"If it's really not convenient for you to say it, just say it another day." Shuan Ziniang said.
Mrs. Liu also glanced at the two children over there, and thought to herself, this mother Shuanzi is really like this, who has no children, and must keep an eye on them so closely?
When she went out in the morning, the fourth child went to a restaurant in the town. As soon as the door was locked, Kang Xiaozi and San Yatou were locked in the room to sleep.
"I have locked up my children at home. It's okay. Look at you for being so nervous." Madam Liu curled her lips in dissatisfaction.
Mother Shuanzi just smiled honestly and did not argue. She squatted there picking vegetables and glanced at Da Bai and Xiao Hei playing in the yard from time to time.
Seeing this, Ms. Liu had no choice but to compromise. She took the pony and sat down on her butt. Then she told Shuanzi Niang in a low voice.
"Ms. Shuanzi, I'm here to remind you that you have to make preparations in the past two days. I have a big gift to give."
"Big gift? What big gift?" Shuanzi Niang looked confused.
During the first lunar month, the second child of the second daughter-in-law's family came to visit. Lao Wang's family was the grandfather's family, so according to the rules, they had to make good preparations.
Money for meeting the children, gifts in return, etc. However, my daughter-in-law Meier said that now the two children at home are getting older and the expenses are increasing day by day.
All other aspects must be streamlined.
Therefore, the old Wang family reduced the gift for the second daughter's second child, which made the second daughter Wang Cuihua feel somewhat dissatisfied.
It has been more than three months since the first month of the year, and I have only returned to my parents' home.
"Where's the big gift? His fourth aunt, please explain it more clearly." Mother Shuanzi asked again.
Mrs. Liu said: "Mother Mei, the grandma of the twins, she will have her fifty-eighth birthday in two days. Tell me, if this is not a big gift, what is a big gift?"
"ah?"
Mother Shuanzi was even more surprised, "Isn't my mother-in-law's birthday just next year? Why did she do this in advance?"
Mrs. Liu said: "I will do it next year, and I will do it this year, for two years in a row. This year, Brother Wenxuan will come over to do it."
"Oh, that's how it is"
Mother Shuanzi fell silent, her eyes moving wildly, obviously thinking about this matter.
It happened that Yang Huamei came from the backyard after drying her clothes. Mrs. Liu's eyes lit up and she stood up hurriedly and waved to Yang Huamei.
"Mei'er, come here, I have a big happy event to tell you!" Mrs. Liu said.
"What's the big happy event?" Yang Huamei asked.
Mrs. Liu told Yang Huamei what she had just said to Shuan Zi Niang.
After hearing this, Yang Huamei's first reaction was happiness, "Wow, Brother Wenxuan is really generous. He is so kind to my mother. He really acts like a nephew."
Mrs. Liu said, "That's right. Your fourth brother told me this last night."
"If a nephew goes to such great lengths to host a banquet, we, as sons, daughters-in-law, and daughters, will naturally have to do the same. This gift must be generously prepared, otherwise it won't be justified."
Hearing this, the smile on Yang Huamei's face cooled down slightly.
"A generous gift?"
She frowned subconsciously, and then relaxed.
Because she didn't want Ms. Liu to find out anything.
"Well, I understand. I will prepare it. Fourth sister-in-law, if you have nothing else to do, please go back first." Yang Huamei directly issued an eviction order.
Mrs. Liu's goal had been achieved, so she hurriedly left and went to talk to her next relative about the matter.
In the yard here, Yang Huamei stood there, frowning.
Shuanzi's mother didn't say a word and continued to pick vegetables while sitting on the floor. Shuanzi's father was now in charge of the accounts of this family, and all the money was in his hands.
Let's think about how to give this 'big gift' later.
Anyway, Mother Shuanzi has made up her mind. When my grandson comes to visit, you, the aunt, are trying to keep it simple.
Well, now that it's your mother's birthday, the gifts are light and heavy, and I, the mother-in-law, have to come and check it.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law each had their own plans in mind, so they went about their separate ways tacitly.
Mrs. Liu is like a magpie. She spends the whole day running around with her relatives to announce the good news.
However, the whole day brought nothing but joy to the relatives.
Many relatives are whispering privately that this is the time for spring plowing and the fields are busy.
It's only been two or three months since the New Year, and the family's money and everything else have been spent about the same amount. Now that I'm getting a big gift, it's a bit disruptive.
Everyone is waiting and watching
The honest person Sun has already begun to prepare generous gifts for Tan.
Also honest are the Sun family. The eldest Sun also plans to go to town the next day to prepare birthday gifts for his mother-in-law.
However, just when the gastrodia was bright, Yang Huamei returned to her parents' home in tears, carrying a bag of clothes.
At that time, Lao Yangtou was rinsing his mouth in the yard at the door, and Mrs. Tan was combing her hair in the house. Yang Huamei ran into the yard crying, which shocked Lao Yangtou.
When Sun and Yang Ruoqing got the news and rushed to Lao Yang's old house, Yang Huaming was scolding Liu in the west room opposite.
In the east room, Yang Huamei was sitting on Tan's bed with her clothes on, her eyes red and swollen like peach.
On one forehead, there is a red envelope the size of a broad bean.
Mrs. Tan was sitting by the bed, cursing the old Wang family and Wang Shuanzi in a hundred different words.
Lao Yangtou put his hands behind his back and walked around the room holding a dry tobacco pole, also with a dark look on his face.
In the room, there were no other bystanders except Zhao Liuer who was standing by the bed, at a loss as to how to persuade her.
The arrival of Sun and Yang Ruoqing made Zhao Liuer feel like he was being amnesty.
"Third Aunt, Qing'er, you are finally here. Come and persuade Mei'er. I have been crying for a while." Zhao Liu'er said and quickly stepped aside.
Mrs. Sun came to the bedside, and Mrs. Tan sat there and scolded her. Mrs. Sun couldn't get over it.
Yang Ruoqing pulled Sun aside and asked her and Zhao Liuer to stand aside and stop messing around, because at this time, Tan was a volcano that could erupt at any time.
"Auntie, what's going on? Did you quarrel with Uncle Shuanzi?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
Yang Huamei lowered her head, crying until her eyes and nose were red.
She wrung the handkerchief vigorously with both hands and remained silent no matter how Yang Ruoqing asked her.
Next to him, Mr. Tan was cursing with his eyes closed. There were a hundred ways to die, but he couldn't understand the cause and effect of the matter.
Yang Ruoqing asked a few questions but couldn't figure it out, so she turned around and asked Lao Yangtou.
Lao Yangtou stopped and said: "I don't know the details. I just jumped in and hugged your breasts and cried. She said that Lao Wang's family bullied her and she couldn't live her life."
"Ah?" Yang Ruoqing opened her eyes wide, "What about the quarrel between the four uncles and the four aunts in the room opposite? Is it related to this?"
Old Yangtou said: "I don't know what's going on. Your fourth uncle and your aunt have been having small quarrels for three days and one big quarrel for five days. There is no peace in the family."
