Lucky husband

After the Li family got together, the old man Li went to the house of the second master Li next door and asked his family to go to the grave together to visit Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li who had passed away for many years.

Li Mingjin happily invited Li Mingxia, and together with Li Qiusheng, the three of them whispered to each other, asking them if they still remembered the words he taught them last time.

For Li Mingjin and his children, going to the grave is very simple, just kneel and kowtow to the grandpa and grandma whom they have never seen before, and then wait for the adults to burn paper and talk.

The Li family took root in Shanghe Village only in Grandpa Li's generation. There were no other ancestors. The visit to the grave was really fast, and it was over in less than half an hour. The old man Li and the second master Li took their descendants down the mountain to go home.

Usually, the rules in this area are to worship ancestors on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the married women go back to their natal family to visit relatives on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and visit relatives and friends in general on the third day of the Lunar New Year.

But because Chinese New Year is a good time to make money, Bai Xiuhe and the others plan to continue selling rice noodles from the second day of junior high school, so they decided to return to their parents' home early this year.

After lunch and resting for a while, Li Chengzhi and Bai Xiuhe went back to Bai Xiuhe's natal home with the children of Dafang.

My daughter and son-in-law have a new way of earning money, and the Bai family is too happy to be happy. They don't force Bai Xiuhe, who married into the same village, to return to her natal family when she returns. Get ready, just come back and check when it's free.

The two returned to Bai's house with large and small bags of New Year's gifts, and when they left Bai's house, they also carried large and small bags of things in their hands, similar to Jiang Zhiyun's trip back to her mother's house.

On the second day of the new year, the weather was fine.

Since Jiang Zhiyun was still confinement and Li Mingkang was too young to take him out, Li Chengshi took Li Mingjin, father and son to Jiang's house with the things they had prepared for the Yue's family.

It may be because of the ginseng that Li Mingjin picked up before to regulate her body. Jiang Wang was in good health last autumn and winter, and she did not get sick or cough. Xing Langzhong went to see her and suggested that she go out and walk more when the weather is good. She is usually fine. Doing things at home, shutting up in the house all day is not good for your health.

Li Mingjin heard that Mrs. Jiang Wang was busy in the kitchen. When he arrived at Jiang's house, he said hello to his grandfather and uncle and ran to the kitchen to see how his aunt cooked. I have hardly seen my aunt cooking here.

Jiang Qingyan usually doesn't like to run to the kitchen, but today when she heard that her cousin Jin was in the kitchen, she also took the initiative to run to the kitchen, calling for help.

There were two more little radish heads in the stove who couldn't help much. Mrs. Jiang Wang didn't dislike them being in the way, but only found them the most comfortable job in the stove in winter, and asked Li Mingjin to bring his younger sister to burn firewood together.

In the past, when old Jiang Wang was still alive, her health was worse than that of Jiang Wang. Jiang Wang basically did all the work of the Jiang family alone. She can finish it neatly by herself, and she can also find time to chat with Li Mingjin about Jiang Zhiyun's situation.

The men on the other side were also chatting about Jiang Zhiyun and Li Mingkang, mainly Li Chengshi was talking and the others were listening.

After getting along for a few days, Li Chengshi and Li Mingkang gradually became acquainted. When he talked about his youngest son, he had endless things to say, and old man Jiang, Jiang Yuzhi, and Jiang Qiming, who joined later, all listened with gusto.

At the dinner table, Li Chengshi was still talking about Liming Kang: "I changed Kang'er's diaper last night, and he grinned at me. I think he must be smiling at me, knowing that I am his father."

Li Mingjin listened, and dismantled the stage in a serious manner: "Father, my brother hasn't learned how to laugh yet. Mother said that my brother will not laugh until she is confinement. Now my brother is grinning because he is either hungry, peed, or you hurt him." Yes, mother and grandma both said that you are clumsy, father."

After thinking about it, Li Mingjin added: "But dad, don't be sad. In fact, I think it's okay for you to take care of your brother. It's because mother and grandma are too demanding."

"Brother Jin, Daddy won't hurt your brother a long time ago." Li Chengshi smiled awkwardly at his father-in-law, why did he feel that Brother Jin's words of consolation were worse than no consolation.

When it comes to taking care of children, Jiang Yuzhi and Li Chengshi have the same embarrassment: "Haha, it's normal, when I took care of Qi Ming for the first time, I was also clumsy and always made Qi Ming cry. It's good to have experience in this kind of thing. "

Listening to what they said, Mrs. Jiang recalled the past, and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, your eldest brother took care of Qi Ming well back then. He was a big boy, and he didn't make much fuss when he felt a little uncomfortable. He just hummed." Twice. Later, when I gave birth to Qingyan, I was in a hurry. Qingyan is a girl who is more delicate. She is always made to cry by your elder brother. I can only teach him bit by bit. It takes about half a month for him to finally be able to Change Qingyan's diaper safely."

These things are funny and a bit sad to say, mainly because the old Jiang Wang had passed away at that time, Jiang Wang was the only woman in the Jiang family, she gave birth to Jiang Qingyan and her health was not good, the old man Jiang could only help wash diapers, Cooking, no one can help in the house.

If you talk about old Jiang Wang, it will easily cause old man Jiang's sadness. Jiang Wang didn't continue to talk about this topic. She mentioned Qi Ming's childbirth exam, and asked how the two children in the eldest room of Li's family were doing. .

