"These are the bamboo shoots my mother-in-law brought back from the countryside. I know that your family loves to eat them, so I brought a lot back this time." Lin Suhong carried the bamboo shoots to Su Shu and placed them under the eaves, and then called through the window to the person in the kitchen. Zheng Youdi shouted, then moved a chair and sat next to Su Shu, "Hurry up and give me a hug."

Lin Suhong was envious of the soft and fragrant baby as soon as it came into her arms, "Wu Shengli and I originally planned to have another daughter. At first, we thought we would wait until our son is older, so that we can have more money, and we don't have to do it all at once. Taking care of two little ones, I didn’t expect that I would not be able to give birth now.”

Lin Suhong regrets that neither she nor Wu Shengli has a rural registered permanent residence, so they can only have one child.

So now she and Wu Shengli feel envious and regretful when they see the neighbors with many children on Xiaohe Street. They clearly took advantage of a good opportunity, but failed to seize it.

Speaking of this, Lin Suhong looked at Huang Xiaoqin who just walked out.

Originally, Huang Xiaoqin and Wu Mancang agreed with the two-child policy, but because Wu Mancang now came to the farm and joined the unit as a formal worker, Wu Mancang and Huang Xiaoqin could only have a daughter named Nannan.

Even though Wu Xiaoqin and Nannan’s household registrations are still in Wujiacun.

Lin Suhong asked, "You should wait until you have another child before coming to the farm."

With a rural household registration, the first child is a daughter who is allowed to have another child four years later.

"The child's father said that one daughter is enough. Raise her well. One good child will be better than ten unfilial sons." Huang Xiaoqin herself grew up deeply poisoned by patriarchal preference.

The Wu family has a good family tradition, Wu Mancang doesn't care anymore, and Huang Xiaoqin naturally won't insist on giving birth to a son and then wronging his daughter.

She hoped to give her daughter the love and financial enrichment she had never received when she was a child, hoping that her daughter would be rich both materially and spiritually.

"The child's father said that with so many brothers and sisters, it doesn't matter whether we have children or not." Huang Xiaoqin pointed to the row of six large and small radishes in front of her.

"That's true. Your family has a good relationship. My cousin is as close as my brother." Lin Suhong was even more envious.

The relationship between Wu Shengli and his cousins ​​from his hometown can only be said to be average. He can help with small things, but he definitely can't be counted on for big things.

That is to say, when the topic came up, Lin Suhong said a few words of envy, and then quickly changed the topic to the New Year.

"Are you going back to Wujiacun for the New Year this year?" Lin Suhong asked, "We haven't been back to our hometown for the New Year in many years. My mother-in-law said that we will all go back to our hometown on New Year's Eve to celebrate the New Year. We even bought the tickets and will go back on the afternoon of New Year's Eve."

"We are not going back this year. Manman is still so young and spends so much time on the road. The child has suffered a lot." Huang Xiaoqin shook her head, "The child's grandfather and great-great-grandfather came to the farm to celebrate the New Year. Fengsheng and Mancang have already driven to the train station to pick them up. "

"It was really a reunion year. If you want to say New Year, it would be more interesting to be on the farm. The farm is so lively during the New Year. I heard that the farm will hold a Lantern Festival garden party this year and there will be fireworks on the farm that day." Lin Suhong covered her mouth and smiled.

"My mother-in-law said at first that it was rare for Wu Shengli and I to take such a long vacation, and that we would wait until the National Day before returning to the farm this year. Later, when she heard that the farm was hosting a Lantern Festival party, she immediately told her family that she would not return to the farm until the National Day. It’s time to go back to the farm.”

As soon as the Lantern Festival Garden Party was mentioned, the six children had something to talk about together. "Yiyi is going to perform on stage that day!" Liang Zhichao sounded as if he was showing off himself. He was very proud. "She is going to perform an erhu solo. The new dress she is going to wear that day is so beautiful. She looks like a fairy!"

"Yeah! Really? Yiyi is so amazing!" Lin Suhong was surprised, "There was a performance that day? Did Yiyi perform on stage? My mother-in-law was so excited when she found out."

"Yiyi not only went to perform, she also wanted to be a small host. She was selected from elementary school, junior high school, and high school to train at the TV station, and finally she stayed with our family." Liang Zhiqiang looked at Erlang's legs and swayed, "The TV station's People say that Yi Yi is good at Typhoon, has a lot of energy, and doesn’t have stage fright, and they also say that Yi Yi learns the best.”

Look at what makes Liang Zhiqiang so proud, even our family has spoken out one by one.

"Then you two will perform on stage?" Lin Suhong asked.

"Come on, our school has put on several programs, including a chorus and a poetry recitation. I performed poetry recitation, and my brother is in the choir." Liang Zhiqiang nodded, "The Children's Palace also put on several programs. If it weren't for us We don’t have enough time, so we can put on several shows.”

Take Yiyi as an example. If Yiyi didn't have to perform both erhu solo and host, the teacher would have let Yiyi stand in the middle of the poetry recitation program.

"That day, the performance was from 09pm to 30:[-]. In addition to the selected programs at the farm school and the Children's Palace, there were also performances by the city's cultural troupe. In addition to singing and dancing, there were sketches, cross talk and opera clips. Programs that men, women, and children loved. Everything has been taken into consideration, and the performance will be interspersed with some interactions with the audience, playing lantern riddles, and giving souvenirs to those who guess correctly.”

Su Shu said, "If you don't like watching shows, you can go to the garden activities. Each unit has a garden area, and each unit makes its own plans. There are also lantern parades. It will definitely be lively that day."

Lin Suhong's eyes widened, "So this is how the amusement park area is supposed to be? Our unit also participated, but we are not responsible for it, but we have heard that our unit's activity area that day is right in front of our department store."

Now hearing Su Shu explain in detail, Lin Suhong wished that tomorrow was the Lantern Festival.

After chatting for a while, Lin Suhong went back happily, obviously wanting to share the good news with her family.

Half an hour later, Wu Fengshou and the others received Grandpa Wu and Wu Houchun.

When they walked in, the two men were still chatting about how lively the farm was.

"When we came back, Feng Sheng specially drove us to the market for a tour. Good guy, they sell everything." Wu Houchun was eye-opening.

"The streets here look like they did when I was young." Grandpa Wu was also happy because the younger generation of his family had taken root in a good place like the farm, and Wu Fengshou and Wu Mancang both had jobs. Now, he is a formal worker, and even his household registration is in the farm.

"By the way, when will the in-laws arrive?" Wu Houchun heard that Su Shu's mother would also come to the farm to celebrate the New Year this year, and immediately asked Su Shu, "Zhenguo is busy with work, let Fengsheng and Mancang pick it up."

"My mother is coming with Xuejun and the others. They will arrive probably the day after tomorrow morning. Uncle Cao will also come." Su Shu's eyes were full of smiles. "This year, not only is the farm busy, but our home is also busy."

"We're all here to see Xiao Manman~" Su Shu patted her sleeping daughter in her arms. The only one who couldn't come back for the New Year was Su Tianrong. He was abroad and had too many things to spare.
