After breakfast, Xiang Cheng Tian and Xiang Yu prepared the ingredients they were going to use in the afternoon, while Hua Yu Bai went out with Zhou Min again and bought a double-headed mop and a light bulb. Originally, Zhou Min thought it would be okay to wait for the New Year to clean, but she couldn’t refuse her son’s kindness, in addition, Hua Yu Bai wanted to invite them to B City together during the New Year, so she did not persist anymore.
After coming back from buying the mop, Zhou Min exchanged with Xiang Cheng Tian, and Zhou Min helped Xiang Yu, then Xiang Cheng Tian went to wipe the floor with Hua Yu Bai and changed the light bulb, after all that work, the whole morning basically passed by, while the smell of food wafted out from the kitchen. Xiang Yu steamed the eight crabs they bought, and as soon as the orange-red crab shells were peeled off, they were full of crab roe. The delicious smell darted into their nose, making the fingers of the people present move.
Xiang Cheng Tian and Hua Yu Bai peeled one each and handed it out unison, but one was handed to Xiang Yu and the other one for Zhou Min, “Dad, here eat / Aunt, here eat.”
If it was before, whether it was Xiang Yu or Zhou Min, the crabs peeled by the younger generation should certainly be eaten by the younger generation, but this time they did not refuse, they took it with a smile, then handed their own share to the two children.
Xiang Cheng Tian and Hua Yu Bai peeled another one again, but this time it was for each other. They seem to do this often, doing things for each other, so when the two people took the crabs that the other peeled, they didn’t look too surprised, instead they naturally smiled and took them to eat. In fact, this simple action of exchanging was very straightforward, but in the eyes of Xiang Yu and Zhou Min, it reminded them a lot of beautiful memories from the past.
“Looking at you like this, I remember what happened more than 20 years ago.” Zhou Min smiled and said to Hua Yu Bai: “At that time, your uncle and I were just poor students, the monthly food expenses we had were very limited, but we both loved to eat. I remember that at the entrance of the university they were selling grilled squid, and at that time, a stick only cost one yuan so we bought a bunch, then your uncle only ate the tentacles himself, and left the larger piece of the squid to me. At that time, my way of thinking was very simple, I thought that I must work hard after graduation, so that no matter what I want to eat, I can buy double the portion.”
“Then I guess that you quickly succeeded in that.”
“No.” Xiang Yu said, “I registered with your aunt as soon as we graduated, and moved out of the house to rent an apartment together, as a result, we got pregnant with Cheng Tian in the next month.”
“We had just graduated, our salary was not high, and we had to rent a house, so if we were to also raise a child, you can imagine how great the pressure was. There were a few times that I thought of getting rid of this kid, but I couldn’t bear it, so you were born. Seeing how big you are now, and thinking how difficult you were to feed when you were a child, you would also get sick every other day.” Zhou Min said, “You’ve grown so big in the blink of an eye.”
“You’ll cry if I don’t grow up, right? When I was a child, when didn’t you visit the hospital.” Xiang Cheng Tian said, “But Mom, don’t worry, there will be many people that will take care of me in the future, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
