Chapter 351: The Son Wins the Father
The old Chen family has four sons and one daughter, except for the daughter who married in Linzhen, several sons are around to marry wives and have children, more than ten grandchildren and grandchildren, and it is a famous person in ten miles and eight villages.
The surname Chen is the surname of Qianwang Village, and there are not a few people who are related to the hometown and have a hometown, coupled with the Chen family's kind temperament, the grandmother's 70th birthday is naturally very lively.
Chen Qiaoshan was busy with his work, and he never saw the shadow of his sisters, he was a little strange, this is not their character, go outside to take a look, okay, several people are busy dividing the spoils.
The suitcase that had been dragged all the way had been opened, and all kinds of snacks and pastries were stuffed to the brim.
"This is a coconut ball, no filling, there is a coconut flavor, and this jujube cake, the skin is a little hard, but it is very fragrant, this is hemp crispy, and this, they are all very delicious, you can taste it......" Yan Xiaoqin obviously knew how to envelop Xiao Wu, and picked up the delicious food and stuffed it into the little girl's hand while introducing.
Poor Xiao Wu has never seen such tricks, holding a bunch of delicate pastries, and he didn't dare to send them to his mouth.
The Chen family didn't have a good time before, and Chen Weiguo occasionally helped the little girl from the town to bring some snacks such as Jiang rice noodles and rice flower sticks, which could make Xiao Wu happy for a long time, as for the dim sum in Daoxiang Village, I had never heard of it.
Xiao Wu looked at the pig-like pastries in her hand, which was so cute, she was really reluctant to eat it.
"What are you thinking about?" Chen Qiaoshan looked funny, directly grabbed the golden pig cake, grabbed it and took a bite, this thing is salty and fragrant, but it suits his taste.
"Second brother!" Xiao Wu almost didn't cry, and he was about to snatch it back, but unfortunately it was too late, how could Chen Qiaoshan get used to her problem, "A little conscience, okay, I bought these things." ”
"No, I know that this is bought by Sister Xiaoqin. Xiao Wu's mouth was full of words, but he didn't dare to do it in the end, and the original "Yan Goblin" also changed his mouth logically.
"Look at what I'm doing, don't you still have it in your hand?" Seeing that she was still staring at herself reluctantly, Chen Qiaoshan couldn't help crying and laughing, so he had to break off a piece and stuff it into Xiao Wu's mouth, and finally blocked her mouth.
The countryside is not so particular, and the flowing water banquet at the birthday banquet is still the chef of last year's college banquet.
After eating a piece of cake, Chen Qiaoshan felt very hungry, and he hadn't eaten seriously for two meals, so he urged: "Hurry up and clean up and pay your grandmother's birthday." ”
In fact, there is nothing to clean up, Chen Xi is a conscientious person, found a fruit plate, put a plate of various kinds of dim sum, and prepared to bring it over to the old grandmother to taste.
"Third sister, I'll come, I'll get it. Xiao Wu hurriedly picked up the fruit plate, Chen Qiaoshan was not at ease, and told Chen Xi to look at it with Chen Wan, and then took Yan Xiaoqin over.
Out of the courtyard of the Chen family, Yan Xiaoqin was a little uneasy, Chen Qiaoshan comforted: "Don't worry, grandparents are very good, you are so beautiful, they must like it." ”
When Chen Xi heard the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but smile and glanced at the second brother, and then took the initiative to hold Yan Xiaoqin and said, "My brother is right, don't worry, I'll accompany you today." ”
Chen Qiaoshan sighed secretly, the three younger sisters finally have a caring.
……
The uncle's yard has been set up in the color shed, the brothers and sisters just entered the gate, and they were immediately surrounded by a group of seven aunts and eight aunts.
"Dashan, I'm back from Yanjing, and the longer I get, the more promising I get!"
"The three girls and the four girls are also filial, and they all came back to make a birthday for the old lady!"
"Yo, isn't this Xiao Wu, why are you still holding a plate of pastries, you haven't married yet, you know how to send birthday cakes to your grandmother......"
……
A group of enthusiastic women, Chen Qiaoshan was really tired of coping, and it took a long time to enter the hall.
The main house has been cleaned up, and the birthday charts, red birthday banners and longevity couplets on the wall are very festive, and they are obviously newly arranged.
There is a square table in the middle, an incense burner, longevity fruit, longevity wine, longevity eggs and longevity candy are set up on a table, as well as a longevity cake prepared by the married girl, which is not a custom-made cake, it is a peach-shaped steamed bun made of brown sugar and red dates, which is very pleasing.
Finally seeing the old woman, Chen Qiaoshan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Milk, my grandson is here to pay your old birthday greetings." ”
The old grandmother is old, but her body is still strong, she pulled Chen Qiaoshan and said: "Monkey cub, your father has been back for a long time, and I haven't seen you for a while, I have been looking forward to it for a while." ”
Chen Xi and Chen Wan also stepped forward and said, "Grandma, and the two of us, we are also back." ”
The old lady smiled happily, and pulled the two granddaughters to get up, Xiao Wu was not happy when she saw it, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Grandma, and me, you see, I also brought a lot of delicious snacks." As he spoke, he brought the fruit bowl he was holding in his hand to the old woman as if he were offering a treasure.
The old lady glanced at it and said with a smile: "Xiao Wu has also grown up, she is a big girl, I remember that you were not like this when you were a child, for half a piece of bud candy, your second brother's face was almost scratched." ”
Speaking of the funny things in the past, everyone in the room immediately burst into laughter.
Xiao Wu also wants to be embarrassed, and she is a little shy to come to the old grandmother and sprinkle coquettishly, she grabbed a piece of pastry and said: "Grandma, this is melon crisp, you can taste it, it was brought back from Yanjing by the second brother, and it was said to be from Daohua Village, but it was delicious." ”
"It's Daoxiang Village. Chen Qiaoshan added with a smile.
The old grandmother was stunned for a moment, she had seen the eight pieces of Beijing in Daoxiang Village, it was more than 20 years ago, Zhang Ziyu was confined, and her former mother-in-law brought it from Yanjing.
After so many years, seeing things and thinking about people, thinking of the eldest granddaughter who had no news outside, the old grandmother of the Chen family felt uncomfortable for a while.
Xiao Wu didn't notice it, but Chen Qiaoshan noticed something unusual, and he couldn't understand what made the old lady unhappy.
"Grandma, this is the second brother's girlfriend. Coldly, Xiao Wu pulled Yan Xiaoqin over.
The old grandmother was stunned again, and couldn't help squinting her eyes and carefully looking at the girl in front of her, very young, looking thoughtful, no worse than the three granddaughters, but looking at this dress, a few granddaughters must not be compared, obviously the daughters of good families in the city.
Thinking of the old woman's former daughter-in-law, the old lady couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, "Girl, where is your hometown?"
The old grandmother asked tentatively with a strong local accent, when Zhang Ziyu first got married, she couldn't even understand a sentence of the local dialect, she didn't want this most promising grandson to revisit his Laozi's history.
Yan Xiaoqin was a little shy, but when she heard her grandmother's question, she still said generously: "Grandma, I am from Dengzhou, and I am a classmate of Dashan, today is your birthday, I wish you a happy birthday." ”
Hearing the familiar southern Henan accent, the grandmother's worries immediately went to most of it, the youngest son can toss, and the adopted son can toss even more, but at least he knows how to find a local daughter-in-law, which is much better than his old son.
