Chapter 516 Wang Jinfeng Returns to the Village
At this time, Jiang Zhi and Lu Jingxin were also living a very happy life. They had simply renovated their house some time ago, wanting to change the mood. They changed the soft furnishings, and the house had a new feel.
After the mother and son finished their New Year’s Eve dinner, they sat on the sofa and talked about the events of the past year, feeling quite emotional.
This night, some people are destined to be depressed and unable to sleep, while others are destined to be happy and sweet. Life is like this. No one can be smooth sailing, but those who have no guilt in their hearts will always live a more stable life.
The new year has arrived, and 1994 has arrived.
The next day was Chinese New Year's Day. Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen woke up early to visit their neighbors. Every year on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Jinfeng would come to the village. This year, she had made sure to visit her own house first, as it was at the entrance of the village, the first house she entered. And with their current situation, how could Wang Jinfeng, who loved showing off so much, not come? They just didn't know if Lu Guosheng and Zhao Meiling would be able to come.
Sure enough, Wang Jinfeng and Lu Guosheng arrived at around nine o'clock in the morning. Zhao Meiling did not come because Wang Jinfeng did not allow her to come. The two of them had always been at odds, and Wang Jinfeng was annoyed by her.
When Lu Guosheng arrived at Lu Guojiu's house, he couldn't help but sigh that his second brother was really developing too fast.
The same goes for Wang Jinfeng, who feels more touched every time she comes.
The mother and son wanted to say something, but in the end they didn't and went into the yard together.
Originally, Lu Guosheng didn't want to come today. He really didn't want to see Lu Guojiu doing so well now. But to be honest, he still wanted to take advantage of Lu Guojiu's situation, so he came after hesitating for a long time. After all, it was impossible for him to become rich and powerful on his own, and his son ignored him. Also, if he wanted his son to pay attention to him, he had to have a good relationship with this side, otherwise the relationship with his son would be difficult to resolve.
Wang Jinfeng returns to her hometown every year. Although her eldest son is not living well now, her second son is really prestigious. She likes to hear people's flattery, so she has something to show off this time.
Lu Guojiu saw Wang Jinfeng and Lu Guosheng coming to the door and went out to greet them: "Mom, Happy New Year."
Wang Jinfeng smiled and said, "Okay, you are all fine."
Lu Guojiu said: "Everything is fine, come in quickly."
At this time, Lin Xiaoxia and the others in the house also heard the noise outside, but Li Shaofen did not let Lin Xiaoxia go out to answer it, so as to avoid catching a cold. She just asked her to wait in the house.
Lu Jingshen and Lu Jingyuan followed Li Shaofen to the door, exchanged New Year greetings with Wang Jinfeng and Lu Guosheng, and then went into the house together.
After entering the house, Lin Xiaoxia also stood up to wish Wang Jinfeng and Lu Guosheng a happy new year.
Wang Jinfeng saw that Lin Xiaoxia stayed in the house alone and felt a little dissatisfied, but she didn't dare to say it. This grandson's wife was really her nemesis, and whatever she said was right, so she simply didn't say anything.
After everyone sat down, Li Shaofen put the fruit plate in front of Wang Jinfeng: "Mom, have some grapes. Jing Shen and Xiao Xia's friends are very capable. They made fruits that we can't buy here. Try them."
Wang Jinfeng looked at the fruits and admitted that she was jealous: "Your family is really well off now. If I hadn't come to your house, I wouldn't be able to eat such fresh food. I, an old woman, am not so lucky." There was a hint of sarcasm in her words, as if your family has good things but doesn't give them to the elderly.
Li Shaofen was now very good at dealing with this kind of question. She did not refute Wang Jinfeng's words, but said to Wang Jinfeng, "Mom, I haven't told you the good news yet. Xiaoxia is pregnant. These fruits are specially made for her by her friends who feel sorry for her hardship during the pregnancy."
When Wang Jinfeng heard that Lin Xiaoxia was pregnant, she couldn't describe her feeling. She was happy because this was her first great-grandson, but she was also sad because she originally thought that the first great-grandson would be Lu Jingjia's, but in the end all the good things went to her second son. The feeling of losing to her dead mother-in-law still surfaced.
But she also knew that she couldn't afford to offend the second brother now, and she might even have to beg him to help Lu Guosheng in the future, so she said, "This is a happy event, and you see I haven't prepared anything, and I didn't bring Xiaoxia a gift or anything."
Lin Xiaoxia didn't know that Wang Jinfeng's words were just a formality. Could she really prepare a gift for her?
Of course, I didn’t think about asking for a gift from Wang Jinfeng, but I also didn’t want to let Wang Jinfeng feel at ease.
She said to Wang Jinfeng, "Grandma, when I give birth, please prepare a big gift for us. I will thank you in advance on behalf of the child."
Although he didn't need it, he was still willing to put pressure on Wang Jinfeng and make her bleed a little.
Wang Jinfeng felt a sinking feeling in her heart. If she was preparing a gift for Lin Xiaoxia's child, she would not be able to give it away if it was too little, and she could not afford the expensive ones herself. At this moment, she immediately felt the pressure in her heart.
But I couldn't put it off anymore. It would be a big deal now. I could only nod and say, "Okay, sure."
After chatting awkwardly for a while, Lu Jingxue arrived.
After entering the house and greeting everyone, he said to Lu Guojiu, "Second Uncle, I thought that grandma and uncle could come to your house first, so I came to invite you to have dinner at my house. I have prepared the dishes."
Lu Guojiu had thought of this before. He went to Lu Guoji's house to celebrate the New Year every year. Now that Jiang Lirong can't take care of herself, it would be more appropriate to go there.
So he said to Lu Jingxue, "Okay, then let's all go to your house for dinner. Your second aunt has prepared a lot of cooked meat and other things, so bring them over."
Lu Jingxue didn't hesitate to refuse, "Well, I'll get it for Second Aunt."
Lu Jingyuan also followed and said, "I'll help too."
After a while, Li Shaofen and her friends came out with a basket filled with meat and other things, and the whole family went to Lu Guoji's house together.
Originally, Li Wensong said he would not go and would stay at home to look after the house, but Lu Guojiu said that Li Wensong was the child of the family and must be taken with him, so Li Wensong went with them.
Wang Jinfeng originally wanted to satisfy her vanity on the way, but the words of the villagers made her feel even more uncomfortable with mixed feelings.
As soon as she got to the street, an old lady who was five or six years younger than Wang Jinfeng came over and said, "Isn't this the old sister-in-law of the Lu family? You don't come here often."
Wang Jinfeng was still full of pride at this time and said, "Yes, I won't come back someday. The countryside is too cold in the winter. It's better to live in a building in the city and enjoy a comfortable life. I don't like coming to your countryside in the winter. I can't stand it."
The old lady originally wanted to exchange a few words with Wang Jinfeng, but after hearing Wang Jinfeng's boasting, she felt uncomfortable. She was annoyed by Wang Jinfeng's show-off attitude.
So, without giving her face, she said, "We're not as lucky as my sister-in-law. Our son is successful and lives in an apartment in the city. But I heard that your Guosheng is getting divorced. How is the house divided? Can you still live in the original apartment?"
Wang Jinfeng's face changed when she heard this, but what the other person said was the truth. It was true that her son was divorced, and this matter could not be concealed. Because now it is not like before, people are isolated from the news. There are many people working outside, and many families have telephones. It is not difficult to find out about these things in the village.
