Pomegranate promised to live in Jiang's house until the third year of junior high school, and then return to live in the courtyard house on the fourth day of junior high school, because the cram school will start on the fifth day of junior high school. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After Jiang Hongyan and Lei Youliang got engaged, the relationship between the two was justified, and the engagement at that time was almost the same as marriage, and it was a relationship that was recognized by everyone.
So in the past few days of the Chinese New Year, Jiang Hongyan goes out early and returns late every day. and Lei Youliang go out to play together almost every day, and almost never go home for dinner.
Yu Qiuhong and Jianghushan also went out to visit relatives and friends, not to mention Jiang Hongfei, who took Wu Shufang and friends to eat, drink and socialize every day to maintain a relationship.
Jiang Hongxiang and Pomegranate went to run all over the parks and scenic spots in Nanshi.
At that time, there was no tourism, and the parks were simple, most of them were just lakes, there were some trees, and the flowers and plants were not well managed. And in those days for the Chinese New Year, most people went to the park to play, and there were people everywhere, all of which were garbage. Nothing to see.
In order to save time, they did not take the bus, but took a taxi, and there were no taxis at that time, so they took a tricycle.
So in three days, they ran over all the parks and scenic spots in Nanshi.
Pomegranate and Jiang Hongxiang came back early that day, and they planned to cook dinner at home, but the family didn't seem to have eaten at home in the past few days.
Pomegranate and Jiang Hongxiang were tired of eating things outside, so they came back early this day and cooked together.
The dishes were washed, cut, and prepared, and Jianghushan and Yu Qiuhong also returned.
As soon as they entered the door, they said with emotion: "Hey! I have been socializing every day for the past few days, and I am tired, but today I finally went home to cook a meal, and I am still comfortable in my own home. ”
Jiang Hongxiang said to his parents: "Pomegranate and I are preparing to cook!" Rest yourselves! Right away. ”
Pomegranate asked, "I don't know if my brother and sister will come back to eat, do you want to make more."
Yu Qiuhong said: "Leave them alone, if they don't come back now, they shouldn't come back to eat, even if they come back, let them get it themselves." Whoever asked them not to come back in time for the meal, this cooking is not easy to plan. ”
But the pomegranate still made enough portions, everyone has been playing for three days, and they have almost had enough! If the share of the work is not enough, it will be troublesome to do it again when the time comes.
Pomegranate said to Jiang Hongxiang while adding the amount of vegetables: "I'm afraid that they won't have enough to eat when they come back, so I added more, if they don't come back by then, there will be more left, will your mother complain that I am too wasteful?"
People at that time were very frugal, and in their eyes, waste was a sin.
Jiang Hongxiang said: "Although my mother is thrifty, she is not the kind of unreasonable person, she treats your kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, besides, if they come back, the credit for the wise decision is yours, if they don't come back, we will eat more vegetables, and put this matter on my head, saying that I asked to do so much." Anyway, it doesn't matter if I am complained about by my family. ”
With Jiang Hongxiang's responsibility and guarantee, Pomegranate made a large table of dishes with confidence.
And when the last dish was not out of the pot, Jiang Hongyan came back, and he also took Lei Youliang with him.
Jiang Hongfei also came in later.
Because of Lei Youliang's presence, when her daughter came back just now, Yu Qiuhong didn't say anything, and now that her son is back, she is about to eat, but before Yu Qiuhong told Pomegranate not to care about the share of the two children, the meal may not be enough!
Yu Qiuhong blamed Jiang Hongfei and said: "You said that you want to come back for dinner, you have to say hello in advance, or come back early, so that the family can be prepared."
Jiang Hongxiang said with a smile: "Enough, enough, Pomegranate had the foresight to say that you have been eating and playing outside for these days, and you should come back for dinner today!" So she had prepared enough meals for everyone to eat, and now that they are all ready, let's get ready to eat! ”
The pomegranate made the last dish, and all the dishes were served.
Jiang Hongfei ran over to take a look, the dish was an ordinary home-cooked dish, but it was exquisitely cooked, with two meat and three vegetables, and a soup, which made me want to eat it at a glance.
"I've been eating out for the past few days, and I'm tired of eating outside food, pomegranates, your dishes are light and refreshing when they look good, and they are very good for my current appetite."
Everyone sat down and prepared to eat.
Yu Qiuhong said: "You brothers and sisters, on the contrary, "is not as good as pomegranate, pomegranate is only eighteen years old, so much younger than you, and he still cooks for you." ”
Jiang Hongfei said: "Those who can work hard, pomegranate, I'll give you a big red envelope to reward you later."
Jiang Hongyan said: "Brother, you can transfer my share to Pomegranate, which can be regarded as a gift from me, the elder sister, to her."
"Hongyan, I don't understand what you say, how can I say the share I gave you? I gave the pomegranate red envelope to reward her for sacrificing her time to cook for everyone, I didn't say I wanted to treat you, what did you do that I need to treat? ”
"Brother, it's the New Year, don't you have to give small red envelopes to the big ones? You are my brother, I am your sister, and it is natural for you to send me red envelopes. ”
Jiang Hongfei pointed at his sister speechlessly, "What are you...... Swear black is white.! ”
"What? Reluctantly? You just said that pomegranates work hard, you are so rich, and rich people should give out more red envelopes, you invite those wine and meat friends to eat outside every day without blinking your eyes, but you are so stingy with your family. ”
Jiang Hongfei said: "Okay, good! I'll send it, I'll send it to you! ”
Jiang Hongfei took out a large stack of money from his arms, the money at that time, the largest denomination was ten yuan, Jiang Hongfei sent fifty yuan to Jiang Hongyan and Lei Youliang, as well as Pomegranate and Jiang Hongxiang.
At that time, 50 yuan was a lot of money, which was the salary income of ordinary people for more than two months or even three months.
Lei Youliang said that he didn't want anything, saying that he was already a working person, and he was not a child, how could he still have a red envelope from his brother-in-law!
Jiang Hongyan accepted it for him unceremoniously.
She kept her share for thirty and gave Pomegranate twenty dollars, saying that she gave Pomegranate.
Pomegranate excused herself, and Jiang Hongxiang not only accepted the eldest brother's red envelope for her, but also Jiang Hongyan's.
Jiang Hongxiang still said unrelentingly: "Sister, what about my share?"
Jiang Hongyan said: "The share given to the pomegranate includes your share."
Jiang Hongxiang said: "You give twenty pomegranates, which is enough, including my share." Can you get a red envelope of ten yuan? ”
Jiang Hongyan was ashamed, "I am a poor student with no economic income, and it is good to be able to give each of you a red envelope of ten yuan, how can I compare to the rich man of the eldest brother?" He casually invited others to eat a meal, which was my food expenses for half a year. ”

Sorry, it's late to go back to my hometown these days!
