Chapter 892: Housewarming (Additional Update 2)
When girls are together, there is always endless things to talk about.
Especially when there were more people, you said something and she said something. Until late at night, everyone could not resist the sleepiness that swept over them and fell asleep one after another.
Early the next morning, everyone was woken up by the smell of pork vermicelli stew.
"Who knows, I can eat hot pork stewed vermicelli when I wake up in the morning. These days are so happy. Yuan Xin sniffed, tears welling up in her eyes, "I remember when I was an educated youth, most of them At that time, we couldn't even have a meal of dry rice. Pork stewed with vermicelli could only be eaten when the new educated youths came.
In most cases, they only had seasonal vegetables, let alone meat, and even the vermicelli was in short supply.
Later, after she became familiar with Xu Wanning, she was often invited by Xu Wanning to come to his house for dinner. Mother Lin also often made pork stewed with vermicelli. Yuan Xin really remembered the taste for a long time.
Hearing Yuan Xin's words, Xu Wanning also recalled the days when she had just traveled through time, full of memories.
But now, everyone is getting better and better.
After dinner, Mother Lin wanted to clear away the dishes, but Chen Ye and others stopped her.
"Auntie, we just came here yesterday and we were not used to it. You have been busy for so long. Today, I can't let you do anything. Let us do it.
"Oh, you are guests, how can we let guests do work? The truth? "
When you invited us to dinner yesterday, you said you would treat this place as your own home. Don't be polite. Today you said we are guests?" If you really treat us as guests, then we have to leave after two days, otherwise we will cause too much trouble.
Mother Lin was defeated and said, "It's not that I won't let you wash. It's actually freezing cold today. Even if the water is boiled, , washing dishes is also very annoying. You all have delicate skin and tender flesh. If you wash dishes a few times, you will probably get frostbite.
"So I will wash the dishes, and you can help me clean the table and sweep the floor
." "Okay, I can do this job
." Then I'll sweep the floor.
After the work was done, Mother Lin stopped Xu Wanning and said, "A-Ning, do you have any extra fabric and cotton there?" I was thinking about our old mattress and mat, and brought it. The mattress is not the right size, and it curls up when I fall asleep, so I want to make a few more beds, but if there is not enough fabric, I will use more cotton and the mattress will be soft. But Xu Wanning's space was comfortable
and there was still a lot of fabric and cotton. It was not difficult to make a few mattresses and quilts.
But the problem was that when they returned to Dajiang Village from Beijing, they only took so many packages to make. She had already taken out a lot of clothes. If she took out more now, wouldn't she be telling everyone that there is something wrong with me and you should come check me out?
So, Xu Wanning denied it
. The cotton was all given to Tsuen Tsuen yesterday, and she asked Aunt Cheng to help make cotton jackets.
"But Lin An's friends should still have fabric and cotton, so I asked Lin An to buy some
." Then let Anzi buy it. I'll discuss something with you again.
"Mom, you said
, "Our new house has been built. According to the custom in the village, when you move to a new house, you have to treat everyone to a meal, which is commonly known as housewarming
." But I was thinking , We had already invited the villagers to dinner the day we came back. It would be inappropriate to invite them again, what do you think?"
Xu Wanning didn't think about this, mainly because after she traveled through time, the village also I haven’t seen anyone build a new house, so naturally I don’t know that when moving to a new house, they need to invite the villagers to eat.
Besides, they just moved from the old house to the new house. There is not much distance between the front and back of the house.
But since there is this custom, you must abide by it.
"It's not appropriate to invite the villagers to dinner. After all, we did so just after we came back. But we have built a new house anyway, and the villagers have helped a lot. If there is no expression, it is not appropriate. How about this, wait. Later, let Song Han and others get some food, go from house to house to announce the good news to everyone, and give some melon seeds, peanut candies and the like.
"Besides, everyone is not rich now, if we start this first and cover it later." The people who live in the house also have to treat guests like us, which invisibly increases the financial burden. It's better to give me something to have fun with, Mom, what do you think?
"I think it's OK, then I'll do as you say
. So after dinner, Mother Lin started to work. "
Xu Wanning brought out a lot of melon seeds and peanut candies, as well as biscuits and peach cakes from Limin Food Factory.
"These bags were specially purchased by Limin Food Factory to hold lucky bags. They have not been used up. There are still some left. I asked for them. Now they are just suitable for storing things.
Xu Wanning took the first one and grabbed it. I bought a handful of peanuts and a handful of melon seeds, five White Rabbit toffees and ten fruit-flavored hard candies with color-changing wrapping paper, and one bag each of small packages of biscuits and peach cakes
. The bag was filled to the brim.
It was very popular to give it away,
but it was much more economical than buying a meal.
Xu Wanning filled as many bags as there were in the village, and there was still some leftovers. She simply pretended to be a few more, and when she saw the senior and respected people in the village, she even told Song Han to give one to him alone.
On the other hand, Xu's mother quietly called Tao Manman aside.
" Manman, Auntie has something to discuss with you.
"Auntie, you said that
Xu's mother glanced at Xu Wanning first and saw that she was packing bags with Lin's mother and several sisters-in-law. She didn't notice this, so she lowered her voice and said to Tao Manman said: "The thing I want to tell you is about Aning.
"What's wrong with Aning?"
Xu's mother whispered: "Aning is pregnant
...pregnant? Taomanman said in surprise: "When did you discover it?" I didn't even hear An Ning say
, "An Ning just found out two days before you came. What An Ning meant was that she didn't plan to stay with this child, so she had to do it after she returned to Beijing after the New Year.
Taomanman was shocked again after a minor operation : "Why? Auntie, you may not know much about that kind of surgery, it is very harmful to the body. It is very likely that after the operation, Aning will never be able to have children again.
Xu's mother nodded: "Of course I know, but Aning already has Songhan and Jinchu. What does it matter whether she has another child in the future? "
Taomanman frowned: "But I still feel..."
Xu's mother patted Taomanman's hand and interrupted her unfinished words.
