Second Marriage in the 1970s - Chapter 54

On May 28, 1977, Jiahui gave birth to a boy safely in the town health center, with the nickname released.

The whole family was very happy about the arrival of the release. When Jiahui came out of the delivery room, Zhao Donglin held Jiahui’s hand. His eyes were red because of staying up late and worrying. By the way, I only said six words. It’s a hard work, thank you.

Zhang Qiao’er smiled from ear to ear as soon as he saw the little grandson. One was to add another son to the eldest son, and the other was that Jiahui had a smooth birth, which blocked many people’s mouths, and those rumors could also be closed.

“Jiahui, you are so good, you are two taels, and your baby is strong.”

Jiahui nodded weakly. In the later stages of pregnancy, she had tried her best to control her diet, but the family always asked her to make more supplements and eat less. In the end, she was not able to control it, and she was a few kilograms fatter than expected.

Although she didn’t mention it to anyone before giving birth, she was actually very worried. For a while before the journey, she had seen a lot of news about mothers facing danger because of having children. In this age of underdeveloped medicine and basic medical equipment, she is really worried. I was worried that I would be in danger, but fortunately everything was safe in the end.

“Come on, get hungry, hurry up and eat something to pad and keep warm on the stove, just waiting for you to come out.”

A small pot of hot chicken soup, in order to allow Jiahui to eat hot food at any time, Zhang Qiaoer brought all the briquettes stoves at home to the hospital. The chicken soup was made by Meixiang and delivered at home. At that time, Jiahui was still in the delivery room. Zhang Qiaoer gave birth to the fire and kept warm.

Just after giving birth, Jiahui was very tired. What she would most like to do is to have a good night’s sleep. She didn’t have much appetite, but Jiahui was too embarrassed to brush her mind with her mother-in-law treating herself so hard.

Zhao Donglin helped Jiahui to sit up, set up a small table for her, and filled her with half a bowl of chicken soup and chicken.

“Thank you mom.”

Zhang Qiao’er smiled, “Silly boy, what’s so thankful for this, eat quickly, and sleep after eating.”

Jia Hui bowed her head and drank the soup. Zhao Donglin smiled and stood beside her. The daughter-in-law was sitting on the hospital bed. In the cot next to him was the youngest son. The weather in May was neither cold nor hot. , This scene is too beautiful, making him feel extremely happy.

“Look at the small mouth that put it down, it’s pink, it looks like you.”

On the second day after childbirth, Chen Guixiang took care of Jiahui in the hospital. From the time Jiahui was admitted to the hospital to give birth, she took brown sugar eggs, millet porridge, and chicken soup together with Zhang Qiaoer in a different way.

Jiahui is still a little weak today, but she has already started to get out of bed and walk around, but her whole body is covered tightly and airtight, for fear that she won’t be able to sit in confinement for a lifetime.

Jiahui was extremely thankful that Fangfang was born in May, and if the summer had allowed her to do this, she might have the heart to die.

In an era without fans and air conditioning, confinement in the scorching summer would be so tormenting.

Jiahui fed Fang Fang and then Fang Fang lay beside her. This is a little baby who praises her beauty whenever she sees her. She has a small white face, soft and dense hair, closed eyes and long eyelashes. She was quiet like a little angel landing in the world. As long as she looked at her, Jiahui’s heart became soft and moved, and she just wanted to hold him in her arms and love her.

It is said that being a mother is just right. You only know the meaning of life when you are a mother, that is, you are willing to pay a lifetime of hard work for a child as soon as he is born.

Jiahui gently held the small hand that was let go, and said silently in her heart, “Mom will work hard and will definitely give you a bright future.”

So that you can become a member of PingDaiPingMo in the future.

“I can’t drink anymore, Mom, you guys too.”

Jiahui can eat so much of the rib soup in a big soup pot.

“Eat more. You can feed your child only if you are full. He has to eat your milk.”

However, Jiahui was worried that she was not getting enough milk and water, so she reluctantly drank two more mouthfuls. After drinking it into her stomach, she couldn’t hold it for a little bit before she stopped.

“You give birth and let go, what is the attitude of the two babies in the family?”

It’s hard for stepmothers to do. In the past two years, Jiahui’s attitude towards Heidan Yingbao is in everyone’s eyes. It’s already a rare dedication. It’s nothing more than a real mother, but children are different from adults. They talk about feelings. In principle, you have to accept him if you treat him well, and I am most afraid that a warm heart will run into cold water.

