Since this incident happened that made the whole family afraid of distress, Shen Rumeng and Yao Zhiwen were no longer willing to let Xiao Jingshu stay at home alone. 

When the relatives of the Yao and Shen families are free, they will still try their best to help the couple with Xiao Jingshu, but when no one is free, Shen Rumeng can only take her two daughters to work together. Although this is not allowed by the unit, the leaders of the unit also understand this, after all, the parents of that era had jobs, and there were many children, and there were even more children of grandchildren, and no one could take care of them all! 

On this day, Xiao Jingshu was brought by her grandmother Zheng Rong again, and played in and out of her grandmother's house all day, and the tired little guy fell asleep on the hot kang. 

Zheng Rong saw that her granddaughter finally fell asleep, and when she was free, she hurried to the kitchen and started to make dinner. 

Because of his work, Old Man Shen often arrives at home at different times, so as long as it is about the same time that Old Man Shen gets home from work, the Shen family will prepare a meal. It's just that every time Zheng Rong will instruct his two sons to let them look at their sleeping granddaughter, if Old Man Shen doesn't come back, their mothers and sons will have to wait for their granddaughter to wake up before starting the meal. 

It's the same today, because Xiao Jingshu is lying on the kang and falling asleep, so the two little uncles can only face the fragrant food, so hungry that even saliva is about to flow out, but they can only watch and endure and can't move.

The two of them looked at the little nephew's daughter for a while, and looked at the steaming meal on the dinner table for a while, and saw that it was almost time to start the meal, but the little nephew's daughter still had no sign of waking up. The two young uncles, who were hungry and greedy, were so anxious that they couldn't do it anymore, so they quietly glanced at each other. The younger brother Shen Jingyang was responsible for watching his mother Zheng Rong so as not to be discovered, and the elder brother Shen Feiyang was responsible for gently shaking Xiao Jingshu so that the little nephew and daughter could wake up and eat quickly.

In fact, this is not the first cooperation between the two brothers of the Shen family, because since Xiao Jingrou has been a frequent visitor to the Shen family, and because Xiao Jingshu is a very sleepy baby, as long as she sleeps a little late in the afternoon, she will always not wake up easily when it comes to dinner. At the beginning, the two uncles would still wait very seriously, but after more times, the two of them were so hungry that they couldn't stand it anymore.

So Shen Feiyang and Shen Jingyang began to use this method to wake up their niece and daughter, and as soon as Xiao Jingshu opened her eyes, they would shout loudly at Zheng Rong, who was busy in the kitchen: "Mom, Jingshu is awake, let's eat!" ”

And every time she heard her two sons shouting like this, Zheng Rong, who was very busy, would answer her two precious sons like this: "Hey, I know, then you can eat first!" Watch Jingshu eat well, but don't choke on her! ”

The two little uncles tried and failed every time, of course, every time the lovely little Jingshu was woken up by the uncles, not only would she not cry because of this, but she would be very happy. Because, as soon as she opens her eyes, she can eat the delicious food cooked by her grandmother, which is definitely a thing that makes her happy for a 5 or 6-year-old child! 

Xiao Jingshu especially likes to stay at her grandmother's house, in addition to the fact that her grandmother's family has delicious food that she can eat, the main reason is that her grandmother and two uncles can play with her at home. So every time Xiao Jingshu stayed happily at her grandmother's house for a day, when her father Yao Zhiwen came to pick her up at night, the little guy would immediately hide in the innermost corner of the kang and cry to her father very reluctantly: "I won't go back, I won't go back!" ”

Every time Xiao Jingshu is like this, it will make several adults feel distressed and cry and laugh, and several adults have to spend a lot of effort on her to carry out "coercion and temptation", and repeatedly promise her that she will soon be allowed to come to grandma's house again to play, so as to barely persuade the little guy to pout and follow his father home!

Such days lasted for a while, and as her younger sister Xiao Jingrou grew up day by day, from babbling to talking, from being able to sit until she could walk and run, Xiao Jingshu would never feel alone and afraid again. Because my sister Xiao Jingrou has started slowly, she can play with Xiao Jingshu all day long, and now Xiao Jingrou has completely become an inseparable little tail of Xiao Jingshu! 

