Single Mom in the Eighties

Kangkang followed Yan Ruxu's guidance and said it again. Although there were some stumbles and words that didn't convey his meaning, the overall flow was much smoother, and he could clearly describe what he had done this afternoon.

Yan Ruxu encouraged him with a smile: "It's great, it's very well said, so that parents can know clearly what you have done."

Kangkang knew from his father's gaze that he had done a good job. Now he was smiling, his chest was bulging, full of pride and pride, and he felt even more proud when he heard his mother's praise. Tell mom and dad again for three days and three nights.

Seeing his small appearance, Yan Ruxu held back his smile and said, "Kangkang, tell your parents one more time according to the level of interest, that is, whichever thing you think is the most fun, you should talk about it first, then talk about the second funniest thing, and then talk about the third thing." Fun."

Kangkang immediately understood the meaning of Yan Ruxu's words, and then he snapped his fingers, muttered with his small mouth and lowered his head to think. After a while, he raised his head, his eyes were full of confidence, and he began to tell one by one again.

Probably it has been recounted once before, and this time it is much more fluent, but there will be a pause in the middle.

After Kangkang finished speaking, he was so tired that his mouth was dry, and after saying to his parents: "I'm finished", he ran to pour boiled water and mix it with cold boiled water to drink.

After quenching his thirst, he ran over to ask his parents if he had spoken well.

Kang Congxin wanted to slap his son, as if he had won a speech contest, and said, "It's great!"

Kangkang danced happily, running around the room in circles.

Kang Congxin looked at his son and smirked for a while, then said to Yan Ruxu: "You always say that Chenxi has a talent for language, and I think our Kangkang is not bad."

Yan Ruxu didn't know what to say for a moment, looked at Kang Congxin's eyes, then his ears, and then his mouth, jokingly said: "You haven't reached the age of deafness, why are you so open-eyed?" Are your eyes talking nonsense?"

Kang Congxin was not annoyed when she teased her, and said, "Anyway, our Kangkang is good at everything."

Yan Ruxu sighed, and said helplessly: "You just hold it up, and I'll see how you do it if you hold it up like a dude!"

Kang Congxin is very confident: "Kangkang won't!"

Yan Ruxu was angry and helpless, Kang Kang ran over and bumped into Kang Congxin's arms, Kang Congxin picked him up and played a throwing game.

After the two of them had had enough fun, Yan Ruxu went on to say: "When you want to tell about several things in the future, follow what your mother just told you, either in chronological order or in order of priority. ,Understand?"

Kangkang was sweating all over, and wanted to take off the little vest outside the autumn clothes, but Yan Ruxu held it down: "Don't take it off, wait until you sweat. You understand what my mother told you just now." Is it gone?"

Kangkang had no choice but to put his hands down, nodded and said with certainty: "Understood."

Hearing this tone, and the erratic little eyes, Yan Ruxu knew that Kangkang didn't take it to heart, and was just perfunctory. She is not in a hurry. Education for children is like this. It needs to be long-term, repeated, and tireless. It is impossible to expect a 5-year-old child to remember it once he says it like an adult.

After they moved here, Aunt Hua stopped coming. She said that she was too old to work anymore. It happened that this year her grandson graduated from high school and failed the college entrance examination. She didn't plan to study anymore. Kang Congxin recommended her The machine tool factory affiliated to the machinery group took the recruitment test and became an intern after being hired. Although he is a worker, he has a high school education, and he is considered to be highly educated among workers. If he studies skills well, he will have many opportunities to succeed in the future.

The eldest grandson no longer needs to study, and the family has saved a lot of money. When the eldest grandson can make money, he can save his own money to marry a wife, and the family can support the two younger ones. Although life is still not rich, it is still enough to make ends meet. Aunt Hua suffered too much when she was young, and now she is rickety when she is less than sixty years old. Although the work in Yan Ruxu's house is not heavy, but after moving, the distance is far away, and she can't afford to run, so she simply doesn't go.

Aunt Hua knew very well that Yan Ruxu could use or not use a nanny, even if she was not hired, she would not have to worry about having no one to help her with housework due to the status of her husband's family and her mother's family.

