"Hungry!" Early in the morning, on the kang, Ji Xiang lay on Ye Feiyang's body, pinching and scratching Ye Feiyang's fat and tender paws here and there. When Ye Feiyang woke up, he immediately pursed his mouth He looked aggrieved.

Ye Feiyang was downed by two cups yesterday at a banquet in the village, and now his head was still hurting, he stretched out his hand to rub his temples a few times, and patted Jixiang's back with the other hand: "Good boy. "

Jixiang immediately hit the snake on the stick, and said in a milky voice: "Tiger Huhu is hungry, Bai Bai is hungry, Jixiang is hungry!" Huhu refers to the two tiger cubs, and Baibai is naturally the white fox. This name was Jixiang's own idea, so it became the names of the three of them.

Ye Feiyang couldn't help laughing, this little guy still knows how to put himself last?I couldn't help teasing him: "Oh? Why didn't I hear Huhu and Baibai say that I was hungry? I only heard a little pig crying that I was hungry."

Jixiang started rolling in Ye Feiyang's arms, coquettishly: "Father! I'm hungry!"

How could Ye Feiyang be willing to be really hungry for this little baby? After lying down for a while, he felt that his head was not so uncomfortable, so he got up. He only felt sweaty and uncomfortable. , so he still had to cover himself with a thin quilt at night. The little guy was very tired of Ye Feiyang and always wanted to fall asleep in his arms. As a result, Ye Feiyang was sweating every morning when he woke up.

The underwear had already been unbuttoned by Jixiang when he was sleeping, and Ye Feiyang didn't bother to buckle it again, so he changed the little guy's clothes, pushed the quilt aside, and said: "I'm going to cook, Jixiang is waiting for me here, okay?" good?"

Ji Xiang nodded his head, and his voice was crisp and tender: "Okay."

Ye Feiyang smiled and kissed Jixiang's forehead, quickly went to the kitchen to wash some millet and boiled it, then took out the fermented flour, kneaded a few small steamed buns of different shapes, and finally made some bigger ones Hey, put it in a steamer and steam it.Only then did he clap his hands, took a shower with a bucket of cold water, and immediately felt refreshed.Back in the house, Jixiang really sat obediently on the bed and played with the white fox.

The little guy is almost one year old now, and his speech is becoming more and more fluent, not to mention the villagers, even the well-informed Liu Shangshu and the old doctor praised him for being extremely smart, how can other children speak so fluently at the age of one? of?Ye Feiyang didn't feel anything special. In modern times, there are many one-year-old children who can talk. In contrast, he is more concerned about Jixiang's body, and his health is more important than anything else.

While the steamed buns were still steaming, Ye Feiyang first made half a bowl of light salt water for Jixiang to drink, the little guy drank it up in the blink of an eye with his small mouth, and finally, he patted his stomach and looked at Ye Feiyang pitifully: " Hungry."

Ye Feiyang picked him up and kissed him: "Hey, the breakfast is still steaming, and you can eat it later, let's call grandpa and brother to eat first, shall we?"

"Okay, let's go!"

The little guy has just learned to walk, he is not walking smoothly, wobbly, but he likes to walk by himself, Ye Feiyang is also willing to accompany him, so he put the little guy on the ground, bent over to protect him, and followed him slowly out Walk.Jixiang walks very cutely. He walks a little bit forward with his short legs. When he feels tired after walking for a while, he will stop to rest, or hold Ye Feiyang's hand placed beside him. .Walking staggeringly all the way to the next yard, Ye Feiyang's waist became a little sore.

"Grandpa, grandpa!" Jixiang called to the door.

"Hey, Jixiang is here!" Liu Shangshu came to open the door in person with a big belly. When he saw Jixiang, he immediately smiled and frowned, bent down to pick him up, and kissed his cheek: "Jixiang is so good."

Jixiang hugged Liu Shangshu's neck and giggled: "I'm hungry, eat!"

Liu Shangshu had no resistance to Jixiang's cute appearance, and when he heard that he was hungry, he immediately said, "Are you hungry? I have some snacks here, do you want to eat?"

"want!"

I knew the little guy was waiting for this!Ye Feiyang quickly grabbed Liu Shangshu: "Lord Liu, dim sum can't be eaten as a meal. If you give Ji Xiang dim sum now, he won't eat it after breakfast."

Liu Shangshu knows that Ye Feiyang is very concerned about Jixiang's food, and he is so careful that he is almost strict. Many children's favorite food is given to Jixiang in small quantities, and Jixiang will not let go no matter how much he cries.He even asked the old doctor specifically, but the old doctor said that Ye Feiyang's approach was the best for Ji Xiang. After that, Liu Shangshu also began to listen to Ye Feiyang.

