked about Song Zhaodi's quarrel with Sun Wanru and provoking the relationship between the Shen family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Zhong Jianguo opened his mouth and couldn't believe it: "I asked you why Shen Xuancheng suddenly left, and you told me that the old lady is homesick and wants to go back to see? Song Zhaodi, say this. When your face is not red and your heart is not beating, why is your psychological quality so good?"
"The old lady has been away from home for more than a year, and she is really homesick." Song Zhaodi said, "It's the truth." Glancing at him, "Are you holding an injustice for Sun Wanru?"
Zhong Jianguo glared at her: "Don't talk nonsense. You know that's not what I meant."
"Then there is no other meaning." Song Zhaodi said, "Eat, eat. The Shen family's affairs have just begun, and it will be more lively than the Lin family in the future."
Two days later, in the evening, Zhong Jianguo came back and told Song Zhaodi that Shen Xuancheng would go to sea tomorrow.
Song Zhaodi was amused: "What is a house leak and it rains overnight, and that's it." After speaking, she looked at Zhong Jianguo suddenly, "It's not your ghost, is it?"
"I think too much." Zhong Jianguo said, "I'm not so capable yet, so I decide which group to arrange to go out."
Song Zhaodi looked at him for a while: "The immediate boss is your uncle, and the big boss is very optimistic about you. If you give an opinion on such trivial matters as going out to sea, they will definitely accept it. Anyway, this time it is Shen Tuan. Chang, next time it's you or Ma Zhonghua, this time it's you, next time it's Head Shen, it's no different to Master Liu if you go early or go late."
"I said you thought too much, but you thought too much." Zhong Jianguo said, "I wouldn't have told you if I had known."
Song Zhaodi smiled and said, "Then I will pretend I don't know."
Zhong Jianguo snorted and asked, "What's for dinner?"
"It's almost the end of the month, let's add a meal for you." Song Zhaodi said, "Fry two green vegetables and make a fried eggplant box."
Zhong Jianguo saw her still sitting in the chair: "Are you done?"
"I haven't done it yet." Song Zhaodi said, "The stove is cooking porridge, and your five sons are cooking vegetables. I'll make them when they are ready."
Zhong Jianguo frowned: "You are fine at home all day, don't let your children cook every day."
"Don't worry, you won't be tiring them." Song Zhaodi said, "In the morning, it is self-reliance, at noon it is rebirth, and at night it is a big baby. Tomorrow morning, it will be a second baby, and I will do it at noon and night tomorrow. ."
Zhong Jianguo: "What is Sanwa doing?"
"Three children set the fire." Song Zhaodi glanced at the kitchen, "Holding a big fan in one hand and stuffing firewood in the other, the fire in the stove is as big as the wind outside the stove. Kill him. Don't let him fan, he screams that the fire is too hot."
Zhong Jianguo also sat down: "Then don't let him burn."
"Sanwa thinks it's fun to jump around with his four older brothers." Song Zhaodi said, "I've been obsessed with burning fire these days."
Zhong Jianguo sighed: "Tell you a serious matter, the South China Sea Fleet has begun to prepare for war."
"What do you mean?" Song Zhaodi couldn't help sitting upright.
Zhong Jianguo: "South Vietnam is very rampant in the South China Sea. If they provoke again, they will definitely fight."
"Are you going to support?" Song Zhaodi asked quickly.
Zhong Jianguo shook his head: "I don't know either. I told you in advance that I wanted you to be mentally prepared. Don't tell me to go to the South China Sea when you think I'm deliberately hiding it from you."
"You mean that once you want support here, the army will send you a regiment?" Song Zhaodi asked.
Zhong Jianguo nodded: "I came back a few days early and late, but I have been practicing all the time. Captain Shen went out this time, because he was afraid that the other side would make a sneak attack."
