At this time, everyone in the Zhou family had returned, including Zhou Ziwen and Zhou Ziwu, and took their annual leave. They had not taken annual leave for several years, and the leave was plenty, as the army had approved it.
The crackdown is still going on, so they can't do too much outside, but the food on New Year's Eve is still very rich, and they kill chickens and ducks.
The chicken was bought from someone Miao Cuihua knew. The chicken she bought was super delicious and made people want to keep eating it.
The meat is very fresh and delicious, and it tastes great when cooked. I don’t get this feeling when I buy chicken from other places.
When we arrived at Zhou's house, it was already packed with people.
This was the largest number of Zhou family members Lu Xiangxiang had seen since she got married. Father Zhou's family, including her, Uncle Zhou's family, Uncle Zhou's family, and even Aunt Zhou had all come back to have the New Year's Eve dinner.
It has been a long time since the whole family had a meal together, and everyone couldn't help but feel emotional.
There was only one vegetarian dish on the table, which was stir-fried bean sprouts. The rest were meat dishes, and the portions were large and rich, so everyone could eat their fill.
They are not actually afraid of cooking so much meat, because every household eats meat during the Chinese New Year, so it is not out of place.
The food is very rich, with bacon, chicken, etc., especially the chicken is very delicious, and people can't help but eat it again.
They ate so much that their stomachs were full, and they were strolling around in the yard.
Mother Zhou took Lu Xiangxiang and introduced her two sons to her. "I won't introduce Ziwu to you, you've met him before. As for Ziwen, I'll just introduce you to him."
Lu Xiangxiang smiled at Zhou Ziwen and looked at Zhou Ziwen and Zhou Ziwu. Both of them were handsome men over 1.8 meters tall, with broad shoulders and narrow waists.
Well, I have to say that Mr. and Mrs. Zhou have really good genes, and their children are all very handsome.
Zhou Ziwen and Zhou Ziwu have completely different types of handsomeness, but from their appearance you can still feel that they are brothers.
However, she has a husband filter, and she thinks her man is more handsome.
"Sister-in-law." It was the first time Zhou Ziwen met Lu Xiangxiang, and he greeted her with a smile.
"Okay, okay, you should prepare some gifts for the first meeting. I'm sorry it's just a small gift." She took out two red envelopes from her pocket.
Zhou Ziwen and Zhou Ziwu were a little surprised that they still received red envelopes at such an old age.
Then everyone looked towards the eldest brother, who nodded to them and said, "This is a little gift from your sister-in-law. Please accept it."
The two of them then accepted the red envelopes that Lu Xiangxiang had prepared. The red envelopes were quite generous, and they were a little surprised when they received them.
When we got home at night, we found that their sister-in-law had stuffed ten big black tens in the box, each worth one hundred yuan. I have to say it was really generous.
That’s all for later.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." They all expressed their gratitude.
Zhou Ziheng and Lu Xiangxiang were called away by the elders again, and waited until their eldest brother and sister-in-law left.
Their eyes fell on the eldest brother's children. This was the first generation of their family, and Zhou Ziwen looked at them with some surprise.
As for Zhou Ziwu, he squatted down and greeted the three little ones with a smile, "Hey, New Year's Eve, do you still remember your uncle?"
The three little ones had good memories and immediately said, "Of course I remember."
"Then who am I?" Zhou Ziwu continued to ask with a smile.
"You are Uncle Bullet Shell." This is what everyone said in unison at the beginning of each year.
"You are Uncle Baby." These are what Yiyi said.
The smile on Zhou Ziwu's face froze, and his expression fell. "Is this all you remember? Don't you remember that I'm your third uncle?"
"Hello, Third Uncle." The three little ones readily changed their words.
"Puff." Lu Duoduo couldn't help but spit out something when she saw this, but she quickly covered her mouth again. This was too rude.
Zhou Ziwu glanced at her leisurely, and seeing that her eyes were red from holding back her laughter, he said, "Just laugh if you want to. There's no need to hold it back."
"Ahem, it's a little funny. I'm not laughing at you, instructor. I'm laughing at the three little ones. They are really smart." She patted the three little ones' butts.
"Aunt, we are grown up now, you can't always slap our butts."
"That's right, you won't grow taller if you slap your butt."
Lu Duoduo was laughing so hard that tears came out. "You're only four years old, you can pat your butt if you want to. Who told you that patting your butt will make you grow taller?"
"You don't need to know this, we just know it anyway." Chu Chu said with a smart face.
Ahem, that's so funny.
It’s so fun to have kids at home.
Zhou Ziwu stared at the bright smile on her face with dull eyes. No one noticed his abnormality, only his second brother saw it. At this time, he was looking at Lu Duoduo with amusement and then glanced at his silly brother.
"Who are you?" Zhou Ziwen took the initiative to talk to Lu Duoduo.
"Hello, second brother of the Lu family, I am your sister-in-law's younger sister. My name is Lu Duoduo, you can just call me Duoduo." She greeted him gracefully.
“It turned out to be Duoduo.”
"Have you heard of me?" Seeing that he seemed to be very familiar with her, she couldn't help but ask.
"Ahem, I heard about you from my third brother." He betrayed Zhou Ziwu on the side without hesitation.
Zhou Ziwu, who was suddenly called, pointed at himself in surprise. When had he told his second brother about this?
No.
Lu Duoduo noticed his strange behavior and laughed a little, "That shouldn't be the case. Instructor Zhou isn't such a gossipy person."
Zhou Ziwu nodded upon hearing this.
"Instructor Zhou?"
"Well, Zhou San was an instructor at our school before."
"So it's the instructor. I was wondering why you two looked so familiar with each other." Zhou Ziwen said.
"Second brother, why are you acting a little weird today?" Zhou Ziwu said.
"Nothing, I'm just curious. My sister-in-law is pretty, and her sister is pretty too. There are many handsome bachelors in our army, so I just want to introduce one to my sister-in-law."
"Second brother, Duoduo is only seventeen years old. At this age, of course, studies should be the priority." Zhou Ziwu couldn't help but retort when he heard this.
"Seventeen is not young anymore. Let's get to know each other first, then date for a year or two. Then we can get married when Duoduo graduates from university. Isn't that great?"
"Second brother, please don't get involved. The army is full of roughnecks. They are not as good as the students in her school."
"Hey, don't call us rough guys. We are graduates of a serious military academy. What do you mean by rough guys?" Zhou Ziwen said unhappily.
Um, so that means only the guys in his unit are rough and tumble?
I can't admit this, but is there something wrong with this second brother? He's pimping as soon as he comes back? Is he just bored?
"By the way, second brother, I heard that there's a girl from your army's art troupe who likes you, right?"
Zhou Ziwen glanced at him and asked, "Where did you hear this news?"
