On the day before New Year's Eve, the package sent by He Xianqiu and his friends arrived.
But there were too many things, so He Baiqing drove to the post office to pick them up.
The post office in Beijing is very large and has many types of stamps. He Xianqiu bought a lot of stamps at the post office.
In addition to the fact that stamps have collection value in future generations, He Xianqiu also thinks that stamps are very beautiful, so after coming here, buying stamps has become a habit for him.
After buying the stamps, several people returned to the military compound with the dry goods that had been sent.
When the two large packages were opened, the He family was inevitably a little shocked. How could so much meat be sent, and of various kinds?
Although the He family had no shortage of tickets, the city only had a limited supply of meat, and only pork was plentiful, while meat from other animals was relatively rare.
Buying so many things would cost a lot of money, so Grandma He couldn't help but worry, and Ji Chenzhou spent a lot of money because of this.
"Chen Zhou, it must cost a lot to buy so many. How much does it cost? Grandma will give it to you."
"Grandma, no need. I got these from the mountains, and they are my token of my love for you. I just wanted to have more meat during the New Year so you can live more comfortably." Ji Chenzhou shook his head and said.
Ji Chenzhou thought about it and decided to hide the matter of the farm because he was afraid that the He family would worry.
When Grandma He heard this, she felt that Ji Chenzhou was thoughtful, and she liked this grandson-in-law more and more.
Soon, New Year's Eve was approaching, and other members of the He family who were able to return to Kyoto to celebrate the New Year all came back to celebrate the New Year.
Grandpa and Grandma He were very happy that day because their children all came back to celebrate the New Year, so Grandma He asked Aunt Li to cook a lot of dishes, and the portions were very large.
Of course, there is a reason why so much food is cooked, and that is that no living creatures can be killed after New Year’s Eve.
Afterwards, Grandma He introduced Ji Chenzhou to everyone, and they celebrated the New Year happily.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, He Xianqiu and Ji Chenzhou both got up early and paid New Year's greetings to their elders.
As soon as He Xianqiu and Ji Chenzhou came down, they saw Grandma He and Grandpa He.
As soon as Grandma He saw them, she gave them red envelopes with a smile.
He Xianqiu happily borrowed it, and then said to Grandma He: "Thank you, Grandma."
Then he said some festive words, which made Grandma He laugh so hard.
When Ji Chenzhou saw the red envelope, he was stunned for a moment because he hadn't received a red envelope for a long time.
Then he noticed He Xianqiu's expression indicating that he should accept it quickly, and he took the red envelope from Grandma He with a smile.
Afterwards, Grandpa He also gave red envelopes to He Xianqiu and Ji Chenzhou, although he was still very arrogant when giving the one to Ji Chenzhou.
Because Grandma He and Grandpa He have already accepted Ji Chenzhou as their grandson-in-law, everyone will give Ji Chenzhou a red envelope when they see him.
On this day, He Xianqiu and Ji Chenzhou both received considerable red envelopes.
Although He Xianqiu received a lot of red envelopes, he still felt a little regretful because his brother He Baiyan could not return to Kyoto to celebrate the New Year this year.
However, although he did not return to Kyoto for the New Year, he still sent back a large gift package, including a red envelope for He Xianqiu.
The two of them spent a lively New Year in Kyoto, but there were also some unpleasant aspects.
Because although Grandpa He and Grandma He are retired, one was a former leader and the other is a university professor.
So during the Chinese New Year, many people would come to the He family to pay New Year's greetings, including people from the military compound, Grandma He's students, and people from other military regions.
Knowing that He Xianqiu brought back a country boy, some gossip was inevitable.
But they didn't dare to say it to their faces and could only talk about it secretly behind their backs.
He Xianqiu and Ji Chenzhou also heard it by chance, but when he heard the other party's unpleasant words, He Xianqiu's face turned black.
To be honest, it's too harsh to say that Ji Chenzhou, a country bumpkin, just fell in love with He Xianqiu's family background. He has evil intentions, but he's just good-looking.
There were also rumors that He Xianqiu would have to get things from her mother's family in the future, after all, she married a poor man, and that He Xianqiu was blind and would be abandoned by this pretty boy in the future, and so on.
These words made He Xianqiu very angry.
When the other person looked up, he saw He Xianqiu opposite him and was immediately embarrassed. He didn't expect that the person who said bad things was right here. Thinking about it, Aunt Chen felt extremely unlucky and immediately shut her mouth.
But He Xianqiu was not the type of person who would just endure it if the other person kept silent. She immediately walked up to the other person and retorted.
He Xianqiu said earnestly: "Aunt Chen, you need to wash your mouth."
Aunt Chen was a little confused when she heard this. Why did she want to wash her mouth?
"It's because your mouth stinks that what you say is unpleasant and vicious." Before Aunt Chen could say anything, He Xianqiu immediately mocked her.
