husband in another world
Chapter 74 New Year's Eve
He Xi's family must be really bad at eating these few mouthfuls, so he brought the little milk dog over without standing still.
There are four puppies in total, two males and two females. The puppies are not afraid of strangers when they move to a new place, and they find it fun to scurry around boldly.Trembling up to Shen Mo's knee, she sniffed his face vigorously with the tip of her tender red nose, as if she felt that his smell was not bad, she clicked her mouth twice, and slumped down on her bare nest.
He Xi was very happy to see that the little milk dog liked Shen Mo so much. For a family like Zhou Jing, if the puppy could please the owner, it would be better than those country mud legs.He secretly sighed in his heart, this little guy knows how to pick people, and he picks one right.
Shen Mo hugged the fluffy little guy gently, and it was obvious that he loved it very much. He would kiss and stick to his face for a while, and his eyes were so gentle.
"Oh..." The little guy who was sleeping soundly was suddenly picked up by the back of his neck, and his four short legs kicked wildly. His sleepy little eyes finally opened a crack, and found that he was hanging in mid-air. Immediately, they were so frightened that they all opened their small grape-like eyes and screamed even more joyfully.
"Brother Jing, you scared it." Shen Mo hurriedly jumped off the chair to rescue the little milk dog.
Zhou Jing stood upright, straightened his arms and lifted the little milk dog over his head, but Shen Mo jumped twice and couldn't reach it.Looking at him with his mouth pursed, Zhou Jing's heart itch was tickled like that, he was more wronged than a little milk dog.
He said righteously: "The dog is dirty, how can I hold it in my arms, beware of bacteria?"
"Bacteria, what is that?" Shen Mo asked confused.
He Xi also didn't know what bacteria were, but he could understand the disgust in Zhou Jinghua's words, and hurriedly said: "It's not dirty, the little milk dog is not dirty when it's just born. I don't believe you can smell the smell of milk." Well. And these little guys have been weaned, so they are easy to feed. Just give some thin rice soup every day, and after half a month, you can give some leftovers."
Farm dogs are not as expensive as the pet dogs of later generations. Many people’s dogs don’t even feed them. It's just that most of them are skinny, but it doesn't affect the housekeeping at all, and they don't bite people randomly.
Shen Mo was even more aggrieved, and the little milk dog seemed to understand, and his calf kicked even more joyously, screaming and screaming, breaking people's hearts.
Shen Mo looked like he was about to cry if he didn't return it.
Zhou Jing turned around and threw himself into the arms of Zhou Yu who was sitting beside him.
"Kids like this thing, I'll hold it for you to play with."
Zhou Yu: "..." Ah Mo isn't clean in his arms, so won't he be dirty in his arms?
Shen Mo was so angry that he stared straight at him with his beautiful Danfeng eyes.Zhou Jing actually puffed out his chest, feeling flattered, did you see that his husband was so seduced by him that he looked at him without blinking his eyes.
And He Xi seems to have vaguely understood something, Mr. Zhou doesn't seem to really dislike the dirty little milk dog, but just doesn't want Zhou Fulang to hug him, why is that?
Shen Lin was pregnant and didn't get close to the little milk dog, but secretly pouted at Wang Ren, "Stingy."
Wang Ren grinned and laughed.
In the evening, I cooked thick rice soup for the little milk dogs, which was sticky and mixed with two grains of millet. The four little milk dogs buried their heads in the bowls and drank deliciously.Among them, the one that was hugged by Shen Mo was very domineering, with twisted little buttocks, hit left and right, and knocked over the two little milk dogs on both sides at once.That's not enough, he took a few mouthfuls of rice soup, and then used his small head to push the little milk dog opposite him on all fours.Only its own little head is left in the whole small basin, so it is satisfied.
Zhou Jing pointed to the little milk dog, and said in a tone that he had seen through long ago: "Look, I'll just say it's bad!"
Shen Mo: "..."
Zhou Yu: "..."
The two women in the family: "..."
Fortunately, Shen Lin and Wang Ren left, otherwise there would be two more speechless ones.
A thick quilt was folded into four layers in the hall, and four puppies were put into the quilt and curled up with each other.
Shen Mo walked into the room and closed the door, still looking back reluctantly, "Is it okay to put them in the hall like this, will it be cold?"
"Little Mo, the living room of our house is warmer than other people's bedrooms." Zhou Jing untied his belt, took off his coat, and continued to take off his fur trousers and coat.
Seeing Zhou Jing who had stripped him naked in an instant, Shen Mo became panicked after a while, he swallowed involuntarily, his lips turned cyanotic.
"You...what are you going to do? Tomorrow...tomorrow is the New Year's Eve, and you have to get up early to be busy." The more Shen Mo spoke, the more he spoke, the less confident he became.
The enemy is strong and we are weak, it will only increase the prestige of the enemy, Zhou Jing walked up to Shen Mo with a grinning grin, and hugged the man by his legs as soon as he got low.
"You, what are you going to do?" Shen Mo felt that the scene of the little milk dog being held by the back of the neck today was reappearing, but now the weak and helpless one became him.
Throwing him on the bed, before Shen Mo could react, the majestic Zhou Jing pressed on him.One bite on Shen Mobainen's neck, obviously he was the one who was abused, but the man lay on his shoulder pitifully wronged and cried miserably: "You never took the initiative to kiss me, let alone kiss me. I've kissed it, and now I've kissed it, tell me, which one do you care more about, me or it?"
Zhou Jing's tone seemed to say in the next sentence, "With me but without it, with it without me, who do you want?"Then you should shake your head, I don't listen, I just don't listen, and I don't listen to what you say. The annual drama.
"Why don't you talk, but you talk. Who do you care about?"
Zhou Jing thought about it for a while and took a step back, begging for mercy, "Why don't you give me a kiss." He pointed to his mouth, "In this way I won't be jealous, and I can consider letting you play with it in the future."
Shen Mo's face was blushing, and his eyes were closed. Zhou Jing was like Zhou Jing, he knew it.
Zhou Jing persisted, "Are you really not close?"
no dear!
Hearing this, Shen Mo only closed his eyes even tighter, Zhou Jing laughed maliciously twice, his hands did not know what he was doing under the quilt, in short, Shen Mo opened his watery eyes, and kissed him as if death was at home. As soon as Zhou Jing's mouth touched the man's lips, he was pinched down on the bed and gnawed hungrily.
The atmosphere of the New Year's Eve is very strong, and the sound of crackling firecrackers rang intermittently at dawn.
The two women got up very early to be busy, and when Zhou Jing woke up, the room was already warmed by the fire, and an earth dragon was born.
