201 Change of Language
Mornings seem to be particularly nostalgic all year round: the blankets are the warmest in the mornings of winter and spring, and the coolest mornings in summer and autumn.
But, in Xiaohong's eyes, every morning is the same: the sun rises with its loud roar, and the villagers get up with its roar.
And it has recently discovered that Zhao Yang has become lazy: usually there will be movement in the house under his feet as soon as he screams, but now he doesn't wait for the sun to rise, don't expect him to come out of the house!
It's the same today.
When it "called" the sun out, paced back and forth on the roof twice and then flew down, stretched out its head to look into the yard, Zhao Yang still didn't come out.
However, Sun Zhenxiang got up, served them food, then washed his face and brushed his teeth, and prepared to cook.
In the bedroom on the east side, Chenmei lifted Zhao Yang's hand on her abdomen up, and said without opening her eyes when she was awake: "Well, my aunt is up, let's get up too, right?" ”
Zhao Yang continued to feel the soft skin in his palm, and he didn't open his eyes either. It's been less than a month now, and Chenmei's lower abdomen is still as flat as before, but her skin seems to be getting more and more delicate. After a while, he hummed, but didn't move.
Hearing the sound of washing rice outside, Chenmei opened her eyes, glanced at the golden sunlight reflected on the leaves of the pomegranate tree in front of the window, propped herself up, and said, "You can sleep for a while, I'll help my aunt cook." ”
Zhao Yang pressed her sideways to the pillow and said, "Don't go, otherwise our mother will have to talk about me again...... Besides, didn't our mother always make breakfast before? ”
Chenmei grabbed Zhao Yang's arm and bit it gently, and then said, "It used to be before, but now that we live together, we can't always let your mother cook alone, right?" ”
Zhao Yang said very dissatisfied: "What 'your mother' and 'your mother'?" Tomorrow will be engaged, according to our customs, you are the daughter-in-law of our old Zhao family, and you will have to be called 'our mother' in the future, you know? ”
Chenmei turned her head sideways and stroked Zhao Yang's face with a smile, and said, "Isn't there another day?" ”
Zhao Yang rolled his eyes and said, "Remember the time of the day, you are so atmospheric!" Besides, it's not for you to call 'Mom' to your face, let's call it in private, and I listen to it, right? ”
Chenmei rubbed Zhao Yang's face, kissed him again, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I'm not a little embarrassed?" Anyway, it's just one day, and tomorrow I'll be in front of everyone, right? ”
Zhao Yang snorted and said, "It should have been!" ”
Chenmei pursed her lips and smiled, lying in Zhao Yang's ear and calling sweetly, "Husband!" ”
Zhao Yang suddenly smiled, stretched out his arm to let her pillow, tidied up the quilt again, and said, "Sleep, let's sleep again!" ”
Chenmei pushed him and said angrily: "I hate it, it makes people uncomfortable!" ”
Zhao Yang smiled, still hugging her tightly.
After closing my eyes, I suddenly remembered the bed I had slept in alone over the years: not to mention the dormitory of junior high school and high school, including the university, the wooden bed is also a place to sleep; lived in my aunt's house during the college entrance examination, and slept with the legendary Simmons for the first time, but it was actually nothing more than Erer; And the bed I sleep in now, when I slept alone years ago, I didn't feel much either. However, since Chenmei came, she felt extra comfortable sleeping, which made people nostalgic - it was really different after having a woman!
said that he wanted to sleep back, but he just lay down for more than 20 minutes before Zhao Yang was called up. With him, Chenmei didn't sleep much, and also got up.
There are a lot of things going on today, and the first thing to do is to prepare for tomorrow's engagement banquet.
This matter, including the wedding banquet more than 20 days later, was discussed by the two families, and it was all held in the village.
The wedding banquet in the village is generally in the village or find a village banquet kitchen in the neighboring village, and Zhao Yang's family invited Zhao Binghao and Zhao Feng from their own family.
Although the engagement banquet was just for the Zhao family to invite Chenmei's family, compared with the wedding banquet, the dishes were more demanding and more exquisite, so Zhao Binghao rushed over with Zhao Feng and his newly recruited apprentice without breakfast to discuss the matter of setting a recipe.
Entering the house, Zhao Binghao took out a menu and handed it to Zhao Bingxing, saying, "Bingxing, how about you two take a look at these dishes?" Is there anything to add or subtract? ”
Zhao Bingxing glanced at it, and the "eight bowls and eight dishes" plus four side dishes on it were the standard configuration of the local engagement banquet, so he handed the menu to Zhao Yang and said, "Hongmei, you two take a look, add anything you want to add." ”
Chenmei blushed slightly and said, "You guys look at it, don't be too wasteful!" ”
Sun Zhenxiang was withdrawing money in the house, and the smile on his face became stronger after hearing this, so he said: "Mei, you can also take a look, it is all eaten by our own family, the most important thing is to eat well, don't worry about the rest!" ”
Zhao Yang saw that there were two common Sichuan dishes on the menu, "spicy cabbage" and "Zhenzi fish scale eggplant", so he said: "Uncle, let's replace these two with our local dishes, and let my husband and women taste our flavor!" ”
Zhao Binghao looked at the menu, glanced at his son Zhao Feng again, and said with a smile: "Okay!" I said to use our broth here to pour cabbage and eggplant, Fengzi has to replace these two dishes, look, Zhao Yang also said to use our dishes, right? You're still tender, learn from Lao Tzu! ”
Zhao Feng muttered: "It's always these dishes, it's time to change them!" ”
His words naturally attracted Zhao Binghao's glare, but because he was going to the county to buy vegetables, he was persuaded by Zhao Bingxing after just two sentences.
