Wanghai County, Changping Village.
Tuan Yuanyuan had just returned from the Sun family's New Year's greetings, and Xiao Duo came over to talk.
"Sister, whenever is convenient, take Tuan Tuanyuan and go to Xiangjiazhuang for a trip."
"Going to your house? I think we'll forget about it this year." Yang Ruoqing said.
Xiaoduo immediately became unhappy, and she lowered her face and said, "Sister, what do you mean by this? You can go to Gong Gong's house and old Gong Gong's house, why can't you go to my aunt's house, who is your direct relative?"
"Haha, I knew you were going to say that." Yang Ruoqing said with a smile.
Xiaoduo pouted, "Since you know, why do you still refuse?"
"I don't care. We have to go to Xiangjiazhuang on the first day of the reunion. Sheng Nan and I have made all the preparations. You can't refuse. If you refuse, you will look down on me and Sheng Nan!"
Yang Ruoqing became more and more dumbfounded, "You just kidnapped me morally. Do you think your sister and I are that kind of person?"
Xiaoduo said: "If it's not the case, then why did you refuse my invitation earlier?"
Yang Ruoqing said: "Didn't I consider that the children are still young? It takes a long way to go to Xiangjiazhuang and they have to pass by the foot of the mountain, so I want to wait until they are older before going to your house, because I want to go there now." It’s just that we elders feel that something has been settled in our hearts, but for them, this trip to their aunt’s house will not leave the slightest impression.”
Xiaoduo fell silent, and the feigned anger on his face dissipated after Yang Ruoqing's detailed explanation.
"Sister, what you said makes sense, that's for sure. It's really cold in the first lunar month. When we got up and walked around, our fingers and toes were frozen. We had to squeeze into the fire barrel wherever we went to not come out. "
"Tuan Tuan Yuan is used to staying in your warm bedroom. Take me to Xiangjiazhuang. Although I can get two fire barrels at my house, it's still cold all the time."
Yang Ruoqing nodded, "Yes, just as you said, these two boys have been hiding in my house all winter. My house is as warm as spring, so they have been squeamish."
Xiaoduo was happy, "Sister, you can't say that to these two little brothers. How old are they? The little ones who just lived for a hundred days, who are not pampered?"
Yang Ruoqing said: "Although that is indeed what I said, there are disadvantages to being squeamish."
"Sister, let me tell you this. The two brothers have been out celebrating the New Year these two days. In fact, Tuantuan had a runny nose last night, and Yuanyuan also coughed a few times during the night."
Upon hearing what Yang Ruoqing said, Xiaoduo became anxious and his face was full of worry.
Her worried eyes covered the two little ones in front of her, and she lowered her voice and said, "Maybe I really caught a cold. How are you doing now?"
Yang Ruoqing said: "When Xiaoqin came over to feed her this morning, I let her drink a bowl of herbal medicine. Xiaoqin will come over to feed her later. Judging from the current situation, it seems to be under control, but she can't get cold anymore, otherwise The situation becomes more serious if it is triggered.”
Yang Ruoqing strongly suspected that it was too cold in the past two days and she took two such young children out to catch the cold.
Although we were packed tightly along the way and the distance was short, we were out in the warm weather after all.
When they arrived at Yang Huazhong's house and Da Sun's house, although fire barrels had been prepared, they were only for the two people holding the children to sit on. Tuan Tuanyuan was too small, and he could not put his little feet in the fire barrel and then sit on it. Go in.
Tuan Yuanyuan was still being held in someone's arms and placed on his lap. To put it bluntly, he was also in a fire barrel. In fact, it was useless. The heat of the fire barrel was concentrated at the bottom. It was impossible for the two children to be stuffed into the fire barrel to dry. Bar? Wouldn’t that be a teppanyaki?
So after thinking about it, Yang Ruoqing told Wang Cuilian and Luo Tiejiang about the situation. After getting the support of their two elders, she planned to stop visiting relatives and friends to reunite the two brothers in the first month of this year.
"When they are older and can walk next year, I will take them to Xiangjiazhuang for walking."
Yang Ruoqing then comforted Xiao Duo, "Or we can go when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming. If not, we can go in the summer. We don't have to stick to the New Year and the New Year, don't you think so, Duo'er?"
Xiaoduo completely changed his attitude, full of heartache and worry for the reunited brothers.
"Sister, don't be anxious, don't be anxious, it doesn't matter at any time. As long as the two of them are doing well and lively, I will be happy to see them."
Yang Ruoqing smiled happily, she was indeed her sister, her thoughts were the same as hers, and she always put the health and safety of her children first.
"Looking back at my mother's side, should I go and tell her, or should I?" Xiaoduo asked again.
Yang Ruoqing thought for a moment, "My mother is so lively. She still thinks like the older generation. They always think that when you get married, you have to choose the twelfth lunar month. Children come to choose the first lunar month. There are so many people and it's lively."
Or maybe it's just because there are so many people and it's so lively, and if someone in these crowds has a slight cold or something, adults are strong enough to withstand it, but for a delicate child like Tuan Yuan Yuan, wouldn't that be nonsense?
So Yang Ruoqing really doesn't recommend carrying her in crowded places during the first month of the year. It's okay to wait until the weather gets warmer and the child is older.
"Duo'er, you can call our parents first so that they can be prepared. I'll go over there later when I have free time, and I'll tell them in person."
As long as it's all out of concern for the two children, the parents will definitely agree.
Xiaoduo sat here for a while, and then talked about the fox last night.
"Sister, it really scared me. The fox's fiery red eyes. The first thought in my mind was Jiaojiao and Lingling..."
Yang Ruoqing said: "It's okay, that fox has been kept in captivity by Yuan Daozhang and will not escape again."
Xiaoduo said: "That's good, that's good. I'm most afraid of those things, they feel so evil!"
Yang Ruoqing felt that she needed to say a few good words for the white fox, so she said: "I found out why the white fox was wandering by the river."
"Oh? Why?"
"For its fox cub," Yang Ruoqing said, "In the summer, its fox cub went to the river to drink water and accidentally died. After that, it often wandered by the river, actually looking for it. The cub wants to call its cub to go home with it..."
Xiaoduo's eyes suddenly turned red, and she embarrassedly lowered her head to look for the handkerchief on her body.
"Sister, please stop talking. If you say more, I will burst into tears."
Yang Ruoqing smiled and thought to herself, haven't your tears already fallen?
Xiaoduo wiped her tears and sighed a few more words to Yang Ruoqing before getting up and going back to the next door.
As soon as Xiaoduo walked away with her front legs, Hongxiu came over with her back legs.
"Sister, that Huang Guier is making trouble in the house. Maybe she heard the news that she will be sent back to Yangzhou."
