In Chenjia Village, Chen Jianguo came back from vacation and brought two large packages that Jiang Baige sent to his family.
There is no need to think about it, there must be New Year’s goods inside.
After the packages were opened, one package was found to be full of food, including candy, dried meat, bacon, sausage, peanuts, sunflower seeds, etc., filling a large bag.
As Zhou Xiuying took them out, she sighed, "Bai Ge, this girl, must have spent a lot of money on these!"
But she was very happy that her daughter-in-law was taking care of their family even before she got married.
While saying that buying these things is a waste of money, at the same time, he was very satisfied that his future daughter-in-law always thought of them when he had good things.
Chen Jiaojiao happily picked up a bag of candy and snacks and put them in her arms, saying happily: "These foods must have been sent to me by my sister, so I won't be polite."
She thought that she was the only one in her family who liked these things, and who else would give them to her if not herself.
But each bag weighed several kilograms, and she couldn't hold any more after taking two bags.
Chen Jianguo was speechless and asked, "Can you eat all this by yourself?"
Chen Jiaojiao pouted and said, "Why not? I can't eat slowly!"
Zhou Xiuying looked at her daughter and snatched back the food she had taken.
"How are you going to eat all this? We need to entertain guests during the New Year. Put it away for mom. I'll give you some to eat."
As she spoke, she put a bag of candy behind her.
He opened a bag of peanuts, grabbed a handful and gave it to his daughter, while still nagging her.
"Kid, you took all that. You can finish it in two days."
Chen Jiaojiao feels a little aggrieved, so give me more.
She knew that the candy had been taken away by her mother, and she would definitely not be able to find it when she wanted to eat it.
She said softly and coquettishly, "Mom, can you give me a handful of this candy too? I want to try it and see if it tastes good."
As she spoke, she opened the pocket of her cotton coat and asked her mother to grab some candy.
Seeing her daughter like this, Zhou Xiuying laughed and said, "Look at how old you are, and you're still acting like a spoiled brat!"
"We make our own candy in our village, and we still can't get enough!"
She said this, but her hands started moving.
He grabbed a handful of candy and put it in his daughter's pocket, and reminded her: "Eat it, but don't tell anyone outside. When people come to visit us, you have to serve them some."
When people come to the house during the Chinese New Year, they must prepare food to entertain them, but there are so many people in the village, how can they entertain them all?
Chen Jiaojiao replied, "It's snowing heavily, who am I going to tell?"
Chen Defu was smoking a cigarette while his wife and daughter were putting away the packages, and he was also laughing happily.
Their family seemed to be having a much better time this year. They had a lot of surplus at the end of the year and saved a hundred yuan.
The mother and daughter were looking at the package, and Four Eyes was running around beside them, wagging his tail and looking at it.
He tried to squeeze over several times, but Chen Jiaojiao pushed him away every time to prevent him from dirtying the food.
Chen Jiaojiao peeled a peanut and fed it to Siyan.
"Four Eyes, this is what my sister sent back, try it."
Siyan ate the peanuts with a crunching sound, and licked his lips constantly with his tongue.
Zhou Xiuying said, "Give him less food. Look how fat he has become."
In the more than one month since Jiang Baige left, Siyan has grown a lot. Zhou Xiuying has taken good care of him and he is as fat as a pig.
When Siyan heard what Zhou Xiuying said, he hummed a few times, but he actually still wanted to eat.
Seeing that Siyan was being disliked, Chen Jianguo whistled at him.
Siyan was not familiar with this man, nor was he close to him, but knowing that he was a family member, Siyan still came to him.
Chen Jianguo stared into his eyes and said, "Sit down."
Siyan had been trained by Jiang Baige. When he heard the order, he sat down obediently and stared at Chen Jianguo.
Chen Jianguo raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Siyan was so smart.
He added, "Handshake."
As he spoke, he reached out his hand.
Four Eyes raised his front paw again and shook hands with him.
Chen Defu stretched out his hand to warm himself by the fire, and when he saw that Siyan could do the same, he chuckled.
He laughed and said, "This four-eye is quite good, he can understand what people say. When did he learn it?"
Zhou Xiuying continued, "You don't usually care about what's going on at home, but Four Eyes knows a lot more. He's the one who lets the two chickens out in the yard in the morning and the one who locks them up in the evening. Did you know that?"
Chen Defu didn't know this yet, so he raised his hand and touched Siyan's head.
He added, "After spring comes, I'll take him to try catching rabbits. If he can do this, he'll be a good dog."
When Siyan heard that they seemed to be talking about him, he snorted, then looked at Chen Defu with a sidelong glance, stood up and raised his foot to dig his knee.
Chen Defu rubbed Siyan's head and asked, "Mother, did you give Siyan lunch?"
When Zhou Xiuying saw her son bringing back these two big packages and not even washing the bowls used for lunch, she had no intention of feeding the dog.
He slapped his thigh and said, "Oh no, I really forgot."
Chen Defu let out a long sigh: "Look at you, if I don't tell you, you will forget it. Forget it, I'll go."
As he spoke, he stood up from the stool.
Shouted: "Four Eyes, follow me."
When Siyan heard someone calling him, he quickly followed.
Chen Jiaojiao saw that all that was left in her pocket was meat, so she put it aside and became interested in another bag.
He smiled and said, "Mom, open this one and take a look!"
Zhou Xiuying originally wanted to put the meat away and watch it later, but seeing her daughter so anxious, she glared at her and then brought another package in front of her.
When the pockets were opened, there were cloth and several sets of clothes inside, all tied separately. There were also notes tied to the outside of the clothes with names written on them, indicating who the clothes belonged to.
Chen Jiaojiao took it out and saw that it was her father's name. It was a dark cotton coat. She looked at it and put it aside. It belonged to her father and she would wait for him to come and see it.
She thought her sister must have sent one to her as well, so she just wanted to look for her own.
Chen Jianguo saw his sister rummaging in her pockets, and actually wanted to do it himself.
He sent both packages to his father, and he thought he should have one too.
His eyes were fixed on Chen Jiaojiao's hand, trying to see whose item she took out. His name was not on it, so he looked into his pocket.
Chen Jiaojiao took out another bag and saw her mother's name on it. She said, "Mom, this is for you. This color looks good."
As she said that, she handed a bag of clothes to her mother.
Zhou Xiuying saw the clothes in her arms, picked them up, untied the rope, and lifted them up to take a look.
She said happily, "It's really beautiful. Bai Ge has really good taste."
He felt the material carefully, then added, "This dress must be very expensive. Why would that girl spend that much money? We have something to wear."
Chen Jiaojiao was talking to her mother while searching in her pocket.
"Mom, if you don't like it, just give it to me, okay?"
Zhou Xiuying pouted and said, "You wish, this was bought for me by your sister-in-law."
"Besides, you can't eat this size."
Chen Jiaojiao smiled and said, "I'll be able to wear it in two years."
Zhou Xiuying hugged the clothes tightly and said, "No way."