When Zhao Feng and the others went out, Zhao Binghao drank two bowls of egg soup specially cooked for him at Zhao Yang's house, and began to "weave pots" in the yard, which was to build a temporary stove.
Zhao Yang couldn't help with these things, and when Chenmei packed up her things, he drove her to her new home in the county - this was the second thing to do today. Although there has not been so much attention in recent years, it is always not the case that the woman lives in the man's house before the engagement.
When Zhao Yang and the two arrived at their new home, Li Hui was watching TV with Chenxi.
As soon as she saw Zhao Yang and the others, Chenxi immediately ran over and stretched out her hand for them to hug.
Li Hui also stood up from the sofa and said with a smile: "You said that Xixi is very fine, as soon as you came in, she said that she heard the sound of your car!" ”
Zhao Yang picked up Chenxi and kissed it, touched the cloth flower on her head, and said with a smile: "Is Xixi well-behaved at grandpa's house?" ”
Li Hui immediately laughed and said, "Oh, I haven't seen a child who is more sensible and smart than Xixi!" Just this morning, I combed her hair and complimented her on how beautiful she was wearing this flower, and she immediately said, 'Aunt is beautiful too!' That's so clever! I heard her say that this hair was bought by Zhao Yang, don't say it, you are quite good at buying things! ”
Zhao Yang glanced at Chenxi's head again, thinking that the toy wooden gun that brought him endless joy when he was a child was still preserved, and hoped that this cloth flower could also be well preserved, whenever he thought of it and saw it, it was also a good memory!
After Li Hui finished speaking, she took Chenmei's arm again, and said enviously: "Little sister, you are so good, you have such a lovely daughter, and now you are going to have a cute baby again...... Is there a reaction now? ”
Chenmei chuckled softly: "It's still early!" Sister-in-law, don't worry, isn't this almost halfway through this year? ”
Seeing that Zhao Yang had already entered the house with Chenxi in his arms, Li Hui also helped Chenmei and walked in.
Zhao Yang saw that only Chen Dujiang was in the house, so he asked, "Uncle, what about Aunt and Big Brother?" ”
Chen Dujiang pointed to the sofa for Zhao Yang to sit down, and said, "Xiaojun accompanied your aunt to go out to buy vegetables!" ”
Li Hui took the cup and tea from the cupboard, and said with a smile: "Still called uncle and aunt?" It's time to change your tune, right? ”
Chenmei looked at Zhao Yang and nodded and laughed, thinking that when he was at his house, he would casually talk about it and let her change her name to Mom, looking like she should and easily, what about you?
Zhao Yang opened his mouth, and found that this kind of thing was very easy to say at the bottom, if you really want to change your mouth in person, it will be really difficult to change it for a while!
Chen Dujiang didn't look at Zhao Yang, but straightened the newspaper and said, "Don't be in a hurry for a while, it's not too late to call tomorrow!" ”
Zhao Yang saw Chenmei's teasing eyes, blinked, thinking that it was not a big deal, so he gently exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, and then inhaled slowly, breathing into the dantian, smiling, and then called: "Dad!" ”
Li Hui snorted and laughed, put the teacup in front of Zhao Yang, and said, "Your 'Dad' is really beautiful!" ”
Chenmei wanted to flatten her mouth and put on a disdainful expression, but she couldn't help but upturn the corners of her mouth and said with a smile on her eyebrows and eyes: "Cheeky!" ”
Zhao Yang cleared his throat, feeling that he had changed his mouth for the first time, and his whole body was a little hot. However, thinking that they had only met three or four times, it was not easy to call out, so he ignored Li Hui and Chenmei's words.
Chen Dujiang's face remained unchanged, but his voice couldn't hide his excitement, and he nodded: "Okay!" Then he took out a red envelope from under the coffee table and handed it to Zhao Yang, saying, "Here, this is a change of mouth fee!" ”
Zhao Yang was stunned for a moment, Chenmei snatched it over, then glanced at Zhao Yang, and said, "Dad, I can't give it to him now!" What if I give it to you tomorrow? ”
Chen Dujiang laughed.
Zhao Yang smiled helplessly.
Li Hui poured water for Zhao Yang and Chenmei, sat down with her mouth pursed, glanced at Chenxi who was snuggled up to Zhao Yang, and said with a smile: "Zhao Yang is all hearted, are we Xixi going to change his words?" ”
Chenmei picked up the teacup and did not speak.
