Rebirth: I Have a Spiritual Spring

Chapter 415: Surrounding the fire, coaxing my daughter

Qin's mother refused to talk to him and went out to take a look again. Seeing that the two of them had arrived at the door, she hurriedly greeted them with a smile, "You are all here. Come in quickly. It's cold. Let's eat first."

Qin Wenjun entered the room and saw a plate of lobsters on the table. The crabs were made into seafood porridge by Qin's mother, as well as a pot of stewed duck soup. Braised pork was something their family had every Chinese New Year, and there were pickles and dried bamboo shoots stewed with big bones. , also in a pot, which is a specialty of their hometown. In addition, it is just some fried vegetables. It is simple and not very rich, but it is already the best New Year's Eve dinner that the Qin family has had in recent years.

Qin Wenjun whispered to Zhang Baiyan: "The food is relatively simple, don't dislike it."

Zhang Baiyan shook his head and reassured: "Our family used to eat casually, but in the past two years, we have become more particular about it. People say that An County's pickled vegetables and dried bamboo shoots are very famous. Today I can finally try the authentic pickled vegetables and dried bamboo shoots."

When the Qin family heard this, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Qin's mother became even more enthusiastic towards Zhang Baiyan. She took the initiative to serve him a bowl of porridge and kept saying, "Eat more. We made a lot of food today, and even our family can't finish it." , If you like to go back, bring more of these pickled vegetables and dried bamboo shoots, there are plenty of them at home.”

They don't have anything else at home, so this kind of thing is enough.

Zhang Boyan was not polite to Qin's mother and agreed immediately.

During the meal, Qin's mother looked at Zhang Baiyan with the eyes of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and inquired: "Boyan, my aunt didn't pay attention before. You said this is your hometown, but I didn't even listen to your parents." I said you have any relatives in your family, is your father an only son? "

Mentioning this matter, Zhang Baiyan's smile faded, and after thinking for a moment he smiled and said: "No, I still have an uncle, but he went to climb a high branch. My grandfather lost contact with the family when he was alive. Later, before his death, my grandfather None of them could forgive him, and all the fields that belonged to him were given to my dad. He has never been back to the village since I can remember, so it’s almost as if we don’t have such a relative in our family.

In addition, my parents moved to the city early so that my sister and I could go to school, and rarely came back. They were not familiar with some of the clan members in the village. Now only my dad still walks around with them, and even my mom is very familiar with them. Have less contact with them, let alone me and my sister, so you look like we have no relatives. "

The Qin family didn't expect that the Zhang family had such a relative, and they were all a little stunned. Qin Wenjun came to his senses and said apologetically: "I'm sorry for asking about such a thing."

Zhang Baiyan shook his head and took a deep breath, "Actually, it's nothing. I haven't felt anything for so many years. Even my mother doesn't care. Even my father is still thinking about them. In fact, in my opinion, there is nothing to worry about. They are the whole family." My uncle is still the director of the Bureau of Land and Resources, why should he worry about it? But we almost couldn’t survive a few years ago without even asking them, so I don’t know what my dad is thinking.”

This is the only thing that Zhang Boyan can't let go of. He only hates Zhang Jianguo's family, not to mention resentment. After all, the two families haven't been in contact with each other for many years, and no one owes anyone anything. It's good to be strangers like this, but Zhang's father occasionally talks about that. The family made him very unhappy. They didn't take us seriously. Why did we keep worrying about them when we were full and had nothing to do? Putting your hot face on someone's cold ass?

The Qin family's eyes widened when they heard the director of the Land and Resources Bureau.

Father Qin, on the other hand, stood up for the Zhang family and cursed angrily: "What about the director of the Bureau of Land and Resources? He doesn't even care about his own father and brothers. It's useless no matter how big an official he is, he has no conscience! Appointed! You can’t go far in your official career!”

Seeing that Qin's father was so angry, Zhang Baiyan persuaded him: "Uncle, I don't regard the other party as a relative of ours anyway. It doesn't matter. Besides, our family's conditions are better now and we don't expect them, so we won't mention it." For the Chinese New Year, say something happy.”

"Yes, yes, say something happy!" Qin's mother immediately smiled and looked at Qin Wenjun and Zhang Baiyan. She was excited and directly mentioned their affairs, "I think it's almost time to talk about your marriage."

When Qin Wenjun heard this, his pretty face turned red, and he wished he could hide immediately.

Zhang Baiyan, on the other hand, was quite shameless and replied cheerfully: "Auntie is right, we should discuss it. You also know the situation of my family. It is quite busy. It is best to choose good days when we are not busy, so that my father Mom has the energy to prepare." "Me too. "I think so." Qin's mother agreed: "You know our family's background well. It's not an exaggeration to say that we are poor. But when we marry our daughter, we always want her to marry in a glamorous way. We also want to make more money. In this case, you tell your mother, you can decide the time, and we will cooperate. "

It is easier for their family to marry a daughter, but it is more troublesome for the Zhang family to get a daughter-in-law. Moreover, they don't know what the etiquette is like here, so they still have to listen to the Zhang family.

When Zhang Baiyan heard this, he immediately nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll tell my mother when I get back. Depending on how things go, I'll probably have to find a husband. I don't know much about it."

After everyone agreed, they gathered together and had a meal happily.

Zhang Baiyan took Qin Wenjun back to his old house at almost seven o'clock. At this time, Zhang's mother had just finished making the food. Zhang Wanwan was squatting in the yard playing with small fireworks, the kind with twenty pieces in a box, which can be lit for a while. Children's stuff.

Zhang Boyan came in and saw her playing like this, and joked: "How old are you, why are you still playing like this?"

Zhang Wanwan turned her head and said, "Are you back? It's so boring to wait for you to eat. To coax me, dad bought me a bag of fireworks. We will continue to set off fireworks after dinner."

Qin Wenjun hurriedly said: "Okay, let's wash our hands, and I'll help in the kitchen."

Zhang Boyan shook his head and went into the living room to talk to Zhang's father: "Dad, my sister is about to get married, why did you buy her that?"

Father Zhang glanced at him arrogantly and said calmly: "I'm happy, she is still my daughter even if she is in her thirties or forties!"

In fact, Zhang's father asked Zhang Wanwan for those kind of fireworks because his family was poor in his early years. He was reluctant to spend the money, so he bought her a box. At that time, Zhang Wanwan could be happy for most of the day. Today, when I was walking around the village, I saw When the child was playing, he suddenly remembered this matter. He couldn't help but went into the canteen and bought a bunch of them.

Zhang Boyan was speechless and sat down.

But Father Zhang ordered: "Go and set up the big round table, your mother is about to serve the food."

Zhang Boyan's eyes widened instantly, "Dad, am I still your biological child? Why is my treatment so different?"

"If you weren't my biological child, I wouldn't care about you!" Father Zhang took a sip of tea and said leisurely.