Yingbao is okay. Jiahui didn’t remember anything when she married. She has always been Jiahui’s mother. The black egg is different. She is seven years old this year. I’m really worried.

“Very good. Yesterday Meixiang took them to see me, but I like to let it go. I hope we will be discharged and go home soon.”

Ying Bao is two years old. Although she doesn’t speak much, she understands everything. After seeing the release, she said in a milky voice, “Mom, brother, go home.”

Everyone thinks of Coke, teasing her to ask, “Does Yingbaoxi like my brother?”

She nodded seriously and said she liked it.

As for the black eggs, I can see that he likes to release them, but it’s not as obvious as Yingbao’s performance.

Heidan has already entered elementary school in the next year. Because Jiahui had tutored at home, his academic performance was among the best. The teacher said that with his current level of knowledge, he could reach the third grade. After consideration, Jiahui and Zhao Donglin will not skip the grade for the time being. Let’s lay a solid foundation first.

Although he was still as silent as when he was a child, he was gentle and polite to Jiahui, who often helped her with housework during her pregnancy.

Although many people say that the black egg remembers his mother, he is unfamiliar, and you don’t think he will call you mom or something, but Jiahui never cares about these, just a title, it is not important to her. .

She is good to black eggs because she married Zhao Donglin, and because she is good to him for Zhao Donglin’s sake. This kind of goodness does not ask for anything in return, but only asks for a clear conscience, and it is out of love for the children.

This difference is more clear after giving birth. One is the responsible care, and the other is the maternal love that is in the palm of the hand. In the future, she will strive to be impartial, but deep down in her heart, she will be more emotional. It must be the release of her pregnancy in October, like a black egg respecting her and being polite to her, but will never hug her, and will never act like a baby in her arms.

Time flies quickly, especially when there is a little baby at home, busy taking care of him every day, watching him change day by day, crossing midsummer and coming to late autumn.

At the end of October, major domestic newspapers, magazines, and radio stations announced the resumption of the college entrance examination to the people across the country, and revealed that the college entrance examination will be conducted nationwide in one month, with unified examinations and selection of the best candidates.

The news pointed out that all workers and peasants, educated young people who go to the mountains and the countryside and return home, demobilized soldiers, cadres, and recent high school graduates can participate in this campaign to resume the college entrance examination.

This news exploded across the country, and all aspiring young people who were in line with the policy were ecstatic. Ten years later, the country finally ushered in the spring of respect for knowledge and talents, and the sky shaded by dark clouds finally cleared.

When Zhao Donglin received the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination, he felt a little in his heart. He remembered that Jiahui had already mentioned the hypothesis of “resuming the college entrance examination” a year ago. At the beginning, he thought that Jiahui’s hypothesis had some truth, but he did not expect to recover so quickly. The college entrance examination has become a reality.

He has always known that his wife is a very intelligent woman. She can keep accounts, plan to take orders, teach children enlightenment, write good handwriting, and tell many stories, but she didn’t know that she even guessed the direction of national policy. Precise.

Before Zhao Donglin went home to talk to Jiahui about it, Meixiang, who received the news from her classmates, rushed into the yard.

“Sister-in-law, have you heard that the country is going to resume the college entrance examination, and all those who meet the registration requirements can sign up. Many students in our class said they want to take the exam!”

At the moment, Mei Xiang admires her sister-in-law’s five-body dedication. A year ago, her sister-in-law asked herself to learn more and read more books, saying that opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared, and that more things will always come in handy after learning more.

Under the leadership of my sister-in-law, I revisited the knowledge of middle and high school. Now it seems that my sister-in-law is a prophet!

There is no newspaper at home, and Jiahui really doesn’t know the news, but she is not surprised. She has known that the resumption of the college entrance examination is this year, but she can’t determine the specific time.

“Then do you want to sign up?”

Meixiang sat down and took the release from Jiahui’s arms. After hearing Jiahui’s question, her eyes were both longing and perplexing.

“I thought about it too, but I was a little uncertain and contradictory. On the one hand, I didn’t want to miss the opportunity. On the other hand, I was a little worried.

After speaking, Mei Xiang also asked Jiahui.

“Then sister-in-law, will you participate? You have been reading for the past two years, do you still want to go to university?”

