The day after tomorrow is May Day, which is also the wedding day for Zhou Zhigao and Su Mang. The banquet will be held at the guest house where Zhou Zhicheng, Xiangyu and the others got married.
The Zhou family and the Su family are both prominent figures in the capital. Zhou Guangyi has retired, and his subordinates at the time also hold important positions. What's more, his in-law Zhang Poyue is now the commander of the Shimen District Military Region, so Zhou Guangyi alone There must be at least twenty tables of guests at home.
Su Aiguo is now the deputy director of the military hospital. When his beloved daughter gets married, the doctors and nurses in the hospital will naturally join in the fun. Plus Zhou Zhigao's colleagues and friends from the public security system, the two families together will work together. Good guy, no one. There is no room for forty tables.
Su Mang discussed with Zhou Zhiyuan that most of the guests who came were colleagues and friends of both parents, and most of them came for their parents' sake, so gifts would be indispensable.
She said that in order to repay the favor in the future, two red envelope boxes were set up at the front desk of the wedding banquet, one for the woman and one for the man. After receiving the red envelopes, the elders on both sides took them back to count and register them. Neither of them wanted these red envelopes.
Zhou Guangyi and Tian Xinping felt that the wife Zhigao found was too sensible, and Zhou Guangyi was worried about this.
It's hard to repay a favor when you owe money, and he really doesn't want to owe so many favors.
Having retired, he had no power in his hands, so he was willing to coquettishly entertain his grandchildren with his wife. He had no ambitions and was unwilling to participate in their disputes. He just wanted to live his own quiet and stable life, but they learned that With the news that the second child was getting married, many people asked to attend the banquet. He couldn't just refuse.
It would be good if he knew who gave the gift and what kind of gift he gave, so he could find a way to find an opportunity to return the favor.
Naturally, the second child and his wife do not accept gift money. As parents, they will never treat you and the second child badly. The wedding room is a welfare house from the work unit that Zhou Zhigao applied for. After they get married, they will live separately and live alone. He gave it in advance. After receiving a sum of money from Zhou Zhigao, it can be considered as the financial support of the new family.
Tian Xinping was a little excited. When the eldest son Zhou Zhiyuan married Yao Jingping, she, as a mother, did nothing and felt very regretful.
Now that the second child is married, she is busy in a new way. She originally wanted to buy all the furniture and appliances, but her son and daughter-in-law don't need her to intervene. They say that young people have young people's vision, and the elders worry and spend money to buy it. Not necessarily what they want.
So I discussed with my wife and decided to give him 5,000 yuan and buy whatever he wanted.
The old man also joined in the fun and gave Zhigao a big red envelope containing one thousand yuan. Not to mention, he forced Ning Guocheng to give him a red envelope, and Zhou Youtian also laughed at Ning Guocheng. Such a lonely old man is still a money addict. He can't spend so much money alone, so why not leave it for future generations.
If you can't help with furniture and appliances, then you can buy and sew quilts.
Tian Xinping took advantage of Yao Jingping and Zhou Zhiyuan's day off to take care of the children at home, so she took her husband to the mall to buy everything. They originally agreed to buy only bedding materials, but ended up buying pots, pans, lighters, and matches. A bunch of...
Although Zhou Zhigao repeatedly told his mother not to sew too many quilts, the Su family had already prepared six beds of brand-new quilts with six covers, and Tian Xinping still prepared eight quilts made of silk and satin fabrics.
Good things come in pairs. The eldest and second child each prepared four brand-new beddings and a pair of pillow covers. Even the three little ones took advantage of it. Each child made a small thin quilt. Now that the weather is warm, they can cover themselves at night. The thin bedding was very comfortable.
Tian Xinping felt restless and wanted to do more work for the children. While Zhou Guangyi and Chen Chunhua were playing with the children and the three children were quiet, she started working in the kitchen again. .
Zhou Guangyi looked at his wife who was busy running around with a look of helplessness on his face.
Let her rest, she feels like she hasn't done enough for the children and keeps nagging.
Let her be busy. Once she gets busy, there will be no idle time. She is so thin, so I worry that she will be tired.
Fortunately, Chunhua sewed a doll for each of the children. Each doll's facial features were almost a replica of a child's appearance, and they were wearing simulated clothes. The dolls were made lifelike, and they also had batteries and switches installed on them. Just press the switch to shout for mom and dad, which is very fun.
This talking doll was such a novelty for the three children that even the second child, who had to go to the yard to practice kung fu every day, stopped. Now he was curiously raising his hand to hold the second child's little hand and looking back and forth.
Zhou Guangyi felt that something was wrong with Chen Chunhua. Her eyes were red, her eyelids were swollen, and her face looked tired.
"Is there a lot of homework at Chunhua Night School? If you are busy with homework, you can read more books while the children are playing by themselves..."
Zhou Guangyi looked concerned.
Chen Chunhua shook her head and forced a wry smile on her face.
The homework at night school is really not a problem for her.
She was very good at her homework when she was in school. If her parents hadn't died and her eldest brother didn't miss his job, the teachers said that she would definitely become famous in her studies.
The knowledge in night school is very shallow, and it is easy to understand with teachers teaching you.
She explained to Zhou Guangyi that she was busy making dolls last night and stayed up late so she was not in good spirits. It was okay.
Zhou Guangyi felt that this child was too sensible, so he told Chen Chunhua that the three children at home had a lot of toys. They didn’t have to stay up late to do the sewing work. They could do it whenever they were free...
Zhou Guangyi said to tell her that after a while, the children would take a nap and all other work should be put aside. There was no need to rush and they could just sleep with the children to catch up on their sleep.
Chen Chunhua was moved and nodded repeatedly. This is not a boss, but a relative.
"Zhigao Su Mang is getting married the day after tomorrow. Let's all go to the wedding. Don't forget to tell Daniel that you must come if you have time. Let's all have fun together."
Chen Chunhua didn't dare to raise her head when she heard Zhou Guangyi speak, but just nodded her head in panic.
How dare she tell Zhou Guangyi the truth?
Ever since her father-in-law and mother-in-law left, something was wrong with Sun Daniu. Instead of talking to her, he even started smoking and drinking. After she came home yesterday, Sun Daniu continued to drink from the bottle as if he hadn't seen her.
She cautiously went over to persuade him, but he, smelling of alcohol, hugged her and dragged her to the bed...
Even now, her body is still very sore and her heart is even more humiliated.
She is his wife, and the relationship between husband and wife is originally a matter of mutual consent. How is it different from being insulted by him using violence like this...
She could only knock out her teeth and swallow these things. Especially when facing Zhou Guangyi, how could she have the nerve to tell a male elder what Sun Daniu had done?
Moreover, everyone in the Zhou family is very happy now because of Zhou Zhigao's marriage. How could she let the Zhou family worry about it because of her own unhappiness?
