The Eldest Sister is Like a Stepmother [60’s]

“You’re drying things? Are you taking out so many things?” Bei Shi came with two children. Compared with Puppies’ liveliness, Li Wanda leaned on his mother and cautiously looked into the yard.

Lin Yiyi felt a little sad when she saw Li Wangda like this. Li Wangda, who used to be as outgoing as her younger brother, is now cringing, afraid that others will scold him, and all this is just because of an accident.

Li Wanda saw Lin Wujun, and a flash of joy flashed in his eyes.

Naturally, Lin Wujun also saw him: “Wanda, are you here? Wanda, we are going back to our hometown the day after tomorrow, just across from the sea.”

Li Wanda walked quickly to Lin Wujun’s side: “Why are you going back to your hometown?”

Lin Wujun: “Go home for the Chinese New Year, and my sister-in-law is about to give birth, my sister said she would go back and have a look. Also, my fourth brother will be 17 years old after the new year, and my sister said that he will also talk about his daughter-in-law, so I There will be a fourth sister-in-law soon. Hey…I don’t know what my fourth sister-in-law will be like, I hope it will be as good as the eldest sister-in-law. “

Li Wanda listened to him and felt a little envious. He was the eldest son, unlike the Fifth Army who had so many brothers and sisters. Some children are like this, when they don’t have a brother, they want a brother, and when they have a brother, they want younger brothers and sisters.

Lin Wujun looked at his sad look and said mysteriously, “Are you going to my house for the New Year? We can also go to the pond to catch fish.”

Li Wanda’s eyes lit up: “Is it possible?” Then he shrugged again, he also knew it was impossible.

Lin Wujun: “Yes, you can sleep in my room, I have my own room.” Whether it’s his sister’s house or his three brothers’ houses, he has his own room. Lin Wujun looked at Pei again, “Auntie, can Wanda go to my house for Chinese New Year?”

Bayesian: “This…”

Lin Yiyi didn’t think that Lin Wujun would have this idea, but she asked Li Wangda softly: “Wanda want to go? We are very fun there, and there are many friends to play with.”

Li Wanda nodded. In fact, he didn’t want to be here. It made him feel very uncomfortable in the army. It seemed that many people would look at him strangely, and would scold him for knocking over Teacher Lin Le’s child. He told his mother that he did not want to be in the army, but the mother did not agree.

When Bei Shi saw her son say this, she felt relieved: “Will it be too troublesome?”

When Li Wanda heard his mother say that, he felt a little disappointed, and the expression on his face became more obvious.

Both Lin Yiyi and Bei Shi naturally noticed his emotions, Lin Yiyi said: “No, children are so lively, and Wanda is so good, I like it too late, how can it be troublesome.”

Bei’s: “Then…then he will ask you during the Chinese New Year.”

Lin Yiyi: “Hey, good.”

In 1965, because Little Eleven was still young, Lin Yiyi didn’t want to toss him by boat, and the family didn’t go home for the New Year. This year, Lin Yiyi was going home for the New Year, and brought a Li Wanda with him. However, Jin Yu didn’t have so many vacations, it was only three days when he was full, so Lin Yiyi took the child back first, and he would come back when the New Year’s Eve was 30.

Bei Shi prepared luggage for Li Wangda. When going to someone else’s house for the New Year, he couldn’t be as casual as in his own home. The clothes should be clean, so Bei Shi prepared his latest clothes for Li Wangda, and also prepared five dollars for Li Wangda to let him hide. . It’s amazing that a child can have five yuan. If the child usually goes to a relative’s house, Bei’s will give at most five cents and a cent, but this time is different, and his son “sick” needs to be taken care of.

On the day of departure, Bei Shi’s eyes were red. She knew that her son did not want to live in the army, but where would he go without the army? Husband and young son are here. So now it’s better to let my son live outside with Sister Lin for half a month, and let his son relax. Lin Meizi’s house is also close to the army. If there is an emergency, she can take care of her quickly. Moreover, she is relatively at ease with Lin Meizi.

