The first destination is my grandma’s house at the mouth of the Hongcheng River.
Although the snow that had fallen a few days ago had melted, Zhou Yan still did not dare to take a shortcut on the mountain road, so he honestly took a circle and took the asphalt road.
I rushed to my grandma's house just in time to catch up with my aunt who came out to take out the trash.
"Hey, Zhou Yan is here?!"
As she said that, her aunt shouted into the yard: "Mom, your nephew is here with his wife!"
Then, grandma, grandpa, little sister-in-law, cousins, and neighbors who came to visit us all came out to welcome us.
"It's very cold outside, why are you all out here?"
Zhou Yan waved to his cousin Li Jinling, "Lingling, come here to move things..."
"These are the thoughts of Ruoshu and I, don't be too little..."
Anxin Mall produces its own milk powder, dry goods, and quick-frozen seafood.
"Little girl," Zhou Yan smiled, "your share was sent to me yesterday, so I won't give it to you. These are the braised pork and braised goose we made last night. Just cut them up and put them on the plate. There are also braised pork elbows.
, heat this up..."
After that, it’s fresh food, leg meat, pork belly, and a big basket of vegetables that Father Zhou prepared early.
"Oh, Zhou Yan, why should your dad be busy in such a cold weather..." Xiao Jinzi felt a little distressed and held Qin Ruoshu's hand, "Nephew, hurry back to the house..."
After moving the things, Zhou Yan helped his grandma into the house.
As soon as I walked in, my grandpa had already found a variety of snacks and put them on the table with a smile.
Zhou Yan couldn't refuse, so he winked at Qin Ruoshu.
"Grandpa, we just came out after breakfast. We are not hungry now!"
"There aren't many things!" The aunt picked up the melon seeds with a smile and put them in front of her. "Idle time is idle."
"By the way, auntie, I see your car is parked outside. I'm preparing some New Year's goods for your family. Can you take it back by yourself later?"
"It will save you trouble!" My aunt rolled her eyes, "Your uncle just renovated the house at home this year. You haven't seen it yet, right? Your dad led the team..."
Zhou Yan looked back at Qin Ruoshu, and then at his aunt: "Your nephew's wife designed it, do you think it can be done?"
"It's quite adequate..." My aunt said with a proud face, "In Dabieye, it doesn't cost much, and the neighbors are envious of it. Oh, by the way, your uncle said that your boats have already started to be built, and they will be built next autumn.
It works..."
"My uncle is a supervisor." Zhou Yan naturally knew what his aunt was worried about, safety. "The ship is more than 40,000 tons, which is basically the largest of its kind. It also does not approach the typhoon and high wave area, so everything is stable."
"Don't let him be too idle. If he just gets paid and doesn't work, there's no such thing as a good thing..."
"Oh, nephew," grandma pointed to a pile of gift boxes on the side, "two days ago, Zhao Yongquan from the county sent a bunch of things, drank a few mouthfuls of water and left..."
"You can just keep the things Zhao Yongquan sent over," Zhou Yan smiled helplessly, "I will return the favor from him..."
"And..." Zhou Yan winked at Qin Ruoshu, and classmate Xiao Qin understood it, took out a big red envelope from his pocket, and stuffed it into his grandma's hand.
"Grandma, your nephew's harvest is good this year, don't be too little..."
"You kid..."
Before my grandma started to push to the limit, she was interrupted by her aunt: "Your nephew's company will open the 7 o'clock stall this fall, so just keep it!"
"Grandma, grandpa, little sister, aunt, we still have to go to aunt and second aunt's house. Time is a bit tight. Let's talk after the New Year?"
After chatting for a while, Zhou Yan took Qin Ruoshu to the next house.
According to the order, he should go to his aunt's house first, but his second aunt's house was a little far away, and his aunt's and aunt's houses were not far away. Zhou Yan had no choice but to go to his second aunt's house, which was very close to Hongcheng County.
When I arrived at the door of my second aunt's house, I honked the horn. Before I could even get out of the car, my cousin Feng Bei had already jumped out of the yard with her slippers on.
"Brother, sister-in-law, are you here?"
After a while, the second aunt, second uncle, cousin and Xu Wenjing also walked out of the yard.
