Chapter 019: Selfless Dedication
Mobile reading
At around ten o'clock in the evening, Tian Tian was suddenly awakened by the knock on the door outside the door. Pinshu.com
In a hazy sleepy eye, she opened the door and saw her father standing outside the door.
In order to see more clearly, Tian Tian couldn't help but blink his eyes vigorously.
I saw that her father anxiously handed her mobile phone and said that it was her uncle calling.
Listening to her husband's call, Tian Tian immediately became energetic and sleepy.
So, she happily took the phone and hurriedly put it next to her ear.
Seeing his father leaving, Tian Tian closed the door and said the phone with a smile.
"Hey, husband!"
"Hey, wife, are you asleep?"
"Well, I went to bed before nine o'clock. What time do you get home?
"It went well. I just arrived. I'm not afraid you'll call you right away?"
"Thank you! It must have been hard to drive for so long, right?"
"It's okay. β
"Did Xiaoyu Xiaoxue sleep?"
"Do you want me to be honest?"
"Of course. Do I want to hear nonsense?"
"Truth be told, they haven't slept yet, they're crying upstairs!"
"Huh, it's so late, you haven't slept yet, so what should I do?"
"Look, wife, I'm afraid you're in a hurry. I was going to tell you a white lie. I don't know, the nanny aunt said that Xiaoyu Xiaoxue doesn't like to drink milk, as soon as their mouths touch the pacifier, they immediately twist their heads to the side, and then, wow wow cry. β
"Huh?"
"There was no choice but to wait for them to cry and get tired of crying, and then they went to sleep, and when they were so hungry that they had to drink something. β
"This, this is too pitiful!"
"Yes, I also think the babies are so pitiful, but what can I do? My mother said that every child is weaned like this, it takes a process, and it will be good to live a while. β
At this time, Tian Tian's heart was like a knife, she really couldn't bear the fact that the babies were now enduring the torment of hunger.
"It's fine. You don't have to worry too much about the kids. I'm sure they'll be getting to the milk powder slowly. Okay, Tian Tian, you go to sleep first! I want to go upstairs to appease the little guy. Well, I'll call you in a few days. β
"Hmm. Good night!"
"Good night!"
Hanging up the phone, Tian Tian's heart was sour.
I thought: weaning, what a sin for the children!
However, having said that, Tian Tian herself is not easy, she has not breastfed for three days, her breasts are swollen like watermelons, and all kinds of discomfort make her miserable.
The next day, Tian Tian told her mother about the compassion of the child's weaning, and said that she wanted to go back.
However, the mother told her: "It is normal for a weaned child to cry within a week, sometimes, all night long, so in those days, the child does not sleep well, and the adult does not have to sleep; However, after a week, he got used to eating milk, and that was fine. Every child has to go through such a pitiful period when weaning.
"Didn't you brothers and sisters come here like this? When the child is weaned, it cannot be with the mother. Because, as soon as she hears crying, her mother will be unbearable, and she will can't help but feed him, so that it is easy to give up all your efforts, and finally lead to weaning failure again and again. So, Tian Tian, you must be ruthless. β
"However, Xiaoyu and Xiaoxue are pitiful!"
"It's fine. Only after weaning, will they gradually learn to eat some soup, steamed eggs and other complementary foods to meet the nutrients needed by their growing bodies. And if they continue to eat only their mother's milk, the nutrition of the milk is far from enough. So, if you are too soft-hearted at this time, in fact, you are not loving them, but hurting them. Tian Tian, when you come back this time, you can live at home for a while! Anyway, we haven't talked together for a long time. From now on, I'll cook you some of your favorite meals every day. β
After speaking, my mother smiled silly.
"Grandma, I like to eat your food the most. Really, I even think it's better than the food in the five-star restaurant. β
Tian Tian hugged her mother's neck and touted coquettishly.
"Look at you, pure nonsense!"
After breakfast, my mother went to work in the vegetable garden with her farm tools.
Tian Tian, who came back from washing clothes in the creek, didn't see her mother's shadow, and after drying her clothes, she looked for them everywhere.
Finally, in front of a vegetable garden, she finally saw her mother through the fence wall.
So, Tian Tian also cautiously opened the fence door and walked in.
It turned out that my mother was growing garlic.
In the vegetable garden, a neat bunch of vegetables is lush.
Eggplant seedlings and pepper seedlings have only grown a foot long, and they are green, and loofahs and bitter gourds are also vying to grow upwards.
The pea seedlings bloomed with small purple flowers, and the flowers were so beautiful, like beautiful purple butterflies resting on the pea vines.
If you look closely, there is still a petal of peas hanging on the vine.
Tian Tian passed by a lush mille-feuille pagoda, and couldn't help but pick a leaf and crush it and put it on his nose to sniff, and in an instant, the fragrance overflowed. She especially liked the pungent fragrance of the mille-feuille tower.
