Chapter 529: Back to the door
From this day on, Aunt Xia was a little afraid of Layue. Of course, this later turned out to be a good thing.
Seeing that the Chinese New Year is approaching, Sun Lan'er is pregnant again, and the Xia family can be described as a double happiness.
Xia Zhi chatted with Sun Lan'er and asked her how she felt. Sun Lan'er said that except for being nauseous sometimes, she didn't have any other uncomfortable feelings. Sun Lan'er still manages the housework as before, serving in front of the Tian family.
Tian beat Sun Lan'er a few times, just to tell Sun Lan'er not to think that it would be great to be pregnant with a child, and what to do as a new daughter-in-law. Sun Lan'er didn't think that Tian was beating, she thought Tian was right.
In the face of such Sun Lan'er, the Tian family couldn't stand up. When she talked to Xia Zhi about Sun Lan'er, she couldn't tell what was wrong with Sun Lan'er.
"Lanzi is okay, it's her stepmother......" Tian now mentions that Sun Wang's family is Sun Lan'er's stepmother, and the once deep friendship between the two women has long since collapsed.
"Lanzi is not doing this, she is arrogant first, and always asks her two boys to ask for this and that. This is still in front of me, and I can't tell Lanzi for something behind my back......"
Sun Lan'er is not completely devoid of feelings for her two half-brothers. However, she is not the kind of person who scrapes her mother-in-law's family to make up for her mother's family. But whenever Sun Wang and her two younger brothers ask her, she is usually thrifty and makes up for it herself, and it is not Sun Wang's who gives her whatever they want.
Sun Lan'er loves her brother, but she loves Xia Qiao even more, and she has deep feelings for the Xia family. Sun Lan'er would not do anything harmful to the Xia family for the sake of her mother's family.
For this, Xia Zhi is still very confident.
But Sun Wang's family is indeed a trouble, although Xia Qiao and Sun Lan'er are more assertive now, their temperament is still weaker.
Fortunately, there is also Tian's.
"Mother, don't you still have this. Xia Zhi said to Tian with a smile.
At this time, they are picking out mushrooms and fungus for the New Year.
Tian snorted: "If it weren't for me, your brother and the two of them would have to let Lanzi and her stepmother eat it raw." Saying this, Tian was a little proud.
"Mother, you have to watch it a little, don't let my Sister Lanzi suffer too much. Xia Zhi reminded Tian again.
"I know. Lanzi is from our family. I'm not as ignorant of the inside and outside as you are, can I not protect Lanzi?" Tian said, and her dissatisfaction with the summer solstice was brought out in and out of her words.
Xia Zhi just laughed and didn't argue with Tian. As long as there is no mistake in major matters, Tian's complaints and numbers are only in her ears.
Who made this man his mother? And Xia Zhi also found out that in the past two years, I don't know if it's because of age or because of illness, Tian has become nagging.
The Xia family is naturally very lively this year.
But the big guy is looking forward to the second day of the Lunar New Year.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the new aunts and old aunts of the Xia family came.
Aunt Xia and Uncle Guo brought pearls, and they came with Li Xia and Tian Mi'er. Also came with Crescent Moon and Liu Fengcai.
Liu Fengcai came to Daxingzhuang for the first time, and many people in the Xia family also saw him for the first time. Therefore, when they got out of the car, everyone's eyes almost focused on Liu Fengcai.
Liu Fengcai is not tall, and he is slightly fat, but he is not ugly. He stood there and faced the Xia family quite calmly.
Xia Zhi nodded secretly, no matter what his appearance was, Liu Fengcai's demeanor was still okay. Although Mr. Liu's family is not rich, it is quite well-founded, and his sons have had a strict education since they were young, which is not bad.
Li Xia was compared to Liu Fengcai and became an old man. Of course, he won't fight for this, and he also introduced Liu Fengcai to Old Man Xia, Old Lady Xia and others.
Everyone crowded into the house, and Liu Fengcai and Crescent Moon officially greeted everyone in the Xia family.
This is the first time that Liu Fengcai and Crescent Moon have visited the door to recognize their relatives. Liu Fengcai followed the crescent moon to call everyone in the Xia family, and also brought rich gifts.
The new aunt came to visit the door for the first time, and the elders of the Xia family also had to give a meeting gift. This matter was all done by Xia Zhi himself, and it was prepared years ago.
Old Man Xia, Mrs. Xia, Xia Xiucai, Tian's family, Second Uncle Xia, Second Aunt Xia, as well as Third Uncle Xia and Third Aunt Xia gave Liu Fengcai some good pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Such a gift is not bad, and it also has a good meaning. Liu Fengcai is a talented man, and now he is continuing to study, hoping to go further in the imperial examination.
In addition to the elders, Yueya'er was the oldest among the Xia family's peers, and she and Liu Fengcai also prepared gifts for their younger siblings.
