The second day of the Lunar New Year is the day when the son-in-law comes to visit.
If Qiao Nianyao had a natal family, she would also come to visit her.
Even if Song Qingfeng couldn't go, he had to go.
But Lao Qiao's house is nothing. Of course she won't go there again. As she said, don't come to announce her funeral even if she dies.
So save it.
But today, Lao Zhou's house is lively.
Zhou Dashan and Chen Guihua's daughter Zhou Cai brought her husband Li Xin and their children back to her parents' home.
"It's such a long journey, so there's no need to rush back. Just wait until the weather warms up and you can come back again." Zhou Dashan said with a smile.
Zhou Cai married to the next county.
I borrowed the donkey cart from their team to come back, otherwise it would be difficult to walk such a long way from my husband's house.
It would be fine if it was just a couple, but there is also a child, a little girl, only one year old, who can't even speak yet, but she looks very cute.
Being held in her mother's arms, she blinked at these relatives.
I was also wrapped up tightly along the way.
"Today is the day when my son-in-law comes to visit. Of course he has to come. If he doesn't come, I won't let him go." Zhou Cai said with a smile.
"It's just because I'm free at this time. If the weather gets warmer, I have to dig a well." Li Xin also smiled. He was carrying several door-to-door gifts, and there were also food rations for his family of three.
At this time, visiting relatives means bringing their own food rations.
It was also because Chen Guihua, the mother-in-law, looked good after seeing the New Year's gift and food rations.
"Don't stand in the yard anymore, come inside," she said.
"Yes, everyone come in, come in." Zhou Dashan also greeted.
As for Zhou Dong and Zhou Liang, they are no longer at home, and they have gone back to visit their wives with their respective wives.
Aunt Song in the room had just gotten up at this time.
After getting dressed, we came out.
Zhou Dashan said: "Mom, Yaomei and Ashin are back with my daughter."
"Happy New Year, Mom!" Li Xin greeted with a smile.
Zhou Cai held his daughter in his arms and hurriedly came forward to support her breasts, "Slow down, breast milk." She knew that her legs would be bad in the winter.
Aunt Song led them into the house and said with a smile: "No need to hold Nai Nai. Nothing will happen to Nai Nai this year. Look at my state this year. Am I better than last year?"
"Yes, you look better than before, what's going on?" Zhou Cai still supported her.
Zhou Dashan, Li Xin, Chen Guihua and others followed behind.
After everyone sat down, Aunt Song smiled and said: "Your cousin works at the health center now. Your cousin just pressed my legs. Now I can go anywhere. As long as I don't get cold, there will be no problem."
"Ah? My cousin went to work at the health center? When did this happen?" Zhou Cai looked surprised.
Of course she knew Qiao Nianyao, her cousin.
When Qiao Nianyao married Song Qingfeng, she was not yet married. She only married Li Xin in the second half of the same year, after the autumn harvest.
I came back with Li Xin every Chinese New Year.
Although Song Qingfeng, his cousin, was not here, Zhou Cai would come over to see her every year, carrying a gift alone.
"It happened this year. Your cousin is also at home, but his legs are bad now." Chen Guihua said.
It was also because of the distance and the fact that she was a granddaughter from a foreign marriage. Even if her grandson-in-law had good conditions, the affairs of her cousin Song Qingfeng had little to do with her, so Aunt Song did not call her grandson to inform her.
It's not too late to wait until we get back.
At this moment, Aunt Song briefly told the story of Song Qingfeng, her nephew, who had a disabled leg and was sent back by the army.
Zhou Cai's face tightened, "How is your cousin doing now?"
"Have you checked it carefully?" Li Xin also asked.
"The troops sent him back after the examination. His leg probably won't be healed, but don't worry, there won't be much problem with him," Aunt Song said.
"What will my cousin do next?"
Of course she heard that her cousin might not be able to walk in the future?
"Your cousin is taking care of her. Your eldest and second brothers will also go over to help. I'm still capable, so I can go over and help. It's okay. Don't worry." Aunt Song said.
"Your cousin is very capable. Not long ago, our health department selected an intern doctor. She tried it out and was hired. Now she is working as a massage doctor there. She has become a full-time doctor. She is the one who fucked your breasts. Press it down with medicinal wine." Zhou Dashan said.
"That's right." Aunt Song nodded.
Hearing this, Zhou Cai was not too happy and said to Aunt Song: "Nai, let's go see my cousin first."
"Okay." Aunt Song nodded.
Zhou Cai divided the gifts she brought back, one for her family and one for her cousin. She didn’t know if her cousin would come back this year, but whether she came back or not, she would keep this one.
When Chen Guihua saw that he had taken half of it, she immediately curled her lips, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Because they also knew the way, Zhou Cai and Li Xin carried their daughter over without having to take her with them.
When he got to the door, he called, "Cousin, Li Xin and I are here to see you."
It’s not possible without shouting, Dahuang is guarding the gate, even though Zhou Liang, Zhou Dong and the others have come and gone so many times.
But without Song Qingfeng asking to let him in, they still couldn't get through the gate, let alone Zhou Cai.
Probably only Aunt Song can go in, but Dahuang will still bark twice to remind the male owner in the room.
"Come in." Song Qingfeng's voice came out.
Dahuang understood and backed away obediently after hearing what the male host said.
"Dahuang is as smart as ever." Zhou Cai said with a smile.
Dahuang still remembers her and comes back every New Year, but he doesn't show any sign of it, he recognizes his master and the male master.
When the family of three came in, they saw Song Qingfeng sitting on the kang.
Seeing his appearance, Li Xin and Zhou Cai couldn't help but look at each other. Is my cousin really bad?
But he quickly came to his senses and said, "Cousin, happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year, come and sit." Song Qingfeng nodded, focusing on Li Xin.
Li Xin has good looks and is above average in height. He is a good match for Zhou Cai, his niece.
Judging by her watch, my niece's complexion seems to be doing well.
After Zhou Cai and Li Xin put down their gifts, they sat down.
Song Qingfeng told them: "Your cousin went to work at the health center and was not at home."
Zhou Cai smiled and said, "I also heard what I said. I will go see my cousin when I pass by the commune when I go back later."
Song Qingfeng nodded and then looked at the little girl in Li Xin's arms. After her father put the little girl on the kang, she was not afraid of life and climbed up on her own.
He's just over a year old and can't walk yet.
Song Qingfeng smiled and took out the red envelope and gave it to her, "Here, here is the New Year's money from your cousin."
The little girl smiled at her cousin and took the red envelope.
Zhou Cai was amused, "You are not polite at all to your cousin."
Li Xin also couldn't laugh or cry. His daughter received the red envelope very smoothly.
Song Qingfeng brought some sweets for the little girl to eat, which his wife had prepared before going out.
