Rebirth: I Have a Spiritual Spring

Chapter 416 No red envelopes, the second day of junior high school

Zhang Boyan had no choice but to resign himself to setting the table. Mother Zhang over there hurried over to take a look, and immediately went over to bring the food.

The first thing served was a mandarin duck pot. The soup base was spicy on one side and not spicy on the other. The hot pot ingredients included beef, mutton, beef offal, haggis, meatballs, various vegetables, and seafood. The big lobster was steamed by Zhang Mu into a big plate. Big crabs are made into steamed rice flour, which is the staple food. There is also roast duck, which is a famous snack here. However, Zhang Wanwan is not interested in chickens and ducks, so she did not move, staring straight at the hot pots. material.

Father Zhang saw her greedy look and said quickly: "You all sit down, and we will start eating quickly."

With that said, Zhang's father boiled some meatballs for Zhang Wanwan and some beef. When they were cooked, he put them into her bowl. "Eat quickly, don't starve."

"Thank you, Dad." Zhang Wanwan smiled sweetly and took the chopsticks directly.

Zhang Baiyan waited for a while and saw that Zhang's father ignored him at all. He sniffed and resigned himself to ironing things. Then he got some food for Qin Wenjun and whispered: "My dad is biased and doesn't care about us. Follow me whatever you want to eat." Say, I’ll iron it for you.”

"It doesn't matter to me, I've almost eaten just now, please eat more." Qin Wenjun muttered in a low voice.

Father Zhang's ears were sharp. Hearing this, he glared at Zhang Baiyan, "It's true that I don't like you. I still like Wenjun very much. Come on, girl, you can eat too."

After Zhang's father finished speaking, he directly put some beef and mutton into Qin Wenjun's bowl, then got some for Zhang's mother, and then started eating by himself.

Zhang Boyan was so bored that he didn't dare to say anything anymore.

Seeing how pitiful he was, Mother Zhang gave him a pair of chopsticks and said angrily: "Your dad is getting better and better, so don't be like him. By the way, have your Uncle Qin, Aunt Qin, and the others finished eating? We could have called them over just now." We’re going to eat together, but we can’t finish the food anyway.”

Qin Wenjun hurriedly said: "No, Aunt Zhang, my parents also cooked a lot of food. There was a lot left when we left. I guess the three of them couldn't finish it."

"By the way, I just got some pickled vegetables and dried bamboo shoots from over there. The one with stewed bones is super fragrant. Mom can cook it when you have time." Zhang Baiyan said as if he was offering a treasure.

Mother Zhang laughed, "Okay! I'll try it another day. By the way, did your Aunt Qin say anything else?"

When the two of them heard Zhang's mother's words, they understood what she meant. Qin Wenjun was a little embarrassed and buried his head in eating. Zhang Baiyan was very happy and said immediately: "Aunt Qin said that we would get married on a good day, and she also said this They don’t understand the etiquette. They will follow our family’s arrangements when the time comes. Mom, you can decide the time. Let us know in advance so that we can prepare early.”

"Hey! This is a good thing. Since we all follow our family's arrangements, it will be easy to handle. Let's check with the previous gentleman to check the date. Taking advantage of the fact that everyone is relatively free during the New Year, prepare things first. You and Wenjun will also I can find time to take wedding photos and get the certificate by the way. Anyway, your dad can drive now, so it doesn’t matter for a day or two," Zhang’s mother said excitedly. If the government wasn’t working now, she would have given the two of them the first chance. Go get your certificate.

Zhang Boyan looked at Father Zhang inquiringly. Father Zhang didn't let him down anymore, but said in deep thought: "Then just listen to your mother, you guys get everything done first, and we'll prepare the rest. I've thought about it." , let’s handle your wedding well this time and make it lively. Over there at the new house There are plenty of open spaces, so it’s no problem to invite a few tables. When the time comes, even your mother’s and I’s former colleagues and friends will be invited. Look who else you want to invite. They’ve all been invited. I owed a lot of favors to others, and I have to pay them back. , we won’t accept red envelopes or anything like that, it’s not bad anyway.”

Father Zhang would not have been able to say such courageous words in the past, but things are different now. Their family has gotten better and they don’t lack anything now. Father Zhang naturally wants to feel proud and feel proud, and by the way, he would like to express his gratitude to those who have helped them. people.

Mother Zhang thought for a while and nodded: "Your father is right. When I became so ill, many people helped me. At that time, they didn't expect us to pay back the money. After all, our family's situation is like that. Thinking about it now, I really owe a lot of favors, and I won't get much back from the red envelope, so I might as well forget it. Of course, this is from your father and I, and we don't care what you two do with it." Zhang Baiyan didn't say anything immediately. He looked at Qin Wenjun, "What do you think?"

Qin Wenjun smiled shyly and said: "I can do it. I'm still young anyway. People didn't give out many red envelopes for weddings before. It doesn't matter if you don't accept them. My parents should accept them."

The conditions of the Qin family are far inferior to those of the Zhang family. It would be unrealistic to marry a daughter without receiving a red envelope.

Zhang's mother was considerate, "It's right for your parents to receive red envelopes. Our family is in a special situation and we can't mix together."

Qin Wenjun was grateful for Zhang's mother's consideration and felt more and more lucky that he had found a good family.

The four people here were discussing the topic of marriage, while Zhang Wanwan was eating enthusiastically alone and didn't even pay attention to what they were talking about.

After Zhang's mother called her twice, she raised her head in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Mother Zhang was speechless and said it again, "I told you to accompany your brother and Wenjun to the county town or back to the city in the next two days to choose a good wedding photography studio. When the time comes, they will take wedding photos. If they go back to the city If you want to, take a look at gold and other things. Things in the county are always not as fashionable as those in the city. You can also buy some things in the city that are not available here and have a good time. This year, the construction will probably start two days later. "

"Oh." Zhang Wanwan responded nonchalantly. She wasn't busy anyway and could go anywhere.

The family discussed the matter and stayed awake until early in the morning before going back to rest.

The next day, Zhang's mother got up early to say goodbye and went to the end of the village to discuss the marriage of her two children with Qin's mother. She came back at almost nine o'clock. She saw that the children were all sleeping and did not shout. They went straight to the kitchen to cook.

The second day of the Lunar New Year is another day for the Zhang family to visit relatives and friends.

Zhang's mother originally wanted to take Qin Wenjun with her, but Qin's mother said that her two children were getting married and they had to go back to their hometown. Qin Wenjun's birth date was still in the old house, so Zhang's mother had no choice but to give up this idea.

The family packed up and arrived at Li Yongfu's house. Lu Cui was still cooking for them. Li Yongshou and the others were also there, talking about how grand the Zhang family's new house was.

Li Meili was filled with envy when she heard that Zhang Wanwan's family just arrived. She immediately pulled Zhang's mother and asked, "Lan, how much did your family spend to build this house?"

Zhang's mother was not very sure. After hearing this, she looked at Zhang Wanwan and said, "You have to ask this girl or Lao Zhang for details."