The summer solstice got a small golden bill, and two bright rulers. She smiled and thanked Liu Fengcai and Crescent Yue'er.
Among the people in the Xia family, Liu Fengcai is the most familiar with Xia Zhi. He also smiled and talked to Xia Zhi.
"Your sister always talks about you. ”
"Brother-in-law, you are bullying my sister, my sister is nagging me, she must want me to give her a head. "The summer solstice said.
Liu Fengcai hurriedly waved his hand: "How could I bully your sister." Your sister misses you. ”
"You'd better tell the truth. Xia Zhi raised his eyebrows, smiling or not, "If you let me know that you are angry with my sister...... You should have heard of my reputation, I'm not as good as my sister ~ ...... temperament" The threat in the words is very obvious.
Liu Fengcai waved his hand again and again: "Don't dare, don't dare." ”
"He didn't bully me. Yue'er blushed and whispered to Xia Zhi.
"My sister said so, then I'll let you go this time, brother-in-law!" Xia Zhi smiled.
Liu Fengcai felt that the cold sweat on his back was about to come down.
Old Man Xia called Xia Zhi over and told her not to be so fierce to Liu Fengcai. After all, it was the first time for the new aunt to enter the door.
"That's why I'm a little fierce. Xia Zhi said with a smile.
This is also a kind of disadvantage. Although Liu Fengcai and Crescent Moon look like they get along very well, and there will be Mrs. Jiugu to take care of Crescent Moon in the future, Xia Zhi still wants Liu Fengcai to know that there are people in Crescent Moon's mother's family, and no one can bully them at will.
Old Man Xia smiled and didn't say anything more.
Everyone knows this kind of thing. It's as if the new daughter-in-law has to face a test when she enters the door, and when the new aunt returns to the door, the mother's family will not only warm up but also make a stand.
As for what kind of test it will be, and how to take a stand, it will depend on each family's own situation.
Liu Fengcai was given a disappointment by Xia Zhi, and when he turned his head, he complained to Li Xia.
"It's so powerful, how can you stand it!"
"I think it's good. Li Xia said disappreciatively, because when he saw Xia Zhi walking by, he smiled at Xia Zhi.
Liu Fengcai felt that Li Xia's appearance was a little silly. However, he is still a young man, and he can understand Li Xia's feelings.
This is the flower into the eye, the lover's eye out of the Xi Shi.
The Xia family is very satisfied with Liu Fengcai.
Old man Xia thinks that Liu Fengcai is a scholar, and his speech and demeanor look like he has a good tutor. Mrs. Xia felt that Liu Fengcai had a gentle temperament, and she would not be angry with the crescent moon.
Xia Xiucai also felt that Liu Fengcai was a scholar, and he was very kind of to his spleen and stomach. Tian also has no opinion on Liu Fengcai.
Liu Fengcai was very respectful to the Tian family, and shouted one by one.
"The aunt of the eldest brother's family is one by one. Second Uncle Xia said to Second Aunt Xia in the east wing.
"Not really. This old Liu family is not as rich and powerful as the old Li family, and it is also a rich man. Look at the things that people sent, and then look at the clothes on the two of them......"
Liu Fengcai and Crescent Moon compared May and Zhang Fang.
Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia are still a little self-aware, and they never dare to compare May and Zhang Fang with Xia Zhi and Li Xia.
"The same brother! one was born to a mother, the other was raised by a father. Look at the people, and then look at us!" Second Aunt Xia glanced at Second Uncle Xia obliquely.
"Hey!" Second Uncle Xia sneered, "My brother is a showman, I don't know a few big characters! I'm going to make you a crooked, and I didn't let you go hungry naked. If it weren't for me, Erzhu and May would not be as good as they are now. ”
There was laughter and excitement outside. Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia did not continue to ridicule each other.
"It's time for May. ”
"It's supposed to come. ”
said that Cao Cao Cao had arrived, and as soon as their words fell, there was a bustle outside the gate.
In May, he and Zhang Fang came to pay New Year's greetings, and then in June, the two of them also came.
The Xia family is even more lively. I couldn't sit in the landlord's house in the backyard, so I moved to the west room. Xia Zhi brought Crescent Moon, Tian Mi'er, and a group of big girls and little daughters-in-law to Sun Lan'er's house in the front yard to talk.
Everyone first congratulated Sun Lan'er. Then the topic turned to the crescent moon, and some asked if the crescent moon had a body.
Moon's face immediately turned red again. Although she became a relative and became a daughter-in-law, Yue'er was still so shy and blushing.
"No, no. Crescent replied with a blushing face.
"Where is it so fast, Sister Yue'er has only been married for a few days. Sun Lan'er said.
"We still have to get pregnant quickly. Tian also followed, and she taught Yueya Er in a straight way, saying that she was old, and if she didn't conceive a child earlier, it would be even more difficult in the future.
