Seventy Couple’s Daily Routine

Before she knew she was pregnant, Lin Wei was a little nauseous when she smelled the fishy smell, and she didn't react much. But when the results came out, it might be due to psychological factors, and her reaction increased. Now she can't smell the fishy smell at all, and she retches when she eats it.

So she doesn't buy seafood now, Zong Shao has less rest, and she cooks most of the rice. If she steams seafood at home, she can vomit from cooking to finishing.

Even if she went to a state-run restaurant to make a meal, she had to cover her nose. The lunch box was separated from Zong Shao and the children. She would eat chicken, fish, pork, and eggs if she had it.

Mingming Ruirui sometimes sees her uncomfortable, and will also say that she will stop eating seafood and follow her to be a vegetarian. When there are no tickets, I will say otherwise. When there are tickets, Lin Wei will usually provide them with meat and meat. She is growing and needs nutrition to keep up.

Zong Shao was also worried about Lin Wei's nutrition. Seeing that she could eat eggs, he found people he knew from the surrounding brigade, and asked them to contact a few families who raised chickens, and troubled them to supply eggs regularly.

So, Lin Wei's mother and son quickly lived the days of boiled eggs in the morning and egg custard in the evening.

In addition to eggs, those families can occasionally get chickens or ducks for Zong Shao. Of course, not all of them are raised by themselves. It's not easy to raise a chicken these days. The eggs you save can be sold for money. Domestic chickens and ducks are all rationed, and it is reluctant to kill one at every turn.

But they have dozens of families in a brigade, and they basically keep chickens and ducks at home. You sell one this week, and I will sell one next week, which is quite a lot.

However, Zong Shao doesn't ask for chickens and ducks so often, only one or two a month, and it will be bad if it affects more. Even if there is a reason for Lin Wei's pregnancy, it is hard to tell from above.

One or two a month is not excessive, and chickens and ducks are agricultural products. As long as you don’t buy low and sell high, the state will not care so much. The peasants had a hard time these days, and they were unwilling to block their roads.

Therefore, although Lin Wei had to give up seafood because of the reaction during pregnancy, there were various broths on the table. After a while, her whole person seemed to be more rounded.

When I went to the hospital for an obstetric examination for the second time, even Dr. Gao joked, "The food has been good recently."

Lin Wei: "…"

Lin Wei didn't say anything at the time, but after she went back, she sat or stood in front of the mirror and looked at it for a long time, asking Zong Shao from time to time, "Have I really gained a lot of weight?"

Zong Shao shook his head: "No, you are just right now." Lin Wei's bones are thin, and it doesn't matter how much flesh she has.

Although Zong Shao said no, but with the words he deliberately added, Lin Wei felt that no was equivalent to yes, and his face suddenly collapsed: "Isn't it still yes?"

Zong Shao: "...It should be alright, didn't you grow a little flesh when you gave birth to Ming Ruirui?"

"I only grew flesh in the later period."

When Huai Ming Ming Rui Rui, she was thin a few months ago, and she only grew a little longer when her belly became pregnant. And even in the later stage, she didn't grow much, and her stomach didn't beat as much as those who were pregnant with a single child. Because of this, Mingming Ruirui was much smaller than his peers after birth.

But this time she was pregnant with a single child, and she became so fat after only three months. What would it be like when she was pregnant?

In fact, it's okay to gain weight during pregnancy, Lin Wei is afraid that she won't lose weight after giving birth.

Zhao Li is like this. She didn't gain much weight when she had two children, and she lost weight quickly after giving birth, but when she was pregnant with her third child, she didn't know whether she ate too well, or her metabolism was not so fast as she got older, and she became fat during pregnancy. One and a half, and I haven't lost any weight yet.

Lin Wei can accept that she is plump, but she will never accept that she is fat.

But she was pregnant with a child, and she couldn't eat nothing. No matter how big or small the child was, she always hoped that the child would be healthy.

After thinking about it, Lin Wei decided to give herself half an hour of walking time after dinner every day.

Before she was pregnant, Lin Wei would still move after eating, but after she became pregnant, she became lazy. lie down.

Lin Wei felt that if she wanted to find the culprit of her weight gain, lazy words would be among them.

Lin Wei wanted to increase the amount of exercise, Zong Shao not only expressed his support with his hands and feet, but also showed his support with practical actions. After dinner, he went out with his daughter-in-law, and Ruirui hurriedly followed after seeing it.

