Chapter 69 Where to pinch?
Because it was a soft sleeper, the two of them had a very comfortable journey. The moment they got off the train, Xia Wanyang stretched without caring about her image, "I'm so tired!"
Zhang Shiye hugged her and whispered in Xia Wanyang's ear, "Can I give you a massage when I get back?"
Xia Wanyang looked at him with sparkling eyes, "Where do you want to pinch?"
Zhang Shiye's ears turned red, "Don't talk nonsense, I'll just massage your legs and waist."
Xia Wanyang laughed out loud. She really enjoyed teasing Zhang Shiye outside. He was like two different people in front of others and behind others. He would be shy and blush in front of others, but when he held her down and nibbled her behind others, he didn't feel embarrassed at all.
The two first went to the post office to pick up the package that had been mailed back two days ago, and then spent 50 cents to take a ox cart back. When they arrived at the village, smoke had already begun to come out of the chimneys of each household. As soon as they entered the village, people began to greet Zhang Shiye.
"Is Accountant Zhang back? How was it meeting your father-in-law?"
Zhang Shiye was in a good mood, with a rare smile on his face, "Everything went well."
When leaving, Qiao Shuyun reminded her that no matter what time she got home, she must take Xia Wanyang home for dinner.
The two of them went straight back to Zhang's house. It was dinner time, and as soon as they entered the house, Zhang Shiye shouted, "Dad and Mom, we're back!"
Qiao Shuyun and Yuan Hong were cooking in the kitchen. When they saw the two of them coming back, they came out with a smile and asked, "Are you tired, Wanyang?"
Xia Wanyang smiled sweetly, "It's okay, I'm just hungry!"
When Qiao Shuyun heard her future daughter-in-law say she was hungry, she turned around and walked back, "Shi Ye, take Wan Yang to rest for a while, the meal will be ready soon!"
Zhang Shiye first sent the little girl back to his room, then fetched a basin of cold water from the well, wrung out a towel and went back to his room. Aunt Qiao was in the kitchen, watching her little son busy at work, and said to Yuan Hong with a smile, "It's done. I can finally put my heart at ease!"
She hasn't been able to eat or sleep well these days, for she was afraid that her son would be impolite and upset other people's parents. She was also worried that Xia Wanyang's family was too prominent and her son would feel inferior and dare not speak. Now she can finally rest assured!
Yuan Hong said as she was cutting vegetables: "Yes, you can see that the smile on Fourth Brother's face has not changed since he came into the house. This is the first time I've seen Fourth Brother smile so happily in all the years since I got married!"
Zhang Shiye walked into the room and saw the little girl lying motionless on the kang. He smiled helplessly, walked over and pulled her up. Xia Wanyang leaned softly on him and complained softly, "I'm so tired. Even sleeping in a soft bed is tiring!"
Zhang Shiye gently wiped the little girl's face and hands, and after that Xia Wanyang finally felt a little cooler.
"I'll give you a pinch now, okay?"
Xia Wanyang glanced at the door and blushed, "Aunt and sister-in-law won't come in, right?"
Zhang Shiye shook his head, "Don't worry, mom will yell loudly when we eat!"
Xia Wanyang was relieved, took off her shoes and lay down on the kang, "My waist hurts."
Zhang Shiye first rubbed his big hands to warm them up, then placed them on the little girl's waist and rubbed them gently. After a while, he heard the sound of even breathing.
"Shi Ye, Wan Yang is here to eat!" Twenty minutes later, Qiao Shuyun's loud voice rang out at the door.
Xia Wanyang was startled in her sleep. Zhang Shiye quickly held her in his arms and patted her thin back gently and soothingly. "Don't be afraid, it's okay."
It was five minutes later when Xia Wanyang finally woke up. They came out of the room and saw two boys sitting at the table. The older one looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, and the younger one was thirteen or fourteen years old.
Zhang Shiye pulled Xia Wanyang to sit down and introduced her, "This is my eldest brother's child. He used to study in town and only came back once a semester. He usually lives at my aunt's house."
