Chapter 269 A busy day
These three pheasants were specially left for Zhang Yu by the old man, or it can be said that they were left for the three children.
The old man knows that children like colorful items.
The old man didn't have much to offer, so he simply kept three wild roosters and kept their feathers as gifts for the three children.
Nuannuan Xinxin and Goudan were indeed attracted by this gorgeous color.
Each person got one and stroked the feathers repeatedly with his palms. He liked it very much for a while.
However, Zhang Yu didn't let the children touch them too much. After all, they were all dead things. Even though it was winter, he was still worried that the remaining bacteria would erode the children's bodies.
In fact, strange to say, these three children have been in good health since they were young, and their height is also among the best among their peers.
Some people say that the food in Zhang Yu’s family is good, with almost no shortage of meat, and plenty of eggs to supplement the children’s nutrition.
But to put it this way, the conditions of the Shazhu family are not much worse than those of the Zhang Yu family.
After all, Shazhu is the chef of the steel rolling mill, so he has absolutely no shortage of food.
He Miao is not as tall as Xin Xin, and He Xin is not as tall as Goudan.
Not only that, these three children also have very few colds and fevers from childhood to adulthood.
In Zhang Yu’s impression, when Nuannuan and Xinxin were about three years old, they had a fever in the middle of the night, and Zhang Yu and Mengyi went to the hospital carrying their children.
From then until I am seven years old now, I have never had a fever.
Goudan is even more outrageous. I haven’t had a cold or fever yet.
Of course, this is an example, but through Zhang Yu's observation, children these years are indeed solid.
There is no such thing as catching a cold every three days. It is much better than those children in later generations.
"Nuan Nuan, take your sister and brother to find a basin. Dad will pluck the pheasant later."
"If you like these feathers, when daddy sheds his feathers later, you can tell which ones are yours and collect them yourself."
In order to prevent the children from reaching out, Zhang Yu simply arranged tasks for the children.
Nuan Nuan understood it as soon as she heard it, and led her sister and brother to find a pot.
"Mom, do we still have hot water?"
"Yes, you wait for me to find it for you."
In fact, it stands to reason that in terms of old traditions, there are many taboos on the first day of the new year. The most common ones you hear are: not allowed, you can’t cook new rice, don’t quarrel, don’t do housework, don’t take medicine randomly, and married daughters are not allowed to return to their parents’ homes.
.
However, now that the whole country is getting rid of the old, there is no need to follow this matter.
Of course, whether you can do this depends entirely on the individual.
In fact, Lao Wang originally wanted to tell Zhang Yu this, but considering that Zhang Yu belongs to the youth of the new era and graduated from college, he may have doubts about these old traditions, so Lao Wang simply stopped talking.
But, would Zhang Yu, who grew up in the countryside, not know this old tradition?
Of course I know, like not doing housework or cooking, in Zhang Yu’s opinion, it’s pure fart.
This year is not the 21st century. In the 21st century, if you don’t want to cook, you can just go to a restaurant.
Many hotels are open on the first day of junior high school, so you can go to eat anytime and anywhere.
Nowadays, even state-owned hotels have to close their doors and go home to celebrate the New Year. This is not an era where service is paramount. Today’s state-owned hotel employees have iron rice bowls and they all look up to others.
If you want them to open their doors on the first day of the Lunar New Year, it is just a pure dream.
Therefore, not cooking at home is sheer nonsense, and the whole family is waiting to eat.
In order to follow the old tradition, I stopped eating and went hungry all day long.
With this method, good people are starving, not to mention that Mengyi is still pregnant and needs to supplement various nutrients. This depends on the old tradition. Mengyi is starving, so Zhang Yu simply takes a knife.
Wipe your neck.
Zhang Yu finally finished cleaning up the three chickens after spending a long time.
By the time I put away the trash, it was getting dark.
I rushed into the kitchen and started working on dinner.
I only used one chicken for dinner, and the other two were hung up in a high place. It was a natural refrigerator outside today!
Zhang Yu was busy cooking, and Lao Wang helped steam the steamed buns and corn tortillas.
Finally, at eight o'clock, the family sat at the dining table on time.
After eating and drinking enough, he cleared the table and helped Mengyi back to the house to rest. Zhang Yu then sat on the sofa and drank tea and chatted with Lao Yuan while resting.
It was such a busy day, and Zhang Yu was very tired no matter how good his physique was.
Before Zhang Yu could take a few sips, Mengyi's scream suddenly came from the back room, followed by the cry of a child.
The family's nerves immediately became tense, and Zhang Yu quickly dropped the teacup and rushed into the back room.
"Daughter-in-law, are you going to give birth?"
"Zhang Yu, my stomach hurts so much!"
Lao Wang, who followed him in, immediately judged that Mengyi might be giving birth.
"Zhang Yu, go and push the car out quickly."
"Lao Yuan, come here and help me help Mengyi get into the car."
At this time, the children stared at their mother nervously.
Zhang Yu quickly pushed the car to the door of the house.
Lao Wang and Lao Yuan helped Mengyi out and asked Mengyi to sit sideways in the car.
Lao Wang asked Zhang Yu and Lao Yuan to go to the hospital first.
Zhang Yu and Lao Yuan did not dare to delay, so they quickly pushed the cart to the hospital.
Lao Wang put on thick clothes for the children, found the bedding that had been prepared, and led the children quickly towards the hospital.
When Lao Wang arrived at the door of the delivery room, he saw Zhang Yu walking in the corridor.
Lao Wang felt that this was not the solution, so he thought of a way.
"Zhang Yu, stop hanging around there."
"Nuan Nuan and their mood are unstable. Come over and give them some guidance."
When Zhang Yu heard that Nuannuan and the others were emotionally unstable, he immediately suppressed his anxiety.
Picking up Goudan, Zhang Yu sat between Nuannuan and Xinxin. The three children leaned on their father, and their uneasy mood was finally relieved.
Before Zhang Yu could open his mouth to comfort the children, the three children fell asleep leaning against Zhang Yu one after another.
In this way, the three children and the three children began a long wait outside the delivery room.
"Click!"
After an unknown amount of time, the delivery room door finally opened from the outside to the inside, and two nurses walked out quickly holding the two little ones.
Zhang Yu just wanted to get up, but considering the children on him, Lao Wang had to step forward to negotiate.
"Hello nurse."
The nurse congratulated Lao Wang happily and asked about the child's father.
"Congratulations to the family, who is the father of the child?"
"Comrade nurse, I'm here."
Zhang Yu quickly opened his mouth to cater.
The nurse held the two little ones and approached Zhang Yu.
"Congratulations, they are a twin boy and a girl. The girl was born at 10:05 and the boy was born at 10:07."
"Both babies are very healthy. The girl weighs six pounds and four ounces, and the boy weighs six pounds and two ounces."
"Dad, do you want to hold the baby?"
Zhang Yu nodded vigorously and asked Lao Wang and Lao Yuan to take Nuannuan and the others over first.
Zhang Yu took out his hand and took the two children over.
The nurse also taught Zhang Yu how to identify his sister and brother.
Zhang Yu looked at the two children, and although he was very happy, he still didn't let go until Mengyi came out.
"Comrade nurse, where is my wife? Why didn't she come out?"
When the nurse heard Zhang Yu asking about his wife, she couldn't help but look at Zhang Yu immediately.
"Oh, the mother is undergoing post-treatment and will be pushed out soon. Family members, don't worry."
