Chapter 215: Trivial matters at the end of the year, Lao Wang scolds Zhang Yu
Time flies so fast, and the end of the year is here in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Yu rode a bicycle back to the countryside by himself.
Give the family some meat stamps, some cloth stamps, and some gas stamps.
I had a reunion dinner with my family in advance.
This year's Chinese New Year, Zhang Yu still plans to spend it in the city. After all, Mengyi is pregnant with a child and her mobility is inconvenient.
The roads in the village are full of potholes and difficult to walk on, so I worry about inflating the tire.
Zhang’s parents and Zhang’s mother also feel that Zhang Yu’s decision is the right one, and that everything is about the children.
Zhang Yu took another bottle of good wine and went to the old man's place.
After a comfortable drink with the old man, the old man took out some wild animals from the cellar, as well as the divided boar legs, and stuffed them all to Zhang Yu.
Let Zhang Yu take it back to the city and cook it for Mengyi to supplement her nutrition.
Zhang Yu carried his things down the mountain and found a place to put them.
Turn around and find Dad Zhang.
"Dad!"
"When having New Year's Eve dinner on New Year's Eve, don't forget to invite the old man from the mountain down, so that everyone can have a great time together."
Dad Zhang nodded and said he understood.
"Si'er, when you return to the city, tell your father-in-law and mother-in-law that after the Chinese New Year, your mother and I will go to the city to see Mengyi and your father-in-law's family."
"Hey! I know dad, I will definitely convey it to you."
"Have you and your mother decided when to go?"
"Well, after thinking about it, we decided to set the sixth day of the lunar month. After watching you, the village will have to arrange tasks."
"Okay, you can just stay overnight in the city, stay in my wedding room, and come back the next day."
"Okay, let's talk about it then."
……
Zhang Yu said goodbye to his family and rode back to the city carrying the wild animals given by the old man.
The street, which was originally deserted because of the cold weather, is now bustling with activity.
Every household, with their children, walks on the street, with the joy of welcoming the Spring Festival on their faces.
I saw that the door of the supply and marketing cooperative was surrounded by children of all sizes.
The children who came out of the house held a box of firecrackers in their hands, looking like they were treasures.
Similarly, Zhang Yu's weird bicycle riding also aroused the curiosity of others.
There are many bicycles coming and going on the street, but Zhang Yu’s is the only one who is unique.
Coupled with the pheasants, hares and many other wild animals hanging on the handlebars, such a rich house will make these city dwellers salivate.
In the envious eyes of passers-by, Zhang Yu returned home all the way.
Lao Yuan is holding Mengxue, making love.
Zhang Yu quickly parked the car and asked Mengxue to carry the wild things hanging on the car to the kitchen.
Zhang Yu helped Lao Yuan post couplets.
He held up the pair and took a look at it. Huo, you are indeed the principal. The writing of this pair is much better than Yan Bugui.
"Dad, did you write these words yourself?"
"Ah! Yes, I wrote it myself. How do you like it? You can give me an evaluation."
How can Zhang Yu dare to comment? As far as his level of literature is concerned, it would be great if he could read it fluently.
"Hahaha, forget it then. My literary level is not good enough to carry your shoes, so how can I dare to judge you?"
Lao Yuan felt that Zhang Yu praised him a little too highly.
He quickly waved his hands and said modestly.
"Okay, man, stop complimenting me! You pushed me up so high with just a few words, how do you want me to come down!"
"By the way, are your parents in good health?"
"Everything is fine. It's just that as I get older, I can't do some things as well as I can."
"Hey! This is true. This elderly person cannot compare with the physical strength and spirit of the young."
"Back then, I was someone who refused to admit defeat. I traveled all over the world to participate in various events."
"I can't do it anymore, especially after I've been idle at home for so long. I feel that my physical and mental abilities are not as good as before. I feel particularly decadent."
"Your parents are okay. They have things to do at home. Did the village issue some tasks?"
"Physically, he is much better than me."
Since the school was closed, Lao Yuan felt that he was aging extremely quickly and felt that he had nothing to do all day long.
During this period of time, the weather was freezing and it was impossible to go fishing. The only way to relieve boredom was put on hold. It would be strange if Lao Yuan was not depressed.
"Dad, if you really feel that you have nothing to do, why don't you do this? You can set up a school at home and teach some children around the same age as Mengxue."
"In this way, you can not only use your spare energy, but also help your children learn new knowledge, and you can relieve boredom at the same time."
Lao Yuan thinks this is a good idea, but he also thinks it’s unreliable.
After all, home is where the family lives. If this were to be turned into a school, the peaceful life at home would be shattered.
"Hey! What are you two talking about? Does it take a long time to post a couplet?"
Lao Wang had a towel wrapped around his head, holding a broom in one hand and a dustpan in the other, looking like an old rural lady.
"Mom, it will be posted soon."
The two men immediately shut up and posted everything that needed to be posted.
Zhang Yu ran up to Lao Wang in a hurry and was about to take over what Lao Wang was doing.
"Wait a moment, don't move yet."
"Mom, what's wrong? I'll help you with your work!"
"There's no rush."
"We, you, have you gone to your master's place?"
Zhang Yu shook his head.
"Not yet, I plan to go again tomorrow."
"Why are you so clear? Go now and help your master put up the couplets and clean up."
"What time is this? It's still tomorrow. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. What are you going to do? Are you going to eat?"
"Hurry up, I've prepared all your things for you. Hurry and carry them there before someone pokes your spine."
Zhang Yu hurriedly got those things and rode to the master's house.
Lao Wang is really worried about this family, he has to take care of everything, just for fear that if he fails to take care of anything, people will gossip.
Zhang Yu came to the compound where the master was. The uncle at the door saw Zhang Yu coming and grinned with joy.
"Boy, come to see your master again!"
"Yes, uncle, is my master at home?"
Zhang Yu put the car away, took out a box of Peony cigarettes, and lit one for the uncle.
The uncle took a sip and nodded with satisfaction.
"Not bad, not bad, Peony cigarettes are still good to smoke."
"Okay, go find your master quickly. Your master is busy cleaning up."
"Hey! Uncle, please rest, I'll go in first."
Zhang Yu carried his things into the courtyard and came to the door of the master's house.
Master Ma happened to come out with a basin to get some water, and saw Zhang Yu coming over.
"Master, I see you are here."
"Come just come, why do you bring so many things!"
"Hey, then I can't come empty-handed!"
"No, my grandpa in the country has hunted some game. I will bring you some for you and my wife to try."
Master Ma quickly put the basin aside and pulled Zhang Yu into the house.
I saw my wife stepping on her feet and cleaning the cobwebs in the corner.
Zhang Yu quickly put down what he was holding.
"Teacher, let me help you."
After saying that, he reached out and took the broom from his wife’s hand.
"Oh! Xiaoyu, when did you come?"
"Hey, I just came here too, let me help you clean."
The teacher's wife was very happy when she saw this good son helping her with work as soon as he arrived.
