Chapter 48: Good News
The Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. On this day, every household is dressed in new clothes
The village branch of Sujia Village organized the Lantern Festival, the villagers ate the rice balls in the morning, and gathered in the small square of the village in the evening, and all kinds of folk performances were lively and lively: enjoying the lanterns, guessing the lantern riddles, setting off fireworks, swimming dragon lanterns, and lion dance......
Su Yumei took Su Manjin and Su Jinyang to join in the fun.
"Xiaoyang, the lanterns will be lifted later, and the candles inside won't shake over." Su Yumei told her nephew.
Su Manjin looked at the paper lantern in his brother's hand, it was beautiful and affordable, but it was not suitable for a little doll.
She turned around and went to her grocery store and took an electronic lantern from the display rope.
Zeng Meiyue saw Su Manjin's movements as soon as she finished her work, "Xiaoman, what are you doing with this lantern, this is the most expensive one." ”
Su Manjin smiled and said, "Mom, I know this is the best lantern, I bought it for my younger brother to play." ”
With that, she took the bill out of her pocket and placed it on the glass counter.
"Oh, you kid, let's play by ourselves, we don't have to take such a good one. Xiaoyang doesn't know how to cherish things, where to throw them away when he turns around, isn't it a waste? ”
Su Manjin disagreed: "Mom, it's because I bought it for my younger brother to play that I chose the best-looking one." We sell things in our store, so we can't always sell good things to others, and keep cheap things for ourselves. ”
"Hey, Xiaoman, what are you doing running so fast......" It was Su Manjin's back who ran away that replied to Zeng Meiyue.
Su Manjin ran back to the courtyard of the old house and handed the tiger-shaped electronic lantern in his hand to Su Jinyang.
"Xiaoyang, this is the lantern that Sister bought for you, you can play with it." Su Manjin took back the paper lantern in his brother's hand.
Ever since Su Jinyang saw the tiger lantern, his little eyes were glued to it.
He sighed: "Sister~~ This tiger lantern, look good~~"
Su Manjin said with a smile: "Yes, this year is the Year of the Tiger, our little Jinyang is one year older, this lantern is the Lantern Festival gift from Sister A~"
"Sister is so good~ I like this gift~" Xiao Jinyang couldn't put it down while holding the lantern, and didn't forget to thank her sister for being coquettish.
The three aunts and nephews happily walked towards the small square of Sujia Village.
The small square was crowded with people, and the performance of the dragon and lion dance in the middle aroused bursts of applause from the crowd.
All kinds of lanterns are hung around the square, and there are lantern riddles pasted next to them, as long as you guess the lantern riddles correctly, you can win the corresponding lanterns. This activity is the most popular with everyone, and some people who are reluctant to buy lanterns for their children come together to guess the lantern riddles.
The dolls were all dressed in festive clothes today, and they gathered in groups to show the lanterns in their hands to the friends.
Su Manjin experienced the lively folk activities in the countryside, and then prepared to go home.
She asked Su Jinyang, the little guy was having fun with the friends in the village, so he didn't want to go home. Su Manjin told him not to go home too late, so he went back with Su Yumei.
Su Manjin looked at Su Yumei's face and asked her with concern: "Auntie, what's wrong with you, are you uncomfortable?" ”
Su Yumei shook her head: "I'm fine, I just feel a little palpitations and dizziness, it is estimated that there are too many people in the square, just go home and rest." ”
Su Manjin helped his aunt back to the house and lay down, and poured her another cup of hot water.
"Auntie, are you low blood sugar, drink some sugar water and see if it will get better."
Su Yumei took the water cup and took a sip, and just put down the cup, suddenly a feeling of nausea hit her, and she couldn't help but lean on the side of the bed and retch.
Su Manjin: ...... What are the symptoms of pregnancy?
"Auntie, didn't you come for your period?" Su Manjin asked.