As the after-dinner walk becomes their new family activity, it's Mingming Ruirui's birthday.

In fact, people these days don't pay much attention to birthdays. They may have a whole year old. It would be good to have a bowl of noodles with eggs on a small birthday.

Last year, it was clear that Ruirui had a bowl of noodles with fried eggs on her birthday, and Lin Wei also gave them a dime to buy snacks.

But for the two kids, last year was a long way off, and they couldn't remember exactly what happened this time last year, so they had no idea of ​​a birthday.

Therefore, when Lin Wei said she wanted to give them a birthday, Ruirui didn't have any special reaction, and she asked, "What's the birthday?"

Lin Wei said: "Your birthday is the date you were born, and at this time of year, family members will help to celebrate."

Because Mom and Dad always find various reasons to celebrate, so they clearly understand the meaning of this word, their eyes lit up and asked: "Can we celebrate on our birthday?"

"Of course." Lin Wei nodded.

Mingming asked again, "How can we celebrate?"

"You can invite children to play at home and tell your mom what gifts you want. As long as it's not too much, Mom and Dad will try their best to satisfy you."

"Is it okay to ask for any kind of gift?" Mingming couldn't help being surprised and asked.

Rarity asked, "Does the gift have to be something?"

"Gifts don't have to be objects. You can ask for it, but it can't be too much. Otherwise, I will deprive you of your right to celebrate your birthday. At that time, all you will get is a bowl of noodles with eggs."

After joining the army, their family's food was much better than that in Shicheng, mainly because of the rich variety of seafood on Yazhou Island, the supply standard was set high, and the supply of chicken, duck, pork and eggs. As long as you're not the kind of person who eats today and doesn't care about tomorrow, make a plan, and it's not a problem to be tainted with meat and fish every day.

In addition, after Lin Wei was pregnant, Zong Shaotuo sent eggs regularly, and the mouths of the two children had long been raised. The noodles with eggs were not a celebration for them.

Therefore, after receiving Lin Wei's warning, the two children, especially Mingming, calmed down and did not dare to make demands.

But obviously he didn't want to waste this birthday. His mother said that birthdays only come once a year. If you miss this time, you can only wait until today next year.

Although he still has no concept of time, he knows that a year is very, very long.

So he decided to think about what he wanted before his birthday.

It's just that he wants too much. He doesn't want to go to class, he wants to eat a lot of delicious food, he also wants new toys, he wants to go out to play... He wants so much, it's hard to decide for a while!

Obviously scratching his ears and cheeks for several days, even eating is not very fragrant.

But soon he found out that his younger brother was still the same as usual. He was not in a hurry at all. He took advantage of his mother's class and let them go out to play and asked, "Have you thought about any present?"

"Think about it."

"what do you want?"

"I wanted a bigger puzzle," Rarity said. "I've done the previous puzzles many times, and I've memorized them all."

"Memorize it when you recite it. Anyway, when you make a puzzle, the patterns are all messed up."

"I know where the pieces go when I memorize them. It's easy to put together. It's not that fun." Rarity is still young and doesn't know what a sense of accomplishment is, so she can only classify it as fun or not.

Mingming said inexplicably: "But I think it will be more fun if you do it all at once."

The first time he played Rarity's jigsaw puzzle, he almost cried because he couldn't do anything. Later, when I saw my brother fight a lot, and then I can put together the puzzles myself, I realized the fun of this game,

Therefore, he did not understand his brother's thoughts very well.

Rarity didn't quite understand his brother's thoughts either. He felt that after so many puzzles, he could put together the puzzle with his eyes closed (an exaggeration), how could it be fun?

But instead of arguing with her brother about it, Rarity changed the subject and asked, "What do you want?"

"I want a lot." Mingming suddenly became distressed, counted with his fingers to his brother, and then asked, "What do you think is better for me?"

"New toys," Rarity said.

"why?"

"If you say you don't want to go to class, Mom will definitely say that your request is too much, and then we won't be able to celebrate our birthday."

Mingming suddenly realized: "Yes! But I really don't want to go to class."

Rarity looked at her brother with a foolish look: "But if you mentioned it, not only will we have to go to class, but mom will be angry, and we won't have a birthday." Are you stupid to mention it?

But Rarity didn't say the second half of the sentence. Although he was young, he had a strong desire to survive.

