Chapter 36: New Year’s Eve in the Old Qian family, another dispute!
Zeng Cheng teased her, "Didn't you spend a dime?"
Zhao Qianqian rolled her eyes: "What do you know? The extra dime I spent didn't go to the vendor. Besides, I'd be happy to give it to the child."
"Look how cocky you are."
"Hehe, as the saying goes, money can't buy my happiness!" She raised her eyebrows proudly at the man.
It’s the Chinese New Year.
Zhao Qianqian didn't want to argue with anyone.
If only the guy selling New Year pictures wasn't so cruel.
She wouldn't mind if the price of a 20-cent New Year picture was increased to 50 cents because it was the New Year.
But he insisted on charging 2 yuan for something that was selling for 20 cents!
Because I was delayed for a long time on buying New Year pictures.
So they didn't have time to continue shopping.
Soon the people from Qianjia Village gathered in Qianjia Village in the afternoon, and then took the village tractor back.
This is because Qianjia Village is rich, and the villagers can ride on tractors for free.
Other villages only have an ox cart at most.
Back home.
Thinking about going to the cowshed at night.
Zhao Qianqian quickly packed some meat buns and prepared to give them to Zeng Cheng's grandfather along with the medicine in the evening.
Except for buns and medicine.
Zhao Qianqian also prepared two kilograms of rice and two kilograms of flour for them.
It’s not that she’s unwilling to give more.
But in a place like the cowshed, it is impossible to hide extra things. Even if there are only one or two pounds of stuff, it is easy to explain.
If there are too many, it will be difficult to explain.
It will even implicate Zeng Cheng and Zhao Qianqian.
Cowshed.
The Qin family has all gone to bed.
I didn’t expect someone to be knocking on the bullpen.
They quickly got up to check what was going on.
It turned out that Zeng Cheng and his wife came.
Qin Shan really didn't expect Zeng Cheng to come again before the New Year.
He thought he would have to wait until after the New Year.
In addition to the medicines and quilts brought to them.
He also brought eight large meat buns, two bottles of malted milk, four pounds of fine grains, and some bacon.
This is enough for them to have a good year.
Qin Shan has already made his plan.
Tomorrow is the Little New Year, so I can cook some rice porridge and share the eight big meat buns.
Um.
Since they were sent to the cowshed, they have only had one meal a day.
After all, the villagers of Zhaojia Village only eat two meals a day.
They are in the bullpen and must be having a worse time than them!
Waited until the first day of the new year.
They live a little more lavishly and eat two meals a day.
In the morning, each person made a cup of malted milk and then cooked the 50 frozen dumplings.
Steam a pot of white flour buns in the evening and fry the bacon, and it will be a good New Year!
It seems like there is hope for this day!
actually.
In Qin Shan's impression, Zeng Cheng has always been a dandy, lazy and dissolute young man.
I didn't expect that one day.
He is actually being protected by this grandson!
The 30th day of the twelfth lunar month.
Today is New Year's Eve.
Because Zeng Cheng has no relatives in Qianjia Village.
So he and Zhao Qianqian were going back to Lao Qian's house to celebrate the New Year.
They are not freeloaders.
Zeng Cheng and Zhao Qianqian gave the Qian family a big gift before the Chinese New Year.
Two bottles of malted milk, two pounds of brown sugar, two pounds of pork ribs, two pounds of mutton, one pound of White Rabbit milk candy and one pound of red dates.
Of course, all these things are not for Lao Qian’s family.
Zhao Qianqian is giving face to Zhao's mother!
The reason why no pork was given.
That’s because Zeng Cheng and Zhao Qianqian don’t have much pork.
You see, in other villages, they would slaughter pigs and distribute the meat during the New Year.
But Qianjiazhuang is different.
Because this village is rich, many people have enough meat to eat.
It is better to divide the money than the pork.
Because if they have money, they can buy whatever they want.
The most important thing is.
