Chapter 125: A big banquet in Daliang Village
After returning to Daliang Village, the house was dusty because no one had lived there for a year. Liang Zongshan cleaned himself up when he went to pick him up. When Cui Xue came back, he found that Xu was covered in dust.
The red brick house was okay to live in, but it was really dusty after being unoccupied for a long time.
Cui Xue considered whether to rebuild the house and renovate it, so that it would at least be less troublesome to clean.
Later, she told Liang Zongshan about this idea. He thought about it for a while and still refused.
It’s not that they are afraid of spending money, but they basically don’t live in their hometown now, and it seems a bit redundant to spend money to rebuild the house.
If you think it’s troublesome to clean, then you can just spend money to hire two people to clean it before you come back. Rebuilding a house is time-consuming and laborious.
After hearing what he said, Cui Xue was speechless, but she suddenly had an idea. She decided to wait until she returned to the city to see if it would work.
Liang Zongshan rarely returned to the village, and Daliang Village was excited and wanted to invite him to a banquet.
When the village chief came to the house to tell them about this the next day, Cui Xue was stunned.
There was no need to hold a banquet. People who didn't know would think that he had done something big and needed to have a separate family tree.
They wanted to refuse, but the village chief didn't listen at all. He insisted on holding a banquet, and he had already prepared it. He just asked them to send someone.
Speaking of which, in this era, it is true that one person serving in the army brings honor to the whole family.
Unable to persuade the village chief, they could only agree to attend the next day.
Although the banquet was held in his name, Liang Zongshan didn't dare to really go there.
After the village chief left, he and Cui Xue immediately went to the county bank to withdraw money, and then wrapped a lot of big red envelopes overnight.
At the banquet the next day, in the name of the New Year, red envelopes were given to many people.
This kind of banquet is usually funded by every household in the village. The village chief did not let them pay, so they could only respond in this way.
There was not much money in the red envelopes, just a token of thought. The villagers received the red envelopes and had a big meal, so they all smiled.
After going through all the tables, Cui Xue could sit down and eat properly.
The dishes were a little cold, but they had to be delicious.
She ate a lot, and when she put down her chopsticks, she found Yuan Ling waving at her not far away.
After saying goodbye to Liang Zongshan, she went to Yuan Ling's table.
There were not many people at the table. Men and women all ate their meals and went to chat with their own companions.
Yuan Ling introduced a few people to her. They were all her good friends in the past, and now they were hired to help in the store.
After chatting for a while, Cui Xue didn't get along with them, and soon they all found excuses to leave.
"Last time I saw you said you were preparing for pregnancy, why are you not doing anything now?" Cui Xue glanced at Yuan Ling, and suddenly remembered this matter, so she asked her.
"Well, I can't get pregnant." Yuan Ling's face was full of worry when she said this.
Doesn't she want to get pregnant? Yes, she has been preparing for pregnancy for a long time, but there is no movement.
I don't know if there is a problem with her or Liang Pingxing, but they went to the hospital for a check-up and didn't see anything.
"Then you...are you under a lot of pressure?" Cui Xue didn't dare to imagine how crazy her aunt would be.
As expected, after just a few words, Yuan Ling started talking about her mother-in-law's nonsense.
Probably because she heard from Liang Pingxing that Yuan Ling was willing to have a baby, and the eldest aunt found a lot of folk remedies from somewhere.
She didn't dare to confront her son, but she dared to bring it to Yuan Ling, just like she had completely forgotten about Yuan Ling's gastric perforation last time.
Although Yuan Ling wanted a child, she didn't forgive this mother-in-law, and didn't want to take any damn folk remedies.
So she had a big fight with her mother-in-law, and told Liang Pingxing about it, and he came back and had a big fight with his mother.
This matter was so noisy that everyone in the village knew about it.
The eldest aunt was annoyed that Yuan Ling destroyed their mother-in-law relationship, and threatened that she would not help take care of the child, but Yuan Ling didn't take it seriously at all.
"With her like that, if I have to take care of my child, I'm afraid the child will have a headache or a fever, and she'll give me some folk remedies and harm my child." Yuan Ling sneered and complained. Cui
Xue was silent. She felt that Yuan Ling's guess might come true.
In her memory, Liang Xiaoying once said that Liang Pingxing was teased by his aunt when he was a child.
If she hadn't happened to go back to her parents' home at that time and noticed that Liang Pingxing was not right, Liang Pingxing might have been burned out.
"Let's not talk about who will take care of the child first, let's go and see what's going on with you two. My eldest cousin is really old. Even if he only has one child, it's time to do it as soon as possible."
Don't wait until you are old and can't make much money, and the child still hasn't made money by himself.
"My mother found an old Chinese doctor for me. We'll go see him after the New Year." Yuan Ling approached Cui Xue and whispered.
Chinese medicine is not popular yet. Because of the trend in previous years, people are still a little wary of Chinese medicine, so they only dare to talk about it in private.
"It should be." Cui Xue nodded when she heard it.
What Western medicine can't see, Chinese medicine may not be unable to do. I just hope Yuan Ling can make her wish come true.
The banquet lasted until the evening. Daliang Village had electricity this year, and only a few lamps were installed in public places.
Nowadays, everyone's life is generally better, but the old habits are still hard to change. Installing electric lights and paying electricity bills every month can make many people feel distressed.
But Cui Xue and her friends don't have this habit. They are used to it in the city, and they really feel uncomfortable when there is no electricity at home.
So after Liang Zongshan had dealt with what he had to deal with and had some free time, he started to run around to connect the electricity.
Cui Xue came back to her parents' home a day late, but Liang Xiaoying and the others didn't blame her. The Daliang Village party was a big one, and the nearby villages all knew what they were doing.
As Liang Zongshan's wife, Cui Xue couldn't not attend, so they knew that Cui Xue wouldn't be able to go home that day.
"You don't know how jealous the people in the village are, but they are not happy to send their children to the army, so these people are just greedy."
At home, Liu Ping couldn't control her mouth and told Cui Xue about the various reactions of the villagers to the banquet held in Daliang Village.
"Who cares about them? Jealousy is a disease. It can't be cured after a long time." Cui Xue smiled.
The mouth is on other people's bodies, and they can say whatever they want. Of course, who can control jealousy?
She has lived her current life through her own efforts. If one can live the life of their dreams just by talking, then why are there so many poor people?
Liu Ping naturally knew this truth, but with her personality, she just couldn't stand others gossiping behind their backs. She couldn't say anything to others openly, so she could only go back and say a few words to her family.
Cui Xue knew her personality and was willing to agree with her, but she didn't want to say more.
After staying at her mother's house for most of the day, she met an unexpected person on her way home in the evening.
Halfway home, they saw two people on bicycles following them. Liang Zongshan stopped, turned around and looked, and was stunned.
