Chapter 40: The Huang family has a happy event
Ma Xiaoying walked in the door after Huang Dong, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous, except for knowing Huang Dong and Sun Bing, a room of strangers, I really didn't know how to deal with it. I don't know if the Huang family's parents are kind or not, I don't know if the Sun family's parents are kind or not, I don't know if the people are happy and happy, and if they participate in it, will it affect everyone's emotions, I don't know, I don't know...... There's so much to not know.
But when Zheng Cuihua walked over slowly, all the worries and all the unknowns were like smoke. Although Ma Xiaoying once had a period of wind and moon experience, her eyes have always remained clear, even if it is a down jacket, it also makes Ma Xiaoying wear the feeling of winning snow in white, and it is pitiful. Zheng Cuihua listened to Sun Bing's detailed talk about Ma Xiaoying's experience, and she didn't know how many times she hurt this girl, and she didn't wait for Huang Dong to introduce her, so she slowly stretched out her hand and took Xiaoying's hand, just like her own daughter had just entered the door, and her mother went to warm her hands in distress.
Ma Xiaoying didn't know if this was the mother of the Huang family or the mother of the Sun family, but she felt that the warmth that her mother had given her came from her hand. No matter how hard it is to persist in the usual strength, as soon as the nose is counted, tears begin to roll in the eyes.
"This is my mother, my mother, this is my colleague, Ma Xiaoying. Huang Dong hurriedly introduced her.
Zheng Cuihua felt that Ma Xiaoying's hands were a little cold, and pulled her to the living room, "Girl, it's cold outside, come in and warm up." Straight to Ma Xiaoying to sit down in front of the sofa, Zheng Cuihua's hand has never let go, this is more like Ma Xiaoying's mother, when her mother is there, she always likes to hold her hand, Ma Xiaoying didn't dare to say a word, for fear that she would be unable to control her tears as soon as she spoke.
"What a handsome girl, I heard Bingbing say, anyway, you are also celebrating the New Year alone, let's be here, the more people, the more lively. Zheng Cuihua pushed the fruit plate in front of Ma Xiaoying, then got up and said, "You sit down first, and Auntie will cook for you." β
At this time, Huang Dong came out after changing his clothes, in the north in winter, this is it, the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is about 40 Β°, you must change your clothes quickly when you enter the door, otherwise you will sweat for a while. Huang Dong asked Ma Xiaoying to take off her coat and introduced her relatives one by one, and then sat next to Huang Lin and watched TV with Ma Xiaoying.
"Hey, Huang Dong, Huang Lin, what's the matter with you two guys, don't you see that we are all busy, come and help. Sun Bing shouted in the kitchen.
Huang Lin listened to Sun Bing's shout, slowly walked towards the restaurant, the four old men and Sun Bing were in the restaurant and kitchen for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the whole family was talking and laughing, the atmosphere was so warm that the ice flowers on the window began to melt.
"Huang Dong, hurry up, don't talk if you don't work, I won't give you food for a while. At this time, Sun Bing was the chief commander of the kitchen, and she came out to drag Huang Dong.
"There are so many people, it's not my turn to help, you let Xiaoying help. Huang Dong replied lazily.
"Lazy ghost, usually Xiaoying helps you less, cook a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner and let Xiaoying help you, don't hesitate to come." Sun Bing did not forgive.
Ma Xiaoying was no longer as cramped as she had just entered the door, so she hurriedly got up to relieve Huang Dong, "Sister-in-law, I'll help, let Brother Huang rest." After speaking, he pulled Sun Bing to the kitchen.
Sun Bing glanced at Huang Dong, snorted lightly, "Lazy guy", and returned to the kitchen with Ma Xiaoying, Sheng Guilan saw Ma Xiaoying coming, and immediately said, "Child, it's okay, you don't have to do it, you go watch TV, we are too busy to come." As he spoke, he stuffed the two freshly washed apples into the hands of Ma Xiaoying and Sun Bing.
When Huang Dong went to pick up Ma Xiaoying, Sun Bing had already told Ma Xiaoying's situation to his parents and the old people of the Huang family, these old people felt that Ma Xiaoying's child was strange and pitiful, and his parents died at a young age.
