"If you are poor in the busy city and no one cares about you, if you are rich in the mountains you have distant relatives, that's how people are. Not to mention Uncle Daniu's family, isn't it the same with our family!" Yang Ruoqing said.
"Once upon a time when we were separated, Uncle Geng, Uncle Daniu, Fifth Uncle and our second cousin came over to help us repair the house and gave us rice grains and old hen chili sauce."
"What now?"
"The hens in our backyard can't lay eggs, so a lot of people come over to ask for help and make friends!" Yang Ruoqing said with a smile.
This is a bit exaggerated, but the reality is not much different from this.
Sun and Yang Huazhong looked at each other and both smiled dumbly.
Sun asked Yang Ruoqing with a doting look on her face: "Okay, I've said everything that needs to be said. Are you satisfied with it?"
Yang Ruoqing smiled playfully and hugged Sun's arm as coquettishly as she did before leaving the cabinet.
Sun's face was even more loving, and she raised her hand to gently rub Yang Ruoqing's hair: "It's getting late. If you plan to stay here to sleep, mother will make a bed for you."
"Mom, I'd better go back to sleep. I'll be unhappy when that little Luo baby gets up early tomorrow morning and can't see her." Yang Ruoqing said.
Sun said: "Then, let your father take you back."
Beside, Yang Huazhong has been waiting.
Yang Ruoqing knew that no matter how powerful she was or how good she was at night walking, she couldn't refuse in front of her parents.
"OK!"
Accepting it happily is the best feedback for your parents’ care.
…
The Sun family held a banquet, and there were ten banquet tables in the courtyard and in the main room.
This is not enough, far from enough to greet the villagers who come to congratulate them.
Because these villagers take care of their families.
As a result, the yard of Yang Huazhou's house next door to Sun's house was also borrowed for banquets, and ten more tables were opened.
All kinds of chicken, duck, fish, and whole lamb elbows are all served to the table.
From day to night, the sound of firecrackers at the door is endless.
Children from the whole village gathered here, busy looking for the lucky remaining small firecrackers in the ashes of the firecrackers.
Once you pick it up, you put it in your pocket like a treasure. This will become something you can show off to your friends!
The only nephew of her parents' family passed the exam. This news made Sun's aunt no less happy than when her son won the top prize.
In addition to sending a thick congratulatory gift, Mrs. Sun was also busy helping with the banquet.
The same goes for Yang Ruoqing, her cousin. She gave generous gifts and brought her own apron to help.
Seeing their mother and daughter like this, Mrs. Sun felt moved and felt sorry at the same time.
"Really speaking, you two should come here as guests and have a real banquet, but here you come to the backyard to help..." Da Sun said.
Sun smiled and said, "Sister, what's our relationship? Are we still worried about that?"
On this trip to Sunjiagou, there were about ten or twenty people who were close relatives and friends, including Cui'er's father and mother.
The men from Sunjiagou had a banquet, and the women came to help. But there were more than twenty banquets, and the few women from Sunjiagou alone would definitely not be able to handle them.
So Sun and Yang Ruoqing took Xiaohua, Xiaoduo, Juer, Zhao Liuer and the others to the battle.
They don't lack Xiaoqin Yuzhi Osmanthus, so the backyard is still very tolerant.
Da Sun said: "I think there are enough people in the backyard. Sister, you go sit at the table and have real wine later!"
Mrs. Sun smiled and shook her head and said: "Even if I have enough people, I can't sit at the table in the front yard. Sister, you can ask some sisters-in-law from Sunjiagou to have a banquet in the front yard later."
"Although they are relatives of the Sun family, it is not easy to travel all the way from Sunjiagou over the mountains and ridges. They are distant guests."
Da Sun thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go there later."
Here, Yang Ruoqing also said: "Auntie, just go and do your work. My mother was so happy that she didn't sleep all night last night. She said that her nephew is promising and has become more energetic!"
Mrs. Sun laughed, and Mrs. Sun also laughed.
"Hey, the good times have finally come, but it's a pity that Qing'er Gapo..."
Yang Ruoqing quickly interrupted the eldest Sun's words, "People have to look forward. Today is a great day, and eldest aunt should be happy."
Mrs. Sun suppressed her sadness and smiled, "Okay, I'll go over there first and get busy!"
Huang Mao, with a pregnant belly of more than seven months, was also busy greeting the female relatives.
At the women's table, there was a well-dressed horse-faced woman sitting there, cracking melon seeds, drinking tea, and talking to other women around her.
However, after a few words, the women who were sitting next to her gradually moved away from her, or turned their heads to chat with other people at the table.
Gradually, the horse-faced woman sat there alone, looking as if she had been left out.
Someone at another table nearby noticed this phenomenon.
A young daughter-in-law asked her companion in a low voice: "Whose family does that horse-faced aunt on the table belong to? She looks strange, I've never seen her before."
The companion on the side said: "Who knows, sitting there talking big words, no matter whether it is tea, melon seeds or snacks on the table, they are not as good as what she has eaten. If this is the case, why come here to have a banquet? Why? Go home and brag!"
The young daughter-in-law was surprised: "I didn't expect that there is a relative like this in the Sun family? Could it be that they came from the Sun family?"
Someone else at the table said: "Life in Sunjiagou is even worse than in our Changping Village. The horse-faced aunt's dress is obviously that of a housekeeper from a wealthy family, but her words are really a bit mean. No one at her table paid any attention to her."
The two young wives covered their mouths and snickered, and the others at the table were also winking. Everyone was watching the joke of the horse-faced woman at the table with great interest.
"Ahem..."
Huang Mao, with his big belly, happened to pass by the table.
The two young wives who were covering their mouths and snickering quickly stood up and supported Huang Mao: "Daughter-in-law Dajie, you have such a big belly, why do you come out to greet the guests? Come on, come on, sit down and take a breath."
Huang Mao used to be in the village and was acquainted with these two young wives, and they were on equal footing with them.
At most, it's because Dajie has a scholar status and Huang Mao is a scholar's wife.
However, most of the scholars of this era were poor, and the scholar's wife was nothing special when she walked outside.
But from the moment when Dajie passed the exam, Huang Mao suddenly became taller in the eyes of the village women and became the wife of the master who held the exam.
So the two young wives who were equal to Huang Mao in the past quickly helped Huang Mao sit down, one on the left and the other on the right.
Huang Mao was not pretentious, and took advantage of the situation to sit here for a while, then leaned into the ears of the two young wives and whispered: "That horse-faced woman is my aunt who has not moved around for several years. Please be more patient..." "
The two young wives were a little embarrassed.
The two of them looked at each other, not knowing that Uncle Daniu's family in the village had such a relative.
Huang Mao stood up again, smiled and said to everyone at the table: "Everyone has tea and snacks. You're welcome. I'll go over there to greet you again."