"Second aunt, my mother asked me to bring some fresh vegetables over..."
"It's Chinese New Year," the second aunt felt a little sorry for her nephew, "I asked you to run so far..."
The second uncle glanced at the things in the carriage: "Nephew, are you from..."
"If you come from grandma's house, you have to go to your aunt's house..." Zhou Yan smiled, put on his gloves, took out a large basket of vegetables from the carriage, and handed it to his cousin.
With Xu Wenjing here, Zhou Yan's parents and second aunt's house prepared a little more vegetables and fruits.
After moving their things, Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu were pulled into the courtyard.
"When you enter the house, it's the same as your aunt's house. Your dad leads the people to do the work."
As the New Year approaches, it’s the same everywhere you go. Tea is served first when you enter the house, followed by melon seeds, fruits and snacks. The topic of conversation, in addition to the harvest, is the New Year’s goods. Of course, you can also talk about the children...
"Nephew, after the first lunar month, I plan to go to the capital. By then..." The second aunt looked at Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu with a smile, "But I have to trouble you two. The little old lady is lost, and I have to trouble you to help find her.
…”
"That's not the case," Zhou Yan said happily, "If you feel too bored, you can take my mother and Ruoshu's mother over there with you..."
Feng Bei asked with a smile: "What about my third uncle?"
"Your third uncle's cooking skills are second only to your brother-in-law," the second uncle said happily. "Whether your third uncle is at home or not, it doesn't matter much."
"Can cooking skills be inherited? My brother and I are at a disadvantage..." Feng Bei rolled her eyes at her second uncle, "Dad, you didn't let my brother and I inherit the talent for cooking..."
"By the way..." Zhou Yan turned around with a smile and looked at his cousin Feng Jun, who was chatting with his wife. "Brother, let me give you a suggestion. My eldest nephew's household registration should be in the capital.
.”
"Why?" My cousin was puzzled, "We both plan to go back to Dongyang. The child's household registration..."
"Listen to Zhou Yan first..." The second uncle obviously had more thoughts than singing.
"Do you know why I bought so many houses in the capital, and they are not very good houses?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Why?" Both cousin and Xu Wenjing's curiosity was aroused.
"The two small villas to the west of the National People's Congress belong to the school district of the High School Affiliated to the National People's Congress," Zhou Yan chuckled, "The other side of Shichahai is within the school district of the No. 4 Middle School. The one I live in now..."
My cousin's eyes widened: "Aren't you such a thief?"
"However, I bought the house too early, and my children probably won't be able to use it." Zhou Yan smiled helplessly, "Brother, just to be prepared, you pick a house, and I will transfer it to your name later, and assign the children's household registration first.
…”
"But..." My cousin frowned, "Wen Jing and I both plan to stay in Dongyang..."
"Brother, why can't you turn your head around?" Zhou Yan was a little speechless. "In Dongyang, we will go to elementary school and junior high school. High school will be transferred there. Besides, in Dongyang, we want to go to elementary school and junior high school. That's not a word.
Something about?"
"That's fine, I just have to trouble you again..."
"We are brothers who grew up naked together..."
After chatting for a while, looking at the time approaching half past ten, Zhou Yan stood up and left.
"Nephew, after traveling so far, you still need to eat!"
"I don't dare. I had lunch here at noon. It's hard to explain when I arrive at my aunt's house." Zhou Yan smiled bitterly. "You also know that my uncle is so proud that he had lunch here and patted his butt at his house.
Just left, I guess I won’t think about stability this year..."
"Then have lunch here and go to his house for dinner..."
"I have to go back to visit the grave in the afternoon. After all, I got married, and the ancestors are waiting to send money and flowers..."
"Don't stop me," said the second uncle, who was easy to talk to. "It's not just about eating. My nephew also has some work matters. Don't delay me..."
After leaving the second aunt's house, the two of them got in the car and had to rush to the eldest aunt's house.
"Honey, are all our houses in the school district?" As soon as she fastened her seat belt, Qin Ruoshu couldn't wait to turn around and cast out the doubts in her heart.
"When I bought a house, I was looking for a room in the school district. Unexpectedly, just a few years later, I wouldn't be able to use it anymore..."
