The first time in life: the first time for the eldest girl to take a child

For the first time in my life:

First time with small children

/Yang Jianyu (Deep Mountain Old Forest)

Last year's Spring Festival did not return to the hometown for the New Year, and in the video chat with her sister, she dragged the child who was playing on the side and said to me, This is Jiajia's youngest child! And asked the child to call me my second aunt.

I looked at it and couldn't help but laugh, isn't this Xiao Jiajia? It's like a mold carved out!

My sister smiled, very similar, sometimes, looking at him, I remembered Jiajia when I was a child!

I can't help but feel that time has passed too quickly, Jiajia's youngest children are so old! And his own memory is still frozen in the time when Jiajia was young!

At that time, my sister set up a street stall near their home to sell vegetables, the brother-in-law was responsible for going into the city to wholesale vegetables, usually can also be busy, a hand over the Wax Moon, the business began to grow, can put a long slip, the types of dishes are also more, each category is also divided into grades, the price is different. Sometimes the brother-in-law also pulled back a bundle or two of sugar cane to sell. My sister was definitely too busy to come alone, so she asked me, an idle person, to go to a stall and help her mother-in-law cook or something.

At that time, my sister's child Jiajia was about three years old, with a small flat head, a round face, and two large eyes that were slightly sunken, because of her thinness, her neck appeared to be somewhat slender.

I am usually not at home, and I am close to my sister, so naturally I am not very familiar with Xiao Jiajia. After I went, I couldn't contact my feelings for a while, he was always very busy, he didn't go home in the middle of the night, and when he was eating, he called him half a day to come back, and after eating in a hurry, he ran again. Only once did I see him.

It should be a falling out with his little friend, running home crying with his mouth wide open, slamming the courtyard door shut, and then climbing up the wall, clipping his toy water gun to the top of the wall, squinting one eye, doing the look of aiming at the target, screaming in his mouth, humming unconvincingly, come! Who is afraid of whom?

I just came back from the street to his house, covered my mouth and smiled, and said, Jiajia, hurry down and open the door for me!

He took his sleeve and put the tears in his tears and cried and said, Don't open! Don't open!

I was trying to say something. At this time, a few children came from behind, only shouted Jiajia, he put down the water gun, slipped out of the wall to open the door, did not say anything, and went with his friends.

The friendship of my childhood was more or less like this, regardless of the gap, I just broke up, turned around and reconciled again.

At that time, my sister's family had not yet built a new house on the side of the road, and the housing was small and inconvenient. Every day at four or five o'clock in the afternoon, I took the bus back. At the time, I couldn't ride a bike yet!

After the twenty-third day of the Waxing Moon, the sisters' vegetable stall business was more prosperous, and she actually "had to go in", and wanted me to take Jiajia home for the night, so that she could get up earlier, or follow her brother-in-law to help buy goods in the middle of the night.

I was hesitant because Jiajia and I didn't develop any affection at all, my sister was working outside the home, my mother was in poor health, and my grandson let me go back to live at night. My father opened a family clinic and would come out at any time. I...... I am a Ma Daha, temperamental and tepid, where to have patience to take children!

My sister said, I'm afraid! Jiajia is a well-behaved child, may cry the night before, a night passed, get used to it, and be very obedient.

I clearly understood that this was not only the meaning of my sister, I was afraid that my brother-in-law also had this heart, but it was not convenient to express it, and I gritted my teeth and agreed to it.

My sister found two sets of children's clothes to change and wash, put them in a handbag, let me carry them on my shoulders, and then coaxed Xiao Jiajia to go with me, saying that I could go to my grandmother's house to play with my cousin, where there were a lot of delicious and fun.

The child who was nibbling on the sugar cane nodded happily and followed me to the waiting point on the side of the road to wait for the bus.

In the previous night, my sister never let Jiajia leave her body, and the child played greedily, and when it was dark, she obediently went home without adults shouting.

They will be separated overnight, and tomorrow morning I will send the children over. When my sister turned around, her eyes were red.

At that time, the big girl's I could not understand her mood, a flick of the mouth, laughing at her too delicate child, is it worth being sad?

The bus came very late that day, and by the time we boarded the bus, it was nearly twilight.

The child had been nibbling on the most-cut sugar cane, and when the car came, I carried him up. There were no shortages of seats, only standing. I grabbed the back of the seat on the side with one hand, pulled him with the other, and whispered, Jiajia, you can't spit garbage in the car, and we will eat it when we get home!

He cried, alarming the eyes of a car, the big girl's face was so embarrassed that my face was hot, I panicked to cover his mouth, ordered him to stop quickly, everyone was watching you cry!

The people on the side quickly gave us a seat, and I said, no, the child is timid, has not taken a car.

Jia Jiaha snorted, rushed, who has not taken the car, me and my father always took the car to the city!

At this point, everyone in the car laughed.

At this time, but I heard someone at the back of the car shouting my name and standing up at the same time.

I looked at a male classmate when I was studying, smiled awkwardly, and said a conversation, haha, such a coincidence!

The old classmate wanted to give up his seat, and I said no, the child did not want to sit. He nagged again, at first he didn't dare to recognize, slowly observed, only to confirm that it is you!

I was afraid of affecting the passengers in the car again, and I was even more afraid that people would misunderstand each other's relationship, and only vaguely muttered twice, ending his nagging.

Get off at the station, get home, and just catch up with the meal. Coarse tea is vegetarian, and the little guy eats it with taste. After dinner, I was clamoring to find an old watch to play. I was the first to object, they ate early and went to bed. Let's pack up and go to sleep! Tomorrow morning, before I get up, my cousin will come!

My mother wanted to coax him to sleep, but I insisted on coming by myself, saying that I had promised him that I would do a good job.

At that time, in the winter, it was very inconvenient to take a bath at home, and if it was not good, it would catch a cold, and people who wanted to take a bath generally ran to the bathhouse in the town, spending a dollar, you can soak for half a day.

Limited by the conditions, just help him soak his feet, you can.

When he went to bed, he hadn't forgotten the sugar cane. Cold and cold, hold it in your hand. The cut part has been gnawed, and the remaining part is not cut, it is very hard.

I discussed with him, Jiajia, we are going to sleep, let's eat tomorrow! Eat it at night, and the stomach will grow worms and make a lot of pain!

He didn't listen, and sat against the back wall, his puppy teeth tearing hard at the sugarcane bone.

Afraid he was tired of his teeth, I strained my face and got off his sugar cane.

This time, poke the honeycomb again! He cried again.

The mother asked next door, what's wrong? Will you bring children?

I looked up and said, no problem, just don't want him to eat sugar cane!

Looking down, I whispered to him, hurry up and go to bed, try to get up in front of your cousin tomorrow morning, and then grandpa will reward you with a big bag of delicious food, even fun.

He listened, stopped crying, but his throat was still choking, he was gasping for breath, and even later fell asleep, and heard him swallow a long time.

The next day, after I handed Jiajia to my sister, I smiled and said that this time only, I would not help you bring it.

Later, for a long time, there was always the sound of children choking in their sleep, and when they woke up, they touched the pillow, empty, and then they lay down with confidence.
