Le Yun was frightened by firecrackers when she was a child and had no interest in fireworks. Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, did not waste the money. Zhou Chunmei and Zhou Tianming bought several boxes, and they were all gone in less than two minutes.
To welcome the Spring Festival, it is also a time to burn incense and go to the auspicious directions to pray for blessings. The two children of the Le family, one big and one small, and the unborn child, burn incense and go to the auspicious directions to pray for blessings, and come back to catch up on their sleep.
On the first day of the New Year, every household gets up early, and children in rural areas can go from house to house to pay New Year greetings, but children in cities do not have that fun.
Yan Xing was celebrating the Chinese New Year at his grandpa's house. He had breakfast on the first morning of the Lunar New Year and then went to his great-grandma's house. Yan Ming was reluctant to leave the child, but still happily sent the child to He's house to pay his respects to the elders.
When Yan Xing went to He's house, Jia Ling breathed a sigh of relief.
There is an old saying in rural areas: "On the first day of the lunar month, sons are the second son of the lunar new year." On the first day of the lunar month, sons pay New Year greetings to their parents, and on the second day of the lunar month, sons-in-law are called. Therefore, on the first day of the lunar month, except for children and sons who pay New Year greetings to their parents, they do not go to other people's homes.
.
Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, was scheduled to go back to her parents' home to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the new year. In the first day of the new year, she didn't go anywhere. In the morning, Le Yun called the elders of the Chao family, her tutors, teachers, teachers, teachers, and teachers one by one to say New Year's greetings. Then she happily took out her tools.
More than a thousand herbal dumplings were made in total. After cooling, they were packaged with a vacuum packer, and some were only sealed in bags.
In the blink of an eye, it was the second day of junior high school. Since she had to go to Zhou's house in the middle of the morning, Le Yun moved the things she used to make dumplings to the second floor. Generally, after the second day of junior high school, people in the village also moved around each other. People came and went at home, and she did not make medicinal meals.
For convenience, move the position to the second floor.
One room on the second floor is used as a grain store, and the other three rooms are used as guest rooms. The hall and kitchen are both empty.
Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, also agreed that the girl should use the upstairs as her private space. He helped her move things, carry firewood and a wood-burning stove upstairs, and put bamboo sieves, cutting boards, pots and other tools on the second floor.
I was busy until mid-morning, packing up, bringing New Year's greetings, and the whole family went to Zhou's house.
Grandma Zhou only had one son and one daughter. On the second day of the new year, she waited for the girl and her new uncle to return to her parents' home. Brother Zhou welcomed his brother-in-law and his family and set off thousands of firecrackers at the door.
In the first year after a girl gets married, she goes home to pay New Year greetings. According to custom, she prepares gifts such as wine, meat, and steamed buns, puts them in baskets, and carries them to the Zhou family in one load.
Brother Zhou received the gift from his brother-in-law's family, took it to his mother-in-law's house and asked her to arrange the return gift. Then he came back and chatted with his brother-in-law over the fire in the main room, while Sister-in-law Zhou and Zhou Chunmei served tea, fruits and dried fruits.
Zhou Tianming said hello to his uncle and aunt before sneaking back into the next room to play with his mobile phone.
After drinking a cup of sweet tea, Grandma Zhou asked: "Lele, why does your dad use crutches?"
"Well, Grandma Zhou, that's what happened. I put something on my dad's leg. I was afraid that it would fall off if I used force, so I asked my dad to use crutches." Le Yun opened her eyes and told lies.
, reasonable and well-founded.
"That's good, I almost thought I slipped and hit something." Grandma Zhou was originally worried that Yueqing fell and aggravated the leg injury. She was very worried. She heard that it was because the medicine was applied and she couldn't exert force temporarily, and the hanging
My heart is relieved again.
Brother Zhou was a little worried and his heart was at peace. If Yueqing falls again during the Chinese New Year, someone might gossip about his sister Kefu behind his back. Even if the Le family father and daughter don't care, it will still sound embarrassing.
