After returning from Chen Xi's house, Tang Xin still felt a little heavy. After returning home, she went directly to her aunt's study and saw two old ladies chatting happily in the room. Her depressed mood instantly improved a lot.

"Tangbao is back?" Seeing Mrs. Tang waving happily, "Come on, get on the kang and warm yourself up. Is it cold outside now?"

Auntie also moved her position inside, leaving a space for Tang Xin. Tang Xin took off her shoes and got on the kang, squeezed next to the two old ladies, and sighed comfortably: "It's more comfortable on the kang at home. ah."

"How was your time at Chen Xi's house today? Did you eat well?" Auntie asked, stroking the broken hair from Tang Xin's forehead.

"Well, the fried noodles made by Aunt Gu, the nanny of Chen Xi's family, were delicious today. Chen Xi and I each ate such a big bowl." Tang Xin gestured with her grandma and aunt with her hands.

"It's such a big bowl. How can you and Chen Xi have such small appetites?" Mrs. Tang looked at the big bowl her granddaughter was showing and asked.

"Isn't that right? We both didn't want to move after eating, but it was so delicious that we couldn't help it." Tang Xin said sheepishly. She was over forty years old in her past and present lives, and it's not like she had never tasted good food. Food, but I still couldn’t help eating too much today, and I was embarrassed to say it.

"You little good-for-nothing, how is Grandma Chen Xi doing?" Auntie nodded Tang Xin's nose.

"She is not in good health. Chen Xi said that since her grandfather passed away, her health has not been as good as before." Tang Xin buried her head in her aunt's arms.

"It's normal. We have been together for a lifetime, and no one can bear it when one person is missing suddenly." Auntie patted Tang Xin, and at her age, she was quite open to this.

Mrs. Tang had never met Chen Xi's grandma, but when her aunt said this, she understood instantly, so she nodded.

At this time, Tang Ma came in, holding a porcelain basin in her hand. "Have a try on the frozen persimmons that have just been replaced." As he said this, he put the porcelain basin on the Kang table. Looking at the big yellow persimmons soaking in the water, Tang Xin really wanted to try them, but he couldn't. There is no room.

"No, Mom, there's no room in my stomach. Let me digest it for a while." Tang Xin waved her hand.

Tang's mother glanced at her daughter funny, took out the persimmons from the basin, dried them with a clean handkerchief, put them on a small plate, and then handed them to Mrs. Tang and her aunt respectively. They picked up the persimmons and ate them. stand up.

Seeing the two old ladies eating deliciously, Tang Xin was also greedy. These big persimmons looked sweet. But I patted my bulging belly and said, forget it.

The next day was New Year's Day, and the time entered 1964. Since the Tang family all lived in the courtyard and were close to each other, Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang decided not to return to the courtyard this year. It just so happens that the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law is almost in her confinement during the Chinese New Year, so there's no need to worry about it, just celebrate the festival in the courtyard.

According to the usual practice in previous years, Tang Xin's family went to the Chen family to spend New Year's Day together. This year can't be special, especially since Tang Ma and Tang Xin came back after being away for so long. The last time I went to Chen's house, I didn't see Tang Xin's uncle and aunt, so the family discussed it and decided that this year, their family of four would It's a bit harder. I'll go to Chen's house for lunch at noon, and then I'll go to my uncle's house for dinner in the evening.

It happened that Mrs. Tang and Mr. Tang were both at Tang Xin's house. This year, my aunt stopped moving and waited for them at home. In the afternoon, she, Mr. and Mrs. Tang strolled to her uncle's house to wait for them.

This arrangement was quite good, so early in the morning Tang Xin's family of four set out again with the things they had bought in advance.

Every New Year's Day, their family of four would come back. Although they had just been here a few days ago, Uncle Gu was still waiting at the door early in the morning. He saw their family of four coming from a distance, and hurriedly stepped forward to open the door to them. He greeted: "Master and Madam were just talking about whether you guys can come?"

"Hello, Uncle Gu!" Tang Xin and others greeted.

"Hey, okay, okay, come in, come in."

"Hello, aunt and uncle, Zhanbo, how are you, Tangbao." The two cousins ​​heard the voice and came out of the house to greet them.

"Second brother, third brother." Tang Xin greeted, and the two brothers walked up to the family affectionately and took the things from Tang's father and Zhan Bo's hands.

