Soon it was Chinese New Year's Eve.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, the snow on the ground was quite thick, and the villagers only swept the snow on the road and in front of their homes, and the rest of the place was still white.

In the afternoon, firecrackers began to be set off to paste Spring Festival couplets.

Yang Erchou stepped on the stool to paste the Spring Festival couplets, and the old lady held the teacup and looked at him from a distance: "No, a little higher, higher in the west, yes, that's it." ”

An Ning and Li Cuihua make dumplings in the kitchen.

I don't like to get up on the morning of the first day of the new year, so I wrap the dumplings out in advance, and put the wrapped dumplings in the cold room to freeze them.

Li Cuihua chatted with An Ning while making dumplings: "Your sister called back two days ago and told me that the house would be decorated in the spring, and I discussed with your father that our house would be installed at that time, and when the time comes, we will live in the village if we want to live in the village, and if we want to live in the county seat, we will live in the county seat." ”

"Is there enough money at home, or I'll get some more money. ”

An Ning asked.

Li Cuihua said with a smile: "Enough, before the Chinese New Year, your father hoarded a lot of wood, and the factory can start work in the spring, and the deposit will be enough to install the house at that time. ”

"Hmm. An Ning nodded: "If my father doesn't have time to pretend, let my Uncle Fang help install a piece for our family." ”

Li Cuihua rolled out the skin: "Your sister and I said the same thing, your sister said okay." ”

As he was talking, Yang Erchou began to set off firecrackers outside.

An Ning finished wrapping the last few dumplings, cleaned up the board with Li Cuihua, and began to help Li Cuihua choose vegetables or something.

Li Cuihua was still chattering: "We have to hurry up, and when we get it ready, we will go to your uncle's house." ”

It was all said before that this year's New Year Yang Erguo's family went to Yang Daguo's house for Chinese New Year's Eve, so Li Cuihua did not prepare any dishes, so she chose some dishes and waited for tomorrow to eat at noon.

An Ning sped up, and was choosing a dish here, when he heard Yang Fuyu's voice outside: "Second uncle, happy New Year." ”

An Ning was stunned for a moment: "What are you doing here?"

Li Cuihua glanced out twice, and her face immediately turned bad.

"Your uncle's family is here. ”

An Ning smiled: "This is not asking for money at our house, so I came to eat and drink to vent my anger." ”

"Who knows. ”

Li Cuihua was also quite speechless: "We are not prepared, what can we do?"

An Ning said: "It's okay, what do we do, didn't we fry the meatballs before, I'll make you a sweet and sour meatball, and then fry a hot and sour cabbage, and then put together a fruit plate, get two cold vegetables, cut a plate of pig's head meat, cut a plate of pork offal, fry the enema and fry it again, and then get a fish, and get the boiled chicken out is enough to eat." ”

"Isn't there nothing to do? ”

Li Cuihua hurriedly went to get the pig's head meat or something, An Ning quickly took a cabbage and cut it, and took the green onion, ginger and garlic minced for later use, and when Li Cuihua brought the pork offal and pig's head meat, An Ning washed and cut the vegetables.

Wang Shushu was wearing a blue cotton jacket, holding a handful of melon seeds in his hand, and came in while snorting: "Yo, this is now ready, Ning Ning is cooking, ouch, it's a big girl, I can help in the kitchen." ”

An Ning smiled and called out to the eldest mother, Wang Shushu leaned over and said: "I originally said that we will entertain guests this year, no, I have been very uncomfortable these days, and my daughter-in-law is pregnant again, I don't dare to work her, there is no way, I can only come over and be lively together, you can remember to entertain his aunt on the second day of the new year." ”

Li Cuihua was tired in her heart, but she said: "That's okay, I'll call my mother in a while and tell her that we will go over in the third year of junior high school." ”

Wang Shushu saw An Ning cutting the pig's head there, and reached out to take a piece to eat.

An Ning was very depressed: "Auntie, if you want to eat and take chopsticks, don't reach out and take it, isn't it dirty to get a hand oil." ”

After eating the pig's head meat, Wang Shushu wiped his oily hands on his clothes: "It's not clean, it's not sick." ”

An Ningxin said that Wang Shushu was about to have a fight with the Xiao family.