The reason why Yan Ruxu has been hiring her is largely to take care of her and to repay her family for their help during the most difficult time. But Aunt Hua knew in her heart, what kind of help is that? If others pay for it, we will do our best. At most, my family is more dedicated and responsible, and there is sincerity beyond the employment relationship. Over the years, Yan Ruxu has been really kind to their family. When she came to borrow money when she couldn't make up the money, she would borrow it without saying a word, and even gave him an unknown amount of food. Among other things, Xiao Shishi's first schoolbag, first pencil case, and first pen were all given by Yan Ruxu.

Before moving, Yan Ruxu even called Xiao Shitou home for dinner, encouraged him to study hard, and gave him a copy of the "Chinese-English Dictionary" compiled by the Beijing Institute of Foreign Languages. Yan Ruxu bought it at Guangming Bookstore. The book is not difficult I bought it, but the price of this set of two is really not cheap. After the start of the summer vacation this year, Beijing Middle School officially opened English classes, and included English classes alongside Chinese and mathematics in the senior high school entrance examination. Xiao Shitou has no English foundation at all and is working **** self-study. This Chinese-English dictionary is very important to him.

Giving a child this dictionary is more thoughtful than giving him anything else.

Yan Ruxu also told Aunt Hua that if she needed help and couldn't make enough money, just ask, and she would help if she could.

With her words, Aunt Hua was extremely grateful. She talked to her daughter-in-law, Zhan Xiuchun, and said, "Editor-in-chief Yan looks cold and heartless, but he is actually the most affectionate."

Without Aunt Hua's help, Yan Ruxu's little life is still comfortable, and she still doesn't touch the spring water with her ten fingers. Kang Congxin took care of the housework, including cooking, washing clothes, sweeping the floor, and washing dishes. The Kang family's nanny came two or three times a week to help with cleaning, laundry, etc., and then cooked some meals and put them in the refrigerator. Whenever Yan Liangshen made something delicious at home, he always asked Sister Huang to make more and send it over.

No matter it is closer to the military family courtyard or the municipal family courtyard, it is more convenient for both sides to deliver things to them. One day, Yan Ruxu suddenly found that the recent expenditure was much less than before. After a little reflection, he realized that the lack was on food. The hometowns on both sides always gave food. The living standard did not drop, but the money was actually saved. up.

On the third night after they moved here, they formally invited their neighbors over for dinner.

To show solemnity, the night before, Kang Congxin took Yan Ruxu and Kangkang to invite them from door to door. The other houses were relatively normal, and after a polite refusal, they said that the whole family would definitely come over tomorrow night. When they arrived at the last house, which was Qi Nianchun's house downstairs, they knocked on the door for a long time before someone came to answer the door.

The person who opened the door was a man in his twenties and thirties, who had half or half of his imagination with Qi Nianchun. He was taken aback when he saw Kang Congxin, then looked at Yan Ruxu behind Kang Congxin, then smiled and said, "Is it Vice President Kang? Come in, my father is in the room."

There was a lot of noise in the room, as if there were a lot of people.

The man came in from Xin's family because of Kang, and said apologetically, "Our family and my sister's family are all here, and several children were playing together, so I didn't hear your knock on the door."

He only saw Kangkang at this time, and immediately bent his body slightly, leaned down and said a few words to Kangkang, very warm, obviously he also loved the child. Yan Ruxu's sense of him suddenly became better.

The joking people in the living room saw Kang Congxin's family coming, and immediately stopped joking. Qi Nianchun had a kind and satisfied smile on his face, and there was a two or three-year-old child on his back. He froze for a moment, as if he hadn't changed from the role of the kind grandfather.

He smiled awkwardly, and stretched out his hand to take off the child on his back, but the child on his back seemed to be growing on his body, and he smiled and refused to come down. He tried twice but failed for fear of hurting the child. Well, it was a woman in her twenties next to her who carried the child down, Qi Nianchun was able to straighten her back and talk to Kang Congxin this time.

The few people who were sitting or standing in the living room stood a little forward and greeted the visitors with a smile. The children stopped making noise and looked at Kangkang curiously. It can be seen that this is a very polite family.

Yan Ruxu didn't see Zhou Aiqing, and looked into the room calmly. The structure of the upstairs and downstairs houses is exactly the same. Yan Ruxu found that the doors of other rooms were closed, only the door between the bathroom and the kitchen was tightly closed.

Yan Ruxu withdrew his gaze, greeted the female relatives in a friendly manner, and after hearing Qi Nianchun introduce his children and grandchildren, he said: "I will definitely go on time, and then we will have a good drink!"