Hearing He Xianqiu's sarcastic words, Aunt Chen was so angry that her face turned blue.
But He Xianqiu was not going to let her go: "Aunt Chen, I remember your daughter married very well. Did she send you anything? It's Chinese New Year now, you have to be filial to your parents."
When Aunt Chen heard this, her face turned black, her mouth twisted with anger, and she pointed at He Xianqiu with shaking fingers.
“You…how could you…”
Aunt Chen talked for a long time but couldn't explain the reason.
Of course she knew that He Xianqiu said that on purpose. He was just mocking her daughter for marrying well. So what?
It’s not that I have never sent gifts to my parents’ home. On the contrary, every time I visit my parents’ home, I have to take things from them to my husband’s home.
He Xianqiu felt a little better when she saw Aunt Chen being humiliated.
People with foul mouths need to be taught a lesson, otherwise their words will be unpleasant and harsh.
He Xianqiu made Aunt Chen so angry that she was speechless, and Ji Chenzhou silently kicked her again.
"Although I am of average means and a country boy, I am willing to give Qiuqiu everything I have. If she wants to show her filial piety, that's what she should do."
Ji Chenzhou's words were smooth and without any ups and downs, but when Aunt Chen heard it, her face turned even darker and she finally walked away.
Afterwards, those who had listened to Aunt Chen's words and even agreed with her were afraid that He Xianqiu and Ji Chenzhou would also attack them.
In the end, they all found excuses to leave, and they left so quickly without staying for even a second.
"Qiuqiu, I haven't cooked anything for Maodan yet, so I'm going back first."
"My old man told me to go back and cook, but I forgot."
He Xianqiu looked at the various excuses given by everyone, and then left immediately after finishing them, unwilling to stay for a moment. She snorted and laughed, and only dared to talk about it behind their backs, but no one dared to say it to their faces.
After that, maybe because He Xianqiu was too talkative, Aunt Chen would leave immediately every time she saw her, and would leave in a hurry, not wanting to stay with her.
He Xianqiu was quite satisfied with the result.
After this incident, no one dared to tell anyone about it in the compound, for fear of being seen by He Xianqiu. After all, He Xianqiu’s scolding was so severe that he even scolded Aunt Chen away.
Not long after, the vacation was over and the New Year was over, and He Xianqiu and Ji Chenzhou were about to return to Qinggang Brigade.
Before leaving, Grandma He came to her room, talked to her for a while, and then gave her two thousand yuan and some gold and silver jewelry. These were Grandma He's dowry for her.
Those pieces of jewelry are obviously worth a fortune, and each one is carved to look lifelike.
Finally, Ning Qinglan also came over and gave He Xianqiu a thousand yuan and some gold and silver jewelry.
He Xianqiu was shocked by their generosity, but she couldn't refuse the kindness from her elders, so she accepted it.
However, it was inconvenient to take these with him, so He Xianqiu deposited the money in the bank, and then hid the gold and silver jewelry specifically, and hid it very deeply.
Looking at the money she had saved, He Xianqiu was extremely happy. She was now a wealthy woman.
So he immediately said to Ji Chenzhou in a generous manner: "Zhou Zhou, I will support you. I have money."
When Ji Chenzhou heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Okay, but that won't work. I have to work hard to make money to support you."
When He Xianqiu heard this, his ears immediately turned red. You have to say, it was really pleasant to hear these words.
Afterwards, He Xianqiu and Ji Chenzhou returned to the Qinggang Brigade.
On the day of departure, the He family sent He Xianqiu and Ji Chenzhou to the station, and everyone was reluctant to let them go.
As the car started, He Xianqiu waved to them. Her eyes were slightly red, and she was reluctant to leave them.
When Ji Chenzhou saw this, he could only silently grab her hand and comfort her.
“We’ll come back next Chinese New Year.”
He Xianqiu's eyes turned red, and then he nodded: "Okay."
However, in a few years, they will be able to move back to Kyoto, but that will still be a long time.
After returning to Qinggang Brigade, Ji Chenzhou began to prepare the bride price, then started to renovate the old house, and then prepared the things needed for the wedding, etc.
As for the division of the family property, I'll talk to him as soon as he's prepared everything and gets married.
When the Ji family knew that he had renovated the old house, they immediately became interested in the old house and wanted Ji Chenzhou to take it out.
But Ji Chenzhou refused, which made Old Lady Ji and Old Man Ji very angry. They pointed at Ji Chenzhou and scolded him.
The other people in the Ji family knew that he had gone to He Xianqiu's house, and since he had renovated the old house, they immediately guessed Ji Chenzhou's intention.
Then he immediately exaggerated the story and told it to Grandma Ji, who was furious when she heard it.
She and the old man were not dead yet, but this jinx wanted to divide the family. How could this be tolerated? Then he went to make trouble with Ji Chenzhou.
