Gu Yuan has slowly entered the role.
As a flower, he can't do anything. During the day, the yard feels lively, but at night, he feels bored and lonely.
What annoyed him the most was that there were always bugs crawling around on him, and they would bite him from time to time.
Oh, right.
The night before yesterday, a big toad suddenly jumped on him and made him sick.
After a few days, Gu Yuan had already mastered some information.
As he had guessed before, this was a newly married couple. They were classmates and had just gotten married. The woman was doing housework at home, while the man was working in a thermos bottle factory not too far from home. .
As for the woman, she is a flower lover and is not very young. She just got married and wanted to plant some flowers in the yard. Of course her man would not have any objection, so he immediately built a flower bed and pulled in some soil.
In addition to doing housework at home and waiting for her husband to come back every day, women go to the flower beds to loosen the soil, fertilize and water the flowers.
Such a life is peaceful and happy, at least for women.
In fact, she was a quiet person, Gu Yuan could tell.
Relatives came to the house, or parents-in-law came to visit, or the man brought three or two friends home for dinner. She just put a smile on her face and cooked the dishes seriously to save face for her man.
Perhaps now, many people would criticize such a woman, saying that she has no value of her own, or label her as "coquettish" or "dependent" with a few female punches.
But she doesn't care, she likes this kind of life.
She has many ways to reflect the value of her life.
For example, sitting at a table with a sumptuous meal, listening to other people's compliments at the table, and the proud expression of my husband.
Another example is pruning flower branches, watching the blooming flowers on the flower bed, and having relatives and friends come to learn from her. Only at this time will a woman talk endlessly about her experience in growing flowers, with her eyes filled with pride.
When a woman pruned his flowers, loosened the soil, and fertilized him, Gu Yuan felt that this woman was particularly cute.
And as time went by, he seemed to have gotten used to this kind of life.
Flowers bloom, flowers fade.
Sometimes, Gu Yuan even felt that he really was a flower.
soon.
The woman's belly gradually grew bigger.
That day, the man was very happy. Many people came to his family, including their parents, brothers, sisters...
The whole room was brightly lit and lively for a long time.
It was obviously just a flower, but Gu Yuan was actually quite happy.
Especially, watching the woman's stomach twitch a little bit.
What troubled Gu Yuan was that even if she was pregnant, the woman didn't seem to change her previous lifestyle.
I still hold a pair of scissors and a hoe, carefully pruning the flowers and loosening the soil.
Seeing her walking with her back straight, Gu Yuan was really scared.
Fortunately, at this time, the man came back.
"Oh, put it down! My aunt, didn't I tell you? Just leave this kind of thing to me from now on." The man quickly jumped onto the flower bed, but the woman was startled.
"do not move!"
The man froze immediately and looked at his wife with confusion.
"Go down...go down quickly." The woman said nervously.
The man scratched his head and jumped down from the flower bed, and the woman breathed a sigh of relief.
"Tell me about you, can you be more careful? You are about to become a father, and you are so frizzy that you almost trampled my flowers to death." The woman rolled her eyes, "You are like this, and you still say Help me take care of the flowers and plants? I can't trust you."
The man said with a sad face: "Then you can't come. Look how big your belly is. You climb up and down every day. If you accidentally fall..."
"It's only so high, how can I fall down?" the woman said angrily, "Besides, the flower bed only reaches my calves, so it won't be a big deal if I fall off."
"It was nothing before, but can you be the same now as before?" The man could only coax.
Not to mention that the woman is pregnant now, even if she is not pregnant, he would not dare to contradict his wife.
After carefully helping the woman sit down, the man breathed a sigh of relief.
"How about this? How about letting my mother come and help you clean up these flowers and plants from now on?" the man asked.
"Forget it. Mom is usually very busy. Besides, I feel more comfortable doing all the flowers and plants myself." The woman lightly rolled her black hair and said with a smile.
Seeing the woman being so persistent, the man could only shake his head and say nothing.
After all, the woman is a pregnant woman now, how can she be unhappy?
Of course, men have always been patient with women, always have been.
Another two months passed.
That was a night.
The man's parents came in a hurry wearing their clothes.
Carrying flashlights in their hands, they hailed a cart and hurriedly pulled the woman away.
Of course Gu Yuan knew what was happening.
After they left, Gu Yuan kept staring at the door.
It took about two days before they came back.
The difference from when they left was that this time, the happy couple became a family of three.
It was a boy. Of course Gu Yuan couldn't see it, but he could listen. He heard those people congratulating men and women, saying that they were very lucky because their first child was a big fat boy.
The man and woman looked at each other and smiled.
In fact, they don't care whether the child is a boy or a girl.
Even in this day and age, they feel that boys and girls are the same, after all, they are their own children.
Even during confinement, women instruct men to water and fertilize the flowers.
"When our family Liangliang grows up, we might as well leave all these jobs to him!" the man said while watering the flowers.
"Mom will definitely not be happy. She always said before that boys who like flowers will grow up to be sissies." The woman said with a smile.
The man disagreed: "What our son likes is not flowers, but the beauty that appears in life."
The woman chuckled: "Who did you learn this from?"
The man scratched his head in embarrassment: "I thought of it myself."
He looked at the woman holding the child with a happy smile on her face.
He said that when he was young, he thought about what kind of life he wanted when he grew up, but as he grew older, his ideas changed again and again.
But now, he knows.
That's the beauty of his life.
slowly.
The child named Liangliang grew up little by little.
Gu Yuan would watch him walking around in the yard every day.
He was stumbling, as if he would fall down in the next second. Gu Yuan's heart was also hanging, especially worried that he would fall.
But what we were worried about still happened.
That afternoon, Liangliang ran out of the house. When he crossed the threshold, he accidentally tripped and fell to the ground with a "thud", and then he burst into tears.
Gu Yuan felt heartbroken when he saw it. He wanted to help that tough-headed brat up, but he couldn't.
Then, the woman came out. She was a little worried at first, but when she was sure that Liangliang was okay, she smiled.
"Wrestle, fall, and grow taller."
As for children, how can they not fall when they are learning to walk?
Slowly, Liangliang grew up. He walked more and more steadily and became taller and taller. When the woman loosened the soil on the flower bed, he also held a small shovel to help, and almost knocked Gu Yuan's head off several times. The flower branches were cut off, but he was not angry at all.
He thought that this kind of happiness and stability would continue until that day, when the man got off work, he brought back a box with a layer of soil hanging on it.