Seeing the snacks flying from his mouth, Jixiang stopped immediately, twisted his body and began to act coquettishly: "I'm hungry! I'm so hungry!"

Seeing this, Ye Feiyang hugged him from Liu Shangshu's arms, saw that the old doctor and Fang Zhengjie had also come out, and immediately walked back: "Hey, let's go home and eat, we won't be hungry after eating. "

Jixiang watched the small courtyard getting farther and farther away, and finally cried out: "I want to eat some snacks! Bad dad!"

Ye Feiyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. If he didn't eat the snacks, he would become a bad father. He kissed his little face and coaxed: "Hey, Dad will make you some snacks later, okay?"

With teardrops hanging from the corners of Ji Xiang's eyes, his mouth was pouting, he nodded his head aggrievedly, and his eyes were still looking at the small courtyard of the old doctor's house reluctantly.The adults couldn't stop laughing.

While eating breakfast, Bianjiang sent a letter again. Liu Shangshu took the letter and the small bundle from the guard, and handed it to Ye Feiyang after only one glance: "Qi Shu gave it to you."

Fang Zhengjie immediately took Jixiang over so that Ye Feiyang could read the letter. Ye Feiyang went into the back room with something, and came out again after a while, holding an exquisitely crafted silver collar in his hand. Suo, said with a smile: "Brother Qi thinks that Jixiang is about to turn one year old, so he specially asked someone to bring something for Jixiang."

Liu Shangshu said with a smile: "Qi Shu is so careful sometimes. Jixiang is almost one year old? Then we should celebrate it."

Ye Feiyang put the silver collar on Ji Xiang, kissed him, and said seriously: "This is from your father."

Ji Xiang didn't know if he still remembered Qi Shu, holding the longevity lock with his little hand, he liked it a lot, and said a few words: "Daddy, Daddy."

Ye Feiyang curled his lips, but his eyes were full of auspiciousness, he was thinking of the person in the distance, Qi Shu had been away for three months, but it seemed as long as three years.

When Qi Shu picked up Jixiang at the beginning, he found a handkerchief on his body, with the Chinese characters of birthday embroidered on it, it should be auspicious, and counting, Jixiang will be one year old in a few days.What Qi Shu meant was that he wanted Ye Feiyang to invite the villagers to have fun together. Ye Feiyang also had this plan himself. When the child was one year old, he would definitely have a banquet.

After dinner, the children in the village came to report as usual. Ye Feiyang greeted the group of young gentlemen one by one, took the things they brought to the backyard, and prepared some snacks and tea for them. Then he gave Fang Zhengjie some instructions, and went out to find Li Zheng.

It stands to reason that when the child is one year old, he needs to invite some relatives and friends, but Ye Feiyang has no relatives here, and only these simple village names, so it is better to discuss with Lizheng for a banquet.When Ye Feiyang left, Li was weaving bamboo baskets at home, saw him coming, knocked on his pipe, and greeted him with a smile: "Feiyang is here, sit down quickly, lady, go and pour Feiyang a bowl of water. "

"No, no, I just came over after breakfast and I'm not thirsty."

"Forget it then. Feiyang, what's the matter?"

Ye Feiyang didn't go around in circles: "Well, Jixiang is about to turn one year old. Brother Qi wrote a letter saying that he wants to make a birthday wine for him. I want to discuss it with you. I wonder if there is such a custom in the village."

Li Zheng said: "Auspicious is almost one year old! Then there must be a banquet!"

Ye Feiyang smiled: "I don't know much about these things. I don't know that there is full moon wine, so I'm here to trouble you."

"What's the trouble! For such a cute little boy, Jixiang, let's hold a one-year-old wine and catch another week, so that he can grow better in the future!"

Ye Feiyang nodded: "Then what should I do! What should I prepare for Zhou Zhou? What should I prepare for the banquet?"

"There are no specific rules for Zhou Zhou. It depends on you. We are in the countryside here, and we only mean a few things. You are from a big place, so there are naturally more rules. You can display whatever you want." After Li Zheng finished speaking, he turned his head and shouted into the room: "Mother, come out."

There was a sound in the room, and not long after, Lizheng's wife came out wearing an apron, and smiled gently at Ye Feiyang: "Brother Ye is here."

"Hello auntie."

Li Zheng said: "Auspicious is about to turn one year old, you can tell him what you need to prepare, and I will invite you for the banquet later, so you can tell him what you need to prepare."

The aunt didn't seem surprised when she heard this, and said with a smile: "There is nothing else, the main thing is to make a new suit for Jixiang, especially a pair of one-year-old shoes. This must not be sloppy."

Ye Feiyang frowned slightly, he really doesn't know how to wear one-year-old shoes.

Li Zhengdao: "Who in the village can do it well? Let her help Jixiang do something. How can a man like Feiyang do this?"