The pumpkin bloomed, yellow and yellow, like a beautiful little trumpet, and butterflies or bees were parked in the corolla from time to time.
A row of corn was planted on the north side, but unfortunately, it was still a corn seedling, and there was no time to produce a bulging beard and flowing corn cobs.
There is a small pond on the south side, which is mainly used to facilitate the irrigation of the entire vegetable garden. Of course, there are also a few grass carp and bright red carp that jump out of the murky water from time to time.
There is a newly built bamboo trellis above, and fluffy winter melon vines climb on the shelves. Grandma once said that winter melon loves beauty, and it likes to look in the mirror.
In the corner by the pond, there is a lush hibiscus tree, which was given to her by a good female classmate when Tian Tian was in the fourth grade of primary school.
I remember that when she just inserted it that year, it was just a hibiscus branch as long as chopsticks, I really didn't expect that in a flash, it would be so tall and big!
It's a pity that the flowering period hasn't arrived, otherwise I don't know how beautiful it is!
Hibiscus flowers are rare flowers that change three times a day, and the flowers are different in color due to different times, or white as snow, or pink as sunset, or red as fire, or pink and white.
When the hibiscus blooms in my memory, the flowers are clustered and layered, which is so spectacular and beautiful. Moreover, its corolla is large, some as large as a small bowl, or even larger.
Hibiscus flowers can be boiled in soup and drunk, slippery.
"Eh, Grandma, where's the mulberry tree over here?"
Tian Tian suddenly found that the mulberry tree that used to be was gone, and couldn't help asking.
"I cut it down, and I don't raise silkworms anymore, what do you want it for?"
"Huh?"
After hearing this, Tian Tian felt a little regretful in his heart.
I can't help but think of the scene of raising silkworms when I was young.
The little friend gave Tian Tian a small piece of silkworm eggs, and she put it into an empty matchbox, and soon, the black dots turned into black silkworms, like ants.
After growing up slowly, one day, Tian Tian suddenly found that they didn't eat or move, as if they were asleep, and as if they were dead.
So, she was up and down in her heart, and hurriedly took the matchbox to ask an experienced master of silkworm raising.
When she heard the affirmative reply of "it's okay", her hanging heart was steady.
Sure enough, after a day or two, they began to molt, and then, they began to chew mulberry leaves, and then, molting, and eating mulberry leaves. After repeating this several times, finally, the black coat was removed and turned into a beautiful white.
As they grow day by day, the mulberry leaves needed by spring silkworms become larger and larger.
The chubby fleshy look is so cute!
To say that a child's sense of responsibility is really amazing.
I heard that silkworms will have diarrhea after eating mulberry leaves with water, so Tian Tian will always wipe the mulberry leaves meticulously with his handkerchief at the first time, wipe the front, and then wipe the back.
In this way, the health of the silkworm is ensured as much as possible.
The mature silkworm has a transparent body, and its head begins to move and spin silk, and then, the wisps wrap itself, which may be the legendary "cocoon self-restraint".
After the silking is completed, the final layer of skin is withdrawn, and it becomes an oval-shaped pupae the size of peanuts. When it came out ten days later, it was already an E.
Since raising silkworms, the first thing I do every morning is to look at my silkworms, to see if they are dead, and to see how much they have grown.
As a result, raising silkworms brought endless fun to Tian Tian's childhood.
I really want to go back to the past and enjoy that incomparable childlike fun!
Later, I learned from the book that the silkworm moth that came out of the cocoon, after mating, the male will die, and after the female lays eggs, she will also end her glorious life one after another.
Therefore, let Tian Tian feel shocked from the bottom of his heart!
What a veritable "selfless dedication"!
In these days at home, Tian Tian followed her mother to rest at sunrise and sunset every day, but she was also leisurely.
In fact, returning from a hoe under the moon, the insects are chirping in the ears, which is also quite a romantic scene.
That afternoon, Tian Tian went to the ditch to pull fish grass and ran into Jiang Fan's mother.
She was very happy to talk to Tian Tian.
She said: "Your life is not ordinarily good, look, you found a rich family, married a good husband, and gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, how good!
He just didn't want to get married so early, and now Fanzi is a barrister, so it's a matter of minutes to marry a wife. β
"Tian Tian, who wants to marry into a family like mine - there are only four walls left in the house, and there is a butt of debts, and in addition, there is one lying on the bed. Heyββ!"
"Auntie, life will get better slowly. Jiang Fan is very profitable as a lawyer, you, just wait to hold your grandson and enjoy Qingfu!"
After speaking, Tian Tian smiled.
"Thank you for your kind words. By the way, Tian Tian, when are you going over? I want to ask you to help me bring something to Fanzi. β
"Well, I'm not sure yet, but I'll let you know a day in advance. β