"Uncle and aunt, since I'm here, I won't treat myself as an outsider, leave the kitchen to me today, and you go to rest. The happiness of gathering together in Huang Dong's family deeply infected Ma Xiaoying, and she especially wanted to integrate into it.
"Do you know how to cook?" Sun Bing asked with a glance at Ma Xiaoying.
"Of course, the craftsmanship is said to be good. Ma Xiaoying replied playfully.
"How about we contract the kitchen?" asked Sun Bing.
"You command, I work, you can't be wrong. Ma Xiaoying said and pulled up the sleeves of her sweater.
"Okay, but you can't do it, you come with me and change your clothes. Sun Bing usually cooks, she and Huang Dong eat okay, to say to cook Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, she really dare not reach out, as soon as Ma Xiaoying has a full chest, she found her own home clothes to change into, put on an apron for her, and then walked back to the kitchen.
"Dad, Mom, uncle, aunt, you all go to watch TV, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Xiaoying and I contracted. Sun Bing believed that Ma Xiaoying would not be able to speak big, so he pushed the four old men out of the kitchen.
"You kid, how can you make the guests work, how can you make this sense. Sheng Guilan said angrily.
"Mom, she's not a guest, she's the same as Huang Dong's sister, so don't be polite, hurry up and get out of the way." Sun Bing's casual words made Ma Xiaoying very moved, and she also said, "Uncles and aunts, you go to the rest meeting, and the rest depends on me and Sister Bing." In front of Sun Bing's parents, Ma Xiaoying is still called Sister Bing, after all, the two are not married yet.
The four old men walked out of the kitchen unwillingly, and they were really a little worried, there are really not many girls who can cook now, so many dishes, I really can't believe that Ma Xiaoying can handle it, they still know Sun Bing's ability in the kitchen.
"Listen to her, come and rest. Huang Dong also shouted in the living room.
Huang Dong and Sun Bing did not refuse Ma Xiaoying's request, because they wanted her to be busy too, so that she would not regard herself as an outsider and save herself from being cramped.
Ma Xiaoying's performance in the kitchen simply made Sun Bing dumbfounded, frying and frying, quite a chef's style, with asking everyone's dietary preferences from time to time, one after another dishes with color and fragrance came out of her hands, and after an hour, a table full of color and fragrance was full of color and fragrance.
Ma Xiaoying's cooking skills also aroused the interest of the four old people, and they all ran back to the kitchen to watch Ma Xiaoying stir-fry, and kept praising them, "This girl's craftsmanship is really good, I don't know which guy is blessed." β
When the last course, the golden and jade seafood soup, was served, everyone was already sitting around the table.
"Come and sit down here, Auntie, you're tired, this girl's hands are so skillful. Zheng Cuihua pulled Ma Xiaoying to sit beside her, her eyes full of love.
"Sister, it's amazing. Huang Dong flattered Sun Bing and gave him a thumbs up.
"Haha, I don't dare to be greedy, this is all Xiaoying's craft. Sun Bing replied with a smile, for cooking, she did admire Ma Xiaoying so much.
"Without your command, she wouldn't have been able to cook such a good dish. Huang Dong continued.
"Poor mouth, eat quickly, come to Xiaoying, eat. Sun Bing glanced at Huang Dong, her heart was still sweet, she knew that Huang Dong was worried that Zheng Cuihua would praise Ma Xiaoying, she would be jealous, so she praised her vigorously, this guy can think of his feelings at any time, it is indeed a kind of happiness.
While the whole family was eating, they were chatting about family life, Zheng Cuihua looked at Sun Bing for a while, and Ma Xiaoying for a while, they all liked it indescribably, and they all liked it indescribably, and they glanced at Sheng Guilan and said, "Mother-in-law, I really envy you, how good it is to have a daughter, who knows cold and hot." β
Sheng Guilan put down her chopsticks, "The girl's son is not all the same, besides, isn't my daughter your daughter, they are all a family, what do you envy." β
"Auntie, do you like girls?" asked Sun Bing with a smile.
"Yes, but not that blessing. Zheng Cuihua sighed and said. Zheng Cuihua really likes her daughter, but she is quite satisfied with her two sons.
"What, Mom, are your two sons bad, and I can find you such a good daughter-in-law. As soon as Huang Dong heard his mother say this, he hurriedly protested, and Huang Lin also accosted him on the side, "That's it." β
"What's your business, if you have the ability, you can also find me a good daughter-in-law like your sister-in-law. Zheng Cuihua said to Huang Lin.