Looking back, the little husband was sleeping soundly, his bright red cheeks were like two balls of little red apples.He possessed himself and kissed him, only to feel the infinite tenderness in his heart.This is his little husband. With him, he is no longer wandering and helpless in this other world. He has roots and lost his family. This year is the first year they have been together, and it has a special meaning.
He got up and washed his face lightly. As soon as he reached the door, the two women greeted him with smiles.
"Master, Happy New Year!"
Zhou Jing smiled and said, "Happy New Year."
Mrs. Ji said: "Master, the young master has been waiting for you in the yard for a long time. After the firecrackers are set up, we will wait for you to get up and set them off. Do you set up a meal after you let them go? Today I made wild boar porridge and lotus seed porridge, and the vegetables are spring rolls." , meat omelette, golden belly soup, dry-stir-fried mutton.”
Chinese New Year pays attention to pairing, cooking and eating are not singular.Because the evening is the highlight, these two meals during the day are very simple.
Zhou Jingdao: "I'll go and fire the cannons with Xiaoyu first, warm them up first when I set off the cannons, and eat together when Xiao Mo wakes up. By the way, don't open the door for now, the children who pay New Year's greetings will wait for Xiao Mo to wake up before letting them in. Prepare more food, if there is no food, add it quickly, so that the children who come later will not be unable to eat."
"Understood, servant girl, go down and get ready."
Zhou Jing nodded and said: "This Chinese New Year, there are only three of us in the family, regardless of whether we are slaves or maidservants. We sit at the same table and have fun. You don't have to shy away from it, it's my permission."
The master-servant system of the imperial dynasty was strict, and the servants who signed the death contract were not even as good as the beasts. The beasts were afraid of being exhausted from doing too much work, but the slaves lived and died according to the master's will.In this case, not to mention eating at the same table, you have to be a celebrity in front of the master to pick up the leftovers from the master.
But the Zhou family never treated people so harshly. They have always been allowed to eat whatever the host's family eats, as long as it is not outrageously expensive.
Now that they are allowed to serve at the table during the Chinese New Year, this is not only a matter of eating, but also treating them as human beings.Mrs. Ji hurriedly knelt down to thank her, and when she got up, her eyes were slightly red. She thought that she should not cry during the New Year, so as not to bring bad luck to the host family, so she endured it.
The little milk dogs whined and barked for food behind Zhou Jing, and Zhou Jing strode out of the room as if he didn't listen.Mrs. Ji covered her mouth and snickered, "Sister Zhang, quickly feed these little things some rice soup, so that Fulang wakes up and pesters him to ask the master to see it. I don't know why I'm going to be jealous again .”
Mrs. Zhang also laughed when she thought of Zhou Jing's inexplicable drinking of vinegar yesterday.
Zhou Yu has been playing in the yard for a long time. No matter how much he has experienced, he is still a child at heart. He made a bunch of firecrackers and put them on the ground, waiting for Zhou Jing to come and set them off together.
"father."
Zhou Jing said, "Did you let it go before?"
"No, I've seen children in the village let go."
Zhou Jingxiang's hand paused, and then he smiled and said: "It's okay, use this long incense stick for a while, hide away from it, run away as soon as the firecracker is lit, the farther the better, don't get hit by it. "
"My son knows." Zhou Yu eagerly took Chang Xiang, and when Zhou Jing released the first one, he immediately released the second one.
With two sounds of 'bang bang', the firecrackers burst out of Laogao, and they exploded in the sky.
Zhou Jing laughed and said: "Good boy, if you put it so high, it will be smooth in the coming year."
"Father too."
The father and son set off a firecracker in the yard, and Mrs. Ji came over to call for someone, saying that Shen Mo was up and waiting for them to eat, and the two entered the hall.
Shen Mo was sitting at the table, playing with the little milk dog in his arms, when he heard Zhou Jing's footsteps, he put the little milk dog on the ground like a thief, straightened his back and pretended to be doing nothing.The little milk dog whimpered and grabbed his trouser legs at his feet, and Shen Mo also acted mighty and unyielding.
Zhou Jing suppressed his smile and pretended not to notice the dog hair on his long gown. When he sat down to eat, the two women ate with the host's family, and then added two more dishes temporarily, a piece of fried pork with fungus, and a piece of squab with eggs.
Chinese New Year is very particular, every dish must have surplus, which means surplus every year.
After breakfast, the table was removed, and the big iron gate of the Zhou family was slowly opened to let the children in the village in to send auspicious blessings.
There is a custom in Wangjia Village that the children who come to the family on the New Year’s Eve come to announce the good news. The more people who go there, the better life will be in the coming year. This is why even the most stingy people in the village will prepare some cheap melon seeds fried by themselves, and grab a handful for the children who come, so as not to let the children go away empty-handed, so as not to say discouraged words.Of course, if someone is too poor, the adults in the family will specifically ask not to go, and the children will not go, after all, they will not be able to get food if they go.
In the early days of the 31st, all households with children were released, and they were allowed to pay New Year's greetings from house to house.Say a few auspicious words, exchange for wedding candy, or other food, and the food you get is the snacks for the children in their [-]s or even the first month.
So what the children look forward to most is the Chinese New Year. In order to get more snacks, the adults in the family will sew two big and deep pockets on their clothes. They often turn from the head of the village to the end of the village, and the two pockets can be filled. , children can eat for many days.
This year, the children in Wangjia Village all followed Zhou’s family without being asked by adults. They all know that Zhou’s family is rich now. On the 29th, their own family swallowed a wild boar. Wild boar is much more expensive than domestic pigs. , such a big pig will not be able to eat even after the first lunar month, and it has to be eaten all at once.The children all know that pork is delicious, and they are so greedy that they can't help but talk. They also heard from their parents that the reason why the family can still eat last year's meat this year is thanks to Mr. Zhou. Live well.
Because these children thought that going to Zhou's house would definitely get more snacks, they squatted at the gate of Zhou's house early.But waiting left and right, jumping up and down, Zhou's house just wouldn't open the door, and the children scratched their heads in anxiety. If it wasn't for the big iron gate of Zhou's house that couldn't be opened, the children would rush in in a hurry.Among them, a few ignorant ones knocked on the door impatiently, and the women did not open the door, but responded from the partition wall in the courtyard, "The master has a lot of family affairs, and the two masters are busy worshiping the ancestors. Open the door and let the children in to send auspiciousness. '
The children don't know the truth of this statement, but everyone in the Wang family village knows that the Zhou family has no ancestors to worship. Zhou Jing has betrayed the Wang family, and his parents don't even recognize him.
The children had no choice but to go to other people's homes to ask for auspiciousness. After walking around the Zhou family, they finally opened the closed iron gate and let the long-awaited children in.
