Yang Yongjin said: "My eldest brother's child is visiting my grandmother-in-law in Baojia Village. Is this a happy event?"
Cao Bamei was startled for a moment, then smiled.
It is a custom in this area for a grandson to visit his grandfather's house, so it is not a rare thing.
The three sisters, Xiuxiu and my brother, all came to visit the Sun family!
I'm here to show off!
"It's not me who is instigating the discord. Your father, this is about your eldest brother and his family. It stinks." She said.
Yang Yongjin said: "You are not sowing discord, you are telling the truth. My father is like this. In the past, his mind was biased towards the creaking hole, and then it was biased towards the belly button, and now I am afraid it is biased towards the soles of the feet!"
Both Cao Bamei and Luo Baobao were amused. The atmosphere in the room was particularly light. Even the baby in the cradle seemed to be infected by the lightness and began to babble.
After putting the baby boy to sleep, Cao Bamei went to the kitchen to cook.
A common problem among children is that if they are allowed to eat at their own homes, they will not eat well.
But it would be much more exciting if they can join in the fun with their friends.
A simple bowl of fried rice with eggs, and a bowl of potato chips that were cooked to a light golden crust. Several children ate together until the bottom of the bowl was gone.
"It's over. We are so good at eating. What if my second uncle and aunt don't have to eat now?" Luo Baobao asked with a smile.
Feng'er raised his head, with a grain of rice still stuck on his cheek.
"Yeah, the rice bowl has really bottomed out. What should I do if my second uncle and my second aunt are going to be hungry?"
Cao Bamei smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll cook noodles for your uncle to eat. You can just eat what you have. As long as you like it, Second Aunt will be happy."
…
While having breakfast, Yang Huazhong saw a rice noodle cake as white as snow on the table, with a red plum blossom stamen printed on the surface.
"Where does this come from? Our family hasn't ground rice milk in the past two days!" he asked.
I picked one up and took a bite, nodding my head again and again. It was sour, sweet, and delicious!
Mrs. Sun came over with steamed sweet potatoes and said with a smile: "This was sent by Mei Ying this morning as a gift in return for her children's visit to Grandma Ga's house in Liaojia Village two days ago."
When their grandchildren come to visit, in order to express their concern, Ga Po's family will prepare these rice cakes in advance and let them take them back when they leave and distribute them to relatives and neighbors.
"This rice cake is well made. Look, the holes inside are all opened. It tastes very delicious." Mrs. Sun also took one in her hand, broke off a small piece and ate it.
"I brought breakfast to my parents in the morning, and also brought them two rice cakes. When I saw it, my mother also put a few rice cakes on the table. It was probably Mei Ying who sent them." Mrs. Sun added.
Yang Huazhong nodded, "Liao Meiying is the only daughter in the Liao family. She survived a narrow escape and finally gave birth to a grandson. The two elders of the Liao family also value this grandson very seriously. Naturally, the return gifts for this grandson's visit are also very generous. Rice cakes are 80% There are other subsidies as well.”
Speaking of subsidies, Mrs. Sun suddenly thought of something, but didn't know whether to say it.
Yang Huazhong saw Sun's hesitant look and asked, "Just say what you have to say. It's easy to get into trouble if you keep it in your heart. I'm not an outsider either!"
Sun said: "Dad Qing'er, do you still remember that on the night of the first day of the first lunar month, dad gathered people from several rooms in the Yang family to discuss raising money for Mei'er?"
Yang Huazhong said: "Why don't you remember? It's only been a few days! Why are you bringing this up?"
Mrs. Sun then lowered her voice and said, "Then do you still remember what Yongxian donated?"
Yang Huazhong said without thinking: "I must remember it. They are a pair of small silver bracelets that Xiu'er wore during his lifetime."
At that time, everyone donated money, and Yongxian's pair of silver bracelets were actually worth four taels of silver, so Yang Huazhong was deeply impressed.
Sun said: "If I said that the pair of silver bracelets are still in the hands of Yongxian and the others, would you believe it?"
"Letter...what? What did you say? The silver bracelet is back again?"
Yang Huazhong habitually said the word "letter". What is the most important thing for a couple who have been married for nearly thirty years?
trust!
"What do you mean when you say you took the silver bracelet back? Could it be that Yongxian regretted it later and took it back from his father?" Yang Huazhong asked.
Mrs. Sun shook her head: "It's probably because his father felt sorry for him. Afterwards, he took off the silver bracelet and gave it back to Yongxian privately."
Yang Huazhong said nothing, sitting there with a frown on his face.
"Mother, are you sure that the bracelets you saw are the ones donated by Ye Yongxian? Are you mistaken?" He asked again.
After hearing what Yang Huazhong said, Sun was a little unsure.
"Otherwise, when you have time to go to Mei'er's place to see Dabai, you can set up a trap with Mei'er," he said.
Mrs. Sun nodded: "Sure, I happened to have an appointment with Suyun yesterday to take a look at Dabai. I'll ask Mei'er if I have a chance."
Lao Wang's family.
Yang Huamei accompanied Sun and Bao Suyun to Dabai's house to see Dabai.
Dabai was lying on the bed, with one leg fixed in a plaster and hanging on the bed. Because of the difficulty in moving, he was numb.
When he saw Sun and Bao Suyun coming in, he was a little embarrassed, so he pulled the quilt and covered his head.
Yang Huamei said: "What are you doing with your head covered? Third aunt and fifth aunt are here to see you. Call someone quickly!"
Dabai's muffled voice came from under the quilt: "Third aunt, fifth aunt."
Sun and Bao Suyun looked at each other and smiled.
I asked a few questions about Dabai's situation like a formality, and the result was to keep it first.
After standing in front of the bed for a while, Yang Huamei quickly called them to the main room to drink tea.
"Where are your father-in-law and Shuanzi Xiaohei?"
Bao Suyun asked after sitting down.
Yang Huamei said: "It has been snowing the past few days, and I haven't even gone to my two aunts' house to pay New Year greetings. The two aunts and their families came over on the first day of the new year. It just happened that the snow stopped, so the three of them went to my aunt's house together. Eat it, sister."
"I have to stay at home to take care of Dabai, and I can't go anywhere. That boy Dabai is still ignorant. I blame them for not taking him, and he is sulking with me!"
While speaking, Yang Huamei had already made tea for Sun and Bao Suyun and brought it to them.
Bao Suyun took the tea and said: "Dabai really shouldn't be sulking with you. It's not you who's holding him back because he can't go out to pay New Year greetings, but it's him who's holding you back that you can't go out to visit relatives."
Yang Huamei smiled bitterly: "That's the truth, but you can't say this. Who makes him the son and me the mother!"
Sun said: "I have the same attitude as Suyun. Although we are all distressed by what happened to Dabai, if we think about it carefully, this child is also in trouble because of his own disobedience. Is it possible that he is still sulking with you now?" Could it be that he punched and kicked you twice before and forgot about it? Didn’t he regret and apologize to you for what happened before? "