"Okay, Mom, I won't say it, the girl is good, the girl is good, it's okay. Huang Lin hurriedly lowered his head to eat.
"Auntie, it's not easy to like a girl, my mother has recognized another daughter, so you don't want to recognize one," After speaking, Sun Bing glanced at Ma Xiaoying with his eyes.
When Huang Dong heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and he also glanced at Ma Xiaoying in a blink of an eye, in the north, it is indeed a custom to recognize relatives, the children of good friends' families are good, and the two families discussed and discussed to recognize their relatives, Huang Dong's family is from eastern Zhejiang, so I didn't expect this section.
The people at the dinner table, only Huang Dong knows her past and her current relationship with Song Jiacheng, although she doesn't say it, but in front of Huang Dong, there is always some inferiority complex in her heart, so she tried all her best to help Huang Dong, just to prove herself, as for what to prove, she can't say clearly.
Huang Dong's eyes stimulated the most vulnerable part of Ma Xiaoying's heart, many girls of her age are still coquettish in front of their relatives, she also wants to have such a day, but since her mother left, she no longer has this hope. When she saw Zheng Cuilan, she felt a love from her eyes. Sun Bing asked Zheng Cuilan to recognize her as her daughter, and she could hear it, she was afraid that Huang Dong, who knew the truth, would still look down on her and refuse this proposal, how embarrassing she should be.
Ma Xiaoying pretended not to hear and lowered her head to eat.
"Okay, I think Bingbing is right, such a good girl, you will be a daughter, you Lao Zheng is also blessed, you don't want it, I want it, anyway, I just don't like many girls." Sheng Guilan on the side also followed.
Zheng Cuihua was moved by what Sun Bing and Sheng Guilan said, turned her head to look at Ma Xiaoying, saw that she was still eating with her head down, and sighed in her heart, it seems that the girl doesn't want to recognize this kiss.
"Xiaoying, Xiaoying, did you hear that. Seeing that Ma Xiaoying didn't speak, Sun Bing urged.
"Hmm!" Ma Xiaoying thought about it, but still said unconfidently, "Sister-in-law, don't be joking, how can I have that blessing." As he spoke, he glanced at Huang Dong with the rest of his eyes.
"What do you think he is doing, why Huang Dong, do you have any opinions?" Sun Bing also noticed Ma Xiaoying's expression, and turned his head to ask Huang Dong.
"I don't have any opinions, don't you want to look at Xiaoying about this? I have always treated her as a sister. Huang Dong hurriedly explained.
"That Xiaoying, what do you say?" Sun Bing asked Ma Xiaoying again.
"This is my blessing, I don't know if my aunt likes to recognize me as a daughter. Ma Xiaoying glanced at Zheng Cuihua timidly.
"Yes, yes, I'm so willing. Zheng Cuihua was overjoyed.
"What are you willing to do, what are you talking about?" Huang Yuanjun was chatting with Sun Jianguo hotly, didn't pay attention to what the others were talking about, put down the wine glass and asked.
"Congratulations, uncle, you have one more girl to honor you. Sun Bing smiled.
"Ah, and this good thing?" Huang Yuanjun asked after glancing at Zheng Cuihua.
"Yes, yes, Lao Huang, we are blessed. Zheng Cuihua smiled and took Ma Xiaoying's hand, and was reluctant to let go for a while, she originally thought that if Huang Lin could find such a daughter-in-law, it would be good, but then she thought about it, her son was not as sensible as the boss, the girl was Huang Dong's partner, the conditions and abilities must be no different, and her son would not necessarily be happy. But I really like this hard-working and simple girl very much, and I am naturally very happy when I say that I want to be my daughter.
"That auntie. Looking at the excited Huang family couple, Ma Xiaoying was a little excited.
"Still called Auntie?" Sun Bing immediately corrected Ma Xiaoying.
"You can call anything, it's my daughter. Zheng Cuihua was so happy that she didn't know what to say.
"Mom, Dad", Ma Xiaoying shyly changed the name of the second elder of the Huang family. After speaking, he got up from his seat, Zheng Cuihua agreed, and looked at Ma Xiaoying who got up suspiciously.