Li Chengshi knew the progress of Li Mingde and Li Mingli in the county school. Last year, he basically picked up the two children from the county school and sent them to the county school.

After thinking for a while, Li Chengshi said: "I heard from them that the master of the school suggested that the two of them wait until next year to take the children's examination. They have only entered school for less than a year, and their family members think it is not yet time."

"That's the reason. It costs a lot to take part in a children's test, and it will be more sure to accumulate for a year." Jiang Yuzhi agreed.

He actually wanted to suggest this way before, but he thought that he had promised to guarantee the two children of the Li family for free. If he took the initiative to say so, would the people in the Li family worry that he was not sincerely guaranteeing the two children? It's not good if there is a misunderstanding at that time.

Speaking of the two scholars in the big house, it is inevitable to talk about the business of the elder brother and the elder sister-in-law. Li Chengshi chatted a few words by the way: "My elder brother and elder sister-in-law are now doing business in the county town, and the business is not bad..."

After a meal and chatting here and there, Li Chengshi took Li Mingjin back to Li's house with the New Year gift prepared by Jiang's family.

Most of the annual gifts are for Jiang Zhiyun and Li Mingkang, there are postpartum body conditioning, small clothes for children, diapers, etc., and some are all kinds of food. They basically took a piece of what the Jiang family had. Give it to Li Chengshi.

There were two big bags full of things, and there were a lot of them. Compared with Li Chengshi and Qian Xinghua, who came back from her mother's house first, saw it, and almost smashed the door frame of her house.

In the morning, Qian Xinghua and Li Chengli also went back to Qian's house.

When going out, Li Chengli went to the grain storage room to carry a large bag of white rice. This white rice was the last leftover of his family. If it was sent to Qian's house during the Chinese New Year, he would have to buy it outside if he wanted to eat fine grain before the autumn harvest.

Thinking that her family could only eat coarse food tomorrow, Qian Xinghua quarreled with Li Chengli directly: "I just gave two buckets of fish before, and the New Year's gift is already enough. How can I prepare so much when I go back to my house? Bring a basket Just go with the cabbage, put the rice down for me!"

Li Chengli only said one sentence: "Xinghua, who doesn't grow a few cabbages themselves, what's the difference between taking two cabbages and empty hands when I accompany you back to your mother's house during the Chinese New Year?"

It is impossible to go back to her natal home empty-handed during the Chinese New Year, but it is also impossible to send back a big bag of white rice. Qian Xinghua wanted to say something, but Li Chengli had already strode out, regardless of Qian Xinghua's thoughts.

Qian Xinghua couldn't beat Li Chengshi, she chased after him empty-handed, cursing all the way, but fortunately she remembered to save face for her man on the way, so she lowered her voice a bit.

The few children behind the two of them, Li Mingchun and Li Mingxia lowered their heads and hurried on their way, trying not to attract their mother's attention and scold them.

Liming, who has always been favored by Qian Xinghua, doesn't care if his mother and father quarrel, and walks leisurely by himself, and if he can't walk, let Limingchun carry him on his back.

After arriving at Qian's house, Qian Xinghua put away all kinds of complaints and told her mother, Mrs. Qian, how much the white rice in this bag weighed. Stuck throat, most suitable for the elderly with bad teeth.

Mrs. Qian is much more shrewd than Mrs. Li. Hearing her daughter keep talking about how good Baimi is, and seeing the reluctance in her eyes looking at Baimi, she guessed that her daughter gave away a big gift in distress. Pockets of white rice.

Now there is no mother-in-law on Qian Xinghua, she is in charge of the house, and all the things in the house are her own. It is normal for her to feel distressed when sending things out, but she still feels so distressed when sending them back to her mother's house, Granny Qian is a little dissatisfied .

Some things don't think too much before they start, and once they start, they can't stop. Mrs. Qian couldn't help but compare the changes of her daughter before and after the separation of the Li family.

In the past, although Qian Xinghua didn't go back to her natal family much, when Mrs. Li was in charge of the house, she would definitely bring some things with her every time she came back. White rice, white flour, corn flour, etc., may not be very fine, but they must be filling. Good stuff for a full stomach.

However, after the separation of the Li family, the daughter only returned to her natal family once, when she boasted that there was a basket of radishes in the basket.

Radishes and food must be more valuable than food. The more Mrs. Li thought about it, the more she felt cold. Her daughter had only herself in her heart.

Later, at the dinner table, Qian Xinghua ate the fish that Li Chengli sent to Qian's family years ago, and couldn't help but recite a few words about how much these fish were worth during the Chinese New Year, and then said about their life after the separation of Li's family. It's hard to live, there are more children in the family, and the three sentences are inseparable from the word "money".

She made the daughters-in-law of the Qian family unhappy. The fish was sent by Li Chengli on his own initiative, and they didn't want it. Qian Xinghua said it as if the Qian family had taken advantage of it. Don't give up, don't send the fish at the beginning, thanks to the fact that they all thought that the elder sister was a good person before, and wanting to get her mother's family after the separation is really a waste of their gratitude.

This time returning to Qian Xinghua made old lady Qian feel cold, and the return gift to Qian Xinghua was very light. Compared with the big and small bags when Bai and Jiang's family came back, Qian Xinghua also became dissatisfied with her natal family.