After chatting for a while, Grandma Zhou smiled and asked Xiao Lele to help her dig konjac. Le Yun happily jumped three feet high, jumped up, happily ran to pick up the hoe, slipped into the corner of the back garden of Zhou's house, rolled up her sleeves and worked
One person dug for half an hour, looking through every corner, and dug out about ten konjacs as big as soup bowls.
After comparison, only the four largest ones were left, and the others were lined up in the soil and marked. After carrying the konjac, they returned to Zhou's house. After washing their hands, they slipped to Grandma Zhou's side and smiled like stars.
Grandma Zhou didn't let Xiao Lele help scrape and wash the konjac. The Le family grinded so much konjac tofu and sent back a lot for them to eat. Her family dug out the konjac and put it in Yuanxiao grinding.
At eleven o'clock, Village Chief Zhou and his two sons went to Brother Zhou's house. Village Chief Zhou and Brother Zhou's father were cousins, and Brother Zhou and Xiaohai from the Zhou family were also cousins. Therefore, Zhou Qiufeng married into the Le family and returned to Yueqing for the first year.
When the parents' family pays New Year's greetings, the close relatives of the Zhou family will of course come to see the new brother-in-law. This is a custom that has never changed.
Grandma Zhou Man did not go to Brother Zhou's house to see the new uncle of the Zhou family because her son-in-law and grandchildren went home to pay New Year greetings and she was at home with her daughter-in-law and grandchildren.
Less than ten minutes after we sat down at Village Chief Zhou’s house, Zhang Poluo and his wife also arrived.
Grandma Zhou is a girl from the Zhang family. Grandma Zhou’s father and Zhang Poluo’s grandfather are cousins. Zhang Poluo and Brother Zhou are cousins. Even though they are thousands of miles away from each other, they are still cousins. Zhang Poluo came to pay New Year greetings to my aunt.
It is also a matter of course.
Less than twenty minutes after Zhang Poluo sat down, Zhang Ke, his wife Sister-in-law Wu, and their daughter Zhang Jing also came. Zhang Ke’s father and Zhang Poluo’s father are cousins. Naturally, Zhang Ke and Brother Zhou are also cousins. Zhang Ke
It is also a courtesy for the family to come to pay New Year greetings to Grandma Zhou.
By the way, Brother Zhou and Zhang Ke are also cousins who are three thousand miles apart. So, Zhou Chunmei and Zhang Jing are cousins who are three thousand miles away from each other in the previous generation. They are cousins who are six thousand miles away from each other. Because they are so
They are related by blood, and the two have been close friends since childhood.
University is a city of plastic surgery. After a period of tempering, boys and girls who enter university will change their temperament drastically. This is the case for Zhou Chunmei and Zhang Jing.
After Zhou Chunmei, a girl from the countryside, went to college, she never knew how to dress up. When she dressed up, no one could tell whether she was a city girl or a country girl. Zhang Jing was Xiaojiabiyu in the county town, but when she went to college in the capital, she immediately experienced another big change, with straight hair.
The hair was permed and curled, dyed burgundy, very light burgundy, and the manicure on the fingernails was also light red.
Sister-in-law Wu also painted on her eyebrows and put on lipstick, and the mother and daughter looked very presentable. Zhang Jing wore a winter skirt and carried a small silver handbag.
Seeing Zhang Ke's family of three, Village Chief Zhou had a tigerish face and glared unkindly at the mother and daughter who were dressed in a coquettish way. He pretended not to see them. Then he looked at the girl from Yueqing, his eyebrows full of satisfaction.
It's better to be Lele Yazai. Even after returning from the capital, he is still the clean and honest child. Like Zhang Jing, she is so glamorous that it makes people feel uncomfortable just looking at her.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Regarding Zhang Ke’s arrival, Brother Zhou felt a little confused. In the past, Zhang Ke would also come to pay his mother a New Year’s greeting, usually on the sixth or seventh day of the Lunar New Year after visiting relatives.
Come, come on the second day of the Lunar New Year this year, tsk tsk, Sima Zhao’s heart is known to everyone!
He didn't reveal Sister-in-law Wu's little thoughts, so he accepted Zhang Keti's gift and invited the Zhang family of three to sit down.