What everyone didn't expect was that Ma Xiaoying actually walked to the side of the second elder of the Huang family and knelt on the ground to kowtow to Zheng Cuihua, which made Zheng Cuihua shocked, and quickly got up to drag Ma Xiaoying, "You kid, what are you doing?"
"In the past, my brother and I kowtowed to my mother for the New Year, but since my mother left, I have become a child who has no want, and today I have a mother again, I will kowtow to your second elder, and I wish you a long life. When Ma Xiaoying looked up again, she was already in tears.
Everyone didn't expect Ma Xiaoying to be so emotional, and they were all moved by her for a while, Zheng Cuihua felt even more pity in her heart when she heard it, and she shed a few tears while hugging Ma Xiaoying, "Good girl, good girl, you will be my daughter in the future." β
Waiting for Ma Xiaoying to sit down again, Sun Jianguo raised his glass and said, "Lao Huang, you are coming to the door with three joys, the child is married, and there is another girl for the New Year, congratulations." β
Although Huang Yuanjun was not as excited as Zheng Cuihua, he was also very happy, "Good, good, good, three joys are coming, Lao Sun is right, come and drink one with our whole family." The whole family toasted, and the atmosphere was more harmonious than before.
When the New Year's bell rang, Huang Dong called Du Feng and Cai Dongming and others respectively to greet the New Year, Sun Bing also received a call from Cong Shanshan, Cong Shanshan and the four old people all said Happy New Year, and said that they would come to greet the New Year in person tomorrow, Sheng Guilan was very happy, "Come on, Shanshan, I have prepared a red envelope for you." After that, Huang Dong also paid New Year's greetings to Cong Deyuan Qian Ning and his wife.
Infected by Ma Xiaoying, the Huang Dong brothers, Sun Bing, and Ma Xiaoying kowtowed to their parents sitting on the sofa, and the two parents were happy to smile, and they all took out red envelopes to give New Year's money, of course, Ma Xiaoying also got two red envelopes.
After standing up, Ma Xiaoying bowed to Huang Dong and Sun Bing again, "Brother, sister-in-law has a good New Year, I wish you all a good old age and an early birth to a noble son." β
In a word, Sun Bing's face turned red, and he hurriedly said to Huang Dong, "This brother is not called in vain, hurry up and give a red envelope." β
"Yes, definitely, Xiaoying, I also wish you a happy new year, more and more beautiful. After saying that, he went back to the house to get the red envelope.
Ma Xiaoying bowed to Huang Lin, "Second brother, I also wish you a happy New Year." β
Huang Lin was a little unnatural, and he had to say, "I don't have any money, I don't have a red envelope, let the rich man give it for me." β
In a word, the whole family burst into laughter, and Ma Xiaoying also felt the long-lost family affection, strong love, and the occasional sound of firecrackers outside, which sounded so pleasant at this time.
Huang Dong took out two big red envelopes, one handed to Sun Bing, and the other handed to Ma Xiaoying, Ma Xiaoying took it and saw that the red envelope contained 10,000 yuan, and said in surprise, "Such a big red envelope, thank you, sister-in-law." β
"Hey, I gave it. Huang Dong protested.
"It was given to my sister-in-law. Ma Xiaoying looked at Huang Dong playfully.
"Well, I can't talk about you. Huang Dong was helpless.
Sun Bingle leaned forward and back, winking at Ma Xiaoying, and Ma Xiaoying also smiled mischievously and responded to her.
"Hey, Huang Lin, Xiaoying is our New Year's greetings, what's the matter with you?" Sun Bing smiled and said to Huang Lin with a straight face.
"Well, brother, happy new year sister-in-law. Huang Lin didn't bow and made a gesture towards Huang Dong and Sun Bing.
"Okay, this is a red envelope, and I also wish Huang Lin a happy New Year and a family as soon as possible. Sun Bing handed Huang Lin a red envelope of 10,000 yuan.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. Huang Lin was very happy when he saw such a big red envelope.
Seeing that the children get along so harmoniously, the old people of the two families are very relieved.
After greeting each other for the New Year, Ma Xiaoying was going back, but Zheng Cuihua said that he would not let him go, "You can't go, you can go back alone, these days, you will accompany your godmother more, and we will go back the next day." β
For Zheng Cuihua's sincere retention, Ma Xiaoying was not only moved, but also moved and happily stayed. She really regards Zheng Cuihua as a close relative.
