Foolish Man
Chapter 190
What happened to Ning Kaijuan and Li Da that night, Xiao Qi didn't know and didn't care.
Anyway, Li Da came back to his grandparents with Ning Kaijuan the next day. When he saw Xiao Qi, he couldn't help grinning and thanked Xiao Qi first.
When he finished meeting with Mrs. Ning and coaxing his future father-in-law and mother-in-law, Li Da finally had time to talk to Xiao Qi.
If Li Da was still trapped in the ice cave in the twelfth lunar month of winter yesterday, and wished to freeze himself to death, then today is jumping into the spring sun, the spring breeze is proud, and his face is blushing to see what happened last night. Good thing, itchy hands.
"Xiaoqi, you are really the great star of my life, your aunt said, after the new year, we will have a good day and book the marriage first, and don’t say what guests will be, just eat it with the family. Pause... This year I will spend the New Year with you here, and next year, Sister Juan will go home with me for the New Year. Let’s say we will spend a year..."
There are some nonsense that seems to show affection, Xiao Qi has not thought about it, anyway, this guy is so proud and wants to find a place to vent, just like looking for a tree hole.
After finally finishing talking for a while, Ning Kaijuan asked Li Da to help kill the chicken. Xiao Qi curled his index finger and scratched his cheek, turned his head and rubbed against Ning Qian who was helping to place the dried fruit candy, and asked Ning Qian inexplicably, "Rabbit. , Do you think my face is so empathetic, gentle and considerate at first glance?"
Ning Qian held her belly and bent over and put the woven dustpan on the cabinet. She couldn't help but laughed out loud. She raised her eyes and glanced at Xiao Qi unanimously, "You really think about it, just you?"
Ning Xi walked out of the kitchen with two plates of bacon sausages. She laughed a lot of fakes. She laughed so terribly that she could not accept it. "Brother-in-law, are you telling a joke?"
So I laughed out of the face.
"Hey you girl..."
Xiao Qi raised his hand and gestured to clean up her, scared Ning Xi and ran away smiling.
The grandfather and grandma sat on the sofa and looked at them and laughed. The gaps in their teeth that were almost the same were exposed. It can be seen that all the family members have come over today, and the old couple are very happy.
Today, Ning Kaiguo is in charge of the kitchen. Pei Qing and Ning Kaijuan are the helpers. In other words, it is a rare lively year for their Ning family. In previous years, there were only a few people who were no longer lively.
Qianqian is quiet, and Xixi always wants to go out and play blindly with this friend and classmate. It is inevitable that a year will pass by a little deserted.
But this year is very different. The eldest daughter is married, but their Ning family has no young people, instead they have a son-in-law. Ning Xi doesn’t go out and mess around, just stay at home obediently, even if it’s busy. Can't help but gluttonously eat from time to time, at least people are still at home.
In addition, what pleased the Ning family the most was that the youngest daughter Juanjuan had plans to marry again. Although it is said that the matter is settled first, it is almost the same as getting married.
Ning's grandparents are all people of this old age. They are not suitable for Li Dashi, whether they are suitable for their age, and whether they are gossiping or not, they don't care too much.
To put it bluntly, they all live by counting the days, and it is enough to live one more day and enjoy the blessing of children and grandchildren for a while.
Whether it's good or bad, after all, there is such a reliable grandson-in-law as Xiao Qi, and Grandpa Ning is still very relieved.
Xiao Qi has been married for the past six months. It is not just that he goes to his mother-in-law’s home to eat and drink every few days, but also his grandparents have never relaxed. If Xiao Qi knew that he was considered a reliable person, he would not know what to say. What.
This year I ate the New Year’s Eve dinner from morning to night, and watched the Spring Festival Gala together. Although the old lady and the old lady were happy and wanted to stay with everyone for a while, they were persuaded to go back by their sons, daughters, daughters, and granddaughters. We wanted to eat glutinous rice **** together and wait for grandparents to pay the New Year's greetings, so Xiao Qi and the others didn't leave, so they just rested here.
The room is not enough, so set up a sofa and folding bed in the main room.
The two young men, Li Da and Xiao Qi, slept in the hall with the TV on. Ning Xi and Ning Qian had always had rooms here, as did Pei Qing and Ning Kaiguo.
Originally, Ning Kaijuan was thinking about going to Ning Qian’s two sisters to squeeze all night so that Li Da and Xiao Qi could sleep on the bed, but Xiao Qi was reluctant, and jokingly dispelled Ning Kaijuan’s idea.
Just kidding, his rabbit is still pregnant. The bed is an old-fashioned canopy bed. It can't be said to be particularly spacious. Three people don't say that the adults can not sleep well. It is dangerous if the baby in the belly is accidentally pounded by someone's foot or arm. .
Seeing Xiao Qi being so nervous about Ning Qian, Ning Kaijuan also said that Ning Qian should be allowed to sleep alone. Xiao Qi has something to say again. Ning Qian can’t stay warm on the quilt for a long time, so she will die when she falls asleep. A pig-like sister-in-law sleeping with his rabbit couldn't be better.
Why did Xiao Qi know what Ning Xi looked like after falling asleep? Haven't I seen Ning Xi taking a nap on the sofa once? Since then, in addition to the noisy frog, Ning Xi has added a "nickname" to Xiao Qi.
I'm afraid Ning Xi knows that in the future, at the risk of being beaten, he wants to completely resist the "great rebellion".
In the morning, Xiao Qi was awakened by a burst of crackling firecrackers. Fireworks and firecrackers are not allowed in the downtown area of Furong City, but the grandparents here is a special reserved area.
Although it is not a suburb, the lifestyle is similar. Most of the people staying nearby are older elderly people. After the Chinese New Year, children and grandchildren have returned. Many customs and customs are also preserved. I let it go at 12 o'clock last night. Firecrackers.