"Xiaoer, Da Niu, Zhou's house is open, I saw Tie Zhu, he just came out of Zhou's house, he pretended to be a risk in both pockets, and even held a persimmon in his hand." The [-]-year-old boy jumped into Wang Fulu's house and yelled. He had a good time with Wang Fulu's four grandchildren and was a frequent visitor to Wang Fulu's house, so he was not restrained.
This year, Shen Lin was pregnant, and the Wang family specially prepared a lot of snacks, in order to attract more children, and asked a few more auspicious words for the child in Shen Lin's stomach, hoping that he would give birth to a boy in one fell swoop.
The two wives of the Wang family were so envious, thinking that Wang Fulu and his wife were not so generous when they were pregnant, they felt sour.But when Shen Lin came back at thirty that year, the sourness disappeared immediately, because the Zhou family brought back more food for Shen Lin than the Wang family prepared for the three new year's festivals combined. As for the snacks for the children, The Zhou family prepared a single for Shen Lin, but even the one from the Wang family couldn't handle it.
Although Zhuangshi had already asked for it once when he came to Wang's house for the first time in the morning, Shen Lin still smiled and grabbed him a lot when he saw him.
The two sister-in-laws of the Wang family saw that Shen Lin was a bit of a prodigal. They had to give this child auspiciousness, but they couldn't just give it to each child once they came. How could they give it.But thinking that Shen Lin didn't need to prepare anything at home, they were all brought by Zhou's family. Even if they felt distressed, they couldn't persuade Shen Lin not to give him his own things. There is no such reason .
"Happy New Year, Aunt Shen, and good luck. I also wish Aunt Shen a big fat boy who is white and fat." Zhuang Shi said a lot of auspicious words to Shen Lin.
Shen Lin smiled and said: "Auntie, I will lend you a good fortune." Now that Shen Lin's household items have made him not care about such small things, it is better to ask for some good luck.
Hao Yulan heard strong words in the kitchen and knew that they were going to Zhou's house to give auspicious gifts, but she didn't hear the two daughters-in-law's orders, so she came out and said, "Go to Zhou's house to send auspicious words, and come back after asking for some snacks. You can’t ask for others, and you can’t rely on your uncle’s relationship to open your mouth to ask for something good, you know?”
The second daughter-in-law also instructed: "Listen to grandma, if you let me know that you took something else, be careful not to share the meat with you at night."
The two children of the second daughter-in-law's family were so frightened that they patted their chests and promised that they would never want anything except snacks.
The eldest daughter-in-law saw that the younger uncle and daughter-in-law had said the same thing, so she said something casually.The two children remembered the words of their second aunt and promised that they would never take anything else.
"It's okay, you go, if the elder brother and brother-in-law give a red envelope, they will accept it, it's a face for my aunt."
The children didn't know what to do, so they looked up at Hao Yulan.
Hao Yulan said: "That's not okay, if that's the case, the children won't be allowed to go."
Shen Lin persuaded: "Mother, our two families are relatives. How can we not let the children go to the eldest brother-in-law's house to send auspiciousness during the Chinese New Year? Besides, because of my relationship, the eldest brother-in-law is the elder of the children. How can there be an elder who does not want to give up?" It's shameless to give lucky money to the younger generation. And if Xiao Yu from the eldest brother's husband's family comes to pay New Year's greetings in the future, can we just send the children away with snacks? Take advantage of the elder brother's family, and then see how much they give to the children, and I will return as much as I want."
Hao Yulan just smiled and said: "Yes, I was thinking about it just now. They are all relatives. Naturally, they are different from other people's families. They should walk around. Then you guys will receive another red envelope, and you can't ask for anything else."
Only then did the five children leave happily.
When I arrived at Zhou's house, I found that the children in the main room had lined up. Almost all the children in Wangjia Village were waiting here.
Da Niu, the eldest grandson of the Wang family, said in amazement: "Why are there so many people, what snacks are they giving?"
As soon as I asked, a few children happily walked over with their pockets in their hands.
Zhuang Zhu pointed to their pockets in surprise and said: "Look, they each have a persimmon, raisins and candied fruit. Those things are very expensive. I begged my mother for several days before he bought me a small handful. It's just that she and her father are still reluctant to eat, and leave it to me and my sister."
"Ah, so what should we do? We can't handle such expensive snacks. If we come so late, we won't be able to get them." Daniel asked worriedly.
Who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, Mrs. Ji saw the four of them as soon as she passed by the courtyard.Those who are servants of other people understand the mind of the master's family better than the master's family, and they all know how much Shen Mo values his younger brother, so Mrs. Ji pays special attention to Shen Lin's husband's family.In the first few days after returning to the village, Mrs. Ji inquired about the Wang family and got to know the members of the Wang family inside and out.Now it was obvious at a glance that these auspicious children belonged to the Wang family, so they rushed up in two steps.
"The four of you are the nephews and nieces of Mrs. Shen's family. Come with me."
"Ah?" The children froze for a moment, still not understanding what was going on, and followed Mrs. Ji out of the long queue in a foolish manner.
There were a few older children who knew something in the team. Seeing that the four children of the Wang family were led by Mrs. Ji to beg for snacks first, they were also worried that the good snacks would be robbed, so they yelled: "We came first, and we waited for a long time. How can we let them jump in line first?"
The four children were also quite polite. They felt that they were late and asked for a limited number of good snacks. This was equivalent to snatching snacks from the children who lined up first, so they lowered their heads in shame and wanted to go back to the queue.But Mrs. Ji grabbed her arm.
Mrs. Ji didn't reprimand the child, nor gave him any shame, but just explained lightly: "This is the nephew and niece of my master Zhou Fulang, his uncle is my husband's brother, no matter what, there are no nephews and nieces." Going to Uncle’s house still needs to queue up.”
The main reason is that the Zhou family did not live in Wangjia Village for the second half of the year, so the children who were already forgetful only had the impression of the Zhou family as the rich and noble, and completely forgot about the relatives of the Zhou family and the Wang family. relation.
Those older children remembered what Mrs. Ji said, shut up and dared not say any more.After all, it is right to give all good things to nephews and nieces and not give them to children from other families. For a while, I was afraid that those four children would get nothing if they sued their uncle.The older children felt a little regretful.
Mrs. Ji said: "Don't make trouble, and say auspicious words when you go in. If you have some, you will be the last one. Our master doesn't take this small snack seriously, it's just for auspiciousness .”
The rest of the children were relieved.And the four children of the Wang family were no longer guilty of following Mrs. Ji, and only after thinking of the reminders from their uncle and grandma at home did they fully realize that the old man who lived in this noble compound was their uncle.
