[20 Dec 2015] Pre-celebrate 冬至 @阿公阿婆家

Yeah baba agreed to accompany us to go to 阿公阿婆家 after almost 7 months! The last time baba went to 阿公阿婆家was in last May when we attended 琴阿姨's wedding.
22 Dec is winter solstice 冬至. Traditionally family will get together to have 汤圆 which represents reunion 团圆. Since 22 Dec falls on Tuesday, mummy and other 阿姨 decided to go back to 阿公阿婆家 2 days before the actual day to pre-celebrate with 阿公阿婆. 大姨姨丈 not able to join as they needed to go to KL to arrange some ritual ceremonies for 姨丈's late mum who passed away 3 months ago.
We took the train to JB then 2姨姨丈 drove us to 阿公阿婆家. We had yummy yummy meals and 汤圆 which prepared by 阿婆. 阿公阿婆and everyone were so happy to you as everyone dotes on you a lot and it's very rare for us to go to 阿公阿婆家 unless there is someone who can drive us back since baba doesn't really want to spend time and money to borrow car from 爷爷 and drive us instead. We went to the old coffeeshop with 阿婆and 阿姨 in the afternoon then it was almost the time to go to JB to take a train back to Singapore again.
2姨姨丈 dropped us at JB train station then we headed to catch the train which departed at 7pm.
Today we also went to 爷爷奶奶家 as 姑姑wanted to pre-celebrate 姐姐's birthday. When we reached there 奶奶 insisted to ask baba mama to have dinner first then she wanted to look after you. 姑姑approached you and insisted to carry you although you struggled and didn't want to. Then she carried you tightly and talked to you in very fierce way so that you don't struggle and move. Mummy dashed to living room from kitchen and saw that you were trembling and looked so scared. At that moment mummy felt so angry as you did not do anything wrong but 姑姑 treated you in that way. Mummy didn't bother and dashed over to carry you over then brought you to have a shower instead. Oh...mummy wondered how could 姑姑 do that to you...mummy was so fed up but didn't show the unhappiness too much or baba will be unhappy again. I hope 姑姑 won't do that again or mummy will definitely have some argument with her! Nobody has the rights to treat you in that way since you have done nothing wrong!
