Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Visitor
After dawn, the old lady put melon seeds, peanuts, candy and red dates on the table in the house, and so on there should be juniors to come to the door to pay New Year's greetings, these things are prepared for them, and also prepare several copies of New Year's money, if there are children who come to visit the New Year, a New Year's money still has to be given, and the old lady is like this every year.
Xiaozhuzi's family was the first to come to pay New Year's greetings, and the old lady was very happy to give three New Year's money, not to mention a dime per person, and each person was given a bag of candy. For the Chinese New Year, the elders will receive whatever they give, and they can't do without and can't say anything.
Xiaozhu's mother also gave Lin Qing a New Year's money as usual, and after sitting for a while, she got up and went back, and there were several families going to visit the New Year, and they all had to go before noon.
On the first day of the new year, the more people who came to the door, the better, the old lady was very happy, and she was generous, and she didn't let the children go to the door every year.
The Lin family has no relatives, and every year during the New Year, except for these adults and children who come to visit the New Year, they are idle at other times, and the good things prepared at home are also enough to eat. In this era, it is sometimes a good thing to have few relatives, at least there will not be people at the door to eat and drink at two ends of three days, and the whole family will go out, and after a meal, the day's rations are basically gone.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, it was rare to have a sunny sun, and at noon, Zhang Qiming from the county came over with his daughter-in-law and son.
This time I came more low-key, I don't know where to get a donkey cart, Zhang Qiming came by himself, wrapped thickly, as soon as he saw the old lady, he threw the whip in his hand, and then jumped out of the car and ran to the old lady and saluted.
The old lady twitched the corner of her mouth, "What kind of salute are you going to pay homage? It's been many years since I've been in the army, okay, let's put my hands down, it's your daughter-in-law and son in the car, right? Come into the house and rest, you won't wait for the hot weather to come over on this cold day." ”
"How can I come to greet the New Year!" Zhang Qiming said as he asked his daughter-in-law and son to come over to say hello to the old lady.
Zhang Qiming's daughter-in-law is called Xu Qiu, her face is elegant and docile, and her voice is even more crisp and beautiful. The old lady knew at a glance that this was an intellectual, and felt that it was not bad, and she also liked it a little in her heart, so she enthusiastically pulled people into the house.
As for Zhang Qiming's son Zhang Wenhe, it was a very shy child, and he only greeted the old lady with a red face after entering the house, he just turned ten years old this year, and his face followed his mother, and he looked like a girl.
The old lady went into the east room and took Lin Qing's toffee to him, and there was a red envelope of one dollar, the little guy blushed and said no, the old lady couldn't help but stuff it into his pocket, "The elders gave it, don't want it." ”
Zhang Wenhe looked at his father nervously, Zhang Qiming nodded, "You will take what Grandma Lin gave." After listening to his father's words, Zhang Wenhe smiled and thanked the old lady with a relieved smile.
The old lady rubbed the top of his head rarely, "This kid is a well-behaved, worry-free, much better than my family!"
Speaking of Lin Qing, Zhang Qiming looked around, "What about the little girl?
"In the backyard, it is said that it is training the family dog so that it can be taken to the mountains to hunt in the future. She just tosses blindly every day, and if she doesn't toss the cats and dogs at home for a day, she feels uncomfortable!"
"Cats and dogs?" Zhang Wenhe's eyes lit up, "Grandma's family has cats and dogs?"
"Grandma has been raising her for more than half a year, and she looks good...... old lady was talking, when suddenly there was a sharp rooster cry from the backyard, and the loud voice was heard clearly in the hall.
The old lady's eyelids jumped suddenly, outside the house, Xiao Lang ran in in a hurry, and when he saw the people sitting in the house, he was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said: "Milk, Ah Qing asked fifteen to pick up our chickens, and the chickens in the backyard are scared to run around!"
As soon as Xiao Lang finished speaking, Lin Qing came over with Fifteen, and Fifteen still had a fat big red rooster in his mouth, "Milk! Our fifteen is very smart! I asked it to catch the chicken, and it immediately caught a big rooster for me!"
Lin Qing's voice was very cheerful, and she ran into the hall only to find that there were guests at home, but she still happily hugged the old lady and raised her head to ask for praise.
Fifteen tall and majestic body is stronger than a calf, it looks really scary, the rooster in its mouth is not dead, it is struggling back and forth, it doesn't care, it wagging its tail excitedly and does not let go at all.
The old lady was so distressed that she pointed to fifteen and scolded: "Oh! You ruined dog stuff quickly loosen your mouth! There are only a few chickens at home, and I have enough money to make medicinal food, so I can't let you bite you to death!"
Fifteen was obviously afraid that the old lady would get angry, so she immediately let go of her mouth, and watched the rooster that had escaped running away, and sharpened her claws very itchyly.
Lin Qing blinked, knowing that she was in trouble, and when she saw Zhang Qiming who was looking at her with a smile on the side, she hurriedly ran over, "Uncle Zhang, when did you come? I miss you after seeing you for a long time......"
Lin Qing's mouth, it's sweet and has nothing to say.
The old lady glared at her angrily, she didn't want to say anything to blame, let her and Xiao Lang call people one by one, and by the way, they also got a red envelope.
The first time Xu Qiu saw such a rare child, he hugged Lin Qing and didn't let go. Lin Qing also likes her very much, she is a very gentle woman, and the smell on her body is also faintly fragrant, and the two of them are tired of being together like a mother and daughter.
The old lady twitched the corner of her mouth, turned her head and couldn't see it, and beckoned Xiao Lang to call her uncle over, and she went to the kitchen to make lunch.
Xu Qiu is a very discerning person, and when he saw the old lady go to the kitchen, he asked his son to come over to play with Lin Qing, and then went out of the house to help.
Zhang Wenhe is also the first time to see such a beautiful child, small, soft, looks white and tender, and people can't stop wanting to kiss a few bites. took out his pocket, there was only the toffee given by the old lady in it, he peeled one and handed it to Lin Qing, his face was red, but his eyes were amazingly bright, a little expectant and a little timid.
Lin Qing has never seen such a delicate male baby, even her temperament is like a female baby, she is a little skeptical, if she doesn't eat the toffee he handed over, will he cry?
Looking at him curiously for a while, seeing that his face was getting redder and redder, Lin Qing took the candy cube and stuffed it into his mouth with a wicked smile, and asked deliberately: "Why do you keep blushing......?"
