Chapter 277 You can also recruit a son-in-law at home
After roasting for a while, Liao Jiu finally opened his eyes and said, "Help me change my clothes so I can go to the morning court."
“…”
Awesome!
Is this really the place they imagined?
Has it arrived or not?
I dare to think left or right in my heart, but I dare not say it out loud.
After holding it in for a while, he tentatively asked to the right, "How about we help you apply for a sick leave or something so you don't have to go today?"
"No, go ahead."
Too many people are watching his every move now, so he can't make any mistakes.
***
The first day of the first lunar month.
It is the time to pay New Year's greetings. Adults and children all wear new clothes, are in high spirits, visit relatives and friends, and pay New Year's greetings.
Dabao took the two children, Erbao and Nianbao, and they were the first to go to the headman's house to pay New Year's greetings.
The village head filled their pockets with delicious snacks. Jiang Lianzhu received people who came to pay New Year's greetings at home. People from the whole village came to their house to pay New Year's greetings. It was really lively, with people coming in groups one after another. Erya's mother tried to help serve tea, but she couldn't keep up.
Adults and children came and went in groups of three or five, filling up the room. After sitting for a while, they would leave in groups again.
The New Year celebrations in the countryside are so lively, not to mention the children, who are very lively and run in groups like little monkeys, full of joy and noise.
Fortunately, Jiang Lianzhu was in good spirits and stayed up all night to celebrate the New Year. She was still fine the next day.
When she woke up in the morning, she couldn't believe it. It was snowing heavily last night, and Liao Jiu flew over from the capital. He ate two roasted sweet potatoes with her, set off a string of firecrackers, and then flew back to attend the morning court.
That's a bit too crazy.
If it weren't for the Qinglian heater in her hand, she would have thought she might have had a ridiculous dream.
Liao Jiu must have some serious illness and his brain is cramping.
When Dabao woke up in the morning and saw the hand warmer, he asked her, what is this?
Jiang Lianzhu said it was just a hand warmer given to her by someone else.
Dabao took a few special glances at it and praised the hand warmer for its beauty. He wondered who had given it to him and thought it must be a rare and wonderful treasure.
Jiang Lianzhu replied happily, Of course not.
Even after walking a long way, Dabao still looked back...
At noon, the village head came to pay New Year's greetings to Jiang Lianzhu in person. Jiang Cheng prepared a meal and invited the village head to have the first lunch of the year at home.
The old uncle did not refuse, so Jiang Lianzhu simply invited Grandma Lu and her whole family to come over for dinner.
There were also villagers who happened to come to our house to pay New Year's greetings, and they filled up two large tables. Cooking during the New Year is very quick, as everything is cooked in advance and prepared in large quantities. Basically, they are all cooked dishes, steamed meat bowls, various meatballs, sausages, chicken nuggets, meat buns, dumplings, etc., which were all prepared before the New Year. You just need to steam them in a big pot, then stir-fry two vegetarian dishes, and you can start eating.
The children were happily playing in the snow.
Today, even Dabao took a rare half-day off to play with Erbao and the others.
Now, my second child, my daughter, is basically the most popular child in the village.
Especially Erbao, although he is young, everyone listens to him and he is already the king of the children. Erbao had a knot in his heart because of Duan Changdong's affairs, but now he has gradually let go and regained some of his mischievous talent.
Nanbao is a New Year picture doll, a round dumpling. She follows her second brother and plays with firecrackers.
Other little girls are quiet, pretty and very gentle. When they follow boys, they just look at them at most. But she is different. She is good at everything and is more manly than boys. She is strong and has a bad temper. If anyone disagrees with her, she will grab a child in each hand and push them all to the ground in the snow.
Jiang Lianzhu gave the three siblings firecrackers. She had already finished her own share, and gave half of Dabao's to her, but that was also all gone, so she set her sights on Erbao's.
Dabao and Erbao usually indulge their younger sister. They give whatever she wants, but they are afraid that she will get angry.
The children from other families, who had no firecrackers to play with, followed them and watched them set off firecrackers. The people watching were happier than the people setting off the firecrackers, and they cheered like crazy.
Holes were blasted all over the snow.
Every time a snow hole was blown away, the children screamed and laughed.
The second day of the Lunar New Year is not so lively, and many families go back to their parents' home with their families.
Since Jiang Lianzhu didn't go back to her parents' home, Jiang Chengshi lived with her and didn't have to go back.
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but sigh with Jiang Lianzhu, "Qingcai and your two brothers, I don't know where they are. They are definitely not at home, otherwise, they wouldn't have come to our house for so long."
Especially during the Chinese New Year, given their personalities, if there is no food at home and Jiang Cheng is with Jiang Lianzhu, no matter what happened in the past, they will definitely come with a thick face.
Jiang Lianzhu said, "Mom, don't worry about them. We just need to live a good life. People like them who are so immoral and have no conscience deserve to suffer."
Jiang Cheng sighed, "Well. Never mind them! Let's live a good life."
Having said that, she is actually still a traditional woman at heart. As long as Jiang Qingcai is alive, he is still her husband, and her two sons are her own children after all. No matter how bad, useless, or good-for-nothing they are, even after the anger has passed, she still misses him a little.
On the second day of the New Year, people from the Qu family and the Yuan family came to pay New Year's greetings to Jiang Lianzhu and others.
They brought quite a few holiday gifts, and Jiang Lianzhu also gave them a lot in return, so that they didn't suffer any loss.
After the first day of the new year, Dabao stopped hanging out with Erbao and the others. He stayed in the house every day to review his lessons.
Erbao took his sister Nanbao to play from one end of the village to the other, along with their two big snow wolves. Except for meal times and sleeping times, the two little guys were nowhere to be seen.
The fifth day of the first lunar month passed quickly.
The villagers probably have all their relatives gone, so they are free and have nothing to do.
Jiang Lianzhu paid wages to hire strong laborers to help her dig a pond.
There is a vacant lot next to the house. Jiang Lianzhu plans to dig a pond to grow lotus roots and raise fish. Lotus root is a good thing and can be eaten in many ways. Lotus seeds can be eaten raw, cooked into porridge, or used as medicine. Tender lotus leaves can also be eaten, and tender lotus root tips are also delicious. As for the large lotus root, it can be fried, stewed, or ground into lotus root powder.
Fish and lotus roots can be raised together. You don’t need to raise too many fish, just enough for your family and pets to eat.
She discovered that golden eagles prefer to eat fish, so it would be nice to give them extra meals in the future.
It's an empty space anyway, so it's just sitting there idle.
Although there is a small pond in the backyard, it is not big. It is used to raise fish and grow lotus roots, but it is mainly used to water the vegetables. There are several vegetable plots in the yard, and she also plans to raise pigs. Erya's family has no land, and the income from Erya's mother's embroidery is not stable. She plans to let Erya's mother help her raise pigs and chickens. If she raises more, she will pay the wages.
There are many kinds of vegetables. If people can't finish them, they feed them to pigs and chickens. The pig and chicken manure is used to feed fish...
This way it is recycled.
Anyway, Wangjia Village is their hometown and they cannot give it up.
In the future, when Dabao and Erbao marry, they can both marry in their hometown...
Even if your daughter doesn't want to get married, you can still find a son-in-law to live with you.
Ugh! You're thinking too far ahead.
