On the thirtieth day of the lunar month, at three o'clock in the afternoon, the reunion dinner.

Liao Zetian's daughter-in-law and Liao Zebing's daughter-in-law were busy in the kitchen, Xu Wenqing was also going to the kitchen, but Sun Kaixiu pulled him back, and a plate of dishes was served on the table, and more than a dozen people gathered around the table, watching the hot meal.

Wine and drinks have long been prepared.

Liao Fanmin is responsible for setting off firecrackers, which is also the custom of the regimental year, on the day of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the sound of firecrackers has been continuous, and whichever family starts the regimental year, they will set off firecrackers.

lit the firecrackers, Liao Fanmin didn't go back to the house right away, watching the firecrackers explode.

In the past few days of going home for the New Year, Liao Fanmin has a lot of feelings, the second uncle's house was originally a mess, that is, in a day or two, a lot has changed, the food cooked by the second aunt is actually very delicious, and the taste is also very good, I am afraid that I will not do it before, as a woman, after marrying into the Liao family, I have not been recognized, so I am naturally disheartened, not to mention the second uncle, I may have a plan to give up on myself.

Liao Fanmin personally felt that only by fighting for oneself can he have the right to speak at home, and there must be such a pillar in the family to be harmonious, if his father Liao Zexi cannot be promoted, if he is not able to be admitted to the University of South China, maybe the atmosphere of this year's New Year will be completely different.

In a word, the family and everything is prosperous, and the changes that have taken place in the family during this year's Spring Festival may also indicate that this family will become more and more prosperous in the future.

The cousin and cousin ran out, and the little ones loved firecrackers to see if there were any firecrackers that fell.

Liao Fanmin hurriedly grabbed his cousin and cousin, turned around and entered the house, took out a firecracker from the inner room, and gave it to the two of them, and the two children held the firecrackers and were happy.

The whole family was on the table.

The first to pick up chopsticks was, of course, Liao Tiangui.

Liao Tiangui had a bowl in front of him, he picked up a few dishes from the table, poured some wine into the wine glass in front of him, then stood up, picked up the wine glass, and poured the wine in the wine glass on the ground.

Everyone watched in silence.

This is a wine and food for the ancestors of the Liao family.

After sitting down again, Liao Tiangui spoke.

"Eat all the vegetables, the reunion dinner should be eaten to your heart's content, and you must eat well... ”

Everyone first raised their glasses and toasted Liao Tiangui and Sun Kaixiu.

Next, it was Liao Fanmin, who was the eldest grandson, to toast.

Liao Fanmin picked up the wine glass and walked in front of Liao Tiangui.

"Grandpa, grandson toasts you, wishing you happiness such as longevity in the East China Sea. ”

"Okay... ”

Liao Tiangui picked up the wine glass, took out a red envelope and handed it to Liao Fanmin.

Next was Liao Fanyao, who picked up a drink.

In the back are Liao Zetian's two children.

The order of toasting came in turn, and Liao Fanmin then toasted his grandmother, second uncle, second aunt, uncle, and aunt, and also got red envelopes.

After Liao Fanmin toasted, Liao Fanyao and the two little guys followed.

You get a lot of red envelopes, but you can't have a lot of money.

The conditions in the countryside are not very good, and it is impossible to give a lot of New Year's money.

After the junior toasted, Liao Tiangui picked up the wine glass.

"Boss, eldest daughter-in-law, I toast you. ”

Liao Zexi hurriedly picked up the wine glass, and Xu Wenqing also picked up the drink in front of him.

"Boss, eldest daughter-in-law, all the contributions you have made to the family over the years, I remember all of them, you may think that I am partial, do not feel sorry for you, I have no way, your conditions are the best, the second and the eldest do not fight, can only rely on you, otherwise the family will completely collapse, the boss is now a leader, but it is the pride of our family, but I want to remind you, when the leader must not reach out, should not take what should not be taken, be an upright person... ”

After drinking a glass of wine, a bright smile already appeared on Liao Tiangui's face.

"Liao Fanmin, pour the wine, I toast you. ”

Liao Fanmin hurriedly poured the wine, picked up the cup and stood up.

"Liao Fanmin, you are the eldest grandson of the family, you were admitted to a key university, you are the pride of the family, you have won glory for the family, you are better than your father, study hard in school, and stay in the big city in the future, so that our Liao family will also have people in the big city, I rarely go out in my life, you will work in the big city in the future, and your grandmother and I must go to see it... ”

Liao Fanmin drank the wine in the cup in one go, and he felt sour in his heart, this is probably because blood is thicker than water.

The atmosphere of the reunion dinner was very good, Liao Zetian drank the most and was the most refreshing, no matter who toasted, he almost drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.

Liao Zebing's interest was also aroused, and he toasted one by one with wine bottles.

Liao Zexi is more stable in the end.

It wasn't until five o'clock in the afternoon that the reunion dinner ended.

Liao Zetian drank a little too much, and was helped to the back room to rest.

After eating, the woman began to clean up, and Liao Tiangui took Liao Zexi and others to the next room to roast the fire.

In the countryside, firewood is burned, there is no electric stove, and there is no natural gas.

Seeing Liao Zebing walk into the house, Liao Tiangui spoke.

