nosy on you

Alternative reunion dinner

When receiving a call from the old lady for help, Er Niu spoke indifferently and bluntly.

When seeing the medical bills, the second girl deliberately pretended to be a fool.

Yan Jing's first impression of her was not very good, and the second aunt was probably the same. She was stunned for two seconds, and then quickly turned away without even a smile on her face.

The middle-aged man behind her seemed honest and honest. He didn't speak after entering the door. He nodded and greeted the people in the room, and then put the plastic bag in his hand on the TV cabinet.

The bag is not the white shopping bag commonly used in supermarkets. It is a bit like a red and blue vest bag for garbage. The stuff stuffed inside is clear at a glance. Although the packaging has been wiped for a few dry goods and milk powder for middle-aged and elderly people, traces of dust can still be seen.

It should be a boxing gift given to my second aunt last year. In order to save money and trouble, I mentioned it here again.

There is also this habit of paying New Year's greetings in the county town, but few people can get the New Year's goods.

What's more, I still gave it to my own mother.

Compared with the shabby souvenirs, Second Auntie's newly bought outfit is much more glamorous. The last time something happened suddenly, she hadn't had time to change out of the salesman's uniform when she rushed to the hospital.

She has plenty of time today, and her dress is also extraordinarily grand. The smoky makeup with flaming red lips, fluffy and elegant hairstyle, high-waisted wide-leg pants and long windbreaker, the exquisite clothes obviously made her a lot more confident.

The little girl following her turned around in the living room, her eyes fixed on the two bags of snacks that Gu Xi put under the coffee table, the little girl quietly took a box of cookies from the bag, and took off the cover I ate it.

"Xinxin, eat less, dinner is about to start..." The second aunt seemed to have no intention of stopping, she dragged her husband around to the dining table and took a look, "Why don't you call someone?"

Grandma brought three cups of hot tea out from the kitchen, turned her head to look at the garbage bag sent by the second aunt, and said nothing.

"Grandma, cousin." Xinxin stuffed the biscuit into her mouth with her right hand, pushed the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose with her left hand, and greeted her lightly without even raising her head.

"Mom, is there anything I can help you with?" The second uncle stood up on his knees.

"No need, I have Xiaojin to help me. I'm almost ready." Grandma waved her hand, went to sit next to Yanjing, and frowned as she watched the granddaughter who was clinging to the biscuit box and devouring it.

Five minutes later, the doorbell rang again, and grandma hurried over to open the door.

"Mom, I'm sorry, I'm late due to some business in the store." The woman outside the door explained a few words softly, leaned on the wall and kicked off the pair of pointed hats, from the cabinet. He came out with three pairs of slippers.

This person should be the youngest daughter of the old lady.

The second aunt is called Erniu, so is the younger aunt called Xiaoniu?

The chick entered the house with her husband and son, and the little uncle also carried a boxing gift, but the specifications were several grades higher than the pile of old goods sent by the second aunt.

A pair of Wulangye, two Chinese cigarettes, and three boxes of instant bird's nest.

"Mom, Happy Chinese New Year. I just bought some random things in the supermarket. You can pick and choose a few things. Don't be disgusted." I don't know if it was intentional or not, the little uncle put the things next to the garbage bag.

"It's fine if people come, why spend so much money..." Grandma put the bowls and chopsticks on the table, stood in the dining room and shouted, "Everyone is here, everyone, take your seats, you can eat."

"I'm going to set off a cannon, the custom can't be lost." The little uncle changed his shoes, took out his car keys and went downstairs.

"Be careful, you bought your jacket for more than 2000 yuan, don't blow it up." The aunt pushed her long hair back from her chest, slowly took off the white rabbit fur coat on her body, and pulled her neck The platinum necklace trembled.

Gu Xi sat without moving, feeling an inexplicable irritability in his heart.

The second aunt and the younger aunt hadn't come to grandma's house for a reunion dinner for several years. The two of them always went to the Three Treasure Hall for nothing, and they showed up together as if they had made an appointment. The purpose must not be simple.

The point is that the two women didn't have a word on their mouths, and they could say anything when they were fighting each other. If they missed a sentence or a sentence, it would be bad if they made strictness suspicious.

If I knew it was like this, I shouldn't have come in the first place.

"Didn't you read the weather forecast?" The second aunt started the battle first, "It's not too hot to wear a fur coat when it's over 20 degrees."

"The fur collar is just a decoration, Second Sister, read more magazines when you have time..." My aunt immediately launched a counterattack, "This year's fashion is like this, and leather clothes are very expensive, more than 6000."

"It's amazing, only old women like to wear fur now..." Second Aunt sneered with disdain, "Look how many young girls in the street will buy these."

"That's right, isn't the windbreaker you're wearing a cheap brand that young people would shop around..." The aunt pinched the diamond ring on her ring finger and twirled it a little bit, "And it's a [-]% off clearance item."

"What do you mean!" Second Aunt stood up awkwardly.

"Don't get excited..." Second Uncle quickly gave her a hand, "For those who celebrate Chinese New Year, please don't say a few words."

The second aunt shook his hand away forcefully, pointed at his nose and shouted: "Why should I say less, people are stepping on my face, you are so useless, you can't even fart loudly."