Zhao Yang hugged Chenxi and looked up at the ceiling.
Regarding this issue, Zhao Yang began to think that Chenxi was the only bloodline of his senior brother Dong Hai in this world, and only he could let her call "Dad", so his original plan was to let Chenxi call him uncle all the time.
But now that I think about it, it's too much of a show! What he wants to do is to let Chenxi grow up healthy and happy, and remember Dong Hai's kindness to her, instead of clinging to a title.
Moreover, if she keeps letting Chenxi call him uncle, for herself, especially after going to school, it may attract some unnecessary gossip and cause her trouble; For Sun Zhenxiang and Zhao Bingxing, it is naturally unacceptable; Chen Mei said that she should be able to understand his thoughts and know his heart; However, for Chen Dujiang, will they see this as a sign that he doesn't want to accept Chenxi?
What about yourself? Do you have this desire?
Just stopped, Zhao Yang lowered his head again and gently kissed Chenxi's hair.
Li Hui saw it and immediately said to Chenxi: "Xixi, from tomorrow, your uncle and your mother will be a family, do you know!" ”
Chenxi nodded, and said like a little adult: "Uncle said, we are originally a family!" ”
Li Hui smiled and touched her cute little face, and said, "Xixi is right, you are originally a family!" Then, in that case, you can no longer call him uncle, you have to call him 'Daddy' instead!" ”
Chenxi said suspiciously, "Why? ”
Li Hui patiently explained: "That's the case, before, you weren't considered a formal family, but from tomorrow onwards, you will be considered an official family!" And what about the formal family, you also watched cartoons on TV last night, is it made up of mom and dad and children? ”
Dawn nodded with a finger in her mouth.
Li Hui tilted his body to look at her and said, "That's right!" So, you're going to call Zhao Yang's dad in the future! ”
Chenmei put down the teacup, straightened the hair that held Chenxi down, and asked softly, "Xixi, are you willing to call your uncle and father?" ”
Chen Dujiang also looked over.
Chenxi raised her head and looked at Zhao Yang.
In Chenxi's innocent eyes, Zhao Yang suddenly felt a pang of apprehension in his heart. He smiled gently, reached out and touched her little face, feeling his fingers tremble a little!
Chenxi suddenly covered her eyes with her hands, buried her head in Zhao Yang's arms, and said, "I'm embarrassed!" ”
Several people breathed a sigh of relief, and Li Hui immediately encouraged: "Xixi is the bravest, come, call Dad, and make your current uncle happy!" ”
Chenmei didn't speak, but Chendujiang smiled and said, "Yes, Xixi, you can call it!" ”
Zhao Yang clenched his fists and hugged Chenxi, feeling that his heart was beating fiercely like never before. He exhaled, stopped them, and said, "Don't force her, wait until you get used to it!" ”
Seeing Zhao Yang say this, they didn't say anything anymore, but they didn't have any topics for a while, so they all picked up the tea and drank it.
Hearing that there was no movement outside, Chenxi looked out from between her fingers, and saw that everyone was looking at her, so she quickly covered her eyes again and drilled into Zhao Yang's arms.
Her action naturally made everyone laugh again.
Feeling the cute little guy in his arms, Zhao Yang lowered his head and kissed her on the head, and said from the bottom of his heart: "No matter what you call me, you are my favorite big baby!" ”
Dawn twisted her little body, looking happy.
Zhao Yang smiled, patted her lightly on the back, and then asked, "Mom and eldest brother have been out for a while?" Why haven't you come back yet? ”
The "Dad" in front of him screamed, and the "Mom" who didn't meet didn't have to make much effort to scream!
Li Hui smiled, took out her mobile phone, and said, "Let me ask-someone is in a hurry to see his mother-in-law to collect the change fee!" ”
Chen Dujiang raised the newspaper again and said, "Just ask, it's a bit long to go today!" ”
Li Hui just got through the phone, and then was hung up. She put her phone on the table and said, "Don't call, it should be there soon!" ”
Zhao Yang asked Li Hui again if she was tired from helping in the store two days ago.
When Li Hui heard this, she said with great interest: "I didn't expect business to be so easy to do in a small county!" ”
Chenmei smiled: "Compared with big cities, each has its own advantages." However, it is more comfortable to do business in a small county! ”
Then the two chatted about the topic.
Chenxi opened her fingers and looked out again, and seeing that everyone didn't notice her, she pulled Zhao Yang's clothes.
Zhao Yang glanced down at her and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”
Chenxi pulled Zhao Yang's head in front of him, and leaned in his ear and shouted out two words in a voice like a breeze: "Dad!" ”
Zhao Yang was suddenly shocked!
At this time, there was a knock on the door, Li Hui hurriedly stood up and said with a smile while going to open the door: "Your brother and mother are back!" ”
As soon as the door opened, the family saw the man sitting in the room standing up with Chenxi in his arms, kissing and kissing, and turning in circles! If it weren't for the spaciousness of the room, I don't know if it would knock over the table!
