Chapter 1371 Home
Yu Lu tilted her head slightly, her smile growing wider, and pointed at the tree in front of her, "I am laughing at the fact that the little tree can withstand so much snow."
She didn't tell the truth. Could she tell her husband that life was not easy? What if her husband really wanted to make her unhappy in the Wang family?
Wang Wei glanced at his wife who was supporting him and said, "It's cold outside, let's go back."
"Well, did you eat anything at my brother-in-law's house?"
Wang Wei, "It's a stewed lamb pot. My brother-in-law is too polite. I said I would come back for dinner but he wouldn't let me."
"It's rare for you to go there."
The Spring Examination will be held next year. My husband is very busy every day and has not left the house for some time.
"You look a little tired, you must be exhausted."
Yu Lu was happy that her husband could see that she was tired, which showed his concern for her. "I have rested for a while."
"I know the end of the year is very busy. If you are tired, take more rest and don't overwork yourself."
Yu Lu shook her head, "Giving gifts during the New Year is the fastest way to understand a relationship. Don't worry, I know my limits."
"Um."
The New Year comes a few days after the Little New Year. The Zhou family celebrates the New Year in a very lively manner. At night, fireworks are set off everywhere, lighting up the entire capital city.
After celebrating the New Year, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren couldn't bear it and went to bed early. They were also the first ones to get up in the morning.
In the entire mansion, only servants were busy working, while the masters were still sleeping soundly.
Zhulan and Zhou Shuren walked along the path. The yard was full of servants sweeping up the shells of fireworks. "I don't know how long the fireworks lasted last night."
Zhou Shuren snorted, "The children are all grown up, and their own coffers are full. If each of them buys a little, it will add up to a lot."
When he was at home, his wallet was calculated by his son every day. The brat even brought his great-granddaughter with him. The little girl was at her cutest, and he called her "Grandpa" so sweetly. As a result, his wallet was empty. These fireworks must have been contributed by him.
Zhulan also thought of it and laughed, "If you wish me a happy new year, I will give you a big red envelope."
Zhou Shuren was happy, "It must be bigger than the children."
"Your requirements are really low."
Zhou Shuren, "No matter how much I want, your son will care about it. It's enough if I give more than their red envelopes."
Zhu Lan glared, "It's just what you're used to."
Zhou Shuren sighed, "Year after year, I feel more and more reluctant to leave."
Zhulan was silent. They both wanted to see their son get married and have children.
The two of them took a walk and returned to the main courtyard. They had breakfast together. After resting for a while, they arrived at their rooms one after another.
The Zhou family didn't have any new additions this year, but Changyi came back, and the children got an extra red envelope, a big one at that, and they called him "Second Uncle" and "Second Uncle" so sweetly.
Zhulan’s red envelope remained unchanged, and after paying New Year’s greetings, this year’s New Year has passed.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, married daughters returned home. However, Zhou family's daughter-in-law Ran Wan was pregnant and could not go back so she did not go. The other daughters-in-law had no parents to return to. Xuemei and Xuehan came back, and together with Yushuang and Yulu, the second day of the Lunar New Year was considered a real reunion year for the Zhou family.
This year's new bride, Mu Lan, received the most attention, received the most red envelopes and made a small fortune.
Zhou Shuren took his sons away, and the boys of his grandchildren's generation also went out, leaving only the women in the house.
Zhulan couldn't go to the Wang family in person, as if she was worried about Yulu. Li wanted to go often, but she stopped her. Only when Yulu came back could Zhulan see her granddaughter. "Is the child still bothering you?"
Yu Lu shook her head, "She's not making a fuss anymore. She's very well behaved now."
Yu Lu felt at ease when she returned home. No one was staring at her and finding fault with her all the time. She could sit and lean back in any comfortable position. Her parents' home made her feel relaxed.
During her first New Year in the Wang family, she only felt tired and exhausted. New Year's Eve was okay, but New Year's Day was very lively. She could always find some faults with the second and third rooms.
The fat baby in Yu Shuang's arms had just woken up and was clinging to its mother. It wouldn't let Zhao hold it in her arms. Yu Die and a few others were surrounding the baby.
Li was chatting with her elder sister-in-law, while Su Xuan was chatting with Xue Han. The room was very lively.
Zhulan was in a daze. She seldom recalled the scenes of celebrating the New Year in modern times. But today she recalled it again. It was better when her grandparents were still alive. Later, she mostly celebrated it by herself because she felt like an outsider whenever she was with her parents.
In ancient times, she was the absolute center of attention, and everyone surrounded her. Zhulan looked at Yujiao and Yudie, who were making a fuss again, and said, "You two should be careful not to get the melon seed shells on your sister-in-law."
Yudie stuck out her tongue and became obedient. She pushed the fruit in front of her to her sister-in-law and said, "Sister-in-law, eat the apple. You will be safe and sound in the future."
Ran Wan likes Yudie the most among her sisters-in-law. Yudie has a liveliness that she doesn't have. "Okay, everything is fine."
Li said cheerfully, "I just listen to Dier's words."
Zhao finally got her grandson. She felt like a relative of a different generation. After the boy was born, she would go to her daughter's house whenever she had nothing to do. At the end of the year, she was busy and hadn't seen her grandson for a while. She heard her eldest sister-in-law say, "Sister-in-law, don't praise her. Her tail should fly to the sky."
Yujiao rolled her eyes and said, "Then I want to see Third Sister's tail."
Yuyi grabbed her sister's clothes and said, "I think you want me to help you."
Yu Jiao became honest, "Sister, I didn't say anything just now, it was Fifth Sister who said it."
Yu Wen was distracted, and after hearing this, she thought, "This is such a blatant blame."
Yu Jiao exclaimed, "Fifth sister is not asleep yet."
Then everyone laughed, and Yu Wen rolled up her sleeves, "Fourth sister, help me catch her."
In the front yard, Zhou Shuren took his son and son-in-law to play cards, but Zhou Shuren just didn't want to play.
As Zhou Laoda was playing, he sighed, "I already have a granddaughter, and next year I will have two more grandchildren."
Zhou Laoer was not envious, "I also have a grandson."
Jiang Sheng paused, "Maybe I want to be a grandfather too?"
This news brought silence to the poker table, and Zhou Shuren was also stunned.
Rongchuan was not jealous, he wished his daughter and son grew up slower. He did not want to marry his daughter off. When he thought of those marquises, he just didn't want to.
Jiang Sheng saw that everyone was looking at him and felt embarrassed. "No, I said maybe, maybe."
Changzhi, "I think my brother-in-law is missing his grandson."
Jiang Sheng, "......"
Not really, I was thinking about his parents instead.
In another room, Mingyun and his friends were playing games in groups of two. Mingyun smiled and said, "I'm the boss, so I'll choose the people first. How about this, since I'm already an official in the court, I can't bully you. I'll choose Mingjing."
Ming Hui chuckled twice, "Brother is treacherous."
Changzhong is just a spectator, "Then don't play games that involve memory."
Mingyun remained calm, "Okay."
Mingjing trembles whenever he sees the eldest brother. Ever since he was exposed, he has fallen into the hands of the eldest brother. Looking at the other brothers who think they are taking advantage, he laughs in his heart, you know too little about the eldest brother!