"Tsk tsk tsk, second sister, you'd better send this kind of thing to mom..." My aunt stared at the garbage bags on the cabinet, and raised her eyebrows triumphantly, "It's worse than the New Year's goods I gave to the employees, what a sting. "

"You're just a dilapidated store, where did you find any employees, and hired two handymen to treat yourself as the boss..." The second aunt was so angry that her face was flushed, and her voice almost knocked the roof down, "My mother Don't smoke or drink, she won't need the ones you bought, you're like a bastard on a tree, showing off!"

Gu Xi leaned on the sofa, watching the two of them foaming and lashing out at each other with a blank face. He had long been used to this kind of scene, as long as he didn't get involved, he would choose to sit on the sidelines most of the time.

The firecrackers downstairs exploded in an instant, and other residents seemed to be infected, and they lit firecrackers one after another, and the crackling noise immediately overshadowed the quarrel in the house.

Grandma was more calm than him, picked up the lighter and lit the alcohol stove, then filled the cup on the table with drinks, and yelled again during the brief silence of the explosion.

"Let's go and have dinner." Gu Xi pulled Yan Jing to the dining table and sat down next to grandma.

"Mingming, stop playing and go eat." My aunt's son has been playing with his phone with his head down since he entered the door, as if the whole world has nothing to do with him, and now he was dragged up by his mother and returned to reality.

The grandma served Yan Jin a bowl of lily meatball soup with a smile, and helped Gu Xi pick up a large elbow, and her attitude towards the other two grandchildren seemed much colder.

The second aunt and the younger aunt seemed dissatisfied with her discriminatory treatment, and their eyes fell on the strict face. This was the first time they noticed the existence of strictness tonight.

"Mom, is he Xiaoxi's friend..." Auntie forced a smile, "Why don't you introduce him to us?"

"I broke my leg before, and it was Xiao Jin who sent me to the hospital." Grandma smiled and took a sip of soup.

"Young man, I'm sorry..." The second aunt's eyes were a little wandering, and she said in a cold voice, "I misunderstood you last time."

"This child is really nice. He looks like an honest person. Second sister, are you too suspicious..." The aunt said, "By the way, the medical expenses I paid in advance have not yet been paid. I will be responsible for the money."

The second uncle immediately took out his wallet: "Since it's a misunderstanding, let's give it to..."

Before he finished speaking, the second aunt turned her head and coughed a few times, quickly pinched his arm hard, the second uncle's eyebrows furrowed, and the wallet fell to the ground immediately.

"No need..." Yan Jin shook his head with a smile, "Gu Xi has already returned the money to me."

My aunt didn't really want to pay for it, she only said the polite words to my second aunt, since the goal was achieved and the money matter was settled, she naturally wouldn't insist on taking it from her.

"Mom, this little stir-fried yellow beef is delicious!" Xinxin lifted up her chopsticks, picked up half a bowl of shredded beef with surprising speed, and almost took the plate away because of her selfish eating.

"This dish is made by Xiaojin..." Grandma broke off a chicken leg and put it in the serious bowl, "Come on, eat more."

The little uncle quickly took a sip, smiled and gave him a thumbs up: "It tastes really good, Xiao Jin, what do you do now, are you interested in coming to my restaurant to help?"

"Not only is he good at craftsmanship, but he also has a good eye..." Grandma touched the collar, "He gave me this silk scarf."

"He must have a high income, why would he work as a chef in that small restaurant of yours..." Second Aunt said eccentrically, "Mom, this brand of silk scarf is not cheap, it can even catch up with my coat."

"That's because your clothes are of low grade..." Auntie gave her a sideways glance, "I'm too embarrassed to say anything if it's changed."

Grandma frowned and clicked her tongue: "Did you two come to my place to quarrel? The food can't stop your mouths. If you want to quarrel, don't interfere with my meal."

The room finally quieted down, only the TV was playing the local news in a low voice, which were all the customs and customs of celebrating the Spring Festival in various parts of the province. The festive music and the atmosphere on the dining table were a bit incompatible.

After finally finishing the reunion dinner, the second aunt and the younger aunt nestled on the sofa, drinking tea while nibbling on the pile of snacks that Gu Xi bought, crossing Erlang's legs and posing as international VIPs.

On the contrary, Yan Jing, a real guest, helped grandma to clean up the mess, wash the dishes and clean the table. When the two of them walked out of the kitchen, the CCTV Spring Festival Gala had just started.

"You take Xinxin home first, I'll stay here and chat with my mother for a while." The second aunt winked at her husband.

"You go back too, remember to ask Mingming to write the homework." The aunt was not to be outdone.

My aunt got married a few years earlier than my second aunt. They both liked to compete in everything, and even had children together. Gu Xi's cousin and cousin were promoted to the third year of high school this year, and they will face the college entrance examination in a few months.

It's a pity that the results of these two wastes are not satisfactory, and they should be happy if they can pass the three exams.

"Xiaoxi, I need your help with something." There were only five of them left in the living room, and the second aunt's tone could not hear the slightest begging attitude, so it was a matter of course.

Gu Xi turned her head to look at Yan Jing: "Go to the guest room to watch TV, I'll go in and find you later."
