Lu Yiming had never seen such a beautiful coat. His mother was getting more and more talented, and the clothes she made were getting more and more beautiful.
Lu Yiming changed his clothes and walked out of the room. Su Yan looked at her tall and handsome son with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and her heart was happy. Her Yiming was so handsome, even more handsome than the male protagonists in Korean dramas.
It's just that her hair is a little long and the shoes on her feet don't match well.
"My son is so handsome, Yiming, try changing into those leather boots."
Lu Yiming smiled and went back to his room to change his shoes. When he came out again, Lu Ting had just returned. Seeing his son dressed in bright and beautiful clothes, he almost didn't recognize him.
"Wife, is this the coat you made?"
"Well, it looks good, doesn't it?"
"It looks good, but it's a bit expensive. Wife, when will you make one for me? I want it in pure black."
Su Yan wants to make a coat for everyone in the family, but she doesn't have time this year, so she will have to wait until next year.
"Come one by one, we will save up the cloth coupons first and make it for you next year."
Lu Ting was actually joking. They were given military uniforms in spring, summer, autumn and winter, but he had few clothes to wear. He was simply jealous of his son and wanted Su Yan to feel sorry for him and care about him.
Lu Yining touched his eldest brother's new clothes and pouted, "Mom is really partial. My eldest brother's clothes and shoes look very expensive. He dresses like a rich young man."
"Study hard, and Mom will make you each a coat next year. Chinese New Year is coming soon, so after lunch, go get your hair trimmed with Dad."
3.5 meters of woolen cloth can make a long coat for each of the two younger sons. The space contains two or three hundred thousand in cash alone, not to mention hundreds of boxes of antiques and dozens of kilograms of large and small yellow croakers.
Not to mention making a woolen coat for each of them, it would be no problem to even buy each of them a courtyard house with four entrances and exits.
Lu Yirou asked: "Mom, do I need to cut my hair?"
"Rou Rou's hair doesn't need to be cut, your brothers and the others need it."
Lu Yiming took off his new coat and hung it back in the closet, then put on his father's old coat. He didn't need to change his pants and sweater since he had two new ones. He then changed back into his shoes and took the initiative to help his mother wash and cut vegetables.
After lunch, Lu Ting took his three sons to a shop in town to get their hair cut, and Lu Yiru went to the Lu family with the new jump rope she bought for them.
While no one was at home, Su Yan quickly took out the food and New Year's goods for her parents-in-law, and of course took out some for her own family as well.
Her parents-in-law will be returning to the courtyard tomorrow, and she can't ask Lu Ting to go to the city to deliver New Year's goods to them.
When Lu Ting came home from get off work in the evening, Su Yan asked him to take the children to deliver New Year's goods to their grandparents.
One chicken, one duck, one grass carp, ten pounds of pork, one pork thigh, five pounds each of red dates, raisins and dried kiwis, and ten pounds each of raw peanuts and melon seeds.
A large bag of radishes, cabbages and other miscellaneous greens, five pounds of peanut oil, a bag of frozen seafood, twenty pounds each of apples and candied oranges, but no grain or eggs were taken. These New Year's goods seemed like a lot, but they were at least half less than what was given to her mother's family.
Apart from preparing New Year's goods for them during the Spring Festival, Su Yan didn't give them much on other days, except during festivals of course.
For Mid-Autumn Festival, I would make a few kilograms of handmade mooncakes for my parents-in-law and bring them a basket of fruit. For Dragon Boat Festival, I would give them five kilograms of brown sugar, fifty kilograms of glutinous rice, a basket of plums, and two grass carps.
When my parents-in-law have their birthdays, if I don’t invite them for a meal, I’ll just give them dozens of eggs. If I do invite them for a meal, I’ll naturally prepare more.
Anyway, as long as everything is acceptable in terms of face, she will give them what they deserve, and she will definitely not prepare more for them what they don't deserve.
Seeing his son and grandson bringing so many things, Lu Fengnian sighed and said, "Why did you bring so many things again? Your mother went to the market with Lu Jin today and bought chicken, duck, fish, meat, tofu and other things."
"There are many people at home and many guests. What you buy is yours. These are a gift from Yanyan and me."
Many of them are married and have to send ten or eight yuan home every month. His father has a high salary, so apart from asking Lu Jin for living expenses every month, the other brothers don't live at home and naturally don't have to give money. Of course, they still have to buy things and ask for money during the holidays.
To be filial to parents, you must be filial to both sides of the family. There is no reason why those brats only buy good cigarettes and alcohol for their father-in-law but not for their own father.
Lu Ting put down his things and chatted with his father by the fire. The children gathered around the stove to watch TV. Su Yan was home alone, kneading dough and frying small twisted dough sticks.
Tomorrow morning, she'll buy three pounds of dried tofu, four pounds of pickled beans, a bag of bean sprouts, and ten blocks of tofu. She doesn't have the space for these, so she still has to buy what she needs.
…
In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve. Su Yan, Lu Ting and Lu Yiming were busy all afternoon preparing a large table of dishes. Looking at the sumptuous dinner on the table and the smiles on the children's faces, Su Yan felt that this afternoon's work was not in vain.
After dinner, Lu Ting and the children started cleaning up. Su Yan turned on the radio at home. Lu Yirou muttered softly, "It would be great if Mom left the TV at home so we could watch TV while eating snacks."
"Rou Rou, next year your grandpa will buy himself a TV when he saves up enough TV tickets. Tomorrow we'll go visit grandpa and grandma and spend the night there. The day after tomorrow your grandpa will bring the TV back."
"I know the teacher said filial piety is the most important virtue, and we should respect our elders."
"Okay, go get the poker and marbles, and Mom will prepare a fruit plate for you."
"Mom, will you play pick up dog poop with us later?"
"You play with your brothers. Mom will knit a scarf for your eldest brother. It might snow tomorrow."
Lu Ting came in carrying a basin and bowls, "Yan Yan, it's already snowing. It's going to snow heavily tonight."