When the notice arrived and a reply was received, Kang Congxin's family left and Qi Nianchun's family sent them to the door.

After closing the door at his own house and sending Kang Kang to wash his face and hands, Yan Ruxu wentssip with Kang again: "Zhou Aiqing should be hiding in the room. Outside the house, the family is reconciled as before, the scumbag is forgiven, and the children and grandchildren are around." Knee, she alone became a bad person. Now it’s like this, and it’s uncomfortable to delay the divorce. Did you notice what Qi Nianchun said just now? He said that I will definitely go, not us. Treat Zhou Aiqing like a family."

Yan Ruxu snorted, and said: "At the beginning, I was in love to the death. For a young woman, for the so-called true love, I gave up the relationship, children, and ethics of my ex-wife for decades. Now that I have played enough, I will start Longing for family happiness, and treating the young woman like a soiled rag, throwing it away."

She wasn't complaining about Zhou Aiqing's injustice, but she felt that even though Zhou Aiqing violated morals, at his age and status at the time, in front of Qi Nianchun, who was more than twice her age and whose status was vastly different, she was Absolute weakness. No matter if she was lured by power, wealth, status, or coaxed by sweet words, Zhou Aiqing, a little girl with little knowledge, would definitely not be able to escape.

Even after hearing Kang Congxin talk about Qi Nianchun's many achievements, she can't respect him just because the bones of his wife who has been married for decades are not cold and he is about to marry his ex-wife and niece.

Kang Congxin pinched Yan Ruxu's face with a smile, and said, "Okay, don't worry about other people's business, go and see Kangkang, don't let him play with cold water."

Although Kang Congxin saw that his children were good everywhere, and wished to hold them and be used to them, but when it came to cultivating their children's independence, they were not ambiguous at all. Now the child washes his face, brushes his teeth, washes his feet, and washes his socks. Except for the difficulty of washing his hair, he can basically take care of himself.

Yan Ruxu patted Kang Congxin's buttocks, hummed, and walked away with her face twisted. This person is really boring, even if you want to chat with him about other people's gossip, you can't even chat.

Kang re-looked at her back and laughed.

In the bathroom, Kangkang splashed the water and sang nonsense in his mouth: "I do my own thing, I am a good boy, I can wash my face, brush my teeth, and wash clothes, la la la..."

In the evening, after the family washed up and changed into pajamas, they all went to Kangkang's bedroom. Yan Ruxu and his wife are training their children to fall asleep independently. The small room that Kangkang lived in before was regarded as part of the master bedroom, not completely independent. After moving to a new house, Kangkang has his own room completely, which is arranged according to his preferences. His favorite toys are placed on the Duobao Pavilion-like cabinet, which can be seen every day when he opens his eyes. He especially likes his room. However, before going to bed every day, he is extremely dependent on his parents, and he must be accompanied by his parents.

Yan Ruxu and his wife were also worried that the child would not adapt to the new environment. They stayed with Kangkang for the past two nights and did not go back until he was asleep. Kangkang talked about the little sister who was lying on Qi Nianchun's back just now and refused to get off. He thought that although she was a bit naughty, she was very cute and looked like a little apple. If there was such a little girl following behind his **** all day and calling "brother" coquettishly, Kangkang would think it would be great.

Kangkang suddenly remembered what his grandma had said to him when he was at grandma's house yesterday afternoon. He originally planned to tell his parents as soon as he got home, but he forgot and only remembered now.

He said, "Mom, I want a little sister too."

Yan Ruxu looked at her son in surprise, and then figured out what Bai Fengmei had said to her son. Although the mother-in-law didn't mention it explicitly and Yan, but what she said often revealed the meaning of urging the couple to have a child.

But at that time, Yan Ruxu hadn't thought about having a second child, so when Bai Fengmei mentioned related topics, she avoided answering. Unexpectedly, Bai Fengmei turned her mind on Kangkang.

Yan Ruxu smiled and asked: "If you have a little sister, half of your snacks and toys will be given to her. If she cries, you will have to help her to coax her, hug her, feed her, wash her diapers, Do you want to?"