Qiao Shuyun smiled and said, "Big Boy, Second Boy, this is Xia Zhiqing, you can call her Auntie."
The two children called out, and Xia Wanyang nodded in agreement, then looked around in confusion, "Where's my sister-in-law?"
Zhang Heping looked at Zhang Shifeng and said, "He's going back to his mother's house!"
Xia Wanyang didn't think much about it. They sat down and had a meal together. After the meal, she took out the big package and said as she opened it, "Uncle, aunt, sister-in-law, this is what my parents asked me to bring back for you. It's a little gift from my parents."
Zhang Heping wore a Zhongshan suit, Qiao Shuyun wore a red top and black pants, the two brothers wore white shirts, and the two sisters-in-law wore dresses. The sizes were all provided by Xia Wanyang.
Xia Wanyang went back into the house and opened another bag of snacks. She took out egg cakes, oil tea noodles, milk candies, peach cakes and other snacks. "Big kid, second kid, I didn't know you were on vacation, so I didn't buy you any clothes. Take these snacks."
The eldest and second child raised their heads and said, "Thank you, Auntie."
Zhang Shifeng handed the white shirt in his hand to Zhang Shiye, "Old Four, Xia Zhiqing, I work in the fields every day, so how can I have the opportunity to wear such white clothes? Old Four, you wear it!"
Zhang Shiye pushed it back, "This is a gift from Wanyang's parents. What are you doing to me? Take it back. You don't have to wear it normally. You can wear it when I get married!"
Zhang Shijing originally wanted to send the shirt back, but then he thought it made sense. After his fourth brother met his father-in-law, he would have to set a date for his wedding. When his sister-in-law and her family came, if they were not well dressed, it would embarrass his fourth brother.
Zhang Heping held the Zhongshan suit in his arms and couldn't let it go, but he said, "Such a nice piece of clothing. Your aunt and I are old. It's a waste to wear this."
Xia Wanyang smiled, "Uncle Zhang, how can the clothes you wear be considered a waste? You always go to the town for meetings. When the team develops well in the future, you may also go to the city for meetings. If you wear a decent set of clothes, you will be more confident. You will immediately surpass other team leaders, right?"
Aunt Qiao smiled from ear to ear, "Yes, take it, this is a gift from your in-laws, wear it when you get married!"
Yuan Hong took a dress and put the other one on the table. Xia Wanyang picked it up and handed it to Zhang Shifeng, "Brother, keep this one for my sister-in-law. Give it to her when she comes back from her parents' home!"
Aunt Qiao put away her smile instantly, "Humph, she doesn't deserve it!" She pulled the skirt and stuffed it into Yuan Hong's hands, "Second brother's wife, you and Liu Fang are about the same height, these two dresses are different styles, you can keep them both!"
Zhang Shiye and Xia Wanyang looked at each other, "Mom, what happened?"
Zhang Heping sighed, "After you left, the rain cleared up the next day, so I started to plan to build you a house. But your sister-in-law was so stubborn that she refused to let me. She said that since you guys were newly married and didn't have any children, there was no point in building a house that was too big, and that a small one would be fine!"
Aunt Qiao spat, "What a dirty-hearted person! Her little thoughts were clearly written on her face. She started making a scene that night and insisted that you save 200 yuan out of the 500 yuan to lend to her brother to get married, otherwise you would not live with your eldest brother. Your eldest brother was so angry that he slapped her twice, and she went back to her parents' home!"
Zhang Shiye looked at his elder brother and said, "Brother, I'm sorry!"
Zhang Shifeng smiled a smile that was uglier than crying. "What does it have to do with you? You used your own money to build a house for your marriage. Liu Fang is so shameless that I can't wait to let you down!"
Seeing that the brothers did not have any unpleasantness because of this matter, Aunt Qiao felt relieved.
Zhang Heping patted Zhang Shifeng on the shoulder and said, "Big Boss, you are the first child of your mother and I. When you got married, our family was poor, and we didn't even give you a good look before letting you get married. I am so sorry for you!"