"Okay," Mingming sighed, but regained his energy quickly, "then can I tell my mother, I want to eat a lot of delicious food?"

"Every time Mom and Dad celebrate, they will make delicious food. When we celebrate our birthday, Mom will definitely make delicious food, and Mom also asks us to invite the children to play at home, so we will definitely prepare more delicious food. Don't you waste the opportunity to ask for something to eat?"

Mingming suddenly realized again, and continued to ask: "How about going out to play?"

"Every time Mom and Dad take us out to play, it's to climb mountains and go to the beach, but we can go on birthdays."

Mingming continued to realize it suddenly, and said happily, "I've decided, I want toys too!"

Rarity was sure that his brother was stupid.

…

After confirming that he wanted a new toy, Mingming Ruirui told Lin Wei the answer that night.

I have to say, Lin Wei was a little surprised, but what she was surprised was not that Rarity wanted a bigger puzzle, but the fact that she didn't mention those unreasonable demands and chose toys.

Lin Wei couldn't help but ask: "Have you made up your mind? Are you sure you want toys?"

Rarity nodded and emphasized, "A bigger puzzle, bigger than the previous one!"

Mingming quickly echoed: "I also want a bigger car, bigger than before!"

Lin Wei could see that the two brothers must have discussed what gift they wanted. However, it was obviously rare to be considerate, and she was relieved that she did not mention the requests that caused her heart attack. She smiled and said, "Mom can agree to you, but whether the supply and marketing cooperative in the county has bigger puzzles and cars, we have to wait for Mom and Dad to see. Only then will you know, if not, you can consider changing a gift, or wait for your parents to ask someone to buy a bigger puzzle and a car."

Rarity said without hesitation, "I still want the puzzle."

Mingming was a little shaken at first and wanted to change it to something else, but seeing his younger brother's firm attitude and thinking of his analysis during the day - class is a must, there will always be delicious food, and there are opportunities to go out to play, so he hesitated and said: "Then, then I still want toys."

The two children made up their minds. The next Sunday, Lin Wei and Zong Shao took the children to the county.

Originally, Lin Wei didn't want to have two children, but she felt that a gift had to be a little mysterious.

But Zong Shao said that since it was a birthday present, they had to choose the one they liked, and they also emphasized that the present should be big this time. .

Lin Wei thought about it and thought that what Zong Shao said was reasonable, so she planned to take the two children with her.

After making the decision, Lin Wei told her two children about going to the supply and marketing cooperative in the county tomorrow to choose gifts.

Her original intention was to make the two children happy, but they were overly happy. They hopped around until midnight and didn't want to get up the next morning.

Lin Wei couldn't move them, so she had to use her trump card: "If you don't get up, the gift will be gone."

Hearing the gift, Mingming sat up suddenly, shouted "my car", and then lay back down after shouting.

Lin Wei: "…"

…

Because the brothers could not get up, and the situation was frequent, and other things were delayed, their departure time was two and a half hours later than expected, and they arrived in the county just in time for lunch.

But they were lucky, maybe because the previous batch of toys sold well, and the supply and marketing agency got another batch, including the bigger puzzle that Rarity wanted.

As for the wooden toy car that Mingming wants, there is no bigger one, but the supply and marketing agency has bought a batch of other toy cars, including a tin toy car that is a replica car. Shout: "I want it!"

It’s just that you get what you pay for. The toy car made of wood before took a little effort, so no ticket was needed and the price was cheap. This toy car is different. It is a completely simulated car and is still made of iron. Not only is it expensive, but it also requires industrial coupons to buy it.

Lin Wei thought about it and couldn't help but say, "You really know how to pick."

Mingming didn't understand the meaning of his mother's words, and said proudly: "Because I'm smart!"

Lin Wei: "…"

No, you are not only smart, but also expensive.

If it wasn't for the promise to buy them gifts, and the fact that they had already paid off the industrial coupons they owed to buy electric fans, Lin Wei really didn't want to spend so much money on a child's toy.

But... Looking at the stares who were clearly expecting, Lin Wei gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, stuffed the bag containing the money and tickets to Zong Shao and said, "Go and pay!" She couldn't see.

Although Lin Wei didn't look when Zong Shao paid, but when he paid and returned the wallet to her, she couldn't help counting the remaining money and coupons.

After finishing the calculation, Lin Wei only had one thought left in her heart, fortunately, she will only have her birthday once a year.