When Zhang Jing saw Le Yun, she stiffened for a moment. Her eyes fell on Le Yun's clothes, trying to find the brand logo of the clothes. When she saw Le Yun looking at her, she hurriedly averted her eyes.
Zhang Ke took his wife and daughter to the early guests and said hello to his aunt and uncle. Zhang Jing also said hello to the seniors for the New Year.
Village Chief Zhou responded calmly with a straight face. He didn't even ask Zhang Jing whether she was used to studying at school or not.
Sister-in-law Wu also said hello to Village Chief Zhou, and received a "hmm" in response. Her face was a little embarrassed. However, when she saw Yue Qing and Zhou Qiufeng being guests, she shamelessly pushed her way over to sit next to the new uncle and grandma.
"Daughter-in-law Zhang Ke, this is where the new uncle's companions sit. Please sit on the other side." Zhou Dahai is Qiufeng's first cousin. He and Brother Zhou are the companions. Seeing Sister-in-law Wu sit down, you are welcome.
If you chase people away, there will be no guests coming to grab the guest seat. It's so shameless.
Zhang Ke walked to another table and saw his wife running to sit with the guest seat. His face turned red and he did not dare to rush his wife and took Zhang Jing to sit with Zhang Poluo.
Zhang Jing and Zhou Chunmei were sitting on a bench, comparing nail colors and discussing which one looked better.
"Old cousin, I know this is a place for guests, so I just chatted with my new aunt and grandma. I didn't even go to have a drink when Qiu Feng got married. Today I came to see my new aunt and my new uncle. They are indeed a match made in heaven."
Sister-in-law Wu pretended not to see Village Chief Zhou glaring at her and refused to leave.
Her tone was clearly sarcastic, sarcastic that men with disabilities and women cannot have children, and that people with disabilities are gathering together, which is the wrong way to mix the pot with the wrong stove.
Dad Le was so angry that he clenched his fists, and Zhou Qiufeng looked at each other coldly. It was New Year's Day, and she didn't want to argue with the mad dog. Especially today, the newlywed daughter went back to her parents' home to pay New Year's greetings. She couldn't make trouble. She remembered this and waited until today to settle the score.
.
Zhang Poluo frowned and looked at Zhang Ke, only angry at his cowardice.
Sister-in-law Wu was obviously here to trouble people. Brother Zhou's face was so angry that he was about to have an attack when he heard a crisp sound like a thrush: "Aunt Wu is right, I also think that my dad and
My new mom is a perfect match."
The Le family girl took over the conversation. Sister-in-law Wu looked over and met Le Yun's eyes. Her eyes were as bright as lamps and her dark eyes were as dark as two black whirlpools, which seemed to be able to draw people into them. She was a little afraid to look directly at her.
Hehe smiled and responded: "Isn't it a match made in heaven?"
"That's right, I have never felt that Aunt Wu's words are as reasonable as they are today. If my father and my Aunt Feng are not a match made in heaven, there are really not many people in the world who are a match made in heaven."
Looking directly at Sister-in-law Wu, Le Yun smiled instead of being angry, with crooked smile: "Who in the village doesn't know that Aunt Feng can do all the work in the fields, can write and do calculations, and manages the household well. She is a capable woman.
He is a talented man. When he was young, the man who wanted to marry him almost broke the threshold of Grandma Zhou's house. When he was young, I heard that my father was also a famous handsome guy in eight villages. There were many girls from other families chasing after my father, and they would use all kinds of tricks.
After all, my dad just didn’t take notice of it.
My father and Aunt Feng both had an unsatisfactory relationship. They wasted their youth. Neither the man nor the woman complained about anything but others and kept striving for self-improvement. Then at this age, they finally broke through the constraints and rumors and got married together. Isn't this what people say?
A marriage made in heaven? As the old people say, what's yours is yours. Don't force it if it's not yours. The marriage between my dad and Aunt Feng was not unilaterally forced by any one party. It was done in compliance with God's will and was truly valued.
It is truly a match made in heaven, and it will surely be blessed by heaven’s ancestors, relatives, friends and elders, and we will have a happy marriage and grow old together. Aunt Wu, don’t you think so?”
