The Chen family was very lively on this day, because of Chen Mo, Shen Qingrou, and the little girl Shen Xingluo.
The smile on Yang Xiaorong's face did not disappear all day long, so much so that at night, she felt her face cramped.
"How's it going? Are you feeling proud today?"
Chen Zhenbang was sitting on the sofa and joking. He was also very happy and felt very comfortable.
You must know that in the past five years, during the Chinese New Year, the family seemed very aggrieved in front of other relatives, and could not even say a few words.
Today, his son went home to celebrate the New Year, along with his daughter-in-law and lovely granddaughter!
After hearing this, Yang Xiaorong puffed up her chest: "That's right, I have such an excellent daughter-in-law and granddaughter to support me. It's worth putting the coffin board on me now."
"Bah, bah, bah, you old lady, what are you talking about during the Chinese New Year? I still have to watch Luoluo grow into a beautiful girl!"
"Yes, yes, grandma, you will definitely live a long life, and so will grandpa!"
Shen Xingluo threw herself into Yang Xiaorong's arms and said crisply.
The latter smiled happily and kissed her granddaughter on the face: "Yes, grandma will definitely live a long life. If she doesn't watch Luoluo grow up to be a big girl, grandma will not be willing to leave."
"Well, uncle and aunt are in very good health and will only get younger as they live."
The smile on Shen Qingrou's face remained unchanged. Although she was very busy today, she felt very warm and relaxed, just like she used to at home.
Who would have thought that Yang Xiaorong would have a serious face at this moment: "Qingrou, why do you still call me aunt? I've been waiting for you to change your tune for a long time."
"Ah? This...aunt, I...my...mom~~~"
"Hey! My good girl, I am so happy today. Old man, did you hear me? Qingrou changed her mind. Go to the room and take out the small box... Forget it, I'd better go by myself!"
Saying that, Yang Xiaorong walked into the room happily, but Chen Zhenbang looked directly at Shen Qingrou at this time.
Although it was very impolite to stare at his daughter-in-law like this, he had been looking forward to it for a long time. After hearing the word "Dad" as light as a mosquito, his face wrinkled and he excitedly took out his clothes from his pocket. He took out a red envelope.
"Qingrou, this is uncle...this is a little bit of dad's wishes, please accept it quickly."
"Well, you old man, you dare to hide your private money without telling me, it's confiscated!"
Just when Chen Zhenbang handed over the red envelope, Yang Xiaorong walked out holding the small box and immediately took the red envelope into his hand. But then she opened the box, took out an exquisite red envelope, and handed it over together with the red envelope she had snatched: "Qingrou, this is the change fee that mom and dad gave you. It's not much, but you have to accept it!"
"Well, thank you mom, thank you dad."
The second time they were called like this, Shen Qingrou was no longer so embarrassed. She stretched out her hands to take the red envelope, and then put it into her pocket very carefully.
She is not short of this little money, but she must accept the two red envelopes. This is not only a sign of affection, but also mutual recognition.
For a time, an atmosphere of happiness permeated the small living room, and the family of five laughed continuously, which gradually stopped until eleven o'clock in the evening.
In the next few days, the family visited several relatives as agreed in previous years.
It was not until the sixth day of the first lunar month that Chen Mocai and Shen Qingrou left their hometown in Songcheng with their daughter Luoluo and returned to Shenyuan again.
Seeing Shen Qianshan and Han Yue, Chen Mo thought for a moment and blurted out the word 'parents', which stunned the former: "What did you call me, you brat?"
However, Han Yue was very happy and took out the red envelope she had prepared: "Hey, this is the change fee from mom, keep it."
Seeing that his wife had already paid for the correction of her confession, Shen Qianshan muttered a few words to himself, and then took out a red envelope from his pocket: "Here, this is the correction fee that I prepared for you. I knew that this time I would be gentle." Something big is going to happen when I get home with you, let’s talk about it, when are you going to hold the wedding?”
"I want to wait for this. I owe Qingrou five years, so I want to prepare a grand wedding myself!"
"Okay, I like what you said very much. If you need any help, just go to Binghe." Shen Qianshan nodded with satisfaction after hearing this. Although he was still stiff on the lips, he had already agreed in his heart.
Whatever the agreement was, he actually didn't take it seriously for a long time. The reason why he didn't cancel it was just to send a warning to Chen Mo.
That night, Shen Binghe chatted with Chen Mo all night long. He didn't say anything else, but just introduced the other members of the past three generations of the Shen family to the latter again, so that there wouldn't be any big problems at the family gathering the day after tomorrow.
Han Yue pulled her daughter into the room and asked, "Qingrou, are you guys living together when you go home with Chen Mo this time?"
Shen Qingrou's face suddenly turned red and she said coquettishly, "Mom, what are you talking about? I'm not ready yet, but he proposed to me and I agreed."
As she spoke, she raised the diamond ring she wore on her left middle finger.
The corner of Han Yue's mouth twitched. This was the first time she had encountered such a thing. The child was almost five years old, she also received a marriage certificate, and finally the proposal came. The whole process was completely backwards.
But she was still very satisfied, which showed that Chen Mo truly treated her daughter, and that was enough.
Time passed by, and on the eighth day of the first lunar month, because the family gathering was at the old house, the whole family set off from Shenyuan in the car early in the morning.
After an hour and a half of journey, we finally returned to the Shen family's old house.
The Shen family's old house is a large courtyard house. There are more than fifty rooms in total, including the south room, the north room, the back room and the east and west wing rooms, covering an area of more than 4,000 square meters.
Not many people live there in normal times. Everyone has their own house outside, and they only come back to stay during New Year gatherings or family gatherings. Shen Qianshan's lineage belongs to the family head's lineage, so naturally he lives in the north house (main house), while Shen Zhenggang sits alone in the entire rear courtyard.
"Uncle Zhong, we are back!"
"Hahaha, old man, I've been looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally I've got you, the head of the house, back. The old man got home yesterday afternoon and is asleep right now."
Uncle Zhong, whose real name is Chen Zhong, is the housekeeper of the old house. He usually lives in the old house and takes care of everything in the old house.
Shen Qianshan nodded and reached out to hold Uncle Zhong: "Uncle Zhong has worked really hard these years. He has kept the old house in order and saved us a lot of trouble."
"What are you talking about? Old man, I had no relatives at the beginning. It was the old man who took me in. Isn't it natural for me to take care of my own home?" Chen Zhong reached out and patted Shen Qianshan's shoulder. Then his eyes moved to Chen Mo and Shen Xingluo, "Are these the uncle and the young lady?"
"Hello, Uncle Zhong, just call me Xiao Mo. Luo Luo, call me Grandpa Zhong."
"Hello Grandpa Zhong, my name is Shen Xingluo. Grandpa Zhong, you can call me Luoluo!"
The little girl's crisp voice made Chen Zhong laugh heartily. He knelt down and pinched his little face: "Luo Luo is so cute. Come on, Grandpa Zhong will take you to eat something delicious."
"Is there something delicious? Grandpa Zhong, I want to go, let's go quickly!"
When she heard that there was delicious food, the little girl quickly held Chen Zhong's hand and refused to let go without saying anything.
The latter had a kind face, took Shen Xingluo's hand and walked to the east wing, but thought of something and stopped and looked at Chen Mo: "Xiao Mo, today's meal is a bit unpalatable, you have to be mentally prepared. !”
(To be continued!)
