In the countryside, in fact, not much attention is paid to birthdays, especially the birthdays of young adults, most of them are longevity noodles with poached eggs after eating, or adding a few good dishes to the dinner table. Only the elderly people, the younger generations will call relatives and set up a few tables to celebrate on his (her) birthday, which in addition to filial piety, there is also the meaning of one less for the elderly's birthday.

Today is different, today is Wang Hongying's 40th birthday, which is a relatively important birthday. She got married at the age of seventeen, and for twenty-three years, she pulled her brother-in-law and helped her brother-in-law start a family, which can be said to be a great contribution to the Li family, and she has to spend this birthday well.

Early this morning, Li Jiaming's second aunt took a few concubines to work, and a few half-grown girls and sisters also put down the books in their hands and wanted to help the adults do some work, but they were bombarded into the study by the aunts. It's not that no one does things at home, you are either in the third year of junior high school or high school, just study hard and study hard.

However, the full sister and little sister who have finished their homework can play, and they all make trouble behind the aunts, and there is today's birthday star, she hugged Li Wan, who slept when she was full, and she couldn't keep her mouth shut.

I'm happy, I've been married for more than 20 years, not to mention helping my two uncles start a family, and the house has prospered in the past two years. The eldest son is sensible, he learned to drive and found a job of more than 1,000 yuan, and when he gets paid, he buys himself a birthday gift. The youngest son is also good, he trains hard, studies hard, and entered the top 20 in the whole grade in the last final exam. The eldest daughter is also good, although her husband has not agreed to her marriage, but Da Mao is competitive and obedient, and she can earn more than 1,000 yuan a month, and she gave it all to Xiaolan.

Even happier was yet to come, and at nine or ten o'clock the men returned. The two brothers Li Chuanzu and Chuanzong got together and gave their sister-in-law a complete set of gold jewelry, including gold necklaces, gold rings, gold earrings, and gold bracelets.

"Sister-in-law, I've worked hard for you for so many years. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to afford it with the Ancestral House, and I would still be able to ask for a kiss and give birth to a cub? ”

"Hehe, if you want it, you have to get it, sister-in-law has accepted your love."

This matter is Wang Hongying's proudest, Chongxiang Thirteen Villages, which woman can compare to her? helped the two little uncles to build a house and ask for relatives, although they made two small mud houses, it was also done by the two husbands and wives who were greedy for the dark and took the two uncles to do it.

Hey, even the new aunt only wore a small gold ring when she entered the door, and the beautiful full sister looked at the gold jewelry in the red box and couldn't take her eyes off it, and even the little sister leaned over to look at it.

Wang Hongying is a generous person, seeing the two youngest nieces coming to him, and just now he got a gift of one dollar from two little guys, and he was even more happy with these two conscientious nieces, and funnily picked up the bracelet he hadn't worn yet, and put one on his wrist and let them wear it to play.

"I'm glad."

"Well, it's a little bigger. Auntie, is this for me? ”

What are these words? The second aunt who came to give her birthday gift with a tweed coat and leather shoes slapped her on the little head of the beautiful Manmei, and scolded with a smile: "Send and send, you will know that you want others to send you something, and you want to exchange it for two or three thousand yuan for one dollar?" Hurry up and return it to Auntie, this thing is expensive, and if it is broken, it will be sold to the two of you to pay for it! ”

"Oh".

Is it so expensive? The two little ones hurriedly returned the bracelet to their aunt.

This thing is really expensive, you can't always play with the little girl, Aunt Hongying, who was happy, took the bracelet, carefully put it on her wrist, touched the melon seeds on the heads of the two, and quipped: "Shimei, don't scare them, you are red-eyed, right?"

Manmei, Wenwen, study hard, as long as you can get into college, your aunt will also give you gold necklaces and gold earrings! Tsk, when you study in the future, how beautiful is it to wear gold and silver? ”

"Really?"

What's in it? These things are expensive, and they are only a few thousand dollars. It's not that there is no money in the house, as long as these girls and girls can be admitted to college, Wang Hongying, who is happy, really doesn't care about thousands of dollars.

"It's still cooked! Sister Gui, Sister Jin, you too, if you are admitted to college, your aunt will be awarded. See, no, these things are awarded to you! ”

Li Xiaolan, who was helping her mother put on the necklace, had hot eyes and discussed: "Mom, then when I get married, you will also give a set, right?" ”

These words made Wang Hongying's heart a little blocked, Da Mao was obedient, but he was too slippery and not responsible. I ran early in the morning to give a gift and ran, for fear that Chuanmeng would come back and scold him. A man, scolding will make people scold twice, not to mention that it is the future father-in-law who scolds you, as for not even daring to eat here?

