Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland-Chapter 353 - Meng Zhiqing_1
Chapter 353: Chapter 353 Meng Zhiqing_1
By the time she took the bus back to the town, it was already past lunchtime.
She returned home holding two fans.
“Hanhan, you’re back…..”
Old Zhao came and took the fans from her. The weight took him by surprise, “So heavy. Why didn’t you let me accompany you?”
Meng Yunhan let out a silly smile, “Not heavy, not heavy.”
“Little Huzi is asleep.”
...
The elder neighbor also had a child. Although Little Huzi was small, he had elder siblings to play with and had a good time which resulted in him sleeping after having a meal.
“Go and eat the porridge in the pot.”
With the fans, Little Huzi was really fascinated. Meng Yunhan was afraid that Little Huzi would reach out to touch them, so she warned him.
Because of the fans, that night, Meng Yunhan finally had a nice sleep.
She carried the basket weaved by Old Zhao, designed especially for carrying children. She held pastries she made the previous afternoon, and white sugar and noodles she bought from the supply and marketing cooperative, and returned to the village.

Due to the hot weather, Meng Yunhan set out early. She gave a piece of egg cake to Little Huzi to gnaw on and headed to the village.
Many people were busy in the fields at this time.
Upon returning to Qingzhao Village, Meng Yunhan saw a few villagers.
“Meng Zhiqing, are you on summer vacation?” She was back in the village, carrying a child and supplies, just as the summer break started.
“Yes, I’m on vacation. I’m back to see my parents.”
“Little Huzi, this is Grandmother, call her Grandmother.”
Little Huzi’s big clear eyes glanced at the woman upon Meng Yunhan’s command, then he averted his gaze, his casual demeanor made Meng Yunhan both amused and exasperated.
“Little Huzi has grown really sturdy.”
People all along the way greeted and talked to Meng Yunhan.
And Meng Yunhan, from start to finish, kept a smiling face and showed no impatience. Even when children approached her, she gave them candy.
And so she arrived at the Yun Family house.
She had the keys like last time, but this time she didn’t unlock the door immediately. Instead, she put down Little Huzi, gave him another piece of egg cake to eat, and let him wait.
“Little Huzi, you will meet Grandpa and Grandma in a bit, remember to greet them.” Meng Yunhan knew that Little Huzi was still small and might not understand what she was saying.
When Yunhan’s parents learned that Meng Yunhan and Little Huzi were back, they informed the team leader and took leave to go home.
They didn’t care about their work points anymore.
“Old man, I wonder if Little Huzi can talk or walk now?” Yunhan’s mother missed her grandson terribly.
Since the family separation, her daughters-in-law no longer brought their children to visit. The last time her sons brought their children over during Tomb Sweeping Day and Dragon Boat Festival, but the daughters-in-law didn’t show up. Were they still holding grudges over the filial piety incident?
“He’d be over a year old. He should be able to walk and call people now.” Yunhan’s father wasn’t quite sure, because most of the children in the village would only be steady walkers when they were nearing two. As for talking, it generally became clearer at the age of two.
In this era, as life was reliant on farming, they were only free from work for about a month before the New Year and were busy the rest of the time. Children were usually raised freely, with the older ones taking care of the younger ones. There was hardly any time to teach toddlers to walk or talk.
That’s why children tended to start walking and talking later than those in the city.
Upon arriving home, they saw the mother and son at the gatehouse. Little Huzi was in the process of gnawing on some food. The sight was so endearing that it melted the hearts of his grandparents.
