Chapter 2152
This afternoon, Su Xinghui finished his work outside and returned home. Lu Xiaoya was already at home, holding Niuniu and playing with him.
Su Xinghui changed his clothes, washed his face, and went to the living room to take Niuniu from Lu Xiaoya's hands and played with him. No matter how tired or busy he was outside every day, as long as he returned home, he would play with his son. This was the best way to enhance the parent-child relationship.
Niuniu liked Su Xinghui very much, because Su Xinghui would throw him into the air and lie down for him to ride a big horse. Of course, this required Lu Xiaoya to protect him on the side, so as soon as Su Xinghui came back to play with him, he would giggle non-stop, very happy.
Today, Su Xinghui lay down again for him to ride a big horse, and Lu Xiaoya was protecting him on the side. She asked with heartache, "Xinghui, are you tired? If you are too tired, take a rest for a while, don't crawl on the ground."
The living room of the Su family was covered with mats specially for children. Niuniu was not afraid of crawling on the ground every day, so it didn't matter if Su Xinghui crawled on the mats. It wouldn't be cold or dirty.
Su Xinghui smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, Niuniu is so light, it's very easy for me to let him ride a big horse."
The father and son were playing, and suddenly, Niuniu called out "Daddy". This "Daddy" was called very softly and a bit vaguely. If Su Xinghui's hearing hadn't been good, he probably wouldn't have heard it.
Su Xinghui stopped crawling immediately. He turned his head and looked at his son in surprise and joy. He said to Lu Xiaoya, "Xiaoya, did you hear it? He called me Daddy."
Lu Xiaoya of course heard it too. She smiled and said, "He did call you Daddy, but he called me Mommy much earlier than he called you Daddy."
A few days ago, Niuniu called Lu Xiaoya Mommy, and now he could call it very smoothly. It was only today that he called Su Xinghui Daddy, which was indeed later than calling Mommy.
But this was also normal. Lu Xiaoya's work was not as busy as Su Xinghui's. She spent much more time with her son every day than Su Xinghui. It was not strange that Niuniu called her first.
Su Xinghui couldn't help but laugh. In such matters, Lu Xiaoya was still like a little child, wanting to compare who won. He smiled and said, "That's of course, you are his mother, and you spend much more time with him than I do."
Lu Xiaoya said proudly, "That's of course, but our Niuniu is smart, only nine months old, and he can call Daddy and Mommy."
Now Niuniu was already over nine months old. It was indeed quite early for him to be able to call Daddy and Mommy now. Many children couldn't call Daddy and Mommy until they were one or two years old.
Of course, this should also be attributed to Lu Xiaoya. As long as she returned home, she would tirelessly teach her son to speak. For a child, having a good language environment was also very important, which was very good for cultivating language ability.
And their family's nanny, Liu Yujiao, was also very conscientious. Because she had been a nanny for several years and had taken care of many children, she could rarely speak Mandarin. She also talked to Niuniu every day, which made Niuniu able to call Daddy and Mommy so early.
A child calling Daddy and Mommy seemed to be a small matter, but for parents, that was their happiest thing. Especially for Su Xinghui, he had lived for more than 40 years in his previous life and had never had children. In this life, he finally had his own son. After such a long wait, he finally heard his son call him Daddy, and his excited mood was indescribable.
Su Xinghui hugged Niuniu from his back and said, "Niuniu, come, call Daddy again."
Niuniu giggled for a while first, and then called "Daddy" again. This time, his "Daddy" was much clearer.
Su Xinghui was ecstatic. He picked up Niuniu, threw him into the air, and caught him again, and so on. Lu Xiaoya was terrified watching from the side, but she also knew that Su Xinghui had a sense of proportion, so she didn't stop him, just helped protect him from the side.
Su Xinghui threw Niuniu several times, then hugged Niuniu in his arms, and used his beard to prick his face. Niuniu was pricked by him and giggled.
