On the gravel road leading from the capital to Yunshan County, two jeeps were speeding along.
In the car in front, Li Youwei was holding her eldest son Zhou Jiacheng and chatting with Li Qian, who was also holding her child.
"Qianqian, this kid of yours is so worry-free. He goes to bed when he's full, eats when he wakes up, and grunts when he pees!"
Then Li Youwei continued: "It's not like these two brats in our family who would cry at such loud voices whenever something happened before they were one year old. It's too tiring!"
New mother Li Qian looked at the little one in her arms, her face full of maternal glory.
Indeed, she also found that her son was really worry-free, except that when he was just born, he cried from hunger because there was no milk.
After the milk came in, the little guy became obedient and seldom cried, so many people said that the baby was here to repay a favor.
"Sister Weiwei, no matter how tired you are, you still come here. Our Xiaojun is only a little bit old, and we don't know when he will grow to be as big as Dabao and Xiaobao." Li Qian said.
"You don't have to worry about growing up when you're young, but you worry about not being able to maintain your health. Children grow up very quickly!" Li Youwei said.
"My mother said the same thing, but the period of confinement is really difficult. It's just not eating well and sleeping well. I don't know how I survived this month if I don't let the windows open in such hot weather. Got it!"
"Haha, confinement itself is difficult, and you will suffer even more when you encounter such hot weather. But in order to avoid confinement sickness, you have to endure it no matter how difficult it is!" Li Youwei said.
"Yeah, but seeing how little Jun looks like every day, I feel that no matter how severe the punishment is, it's worth it. I just hope that when he grows up, he can be as obedient as Dabao and Xiaobao!"
Hearing his name, the child Zhou Jiacheng in Li Youwei's arms looked at Li Qian curiously, and then said in a sweet voice: "Baby...obey!"
Li Youwei and Li Qian were both amused by this little guy, and seeing their mother and aunt smiling from ear to ear, Dabao also started to giggle.
After laughing for a while, Li Youwei suddenly asked Liu Yunlong, who was driving in the front seat: "Yunlong, where are you now?"
"We're almost at the county seat. We'll be back in the village in more than 20 minutes!" Liu Yunlong replied.
"I'm finally back. I don't know how the village is doing now!" Li Youwei said with anticipation.
Liu Yunlong said immediately: "The changes in the village have been great. Not only have there been a lot more people, but also many new factories have been built. By the way, collective hotels, guest houses, and even supply and marketing cooperatives have been built in the village now!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Li Qian say in surprise: "Why do we build restaurants and guesthouses in the village? Is anyone going to eat and stay there?"
"Haha, the restaurants and guest houses are naturally not built to entertain villagers, but are prepared for outsiders who come to the village. It is said that business is good!" Liu Yunlong said while driving.
Li Qian smiled and said: "There were hospitals and schools in the village, and now there are supply and marketing cooperatives, restaurants and guest houses. This is no different from the city, right?"
"No, now people from the nearby ten miles and eight villages no longer go to the county seat, they all go to our Babaoliang Village!" Liu Yunlong said with a smile.
Hearing this, Li Youwei and Li Qian were also very happy, especially Li Youwei. She knew that these changes in the village were inseparable from the efforts of her men.
"By the way Yunlong, the college entrance examination is about to take place soon. I wonder how prepared the candidates in the village are this year?"
Liu Yunlong smiled and said, "It seems not bad. I sent materials to the cram school some time ago. Principal Wang (Wang Liping) said that although this year's batch of students are not as good as you, they are not bad either!"
"That's good. I'm afraid that last year we all passed the exam all at once, but this year none of us can pass the exam. That would be embarrassing!" Li Youwei said.
"No, I heard from Principal Wang that there are a few top students this year. Although we can't guarantee that all the hundreds of people who took the exam will pass, it's still okay to get half of them on the list!"
"hope so!"
Just as he was talking, the car suddenly turned to the right and drove onto a wide and flat cement road. The slightly bumpy car suddenly stabilized.
Seeing the familiar yet unfamiliar environment, Li Youwei asked in surprise: "Yunlong, is this the way back to our village? How did it become like this?"
Liu Yunlong smiled and said: "The road was built by the army with money. It is a cement road. Now it only takes more than ten minutes to drive from our village to the county seat. It is very easy to walk!"
"Ah, it's such a good idea. Isn't it a waste of money?"
"It's a lot of money, but the director said it was worth the money!" Liu Yunlong said with a smile.
“It’s really worth it...”
Several people were chatting, and after a while, a huge village appeared in the sight of Li Youwei and others...
.........
Babaoliang Village. Zhou Family!
In the kitchen, Zhou Yang was pulling the bellows next to the stove, and the aroma of meat from the big iron pot was already wafting out.
Next to the pressure well in the yard, Chen Beixuan was squatting there washing cucumbers, radishes and other vegetables.
At this moment, the sound of a car's engine suddenly came from outside the gate, followed by a harsh beeping sound.
Hearing the sound, Zhou Yang instantly stood up from the fire-burning bench, threw the fire shovel in his hand on the ground, and hurried towards the yard.
As soon as he ran out of the kitchen, he saw Liu Yunlong getting out of the car.
Knowing that his wife and children were back, Zhou Yang immediately ran towards the gate.
When Chen Beixuan on the side saw this, he ignored the half-washed vegetables and immediately followed him.
As soon as Zhou Yang opened the door of his home, he heard his precious daughter leaning against the car window shouting "Daddy" loudly.
Then the car door opened, and Bao'er jumped out of the car and ran straight towards Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang immediately took a few steps and picked up the little girl.
"Hahaha, I've grown taller and gained weight!"
"Dad, I'm already 1.4 meters tall, am I awesome?" the little girl said with a proud look on her face.
"sharp!"
At this time, Wen Hui also got out of the car, holding a little guy on his hand.
Although he didn't know whether it was Dabao or Xiaobao, Zhou Yang still strode over.
Putting Bao'er down, Zhou Yang picked up his son again.
The little guy is now two years and two months old. Not only can he walk, but he can also talk.
Maybe it was because he hadn't seen his father for a long time. After being picked up by Zhou Yang, the little guy resisted a little and kept looking at Bao'er next to him.
At this time, Li Youwei, Li Qian, Huang Rufeng, Li Haiyan and others also got out of the car.
Seeing the jeeps lined up at the gate, Li Youwei asked in surprise: "Are there any guests at home?"
Before Zhou Yang could answer, Li Qian on the side exclaimed: "It's my father's car. Brother Zhou, is my father here with you..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Li Changqing, Yang Qi and others walking out of the room.
Seeing that his daughter and grandson were back, Li Changqing was so excited that he jogged all the way to the gate...
Everyone gathered at the gate of Zhou's house, and the atmosphere instantly became lively.
After a while of greetings, everyone returned to the house.
After entering the door, she learned that her man was making lunch for them, and Li Youwei immediately handed over the two little ones to Bao'er and Wen Hui to take care of them.
And she immediately came to the kitchen and helped!
Since Zhou Yang had already stewed the meat, Li Youwei helped prepare two cold dishes and then prepared to start the meal.
Although there are not many varieties of lunch today, they are all hard dishes.
In addition to braised pork and braised pork ribs, there are also braised lamb and chicken stewed with mushrooms, which are paired with two cold dishes.
Because he was so happy, Zhou Yang even took out two bottles of Maotai from his collection to entertain everyone!
Then the room became lively as cups were exchanged...
