Chapter 183 A thoughtful gift
Ji Mingxuan pinched Du Yuwei's cheek gently: "That's right, the Chinese New Year is all about eating, drinking, having fun, and just being happy."
The things they originally bought back were quite complete, and those were the only things in the market. Du Yuwei and Ji Mingxuan walked from the beginning to the end of the market, and bought a bunch of candied haws for Du Yuwei. There was nothing else they needed to buy.
Du Yuwei was enjoying herself after wandering around the market for so long. Thinking that there were still many things she needed to prepare at home, she pulled Ji Mingxuan home.
After returning home, I saw that the couplets were being posted at home.
In the past, whenever Ji Mingxuan came back, he would be responsible for posting the couplets.
Ji Mingxuan is tall and has a high altitude, so posting couplets is much easier than others.
"You're back just in time, I'll post it."
Ji Mingxuan went back to the house and changed into a handmade cotton-padded jacket that belonged to his uncle. It was a little small, but it was light and warm and much more comfortable than a down jacket.
Seeing Ji Mingxuan wearing this cotton-padded jacket, grandma immediately remembered what she had prepared and quickly told her daughter-in-law to get it.
"Chunyan, go and take out the cotton-padded jackets we made and give them to Weiwei Mingxuan and others to try on, as well as the babies' ones, to see if they fit."
Grandma said with a smile.
The eldest aunt slapped her forehead: "Mom, look at my memory, it's not as good as yours. I'll get it right now!"
After Zhao Chunyan said that, she hurriedly went to the back room and soon took out a pile of new cotton-padded jackets.
"Weiwei, Mingxuan, you two stop working so hard and come over here to try on your new cotton-padded jacket!"
Du Yuwei and Ji Mingxuan looked at each other, put down their things and hurried into the house.
"Wow, is this made for us? It's so beautiful!"
Du Yuwei took the cotton-padded jacket and saw that hers was a cotton-padded jacket with a small red plaid pattern and a white fur collar. It was soft and delicate. You could hardly feel the weight in your hand, but when it touched the skin, it felt warm. Feel.
The eldest aunt smiled and said: "Your grandma, me and your second aunt made this for you. I don't know if it suits you. Try it quickly. Your grandma did it seriously. She spent a day wearing reading glasses. I drove out the three babies’ little cotton-padded jackets.”
The three small flower cotton-padded jackets are similar in style. They are all in a bright red color. It can be seen that grandma has really put her heart into it. The stitching is evenly arranged and every stitch is done carefully to prevent the babies from getting wind into the sleeves when wearing them. When I catch a cold, my grandma specially made cuffs with elastic bands, which are not strangling at all and can ensure a tight fit.
Feeling extremely moved, Du Yuwei raised her head and said with a smile, "Thank you, grandma and aunt and uncle, for taking the trouble!"
"You kid, why are you bothering? Your grandma said you would stay here for a few more days during the Chinese New Year. She thought it would be inconvenient for you to wear heavy down jackets every day, so she made these cotton-padded jackets for you. They will be light and warm to wear. Try them now. try."
Du Yuwei nodded and went to the back room to change into a new cotton-padded jacket. Ji Mingxuan also quickly changed into a cotton-padded jacket. The size was just right. He felt warm when he put it on.
Du Yuwei moved her arms easily and sighed: "This handmade cotton jacket is really a good thing. It is so comfortable to wear. I will take it back when I go back."
Ji Mingxuan looked at his wife putting on this cotton-padded jacket and immediately felt much more down-to-earth. He couldn't help but touch the top of her hair and teased: "Weiwei, if I give you two more braids, you will be the most beautiful little cotton-padded jacket girl in our village." Nier!”
"Fuck you, I don't want to wear cotton braids, you're so stupid!"
The two joked quietly for a while, then left the back room one after another.
Grandma smiled from ear to ear as soon as she saw them: "We Weiwei and Mingxuan are good-looking and look good in whatever clothes they wear. These cotton-padded jackets fit them so well."
Du Yuwei nodded: "Well, grandma, the size is just right, and it's also warm and brisk. We like it very much!"
"Just like it. Look at the baby's size. It's just right. I didn't expect that the size I estimated was really wrong."
Du Yuwei looked at the three babies. They had all put on new cotton-padded jackets. They were lying on the sofa, kicking their legs and stretching their little arms. They were having a lot of fun. She must have felt a lot lighter after putting on comfortable cotton-padded jackets.
"Looking at them like this, you know they must be very comfortable."
Grandma looked at the three babies with a kind smile on her face: "Grandma doesn't know how to make anything else. She can still make cotton-padded jackets, cotton pants and small cotton shoes. When I have time, I will make some for the three of them. It's the kind we make ourselves." Comfortable to wear!”
The more Du Yuwei looked at the babies' clothes, the more adorable they felt. She couldn't help but take out her phone to take some photos of the three of them and keep them on her phone.
"By the way, grandma, the photos we took last time have been made. This time I couldn't take them anymore, so I didn't bring them back. I'll bring them back to you when I come back next time. But this time we picked out some small sets and I got the photo album back, take a look first!"
Ji Mingxuan took out the stage photos and album and showed them to grandma and the others.
"This is the photo we took that day? Why do I look so young? And the scenery of our village. Isn't this the land in Houhe? It looks so good in the photo!"
Grandma looked at every photo seriously and praised it repeatedly.
"Mingxuan, you can just be a photographer, the photos are so good!"
The uncle picked up one of the photo albums and looked at it for a while, sighing from the bottom of his heart.
"Hey, uncle, my photography skills are far behind those of those photographers. I am just taking pictures of our own home for fun. You guys watch first while I go and post Spring Festival couplets!"
"I am coming too!"
Du Yuwei didn't want to miss such an interesting thing, so she quickly followed Ji Mingxuan out.
The spring couplets prepared by the uncle's family are the popular ones with tapes on the four corners. They are convenient and beautiful, and they won't make the walls or doors particularly dirty. Ji Mingxuan moved quickly and didn't need help from others. He pasted the spring couplets on the door in a short while.
Du Yuwei just took a video of him with her mobile phone next to him.
Ji Mingxuan joked: "Weiwei, you should make me look more handsome, find a good angle, and take pictures of my long legs that have nowhere to go. Add a filter in post-production, and add music to it, and the artistic conception will come out."
Du Yuwei smiled helplessly: "That's enough, long legs that have nowhere to go, look how beautiful you are!"
After the couplets were posted, the eldest uncle and the second uncle came out and asked Ji Mingxuan, with uncontrollable excitement on their faces: "Mingxuan, after dinner, do you want to trap rabbits in the fields? Yesterday, your second uncle and I set traps in the fields. Let's go this afternoon to see if we can trap a few!"
Every Spring Festival, the eldest uncle and the second uncle like to go to the mountains to trap wild rabbits to eat. The meat of this kind of pure wild rabbit is delicious, which is completely incomparable to the domestic rabbits sold in the market.