In the hall, Yang Erchou poured tea, brought peanuts, melon seeds and sugar, Fuyu took his daughter-in-law Liu Min to sit down, and Fugui sat on the sofa on the other side.

Fu Yu grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and Liu Min peeled peanuts there.

Fugui chattered a cigarette, he was still restless when he was sitting, and his legs were shaking and shaking: "If you want me to say, the second uncle's factory should be expanded, it's not okay to always make such a small fuss, what is that, yes, the family workshop, you might as well move to the town, or move to the county seat, then there are many more customers than now, by the way, the second uncle also makes wooden doors and windows, this is about to be eliminated, second uncle, you have to be ready, I heard that aluminum alloy doors and windows are popular now, you are so ......"

Yang Laomao sat not far from Fugui: "Second brother, you listen to what Fugui said, I think it's reasonable, you might as well stop doing carpentry, put on some aluminum alloy doors and windows, and let Fugui run business for you when the time comes, Fugui is clever, and he will definitely be able to give you a lot of work." ”

Yang Erchou didn't listen to this.

He was stupid to let Yang Fugui meddle in the affairs of his factory.

"Dad, how old am I, I'm in my forties, I can do it for a few more years, I don't have the heart to make this new thing, now I can do some carpentry work, when will it be eliminated, I will stop doing it, anyway, An Zhen is also married, now life is not the top of the well, but it can be regarded as good, Anning also has a future, I don't need me to earn money for her, I and Cuihua also bought a house, this day is really content, I will stop in a few years, and Cuihua and I moved to the county to retire. ”

What he said made the rhetoric that Yang Fugui and Yang Laomao had thought of before useless.

"Second uncle, why are you so unmotivated?"

Yang Fugui squinted at Yang Erchou and felt that this person was not good.

Yang Erchou smiled: "How old am I, if you don't get motivated, you won't be motivated, you are still young, you have to be motivated, by the way, you said that the aluminum alloy doors and windows, you can do it yourself, when the time comes, the second uncle will have a light on the surface." ”

"I don't like this. ”

Yang Fugui waved his hand, looking arrogant, "This work is too tiring, and I can't make a lot of money, I'm the one who wants to be a big boss, but I can't do this." ”

An Ning came in with a fruit plate and cold salad: "What does the second brother want to do?"

Yang Fugui rubbed his hands: "Sister, what do you think I can do in the capital?"

An Ning smiled and put down the dishes: "I don't know this, I go to school all day long, I haven't been out of school much, I don't know how big the capital is, how can I know this." ”

"That's what I thought. ”

Yang Fugui shamelessly leaned over and talked to An Ning: "I think it is quite profitable to build a house now, I just think about when to buy a piece of land to build a building in the county seat or not in the provincial capital, one building many floors, and the purchase is not cheap, that can really make money, people build more houses, and a community can earn more than one million." ”

An Ning smiled: "This is really good, but do you have anything to do with the county and the provincial town? How to buy the land? Do you know how to estimate the valuation? Do you know how to build a house? How high is a floor, how many bricks are used, how much cement is used, and do you understand the structure of the house? There are many ways here, if you don't understand this, you won't be able to cry if you keep it." ”

Yang Lao Mao doesn't like to listen to An Ning say this: "How do you talk to your brother, what do you know about a little girl's family, I think well when I listen to Fugui......"

An Ning is really a joy to breathe.

Yang Fugui is a blower, blowing big words all day long, and he doesn't do anything at all, but this old man still thinks he is good, how can he be good?

"I don't understand, but I can calculate how many square houses to build and how many bricks to use, I will know what kind of house structure is the most reasonable, how to design, how to decorate, I also know that people who don't know how to do architecture are not only not responsible for themselves, but also not responsible for others. ”

After An Ning finished speaking, he shook his hand and walked out.

The old lady sat beside her without speaking, and then laughed along.

The old lady's mind is getting clearer and clearer now.

She found out that she had lived in vain for so many years before, and she didn't even find that the boss's family was so unreliable.

Just like An Ning said, if you do a line, you have to understand a line, just like Yang Fugui, who doesn't know how many people build houses, isn't that a joke.