Xiao Jingrou not only eats with Xiao Jingshu every day, sleeps in a quilt together, reads together, plays together, and even goes to the toilet She has to follow her sister closely, refusing to let go of any opportunity to stay with her sister. 

Xiao Jingrou is a gentle and quiet little girl with a very good temper, she doesn't talk so much and doesn't make much noise, she is always happy all day long, which is very similar to her father Yao Zhiwen. And Xiao Jingshu's personality is more like her mother Shen Rumeng, a diligent and talkative, cheerful and lively girl.

For Xiao Jingshu, who has more of her sister's little tail, she really doesn't bother her sister at all, and she is very patient and very willing to lead this cute little Rourou all the time. Xiao Rourou is even more obedient to Xiao Jingshu, no matter what her sister says, she is convinced that she will follow completely, and her dependence on her sister is even more than her dependence on her parents.

The two little sisters get along very well, and there is almost never a quarrel, for Shen Rumeng and Yao Zhiwen, who are parents, life with a baby has become a lot easier. The little couple can finally calm down a little and make some plans for the next days, especially Yao Zhiwen, the head of the family, who is bent on letting his wife and children live a happy life!

Since 1979, China has embarked on a more pragmatic path of reform and opening up, and some people with the ability have taken active action, and everyone has tried to do what they can, just to increase the income of their families.

Yao Zhiwen, who has a lively mind, was affected by the surrounding environment, and he also began to use his spare time outside of work to buy a popcorn machine with friends. The winter weather in the north was cold and long, and there were not so many snacks to buy in those days, so this popcorn was a very common snack that every household would buy in winter. 

Every day after work and on his days off, Yao Zhiwen and his friends would wear thick cotton clothes and shoes, thick hats and gloves, and do popcorn business on the side of the road without fear of the cold. Because the popcorn they sell is made with a machine that Yao Zhiwen bought from other places, which is very different from the popcorn pot made by local vendors, so for a while, Yao Zhiwen and his friends' small business was really prosperous!

In this way, day after day, with the unremitting efforts of his father Yao Zhiwen, the small life of a family of four is getting better and better. The courtyard wall originally made of wooden fences has become a gray brick wall made of cement bricks; What was originally a small wooden warehouse has been transformed into two spacious warehouses made of red bricks. One of the two warehouses is used for household sundries and food, and the other is used for fine wood shavings for fires. 

When household appliances were first available on the market, Yao Zhiwen became the first person in the neighborhood to buy a television. In order not to get his wife involved, Yao Zhiwen asked someone to buy a washing machine from other places; In winter, he was afraid that his wife and children would be damaged by freezing, so he bought an electric fan heater; In the summer, he was afraid that the heat would damage his wife and children, so he bought an electric fan...... In short, in order to give his wife and children a warm and happy home, as long as he can do it, Yao Zhiwen will never hesitate and spare no effort to do it. 

Yao Zhiwen's efforts were not in vain, except that Shen Rumeng was often envied by others and found a capable husband, always with a happy smile on his face, the happiest thing was his two lovely baby daughters! 

On this day, Yao Zhiwen had just pulled the TV to his home on a bicycle, and several neighbors who had received the news came to help join in the fun. Xiao Jingshu and Xiao Jingrou couldn't figure out what was going on with the TV, and when they saw that the adults were happy, the two young ladies became excited. The two of them kept going around their father, Xiao Jingshu kept asking questions, Xiao Jingrou didn't ask, she just smiled and took her sister's hand and followed her back and forth. Finally, when everyone put the TV set up, Yao Zhiwen turned on the switch of the TV with a smile, and the two young ladies looked at the TV screen with wide eyes and without blinking, and they were immediately attracted by this new thing. 

At that time, the TV set was not all black and white, and there were not many channels and programs broadcast, but it was enough to broaden people's horizons, especially in relatively backward rural areas. Because most of the families have not bought a TV yet, and the neighbors have not bought it yet, so every night the neighbors, large and small, will bring their own small benches and come to Yao Zhiwen's house to watch TV for a while. Yao Zhiwen and his wife are both generous and good-natured people, and every day they will warmly welcome their neighbors to their home, and the young lady will also happily entertain many young neighbors. 

The lively days of the small family as if it were the New Year finally came to an end after the neighbors' homes slowly bought all the TVs.