On the morning of the first day of the new year, the whole family was woken up by the sporadic sound of firecrackers, and when the women's group in the new house got up, they found that Ma Xiaoying had made a hearty breakfast, steamed some steamed buns, boiled white rice porridge, and made a few small cold dishes.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Cong Shanshan came to pay New Year's greetings, when she saw Ma Xiaoying who opened the door, Cong Shanshan was stunned, and for a moment suspected that she had gone to the wrong door, but fortunately Sun Bing came over at this time, "Shanshan, come in, your parents are waiting for you." As he spoke, he pulled Shanshan into the house, and suddenly stopped again, "By the way, Shanshan forgot to introduce you, this is Xiaoying, Huang Dong's sister, Xiaoying This is Shanshan, my sister." β
"Sister?" said the two men in surprise almost at the same time.
"Oh, I'll talk about it later, come in quickly. Sun Bing pulled them into the door one by one, and Cong Shanshan ran to Sun Jianguo and Sheng Guilan first, and bowed, "Happy New Year, godfather and godmother." Subsequently, he also paid New Year's greetings to Zheng Cuihua, the Yellow Aid Army.
"Good, good. Come to Shanshan, this is the New Year's money for you. Sheng Guilan took out a red envelope and stuffed it into Shanshan's hand, and Zheng Cuihua also handed over a red envelope.
"Thank you, godmother, thank you, auntie!" Cong Shanshan took off her coat and walked towards Sun Bing's room, and Sun Bing followed.
"Sister Bingbing, when will Huang Dong have a younger sister, why don't I know?" Cong Shanshan asked in a low voice while hanging up her clothes.
"It's a long story. Sun Bing briefly introduced Ma Xiaoying's situation, when she heard that Ma Xiaoying's parents had died, Cong Shanshan's heart melted, she once felt that she was unlucky, and she pitied all those who were more unfortunate than her. Once when Cong Deyuan first got married, Cong Shanshan also had a feeling of losing her parents, but, after all, her parents are still there, and they still have time to meet, and her father has always loved her, but that girl, so young, has no parents, it's so pitiful.
"Xiaoying, come in for a while. Sun Bing shouted, and Ma Xiaoying immediately entered the room when she heard it.
"Xiaoying, Shanshan is my mother's goddaughter, my business partner, and now she is still my neighbor with Huang Dong. Sun Bing said, "She is a little older than you, so you can call her Sister Shanshan." β
"Sister Shanshan, you are so beautiful. Ma Xiaoying looked at Cong Shanshan and greeted politely.
"Xiaoying, you are so beautiful. Cong Shanshan looked at Ma Xiaoying's hand, "I didn't know you were here, and I didn't prepare a New Year's gift, let's go out for a walk today and make it up for you." β
"Sister Shanshan, no. Ma Xiaoying felt that everyone who came to this house was so kind, she really seemed to have plunged into a "happy hometown".
The three girls became sisters in a while, chatting non-stop in the room.
The old couple of the Huang family and the Sun family are really blessed, they were dragged out by their children to go shopping, there were not many people in the shopping mall on the first day of junior high school, and a large family entered the shopping mall, which was particularly conspicuous, Sun Bing and Cong Shanshan and Ma Xiaoying, you will buy a set of clothes for the old man for a while, and she will take a fancy to a set for a while, in less than an hour, Huang Dong and Huang Lin will carry a lot of things in their hands. Where have the four of them ever seen spending money like this, buying things is like not asking for money, and they keep stopping, "Enough, enough, don't want, don't want it." "But it didn't work at all, until more than three o'clock in the afternoon, I was a little tired, so I went home from the meeting, four old people, each with four or five more sets of clothes, although I was very sorry for the money, but I was still very happy in my heart.
Cong Shanshan also specially gave Ma Xiaoying a set of LancΓ΄me cosmetics, as a New Year's gift, Ma Xiaoying also bought Cong Shanshan a set of Prada scarves, just one day, the two of them held hands, so good that Sun Bing was a little jealous, of course, her sister's gift is naturally indispensable.
Back at Yudehua's house, Cong Shanshan called Cong Deyuan and told him not to go back at night and stay with Sun Bing.
