Chapter 385: Begging at a While
After the first year of junior high school, the second year of junior high school.
The second year of junior high school is the day to return to my parents' home.
Qiaozhen originally planned to go back, but it snowed outside since the first night.
The snow was not small, and it was still falling, and by the time she got up early in the morning, it was white outside.
As soon as it snows, the road is not easy to walk, and there are children, who are afraid of the wind and cold, and are also afraid that the car will overturn if she is not careful, so she can't go back this year.
But I think Zhou can understand this.
Qiaozhen sent someone to Qian's house to ask, and learned that they would not go back.
The weather is not good, the road is not good, and the red moon is so big, a bad one can kill people.
Qiaozhen sent someone back to report to the Wang family, asking them not to wait for the two families, and to wait for the weather to improve, and then they would go back.
The snow was sparse for two or three days.
It's not that big, but it's cold.
In the year of Ruixue Zhaofeng, the snow is still good during the New Year, indicating that the crops will have a good harvest.
Anyway, they are all at home during the New Year, and they don't have to work, and everyone is willing to rest and watch the snow happily.
But the weather was terrible for the beggars in the town.
It was snowing and it was cold, and they couldn't get anything to eat, so they had to starve and freeze.
When Qiaozhen heard the situation, he hurriedly united the Yu family and the Yun family and set up a porridge shed together.
sent the steward and the servant and the maid to help, and began to give porridge and cotton clothes.
Originally, the Chen family could do this themselves, but Qiaozhen knew the truth of shooting the first bird with a gun.
Only by uniting several families will not be hated and gossiped about.
Such a righteous act was naturally praised. Those beggars and poor people have now put the Chen family and the Yu family. The Yun family is regarded as a home of charity.
Many people have also set up immortal tablets at home.
After surviving the snow, the weather is slowly improving.
But the porridge shed has not been removed, and it really makes people give up the porridge for half a month, so that the poor people in the town can get through the predicament, and it comes to an end.
On the sixteenth day of the first month, the Qian family came to report that Qiao Hong was born. Gave birth to a big fat boy. There are five pounds and two taels.
Qiaozhen was very happy to hear this, and she was overjoyed to learn that the mother and son were safe.
Let people reward the messengers. Then I prepared a gift and sent it to Qian's house.
Within three days, she couldn't go to see Qiaohong, so she could only go back when the Qian family ate noodles.
Qiaohong hasn't eaten noodles yet, and in a blink of an eye, it's the day of the Wang's ancient meeting.
The heavens of this day are very perfect. The sun is shining. It was a superb weather.
Qiaozhen packed everything early in the morning, brought gifts, and Chen Xuanyu, Sun Juhua, led Rourou, and set off with Chen Huaigong in his arms.
They didn't wait for the Qian family, because Qiaohong was in confinement, and she couldn't go. may be the only one Qian Xuezhong. I won't go too early.
When I arrived at Wang's house, a table had been set up in the courtyard of Wang's house.
Today, all the relatives of the royal family are here. There are a lot of people, and it is definitely impossible to sit in the house, so the yard must also be used.
Besides, it's cold in the house in winter.
The houses were all big and empty, and lighting a brazier was not a big deal, and it was not yet warm in the sun outside.
Zhou hurriedly picked up his eldest grandson.
"Oh, this is sinking again, this is ten pounds, the bag is so thick, but it is really pressing, I won't be able to hold it in two days."
Zhou complained in his mouth, but his face smiled.
The child Shen said that he ate well and his body was good, which was a desperate thing.
Qiao Zhen smiled and said, "Haven't you grown into a little fat pig?" ”
Then she said hello to Wang Changshun, Dazhong, Erzhong, and San'er.
Chengzi and Shengzi, Mingzi, and Wang Tao called out to the aunt. teased Rourou and looked at Xiao Huaigong before going to the man's side to accompany Chen Xuanyu to talk.
Yuhua only came over to say hello, and then led the Jia family and a few people to the stove house to work, Rao is many dishes were ready, but she still had to be idle today.
She is the eldest daughter-in-law, and everything depends on her.
Qiaozhen glanced at it, the second sister-in-law Meihua was still with her, and she did not follow the sister-in-law to work.
The second sister-in-law is very diligent on weekdays and never rests, so why didn't she go to work today?
"Sister-in-law, are you feeling unwell?"
Qiaozhen pulled the plum blossom and asked secretly, her relationship with this sister-in-law has always been very good, and she can't forget the help her second sister-in-law helped her when she first came.
Plum blossom listened to Qiaozhen's question, her face slowly turned red, and she lowered her head and said nothing.
"Haha, Zhen'er, don't ask your sister-in-law, she has nothing to worry about, she just has to rest, she can't be busy."
Zhou answered with a smile.
Seeing that my mother was smiling so happily, even the wrinkles on her old face were smiling, and then looking at my sister-in-law's shy appearance, there was something I didn't understand.
"Really, how many months? But congratulations to my sister-in-law. ”
Qiaozhen hurriedly congratulated, my sister-in-law has been looking forward to having another body, and this time she got her wish.
"It's only been two months, Lang Zhong said that he can't be tired, and he is afraid that the fetus will not sit steadily, so my mother won't let me be busy, in fact, I am not so delicate."
Plum Blossom's voice was very small, her face was soft, and there was a happy light in her eyes, and she finally got her wish.
