Raising Babies in the 70s - Chapter 129

    The Chen family in Dajiao Village.

    “Nian Nian, please read the newspaper again.” Qin Mian smiled and urged her husband to read the newspaper, but Chen Mian couldn’t beat her, so she had to read the newspaper aside.

    That’s a story about a pearl farm.

    Chen Mian said with disgust: “You haven’t been in the newspaper yourself, what are you doing? When can you let me see your photos in the newspaper?”

     “When the reporters come, I’m scared to death.”

    My sister’s pearl cultivation factory has gained profits. Qin Mian has recently received a large dividend, and their family is not happy.

    Now a couple of children have been admitted to college, and my sister’s factory has also made money. The life of their family has become more and more prosperous.

    “They say times have changed.”

    Qin Mian has changed a lot now, she felt that she should keep up with the trend of the times, so she also went to perm her hair, put on a really good dress, and now she has a dress around her neck String pearl necklace.

    Qin Mian always felt very uncomfortable when she put on the necklace, and from time to time she had to pull it a few times, making a red mark on her neck.

    “I knew it was a necklace, but if I didn’t know it, I thought it was a pig collar.”

    Qin Mian glared at her husband: “Look at what you said? Are you still a cultural person? It’s too vulgar to speak.”

    “My chain doesn’t look good?”

     “It’s good-looking, why is it not good-looking.” Chen Mian looked at her tenderly.

    “I’ll get you a bunch next time.”

    Aunt Fu came to her house and brought a lot of things to his house. Seeing the pearl necklace on Qin Mian’s neck, she immediately praised: “Oh, this woman is really wearing pearls. Beautiful!”

    “Meng Lan said that this pearl is beautiful and beautiful, so wear it more.”

    “Maybe we can all wear it in the future!”

    Aunt Fu and Qin Mian looked at each other and smiled.

    “This is the first batch of pearls, there will be more next year.”

    “I heard that there are many factories around?”

    “Yes, there are many more pearls.”

    Chen Juanjuan and Chen Jinghua also saw the news of South Island Pearls in the capital. The sister and brother were very happy. Their aunt and mother raised the pearls and sold them for a lot of money! !

    “Juanjuan, I sent you a lot of things from your mother.”

    Chen Juanjuan received her own things, her mother and aunt brought her a pair of pearl earrings, as well as many beautiful shell-carved headgear hairpins, Chen Juanjuan put on the pair of earrings and put the hairpins away On the head, as soon as he went out, he attracted the attention of many people.

      Notice.

    “Juanjuan, what are you wearing on your head? What a beautiful hairpin, where did you buy it.”

    “Are the earrings on your ears pearls?”

    “It was sent from my hometown.”

    “South Island Pearl.”

    “It’s beautiful, is there anything else? Can you send me, no, a pair of these earrings?”

    Chen Juanjuan showed an embarrassed look: “Not many, just such a pair, there are still a few hair accessories with this pattern on the head.”

    “We have such a good relationship, you can give me one!”

    “There are only a few, and I gave it to you, what should I do if someone asks me again?”

    “You said you sold it to me.”

    “Is this made of pearl shells? So beautiful!”

    …

    At the end of 1980, Lu Sanjie gave birth to a boy in the hospital, weighing five pounds and twenty taels.

    Lu Zongyi and his wife, Lu Yan and his wife brought a few cubs to the hospital to see them. The Tiandourong sisters were overjoyed, “We are sisters!”

    Lu Weizhou: “One more brother.”

    Lu Weize: “Brother, you only have one younger brother, you have to be the best for me!”

    “Supervise your homework.”

    Lu Weize: “…I don’t want to be in the same class as you.”

    What kind of homework does he have?

    Having a brother is so troublesome, he is not allowed to copy homework.

    “You don’t want to be in the same class as your brother, you still have to be at the same table with your brother? Bad brother.”

    With another grandson, Comrade Lu was really overwhelmed with emotion, thinking that if I take family portraits in the future, I will be able to gather enough people for 20 people.

    Jiang Ping smiled: “Isn’t there twenty in the last photo?”

    “The child in the womb counts as one.”

    Comrade Lu: “…”

    Speaking of this matter, Qin Rou also remembered, “Zhouzhou and Dumpling, before you were born, you followed your mother to the newspaper.”

    “Newspaper?”

    “Yes, in my mother’s belly, my mother still keeps that newspaper, it’s a newspaper from 1971…” Qin Rou remembered that she had saved a lot of Photos and various paper materials, I suddenly felt that the camera she bought that year was really worth it.

    “Almost ten years.”

    As time goes by, the memories of the past not only remain in people’s minds, but also freeze in those photos.

    Tear off the old calendar on the wall and replace it with a new calendar from 1981. A set of zodiac commemorative stamps was issued in January of this year. Qin Rou went to buy several sets and kept them. Two sons bought Reader’s Digest magazine.

    A reader magazine is only three bucks these days, but it’s really cheap.

    “Look at the little dumplings, and save your composition score.”

    There are not only many newspapers and magazines, but also many martial arts novels on the market. In the past, these martial arts novels were passed down from Hong Kong Island. I heard that they will soon be printed and published in China. A martial arts novel.