"Boss, go see how the second child is. ”

Liao Zebing nodded and left with interest, and there were Liao Zexi and Liao Fanmin in the house.

"Boss, we plan to go to the second daughter-in-law's mother's house on the fourth day of junior high school, what do you say we should bring. ”

Liao Zexi sighed, in fact, according to the rules, before Liao Zetian got married, Liao Tiangui had to go to the woman's parents' house, but Liao Zetian made his own decisions and angered his parents, so everything was simple.

It is definitely not possible to go to the second daughter-in-law's mother's house empty-handed, but the conditions at home are average, and you may not be able to come up with much money.

Liao Fanmin stood up and walked towards the outside of the house.

Liao Tiangui looked at Liao Fanmin and did not speak.

"Mom, there's something ... ”

Liao Fanmin pulled Xu Wenqing outside the house and told him what had just happened.

Xu Wenqing's face was a little unsightly.

Liao Fanmin opened the satchel, took out a stack of money from it, and handed it to Xu Wenqing.

"Mom, this is 3,000 yuan, you go to grandpa, such a big thing, if you don't have money, it will definitely not work, I think my dad is very embarrassed, that is, money, there is no need to care so much." ”

"Xiaomin, how can you get money for this matter, it's your father and I who want to get money. ”

"It's nothing, I still have some money here, and I can get my salary after the start of school, at least 5,000 yuan. ”

Liao Fanmin stuffed the money to Xu Wenqing and dragged Xu Wenqing to the house where the fire was roasted.

Seeing Xu Wenqing enter the room where the fire was roasting, Liao Fanmin turned around and left, so there was no need for him to go in.

More than ten minutes later, Liao Tiangui walked out of the room with a smile on his face, and Liao Zexi and Xu Wenqing followed behind.

Liao Zexi looked at Liao Fanmin, with an appreciative look in his eyes.

The Spring Festival Gala must be watched, although the TV at home is not very big, but a large family sits around to watch TV, the atmosphere is still very good.

Liao Fanmin didn't have much interest in the Spring Festival Gala.

Sun Kaixiu took the second daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law to the kitchen, and had to prepare supper at night, and this time, Xu Wenqing also followed.

The cousin and cousin were very attached to Liao Fanyao, and they had always followed Liao Fanyao's side, and they even took out the firecrackers on their bodies to Liao Fanyao.

Liao Zexi patted Liao Fanmin on the shoulder, and the two walked out of the house again.

The sound of firecrackers in the mountain village still rang non-stop.

"Xiaomin, did you ask your mother to give money to your grandfather? ”

Liao Fanmin nodded, there is nothing worth hiding about such a thing.

"It's all your money. ”

Liao Fanmin turned his head to look at Liao Zexi and nodded again.

"Xiaomin, you are more sensible than I imagined, you know that you want your mother to give money to your grandfather, when your grandfather took the money, his hands were shaking, and tears almost fell, your grandfather knew that there was too much money out of our family, and he knew that I was embarrassed, if your mother didn't want to, I couldn't help it, but your mother took the money differently. ”

When Liao Zexi spoke, he kept looking ahead.

"Dad, I also think that the conditions at home are much better this year, taking out the money is nothing, Dad is the boss of the family, and a lot of responsibilities should be borne, grandparents are old, and Dad's money can make the family resolve conflicts, how is it worth it. ”

"Xiaomin, I am really satisfied with having a good son like you. ”

"Dad, don't say that, Yaoyao is even better than me, and she will definitely be able to be admitted to Peking University. ”

。。。

"What are you two talking about? ”

When Xu Wenqing appeared behind, Liao Zexi hurriedly wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.

"Lao Xu, I really thank you today, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know how to deal with it. ”

"Don't talk about me, in fact, when I listen to Xiaomin, my heart is not happy, the three thousand yuan is taken out by Xiaomin, and the family always uses Xiaomin's money, and I am not comfortable... ”

"Hehe, you should be happy when your children are angry. ”

Seeing Xu Wenqing wiping the corners of his eyes, Liao Zexi hurriedly spoke.

This scene made Liao Fanmin very emotional, but also a little embarrassed.

"Dad, Mom, go watch TV, or grandparents will come out." ”

The customs of the Spring Festival in the countryside are still adhered to, for example, in the Chinese New Year's Eve, you must keep vigil, it is best not to sleep all night, even if you want to sleep, you have to wait until after twelve o'clock.

After the Spring Festival Gala began, Liao Fanyao watched TV attentively.

Taking care of his cousin and cousin naturally fell on Liao Fanmin, the two little guys couldn't watch the TV, and shouted to set off firecrackers, Liao Fanmin took the two children to set off firecrackers outside.

Soon Liao Zebing also came out and set off firecrackers with him, which surprised Liao Fanmin.

Soon Liao Fanmin was relieved, there are not many entertainment activities in the countryside, and there are not many things to do, either farming, or being in a daze at home, Xuanming City is not a developed place, there is no opportunity to make money in the countryside, in this case, Liao Zebing's boredom is also imaginable.

Thinking of this, Liao Fanmin felt sad, this is probably a situation that exists in many rural areas, and only when society really progresses, will this situation slowly disappear.