"Well said!" Xiao Lele snatched the words. Village Chief Zhou was a little worried at first, but then Xiao Yazi said a lot of truth. The old man was overjoyed and was the first to clapped his hands in praise.
Grandma Zhou's originally downcast face turned gloomy in an instant. Little Lele had a sharp mouth. She not only praised Qiufeng, but also indirectly belittled Zhang Ke's wife. Sister-in-law Wu was one of the girls who was interested in Yueqing back then. Xiaole
Le has a delicate heart, knows everything, and reveals Sister-in-law Wu's scars so reasonably.
Sister-in-law Zhao pursed her lips and smiled sullenly. The girl from the Le family really had a sharp mouth, sharper than a butcher's knife. She could poke people without drawing blood, but she could poke holes in people's hearts.
Sister-in-law Wu's words made the Zhou family, mother and son, and the new aunt and uncle change their faces. They were originally smiling because of their great victory. When they heard Le Yun praising Zhou Qiufeng, they secretly sneered. No matter how capable they are, they are just a bird that cannot lay eggs.
Hen, what's there to brag about?
When he heard that Yue Qing was chased by a girl when he was young, his face changed, especially when he heard the theory about not forcing things, his face became stiff. When he saw Grandma Zhou and Village Chief Zhou, who knew the inside story, looked at him with smiles on their faces, for a moment
I felt it was worse than eating a fly, so I bite the bullet and agreed: "That's the truth. Marriage is only happy if both parties agree. If you continue to talk, I won't be shameless and occupy the guest seat."
As if there was a needle under her butt, Sister-in-law Wu stood up and walked away. She jumped to another table and sat at the same table with Zhang Ke and her daughter Zhou Chunmei.
Aunt Zhou gave tea to Zhang Ke’s cousins and added some new fruits and dried fruits and melon seeds.
Le Yun choked Zhang Jing's mother and ran away. She did not take advantage of the victory and gave up. This is Aunt Feng's natal home, her father's mother-in-law's home, and her brother's grandmother's home. If you don't look at the face of the statue, look at the Buddha's face.
I also want to give Zhang Jing's mother some face, and I can't step on her too hard.
Of course, it also meant that the other party knew each other. If Zhang Jing and her daughter didn't shed tears without seeing the coffin and kept coming to mess with her, she wouldn't mind letting them have a taste of what it means to die without committing suicide.
After Yueqing's leg was disabled, he became honest and easy to bully. However, his girl was not an economical lamp, and Zhou Qiufeng was not a soft persimmon either. Zhou Qiufeng had not said anything yet, and Sister-in-law Wu had not received any favors from Leyun, and she did not dare to do it again.
He went to laugh at Yue Qing and Zhou Qiufeng, and only chatted nonsense with Sister-in-law Zhao about family affairs.
Zhou Chunmei and Zhang Jing chatted for a while. Seeing that their father was busy with lunch, they became bolder. They approached their grandma from the next table and asked curiously: "Le Yun, my aunt said that your master's wife gave you a gift."
Is a jade bracelet worth hundreds of thousands of dollars real?"
Zhou Qiufeng's eyelids drooped slightly. Her niece never forgets to trick her, saying "listen to my aunt" like this. If Lele has a bad relationship with her, and if anything is spread out one day, Lele will treat her as a snitch or a scheming behind her.
Fortunately, Lele has a crystal-like heart, which is clear and transparent, and is not so easily deceived.
Grandma Zhou suddenly felt unhappy. What does her granddaughter mean?
Zhang Jing was also eagerly waiting to hear the answer. Chunmei met her on the New Year's Day and told her that Leyun had a bracelet worth hundreds of thousands, but she didn't really believe it.
"Yes." Le Yun nodded innocently: "My wife not only gave me an jade bracelet as a meeting gift, but also helped me buy a lot of clothes. In addition to clothes for daily wear, there are also dresses for various banquets, and
According to the price of accessories, the total cost of clothes is more than 100,000. The suit I am wearing was bought by my wife. It seems to be from a certain brand in F country, and it is completely handmade."
