The children didn’t expect that their aunt would be pulled by the ears by the grandma. They thought that when they grew up, they would not be pulled by adults by their ears.
"Tell me, when did you start dating, where is he from, what does he do for a living, tell me everything clearly." Liang Xueying said seriously.
Guo Yu: “At the end of August, a colleague at the hospital introduced me to a partner.
He is the eldest son of our hospital director. Zhou Feng is a soldier, and we just started dating two days ago.
He was the one who drove me back this morning. He said the marriage registration had been filed and his family would come to visit on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year."
Guo Youxing: "..." The cabbages in our garden are about to be eaten by pigs, and they are state-owned pigs.
Liang Xueying: "I thought so. You're home so early today. Okay, since he's already filed a report, we can talk about anything when they come to visit on the fourth day of the New Year."
I'll deal with her at night. After all, some private matters are not good to be said in front of others.
Others just listened but didn't dare to express their opinions.
"Oh." Guo Yu was afraid that his mother would get angry, so when he saw that no one was eating, he quickly cleaned up the dishes and went into the kitchen.
This matter was put on hold.
After that, everyone started to get busy. The Guo Jianping brothers boiled water and killed chickens, Guo Youxing put up Spring Festival couplets, Liang Xueying washed vegetables, and Guo Yu took care of the children.
Li Chunyan and Deng Qingling are peeling peanuts and chestnuts for cooking in the evening.
At noon, I made a simple lunch, fried some peanuts, steamed a plate of egg custard, and had a pot of corn and multi-grain porridge.
The main dishes are in the evening.
After lunch, Deng Qingling took the children back to the house for a nap.
As soon as they woke up, Liang Xueying said that the bath water was ready and she would give the child a bath first.
Liang Xueying and Guo Yu gave the children a bath respectively, and Liang Xueying also made two small pigtails for Guo Ninghuan.
Tie a bow on your head made by Deng Qingling.
Liang Xueying also deliberately put a small red dot between her eyebrows.
Guo Ninghuan was also wearing a red cotton-padded jacket with the word "Fu" embroidered on it. He looked very festive, like the golden boy and jade girl under the seat of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
No, she looks more like the lucky doll in the New Year pictures, cute and festive.

This year's New Year's Eve dinner was eaten later than last year, and was not served until around six o'clock.
This year's New Year's Eve dinner was particularly sumptuous, with eight dishes and one soup, a plate of boiled chicken, a plate of braised pork belly with chestnuts, a plate of tofu with green onions, a plate of stir-fried sauerkraut with oil residue, a pot of steamed eggs, a plate of stir-fried bacon with garlic sprouts, a plate of fried peanuts, a plate of stir-fried cabbage with oil residue, and a mushroom chicken soup.
The custom here is not to kill animals on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so we will prepare more dishes and they can be eaten after a little processing on the first day of the New Year.
After Guo Youxing, the head of the family, gave his annual summary, we started eating.
He originally wanted to say a few more words, but he saw his grandchildren drooling as they looked at the food on the table.
This dish is so delicious that even adults would drool, not to mention children.
Guo Youxing didn't say anything about this. As usual, he put a piece of meat into Liang Xueying's bowl and started eating.
The New Year’s Eve dinner was over as everyone was talking and laughing.
Everyone ate until their bellies were full and they were very satisfied.
Liang Xueying cleaned up the leftover food, and Guo Yu cleared the dishes and went to wash them.
Deng Qingling and Li Chunyan returned to their room to pack red envelopes. After distributing them, they sat by the fireplace and drank tea and chatted with everyone.
The children couldn't sit still, so they grabbed some snacks, took the clockwork tin frog and glass beads that Guo Yu had bought, and went out to play.
Deng Qingling told them not to play with firecrackers and ignored them.
"Chun Yan, you can drink some of this honeysuckle tea, but don't drink too much, a small cup will be enough.
You can drink more during the late stages of pregnancy; this tea can remove fetal toxins." Deng Qingling said as she took a sip of the scented tea.
This is what someone else told her.
It can indeed remove fetal toxins. When her child was born, he was clean and had very little vernix caseosa. He also did not get sore eyes as to have eye mucus because she ate ginger during the confinement period.
"I understand. There are many things I don't understand. Fortunately, my sister-in-law reminded me." Li Chunyan said to Deng Qingling with gratitude.
During the time she was at home taking care of her pregnancy, Deng Qingling told her a lot of things to pay attention to during pregnancy. She also often went to the mountains to catch pheasants and made soup for her to nourish her body.
(At this time, if Deng Qingling knew Li Chunyan's thoughts, she would probably say: Sister, you misunderstood, you were just passing by.)
"Remember to ask mom to pack some for you to take back to the county town when the time comes," Deng Qingling reminded.
"Okay, I understand." Li Chunyan nodded.
Guo Jianjun felt relieved when he saw that they were talking happily. It seemed that what his daughter-in-law said was true and she got along well with her elder sister-in-law.
On the other side, Liang Xueying and Guo Yu were talking privately in the room.
"Since you've made up your mind, your parents won't say anything to you. In the past, your parents saw people your age already had several children.
You haven’t gotten married yet, and your parents are worried about you, but now you have a partner, and you will get married in a while. I feel sad just thinking about it..." Liang Xueying started crying as she spoke.
Thinking that her daughter, who had always acted like a spoiled child to her since she was a child, was about to marry into someone else's family and become a daughter-in-law, her heart was filled with loss, reluctance and worry. It was easy to be a daughter but difficult to be a daughter-in-law, and she didn't know what the other person was like or whether it was easy to get along with her.
Guo Yu was infected by Liang Xueying's emotions and couldn't help but have red eyes and shed tears.
Guo Yu wiped his tears, forced a smile, and said coquettishly: "Mom, it's New Year's Day, why don't you cry? You always urged me to find a partner before, and now I have found one, which is a good thing!
Besides, I haven’t married yet. Even if I do, I will come home to see you often.”
Hearing her daughter's comfort, Liang Xueying wiped away her tears and smiled, as if the scene just now had never happened.
Although Guo Yu always brings a lot of bags home, Liang Xueying actually feels worried when she sees her.
This girl hasn't been home for a long time, she misses and worries about her, and when she comes back, she gets mad at her.
Although she only earns about 30 yuan a month, she spends money lavishly.
She wouldn't listen and kept making excuses, saying that she bought these to honor her parents and to appease her nephews and nieces, and that there was nothing wrong with her working hard to earn money and buying some nice things.
Others want a daughter as filial as her, but none of them do.
Liang Xueying was so angry that she wanted to hang her up and beat her up.
Although it is a good thing that my daughter respects her parents and loves her nephews and nieces, she is stingy with money!
If Guo Yu hadn't said that it couldn't be returned, she would have wanted to run to the county town to return the goods.
"Mom, let's go out and stay up all night!" Guo Yu said.
I guess this will be the last time I spend the New Year's Eve with my family.
Although she looked forward to living with Zhou Feng in the future, she still felt reluctant to leave her parents and this home.
