Raising Babies in the 70s - Chapter 138

“Yes, he must have met Lu Yan. Knowing that Lu Yan also married Qin Rou, he misunderstood my relationship with Lu Yan…”

“Bah! You think I don’t know? Lu Yan’s wife just gave him a pair of fat boys. The husband and wife are loving and they have no relationship with you. Our Zhao family didn’t misunderstand anything.”

“You eat from our food, use our family, but have you been a good wife to my brother in recent years? Bah, it took my brother eight lifetimes to marry such a thing as you, and now that he has figured it out, don’t come to harm my Zhao family.” 

At the end of January 1973, Zhouzhou and Jiaozi were six months old, and Qin Rou started to add complementary food to them, feeding them egg yolk puree, fish puree, tofu puree, pumpkin puree and the like. Those two little guys could eat everything well.

After they ate the supplementary food, if Qin Rou was there, they would be hunched over again and wanted to be breastfeed after a while.

“You hungry ghosts! Haven’t you eaten enough just now?!”

 “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!”

She didn’t know what was going on, they just wanted to eat.

 “It won’t be digested so quickly, will it?”

Qin Rou went to feed them some pumpkin puree again, but the two babies disliked it. The two little guys were able to sit up. Thinking that the temperature was quite high during the day, Qin Rou put a rep apron on those two and took pictures of them.

The two little babies who looked exactly the same sat opposite each other, just like looking at each other in the mirror. With each other’s eyes wide open, they looked at the older brother (younger brother) opposite him, drooled and kept making babble sounds.

 “Zhouzhou, go hug your brother.”

 “Ah ah ah…”

Those two little babies had begun to grow teeth, looking silly and cute.

Because of it, they had been drooling all over. In addition to washing their diapers, they had to add a drool pocket.

“You drooled all over the back of my hand. Jiaozi, you little rascal, hey, wait, you’re the elder brother.”

“The elder brother should be a good example for the younger brother.”

They were white and soft. Every morning, Qin Rou took the two little guys to sit in the baby stroller that their father had for them to bask in the sun for ten minutes in the yard, and colony members often came to watch.

 They all said that their children were raised so beautifully.

Her little babies were foodie. Although they were not fat, they were quite sturdy. They were like their father. Thewere two small bulges on the face, and the short arms were like the lotus knots. Their skin was soft and smooth. The skeleton was large, but when holding them, it felt that those were just two lumps of soft flesh with no bones.

It was also because their father’s genes were too strong that the twins looked exactly like Lu Yan. When outsiders saw them, they didn’t need to ask, and they knew that they were Chief Lu’s babies.

They were the short and cute version of Lu Yan.

 As a result, when Qin Rou looked at Lu Yan, she felt that he looked too serious.

 For that reason, Qin Rou said to Lu Yan with a serious face, “If your team members often come to our kids, would they delay your work in the future? I think you are as stupid as our sons, it’s easy to be fooled.”

“Our sons aren’t stupid, why would they be stupid?” Lu Yan smiled and hugged the two kids in his arms, one in each hand. But after hugging, there were two watermarks on his clothes.

The drooling cute kids looked stupid no matter how one looked at them.

Qin Rou found that her two little kids had a good temper. They seldom howled and cried. They were happy every day. They smiled when they saw their mother, and they smiled when they saw their father. They were also happy when they saw their grandparents. They also responded to Xia Mingxi with excitement and when Xiao Jingyi painted them both, they were also laughing… 

Those two children were also very easy to get along with.

As long as she gave them a bite to eat, after eating and drinking, they would roll over and act like spoiled children every day, and they would also perform and drool.

It was like two silly panda babies under the live broadcast camera.

Qin Rou never expected them to be so well-behaved and obedient. If her kids cried, she would coax them. 

In the past, she was afraid of giving birth to two Pipi shrimps, but at that moment Qin Rou was worried that she would raise two silly sons.

Qin Rou went to ask her mother-in-law Jiang Ping, “Was Lu Yan so obedient when he was a child?”

Jiang Ping hesitated for a shameful moment, then said, “Probably.”

Qin Rou: “…”

“When he was a few months old, he was the same as his sons.”

Qin Rou: “…Really?”

Jiang Ping felt that as a mother, she had to mention to her, “This is the best time when raising children.”

“Why?” Qin Rou, who became a mother for the first time, really didn’t think about it. She used to hear that when little babies cried and made noise, it upset the neighbors and caused the mother to suffer from postpartum depression. Her kids didn’t cry, didn’t make trouble, the brothers were good, they ate and drank happily every day, and there was no sign of bear babies (spoiled brats) at all. 

“These two babies can’t even crawl.”

Qin Rou: “…”

That was right.
