Chapter 370 New Year's Eve Dinner
The old couple came quickly and left quickly.
When Yin Huaixi and his companions came back from outside, they had already left.
The whole family loves to gossip. Jiang Wan was still in the house when she heard her mother and aunt talking about the Third Master's family in the yard.
The aunt and the sister-in-law were talking with sharp eyes.
I spotted the gift box in the pavilion at a glance.
Yin Huaixi's nose twitched slightly, and his eyes suddenly brightened.
She did not open the gift box rashly, but went into the house to find her daughter and ask about the origin of the gift box.
"This gift box was given by the old lady you just talked about."
"What? Was it given by the old lady?"
Yin Huaixi was in a fog.
"It seems that our family doesn't have much contact with Third Master's family, so why would they send us gifts?"
Besides, since they are the younger generation, it should be us who give them New Year gifts.
"That old lady Ye came specially to give this gift. She came for Anan."
Jiang Wan briefly explained what had just happened.
Yin Huaixi was stunned. She never expected that this old lady who suddenly appeared could be related to her family.
"That's not right. Isn't Anan's father's surname Bei? Then his aunt's surname should also be Bei. Why is her surname Ye?"
"Maybe he took his mother's surname. Who cares? It has nothing to do with us. Just wait for Anan to come back and talk to her about it."
Jiang Wan felt that the old lady probably returned empty-handed, because Anan was really more stubborn than a cow.
Things that have been determined will not be easily changed.
"By the way, mother, the gift that Old Lady Ye gave you was some saffron and cordyceps. You must have..."
Would like...
Before Jiang Wan could finish her words, she saw her mother turn around and trot out of the house.
He looked so happy as if he had won a five million lottery.
………………
It was obvious that precious medicinal herbs were her true love, and her daughter had to stand aside.
Feeling sour, Jiang Wan went to the kitchen humming. Her mother ignored her, and there were also her cousin and aunt.
The house was much cleaner in the afternoon.
Jiang Wan and Yin Ning were busy making fried food. Song Wenhui was a pregnant woman and was very sleepy, so she was sleeping in the house.
Yin Huaixi was still busy looking after her precious medicinal herbs. She hadn't left the pharmacy for over an hour and hadn't even had a sip of water.
There was originally another laborer in the family, but because it was the New Year, Master Yin and Master Zhou had already made an appointment to visit the homes of several poor students.
A few dozen copper coins or a little bit of meat can help those families have a good New Year.
If they had just arrived in the village, they would have felt bad for taking the money. Now, they earn a few hundred coins a month. They also received money from the land sales in the village.
The pocket will naturally be filled.
They used to be rich and very generous, and they haven't corrected this bad habit until now.
However, compared to the time when I would spend several taels of silver at a time, now I only spend a few dozen coins, which is already considered frugal.
It’s also because my wife at home doesn’t care about it, otherwise there would definitely be a big fuss when I get home.
The two of them wandered around the village for the entire afternoon, spending more than ten taels of money, and returned home towards evening.
When you go out, your pockets are full, and when you come back, your pockets are empty.
But Yin Huaishan's spirit was extremely satisfied.
When he came back, he was still interested in running around the yard with his two dogs. Song Wenhui was so angry that she wanted to hit him with a stick.
"Hurry up and wash your hands, come and help! I've been out all day, and when I come back, I'll be waiting for you, you're so beautiful!"
Song Wenhui put her hands on her hips, and already had the demeanor of many of the village aunties and grandmas.
This should be done half a year in advance. No matter whether the man is playing or working outside, as long as he comes home, you have to serve him well.
Even though it is inconvenient for her to do things because of her big belly, she will insist on doing all the work herself.
The idea of the man working outside and the woman working inside the home is implemented perfectly.
Strive all your life to be a good wife and mother.
Song Wenhui was like this half a year ago, but she has changed six months later.
It’s so comfortable because I don’t have to suppress myself to please others every day!
Moreover, Song Wenhui also found that her man likes her more as she is now.
Since freeing herself is more beneficial to family harmony, she will naturally go further and further on this path.
Yin Huaishan was already used to it, and when he saw his wife with her hands on her hips, he inexplicably found her cute.
"Okay! I'll go right away. Hui Niang, you sit over there and take a rest for a while."
Yin Ning listened to the voices of his parents talking in the yard, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his lips.
Life is so good now.
As the sun sets, the smoke from the houses gradually dies down.
Every family had the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Jiang Wan and her cousin washed their hands and sat obediently at the table. Now her mother and uncle were busy in the kitchen.
Of course, my uncle doesn’t know how to cook, he can only light the fire and help serve the dishes.
"The last dish of coconut chicken soup is here. Be careful, it's hot. Please move aside!"
The last spot on the big square table was filled, and the New Year’s Eve dinner was ready.
“It smells so good, so good, so good!”
Yin Ning was already hungry, but he had to wait until the food was served before he could eat, and he swallowed his saliva several times.
In the past, the New Year's Eve dinner at home was more fragrant and more exquisite. The New Year's Eve dinner dishes in front of me are not so exquisite, but they are fragrant!
The color and aroma are very tempting, and the taste must be no different if it is made by my cousin and aunt.
Of course she will be greedy.
According to table etiquette, the elders should start eating first before the younger ones. So the two cousins looked at the three adults eagerly.
Yin Huaishan did not understand the looks of his daughter and niece. At this moment, he was quite emotional and could not help but want to say a few words.
"In the blink of an eye, we have been in this fishing village for more than seven months. Thinking about how these days have passed..."
“Ahem…”
"What's wrong with you, Hui Niang? Do you want some water?"
Yin Huaishan was not annoyed by the interruption, he immediately went to pour out some hot water.
Song Wenhui, whose mouth was blocked, said: "..."
Yin Huaixi lowered her head and smiled secretly.
Every time her elder brother expressed his feelings like this, he would talk for a long time. The elder sister-in-law would find opportunities to interrupt him in various ways, and finally achieve her goal.
It’s funny that every time they succeed, it’s also very funny.
It's not that they don't want Big Brother to speak. It's just that if you want to express your feelings, you can do so after dinner. At that time, everyone is full and doesn't want to move, which is a good time to listen to someone talking.
But he always likes to talk before meals and won't change no matter how many times he is taught, so I have to rely on my sister-in-law to control him.
Yin Huaishan saw his wife drink the water. He picked up the wine glass in front of him and was about to continue drinking when he suddenly felt a pain in the tip of his toe.
Who? Who stepped on him?!
When he turned around, he saw it was his wife.
ah……
He, who was full of knowledge, suddenly remembered some things that had happened when he was punished.
Today is the New Year's Eve dinner, and I almost had the same old problem again. Looking at the resentful eyes of his daughter and niece, Yin Huaishan smiled awkwardly, took a sip of wine and put down his glass.
"We can't let this scene go to waste. Let's have a drink first and then eat together."
Seeing his wife giving him a look that said "you know what's what", Yin Huaishan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as the three adults started to eat, the two children followed suit.
Delicious New Year's Eve dinner, let's start!!
(I’m taking a day off today because there’s too much noise from the quarrel at home. 10-04)