Lin Yiyi led Little Eleven, carrying a basket, followed by Lin Wujun and Li Wangda, and got on the boat. Lin Yiyi likes the backpack of this era very much. It has the same effect as the backpack in the future, and it is very convenient to carry.

Little Eleven has been on the boat several times, and when he got on the boat, he ran around like an old guest, but Lin Yiyi held him tightly and did not dare to let go. Fortunately, when he waited for the boat to go, he was honest. When the boat opened, Lin Yiyi gave each of the three children a plum, and told them to speak every day with the plum in their mouths, and they were quiet.

By the time we got off the boat, it was already dawn. In winter, it was bright and late, and they got on the boat at five o’clock. At that time, it was still dark. If there were no lights on the boat, it would be pitch black.

The three children, Jialin Yiyi, all have hand warmers, but after two hours, the temperature of the hand warmers dropped a lot. Speaking of which, the glucose bottle can be warmed for two or three hours, which is very good.

Lin Yiyi rented an ox cart and went home, and it was half past eight.

The first time Li Wanda came to the country, he was in the army when he was born. Since he can remember, he has never left the army except when he saw a psychiatrist. When he left the army, his condition was not very good. I didn’t look at the surrounding environment. This time, because Lin Wujun was with him and chatted with him, his condition was much better.

Lin Yiyi: “Five Army, you take Wanda to play, and my sister goes to Xiao’s old house.”

Lin Wujun: “Hey.”

Lin Yiyi took Xiao Eleven to Xiao’s old house. She went to the third room first. Liang gave birth to two daughters in December. At that time, Lin Yiyi’s school was not on vacation, so she didn’t come.

At this moment, Liang’s family is still confinement. Because Liang gave birth to twins, this time it was a double confinement.

Auspicious: “Second Uncle… Mother, Second Uncle is here.” Lucky’s cry was very happy, especially when he saw Little Eleven, “Eleven, you are back.” His mother gave birth to two Sister, he doesn’t like it very much. It would be great if it was his younger brother. The younger brother can play with him. The younger sister is too squeamish and the little girl can cry very much. He doesn’t like it. Xiao Jixiang has something to be careful about, and only when he sees Little Eleven is coming, is he happy.

When Mrs Liang was in the room, she heard an auspicious voice calling from inside, “Second sister-in-law is here.”

Lin Yiyi entered the room and saw that Liang’s complexion was very good. It seemed that the month was going well, and Xiao Bin took good care of her. But also, when Liang was born auspiciously at the end of 1961, how bad were the conditions at that time? Now that Xiao Bin works in a pig farm, there will be no shortage of oil and water at home. He is reluctant to buy meat every month, and he is willing to buy bones. Bone soup is the most nutritious thing.

Looking at the Liang family, he was a thin person, but now he has gained a lot of weight. For Lin Yiyi, he looks a lot richer. However, let Lin Yiyi choose, she doesn’t want to be so rich, she’d better be thin.

Lin Yiyi took out two cans of milk powder and a bag of eggs: “Looks in good spirits.”

Liang said: “It’s just that the milk is not enough. During this period of time, I ate a lot of pig’s trotters for milk, so I gained weight.” But she was reluctant to let her eat milk powder every month like taking care of Jixiang, so, She would rather eat fat by herself and breastfeed her children, mainly because milk powder is too expensive. At the beginning, Jixiang was incapable of being in poor health, and weak children were always raised more delicately.

Lin Yiyi: “The child will be better after eating rice noodles in the past few months.”

Mrs. Liang: “The rice noodles are ready. When the milk powder is gone, I will drink rice noodles. There are two cans of milk powder at home, and if you bring your sister-in-law, there are four cans. I’m welcome.”

Lin Yiyi: “You’re welcome? Do you have a way to buy milk powder?”

Mrs Liang said mysteriously: “My sister-in-law sent it. I gave birth to twins. She sent two tins of milk powder, and my mother-in-law also sent two tins.” Get along, so willing to send milk powder. “Second sister-in-law, the next door also gave birth to a daughter, and the mother-in-law and sister-in-law also gave milk powder, one can each, and then the next door said that everyone looked down on her, and it took a long time.”