    Qin Rou brought two sets of martial arts novels to pass the time.

    In addition to martial arts novels, there are also romance novels. After romance novels became popular, there were more and more girls with black long straight shawl hair. With straight hair, girls all yearn to be the pure heroine.

    Qin Rou also read a few romance novels of this era. The content is very ancient. The protagonist is a pure and unpretentious strong and kind heroine. Her love with the male protagonist can break through all obstacles.

    Rather than reading romance novels, Qin Rou prefers to read martial arts novels to pass the time.

    She and Lu Yan read the martial arts novels at home from time to time. Lu Weizhou likes to read science fiction books. Qin Rou took him to the library to borrow a lot. Look at the comics, hold the comics and watch them together with the two younger sisters.

    Sisters Doudou and Rongrong can recognize a lot of words now, and they can count them. They like to play with their two brothers.

    They prefer to fight with Dumpling Brother, because the eldest brother Zhouzhou will teach them to read and count, and there are a lot of things they don’t understand.

    I was stupefied, and I was confused with Dumpling brother. Little Dumpling hugged his little sister with bean paste stuffing, thinking that they were three difficult brothers and sisters.

    The eldest brother Zhouzhou smiled and watched the three of them play.

    Dumpling suggested: “Brother, let’s come to the player’s bar together.”

    Lu Weizhou replied: “Yes.”

    The four brothers and sisters together can play any game.

    Doudou said: “I want to be a grandfather.”

    Rong Rong said: “Then I want to be a grandma.”

    Little Dumpling said: “Then I want to be the aunt.”

    Lu Weizhou: “…then what do you want me to be?”

    As the eldest brother, in the face of such a family, he is speechless.

    Doudou said: “You be a father.”

    Lu Weize said: “You are my brother.”

    Lu Weizhou: “…” Is this why you want to be an aunt?

    Comrade Lu Weizhou is the appointed father.

    Doudou: “I’m going to call Lao Wang, son, hug me!”

    Xiaodoudouba ran to Lu Weizhou with her short legs and opened her hands to hug.

    Lu Weizhou: “…”

    Lu Weizhou could only helplessly hold his sister in his arms, Doudou was very happy, smiling like a little fox.

    Rong Rong ran to her dumpling brother, “Brother, you have a baby in your belly.”

    “Sit down.”

    Lu Weize: “…”

    Lu Weizhou: “…”

    The two brothers looked at each other, and suddenly they no longer wanted to play house with their sisters.

    Qin Rou, Lu Yan and his wife came back from running, and all they saw was the four cubs in the family playing together.

    The scene looks very warm.

    Qin Rou wiped the sweat from her face, and said to Lu Yan with emotion, “It’s really fun for my siblings to play together. Was it the same with your brother and sister when you were young?”

    “We’re not too different in age, so we can play together.”

    Doudou said happily: “Daughter-in-law, you are back!”

    Qin Rou: “…”

    Lu Yan: “…”

    Lu Weizhou coughed: “I’m the father now.”

    Lu Weize: “I’m aunt.”

    Rong Rong: “Mom is back, I want to be my mother’s good daughter!”

    “It’s so tiring to take care of my brother, I’ll have to do this for a while, and do that for a while.”

    Lu Weize: “…”

    Qin Rou: “…what are you playing? We Rongrong will still take care of her brother?”

    Lu Weizhou said: “Playing home, Doudou is grandpa, Rongrong is grandma, Dumpling is aunt, I am father.”

    Qin Rou: “…” My son and daughter really know how to play.

    Lu Yan: “…Now that Mom and Dad are back, Zhouzhou, change your identity.”

    Lu Weizhou: “I want to be a dumpling.”

    Lu Weize: “Then I’ll be a boat, go and recite my homework for me!! Go and finish the composition that Dumpling is going to write today!”

    Doudou ran to Qin Rou’s side: “I also want to be my mother’s good daughter.”

    “Okay, Mama’s two good daughters.”

    Lu Yan interjected: “Don’t you want dad?”

    “Yes!”

    Several sons and daughters got together and skipped the days in the family building of the military school. In May of 1981, the first commercial housing community in Guangcheng was about to open for sale.

    Lu Yan and Qin Rou took their two children to buy a house.

    At this time, there are quite a lot of residents in Guangcheng who come to see the house. The house price is 751 square meters. A small house of 60 square meters.

    The house at this time did not have the so-called shared area, and the area of ​​the house was the real area.

    So a house of fifty or sixty square meters is not bad.

    “Do you want to buy a house?” There are many people who come to see the house, but there are also many who hesitate to buy it. Many people in Guangcheng have made a lot of money in the past few years, but this set is often Wan’s house is really painful to buy.

    Lu Yan and Qin Rou were sure they wanted to buy a house, so they took their children to choose a house. Currently it is an eight-storey house. They chose a house and discussed which floor to choose. .

    “I want to live taller!” Now most houses are short, and living in tall buildings is the yearning of many people.

    “Too high is not appropriate.”

    “The fifth floor then.”

    They bought the first commercial house, the fifth floor, 110 square meters, with a down payment of 40,000, and the rest of the mortgage.