"Fu Lang, the four children of the Wang family have come to send auspicious gifts, so I asked me to bring them in first."
The four children spoke sweetly, and immediately shouted: "Hello, Uncle, I wish Uncle a happy New Year, good luck and prosperity, and give birth to a little brother for us as soon as Uncle."
Shen Mo knew that the uncle they were talking about was Shen Lin, so he said this to his heart, and said with a smile: "These four backpacks are for you, and they are full of snacks. Let's carry one back to eat. There are red envelopes, one for each person."
Daniu is the biggest and the most sensible. He remembers his grandma's order and refuses to ask for more.
"How can the four of you be the same as the other children? You are all my nephews and nieces. Do you think you can be the same as them?"
Daniel was confused by Shen Mo, and he accepted what he said made sense.
Shen Mo asked Mrs. Ji to call Zhou Yu out, and introduced him: "This is your big brother, from uncle's family. You have met big brother, let him give you red envelopes."
Seeing that the four children were obviously dressed differently from them, as luxurious as Zhou Yu who walked down from the painting, he was a little cautious, and called out timidly: "Big brother."
Zhou Yu calmly distributed red envelopes to everyone, and let them go with a few nice words in a slow voice.
The eyes of the children queuing up were red with envy, and Zhuo Shi, who was passing by and still queuing up, was very unsatisfied.
Tie Zhu was the grandson of Wang Fen's family who was the first to get snacks. He walked home happily with a persimmon in his pocket. The sharp-eyed Wang Fen saw him as soon as he entered the door.
He scolded sharply, "You son of a bitch, who didn't learn well at such a young age, you actually learned to be a thief and dared to steal food from the house. You know how expensive these dried persimmons are, a box of six costs tens of dollars, I can't even bear to eat them Save it as a gift in the future, if you dare to steal it out to eat, see if I don’t beat you to death!”
After cursing, the child couldn't help explaining, so he slapped the child on the back several times, making the child cry out loud.
The daughter-in-law who was busy in the house heard the cry of the child, and hurried out to stop her: "Mother, what are you doing beating the child during Chinese New Year?"
Relying on her status as sister-in-law, Zhang Ju is Wang Fen's own daughter, and usually gossips in Wang Fen's ears, and also shows embarrassment to this sister-in-law.
Now that there are witnesses and evidences again, she directly reprimanded her sister-in-law: "Look at the good son you have taught. He didn't learn well at a young age. He learned to steal things at such a young age. That persimmon is so expensive. How expensive is it?" You can only buy six of them for ten big bucks, and my mother saved the New Year's gift for me when I got married after the next year, but she asked your son to steal it. How do you think it will be settled?"
Zhang's daughter-in-law was stunned. She didn't expect her son to steal such expensive food. Now Zhang Ju asked her what to do, but she didn't know what to do.All the money earned by her head of the family was handed over to the public and given to her mother-in-law. It was useless for them to have a big son in their hands, so how could they compensate them.If you don't accompany her for a year, she and her son will never live a happy life!
At this time, the child wiped away his tears and choked with sobs: "It's not that I stole grandma. I went to Zhou's house, and Zhou Fulang rewarded us with snacks. Each child has a piece of dried persimmon, as well as raisins and other preserved fruits."
Zhang Ju said meanly: "This child is lying, and he is gone. Such expensive food can be used as snacks for you children. Calculated on the basis of the head, how much would it cost? If there is gold and silver in the family!"
The daughter-in-law of the Zhang family knows her own child well, and she knows what her own son is like, so she won't lie about this kind of thing.
"Sister-in-law, I know the son I gave birth to. He won't lie. Mother, why don't you go back to the house and have a look. If you still have a lot of persimmons, then this snack was brought back by the child from the Zhou family. Now the Zhou family It’s not impossible if it’s developed.”
Wang Fen didn't believe it, but in order to silence her daughter-in-law, she went into the house to have a look.While walking, he cursed: "The Zhou family is not stupid, why would they give such expensive snacks for no reason. Look, I'll show you if there are less, you two won't even want to have New Year's Eve dinner this year..."
Wang Fen angrily opened the curtain and saw that there were six dried persimmons, and they were all there.He was stunned for a long time before he realized it, and rushed out quickly.
"What kind of snacks did the Zhou family give you back?" said without waiting for the child's answer, and went to rummage through the child's pocket.
Seeing that there were indeed raisins and preserved fruits inside, he immediately took off the child's cotton-padded jacket and poured out all the snacks inside.She and her daughter Zhang Ju picked out all the raisins, candies, and even peanuts like two hungry animals, leaving only a handful of cheap melon seeds for the child.
The child quit, cried hard, and shouted out of breath: "These are all snacks given to me by the Zhou family. Why do grandma and sister-in-law pick them up, and the grandma and sister-in-law of other children don't want them!"
Wang Fen scolded: "If you are not filial to your children and grandchildren, if you don't honor me with such a little thing, you can still honor me in the future. If you make trouble again, don't eat meat at night."
Zhang Ju also reprimanded a few words at the right time.They made so much noise that they alarmed the neighbors. The eldest son of the Wang family couldn't pretend he didn't hear it, so he came out and shouted: "That's your grandma, you should honor her, and don't eat at night if you make trouble again." Yes, you actually embarrass me."
The child refused to accept it, and even talked back, and his mother covered his mouth. The child looked up in confusion, and saw that his mother's eyes were already filled with tears. The child stopped saying anything and lowered his head. He pursed his lips and stopped crying, feeling as uncomfortable as a puppy who made a mistake.
Zhang Ju watched all the snacks go into her mother's pocket, and she only got two candies, her eyes turned green with greed.
"Mom, bring me some home-made pickles and some potatoes, and I'll go to Zhou's."
Wang Fen asked: "What are you going to do? Zhou Jing admits that he won't want you for five taels of silver, so what's the use of you going?"
Zhang Ju didn't feel ashamed when mentioning this matter, but only felt angry, and said bitterly: "It's because of this that I'm going, and I just said to pay New Year's greetings to Master Zhou, he doesn't want to see me, and he doesn't want things for peace of mind, but Mr. I went again during the Chinese New Year, and I have to order some snacks for the children. You can’t tell me to return empty-handed. We won’t be ashamed if it spreads in the future. We can say that we are just thanking the Zhou family for giving to the village. Building roads and giving some New Year’s gifts, it’s nothing to do with us if the Zhou family doesn’t accept it. Besides, there are quite a few people in the village who want to send things to the Zhou family, and it’s not our family.”
Wang Fen slapped her thigh, "That's right, my niece is smarter. In this way, others can't care about our family, and we have to say that we don't care about the previous rift, and it doesn't hurt your reputation. Just wait, Mother will pack things for you now."