It's not just hard to conceive, it's hard to be born.
And the crescent moon is going to fill the house, so it is even more necessary to add a son as soon as possible.
"You see that your grandmother can live in our house, and that's because of your third uncle. Tian also said that he didn't mind that Layue was still there.
"Mother, my brother-in-law and they are all in the backyard, why don't you go over and take a look. "Xia Zhi is easy to talk about, so he pushed Tian to the backyard.
Tian was not present, and everyone's topic was relaxed.
"What is my brother-in-law doing to you?" everyone rushed to ask.
"Very good. Crescent replied.
No matter how everyone asks, the crescent moon is these two words. Everyone can't take the crescent moon anymore.
Xia Zhi asked the crescent moon how the Liu family's house in Fucheng was tidying up.
"Almost. "This topic is very talking. She and Liu Fengcai had been to the mansion in Fucheng before they came to Daxingzhuang. "Just a few more furnishings. ”
That's to clean up.
furnishings and the like, Mrs. Jiugu will have a lot of dowries at that time. In her house, of course, she has to put things she likes.
"I'll go back and have a look. When the time comes, I'll bring someone to clean up the house for you. "Xia Solstice said to the crescent moon.
Yue'er nodded, looking forward to moving back to Fucheng to live.
"Sister, are you still used to it there?" Xia Solstice asked the crescent moon in a low voice.
Crescent Moon thought for a while: "It's okay." ”
How can you get used to it so quickly!
Xia Zhi understood: "My brother-in-law's sister-in-law, is it easy to get along?"
"It's ok. "The crescent moon is still these two words.
Summer Solstice is not happy.
As soon as Yue'er saw Xia Zhi's face, she hurriedly added: "It's good to speak." I don't care about my family, and I don't care about anything. I don't need her for anything. In the future, I will also be with Jiugu. ”
Xia Zhi observed the words and looks, and knew that the grandmother of the Liu family must be a tricky character.
But just as the crescent moon said, the two wells do not interfere with the river water, Liu Jiada~ grandma is difficult, with the crescent moon's temperament, it is better to stay away from that Liu Da~ grandma.
It's what's there, and she, and Mrs. Jiugu.
"What did my brother-in-law say......" Xia Solstice asked the crescent moon quietly.
"He told me to be polite to his sister-in-law. He also told me what his sister-in-law said, tell me not to take it to heart. He...... He is protecting me. His sister-in-law didn't speak well, and I wouldn't talk back, so he helped me go back. ”
"Oh, oh......" Xia Zhi asked the details clearly, and Liu Fengcai was also happy in his heart.
As long as Liu Fengcai knows that he is protecting the crescent moon, the eldest wife of the Liu family and the like are floating clouds. After all, the crescent moon is going to live with Liu Fengcai until she grows old.
While they were talking, Xiao Heiyuer and Xiao Shu'er brought Daqing and ran over, saying that they wanted to take Tian Mi'er out to play.
Tian Mi'er has come to Daxingzhuang many times, and the children of the Zhuang family can play, and the little black fish almost took her to play.
But Tian Mi'er is also as big as a day. And Xia Zhi felt that it was very cold today, so he didn't let Tian Mi'er and the little black fish go out.
"Let's just play in the house. Xia Zhi said.
The words of the summer solstice are more effective than the words of the old lady Xia.
Although the little black fish muttered dissatisfiedly, she did not resist. He and Xiao Shu'er ran out for a while, and then they came in with a few black things wrapped in oiled paper.
It was still steaming and smelling good.
"The roasted house finch is delicious. The little black fish said with a smile.
This one can be eaten.
As a result, Xia Zhi, Tian Mi'er, and Crescent Moon ate all the roasted sparrows. Sun Lan'er took a bite and liked it very much.
"I'll tell my brother in a moment, let him catch a house finch and roast it for you. Xia Solstice laughed.
"Don't tell your brother. Your brother would never do that. Sun Lan'er was busy and stopped.
Xia Qiao was very Sven when he was a child, and he never climbed trees and walls like other village boys. The slingshot boy who was particularly obsessed with when he was a child didn't like to play much.
"If my nephew were like my brother......" Summer Solstice let go of the wings of imagination and laughed.
Xia Qiao knew that Sun Lan'er wanted to eat roasted sparrows. Although he can't catch it himself, he has his own methods. Sun Lan'er was pregnant ~ During her pregnancy, she didn't eat less roasted sparrows, which is of course a later story.
The troupe invited by Xia Zhi also came today, and they played and sang on the stage that had been set up.
After dinner, everyone watched the play under the stage.
Li Xia and Xia Solstice are not far apart. Taking advantage of the fact that the person in the middle walked away, Li Xia leaned over and whispered, "I almost forgot, Tian Kuo can't come tomorrow." ”21010