"You? Don't even think about it, a girl who can't read, it's good that I didn't ask for your bride price, and you still want me to pay for it? ”

"Mom, you're too partial, aren't you?"

"Am I eccentric? If I'm biased, I don't bother to take care of your business, but you're back, go and talk to him. A girl's family, going up and down with Da Mao all day long, do you want to save face? Da Mao too, such a big person, you Ye Ye Ye will not beat him, are you so afraid? If you're so afraid, don't mess with you, something that doesn't fight for anger! ”

Today is a happy day, and the second aunt hurriedly quipped: "Sister Hongying, do you think Da Mao is Brother Chuanmeng?" Tsk, haven't you seen it, when Brother Chuan Meng knelt in front of Uncle Shuchong's house, no matter whether he beat or scolded, he just didn't leave, and he knelt for a long time. ”

mentioned the events of the year, the birthday star was also happy, time flies so fast, it has been more than 20 years in a blink of an eye. At the beginning, she was a little girl, if it weren't for the fierce criminals, she might not have dared to make such a fierce quarrel with her family.

However, Da Mao Ling was really not as unbearable as Aunt Hongying said, and when it was almost time to have lunch, he came again on a motorcycle, and cheekily sat at a table with Li Jiaming. On a good day, Li Chuanmeng is not easy to scold, this kid is cunning.

Today is a good day, her brothers and maiden brothers are all together, Wang Hongying looked at Da Mao Ling, who was sitting at the same table with Li Jiaming, and her heart was even more comfortable. This guy is a little slippery, but he is still responsible.

After eating, several brothers, wives and brothers sat in the cool ancestral hall to drink tea, smoke cigarettes, and gossip.

Li Chuantian, who is named uncle and niece with Li Xiaolan and is actually similar to his brother and sister, saw that his niece was always wandering outside, so he hurriedly took advantage of the happiness of the lobby brother and interceded: "Big brother, you don't have to take Xiaolan's affairs." If you want me to say, Da Mao Ling will make money, and he has a good temperament, at most, he likes to touch two cards, and he will kill Xiaolan in the future, and he can still fly? ”

The eldest son is not the mother, and the eldest daughter is not the father, Li Xiaolan and Da Mao Ling go in and out of pairs every day, and those who know know that they sleep in separate rooms, but what about those who don't know?

Li Chuan, who didn't look down on Da Mao, glanced at his daughter outside, and Da Mao, who was bent his neck and pretending to be a dead dog on the side, sighed secretly and called her in.

"Xiaolan, did you hear what Uncle Man said? If Da Mao Yan promises to take care of the money in the future in front of the Wang family, Ye Ye has no opinion on this matter. If you don't, I'd rather you die in the house than marry you to a gambler!" ”

Li Xiaolan was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled the big hairy man who was lying in the corner over, and promised: "No problem!" yes, my money is all in my hands, don't you see that he likes to play cards, he always only has a hundred yuan on him, and he will get up after losing. ”

"Really?"

"Really, don't you believe asking Jiaming, the last time You Yuan did a white happy event, he saw it."

Li Jiaming, who was helping his sisters pour hot water, was stunned for a moment, and looked at Mao Yan hesitantly, he really didn't pay attention to that matter, and only when he saw him nodding did he respond: "Uncle Chuanmeng, it's true." ”

Mao Yan saw it, that is true, Da Mao Ling just likes to play, and it has not reached the point of gambling. As long as that guy is not good at gambling, in fact, he is not bad, he will make money and serve Sister Lan, and his daughter will not suffer or be angry when she marries in the future.

However, the Wang family is not the Li family, and there are no family rules for women to manage the house and money. This said that the matchmaker had to use his own people, so he didn't have to talk nonsense with the matchmaker and gossip with others, Li Chuanmeng finally agreed happily: "Well, that's fine." Wait for Honghong to finish marrying the army, let Jinhua, oh no, she is busy with business and has a big belly. ”

Halfway through the words, Li Chuanmeng remembered the shrewdness of his new siblings last time. It's not fun to say that the matchmaker has to deal with the seven aunts and eight aunts over there, and let her, a shrewd person, go just right, so as to save the Wang family from messing around. Besides, Xiang Feng is uneven, why don't you ask Jiaming for help? There is no reason to marry her daughter and post so much money, Xiaolan will be wronged by the Wang family in the future.

"In this way, let Xiangfeng help you talk to the matchmaker, Shimei, Hongying, and you will also help beat the side drum. Anyway, I have only one condition, Lan Mei is either in charge of the house or money, and I agree. ”

"Hey!"

Li Xiaolan agreed very happily, but the big hairy girl next to her was so worried.