There are four puppies in total, two males and two females. The puppies are not afraid of strangers when they move to a new place, and they find it fun to scurry around boldly.Trembling up to Shen Mo's knee, she sniffed his face vigorously with the tip of her tender red nose, as if she felt that his smell was not bad, she clicked her mouth twice, and slumped down on her bare nest.
He Xi was very happy to see that the little milk dog liked Shen Mo so much. For a family like Zhou Jing, if the puppy could please the owner, it would be better than those country mud legs.He secretly sighed in his heart, this little guy knows how to pick people, and he picks one right.
Shen Mo hugged the fluffy little guy gently, and it was obvious that he loved it very much. He would kiss and stick to his face for a while, and his eyes were so gentle.
"Oh..." The little guy who was sleeping soundly was suddenly picked up by the back of his neck, and his four short legs kicked wildly. His sleepy little eyes finally opened a crack, and found that he was hanging in mid-air. Immediately, they were so frightened that they all opened their small grape-like eyes and screamed even more joyfully.
"Brother Jing, you scared it." Shen Mo hurriedly jumped off the chair to rescue the little milk dog.
Zhou Jing stood upright, straightened his arms and lifted the little milk dog over his head, but Shen Mo jumped twice and couldn't reach it.Looking at him with his mouth pursed, Zhou Jing's heart itch was tickled like that, he was more wronged than a little milk dog.
He said righteously: "The dog is dirty, how can I hold it in my arms, beware of bacteria?"
"Bacteria, what is that?" Shen Mo asked confused.
He Xi also didn't know what bacteria were, but he could understand the disgust in Zhou Jinghua's words, and hurriedly said: "It's not dirty, the little milk dog is not dirty when it's just born. I don't believe you can smell the smell of milk." Well. And these little guys have been weaned, so they are easy to feed. Just give some thin rice soup every day, and after half a month, you can give some leftovers."
Farm dogs are not as expensive as the pet dogs of later generations. Many people’s dogs don’t even feed them. It's just that most of them are skinny, but it doesn't affect the housekeeping at all, and they don't bite people randomly.
Shen Mo was even more aggrieved, and the little milk dog seemed to understand, and his calf kicked even more joyously, screaming and screaming, breaking people's hearts.
Shen Mo looked like he was about to cry if he didn't return it.
Zhou Jing turned around and threw himself into the arms of Zhou Yu who was sitting beside him.
"Kids like this thing, I'll hold it for you to play with."
Zhou Yu: "..." Ah Mo isn't clean in his arms, so won't he be dirty in his arms?
Shen Mo was so angry that he stared straight at him with his beautiful Danfeng eyes.Zhou Jing actually puffed out his chest, feeling flattered, did you see that his husband was so seduced by him that he looked at him without blinking his eyes.
And He Xi seems to have vaguely understood something, Mr. Zhou doesn't seem to really dislike the dirty little milk dog, but just doesn't want Zhou Fulang to hug him, why is that?
Shen Lin was pregnant and didn't get close to the little milk dog, but secretly pouted at Wang Ren, "Stingy."
Wang Ren grinned and laughed.
In the evening, I cooked thick rice soup for the little milk dogs, which was sticky and mixed with two grains of millet. The four little milk dogs buried their heads in the bowls and drank deliciously.Among them, the one that was hugged by Shen Mo was very domineering, with twisted little buttocks, hit left and right, and knocked over the two little milk dogs on both sides at once.That's not enough, he took a few mouthfuls of rice soup, and then used his small head to push the little milk dog opposite him on all fours.Only its own little head is left in the whole small basin, so it is satisfied.
Zhou Jing pointed to the little milk dog, and said in a tone that he had seen through long ago: "Look, I'll just say it's bad!"
Shen Mo: "..."
Zhou Yu: "..."
The two women in the family: "..."
Fortunately, Shen Lin and Wang Ren left, otherwise there would be two more speechless ones.
A thick quilt was folded into four layers in the hall, and four puppies were put into the quilt and curled up with each other.
Shen Mo walked into the room and closed the door, still looking back reluctantly, "Is it okay to put them in the hall like this, will it be cold?"
"Little Mo, the living room of our house is warmer than other people's bedrooms." Zhou Jing untied his belt, took off his coat, and continued to take off his fur trousers and coat.
Seeing Zhou Jing who had stripped him naked in an instant, Shen Mo became panicked after a while, he swallowed involuntarily, his lips turned cyanotic.
"You...what are you going to do? Tomorrow...tomorrow is the New Year's Eve, and you have to get up early to be busy." The more Shen Mo spoke, the more he spoke, the less confident he became.
The enemy is strong and we are weak, it will only increase the prestige of the enemy, Zhou Jing walked up to Shen Mo with a grinning grin, and hugged the man by his legs as soon as he got low.
"You, what are you going to do?" Shen Mo felt that the scene of the little milk dog being held by the back of the neck today was reappearing, but now the weak and helpless one became him.
Throwing him on the bed, before Shen Mo could react, the majestic Zhou Jing pressed on him.One bite on Shen Mobainen's neck, obviously he was the one who was abused, but the man lay on his shoulder pitifully wronged and cried miserably: "You never took the initiative to kiss me, let alone kiss me. I've kissed it, and now I've kissed it, tell me, which one do you care more about, me or it?"
Zhou Jing's tone seemed to say in the next sentence, "With me but without it, with it without me, who do you want?"Then you should shake your head, I don't listen, I just don't listen, and I don't listen to what you say. The annual drama.
"Why don't you talk, but you talk. Who do you care about?"
Zhou Jing thought about it for a while and took a step back, begging for mercy, "Why don't you give me a kiss." He pointed to his mouth, "In this way I won't be jealous, and I can consider letting you play with it in the future."
Shen Mo's face was blushing, and his eyes were closed. Zhou Jing was like Zhou Jing, he knew it.
Zhou Jing persisted, "Are you really not close?"
no dear!
Hearing this, Shen Mo only closed his eyes even tighter, Zhou Jing laughed maliciously twice, his hands did not know what he was doing under the quilt, in short, Shen Mo opened his watery eyes, and kissed him as if death was at home. As soon as Zhou Jing's mouth touched the man's lips, he was pinched down on the bed and gnawed hungrily.
The atmosphere of the New Year's Eve is very strong, and the sound of crackling firecrackers rang intermittently at dawn.
The two women got up very early to be busy, and when Zhou Jing woke up, the room was already warmed by the fire, and an earth dragon was born.