Kangkang thought very seriously, the expression on his face changed from worry to joy, as if he was struggling. After a long while, Kangkang nodded and said with certainty: "Yes, I will make delicious food. Leave half of it for my sister." When it was over, she was a little bit reluctant, and said in a low voice, "Leave a half for my sister."

Yan Ruxu laughed, held his son's face and kissed him deeply, and said: "Good son, even if you have a younger sister, you won't steal your delicious food. Mom and Dad will buy another one for her. She will be Except for mom and dad, the person closest to you by blood in this world, she will like your brother like mom and dad. If you really have a younger sister, the three of us will love her together, okay?"

Kangkang smiled. At first, he thought that if he had a younger sister, there would be good points and bad points, but now that his mother said so, there is only good left over there, and he couldn’t wait to want a sister. sister.

"Mom, when will that younger sister come home?" Kang Kang raised his innocent and yearning face and asked.

Yan Ruxu and Kang Zaixin looked at each other, and answered him: "When you grow up a bit more. Mom and Dad just want to take care of you as a baby right now. When you grow up to be a young boy, Mom and Dad will have a younger sister."

"Oh", Kangkang was a little disappointed, but his heart was filled with unstoppable sweetness. He snuggled into his father's arms, couldn't help hugging his mother's arms, and giggled.

With this little episode, Kangkang's original drowsiness was gone, and he was so excited that Kang Congxin played war games with him for a while to consume some energy before letting him fall asleep.

Yan Ruxu lay down under the blanket, yawned, and said, "Don't be another kid, it's too noisy!"

Kang turned off the light again, sneaked in with a smile, hugged Yan Ruxu and helped her tuck the quilt, and said, "You used to take care of the child yourself, and I didn't hear that you thought the child was making a fuss."

Yan Ruxu slipped into Kang Congxin's arms, wiped away the tears from yawning with his pajamas, and muttered, "Yeah, this kid has been very easy to take care of since he was a child. but he's been naughty and mischievous since you came back."

This is probably the subconscious behavior of the child. If the mother takes him by herself, he must be sensible, not disturb others, and save the trouble for the mother. With the father, he has the support, so he can be unscrupulous and liberate his nature.

Kang Congxin felt a little sore in his heart, but he was also a little thankful. He kissed Yan Ruxu on the forehead, listened to her regular breathing, and soon fell asleep.

When Yan Ruxu woke up in the morning, Kang Congxin had already cooked breakfast, and Kangkang also washed his face and brushed his teeth to improve his personal hygiene. For breakfast, Aunt Hua sent pancakes yesterday, and Kang Congxin freshly made scallion and egg soup.

Yan Ruxu took a bite of the pancake, ate some pickles made by Aunt Hua, and said regretfully, "I won't be able to eat the meals made by Aunt Hua often in the future."

Kangkang has always had Aunt Hua's family in his life since he was a child. Now although he has a father, grandparents, uncles, aunts, older brothers and sisters, Aunt Hua and Brother Xiaoshitou are in his care. She has always held a very important position in her heart, and she cried because of that Aunt Hua that day.

But the child is also very adaptable. He comforted his mother and said: "Mom, Grandma Hua told me that if I want to eat her cooking, I will go to her home and find her. I have also agreed with Brother Xiaoshitou." , I want to go to his house to play often. I also made an agreement with Nahua Grandma, if she misses me, she will come and see me!"

Yan Ruxu: "Okay, tell your parents when you want to go, and we will take you there."

Not long after, Sister Huang and Xiaoxiu came over one after another, and they were in charge of the dinner at home tonight. Sister Huang made a menu and brought some ingredients from home. Kang Congxin only briefly browsed the menu, deleted two more expensive dishes, and replaced them with ordinary home-cooked dishes. This is just a family gathering among neighbors, and a regular meal is fine.

Yan Ruxu always didn't care about these things, and just said "hard work" to the two of them politely, and followed Kang to go out again. Before going out, she locked the doors of the master bedroom and Kangkang's bedroom, not because she was afraid of the two of them stealing things, but just not used to it.

When I hired Aunt Hua back then, it took me a long time to get used to Aunt Hua going in and out of the house, and Aunt Hua spent most of her time in the kitchen, only going to the main room when she helped clean up the house, even if she went to the main room , and rarely go to her bedroom.

She is much better now, at least she can accept outsiders coming to the house, and it is fine to stay in the living room and kitchen, but thinking that these two people may enter her bedroom, she feels uncomfortable all over.

