Framed at the beginning: Female educated youth forced to marry disabled military officer
Chapter 69 New Year’s Eve
"Xiu Xiu, Xiu Xiu, now that all the money in the family has been wasted, are you still thinking about your Xiu Xiu? Show off your big head, Xiu Xiu!" Father Xiao held up the soles of his shoes and wanted to wave to his head. Why did you give birth to such a stupid son?
Xiao's mother quickly stopped him, "Old man, things are already like this. It's useless for you to hit Xiang Xi again. If he's damaged, you'll have to spend money to treat him."
"That's right, that's right." Xiao Xiangxi continued.
The shoe sole in Xiao's father's hand hit him head-on, and Xiao ran away with his head in his arms.
"Oh, Dad, why are you really hitting me?"
"You are the one who is being beaten. You are an unfilial descendant and you have lost all my money." Father Xiao was so angry that his chest heaved up and down.
Xiao's mother was afraid that he would be really angry, so she quickly grabbed Xiao's father and comforted her, "His dad, we gave the money to Xiao Meili and his wife. Now that the fourth child's affairs are like this, we have to pay this money back." Bar.".
"You're right, let's see if she returns to her parents' home in the second year of junior high school. If not, I will go to the county town to find her during the Chinese New Year!" Father Xiao said, "She is also a member of the Xiao family after all, how could she cheat her nephew? Trick your own brother!".
The deep anger among adults does not affect the joy of the children during the New Year.
When Xiao Qingqing and Xiao Zhengjin saw Meng Xiaoman entering, they surrounded him.
Meng Xiaoman saw that several people were obedient and washed their hands, and stretched out their clean little hands for her to check. After Meng Xiaoman finished reading, everyone was given a White Rabbit toffee. Xiao Qingqing added another one, "Qingqing , keep it for yourself, it’s a reward for you.”
"Thank you, third aunt!"
"Thank you, third aunt!"
"You're welcome, let's go play."
The elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law have already made rice. Although it is New Year's Eve dinner, there are not many dishes. One fried bacon with dried bamboo shoots, one fried radish with cabbage, one fried mushroom with sliced meat, and one fried vermicelli with dried beans.
Although there are not many varieties, the portions are large, and each dish comes in a large bowl.
Meng Xiaoman also brought vegetables, which was a large bowl of boiled fish. In addition to fish, it also contains kelp, bean sprouts, tofu, dried wood ear mushrooms and other side dishes.
"Sister-in-law, can you bring me a clean basin? I want to divide this dish into two portions." Five dishes, not a good quantity.
"Okay, just wait a minute." Liu Zhi'er went to the kitchen to get a basin.
Xiao Xiangbei looked at the big pot of red and fragrant things, and took a sip of saliva, "Brothers and sisters, what is this? It looks like peppers, but it smells so good."
"This is boiled fish." Meng Xiaoman said.
"Boiled fish? This is the first time I've heard of it. Can you let me try it later?" He was really afraid that Meng Xiaoman would say "Let's each eat what we have." He felt that she It can be done.
"Okay." She didn't want to get angry or quarrel with anyone during the Chinese New Year.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Xiao Xiangbei rubbed his hands and said, "It looks delicious."
When everyone sat down, Meng Xiaoman took out another basket of white steamed buns from the basket and gave two to Xiao Xiangdong. He handed them to Xiao's father and Xiao's mother, and she gave one to each of the children, "Steamed buns." Not much, everyone has one, you have to eat and take it for yourself." He said and put the basket on the table.
"What's so great about white steamed buns? Who wants to eat them?" Xiao Xi said.
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Xiangxi stretched out his hand and took one, "I'll eat that one. The one you don't want to eat, can you give it to me?". He said looking at Xiao Xixi expectantly.
In the county town, he could occasionally eat white-flour steamed buns, but when he returned home, he would vomit from eating sorghum, corn, and sweet potatoes every day.
Seeing his greedy look, Xiao Xixi rolled her eyes and said, "You can eat whatever you want. It's not my thing. Why are you asking me?"
Xiao Xiangxi quickly took another one, "Third brother, third sister-in-law, Xixi said she would give it to me, so I will eat two."
"Eat, eat, eat, you can still eat after this!" Father Xiao was about to hit him when he found a white-flour steamed bun in his hand. He stopped in mid-air and took a hard bite of the steamed bun.
"Dad, these steamed buns are right, how do you like them? Isn't it delicious?" Xiao Xiangxi asked, and he diligently gave him a chopstick of boiled fish, "Dad, if you eat it with this, it will taste better.".
Father Xiao glanced at him, took it, and ate it, "Just wait for me!".
Xiao Xiangxi shrank his neck, stopped talking, and kept eating. He was afraid he would have a hard time in the future.
Seeing that Meng Xiaoman and the two were so lively today, Xiao's mother didn't look for trouble and ate her food with peace of mind. I thought to myself how great it would be if someone from the third family could be as sensible as today. But when she saw the oil in the vegetable basin, she couldn't help but twitching in the corners of her eyes. She just wished she could live a better life again.
As for Zhou Xinghua, she never said a word when there was an advantage to be taken, and she picked up vegetables very quickly in her hands.
"Third Aunt, the food you cook is so delicious. I wish you could come to my house for dinner every day." Xiao Zhengjin hissed from the spicy food, his lips turned red, and he kept picking up the food.
"Eat your food. Your third aunt and the others live in an old house. How can they come to eat at home every day." Zhou Xinghua gave him a chopstick of fish.
"Third aunt, can we go to your house to pay you New Year's greetings tomorrow?" Xiao Qingqing asked.
"Of course. Third aunt will give you lucky money then."
"I'm not asking for lucky money." Xiao Qingqing hurriedly explained in a low voice.
Meng Xiaoman smiled at her and said, "I know you're not doing it for money, but you have to give money to children during the Chinese New Year, so that the coming year will be safe and smooth."
Xiao Qingqing nodded.
When he heard that there was lucky money, Xiao Zhengyin also raised his head and said, "Do I have some too? Third aunt, I will give you New Year greetings and kowtow to you.".
Meng Xiaoman was amused by him, "Yes, yes.".
"Then if I kowtow more, can you give me more New Year's money? I want to save it to buy candies." Xiao Zhengyin asked again.
Meng Xiaoman shook his head, "Each person only has one piece of lucky money.".
"Okay then." Xiao Zhengyin curled his lips and said.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Xinghua couldn't help but tugged his ear, "Why are you so obsessed with money? Ah, you also know how to kowtow in exchange for money. Then don't forget to kowtow to your grandparents more tomorrow."
When the meal was almost done, Xiao's mother cooked dumplings again, and each person ate a few dumplings before the New Year's Eve dinner was finished.
After eating, Meng Xiaoman and Xiao Xiangdong returned to their old home.
Xiao Xiangdong burned the kang, while Meng Xiaoman made a cup of hawthorn water, took off her cotton shoes, sat on the kang, and sighed: "It's better to be comfortable at home! By the way, do you want to stay up late at night?".
"If you are sleepy, just sleep normally and I will keep watch."
As he said this, he suddenly took out a red envelope from his pocket and said, "New Year's money, this is for you.".