Looking back, the little husband was sleeping soundly, his bright red cheeks were like two balls of little red apples.He possessed himself and kissed him, only to feel the infinite tenderness in his heart.This is his little husband. With him, he is no longer wandering and helpless in this other world. He has roots and lost his family. This year is the first year they have been together, and it has a special meaning.
He got up and washed his face lightly. As soon as he reached the door, the two women greeted him with smiles.
"Master, Happy New Year!"
Zhou Jing smiled and said, "Happy New Year."
Mrs. Ji said: "Master, the young master has been waiting for you in the yard for a long time. After the firecrackers are set up, we will wait for you to get up and set them off. Do you set up a meal after you let them go? Today I made wild boar porridge and lotus seed porridge, and the vegetables are spring rolls." , meat omelette, golden belly soup, dry-stir-fried mutton.”
Chinese New Year pays attention to pairing, cooking and eating are not singular.Because the evening is the highlight, these two meals during the day are very simple.
Zhou Jingdao: "I'll go and fire the cannons with Xiaoyu first, warm them up first when I set off the cannons, and eat together when Xiao Mo wakes up. By the way, don't open the door for now, the children who pay New Year's greetings will wait for Xiao Mo to wake up before letting them in. Prepare more food, if there is no food, add it quickly, so that the children who come later will not be unable to eat."
"Understood, servant girl, go down and get ready."
Zhou Jing nodded and said: "This Chinese New Year, there are only three of us in the family, regardless of whether we are slaves or maidservants. We sit at the same table and have fun. You don't have to shy away from it, it's my permission."
The master-servant system of the imperial dynasty was strict, and the servants who signed the death contract were not even as good as the beasts. The beasts were afraid of being exhausted from doing too much work, but the slaves lived and died according to the master's will.In this case, not to mention eating at the same table, you have to be a celebrity in front of the master to pick up the leftovers from the master.
But the Zhou family never treated people so harshly. They have always been allowed to eat whatever the host's family eats, as long as it is not outrageously expensive.
Now that they are allowed to serve at the table during the Chinese New Year, this is not only a matter of eating, but also treating them as human beings.Mrs. Ji hurriedly knelt down to thank her, and when she got up, her eyes were slightly red. She thought that she should not cry during the New Year, so as not to bring bad luck to the host family, so she endured it.
The little milk dogs whined and barked for food behind Zhou Jing, and Zhou Jing strode out of the room as if he didn't listen.Mrs. Ji covered her mouth and snickered, "Sister Zhang, quickly feed these little things some rice soup, so that Fulang wakes up and pesters him to ask the master to see it. I don't know why I'm going to be jealous again .”
Mrs. Zhang also laughed when she thought of Zhou Jing's inexplicable drinking of vinegar yesterday.
Zhou Yu has been playing in the yard for a long time. No matter how much he has experienced, he is still a child at heart. He made a bunch of firecrackers and put them on the ground, waiting for Zhou Jing to come and set them off together.
"father."
Zhou Jing said, "Did you let it go before?"
"No, I've seen children in the village let go."
Zhou Jingxiang's hand paused, and then he smiled and said: "It's okay, use this long incense stick for a while, hide away from it, run away as soon as the firecracker is lit, the farther the better, don't get hit by it. "
"My son knows." Zhou Yu eagerly took Chang Xiang, and when Zhou Jing released the first one, he immediately released the second one.
With two sounds of 'bang bang', the firecrackers burst out of Laogao, and they exploded in the sky.
Zhou Jing laughed and said: "Good boy, if you put it so high, it will be smooth in the coming year."
"Father too."
The father and son set off a firecracker in the yard, and Mrs. Ji came over to call for someone, saying that Shen Mo was up and waiting for them to eat, and the two entered the hall.
Shen Mo was sitting at the table, playing with the little milk dog in his arms, when he heard Zhou Jing's footsteps, he put the little milk dog on the ground like a thief, straightened his back and pretended to be doing nothing.The little milk dog whimpered and grabbed his trouser legs at his feet, and Shen Mo also acted mighty and unyielding.
Zhou Jing suppressed his smile and pretended not to notice the dog hair on his long gown. When he sat down to eat, the two women ate with the host's family, and then added two more dishes temporarily, a piece of fried pork with fungus, and a piece of squab with eggs.
Chinese New Year is very particular, every dish must have surplus, which means surplus every year.
After breakfast, the table was removed, and the big iron gate of the Zhou family was slowly opened to let the children in the village in to send auspicious blessings.
There is a custom in Wangjia Village that the children who come to the family on the New Year’s Eve come to announce the good news. The more people who go there, the better life will be in the coming year. This is why even the most stingy people in the village will prepare some cheap melon seeds fried by themselves, and grab a handful for the children who come, so as not to let the children go away empty-handed, so as not to say discouraged words.Of course, if someone is too poor, the adults in the family will specifically ask not to go, and the children will not go, after all, they will not be able to get food if they go.
In the early days of the 31st, all households with children were released, and they were allowed to pay New Year's greetings from house to house.Say a few auspicious words, exchange for wedding candy, or other food, and the food you get is the snacks for the children in their [-]s or even the first month.
So what the children look forward to most is the Chinese New Year. In order to get more snacks, the adults in the family will sew two big and deep pockets on their clothes. They often turn from the head of the village to the end of the village, and the two pockets can be filled. , children can eat for many days.
This year, the children in Wangjia Village all followed Zhou’s family without being asked by adults. They all know that Zhou’s family is rich now. On the 29th, their own family swallowed a wild boar. Wild boar is much more expensive than domestic pigs. , such a big pig will not be able to eat even after the first lunar month, and it has to be eaten all at once.The children all know that pork is delicious, and they are so greedy that they can't help but talk. They also heard from their parents that the reason why the family can still eat last year's meat this year is thanks to Mr. Zhou. Live well.
Because these children thought that going to Zhou's house would definitely get more snacks, they squatted at the gate of Zhou's house early.But waiting left and right, jumping up and down, Zhou's house just wouldn't open the door, and the children scratched their heads in anxiety. If it wasn't for the big iron gate of Zhou's house that couldn't be opened, the children would rush in in a hurry.Among them, a few ignorant ones knocked on the door impatiently, and the women did not open the door, but responded from the partition wall in the courtyard, "The master has a lot of family affairs, and the two masters are busy worshiping the ancestors. Open the door and let the children in to send auspiciousness. '
The children don't know the truth of this statement, but everyone in the Wang family village knows that the Zhou family has no ancestors to worship. Zhou Jing has betrayed the Wang family, and his parents don't even recognize him.
The children had no choice but to go to other people's homes to ask for auspiciousness. After walking around the Zhou family, they finally opened the closed iron gate and let the long-awaited children in.
