After sitting at Zhao's house for about an hour, Song Hongguo left with her two children. Zhao Yulian didn't move. Sun Shuhong walked with her. After leaving the door, she smiled and said, "Your second aunt is just a tough talker." You're soft-hearted, don't take it to heart, just because she cares about Xiao Yuan, you also know that she is satisfied with you."

Song Hongguo said, "I understand..."

Don’t you understand, what is awkward?She is her second aunt.

When the two separated at the intersection, Song Hongguo took two green dumplings from the basket and stuffed them into her, "I steamed them last night. They were stuffed with red beans. They tasted okay."

"Hey, why are you so embarrassed?" Sun Shuhong said she didn't want anything at first, but when she heard that she wanted to give it to her children, she continued half-heartedly, "Then I'd like to thank her cousin Man Yuan."

When a mother is involved in everything involving her children, she will become soft and unprincipled. She knows that it is not appropriate to take other people's food, but thinking about the pitiful look of her child's greedy mouth, she still has short hands.

Song Hongguo would not look down on others because of this. In fact, she simply felt that she had been with her for such a long time, and it would not be justified if she did not express her gratitude. The food she gave her was the most affordable and most popular. When she went to Zhao's house before, those people saw her The gifts he brought were obviously very enthusiastic.

This is not snobbery, it's just human nature.

When she got home, Song Hongguo looked at the things returned in the basket. There was also a can, five eggs, and half of the green dumplings were left. She had just given two to Sun Shuhong, so now there were only two left. As for the longevity cake, It was a whole package and was difficult to split, so the other party kept them all, but he didn't take advantage of her much and returned some dried sweet potatoes.

Seeing this, Ling Zhi asked in confusion, "Why didn't Third Grandpa accept them all?"

Song Hongguo gave them some knowledge about the local customs, "In this kind of favor exchange, the host family usually keeps half and returns half, unless the host family is too careless, or the things the guests bring are too thin, oh, for weddings and weddings With the gift, the host will usually accept all the gifts, record them, and put the things on display for others to see..."

Ling Zhi understood, and asked again, "What about the money my aunt gave us to meet us as a gift?"

Song Hongguo thought for a moment, "Let me buy something to repay the favor when I get the chance. Returning now would seem too alienating, as if we don't want to get along with them."

Ling Zhi nodded. He looked worried at a young age and had no sense of responsibility. He asked his brother for the money and handed it to Song Hongguo, "You can keep it."

Song Hongguo didn't ask for it, "It's for you two, just take it."

"But……"

"No buts. In the future, during the New Year and holidays, you can just keep the money your elders give you. I won't ask for it. In normal times, I will also give you pocket money. As for the money, do you save it or buy things? , I won’t even ask.”

Hearing this, Ling Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then said with emotion, "Thank you..."

Ling Yuan was more direct. He rushed over and hugged her neck, smiling and saying, "Mom is so kind."

Song Hongguo teased him, "What's so good about Mom?"

Ling Yuan blinked his big beautiful eyes and said obediently, "You trust me and my brother, many adults will not let their children have money, for fear that they will spend it randomly. For children's new year's money, adults always look for it from various sources. You made various excuses to go back, saying you were keeping it for them, but they never returned it, yet you are so trusting to me and my brother, you are the best mother in the world."

Song Hongguo was coaxed to smile brightly by him, and kissed her several times before going to make lunch.

I went out to visit relatives and had to go home for dinner. This was also the first time.

At this time, a dozen members of Zhao Baoqing's family were also eating. At the dinner table, Song Hongguo was inevitably mentioned. The two sisters-in-law surrounded Sun Shuhong, curiously asking questions about each other.

After hearing the birthday gift Song Hongguo brought, they couldn't help but exclaimed "My mother".

Their family was not separated. Zhao Dejiang celebrated his birthday, so he naturally went to celebrate his birthday, but it was just a small jar of sweet potato wine and ten duck eggs. The sweet potato wine was home-brewed, and the duck eggs were from the village. It didn't cost much. It didn't cost much food, so it was a good gift. But who would have thought that Song Hongguo's gift would be so thick.

"It's really worth it..."

Sister-in-law Zhao couldn't help sighing, she felt sorry for Song Hong's pulp, eggs, longevity cake, and canned fruit. How much would it cost?

Sister-in-law Zhao's eyes flashed, "I'm a doctor, and I get paid every month. I don't miss that much. Besides, after all, it's the first time I come to the door. I'm not polite, and my face doesn't look good."

"Then this is too thick and can't withstand the tossing?" Sister-in-law Zhao still looked like she couldn't accept it, and asked Sun Shuhong, "How did the third grandpa's family repay the gift?"

Sun Shuhong said, "How else can I pay it back? The third grandma is not that ungrateful, so naturally she keeps half and pays back the other half."

Sister-in-law Zhao wanted to say that it would be a big loss, but she swallowed her words again. After all, the person who passed away the birthday was her father-in-law's second uncle, and she could not turn her elbows outward.

Zhao Baoqing was not there at the time. When he heard this, he asked, "What did your second aunt say?"

Sun Shuhong did not dare to add any fuel to the fire, and restored the situation at that time, and finally said, "I think the second aunt accepted Hong Guo as her niece in her heart, but she refused to admit it with her mouth. She was very good to the two children adopted by Hong Guo. I also prepared money for the meeting for the two of them, which is only fifty cents each."

"How much?" Sister-in-law Zhao shouted in surprise.

Sister-in-law Zhao also asked in disbelief, "Fifty cents? Or fifty cents for one person?"

Sun Shuhong nodded, she was also frightened at that time.

Zhao Zhenhua smiled and said, "The second aunt is really interesting. Isn't this just a soft-hearted and hard-spoken person? She obviously has a cousin in her heart, but she has to put on a cold face, which makes her look awkward."

Zhao Baoqing glared at him, "What do you know? Your second aunt still can't get over that hurdle..." After saying this, he paused and then sighed, "Your aunt cheated her a lot at that time. Change it." Personally, I’m afraid I’ll have a hard time thinking about it.”

At that time, Zhao Deshan planned to keep his eldest daughter, Zhao Yuzhi, to recruit a son-in-law at home to continue his legacy. Zhao Yuzhi also agreed at first. After all, whoever recruits a son-in-law will inherit the things in the family. Who knows, Zhao Yuzhi quietly She had a date outside, who was a worker in an aluminum factory. One day, she suddenly brought him back and told her that they were in a relationship. If she didn't get married, she would die.

These words were not considered a threat. After all, in that conservative era, it was very difficult for a woman to remarry after making a relationship and then regretting it. Therefore, the news at that time was no less than a shock to the Zhao family, especially to Zhao Yulian and Zhao Yulan. Because Zhao Yuzhi could not recruit any more wives, it would be their turn.

And Zhao Yulan has someone she likes, and if she asks her to marry him, she will force her to break up with him. She won't say anything against it, but will not eat or drink all day long, and shed tears. What else can Zhao Deshan do?I couldn't let my youngest daughter die, so I could only beg my second daughter.

Sensible people always suffer. In the end, Zhao Yulian couldn't resist her old father's plea and agreed, but who among the promising men would be willing to be a son-in-law?So I searched around and found a man who had fled from other places and was a little lame. He was dull by nature and couldn't do heavy work. Zhao Yulian's appearance and character were not bad, so how could he be willing to accept it?