"Well, then let Liu Shu and his daughter-in-law do it. Her hands are the most skillful in the village. I'll talk to her later. As for the clothes, if Brother Ye doesn't mind, I can make a set for Ji Xiang." .”

Ye Feiyang quickly said: "Don't dislike it, don't dislike it! Auntie, your craftsmanship is very good."

The aunt thought for a while, and then said: "I see that Jixiang already has a silver bracelet, but it's best to add a longevity lock."

"I have this, Brother Qi asked someone to bring a handful to Jixiang."

Li Zheng and his wife heard the words and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, Qi Shu has such a temper, and he is still so careful."

Ye Feiyang rubbed his hands together, smiling shyly.

Seeing that Ye Feiyang was a little shy, the aunt hurriedly changed the topic: "The main thing is the auspicious outfit, and then the things you need to catch the week. As for the banquet, you are not suitable for a man to do these. Auntie will pack it for you. , you can prepare some silver taels then."

Ye Feiyang nodded again and again: "Thank you so much, Auntie!"

Ye Feiyang is sitting at Lizheng's house here, but something not big or small happened in the yard at the other end.The children who came to play that day were still rushing to hug Jixiang, and then some children saw the silver collar on Jixiang's neck.This is a rare item in the village, even some people have it in their homes, but it is not as round, thick, bright, and beautiful as the auspicious one!The key is that Jixiang can be carried around, but they can only wear it for a while during the Chinese New Year.

The children are innocent, and they can’t move their eyes when they like things. At that moment, several children reached out to touch the silver collar on Jixiang’s neck enviously. Suo smiled at them, innocently sharing his joy.

Although most children are envious of the auspicious silver collar, after touching it for a while, they quickly find new fun, but there are one or two exceptions, such as Zhuzhu, who is a naughty child. Bully other children from time to time, and grab others’ food after eating. I didn’t do anything else this morning. I just kept staring at the auspicious silver collar. I don’t know if it’s because I like it too much or something else. The reason was that after waiting for a long time, Fang Zhengjie finally took advantage of Fang Zhengjie's turning around to fetch food for Ji Xiang, and suddenly stretched out his hand and yanked the silver lock forcefully. He picked up Jixiang and coaxed him in a hurry. He thought that Jixiang simply fell down, but unexpectedly, no matter how he coaxed him, Jixiang cried very sadly, crying: "It hurts! It hurts!"

Liu Shangshu and the old doctor next door heard the crying and hurried over. Fang Zhengjie was about to cry too. Liu Shangshu and the old doctor saw the thick red mark on Jixiang's neck at a glance, which appeared on the white and tender skin. Shocking, the two looked at each other, and quickly and carefully took off the collar on Jixiang's neck. The old doctor felt under the red mark carefully, and he was relieved to make sure that no bones were hurt.

"What's wrong with Jixiang?" Ye Feiyang heard Jixiang crying heart-piercingly from afar, and he knew it was not a fake cry, but really uncomfortable, and he felt a little bit in his heart, and ran towards the room, out of breath Not breathing well, he saw the old doctor touching auspiciousness. He walked in and took a look, and his heart suddenly became a ball.

Hearing Ye Feiyang's voice, Ji Xiang cried even harder. His neck hurt badly. After being hugged by Ye Feiyang, he hugged his neck and cried loudly: "It hurts! It hurts!"

Ye Feiyang hugged Jixiang, looked at the red circle around his neck, and was about to die of annoyance, why did he leave Jixiang alone at home like this, Fang Zhengjie himself was still a child, how could he take good care of Jixiang !

The old doctor took a porcelain bottle and said, "Sit down, I'll give Jixiang some medicine."

Ye Feiyang hurried into the room and sat on the stool so that the old doctor could apply the medicine.Fang Zhengjie felt that he had caused a catastrophe and failed to take good care of Jixiang, so he was crying too much. Liu Shangshu was coaxing him, and asked about what happened just now.

"Is Jixiang okay? Did you hurt your bones?"

The old doctor dug out a piece of plaster and gently applied it on Ji Xiang's wound: "There is no muscle or bone injury, just rubbing the skin, just rub some medicine."

Only then did Ye Feiyang take a breath, and kissed Jixiang: "It's my fault, I shouldn't go out, Jixiang is a good boy, the pain will go away after taking the medicine."

With tears on Jixiang's face, he still cried: "It hurts! Dad, it hurts! My legs hurt!"

Ye Feiyang was startled, the old doctor turned around and went to the room to get a pair of scissors, and quickly cut open Jixiang's trousers, only to see that there was a small palm-sized piece on Jixiang's right leg just below the knee, which was not broken, but was covered with There are some bloodshot eyes, and it looks a little swollen. It is likely that the diaphragm hit a stone when he fell.