In terms of learning, Meixiang believes that her sister-in-law can do it, but the sister-in-law will let her go to school when she is so young. If the sister-in-law takes the college entrance examination and passes the college entrance examination, the eldest brother and mom will support the sister-in-law to go to school?

“Of course I will. I have been waiting for this day. Let me tell you that in the future, our country will become stronger and more progressive. Even if we are in the countryside, we have to do things that can contribute to rural construction. Educated and knowledgeable young people, rather than knowing nothing, will just waste the years.”

“Will Big Brother agree?”

Jiahui blinked at her, “Guess?”

Mika said with a smile, “I can’t guess that.”

The eldest brother loves his sister-in-law very much. Usually the sister-in-law agrees with what the eldest brother says, but this is a big deal after all, let alone Fang Fang is so small, she really can’t guess what the eldest brother thinks.

Put it in Meixiang’s arms, watch Jiahui speak for a while, watch Meixiang speak again for a while, seeing that no one is paying attention to him, she stretched out her little hand and touched Meixiang’s face, babbling in her mouth, and she grabbed it. He put his hand on his mouth and kissed him.

“Let’s let it go and want to talk, then you have to grow up quickly.”

I laughed, the clear reflection of Meixiang’s face in the big muscadine-like eyes made people love it, and felt that no pain was enough.

In the evening, Jiahui discussed with Zhao Donglin about the college entrance examination, and she made it clear that she wanted to participate.

Zhao Donglin went to the town for a meeting today. Knowing that the country attaches great importance to this examination, he did not directly object to it, but mentioned his younger son.

“Fangfang is still so young, are you really willing to leave him? If you are admitted, you will go to school. Your child will not see you for a long time, let alone you go away alone. I don’t worry about it.”

Not to mention the children, he can’t even think about his wife leaving home, which will last for a few months.

Jiahui squeezed Zhao Donglin’s hand in the dark, “Who said I want to go alone, I want to go with you, I read the newspaper, all the workers and peasants, the young educated people who go to the mountains and the countryside, and the demobilized soldiers. , Cadres and recent high school graduates can all participate in this activity to resume the college entrance examination. You are both a demobilized soldier and a cadre in the village.”

“Our country now lacks a large number of talents, and we are considered aspiring young people. We have to learn more knowledge to serve the motherland. When we have learned something, will we be able to make greater contributions to the country? Returning to the village with new horizons and new knowledge will definitely make our village better and more prosperous.”

I have to say that Jiahui’s words are indeed very inspiring. At least in this dark night, Zhao Donglin’s heart moved for a moment.

He went to the army when he was a teenager, in order to find a better way out for his family. If he put himself in the present, he would definitely be willing to continue learning.

Heart moved, Zhao Donglin still considered the reality. There are three children in the family. Even if the black egg is big, they can take care of themselves. But Yingbao and Fangfang are still young, so how can parents bring them here.

“I’ve thought about this too. Let’s apply to the university in our province, bring our parents and children there, and rent a house outside. Not only us, I also encourage Meixiang to take the exam too. You said Meixiang is such a good girl, young, Good-looking, good-hearted and smart, it would be wasteful for such a good girl to find someone to marry and stay in the countryside for a lifetime? If she is admitted to university, she can choose a young talent, so her life will be different again.”

Jiahui’s description of the prospects is very good and feasible, but Zhao Donglin did not lose his mind under this description.

In the past ten years, too many people’s youth has been wasted. This time when the college entrance examination is restored, many people will definitely choose to participate. The competition will undoubtedly be very understanding, and the exam time is one month later, even if he prepares for the exam in such an urgent time I’m not sure if I have studied well.

He is deeply entangled in his heart. The times are developing, and college entrance examinations meet the needs of the times. Just as Jiahui said, the country is in urgent need of talents, and everything will be very different if he goes to college for higher education and then comes out.

But if he can’t go, how can he rest assured that his wife will leave home alone? This kind of worry is not based on distrust of the daughter-in-law, but purely out of dissatisfaction with her.

He put his arms around Jiahui, his arms tightened unconsciously.

Although Jiahui didn’t know what he was thinking about in his heart, she could guess a little bit, and gave him a killer tip at the right time.

“We don’t think about ourselves but we have to think about our children. If we have a better life, our children’s starting point will be higher with us, and their horizons will broaden. Even if it’s for the children’s future, we must Give it a try.”

Zhao Donglin suffered from insomnia that night.
