After lunch, Guo Xiang helped clean up. Wang Guiying quickly said, "take the children back to the house to have a rest. I'll come here."

"I've scrubbed your house, and the quilt is also the new cotton this year. The bedding has been dried. Go and see how it is. If it's not warm enough, I'll get you a quilt in the evening." Wang Guiying said.

"Hey, thank you." Guo Xiang nodded. Her mother-in-law was always considerate.

When I went to the room, there were two beds in it. Maybe I was afraid that the bed was too small to sleep with my children, so I added a small bed.

The bedding on it is new.

The quilt is still hand sewn. The red silk quilt is full of local flavor. The twins like it very much when they see it. They take off their shoes and climb to the bed and jump up.

"Be careful not to collapse the bed." Guo Xiang smiled.

Gu Zhennan squatted down and looked, "it's all right. It's a brown bed. It's not so easy to break."

There is this kind of brown bed in the countryside. The outer frame is solid wood, and the inside is woven with brown rope. It is double-layer. It is not as soft as Simmons's spring bed, and it is not as hard as the wooden bed. It is moderately soft and hard. It is very comfortable to sleep.

The twins jumped on the brown bed as a trampoline and had a good time.

"Is Grandma's house fun?" Guo Xiang asked as he cleaned up his things.

"Fun!" The two little dumplings shouted happily, "the vegetable field is the most fun. Can we go to the vegetable field tomorrow?"

"Yes." Guo Xiang smiled. The vegetable field is not far behind the yard. The weather is good and the field is dry. He is not afraid of getting dirty. "But you can't go near the water or play near the fish pond, you know?"

"I see!" The two small groups answered in unison.

"Master can't go to him when he goes to the capital this year. I don't know who is in charge of the health station now." Guo Xiang said.

"It's time for a holiday. It's almost the new year. It is said that the current doctors are sent from the town, but they are not like Dr. Ji who was in the village all day. " Gu Zhennan said.

Guo Xiang nodded. Yes, it would be better if the village had its own doctor.

At this time, Guo'er knocked on the door and said, "sister-in-law, I want to go to my classmate's house. Can I take Ping Ping and an?"

Guo Xiang looked at the two children. "Do you want to go out with your aunt?"

"Yes!" The two children hurriedly said that they had never been to the countryside before and were extremely curious about the outside.

"Then go!" Guo Xiang nodded and said to Guo Er, "but you should look at them in person. You can't let others help you. Others won't care. Don't go to dangerous places."

"Well, I know. Don't worry, sister-in-law." Guo'er nodded and waved to the two children, "go, go, go out with your aunt."

The two children shouted happily, quickly climbed out of bed, put on their shoes and took their aunt's hand, and couldn't wait to run out.

Wang Guiying poked her head out of the kitchen. "Be careful and watch the children."

"Mom, I know." Guo'er answered and went out with the hands of the two children.

Gu Zhennan saw them go, closed the door and hugged Guo Xiang. "Are you tired? Do you want to have a rest?"

"OK!" Guo Xiang leaned in Gu Zhennan's arms and looked at the room. He was here when he wore it. It's been more than six years, almost seven years. Time is so fast.

"What's the matter?" Gu Zhennan felt that his daughter-in-law's mood seemed a little different.

"Nothing. I suddenly remembered the past. When I first came, I woke up in this room, and you weren't at home." Guo Xiang smiled. "I didn't know what kind of person you were at that time. I thought, you were forced to marry me. I want to divorce you."

"Who knew I would meet you on the train later..." Guo Xiang smiled.

"In fact, when I think about it now, I really appreciate aunt Guo's cheating on me, otherwise I wouldn't have married you." Gu Zhennan hugged Guo Xiang, "at that time, life was always unhappy, there was no one he liked, and he didn't want to marry Yu XiuXiu. If he wanted to be a fool, he would be a fool. It doesn't matter..."

"Who would have thought that I could find a baby." Gu Zhennan smiled and kissed Guo Xiang on the forehead.

Guo Xiang turned to face Gu Zhennan, sat on his lap and put his arm around his neck.

"I'm also glad to meet you..." then he bowed his head and kissed Gu Zhennan on his lips.

"Me too!" Gu Zhennan's voice doesn't feel gentle. His heart is soft. The luckiest thing in his life is to meet his daughter-in-law and marry her.

……

Soon on New Year's Eve, someone set off firecrackers early in the morning, and both small groups were awakened by fear.

"What's that sound?" Two small groups sat up in a daze.

Fireworks are now strictly prohibited in the capital. Fireworks can only be set off in designated places, so the two small groups have not seen them yet.

"This is the sound of setting off firecrackers. Get up and let dad take you to set off firecrackers." Guo Xiang said.

"Oh, set off firecrackers!" The two small groups shouted happily. These days in the countryside, they also saw other children playing with scattered firecrackers. They were curious and afraid. They didn't dare to play if they wanted to play. Now their father is so happy to take them.

Gu Zhennan smiled, got up and dressed, and helped two small groups wear them together.

Usually the two small groups can wear clothes by themselves, but they can't wear thick clothes in winter, so they have to help them wear them together.

When she got dressed and went out, Wang Guiying got up and asked, "why don't you sleep more?"

"The sound of firecrackers is too loud to sleep. Mom, do we have firecrackers in our house? I'll take the children and put a string. " Gu Zhennan said.

"Yes, I'll get it for you!" Wang Guiying smiled.

I took a not too long firecracker, which should be kept for the new year's Eve dinner and when I opened the door to welcome the new year on the morning of the first lunar month.

Gu Zhennan took the firecrackers, took them to the gate of the hospital, put them on the steps, and brought a pack of matches.

He usually doesn't smoke, so he doesn't have a lighter. He goes to the kitchen to get matches.

"I'm going to set off firecrackers. Cover my ears peacefully and safely!" Gu Zhennan said.

Two small groups hurriedly covered their ears with their hands, stood in the gate of the yard and looked nervously at the outside.

Gu Zhennan struck a match, lit a lead at the end of the firecracker, and then quickly stepped back.

The firecrackers immediately exploded and crackled. The firecrackers in the back jumped up like clockwork, and then exploded and fell into red pieces.

The two small groups tightly covered their ears, pursed their mouths and looked at the exploding firecrackers with a nervous face.

After the firecrackers were blown up, Gu Zhennan looked on the ground, "let's see if there are any small firecrackers."

As soon as the two little dumplings heard it, they also ran to find it.

"I found one!" Pingping happily picked up a small firecracker that didn't explode, with only a short lead on it.

"I found one, too!" Ann cried in surprise.

"Come on, give it to Dad." Gu Zhennan stretched out his hand, "you are too young to play with firecrackers, or you will blow your hand, you know?"

"Oh!" The two small groups answered. Although they wanted to play, they still didn't dare to play. The firecrackers blew up very scary.

Gu Zhennan put a small firecracker on the threshold, pulled out a incense inserted by Wang Guiying by the door and lit the firecracker with the incense.

The lead of an unburned firecracker is too short. If you light it with a match, it's easy to blow your hand if it's not fast enough.
