Chen Miao has the thinking of modern people and is willing to pay New Year's greetings before the end of the year. Besides, paying New Year's greetings to the elders of the Shen family in the village does not count as New Year's greetings.
She is not the only one who does this, the rest of the Shen family will give something to the elderly.
Especially this year, people's lives have become more stable in their hearts. Those who have money will buy some delicious food like Chen Miao. Those who have no money will steam steamed buns and bean buns and send them to the elderly. Although there are not many, this is the junior generation
of mind.
The two children are sweet-tongued and talkative. How can the elderly not like them? Besides, the twin boys are more popular with the elderly. After they all came over, it was time to make lunch.
The village is filled with fragrance, and today is already the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month. The Chinese New Year will be here in just a few days.
I have not given any New Year gifts to my three brothers since they got married, and I have no preparations for this year.
In fact, this is not right in the countryside. My mother-in-law is an elder, but she did confinement in the twelfth lunar month of the first year, and did not think of it in the second year. It feels wrong to go again this year.
She didn't send New Year greetings to her brothers, nor did her nephews send New Year greetings to her. There's nothing wrong with that.
In the afternoon, Chen Dongsheng took several children to get off the net.
Chen Miao also asked the children to play with them. They are sensible, but they are still two-year-old children. They also need playmates and their childhood cannot be erased.
Just after making lunch, Zhao Xiaoyun came in with a cage, "Hurry up. My mother-in-law put brown sugar in the bean filling for the freshly made bean buns. This year's bean buns are delicious."
Chen Dou also came in, and she also brought bean bags.
"Looks like I won't have to steam this year."
The bean buns from both stores are the same. The bean fillings are very special and delicious.
In the evening, Chen Tong brought two carp. "Third sister, mother said, the carp jumps over the dragon's gate."
Chen Miao nodded, "Yes. It's a good sign."
Luo Bingyuan didn't know how to describe the meal at Thirty's, and it even had a lion's head.
The chef used to love this dish. He couldn't cook anything else but this dish was the best.
After taking a bite, I felt that it tasted even better than the one made by the chef.
The two children are also very satisfied with the fresh food.
Their family is not short of food and water, so they don’t eat much meat.
"Mom, the fish is delicious, I want to eat shrimp." Yun Xin said with a smile.
"In a few days, let's drive to the beach to have a look."
She suddenly had a feeling that she wanted to go to the beach, or to be precise, she wanted to go to the pier.
Chen Miao is a person who goes with his feelings. Anyway, it’s okay during the first lunar month, so it’s good to go out and have a look.
Luo Bingyuan glanced at Chen Miao and said to himself that whatever comes to mind is what comes to mind. In the future, the two children cannot be so free-thinking like their mother.
In the evening, I made dumplings with beef and green onions, and cabbage and pork. It turned out that the cabbage and pork dumplings were the most popular.
On the 30th, everyone is making dumplings, and those who don’t grow wheat will make some noodles. This year is the most festive and happiest year for everyone in more than ten years.
They don't understand what's going on outside, they just know that the little Japs have surrendered and no one is harming them.
This year Chen He Bao dumplings also put a lot of meat in them, and they taste really delicious.
Liu Laifu was very silent while eating. Chen He knew what he was thinking and had no objection to what he wanted to do.
All the money at home is in his own hands. If he wants to send money to his mother, he has to go through him.
From the bottom of my heart, I really don’t want to. The three children in the family do as much as the adults. In addition to Sanmei’s three acres of land, the family has also opened three pieces of land.
Working hard just to have enough food and clothing.
This year, things finally got better. The family has food and money, although it's not much, but it's earned through hard work as a family.
If he wants to be filial to himself, he won't stop him. Too much will definitely not work.
Now I still live in a house in the village. My eldest son and my eldest daughter are planning to get married, and they both need money.
Liu Laifu was also in a state of anxiety. He knew how his parents treated his family. His father was gone, and only his mother was left. He had not seen her for almost a year.
How could mother and son have an overnight feud? They still miss their own mother.
I thought about going there during the twelfth lunar month, but seeing my wife and three children sleeping two or three hours a day, I just wanted to make more tofu to sell.
He finally endured it. Tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year and he wants to see his mother and take the children to see his grandma.
After eating the dumplings, we sat around and drank dumpling soup.
"Xiaohe, let's go back and see mother tomorrow."
Chen He didn't raise her head or speak. She didn't want to go back.
None of the three children said anything.
"Xiao He, she is my mother no matter what. Dad is gone. As a son, I have to go and see him during the Chinese New Year."
Chen He nodded, "Okay. You go ahead. The four of us are making tofu at home. Sister-in-law Zhang wants ten pounds of tofu tomorrow and wants to take it home with her the day after tomorrow."
The second day of the Lunar New Year is the day to go back to your parents' home. This is because you want to give something to your parents' home. As a daughter, you still miss your parents' home.
Liu Laifu also knew that several people had made plans with him.
After thinking about it, "Xiaohe, I'll go back and take a look myself. I want to bring some tofu for my mother to try, and some meat for her."
"Whatever you want." After all, he has raised a son. Since he himself has forgotten that he was almost forced to death, there is no need for others to remind him.
They are all people who have sons. They don’t want their children to see them being unfilial.
Although I will never be like my mother-in-law in the future, I still don’t want my children to see my bad side.
At night, the couple lay on the bed and said, "Xiaohe, please bring some money to your mother."
"You have tofu and meat, and you still have to pay? Don't you know how our life is going to be?"
We are getting married in spring, so we can’t get married in this house, right? This is a house in the village just for us to stay in temporarily.
Are you thinking of giving all the money in the family to your mother?"
"Look what you are talking about? Why would I think that? Just bring ten cents to my mother and father."
"Ten cents? We didn't have a cent at the time."
Chen He felt particularly aggrieved when he said this. At that time, he even wanted to die. It was his parents who saved him, and his family allowed his family to stand up again.
Liu Laifu owes her. "She is my mother after all."
"Yes. It's your mother who gave birth to you and raised you."
Liu Laifu sighed, forget it, just bring some tofu back tomorrow, life is like this, if there is no third sister-in-law, there may not be meat at home.
Chen He tried his best to tell himself that he must be in a good mood. Such a good day cannot be ruined.
None of the Liu family deserves to be angry.
After calming down, I went to bed. I haven't been idle since the 20th of the twelfth lunar month until today, but the more tired I am, the more money I really make.
There were loud sounds of firecrackers outside, but we were all too tired and no one moved.
In the middle of the night, Chen He soaked the beans again. There was a lot of tofu in the past two days.