On the way, she asked Kang Congxin: "Tell me, am I being too stingy?" She didn't worry about gains and losses like this before, but now she is more scruples and thinks more.

Kang Congxin turned to look at her: "This is your home, it's not mean to lock your own door."

Kang Congxin pampered her unconditionally, whatever she did was right. Even though she knew that Kang Congxin had a filter for her, after listening to Kang Congxin's words, her worries disappeared.

Yan Ruxu laughed and said, "I'm afraid that Xiu'er will go back and talk to Grandma Kangkang about something."

Kang took the time to rub Xia Yanru's head again, "You!"

Yan Ruxu: "Drive hard!"

Today, the family is entertaining guests, the husband and wife both get off work early, the banquet is set up, and the guests for the banquet have come early. As expected, Qi Nianchun came here by himself, but when the wine was half full, Zhou Aiqing knocked on the door and came over by himself, bringing some fruit, and smiled and apologized to Yan Ruxu as soon as he entered the door, saying: "Is that right? Wait, I was delayed by something, so I came here as soon as I finished my work."

Yan Ruxu invited her in, led her to the dining room to sit down, quickly glanced at Qi Nianchun, and saw that his face was livid and he stared at Zhou Aiqing unkindly. Zhou Aiqing didn't seem to notice, sat down next to Qi Nianchun, and told him in a low voice: "You are not in good health, drink less."

Qi Nianchun's face turned greener, he picked up his wine glass and turned to talk to Liu Zhang next to him.

Seeing this, Yan Ruxu felt uncomfortable for Zhou Aiqing, so she hurriedly added a new pair of bowls and chopsticks, poured her drinks, and covered up the embarrassment.

Moving to a family home and living with neighbors, Yan Ruxu can adapt quite well. The neighbors are more qualified, and the hostesses also have their own jobs. They usually go to work and take care of their husband and children after work. There is no extra work. Time to come out and do chores.

The sons and daughters of Qi Nianchun's family downstairs often come here, chatting and joking with each other. Fortunately, Kang Congxin paid attention to the quality of the house when building the house, and the sound insulation effect between floors is better, so as not to affect his own house.

Yan Ruxu once met Zhou Aiqing at the gate of the courtyard, her face was very white, and she couldn't hide her haggardness. A young woman in her twenties, like a small cabbage that had lost its moisture, became dry and her eyes were black and blue. One tablet, apparently chronic sleep deprivation.

She smiled and talked to Yan Ruxu, and the two of them walked back side by side, casually chatting about things, social affairs, etc., Yan Ruxu also catered to her, and quickened her pace.

When approaching the entrance of the building, Zhou Aiqing suddenly turned her head and said to her, "Editor Yan, what do you think men with money and status like them fear most?"

Yan Ruxu was taken aback for a moment, then said perfunctorily, "People are different, so it's hard to say."

Zhou Aiqing smiled at her, smiling so frightenedly that she hurriedly bid farewell to her and went home.

After meeting Kang Congxin and telling him what happened just now, Yan Ruxu said: "I had goosebumps on my back at that time, and I always felt that she was holding back some big moves. I think Qi Nianchun might be in trouble."

Kang Congxin took off her clothes and looked at the back, it was white and smooth, he took advantage of the situation and kissed her, and said: "I will talk to Qi Nianchun, don't force people to back down."

Yan Ruxu didn't know the details, but from what she saw, it was that Qi Nian's family worked together to drive Zhou Aiqing out, but Zhou Aiqing would rather suffer psychological torture every day and stay here than divorce.

Yan Ruxu can somewhat understand Zhou Aiqing. She has no education, and her job is only obtained by Qi Nianchun. She married a man with children older than her under the burden of scorn and contempt. Since then, she has a family, money, and social status. There was a sudden rise, but one day, this man didn't want her anymore, and she was about to be beaten back to her original form. For her, it was tantamount to losing everything.

This woman has lost everything. If she becomes crazy and ignores her, then Qi Nianchun will not be able to bear it. Hearing what Yan Ruxu said about Qi Nianchun, although he was contemptuous of his emotional indifference, after all, he has made a lot of contributions to the country and the people. It is not easy for the country to cultivate a mechanical talent. The future machinery group relies on him There are still many things to do, and the most important thing is that if something happens to him, it will bring a lot of trouble to Kang Congxin's work.