Lu Xiaoya looked at Su Xinghui so happy from the side, and a gratified smile also appeared on her face.
Su Xinghui said to Lu Xiaoya, "Xiaoya, remember to write down the time he called Daddy today in the notebook, don't forget this."
Lu Xiaoya said, "Don't worry, I won't forget."
Lu Xiaoya got a large notebook, specially used to record Niuniu's growth experience. She recorded Niuniu's daily height and weight changes and physical condition on it. Important events like when Niuniu called Mommy for the first time and when he called Daddy for the first time, of course, would not be missed.
For a child, such a growth experience would be the most beautiful memory of his life after he grew up.
Su Xinghui said, "Xiaoya, why don't we take the child back to Shangjun County together this weekend, so that his grandparents can also be happy."
Lu Xiaoya nodded and said, "Okay, we haven't been back to Shangjun County for more than three months, so we have to go back and see, otherwise, it will be the flood season in a while, and you might not be able to leave."
In fact, Su Xinghui wanted to go back to Shangjun for this reason. It was already May, and it had entered the flood season. Of course, it had not yet entered the main flood season of the Changjiang basin, so Su Xinghui could still go home once, but if it were next month, he would not be able to leave.
Next month, the Changjiang basin would begin to have torrential rain, and Su Xinghui, the Chongjin County Director, would be the general commander of flood fighting and disaster relief in Chongjin County. He could not leave Chongjin County for a single day. At most, he would go to the city to hold a deployment meeting, and he could not stay overnight in the city, let alone go back to Shangjun County, which was out of the province.
If he left the province during the flood fighting and disaster relief period, that would be a serious incident, and he could be dismissed on the spot.
Even if it weren't for this, Su Xinghui could not leave Chongjin County during the flood fighting and disaster relief period. He could not let go of the people of Chongjin County.
So now he must go back to Shangjun County once, let his parents see his child, and wait for the torrential rain to start, he would not be able to go home for about four or five months.
At that time, he could not go back to Shangjun, and Su Wenjun could not come to Chongjin County, because he was now the Dean of Shangjun County People's Hospital, and he also had to command the flood fighting and disaster relief work of the People's Hospital.
After the two discussed it, on a Friday afternoon two days later, Su Xinghui drove his car and took his wife and child back to Shangjun County.
He called home in advance, and Guo Suhua called Su Xingyun's family back. She and her daughter prepared a lot of dishes, and when Su Xinghui's family arrived home, they had already prepared a table of dishes, waiting for them.
As soon as they arrived home, Guo Suhua was the first to pick up Niuniu, happily calling "good grandson". Niuniu was also very face-giving, didn't struggle at all, and even smiled at his grandmother.
Su Wenjun asked, "Isn't your work very busy? Why do you have time to go home today?"
Su Xinghui smiled and said, "No matter how busy I am, I have to go home. When the flood season starts, I guess I won't have time to go home. Now let you two see your grandson well."
Su Wenjun nodded. He had lived by the Changjiang for a lifetime, and of course, he knew the seriousness of the flood season. He said to Su Xinghui, "Xinghui, your status now is not ordinary. You are now a county director, the general commander of flood fighting and disaster relief in your Chongjin County, and you bear the safety of the lives and property of more than 400,000 people on your shoulders. You must not take it lightly."
Su Xinghui nodded and said, "I know, Dad. After the flood season starts, I might not be able to come back for several months, so I will come back this time. By the way, Dad, Mom, Niuniu could call Daddy and Mommy a few days ago."
Guo Suhua said happily, "Really? Niuniu, call Daddy and Mommy for Grandma to hear."
Niuniu was not stage-frightened at all. He called Daddy and Mommy crisply. Although he might not know what Daddy and Mommy meant now, this did not prevent him from clearly calling out these two titles.
Niuniu's voice brought joy to the whole family, and everyone laughed happily.
Su Wenjun smiled and said, "Okay, you came back from so far, you must be hungry, let's eat quickly." ===== CHAPTER 2154 =====