"Aunts, uncles, grandparents, they are all looking forward to you. Has the sugar baby grown taller again?" the second cousin asked.

"That's right, we haven't seen each other for nearly a year. I see that you two have grown a lot." Tang Ma smiled and looked at her nephews. Each of them has grown into a young man. She looked at them standing with her son. , I have to sigh again, time is not forgiving.

"Why are you standing at the door chatting? You two also quickly let your aunt and uncle into the house. It's very cold outside." After waiting for a while and seeing no one, my aunt came out and stood at the door chatting when she saw a few people. , and hurriedly called out to greet them into the house.

"Little sister, we haven't seen each other for nearly a year. How are you doing? Sugar baby, come here and let aunt take a good look." Aunt held the two of them one by one and entered the house.

As soon as Tang Xin entered the house, she saw her grandmother holding Sister Gu's hand and looking at her, "Grandpa, grandma, uncle, Sister Gu." Tang Xin and her brother said hello to several people.

"Grandma, what's wrong with Sister-in-law Gu?" Tang Xin stepped forward curiously.

"It's nothing, it's just winter. I've had frostbite on my hands before. In winter, they tend to swell when exposed to cold water." Aunt Gu explained with a smile, and then took her hand away from Mrs. Chen, "Madam, look , I’m really fine, it’s just that the swelling is scary, but actually it doesn’t delay my work at all. It’s been like this for so many years, but the swelling is severe this year.”

"I told you, what kind of work is there? Let them young people do it. Didn't our family hire a nanny again? How old are you? Do you still think you are young? Your body and bones cannot keep up with young people. It's over." Grandma said as she let go of Sister-in-law Gu's hand.

"I know, I know, isn't it a holiday today? I thought it would be hard for Miss and the others to come here, especially since Miss and Sugar Baby haven't been back for such a long time. I want to cook them some authentic food from our sea market. I will Try to get as little water as possible." Mrs. Gu responded with a smile, rubbing her hands back and forth from time to time.

Tang Xin stepped forward and took a look, and found that Mrs. Gu's hands were indeed red and swollen, and there were small cuts on her fingers. It hurt to look at them. "Sister-in-law Gu, why don't you put something on your hands after using the water?"

"What are you touching? Oh, my hands tend to get chapped this winter. I heard that you can apply some lard on them, but who is willing to do that? Even if you are willing, it is inconvenient to touch oily hands." Aunt Gu didn't care too much. He waved his hand and said, "Who hasn't survived like this? It will be nice when the weather gets warmer."

Put on hand cream, Tang Xin was about to blurt out, but suddenly paused. It seems that there is no hand cream yet, and it seems that there are no such things as colorful and clam oil. Tang Xin suddenly thought of this, and the prosperity of the prosperous age must have it again. New product.

"Sister-in-law, please find some Vaseline and put it on your hands to protect your hands." Vaseline has been used in my country for a long time, but it is mainly used in pharmaceutical and daily chemical factories. Fortunately, she had it at home. Mrs. Gu nodded and agreed. After a while, she would put some on it after cooking, and then went back to the kitchen to help cook.

Tang Xin looked at her uncle with bright eyes. When the uncle saw this little look, he knew it, so he laughed loudly and said, "Sugar baby, do you have any good ideas? Tell your uncle quickly."

"Let's go to our study room and let your mother and the others chat here. You guys, stop hanging around here and go play." Grandpa also noticed it and said.

When the brothers looked at it, they thought, well, there's nothing going on without them, so they can go play by themselves, so they all got up and left to find Sister Gu's grandson.

"Then I'll go and have a look too." Father Tang watched his father-in-law and brother-in-law leading his daughter away, and he also got up and followed them.

"We can't let the child calm down for a while. We just got home and we haven't said a few words yet." Grandma muttered as she looked at the few people walking to the study.

"Mom, it's okay. Don't you have me with you? Sugar Baby's little head must have some good ideas. My dad and the others are worried." Tang's mother sat next to Mrs. Chen and gently rubbed her Holding shoulders.

Old Mrs. Chen also knew that what they were going to talk about was serious business, but she couldn't help but mumble a few words about the fact that the sugar baby had just come back.

On the other hand, Mr. Chen brought his uncle, Tang's father, and Tang Xin into the study, and gently closed the door of the study. After everyone sat down, Mr. Chen said, "Tangbao, now you can talk about it, what new ideas do you have?" Already?"
