May 18th is an auspicious day, and everything will go well.
After breakfast, Li Hui and Yu Zhao drove to Yujiatun to pick up someone.
Today's housewarming ceremony was very simple and low-key. It was just the two families having a meal together, and no one was disturbed.
At the beginning of the year, Yu Huai's family came to pick him up.
We first go to the house where vegetables are grown in winter, and then we go to Zhao's house.
The house is very neat, and the chicken coop is also very big. The ten chickens are a lot bigger than when they first came here. The only drawback is that the houses are not big, and the kang can only sleep four adults. The kang has a hole.
One is on the kang.
When everyone entered the main house, it was immediately difficult to turn around. Yu Wan knew that his parents had something to say, so he and Li Yue took all the children to play on the kang in the west room. Li Heng and Yan Yixin were both in the school.
Dinner was at noon, so neither brother took time off.
Mrs. Wang put the kang table and took out the tea set given by Cheng Xue to make tea. Yu Zhao and Li Hui sat next to Yu Huai, one on the left and one on the right. Yu Yan sat on the kang without taking a seat.
Although he is already sixteen, he is still not allowed to serve on this occasion
Ms. Liu held Cheng Xue's hand and couldn't stop smiling.
"Xue Niang, Hui Zi, thank you so much. If you hadn't helped the young couple organize their lives, they would still have to live together."
Cheng Xue received the looks Wang kept sending her, so she thought about it and spoke in a roundabout way.
"Aunt, when will you and uncle come over? Now that the spring plowing is over, come here to stay for a few days and change the place. His house is enough to live here, so I can bring my cousin with me."
Mrs. Liu is a smart person. When she heard what her nephew-in-law said, she immediately understood.
Yu Huai took out a purse from his sleeve and put it on the table. He could tell by the sound that it was money.
"Dad..."
As soon as Yu Zhao made a sound, his father shook his head and interrupted.
"There are no outsiders in the house, so what can we say? I think these two children have already told you and me that I want to separate the family. The second child has an idea and wants to go south to fight for his own future. The third child is conservative and won't
I love reading, but I just want to work hard at home and farm. As for the boss, we are all relieved that he will be taken care of by you two.
In fact, I had thought about the idea of dividing the family as early as last year when he came to work. But at that time, nothing was certain and he couldn't talk about it. But it's different now. He has established himself in the forest farm, has a house, and has a house in Wanghe Village.
There are indeed many conveniences compared to Yujiatun. He likes it here, and his parents will naturally support him."
"Dad, there is no room for change at all? If I had known that my coming here would mean separation of the family, then I would not have come at all. If I go south with my second son, I can still have someone to take care of me."
"What are you talking about!" Yu Huai frowned, his face full of displeasure, "Separating the family is not a break! Yujiatun is the 'homeland' I have struggled for most of my life. How can I give up everything to come to you? Just like now, I
Would you be happy if you were asked to abandon this place and return to your hometown to farm?"
"I..." Yu Zhao was speechless.
Li Hui understood what his uncle meant and nodded to help persuade:
"Yu Zhao, my uncle is right. Yujiatun is his roots and it is hard to leave his hometown. When your hero goes to live in the county in the future, will you abandon this place and follow him to the county?"
Yu Zhao wanted to say "I will give up", but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them out.
So, there is nothing more to say, the situation has been decided.
Mrs. Wang said "Alas" heavily, smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"Forget it, the child's father, let's just listen to him and his mother. From now on, we will show more filial piety during the new year and festivals. When you have a break in the forest farm, we will go home and take a look. Filial piety is one aspect, and obedience cannot be ignored."<
/p>
"Yes, the eldest daughter-in-law must be open-minded at the critical moment." Yu Huaile grinned from ear to ear and was in a happy mood.
Mrs. Liu picked up the purse and handed it to her daughter-in-law, saying:
"You have suffered a loss due to the separation of the family. You can't get the land or things. I will discuss with your father and convert it into cash for you. These thirty taels are just part of it. I will replenish it for you after I finish shopping for groceries this winter. This is
Read the family separation document your father wrote for yourselves."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Cheng Xue and said:
"Xue Niang, if there is land in the village, help them clear it, even if it is wasteland. Your family has oxen and plow sticks, so it can save labor in clearing wasteland and farming. So my aunt shamelessly entrusted the couple to you and Huizi.
”
"My aunt's words are too unorthodox. My cousin and the others are here. To be honest, it's me and Huizi who are borrowing help. Our whole family has to leave for the provincial examination and the general examination. We have to count on the two of them to help us with the house and land here.
”
"That's right. Without your father-in-law's help, my family wouldn't be where we are today."
Yu Huai put down his tea cup and once again mentioned his help in the past. Cheng Xue quickly urged Wang to go to the fields to cook and change the subject.
She was impressed by Yu Huai's ability to be "grateful". She could lead whatever he said, and as soon as she started, she wouldn't stop talking.
The dishes and meat in the outhouse are all ready, just light the fire and grill.
Mrs. Wang brought Yu Wan to the outhouse to help. Although there were only two stoves, the four of them felt crowded together. However, they were only a family of three, and such a house was just enough.
Mrs. Liu helped her daughter-in-law light the fire, and Ms. Wang finally couldn't help but whisper:
"Mom, please stay here with Yu Wan for a few more days this time. Let Yingjie have sex with you, otherwise I'm afraid the child won't be able to bear it if we don't see each other for a long time."
Yu Yingjie is the only child of the third generation of the Yu family, and he is also a male. His parents, grandparents, uncle, and sister-in-law dote on him at home. Suddenly they are left as a family of three, and it will definitely be difficult for the child to adapt.
Mrs. Wang added firewood to the stove with a smile, nodded and said:
"Don't worry, he won't come to you less. Your father can't bear to leave his eldest grandson. We won't go back tonight. We asked your fifth aunt to help take care of the house. Your father said that he would help you clean up the house and see where it is needed.
Check the place where you put it."
Mrs. Wang said "Hmm" loudly and worked very hard while cooking.
At the beginning of noon, the school dismissed, the meals were prepared, and a table was set up in each room in the east and west.
Ten dishes, six meat and four vegetarian, which means perfect.
Yu Huai, Li Hui and others are in the east room, while Liu, Cheng Xue and others are in the west room. The dishes are all the same, and the furniture in the two rooms is also the same.
As the hostess of this family, Mrs. Wang picked up the water glass, looked at everyone gratefully, and said:
"First of all, I want to thank my mother for taking care of me and my children for so many years, and for consulting me on everything. Other daughters-in-law would never be like me. Next, I want to thank my sister-in-law. If it hadn't been for my brother's hard work to help me, I wouldn't be here today.
Our family cannot live like this..."
Originally, she would have said that this paragraph must have been drafted in advance, so she was grateful for everything, including the builder who built the house.
After she finished speaking, everyone finished their drinks in one gulp. Wang's pick of vegetables was put into Liu's bowl, and everyone picked up their chopsticks...