On this point, Yan Liangshen handled it very well. They also wanted to get rid of the burden. One happily went to a new life, but the other was entangled here.

In the blink of an eye, it will be late December, and Kangkang’s birthday will be a week away. Last summer, Kangkang participated in the birthday party of his classmate Wei Minxing, which made him very envious. Only then did he know that his birthday can still be celebrated like this. At that time, Yan Ruxu promised the child that he would also hold a birthday party for him. Kangkang always remembered that he looked at the calendar every day and reminded his parents from time to time, lest the adults would forget such a big event.

Kangkang's birthday is on Monday, and he must spend it with his family. Otherwise, Bai Fengmei will definitely not agree. She calculated the date, and the day is Monday, December 28, so the child's birthday party will be moved one day earlier. It will be held on Sunday, so that there will be no delay in the two visits.

In fact, Kangkang's birthday last year was even more grand. It was his first birthday after his father came back. It is Kangkang's birthday and the first important festival for the small family. Bai Fengmei and the others take Kangkang's birthday very seriously, and they want to celebrate Kangkang's birthday together. Uncle Xi Yuanzheng even specially ordered a two-tier cake for him. It's so good that Kangkang can still recall the taste. have eaten!

In the evening, when he came back from school, Kangkang said to his father, "I want to call Uncle Yuanzheng."

Kang Congxin wondered, "What do you need to ask him?"

Kangkang's eyes flickered, and he said, "I want to invite Uncle Yuanzheng to my birthday party."

Kang Congxin laughed and said, "All you invite are children who are your age. It's not appropriate for Xi Yuanzheng to come and participate."

While listening, Yan Ruxu snorted and said, "He wants to invite Xi Yuanzheng over there, and he's obviously thinking about his cake."

Confused, Kangkang lowered his head and poked his finger. Kang Congxin patted Kangkang's head with a smile, and said, "Mom and Dad will buy the cake for you. Don't bother Uncle Yuanzheng."

Kang Congxin's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Is that for two days?"

Kang Congxin nodded, "Mom and Dad will buy cakes for you at your birthday party, and Second Aunt will buy cakes for you when your family celebrates your birthday."

Kangkang cheered again.

Yan Ruxu poured cold water on the child, saying: "Your birthday party will only be held this time, and it will not be held in the future, because my mother promised you to keep your word. From now on, we will only have it once a year, and our family will get together to help you celebrate."

Kangkang agreed straightforwardly, immersed in the joy of eating two birthday cakes, and was not unhappy. He picked up a plastic sword and ran around shouting "hahahaha".

Yan Ruxu looked at him and Kang Congxin and whispered: "You still said that my son is not vain! I started thinking about the birthday party a month ago, always asking, always asking, lest I don't do it for him, I have been with those who have a good time The little friend promised to invite others to eat delicious food on his birthday. Teacher Qiu told me that because he wanted to attend his birthday party, many children began to curry favor with him. Then, I see that he is a little overwhelmed by the praise, and I don't know how many people will be brought to the birthday party."

Kang Congxin looked at his son, with a loving smile all over his face, and said: "We prepare more food, as much as the children can eat. Didn't you say that we only hold this birthday party, and let the children be willful once?" .”

Yan Ruxu pointed at his head, not knowing what to say to him.

On Sunday, December 27th, Bai Fengmei brought chefs, Xiaoxiu, and Yan Liangshen sent Sister Huang and Sun Min to form a huge chef team, which was even stronger than the last time the neighbors were entertained. Yan Ruxu originally thought that instead of bothering the two families, he could just buy some cakes, snacks, and all kinds of snacks that children like to eat, and then order some meals from the restaurant. But Bai Fengmei said that this was Kangkang's first treat, and she must not let the child lose face in front of the children.

At noon, several people made a large table of children's favorite food, and Kang Congxin also brought the cakes that had been ordered. One after another, parents sent their children over. By noon, more than ten children had already arrived at home.

Like a little adult, Kangkang greeted the children at the door, led them in, let them drink soda and eat snacks, arranged seats for everyone, shared cakes, and accepted everyone's blessings.

Yan Ruxu saw that he was doing things methodically and methodically, with surprise and pride on his face, she never thought her child could do so well, apparently she would observe carefully when visiting other people's homes, and learned a lot from him .

