Raising Babies in the 70s - Chapter 109

A group of childrens were playing in the yard, and they were actually quite capable of babbling things. Fortunately, Qin Rou had two little nephews, and Little Fatty was extraordinarily responsible, “Don’t pick my little aunt’s flowers indiscriminately. Only my uncle could pick them.”

Qin Rou: “…” It seemed that the child observed carefully and focused on his uncle.

After playing for a long time, Chen Jingyi also talked more and emphasised, “We are the chicken guard team and we raised the leek.”

Xiao Jingyi’s memory was quite good.

Zhang Yichao was very generous, “Let’s go to my yard to play!”

Huang Xinying opened the yard door to the children. They picked a few flowers in the yard, and Qin Rou also picked some beans and sunflowers for them.

At night, when Zhang Chengbei came back to see his yard, only to find his only seedlings were gone, his mentality completely collapsed.

He threw the flower seeds in the yard and planned to quit later.

“I don’t care anymore!”

Zhang Chengbei filled up the previous pits and decided to give; the seeds that were bought were also scattered randomly in the corners.

He admitted his failure.

After Huang Xinying heard that he would never plant anything in the yard again, she decided to celebrate at home that day, “Yichao, let’s have a good meal at night!”

“Okay, do you want dad to cook?”

Huang Xinying: “?”

Zhang Yichao: “My wife said that she wants me to cook.”

Huang Xinying: “Who is your wife? ” 

“Liu Yue!”

Zhang Chengbei: “…What are you talking about?”

Huang Xinying: “He played with other children today. He became the father, and Liu Yue became the mother.”

Zhang Chengbei: “…” It’s outrageous, it’s outrageous!

After the children dispersed, everything was calm. Lu Yan didn’t come back at night. Qin Rou was lying on the bed, holding the album and looking at the photos of her man. That day’s family play had quite an impact on her.

Little Fatty and Lu Yan were uncle and nephew. Little Fatty was a social freak and a good friend. Was it not in the gene?

Qin Rou thought that Lu Yan’s popularity was also quite good.

She touched her belly, thinking about the possibility of the two of them combining to give birth to two sea king Pipi shrimps with natural social thorns.

Qin Rou: “…”

This idea was really messed up.

Qin Rou advised herself not to think about these strange things, in case it really might affect the babies in the womb. The babies in the womb were three to four months old. Their hearing system had been initially formed, and they could perceive the surrounding environment, movement and stillness. Prenatal education must be done well.

——It was even more necessary to create a harmonious family atmosphere.

It was estimated that things during the day had affected her, or that the pregnant woman had some sleep problems. Qin Rou had a dream at night. She dreamed that she and the boy version of Lu Yan were in a large courtyard playing with other children. In the house yard, Lu Yan played the father, she played the mother, and both mother and father worked hard, and then she gave birth to two Pippi shrimps.

They were really Pipi shrimps.

Their children were Pipi shrimps.

Dreaming of that, Qin Rou woke up with fright. What a strange dream it was.

At the same time, she was a little jealous. When she saw the children in the compound playing together, she thought it was normal for children their age to have a childhood sweetheart. She suddenly started to imagine Lu Yan playing as a father with his childhood sweetheart.

After the jealousy was gone, Qin Rou also felt that she was quite inexplicable. Some people did get jealous of their partner’s ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend. She, a cautious person, even got jealous wondering whether her husband played family with others when he was a child.

When Qin Mian came to pick up the child, Qin Rou asked about something that happened to Chen Jingyi. Qin Mian then recalled that some days ago, some people around them spread gossip.

“They are saying that Jingyi is not like the Chen family, so they suspect the child is not his…” Sister Qin Mian was also a beauty, and beautiful people always attracted the attention of many men. At that time, when the Chen family was in trouble, some long-tongued women made rumors. 

“Sister, in the future, let brother-in-law come to take Jingyi to let them get along more. They are biological father and son.”

Qin Mian was stunned, “Do men look after children too?”

“Of course men also have to look after the children!” Qin Rou thought to herself that the communication between parents and children must be improved.

“But he can’t take care of the child.”

“Nobody knows everything at birth. Sister, look, Juanjuan can help take care of the children at such a young age, why can’t my brother-in-law?”

“You are Jingyi’s father and mother. You should give him more verbal recognition and encouragement. Tell him that he is your child and you like him very much and care about him,” Qin Rou wanted to give the child enough sense of safety.

The parent-child interaction in childhood would affect the child’s formation of an attachment relationship. They should give him a loving response to make him trust his parents, believe in love, and establish a secure parent-child attachment relationship, rather than avoidant and anxious.

“He’s been a lot more lively recently.” 

Qin Rou told her sister how Jingyi and Xia Mingxi went to kindergarten and met Lin Yaoyang, which made her sister laugh.

“Okay, I’ll let his father accompany him more when I go back.”