"Xiaoer, Da Niu, Zhou's house is open, I saw Tie Zhu, he just came out of Zhou's house, he pretended to be a risk in both pockets, and even held a persimmon in his hand." The [-]-year-old boy jumped into Wang Fulu's house and yelled. He had a good time with Wang Fulu's four grandchildren and was a frequent visitor to Wang Fulu's house, so he was not restrained.
This year, Shen Lin was pregnant, and the Wang family specially prepared a lot of snacks, in order to attract more children, and asked a few more auspicious words for the child in Shen Lin's stomach, hoping that he would give birth to a boy in one fell swoop.
The two wives of the Wang family were so envious, thinking that Wang Fulu and his wife were not so generous when they were pregnant, they felt sour.But when Shen Lin came back at thirty that year, the sourness disappeared immediately, because the Zhou family brought back more food for Shen Lin than the Wang family prepared for the three new year's festivals combined. As for the snacks for the children, The Zhou family prepared a single for Shen Lin, but even the one from the Wang family couldn't handle it.
Although Zhuangshi had already asked for it once when he came to Wang's house for the first time in the morning, Shen Lin still smiled and grabbed him a lot when he saw him.
The two sister-in-laws of the Wang family saw that Shen Lin was a bit of a prodigal. They had to give this child auspiciousness, but they couldn't just give it to each child once they came. How could they give it.But thinking that Shen Lin didn't need to prepare anything at home, they were all brought by Zhou's family. Even if they felt distressed, they couldn't persuade Shen Lin not to give him his own things. There is no such reason .
"Happy New Year, Aunt Shen, and good luck. I also wish Aunt Shen a big fat boy who is white and fat." Zhuang Shi said a lot of auspicious words to Shen Lin.
Shen Lin smiled and said: "Auntie, I will lend you a good fortune." Now that Shen Lin's household items have made him not care about such small things, it is better to ask for some good luck.
Hao Yulan heard strong words in the kitchen and knew that they were going to Zhou's house to give auspicious gifts, but she didn't hear the two daughters-in-law's orders, so she came out and said, "Go to Zhou's house to send auspicious words, and come back after asking for some snacks. You can’t ask for others, and you can’t rely on your uncle’s relationship to open your mouth to ask for something good, you know?”
The second daughter-in-law also instructed: "Listen to grandma, if you let me know that you took something else, be careful not to share the meat with you at night."
The two children of the second daughter-in-law's family were so frightened that they patted their chests and promised that they would never want anything except snacks.
The eldest daughter-in-law saw that the younger uncle and daughter-in-law had said the same thing, so she said something casually.The two children remembered the words of their second aunt and promised that they would never take anything else.
"It's okay, you go, if the elder brother and brother-in-law give a red envelope, they will accept it, it's a face for my aunt."
The children didn't know what to do, so they looked up at Hao Yulan.
Hao Yulan said: "That's not okay, if that's the case, the children won't be allowed to go."
Shen Lin persuaded: "Mother, our two families are relatives. How can we not let the children go to the eldest brother-in-law's house to send auspiciousness during the Chinese New Year? Besides, because of my relationship, the eldest brother-in-law is the elder of the children. How can there be an elder who does not want to give up?" It's shameless to give lucky money to the younger generation. And if Xiao Yu from the eldest brother's husband's family comes to pay New Year's greetings in the future, can we just send the children away with snacks? Take advantage of the elder brother's family, and then see how much they give to the children, and I will return as much as I want."
Hao Yulan just smiled and said: "Yes, I was thinking about it just now. They are all relatives. Naturally, they are different from other people's families. They should walk around. Then you guys will receive another red envelope, and you can't ask for anything else."
Only then did the five children leave happily.
When I arrived at Zhou's house, I found that the children in the main room had lined up. Almost all the children in Wangjia Village were waiting here.
Da Niu, the eldest grandson of the Wang family, said in amazement: "Why are there so many people, what snacks are they giving?"
As soon as I asked, a few children happily walked over with their pockets in their hands.
Zhuang Zhu pointed to their pockets in surprise and said: "Look, they each have a persimmon, raisins and candied fruit. Those things are very expensive. I begged my mother for several days before he bought me a small handful. It's just that she and her father are still reluctant to eat, and leave it to me and my sister."
"Ah, so what should we do? We can't handle such expensive snacks. If we come so late, we won't be able to get them." Daniel asked worriedly.
Who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, Mrs. Ji saw the four of them as soon as she passed by the courtyard.Those who are servants of other people understand the mind of the master's family better than the master's family, and they all know how much Shen Mo values his younger brother, so Mrs. Ji pays special attention to Shen Lin's husband's family.In the first few days after returning to the village, Mrs. Ji inquired about the Wang family and got to know the members of the Wang family inside and out.Now it was obvious at a glance that these auspicious children belonged to the Wang family, so they rushed up in two steps.
"The four of you are the nephews and nieces of Mrs. Shen's family. Come with me."
"Ah?" The children froze for a moment, still not understanding what was going on, and followed Mrs. Ji out of the long queue in a foolish manner.
There were a few older children who knew something in the team. Seeing that the four children of the Wang family were led by Mrs. Ji to beg for snacks first, they were also worried that the good snacks would be robbed, so they yelled: "We came first, and we waited for a long time. How can we let them jump in line first?"
The four children were also quite polite. They felt that they were late and asked for a limited number of good snacks. This was equivalent to snatching snacks from the children who lined up first, so they lowered their heads in shame and wanted to go back to the queue.But Mrs. Ji grabbed her arm.
Mrs. Ji didn't reprimand the child, nor gave him any shame, but just explained lightly: "This is the nephew and niece of my master Zhou Fulang, his uncle is my husband's brother, no matter what, there are no nephews and nieces." Going to Uncle’s house still needs to queue up.”
The main reason is that the Zhou family did not live in Wangjia Village for the second half of the year, so the children who were already forgetful only had the impression of the Zhou family as the rich and noble, and completely forgot about the relatives of the Zhou family and the Wang family. relation.
Those older children remembered what Mrs. Ji said, shut up and dared not say any more.After all, it is right to give all good things to nephews and nieces and not give them to children from other families. For a while, I was afraid that those four children would get nothing if they sued their uncle.The older children felt a little regretful.
Mrs. Ji said: "Don't make trouble, and say auspicious words when you go in. If you have some, you will be the last one. Our master doesn't take this small snack seriously, it's just for auspiciousness .”
The rest of the children were relieved.And the four children of the Wang family were no longer guilty of following Mrs. Ji, and only after thinking of the reminders from their uncle and grandma at home did they fully realize that the old man who lived in this noble compound was their uncle.
"Fu Lang, the four children of the Wang family have come to send auspicious gifts, so I asked me to bring them in first."
