Fang Nuo didn't know when Shen Gongqi came back at night. Anyway, when he woke up the next day, he saw him sleeping next to him.
She thought about this man staying up late last night, so she got up very lightly.
I got up and got off the kang and put on my clothes. I mustered up the courage to leave the house and went to the kitchen to take a look. I don't know who got up early and had already heated the hot water.
After fetching water and washing up, she started preparing breakfast. For today's breakfast, she was going to cook some glutinous rice balls.
I scooped some glutinous rice flour and let it wake up for a while. Then I went to get the sesame flour I brought back two days ago. Add some sugar and stir evenly. Then add some water and stir evenly. It doesn’t need to be very thin. It just needs to be pinched without falling apart. .
Then start to roll the glutinous rice balls, wait until everyone gets up, then cook them until they float on the water, then take them out and start eating.
In the morning, the whole family had sweet sesame-filled glutinous rice balls, and Yaya liked them very much.
Yaya: "Mom, these glutinous rice balls are so sweet and delicious. Can Yaya still eat them in the future?"
Fang Nuo: "If you like it, I'll make some glutinous rice flour for you when you get back."
Yaya: "Yeah, then next time I bring Brother Goudan to my house, can mom do it for us once?"
Yaya knew that the glutinous rice flour her mother mentioned was not cheap, but she still wanted to share it with her friends. She thought that after they returned to the village, she would ask her mother to make some and she would share it with her friends.
Fang Nuo: "Okay, eat quickly. Eat well. Mom will take you out to buy things. This year our family will go out for a walk. We will buy clothes for grandpa and grandpa."
Grandma Fang on the side heard this and said: "Xiao Nuo, your grandfather and the others all have clothes to wear. You just bought a house and you still have some money left to spend back."
Fang Nuo: "Don't worry, grandma, I still have money. I'm thinking that we will go back in a few days, and we won't meet again until the end of this year, so I will buy you some clothes to wear first. If there is still money here, If you are missing anything, just write to us and we will send it to you then.”
Grandma Fang: "Now that we have bought a house, we just need to move in. If there is anything we need, your dad and the others will take care of it. Your grandpa and I are getting older now, so we will stay at home and wait for the blessings." .
You and Gong Qi can live a good life with their children when they go back, don’t worry about us, we are waiting for you to come back and reunite.”
Fang Nuo: "Well, I understand, grandma, and I won't keep you waiting too long."
Grandpa Fang: "We are not in a hurry. You can take your time and come back for a reunion during the Chinese New Year."
Shen Gongqi: "Grandpa, don't worry, I will come back with Xiao Nuo and the children when I take my vacation."
Father Fang: "Okay, let's all go out for a walk later. Let's also buy something for the two children. I didn't have the chance to buy it before. The children are so old, so they should make up for it."
Fang Nuo: "Then let's all go out together and buy everything. Dad, you can't just ignore your daughter when you have grandchildren."
Father Fang: "Okay, okay, I'll buy it for my daughter too, no one will be left behind."
After the family had breakfast, they all went out to go shopping.
They all had lunch at a state-owned restaurant outside. They continued shopping in the afternoon and bought a lot of things for everyone.
The family went out from time to time in the next few days, and Fang Nuo and the others prepared some specialties for their friends back home to take back.
After passing through the West like this, it was time for their family to leave the capital.
Father Fang and Uncle Fang sent them to the train station that day. Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang also wanted to see them off, but Fang Nuo thought they were old and it was too cold outside, so they advised them to stay at home.
Several people took the things they wanted to take back, called a car and took them to the train station.
At the train station, Father Fang kept telling Shen Gongqi not to sleep too much on the way, to take good care of his wife and children, and to send a telegram back when he arrived.
The train pulled into the station not long after a few people arrived at the train station, and then they followed the crowd and got on the train.
They found someone to buy sleeper tickets this time. Father Fang put them on the train, put their luggage before getting off, and then waited outside their car window until the train left before they went back.
Back home, Grandma Fang watched the two people come back and said, "As soon as Xiaonuo and the others left, the house became deserted. I don't know how long it will be before we meet again."
"Mom, Xiao Nuo said, even if the college entrance examination is not resumed this year, they will come again during the Chinese New Year. Just be happy," Father Fang comforted
"Well, I'm just a little bit reluctant to leave after they leave. It will be fine in two days. You and your brother will go about your business, and your dad and I can take care of ourselves at home," Grandma Fang said.
"That's good, we have a day off today, and the workers who are repairing the house will start working tomorrow. Then my little brother and I will go over to watch the work, and we can also help and learn something. In the future, our yard can Do it yourself.
When you and my dad are at home, remember to eat three meals a day. When the weather gets warmer, you can also go out and walk around. If you need anything at home during this period, just tell me or my little brother," Dad Fang said
"Okay, I know everything"
On Fang Nuo's side, Yaya and Xiaoer started to sleep not long after they got on the train.
She and Shen Gongqi just alternated, but most of the time Shen Gongqi was awake and protecting them, but she couldn't bear to let this man stay up without rest, so during the day, she forced him to go to bed and lie down for a while.
It was another two days and one night train journey. They arrived at the county railway station early in the morning two days later before dawn.
After getting off the train, Yaya and the waiter were still awake. They were carried on their backs and carried their luggage back home.
After returning home, they first put the child to sleep on the kang in the front room. The two of them went to the kitchen to boil water, cleaned Li Li, and soon after the kang was put on, the room became warm.
They spread the mattress and put the two children in to sleep. They also fetched water and washed themselves. Then they closed the door and went to sleep on the kang.
When Fang Nuo woke up, Shen Gongqi was still sleeping. Thinking that he had not rested for a few hours on the train in the past two days, Fang Nuo took it easy so as not to wake anyone up.
After going to the kitchen to boil a pot of hot water, Fang Nuo began to clean the outhouse, boiled the hot water, and filled two thermos bottles.
It was already past one o'clock in the afternoon. Yaya woke up and heard a sound outside the house, so she shouted twice.
When Fang Nuo heard that she came into the house and saw that she was awake, he pointed his finger to his mouth and made a 'shh' gesture, then hugged her, took her clothes and went to the outhouse.
After putting on Yaya's clothes and shoes, Fang Nuocai asked: "Are you hungry, Yaya? What do you want to eat? Mom will cook it for you."
"Well, I will eat whatever mommy does," Yaya said.
"Okay, I'll pour you some water first. You brush your teeth. I'll boil the water and cook some noodles later." Fang Nuo said, carrying her to the ground and standing up.