Su Yumei was stunned for a while, "Speaking of which, it's been delayed for six or seven days, but I sometimes don't ...... on time."
Su Manjin smiled brightly, "Auntie, I may have to be a cousin." ”
"You lie down first, lie down well, I'll buy you a test strip."
Su Yumei didn't understand: "Xiaoman, what paper?" ”
"You lie down first, and wait for me to come back." Su Manjin hurriedly ran towards the pharmacy on the street.
Most people in rural areas do not know how to use test strips, and the two health clinics in Sujia Village do not sell them. Su Manjin went to a slightly larger pharmacy in Zhangcuo Village and bought a pregnancy test.
When Su Manjin returned home, Su Yumei was still lying down. Anyway, I had dinner at home, and today was another day off, and she didn't have much strength and didn't want to get up.
"Auntie, let's go to the bathroom and try it to see if we're pregnant."
Su Yumei suspiciously followed Su Manjin's instructions, tested the test pen, and handed it to Su Manjin.
After five minutes, Su Manjin looked at the two bars on the pregnancy test stick and happily congratulated: "Auntie, you are pregnant, I really want to be a cousin." ”
Su Yumei looked at the pregnancy test stick suspiciously: "Xiaoman, can this alone mean that I am pregnant?" ”
Su Manjin explained with a smile: "Auntie, this is a pregnancy test, you measured two bars, basically it is confirmed." However, your period has only been postponed for a week, and it is still early, so after half a month, you can go to the hospital for a B ultrasound check. ”
Su Yumei was a little excited in her heart, she was 26 years old, and she was also anxious when she watched others get pregnant one by one after being married for so many years, but her husband kept going out, and the two didn't get together a few times a year...... Now I'm finally pregnant, and I'm going to be a mother!
The Su family came back in the evening, and Su Manjin quietly shared the news, and the family was very happy.
Early the next morning, Su Jinshun and Su Yuhui went to catch the sea again, this time Zhou Xiuni didn't let Su Yumei follow, she let her daughter rest at home and make lunch by the way, and followed her husband and son to the sea.
Last night, the husband and wife calculated and decided to let Zhou Xiuni and Su Yumei swap the division of labor.
The daughter finally got pregnant, and then let her rest more at home, and she could also take care of the business of collecting seafood for her neighbors, and catch the sea and touch the water, so don't let her go.
At about eleven o'clock in the morning, Su Jinshun and Su Yuhui delivered seafood to the restaurant as usual, but they didn't expect to meet the Yang family waiting on the side of the road on the way back.
"My family, there's good news." Yang Zhuzhu's mother was carrying a basket, and when she saw Su Jinshun, she hurriedly greeted her.
Su Jinshun looked at this smiling woman and wondered: Why did the mother of the second daughter-in-law wait on the side of the road?
Su Yuhui saw that his father didn't respond, and hurriedly spoke: "It's aunt, why are you standing on the side of the road?" What good news do you have? ”
Yang Zhuzhu's mother smiled and said, "You're going to be an uncle, do you think it's good news?" ”
After hearing this, Su Jinshun was a little surprised, and he stared at it: "You mean, Zhuzhu is also pregnant?" ”
"Yes, it's also just gotten, my niece and daughter-in-law is an obstetrician and gynecologist, and I have seen her, and it is estimated that it has only been more than a month. No, when I heard the good news, I hurriedly reported the good news to you! ”
"Good! Good! You ask Zhuzhu, would you like to come to the house to raise the baby? Yuwen went out on the tenth day of the first month, and I asked his mother to take care of it. "Su Jinshun is happy, Tian Ding imports, this is a great thing!
Yang Zhuzhu's mother smiled and said: "In-laws, Zhuzhu will be raised in her mother's house first, and when Yuwen goes home on the Qingming Festival, let them discuss it together." ”
Su Jinshun: "Cheng, then I'll go back and send some things over to make up for Zhuzhu." ”