Kang Congxin had the pride of "my family has a child who has just grown up".

Bai Fengmei smiled on the side. His gaze also kept on Kangkang, thinking in his heart, he is indeed a descendant of my Kang family, he is indeed excellent!

That night, Yan Ruxu and Kang Congxin discussed their children all the time, and they didn't fall asleep until midnight. Yan Ruxu told him interesting stories about the child when he was a child, and said in childish words, "Although it has been many years, every time I think about it, it seems like it happened yesterday."

Kang Congxin listened to these things as many times as Yan Ruxu said, but every time Yan Ruxu said it was as if it was the first time, and Kang Congxin listened to it three times and five times as if it was the first time. I am full of interest and never tire of listening to it.

Yan Ruxu said: "I am very happy to see Kangkang like this today, but also a little disappointed. I always feel that the child is getting older and will be farther and farther away from us. I hope that he will be like he was when he was a child. My eyes are full of mothers, and I want my children to go to a wider world and fly freely, so contradictory!"

As she spoke, she felt that she was hypocritical. Kangkang is only 5 years old, and he is still too early to become an adult. It is too early to think about this now.

Kang Congxin rubbed the clasped hands under the quilt, and said: "This is what every family has to go through, just like when you gave birth to him, it might not be a kind of separation. He will grow up and become an independent person." Individuals have their own hobbies and life, make like-minded friends, meet a girl they like in the future, fall in love, get married, and have children. And we will be the strongest backing for the child, helping him when he is in trouble, Encourage him when he encounters setbacks, be happy with him when he is happy, and support him forever."

Yan Ruxu pressed against his chest hard, as if trying to get into his body, and said: "You are such a good father, you make me want to cry." Yan Ruxu suddenly smiled, rubbing against his chest Looking up at his chin, he said, "I thought you would be sad with me, but I didn't expect you to think about it."

Kang Congxin moved his head twice with Yan Ruxu on his chest, and said: "The chick will leave the nest when it grows up. This is a natural law. No matter how far it goes, it is our baby."

Yan Ruxu rubbed his chest and nodded. She thought of Bai Fengmei, whose husband was a soldier, and sent all three sons to the battlefield. She didn't know how Bai Fengmei felt when he sent his sons away.

"We have to treat Grandma Kangkang better in the future and go back to see her often." Yan Ru said with emotion.

"Yes," Kang Congxin agreed as if he could feel the meaning in Yan Ruxu's words.

After experiencing this "big scene" of being in charge of the family, Kangkang grew up suddenly, and had his own ideas and opinions on many things. Yan Ruxu was very pleased with this growth. She used to be most worried about her child growing up in the A single family will become flawed in character, cowardly and without assertiveness. Now the children dare to express their opinions and have their own ideas, and they are growing in the direction that Yan Ruxu expects.

Xi Yuanzheng did not attend Kangkang's birthday party, but he still gave him a gift the day after Kangkang's birthday. It was a very delicate plastic gun with a leather holster that could be worn across the body. Very majestic.

Kangkang liked it so much, he immediately asked his father to help him dress up, and walked around the house, hoping that the next morning, he could go to the kindergarten and show it to the children.

He enthusiastically said to Xi Yuanzheng: "Uncle Yuanzheng, let's have dinner at home tonight."

Xi Yuanzheng was flattered and said, "Oh? What do you want uncle to eat?"

Kangkang's eyes widened. He obviously didn't expect Xi Yuanzheng to ask him this question. He doesn't know how to cook. How would he know? He looked at his mother as if asking for help, and her mother looked at him with a smile, as if she didn't understand. He meant, and went to ask his favorite father for help.

Love, if you open your mouth like this, things can be big or small. Therefore, the husband and wife wanted to find an opportunity to criticize the child's problem, and let him know that he must bear the responsibility for what he said casually, and the opportunity came just in time.

Xi Yuanzheng is not an outsider, and he has a big heart. He will not be angry if he educates his children through him. Right now he is watching Kangkang deflated with great interest.

Kangkang held his small mouth and thought for a while, at first he felt aggrieved, pouted, helpless and pitiful, after waiting for a while, seeing that his parents ignored him, his big dark eyes rolled around a few times, and then they clicked again. finger, looked into the kitchen room, then sniffed, and said: "Dad, Mom, I don't know how to set the menu, can you,