Lin Yiyi disagreed. The next door gave birth to one and gave a can of milk powder, and Liang gave birth to two and gave two cans of milk. Isn’t this normal? But for Qi Spinach, Lin Yiyi is not surprised that she has such an idea.

Auspicious: “Mother, Second Uncle, I went to play with Little Eleven.”

Lin Yiyi: “Go, pay attention to safety, don’t play in the water, don’t go with strangers.”

Lucky: “Got it.”

Little Eleven: “Got it.”

Jixiang took the little eleven: “Eleven, brother will take you to hide and seek, can you play hide and seek?”

Little Eleven shook his head: “No, what is hide and seek?”

Auspicious: “Hide and seek is to hide oneself, and then let no one find out.”

Little Eleven: “I must hide myself.”

The children like to go to the rice fields or hide-and-seek in empty houses. Jixiang took Xiao Shi to meet Lin Wujun and Li Wangda on the road, and then called a few friends and went to play hide-and-seek. When they were playing, they were rock-paper-scissors, and the lost kid squatted aside with his eyes closed, waiting for him to count from one to fifty. As soon as the time was up, he would start looking for someone regardless of whether the others were hiding or not. .

Lin Wujun took Li Wangda to hide together. He wanted to take care of his sick friend, and Jixiang took Xiao Shiyi to hide together.

Jixiang brought Little Eleven to a pile of straw: “You squat, brother will put the straw on you, if no one finds you, you don’t come out, understand?”

Little Eleven: “Understood.”

Jixiang: “Brother will hide beside you, don’t be afraid, if someone finds out, he must also find out, don’t come out, understand?”

Little Eleven: “Understood.”

Auspicious: “Then you squat well.”

Little Eleven squatted obediently, and when Jixiang covered him with the straw, he opened it from the straw again, looked around with big eyes, saw Jixiang squatting beside him, and also took the straw to cover himself, he find it fun. However, he did not have a long memory, and after a while, he began to walk on the straw.

Jixiang didn’t know that Little Eleven was walking around, so he hid himself. And Xiao Shi thought that he was wearing straws, so no one could see him, so he walked around happily, so he became the first to be discovered.

“Well, you’ve been found, you can take off the straw.” The boy came to look for someone when he counted to fifty. He was the first to catch Little Eleven, and then he started to remove the straw from Little Eleven’s body. Then he met Xiao Eleven’s innocent eyes, “Ah, don’t move when you hide, and you expose yourself when you walk.”

Little Eleven blinked innocently. When the other party continued to look for the next person, Little Eleven put the straw on himself again, and then found a place to squat obediently and stop walking. Hide and don’t move, Xiao Shigen said.

After about two minutes, all the children were found.

Jixiang: “And my brother, he has not been found.” However, the haystack that was beside him disappeared. What about his brother?

Boy: “Nonsense, he was the first to be found. He was walking on a haystack.”

Lucky: “What about others?”

Boy: “How do I know? After I found him, I went to find someone else.”

Auspicious: “Eleven… Eleven, where are you?”

Little Eleven, who was hiding in the haystack, didn’t make a sound. He remembered what his brother said, don’t come out even if he calls.

Jixiang: “On the eleventh…you can come out on the eleventh, where are you?” Jixiang was worried that he died, and his brother could not be found, what should I do?

Little Eleven’s ears moved, a little itchy. He scratched it with his hand, there was movement in the haystack here, Jixiang went to see it, and saw Xiao Shi was inside. Jixiang: “…Xiao Shi, why are you here?” Jixiang never thought that Xiao Shi was here, after all, he hid his younger brother next to him, who would have thought that his younger brother had changed to a haystack. But Jixiang didn’t know that Little Eleven didn’t return the haystack at all, but went over with the haystack.

Little Eleven: “I came over.”

Jixiang: “Don’t walk around next time, you will be worried if my brother can’t find you.”

Little Eleven: “Okay.”

Some people played for another hour and felt that they were no longer interested, so everyone disbanded. After disbanding, Little Eleven held the big haystack and wanted to take it away.

Jixiang: “Eleven, what are you holding this for?”

Little Eleven: “Take it home.”

Lin Wujun: “Why take it home?”