As soon as Ji Chenzhou saw her coming, he knew her intention and just let it go. It was a good opportunity as he didn't need to go over and say it specifically.
As soon as Old Lady Ji saw him, she started to curse him, saying all kinds of vicious words.
"You are such a jinx, such an unfilial son. Your mother hasn't even died yet and you want to separate from her family and live on your own. You are so unfilial."
"Yes, I want to split the family." Ji Chenzhou said expressionlessly.
When the other members of the Ji family heard this, they were shocked and immediately spoke out.
"Third brother, you can't do this. Isn't this a curse for your parents to die early? Whoever has parents who are still alive will divide the family property."
When Mrs. Ji heard this, she immediately became furious and started cursing.
"Are you cursing me to die soon? You actually want to divide the family, you jinx, you unfilial son, you money-loser."
Ji Chenzhou was too lazy to listen to Old Lady Ji's scolding any further. He looked indifferent and said in a cold voice, "I will find the team leader to discuss the division of the family. Grandpa told the team leader a long time ago that if I get married, I can live in the old house. The old house was left to me by him and grandma."
When Mrs. Ji heard this, her face immediately turned dark and she started cursing again.
But Ji Chenzhou's eyes turned cold and he stared at her.
Seeing this, Old Mrs. Ji felt cold and her hands began to tremble.
The Ji family members standing by looked at him and suddenly dared not say a word.
It was still Old Man Ji who stared at Ji Chenzhou and said, "Third brother, your mother and I are still alive, so we absolutely cannot divide the family property. Just give up on this idea."
Ji Chenzhou listened to what Old Man Ji said, and said in a cold voice with a blank expression: "If you don't split up, then forget about taking the money I give you every month. After all, I don't care about my reputation, no matter what the villagers say."
When the Ji family heard this, they were shocked. They didn't even want to give money.
Old Lady Ji's face immediately darkened. "How dare you think that, you jinx? Have you forgotten who raised you up? You are an ungrateful, heartless loser."
Ji Chenzhou's eyes were sharp when he heard this: "I was raised by my grandparents before, and when I grew up, I always worked hard and got full work points. Every year, I got a lot of food and money, which was more than enough for me to eat..."
Ji Chenzhou's meaning was very clear. He didn't rely on them for support at all. Instead, he supported quite a few people with full work points.
When the Ji family heard this, they fell silent.
But he didn't want Ji Chenzhou to share it, so he said it anyway.
"Third brother, we are all family, how can we distinguish so clearly?"
"That's right, we're all family, there's no need to make such clear distinctions."
Ji Chenzhou sneered as he listened to the Ji family's shameless words.
Now we are a family. Why didn’t I feel like they were a family before?
He was too lazy to argue with them and threatened them directly: "After I get married, we will separate immediately. If you still want five dollars a month, you'd better take the initiative to ask the captain. Otherwise, don't even think about taking money from me. I will keep my word and will not give you a penny."
Ji Chenzhou planned to buy peace and quiet with money. Besides, money was their weakness. For the sake of money, they would definitely be willing to split up. Otherwise, given how difficult the Ji family was, they would inevitably come to make trouble every few days.
When the Ji family heard that there was no room for negotiation, they immediately hesitated. They were afraid that if the family really did not split up and Ji Chenzhou did not give them a penny, then they would have to support him and He Zhiqing.
Finally, after weighing the pros and cons, Old Man Ji agreed.
"Okay, then you must keep your word and pay me."
When Old Mrs. Ji heard this, she was like, “Oh no! This won’t do. Five dollars is too little.”
Just as she was about to speak, she was stopped by Old Man Ji's eyes. In the end, she shut her mouth, but she was really dissatisfied, so her face was very dark.
"Don't worry, as long as I'm in Qinggang Brigade, your pension money will not be less."
There is a trap in what Ji Chenzhou said. As long as he is still here, I will give you the money. If he is gone, don’t dream about it.
After all, Ji Chenzhou has no feelings for the Ji family.
But now that money can buy peace, he is willing to pay first.
But he was unwilling to give more money. After all, his money was to be left to He Xianqiuhua.
After Ji Chenzhou had talked with the Ji family, he left contentedly.
The Ji family was left with a grim look on their faces. After all, they agreed to split the family because they were afraid that Ji Chenzhou would not give them the money.
But no one was willing to let Ji Chenzhou share.
After all, Ji Chenzhou worked in a soap factory and earned a lot of money every month. If the family was split up, that would mean the money would have nothing to do with them.
So think about it, no one in the Ji family is happy, they all have very gloomy faces.
But no matter how reluctant you are, you still have to separate.
Otherwise, given Ji Chenzhou's uncompromising attitude, don't even think about getting a penny from him.
So, not wanting to not get a single cent in the end, he agreed to Ji Chenzhou's division.
