Chapter 53: Filial piety

Cheng Yue'e was also anxious on the side, and her husband Xu Jingqiang was even more crazy to give her a look, wanting her powerful mouth to win back a city at a critical moment.

But Xu Zhinian didn't give them a chance to argue, and directly asked everyone to hurry up to eat.

A large table of meals is prepared, and there is nothing more important for a half-sized child than dry rice.

Therefore, no one wanted to listen to Cheng Yue'e, and the family gathered around the table to start building directly.

The second family's meal was very unpleasant, and they were angry.

They couldn't figure out how they got into the trap, it seemed that Xu Zhinian hadn't said anything excessive, but they were just aggrieved and couldn't vent it.

Like a whirlwind of clouds, the food on the table was quickly eaten.

Song Shuzhi is a diligent person, and she subconsciously wanted to put away the dishes and chopsticks, but Xu Zhinian held down her wrist.

"Mother, you can't do this, that's what you're wrong. Xu Zhinian opened his mouth to blame, which made Song Shuzhi a little confused: "I, what's wrong with me?"

"Mother, you are always rushing to work like this, it seems that my two aunts are treacherous, lazy, gluttonous, and slippery, you don't give people a chance to behave, are you wrong?"

After Xu Zhinian finished speaking, he pointed to the plates and bowls on the table and said: "Look at it, these twenty or so dishes are all made by you, my father and my eldest brother, and others have eaten a ready-made one, and they haven't moved a finger, you are like this, what do grandparents think? Just because our family is diligent, if this spreads, won't the neighbors laugh at the second and third aunts? And my brothers, they are all half-grown young men, they eat more than the other, and when they finish eating, they leave, so they won't become nephews?"

After Xu Zhinian finished speaking, the faces of the people who didn't work were red and hot, isn't this scolding without dirty words?

Before everyone could react, Xu Zhinian continued: "Dad, mother, hurry up and go home, you and your father have not yet taken the gift of filial piety to grandparents." ”

"What, what's the big gift?" Xu Jingdong wondered for a while, he brought the Kaijiang fish, what else could he have?

Xu Zhiqiu reacted, and hurriedly made a color with Xu Jingdong, although Xu Jingdong didn't understand, he immediately understood and said, "Okay, then let's go home and get it." ”

So, the family left in a hurry, leaving only a table of cups and plates.

Cheng Yue'e glanced at Zhang Guilian: "Third daughter-in-law, we didn't eat a few bites just now, the fire in this stomach can't be eaten at all, your family eats a lot, you come to wash the dishes." ”

Zhang Guilian is usually very obedient, but she doesn't want to be bullied during the Chinese New Year, so she straightened her waist and said: "Why, I just saw that the second brother's ribs are not missing, why should I do it when it comes to washing the dishes?"

"Who are you not going to do, who just spoke out of tune?"

Cheng Yue'e meant that she was still angry just now.

Zhang Guilian offended her future daughter-in-law.

Zhang Guilian didn't want to accept her fate like this, and muttered in a low voice: "I don't look like a serious person, I don't care, this job is just one person and a half, I brush the dishes and you brush the dishes!" Don't always pinch soft persimmons!"

With that, she got up and took the plate out.

......

The atmosphere in the old house was tense, but the atmosphere of Xu Zhinian's house was joyful.

Xu Jingdong and Song Shuzhi never dreamed that their poor family could buy a color TV, and they didn't touch a penny of their family's savings, which were exchanged for scraps.

"You two are really good, this precious thing is put in the warehouse, what if it gets damp and spoiled!" Song Shuzhi's hand carefully stroked the color TV, and her eyes were filled with tears.

"Who came up with the idea, it's not good to keep this money to marry a daughter-in-law?" Although Xu Jingdong was reproachful, his eyes were full of joy - a color TV set was too precious for a lifeless home.

"Dad, mother, money is not saved, it is earned, my eldest brother can earn the first color TV, can earn the first sewing machine, the first bride price, the first house! ”

Xu Zhinian looked at Xu Zhiqiu with burning eyes, Xu Zhiqiu felt the confidence he had never had, he straightened his waist and said: "Dad, mother, you can watch this TV steadily, I have the strength of my hands and feet, and I can still earn it in the future, you don't have to worry about marrying a daughter-in-law......"

Xu Zhiqiu thought of Li Qinglan, and the corners of his mouth had a sweet smile.

"Big brother, you can't be someone who has already been chosen, right?" The second brother Xu Zhiqi saw a clue and scolded Xu Zhiqiu.

"Oh, people may not want to, anyway, I'll try to chase it!"

"Big brother, you have the courage, I think it's okay! Maybe, in a few days, the future sister-in-law will really bring it back!"

The family is happy, and the atmosphere of happiness echoes in the room.

"Dad, mother, we can't put this color TV in our house, we have to put it in my grandparents' house. ”

Xu Zhinian's proposal made everyone stunned for a moment - although it is not wrong to be filial to the old man, but after all, this is a color TV, and it is inevitable that there will be some reluctance.

"Baoya, tell me, why?"

"Why, in order to prevent those pink eye! Put it in our house, be jealous, disliked, put it in the grandparents' house, this TV is not only a TV, but also a filial piety, in the future, our family will go out of the door, and the waist pole can stand up straight! Besides, the grandparents' house is behind our house, if you want to watch it, you can go to see it every day. ”

"That's right. Song Shuzhi accepted it immediately, and said with a smile: "It's still Baoya who thinks about it thoroughly, if it is placed in our house, your two aunts will be eager to smash us!"

"Yes, let's not do anything that affects unity, anyway, we are not at home normally, and if we want to see it at night, we will go to your grandma's house to see it. Xu Jingdong slapped the board.

So, the family reinstalled the TV and carried it to grandma's house.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, they heard a commotion.

"Xu Zhiwen, I said that I want to leave, you give me a go!" It was Zhang Jingjing who spoke, and through the light, she could be seen with a look of disgust.

"Jingjing, if you go now, I'll be a dead man, look, I'll take you home for the New Year, how can you leave at night? Besides, you go back to the city so late, and you don't have a car ......."

"Hmph, is it difficult to find a car with my appearance? Let me tell you, Xu Zhiwen, I was deceived by you, I don't want to stay in this place for a minute!"

"Jingjing, my family likes you very much, didn't we say okay, get married at the beginning of spring?"

"Bah, who wants to marry you? If it weren't for the fact that you squatted in the detention center for Brother King Kong's top bag, and could be reused in the future, you thought I would look at you more?

Zhang Jingjing said, throwing off Xu Zhiwen again, Xu Zhiwen was in a hurry, and knelt on the ground with a puff and hugged Zhang Jingjing's thigh.