Little Eleven: “Play, hide.”

Lin Wujun and Jixiang: “…”

Little Eleven didn’t care whether Lin Wujun and Jixiang helped or not. Anyway, he wanted to take it home. Seeing that he was struggling to drag the big haystack, Lin Wujun and Jixiang had no choice but to help him take it together.

After bringing the haystack home, Little Eleven squatted in the yard and said, “Brother, cover it up.” He pointed to the top of his head.

Jixiang: “You still want to play hide and seek?”

Little Eleven: “Hide and let them find them one by one.”

Jixiang: “…Okay.” He felt very powerless.

Jixiang built the haystack, and went back to the Xiao family’s old house to find Lin Yiyi. Lin Yiyi was still in Liang’s house, listening to Liang’s gossip in the village. In this era of no entertainment, listening to gossip is also an entertainment activity. what.

Auspicious: “Second Auntie, Eleven told you to go home and play hide and seek. He has already hid it.”

Lin Yiyi: “…” She never played hide-and-seek when she was a child. There were countless parks and amusement parks in those days. Who still played hide-and-seek? But kids of this age love to play. Lin Yiyi got up and said goodbye to Liang’s, “I’ll go take a look.”

Mrs. Liang: “Hey, second sister-in-law came to our house for dinner tonight.”

Lin Yiyi: “I won’t come at night. Come back when you are out of confinement.” Liang was still in confinement. If she came over at night, Xiao Bin would have to entertain her, which was unnecessary.

Mrs. Liang: “That’s fine. When I’m out of confinement, I’ll cook a good table for the second sister-in-law.”

Lin Yiyi doesn’t believe Liang’s words, because Liang’s cooking skills are not very good, so she is not as good as her. This is also when Liang’s family was poor when she was a girl. She only did housework, and she had no part in the good thing of being a chef. So after she got married, she had no cooking skills at all, and only later did she have the opportunity to be the chef after separation. .

Lin Yiyi: “Then I can wait.”

Lin Yiyi came out of Liang’s house and went to the next door. Qi Spinach was confinement next door. Naturally, Lin Yiyi would not go in. She saw Xiao Wu drying things and called out, “Big brother.”

Xiao Wu: “Hey, are you going home for the New Year?”

Lin Yiyi said: “Yes, I’ll be back first, Brother Yu will come back in two days, he has a short vacation.” After speaking, he gave Xiao Wu a can of milk powder and a bag of eggs prepared in advance, “Brother, this is for Children, have a little heart.” Although the two rooms have been quarreling, it is only limited to them and Qi Spinach, not Xiao Wu. With Xiao Wu’s character, he is not the kind of person with deep thoughts, so Xiao Yu will not be with this. The eldest brother broke off the relationship, and because of this, both sides gave birth to children. If she only gave one side, it would not look good.

Xiao Wu: “No, no, there is food at home, keep it for Eleven.”

Lin Yiyi: “On the eleventh, I’ll go first, eldest brother, and the house is still waiting to be cleaned.”

Xiao Wu: “Hey.” Seeing that Lin Yiyi was gone, Xiao Wu looked at what Lin Yiyi put down and sighed.

Lin Yiyi came out of Xiao Wu’s house. I went to say hello to the elders again, but Qin Xiangju and Grandma Xiao were not there, and even Grandpa Xiao didn’t know where to go, so Lin Yiyi went home first.

Jixiang followed her around like a little tail, which made Lin Yiyi find it interesting: “Why don’t you play Jixiang?”

Auspicious: “Brother wants to hide and seek, let Er Auntie find him.”

Lin Yiyi: “Auspicious is really a good brother.”

Lucky smiled shyly.

Lin Yiyi returned home and saw Lin Wujun and Li Wanda in the yard, but didn’t see Eleven: “Where’s Eleven?”

Lin Wujun: “Hide, let you find him.”

Lin Yiyi: “Okay, I’ll go find him and hide at home, right?”

Lin Wujun: “At home.”

Lin Yiyi walked into the house and searched several rooms, but she didn’t let it go under the bed or in the cabinet, but she didn’t find her son. Then she opened the back door again, and there was no place to plant grapes behind. Finally, she came to the yard again and searched the thatched hut, pig den and other places, but there was still no one there.