If Qianjiazhuang wanted to share pork, it had to buy it from other villages.
Because Qianjiazhuang is not like other villages.
Their main business is farming and their side business is fish ponds.
But in other villages, the main occupation is mostly farming and the side job is pig raising.
so.
Qianjia Village simply didn’t give out anything during the New Year, not even fish.
It's not that they are stingy.
In fact, most people in Qianjia Village are tired of eating fish!
They chose to give money and let the villagers buy it themselves!
The villagers are also happy.
The holiday allowance is six yuan per person. If there are more than ten people in a family, that would be sixty or seventy yuan.
You said this money is more than enough for the New Year, right?
I have to say that Qianjia Village is rich and powerful!
Old Qian's family.
No matter how much disagreement there is among us?
But today the Qian family seems to be in great joy.
The family members have a clear division of labor: those who make dumplings make dumplings, those who light the fire light the fire, and those who cook cook.
Soon the reunion dinner for the New Year’s Eve was ready.
There are more than a dozen people in the family.
There are two tables of food.
Today's Qian family reunion dinner was still very sumptuous.
The staple food is dumplings.
Where are the dishes?
Cold mixed dishes, spicy chicken, braised fish, stir-fried shredded potatoes, pork stewed with cabbage, and mutton soup.
The dishes at the other table were exactly the same.
The staple food is dumplings.
In addition to the above, there are also various pastries, as well as snacks such as melon seeds and peanuts.
There are even rare fruits, such as apples and pears.
The main reason is that there are several people in the Qian family who are on welfare.
Old Man Qian is a regular employee, and Qian Ertian is a temporary worker.
Brother Zhao and Zhao Qianqian are both regular employees.
In addition, Zeng Cheng's father also mailed a lot of tickets.
You say it all adds up.
What would the Qian family lack?
It was supposed to be a very happy year.
But after everyone has eaten together, it is inevitable to chat.
As they chatted, they talked about Qian Sanya's marriage.
Then……
Qian Sanya started to make trouble.
She was very jealous of the happy life of Zeng Cheng and Zhao Qianqian.
Even resentment!
So she teased Zhao Qianqian in a sarcastic tone, "Zhao Qianqian, speaking of my marriage, I want to know how you hooked up with your brother-in-law. I want to learn how to seduce men from you."
Zhao Qianqian admitted it.
The original owner was wrong in this matter.
But compensation had already been given at that time, and Qian Sanya also agreed.
Now that you have the money, why are you still cursing?
You can complain if you want.
You can find fault if you want.
Why don’t you return the 150 yuan compensation you asked for?
Let’s talk about it later.
Now she and Zeng Cheng are husband and wife, and Qian San Ya pesters Zeng Cheng every day, so she has the nerve to do that?
Not to mention that Zhao Qianqian didn't think the fault was entirely the original owner's.
Even if it was all the original owner's fault.
But what does it have to do with Zhao Qianqian now?
She won't give in.
So Zhao Qianqian replied in a rather gloomy tone, "Sister Sanya, you are quite capable, aren't you? You sent food and drinks to Zhou Wen and Zhou Zhiqing."
Speaking of this.
Zhao Qianqian suddenly thought of the Qian family, which was no longer managed by Zhao's mother.
But it was Qian Ertian’s wife, Xia Lan, the housekeeper.
"You're just giving food and drink to that poor educated youth. You don't know how hard it is for your second sister-in-law to be the head of the household." Zhao Qianqian deliberately provoked: "It seems that you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar are, but you keep giving them away."
As soon as these words came out.
Not to mention others, Qian Ertian and his wife must have looked unhappy.
Their housekeeper has already lost money in the past two months and feels very bad.
I originally thought it was because the housekeeper was inexperienced as a first-time housekeeper.
Unexpectedly...
There is actually someone in the family who is a traitor!
Don’t even mention that Qian Ertian and his wife are unhappy.
Even Old Man Qian and Qian Daniu were unhappy after hearing this!