"Well, what my mother said is reasonable, you have to be careful in the past three months, don't bump it, sit down, don't stand."
Qiaozhen hurriedly helped her sister-in-law and asked her to sit down.
My sister-in-law is older than herself, she has always been steady, and she has given birth to another one, so naturally she doesn't need to explain anything.
"Mother, it's so good outside, I'll go and help my milk out, it's warmer outside than inside."
Qiao Zhen remembered Chen again.
"Medium, medium, you go."
Zhou nodded hurriedly, she thought the same way, but the first mother-in-law said that she was afraid that it would not be decent to wait outside, so she had been staying in the house, and now Qiaozhen went to help her, she would definitely come out.
Qiaozhen went to the house again to help Chen out, and Grandma Yu also followed, and everyone sat in the courtyard, drinking water and talking.
Xiao Rourou couldn't be idle for a moment, and Sun Juhua and a mother-in-law couldn't look at her.
When her calves didn't stop, she ran here and there, and everything was new.
There is time to run unsteadily. And a few more falls.
In a few moments, the new clothes were covered with dirt.
Sun Juhua and her mother-in-law glanced at it helplessly, fortunately, Chen Xuanyu and Qiaozhen were reasonable, if they changed to another master. Seeing the young lady like this, it's strange not to scold them to death.
"Auntie, come over for a break, talk to grandma, leave her alone over there, let her run."
Qiaozhen shouted Sun Juhua, and Sun Juhua was focused on Rourou. I didn't even have time to speak.
Sun Juhua came over to say hello to her mother and talked for a while.
Chen looked at her and sighed a little in his heart.
I have lost my eldest daughter for so many years. I found it when I was old, although it was my daughter, but after all, after so many years, it was better to be a pro who had been by my side.
But the two of them get along well. The girl is also a filial person.
I wanted to keep her at home. Find her another one and let her live happily.
But she refused, first said to help Qiaozhen take care of things, and then she would come back when Qiaozhen got started.
But this time, she didn't think about going back to Zhuangzi'an to be born, she was used to the days in the Chen Mansion, and it was okay for her to go back to Wang's house for a few days, but she was not used to letting her stay for a long time.
That's it. It's all there, and it's good to have my granddaughter. will not treat her aunt badly. That's it.
I am old, and the juniors have the way of the juniors, as long as they are all good and happy, what else do they want.
Chen's idea Qiao Zhen didn't know.
For Sun Juhua, Qiao really wanted her to enjoy Qingfu, and also asked her whether she would like to live in her own house in the town or go back to Zhuangzi.
But Sun Juhua said that she was willing to stay in Chen's mansion, she was originally focused on Chen Xuanyu and Qiaozhen, and wanted to watch the two live a good life.
But now her mind is on Rourou and Chen Huaigong again, she doesn't see the two little ones, she is uneasy, she is willing to take care of the two in the Chen Mansion.
Auntie's intentions, Qiao Zhen understands, for her, Chen Xuanyu is the closest to her.
Since she was willing to stay in the Chen Mansion, why should she be reluctant.
Besides, she is here, she can worry a lot less, and when her aunt is old, she will provide for her by herself.
That's Qiaozhen's idea.
As a few people talked, relatives came one after another.
Qiaozhen's second aunt Xuemei also came, with a smile on her face, speaking with caution, and she couldn't see the original half of her arrogant appearance at all.
Wang Changfa led his daughter-in-law to sit down for a while and spoke.
Now the two major events have also come, and Qiaozhen, the second uncle's family, is not like the original, and it has been divided a lot.
For the sake of Chen's face, as long as the noodles are gone. The Wang family doesn't care about that.
By noon, the dishes began to be laid on the table.
When the relatives arrived, the house and the courtyard were full.
All ages sit down to eat and talk to people of all ages.
Qiaozhen sat at this table, Qiao'e, Osmanthus, and several of her cousins.
Qiaozhen ate some, and couldn't rest assured that the child went into the house to take a look.
The little guy slept soundly, and the noise outside did not affect him at all.
Qiao Zhen smiled, and then piled a quilt on the periphery for him.
In this way, when the child wakes up, he will flip twice and kick a few times, and he will not fall off the bed.
Out of the house, she was just about to return to her seat when she suddenly heard a voice at the door.
She walked over to see who was at the door.
When she got to the door, she saw an old man in his fifties.
The old man wore a torn hat, and his face was dark, and his face was full of folds.
He was wearing a ragged cotton coat, holding a broken bowl in his hand, and a broken pocket behind him.
It's a stranger and I don't know him.
"You do well, give me some food, give some money, I wish your family a lot of wealth and many grandchildren."
The old man really bent over.
Is it begging?
Qiaozhen frowned, how could anyone come to Zhuangzi to beg?
Qiao Zhen took out a few pennies from her bosom and handed it over, but she didn't have much change on her.
"Thank you, thank you, you are really a living bodhisattva, good people have good rewards, you can live a long life."
The old man took the money and hurried to it.
"No, I don't. What kind of place are you? Why do you come here to beg? ”
Qiao Zhen asked.
"Hey, I'm from another Zhuangzi, my family is poor, I don't have anything to eat, I can't live my life, I can only come out to beg for food, I can't be starved to death."
The old man's face was full of misery. (To be continued......)