This morning at four or five o’clock almost half of the sky resounded, not to mention that the Baoen Temple on the mountain was also early in the morning. Many people specially drove in line to wait, just to be able to go to the incense burner in Baoen Temple on the first day of the new year. Put the first stick of incense in it, and make a fortune in the new year.
In order to please the omen, the incense stick is thicker and longer than the other, so it is not surprising that a few thousand dollars are spent.
Xiao Qi couldn't bear to do such a stupid thing. If he had the money, it would be better to stay and buy more clothes for the children.
Grandparents woke up early on the first day of the first year, and the family woke up as soon as five o’clock. They talked and laughed and finished their breakfast. When the glutinous rice **** were served, one by one sat around the table and didn’t rush to move the chopsticks. Grandparents smiled and handed the red envelopes in red paper to everyone.
After giving out the red envelopes, my grandparents said two auspicious words for the New Year. Then they moved their chopsticks together and ate the first bite of rice in the belly of the new year. Peanuts and sesame fillings are more blessed for children and grandchildren.
Speaking of Pei Qing and Ning founding the country are somehow in their 60s, and they have to receive red envelopes from their parents. It is a bit funny to say it, but it is a specific habit in the Ning family. As long as they have elders above them, then they are They will always be "children" who need New Year's Eve money to press pillows.
This kind of feeling that the old people are still needed by the younger generations makes the two old people very happy and satisfied. Ning Kaiguo and the others are usually filial to the two elders in money. This new year's money is not difficult at all, and it is always taken to make the elderly happy. , Just go back and find a rebate to make up for it.
This is the first time that Xiao Qi has received a red envelope from an elder. Even when his mother was alive before wearing it, it was because the family was too poor and there was no New Year's Eve. Clothes to wear for the New Year.
Xiao Qi got the red envelopes and it was quite new.
The red envelopes are not the kind of finished products bought on the market. You can see that they are stacked by themselves. They are even made of rice milk cooked by themselves.
"The red envelopes were folded by grandma themselves. They bought the red paper in advance and sent them to the Buddha on the mountain to enshrine the incense, and then cut them out and boiled the glutinous rice paste and paste them. When my milk was young, we would let us take the money in the red envelopes. After we came out, the empty red envelopes were pressed into the pillowcases to let us sleep, saying it could ward off evil spirits."
What the old people say is the same, nothing more than blessing the family against disaster and pain.
Ning Qian saw Xiao Qi look at it over and over, and leaned over to talk to Xiao Qi quietly about her childhood.
These years have been such a habit. It was the first time for Xiao Qi to spend the New Year with them at home. It was inevitable to be curious and fresh, so Ning Qian also said something about their New Year in the past.
The Ning family is not a native of Furong City, and it was moved from elsewhere, so it was supposed to go to the grave for the ancestors on the first day of the first year. So the event was cancelled.
There are many customs of the Spring Festival in China. In Province C, you will not go out to visit relatives on the first day of the new year. At most, you will visit your neighbors in the neighborhood in the morning, and you will not officially start visiting relatives until the second year.
When they returned to their parents' home in the second grade, Xiao Qi and Ning Qian went directly to Pei Qing and the others. As for the Xiao family in Chi Na City, there was no movement at all. It is estimated that there is no such person as Xiao Qi. It made Xiao Qi worry a lot easier.
Speaking of Zhou Jinbao lost his job by Xiao Qi, he couldn't find a satisfactory job until the New Year, so he could only go home for the time being.
As for meeting Xiao Qi who was suspected of coming to buy a car in the store, Zhou Jinbao was persuaded by his mother for a while, and he was frightened by his mother in a mess, and felt that this matter is better not to be mixed up.
Therefore, there was no news from the Xiao family. The Xiao family was frightened twice, and they did not dare to have other ideas.
Of course, I said I didn't dare to think, but I knew that I couldn't realize it. After all, no one at home could take the lead.
Xiao Wei is just a den who can only rob primary school students in the game hall, not to mention Xiao Duo, his brain is not enough, and a man ran away and had to lure a child over five months old.
Xiao Daming disliked Xiao Duo for embarrassing his family. He found a rural guy who was pleasing to the eye and gave him permission to go out. The wedding was not held, so the family had a meal together. The relatives informed him and talked about it. The marriage certificate is considered complete.
Zhou turned out that since he was going to go to Furong City to find Xiao Qi with him last time, it was also because Tu Fushen, who was said to have friends on the road, took the lead in the arrangement, but now Tu Fushen inexplicably left his job and discarded Xiao Duo and Xiao Duo who said he was going to marry home. The kid in the belly ran away.
Zhou turned out to see how powerful the moneylenders were, so naturally he didn't dare to mess around with his sister anymore.
It is said that the relationship is good, but in fact it is the same. Everyone has their own family. If there is no benefit, who and who are willing to take risks.
The Xiao family now doesn't have a serious source of economic resources. They can only rely on raising pigs to grow the land. Like other rural people, they can make a little profit from the fields. Even the Xiao family is worse than other families.
After all, other families still have strong labor to work outside to earn money, but the Xiao family is squatting at home with the whole family, and there is also a son who has made a group of iron buddies in the town who is consciously accustomed to making money. It will be sooner or later if this family is defeated.
The author has something to say: Xiaoqi: There is still new year's money [I can’t help but fall into contemplation while holding the red envelope]
Ning Qian: Why, haven't received it before? [Distressed eyes]
Xiaoqi: No, rabbit, I have decided. Let’s have a few more children. When the time comes for the Chinese New Year, we will take the children and walk around with relatives. The money we get will be enough for the children to spend all year round. Isn’t it the same as using other people’s money to raise your own baby?