Lin Wujun looked at his sister and smiled arrogantly: “Can’t you find it?”

Lin Yiyi said, “I really can’t find it. Eleven, my mother admits defeat. Come out quickly.”

When she finished speaking, the grass next to her moved. Her son crawled out of it.

Lin Yiyi: “…” Who would have thought that Little Eleven would hide under her nose? Besides, she hadn’t been home for a few months, so how could she care about the haystack in the yard, she thought it was kept by Xiao Yu or Qin Xiangju, and could be used to start a fire when it was burning.

Little Eleven smiled and held out his chest: “I can’t find them one by one.”

Lin Yiyi: “Yeah, if you hide so well, my mother can’t find you.”

Little Eleven heard the words and laughed even more happily. However, he scratched his ears: “One by one, the ears are itchy.”

Lin Yiyi’s sharp eyes: “What’s wrong with the ears?”

Little Eleven turned sideways: “Itchy.”

I saw that the back of the ear had been scratched red by him, and there were still pieces, as if they were allergic. Lin Yiyi didn’t think that it was bitten by insects. There are no insects in winter, so it should be that the child’s skin was tender and was stabbed by grass. However: “Don’t hide in the haystack in the future. There are bugs in the haystack. The bugs will bite your ears and your butt.”

Little Eleven heard the words. Quickly cover your ass.

Lin Yiyi took him to wash his face, then washed his ears with cool water, then took out toothpaste, squeezed a piece and smeared it on his ears. The toothpaste has anti-inflammatory and calming effects without irritation. After applying it, Lin Yiyi blew on Little Eleven’s ears: “How is it, is it still itchy?”

Little Eleven shook his head: “It’s not itchy anymore.”

Lin Yiyi: “If it still itches, tell your mother, and your mother will take you to the doctor.”

Little Eleven: “Okay.”

At noon, Lin Yiyi made fried rice with eggs. They went out early in the morning and had breakfast earlier, so they had to eat lunch earlier, otherwise the children would be hungry quickly. No, just after the meal was cooked, Qin Xiangju came: “One by one…”

Lin Yiyi: “Hey, mother, I just went to the old house, and there is no one at home.”

Qin Xiangju came in with a basket of vegetables: “your grandma and I went to wash the sheets and quilts. When I got home, I heard the boss said you were back, so I picked some vegetables for you.”

Lin Yiyi: “Thank you mother.”

Qin Xiangju put down the basket: “Little Eleven, do you remember grandma?”

Little Eleven: “Remember.” Actually, he didn’t remember much, but he didn’t say anything, so he knew to call him grandma, “Grandma.”

Qin Xiangju: “Yeah, good grandson…” After saying that, she went to kiss Xiao Shi’s face, only to see the toothpaste on his ear, she was shocked, “What’s wrong with his ear?”

Lin Yiyi talked about hide-and-seek: “It should be fine if you put some toothpaste on. If it still itches, take him to the doctor.”

Qin Xiangju: “That’s fine, the child’s skin is tender, and it will be fine in a while.” In the countryside, this is not a problem.

Lin Yiyi: “Mother, we’re ready to eat, egg fried rice and seaweed soup, you can have some together.”

Qin Xiangju: “No, I’ll go back to eat. Little Eleven, grandma is gone.”

Lin Yiyi: “On the eleventh, go to see grandma.”

Little Eleven: “I’ll send Grandma Ya.”

Qin Xiangju smiled crookedly: “Okay, okay.”

Little Eleven sent Qin Xiangju to the gate of the yard, and then ran inside. He was anxious to eat egg fried rice. Qin Xiangju felt cute when she saw her grandson’s hurrying figure.

After lunch, Lin Yiyi said to Lin Wujun: “Little Wu, sister went to the county to buy football, you can take care of everyone at home.”

When Lin Wujun heard it, “don’t worry, sister, I will take care of everyone, you have to come back soon.” He passed the final exam first, and his sister finally wanted to reward him with football. So happy, he has seen football in the army and he likes it very much.