The four children spoke sweetly, and immediately shouted: "Hello, Uncle, I wish Uncle a happy New Year, good luck and prosperity, and give birth to a little brother for us as soon as Uncle."
Shen Mo knew that the uncle they were talking about was Shen Lin, so he said this to his heart, and said with a smile: "These four backpacks are for you, and they are full of snacks. Let's carry one back to eat. There are red envelopes, one for each person."
Daniu is the biggest and the most sensible. He remembers his grandma's order and refuses to ask for more.
"How can the four of you be the same as the other children? You are all my nephews and nieces. Do you think you can be the same as them?"
Daniel was confused by Shen Mo, and he accepted what he said made sense.
Shen Mo asked Mrs. Ji to call Zhou Yu out, and introduced him: "This is your big brother, from uncle's family. You have met big brother, let him give you red envelopes."
Seeing that the four children were obviously dressed differently from them, as luxurious as Zhou Yu who walked down from the painting, he was a little cautious, and called out timidly: "Big brother."
Zhou Yu calmly distributed red envelopes to everyone, and let them go with a few nice words in a slow voice.
The eyes of the children queuing up were red with envy, and Zhuo Shi, who was passing by and still queuing up, was very unsatisfied.
Tie Zhu was the grandson of Wang Fen's family who was the first to get snacks. He walked home happily with a persimmon in his pocket. The sharp-eyed Wang Fen saw him as soon as he entered the door.
He scolded sharply, "You son of a bitch, who didn't learn well at such a young age, you actually learned to be a thief and dared to steal food from the house. You know how expensive these dried persimmons are, a box of six costs tens of dollars, I can't even bear to eat them Save it as a gift in the future, if you dare to steal it out to eat, see if I don’t beat you to death!”
After cursing, the child couldn't help explaining, so he slapped the child on the back several times, making the child cry out loud.
The daughter-in-law who was busy in the house heard the cry of the child, and hurried out to stop her: "Mother, what are you doing beating the child during Chinese New Year?"
Relying on her status as sister-in-law, Zhang Ju is Wang Fen's own daughter, and usually gossips in Wang Fen's ears, and also shows embarrassment to this sister-in-law.
Now that there are witnesses and evidences again, she directly reprimanded her sister-in-law: "Look at the good son you have taught. He didn't learn well at a young age. He learned to steal things at such a young age. That persimmon is so expensive. How expensive is it?" You can only buy six of them for ten big bucks, and my mother saved the New Year's gift for me when I got married after the next year, but she asked your son to steal it. How do you think it will be settled?"
Zhang's daughter-in-law was stunned. She didn't expect her son to steal such expensive food. Now Zhang Ju asked her what to do, but she didn't know what to do.All the money earned by her head of the family was handed over to the public and given to her mother-in-law. It was useless for them to have a big son in their hands, so how could they compensate them.If you don't accompany her for a year, she and her son will never live a happy life!
At this time, the child wiped away his tears and choked with sobs: "It's not that I stole grandma. I went to Zhou's house, and Zhou Fulang rewarded us with snacks. Each child has a piece of dried persimmon, as well as raisins and other preserved fruits."
Zhang Ju said meanly: "This child is lying, and he is gone. Such expensive food can be used as snacks for you children. Calculated on the basis of the head, how much would it cost? If there is gold and silver in the family!"
The daughter-in-law of the Zhang family knows her own child well, and she knows what her own son is like, so she won't lie about this kind of thing.
"Sister-in-law, I know the son I gave birth to. He won't lie. Mother, why don't you go back to the house and have a look. If you still have a lot of persimmons, then this snack was brought back by the child from the Zhou family. Now the Zhou family It’s not impossible if it’s developed.”
Wang Fen didn't believe it, but in order to silence her daughter-in-law, she went into the house to have a look.While walking, he cursed: "The Zhou family is not stupid, why would they give such expensive snacks for no reason. Look, I'll show you if there are less, you two won't even want to have New Year's Eve dinner this year..."
Wang Fen angrily opened the curtain and saw that there were six dried persimmons, and they were all there.He was stunned for a long time before he realized it, and rushed out quickly.
"What kind of snacks did the Zhou family give you back?" said without waiting for the child's answer, and went to rummage through the child's pocket.
Seeing that there were indeed raisins and preserved fruits inside, he immediately took off the child's cotton-padded jacket and poured out all the snacks inside.She and her daughter Zhang Ju picked out all the raisins, candies, and even peanuts like two hungry animals, leaving only a handful of cheap melon seeds for the child.
The child quit, cried hard, and shouted out of breath: "These are all snacks given to me by the Zhou family. Why do grandma and sister-in-law pick them up, and the grandma and sister-in-law of other children don't want them!"
Wang Fen scolded: "If you are not filial to your children and grandchildren, if you don't honor me with such a little thing, you can still honor me in the future. If you make trouble again, don't eat meat at night."
Zhang Ju also reprimanded a few words at the right time.They made so much noise that they alarmed the neighbors. The eldest son of the Wang family couldn't pretend he didn't hear it, so he came out and shouted: "That's your grandma, you should honor her, and don't eat at night if you make trouble again." Yes, you actually embarrass me."
The child refused to accept it, and even talked back, and his mother covered his mouth. The child looked up in confusion, and saw that his mother's eyes were already filled with tears. The child stopped saying anything and lowered his head. He pursed his lips and stopped crying, feeling as uncomfortable as a puppy who made a mistake.
Zhang Ju watched all the snacks go into her mother's pocket, and she only got two candies, her eyes turned green with greed.
"Mom, bring me some home-made pickles and some potatoes, and I'll go to Zhou's."
Wang Fen asked: "What are you going to do? Zhou Jing admits that he won't want you for five taels of silver, so what's the use of you going?"
Zhang Ju didn't feel ashamed when mentioning this matter, but only felt angry, and said bitterly: "It's because of this that I'm going, and I just said to pay New Year's greetings to Master Zhou, he doesn't want to see me, and he doesn't want things for peace of mind, but Mr. I went again during the Chinese New Year, and I have to order some snacks for the children. You can’t tell me to return empty-handed. We won’t be ashamed if it spreads in the future. We can say that we are just thanking the Zhou family for giving to the village. Building roads and giving some New Year’s gifts, it’s nothing to do with us if the Zhou family doesn’t accept it. Besides, there are quite a few people in the village who want to send things to the Zhou family, and it’s not our family.”
Wang Fen slapped her thigh, "That's right, my niece is smarter. In this way, others can't care about our family, and we have to say that we don't care about the previous rift, and it doesn't hurt your reputation. Just wait, Mother will pack things for you now."
