Chapter 208 Wang Jinfeng is unwilling

Ai Xiaoxia smiled at Lu Jingshen beside her while holding the phone. When she was halfway through the call, Lu Jingshen came in. He heard some of what Ai Xiaoxia said and knew it was Wang Jinfeng calling, so he naturally didn't go out to call his parents.

The two of them acted as if nothing had happened, then let go of the dining table, moved the stools, and prepared to eat.

But as for Wang Jinfeng, she burst into tears after hanging up the phone, feeling extremely aggrieved.

Who would dare to talk to her like this before? Why did it become like this now? She didn't know what went wrong.

The house is so quiet now. It's New Year's Day, Jiang Zhi is cooking in the kitchen, Lu Guosheng and Lu Jingxin are putting up couplets, but there is no laughter in the house at all. How can it feel like New Year's Day?

Thinking that after the New Year, this family will no longer be a complete family, and even the house may not be able to be kept, she really doesn't know what to do.

In fact, she also had regrets. If she had not been so kind to her second son's family, if she had not been biased, could Lu Jingshen have reached out and let Lu Guosheng return to his original life, or even better?

No, this cannot go on. I have to go back to my hometown on the first day of the new year and have a good talk with my second son. He, Lu Guosheng and Lu Guoji are brothers. How can I just enjoy my own family and ignore my brothers?

Wang Jinfeng thought to herself, although I can't influence Ai Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen, I can always persuade my own son, right? I am his mother, how can he refuse to listen to my words? As long as my second son is convinced by me, how can Lu Jingshen not listen to his father? If Lu Jingshen listens, will Ai Xiaoxia dare to object?

Thinking of this, Wang Jinfeng regained her spirits. Even if Jiang Zhi divorced, what could she do? If her youngest son had money, he could find another young and beautiful woman. What was there to be afraid of? Thinking of this, Wang Jinfeng felt much more at ease.

Of course, Lu Guoji's family was also puzzled. The old lady always came home for the Lunar New Year, but she didn't this year. She'd called ahead to say she wasn't feeling well and would be back on the first day. If she wasn't feeling well, why was she back on the first day? What was going on?

Before, Zhang Tingting lost her job and her status was not as good as before, but these days she found out that she was pregnant, and her status returned. Now she doesn’t have to work, and she has good food and drink. She is in a good mood. She got pregnant before Ai Xiaoxia. If she gives birth to a son and Ai Xiaoxia gives birth to a daughter, then she will definitely win this game.

Jiang Lirong has been very happy these days because her daughter-in-law is pregnant. After all, she is going to have a grandson.

After a while, Ai Xiaoxia's family started eating. They didn't drink alcohol at noon, but they drank Zhenzhen lychee drink in cans, which was a very popular drink in the north at that time.

A stewed big fish, a few stir-fries, Li Shaofen learned a lot of cooking skills from Ai Xiaoxia. In the past, she just added chopped green onions to the pot, and the seasoning at home was just salt and MSG. Now, after being taught by Ai Xiaoxia, the seasoning at home has become richer, and the dishes she cooks are more diverse, such as braised, sweet and sour, and she can do it all.

After lunch and cleaning up, everyone sat on the kang, watching TV and playing cards, and the noise lasted until dark.

As soon as it got dark, Lu Guojiu opened the red lanterns outside, and the white snow on both sides of the door was illuminated by the red lanterns, creating two beautiful halos.

Lu Jingyuan melted a few pointed-handled frozen pears. This kind of frozen pears must be frozen in the snow to taste good. Later, as society progressed, many people used freezers to freeze them, but the taste was different. This kind of pear must be local and frozen in the snow to taste good. This pear is very sour when it is just picked, but after freezing, it is sweet and sticky when melted in cold water. Take a small bite and suck, and all the juice will come out.

Ai Xiaoxia ate two frozen pears and wanted more, but Lu Jingshen pulled her hand back: "Can your appetite handle eating like this?"

Ai Xiaoxia took her hand back: "It's really delicious."

Lu Jingshen said, "If you like eating, eat one a day. You can't eat them continuously like this."

Ai Xiaoxia nodded: "I understand, Engineer Lu."

Lu Jingyuan looked at the two of them and rubbed his arms: "Why is no one paying attention to me? I've already eaten three."

Li Shaofen said to him, "You eat secretly every day. You can even eat frozen ones. It's okay if you eat eight."

Lu Jingyuan sighed: "Ah, same person, different fate."

After chatting and laughing for a while, we started preparing dinner. In addition to cooking, we also had to make dumplings.

Li Shaofen prepared the stuffing early, kneaded the dough, and had the dishes ready.

It was almost eight o'clock and the Spring Festival Gala began. They made dumplings together while watching the gala. After they finished making dumplings at around ten o'clock, Li Shaofen started preparing the New Year's Eve dinner.

The New Year's Eve dinner is very rich. In the north, there must be fish, chicken, pork elbows, pig's trotters, spare ribs, and fried dishes, such as fried meatballs, fried noodles, etc. Vegetarian dishes are cabbage, which is a homonym for "baicai" (a kind of vegetable), and are a must.

The rest depends on your family's financial situation. This year, Ai Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen bought a lot of vegetables, so the New Year's Eve dinner was more sumptuous.

At 11:40, Lu Jingshen and Lu Jingyuan went out to set off firecrackers, and Li Shaofen started cooking dumplings.

At twelve o'clock, with the countdown on TV, the new year began and 1993 arrived.

Ai Xiaoxia, Lu Jingshen and Lu Jingyuan began to wish their parents a happy new year. Lu Guojiu and Li Shaofen also prepared big red envelopes for the three children.

Afterwards, Ai Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen also called Lin Jianye in the city to wish him a happy new year.

While everything was peaceful at their home, there was no festive atmosphere at Ai Weimin's home. It was dead silent. They just set off a string of earth-red firecrackers, and that was it, because they had no money.

Because his marriage fell through, Ai Laibao lay on the kang, groaning for two days without getting up.

Ai Lai Fu looked at him more and more awkwardly: "Ai Lai Bao, isn't it just a breakup? You're just an old man, is it really necessary to do this?"

Ai Laibao sat up suddenly: "Ai Laifu, you said it so lightly? You got married, someone warms the bed, but I haven't tasted the taste of a wife yet, how can I not feel uncomfortable?"

Ai Laifu said, "So what do you want? They've called off the engagement now. Can you please make them feel better during the New Year?"

Ai Laibao was already in a bad mood, and now Ai Laifu's words made him even worse. He thought that if I'm in a bad mood, you shouldn't be in a good mood either. He said to Ai Laifu: "Speaking of which, your wife is useless. She can't even have a child. In the end, won't the family be wiped out?"

What Ai Lai Fu feared most was other people saying this, like a cat whose tail was stepped on: "Ai Lai Bao, are you looking for death?" As he said that, he jumped onto the kang and hit Ai Lai Bao.

Ailaibao was also on guard and stretched out his hands to resist, but he was sitting and Ailaifu was standing, so he was still at a disadvantage and was punched in the eye by Ailaifu.

But Ailabao was not to be outdone and kicked Ailafu in the crotch.

Ailaifu cried out in pain.
