Chapter 351: Snap Snap
At dinner time in the evening, He Shuyun saw that everyone had something to eat, and she felt even more grateful to Chen Yi.
Because there are so many things to be grateful for, sometimes she doesn't know how to express her gratitude.
So over the years, she only proved herself with her actions. She just worked and did all the housework, and never asked the young couple to help.
"well……"
After dinner, Wang Jianguo sat on the kang in the hut and sighed.
Seeing the children fall asleep, I felt mixed emotions.
Zhang Xiaoyun, who was standing by, looked at him and asked, "Why are you sighing?"
They are all from the countryside and are very talkative. They never sigh for no reason and always feel something is wrong.
Wang Jianguo shook his head. "You said we brought the kids here to see our parents and to see Jianjun get married. But in the end, we still have food and drink here, and they buy us clothes."
Looking at those things today, even if he didn't understand much, he knew that the price was not low. At least they couldn't save up that much even if they worked hard for a year.
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoyun curled his lips and said, "You said you didn't buy anything, why are you always thinking about these things?"
After finally coming to the city, I saw that Wang Jianguo was not feeling well. He was in a bad mood all day long, and it made me angry just looking at him.
"What are you talking about?" Wang Jianguo said unhappily, "It's useless for us to spend money, but their money didn't come from the wind."
He is actually a very contradictory person. He cannot even understand himself, but he thinks everything he does is right.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoyun sat on the kang with a long face, and then said: "Yes, other people's money is not blown by the wind, but our money is?"
"Besides, I didn't ask for it, why are you saying that to me?"
She couldn't understand it at all. It's not that she felt that life was hard, but she thought, wasn't it good that someone was helping them?
It's so nice to have relatives like this, to buy things for them and to give them delicious food.
Besides, they don’t come every day, maybe less than twice in the whole year!
It's not even considered as begging.
Wang Jianguo sighed and opened his mouth but said nothing.
"I asked you to work but you refused to do it. I've never seen anyone as stupid as you!" Zhang Xiaoyun was so angry that he refused to give in.
That's exactly what happened. Anyway, she looked down on Wang Jianguo for this reason. He didn't come to the city to develop his career even though there was a job there, but instead he farmed in the countryside to earn work points. Isn't that stupid?
So stupid!
"Are you almost done?" Wang Jianguo's face turned very ugly.
Do you regret refusing to introduce him to a job?
I regret a little, but just a little, no more.
After all, he felt that life in the city was not easy. He earned thirty or twenty dollars a month, but he had a large family and no place to live.
Therefore, he felt that it was easier to guard the house and the land.
Zhang Xiaoyun didn't argue with him, and the two of them stopped talking and went to bed early.
The next morning, Chen Yi packed up the children and prepared New Year's food with He Shuyun.
For example, the pig heads and pig trotters that He Mingcheng brought back had to be processed in advance, otherwise it would be too troublesome to deal with them now.
As for the other stuff, it's fried food.
I bought a big pot of small fish, and after a little preparation, I could coat it with flour and fry it.
This thing can be eaten as a dish with meals, and can also be eaten as a snack.
Mix the radish with the batter, add some shredded cabbage, and make fried meatballs directly.
Shrimp chips and the like are not available at this time, but Chen Yi can find them, so she prepared a bag.
This is a lot of fried food, and it would be enough to fry some sweet noodles.
There are many people at home, so the meal is lively.
After lunch and cleaning up at noon, Wang Jianjun went into the house in the snow.
"They are all here." He brushed the snow off his body and greeted Wang Jianguo and his wife without showing any surprise.
He heard yesterday that the couple had arrived, so he knew everything.
"Are you on vacation?" He Shuyun came into the house carrying shrimp chips and put them on the table for the children to eat.
Wang Jianjun sat down and said, "Today is my holiday. I went to Xiaoli's house in the morning."
The two of us have settled down, so we go there often now.
Hearing this, He Shuyun perked up and asked, "What did they say?"
"Nothing much to say. Let's go out for dinner together on the first day of the new year." Wang Jianjun said it, and this is what he talked about today.
After all, they are getting married, and the two families have never sat down to eat together.
"That's what I should do." He Shuyun nodded and said, "We should have said this, but I was so busy before the New Year that I forgot about it."
While the two were talking, the others gathered around and ate fried shrimp chips.
"This stuff is delicious." Zhang Xiaoyun made a crunching sound while eating, staring at the shrimp chips in his hand with curiosity.
Wang Hu pulled her clothes and said, "Mom, can we buy this when we get home?"
Although I don’t know what it’s called, it tastes good and you can’t stop eating it.
Zhang Xiaoyun frowned when he heard this. Not to mention what this thing is called, it is precisely because he didn't know that he felt it must be expensive.
"Let's talk about it later. Eat first." She signaled the child to be obedient and eat first.
Eat it now if you have it, and worry about it later when you get home.
Chen Yi looked at the child and said, "Xiao Hu, I'll take care of him when we get home."
That thing is not a good thing. As long as the children like it, they can eat it as they like.
Hearing this, Wang Hu smiled happily, "Thank you, auntie!"
Although this child is greedy, his words are not annoying.
Everyone in the room laughed and continued to eat happily.
In a blink of an eye, it was New Year's Day, and the house was filled with the whole family.
After lunch, we sat in the house and played poker. As for mahjong, we didn’t have it because it was not common.
At this time, there was a knock on the door outside. Chen Yi asked them to continue playing and went to open the door.
"Director Li, why are you here?!" She was a little surprised. She didn't expect him to come.
Factory Director Li wore a hat and smiled as he said, "I'm just passing by. I just happened to come and take a look."
After saying that, he raised his hands to indicate the things he was holding in his two hands.
Good man, Chen Yi looked a little helpless, "Why bring these things? Besides, if anyone wants to visit you, I will go to see you!"
There is such a big age gap between the two people, and they are at the same level as each other, so why would they give each other these things?
"Come in, it's so cold outside." She quickly invited someone to come in.
It's snowing outside and the weather is cold.
Director Li nodded and followed him into the house carrying his things.
There weren't many things, just a chicken and half a rack of pork ribs, all of which were solid goods and hard to buy under normal circumstances.
There were a lot of people in the room, but they stopped playing poker when they saw someone coming.
"This is Director Li from our second factory." Chen Yi introduced them.
"Hello." Director Li greeted them with a smile, and the two men went into the house to talk.
Because they were a man and a woman, the door was not closed, which was not good.
