Old Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen didn't like Xiao Sun's confrontation with the elders very much, and felt that she was domineering and jealous, and she had no virtue of being a woman. At this moment, I heard that Feng said that Xiao Sun was pregnant, but he turned his mouth and said: "Since I am pregnant, after all, the heir is important." What did your mother say? ”

When Feng Shi heard this, he had to say: "Mother is naturally happy. I also said that I wanted to reason with my sister-in-law's mother's family, and this will be fine. It's my sister-in-law's mother's family, and the old lady and the old lady personally paid a gift to compensate for it. Mother didn't say anything. ”

Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "Theory or not, it doesn't matter. Just say that your sister-in-law's Lao Tzu Niang understands things, this is the rule of the scholar's family. ”

Chen Qi sat crookedly on the Taishi chair and crossed Erlang's legs, swallowing melon seeds on one wall and shaking his head disapprovingly, and sneered: "What is there to theorize?" As long as her sister-in-law has a stomach, she will give birth to a baby son to the Feng family in October. This matter has been revealed. If you don't fight and get another girl, the old lady doesn't reason, if you investigate it, the show will be behind! ”

When the people heard this, they were silent.

The second sister listened in a daze, unconsciously thinking of what Chen said angrily in the morning. After thinking about it carefully, I felt a cold heart.

Between talking and laughing, it is already the time to hold the lamp. Then the mother-in-law who was waiting on the stove came to ask when the meal would be served. Chen Qi and his wife had already come to the house after dinner at Feng's house, and they were not hungry at this time. But when I saw that there was a ham soup stewed with pheasant cubs for dinner, it smelled mellow and fragrant, and I didn't feel that my index finger moved. Chen Jue smiled and said, "Wow, while we are away, you have eaten good things." ”

Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "It's the New Year's goods sent by the Zhang family." When I saw that it was fresh, I ordered one to be stewed on the stove, and to make rice in this pheasant soup, which was sweeter than gruel. ”

Chen Qi said with a smile: "My father and mother are old, so I should have a good life and nourish my body." These ambitions are the most nourishing. It's a pity that my son is useless, he can't give birth to Gao Tang, and he has to eat the good things of your second elder. ”

Old Lady Chen reprimanded: "Hugh wants to say these light words. I don't like to hear it. ”

When Chen Jue heard this, he still smiled and said, "Since my father doesn't like to hear it, I won't say it." Eat a bowl of stock and gag it. ”

After that, he still ordered the little girl who was waiting on the side to add half a bowl of rice and eat it in chicken soup.

Mrs. Chen ordered Feng Shi, Chen Huan, and Chen Wan to eat a little more. All three shook their heads. Feng Shiyin smiled: "We don't have that good appetite. It's okay to eat just one meal. ”

Glad to finish the meal. The second sister hurriedly instructed the stove to send some lime powder, dogwood powder, pepper and some spicy and pungent spices and medicinal noodles to the room to drum up. Chen knew what kind of "anti-wolf medicine" the second sister was going to make, and immediately watched with a smile. And he asked, "Does it work?" Don't work all day in vain, it's useless. ”

The second sister smiled and said, "It's useless, let's make it and see." Are you prepared? ”

Chen sneered, "With your uncle here, it works better than any potion." If you believe it or not, you will know in the day. ”

The second sister still smiled and said, "I believe in my uncle." It's just that Bai is ready to be at ease. ”

After that, looking at the powder on the table, You sighed: "It's a pity that there is no small watering can, otherwise it will be better than powder if it is poured into water and carried with you." ”

Chen covered his itchy nose and was very unimpressed. The eldest sister also frowned and said, "This smell is too choking, I don't want to wear it out on the Yuan Festival." She has become a cook on the stove. ”

When the second sister heard this, she said, "Is it important to live and be safe?" Or is it important to choke on a little? What's more, we wrap it tightly in oiled paper, and then put it in the purse, how big can it taste? You're too squeamish, too. ”

When the eldest sister heard this, she shook her head again and again, thanking Bumin.

Chen was beside him, leaning back and closing in more and more laughter.

The second sister persuaded the eldest sister several times, but when she saw that the eldest sister blindly shook her head, she didn't fight it. I had to say hatefully, "I don't know the goods", and I divided the seasoning powder into several oil paper packets and put them into a few small purses. The next day, they sent Feng and Chen Wan, and when the mother and daughter saw the so-called "anti-wolf medicine", they were so good at laughing and laughing, and let the second sister's tongue bloom, and they refused to hang on their bodies. However, Chen Qi saw that this thing was novel and interesting, and asked the second sister for a pack.

The second sister is unavoidable.

Two days later is the Shangyuan Festival. During the day, Zhang Luo, the head of the inner and outer courtyards of the Chen Mansion, led his mothers-in-law and children to climb the ladder and hang up the newly pasted lanterns. All kinds of lanterns are hung under the eaves of the porch, on the dead branches, and in front of the door plaque, even if they have not been lit, they still make people feel that the flowers are full of flowers, and they are refreshing.

When it was time to turn on the lanterns at night, the rough housekeepers, daughters-in-law and boys carried lamp oil to light the lanterns one by one. But seeing the □□ lanterns that shape the whole courtyard as if it were day, and there is the moonlight contending, the lights and the moon are corresponding, people only stand on the verandah and look out, only feel that even the heart is bright.

When it came to the treetops of the moon, everyone in the Chen family was dressed and ready to go out. The one-color Cui Hu clear oil car was pulled by the boys to the small courtyard outside the second gate, the old lady and the old lady are a car, Feng and Chen's eldest sister and second sister have a car, Chen Jue and Chen Wan have a car. There were also maids who were waiting for each person in a car, and the maids and maids who followed were all on the side.

Four mule-taming green oil carts and fish ran out of the gate of Chen's mansion and drove all the way down the secluded Luo Lane to the street. But after a brief period of darkness and seclusion, there was the noisy sound of people's voices, the endless shouts of small traders and merchants, the whistles and explosions of fireworks, and even the sound of talented literati parading the streets guessing lantern riddles. There are also a lot of stalls that you can't make out or can't make out, and the sweet smell wafts in through the cracks in the car curtains.

It's getting brighter and brighter outside. Through the carriage curtain, the second sister could see that the glazed lanterns exuded dazzling brilliance. She couldn't help but secretly lift the curtain and look out.

Suddenly, I saw a full of lanterns, all kinds of colors, a thousand lotus petal lamps with a pile of leno, peony and peony lanterns, koi phoenix lamps made of colored paper paste, transparent hydrangea lamps made of glass, and even dizzying horse lanterns...... The small ones are just the size of a palm, and they are held in their hands to enjoy and play, but the big ones are taller than people, and the top of the feet cannot be seen when they look up. There are also wishing lanterns fluttering in the river and dazzling flower boats......

The environment in which the second sister lived in her previous life was so comfortable and comfortable, but she had never seen such a lively lantern festival. She leaned on the window of the car and looked out, but saw BMW carved cars, sparks and silver trees, pedestrians, and fish and dragons flying. It is really an indescribable prosperous world, and an endless peaceful romance.

When he was in a daze, the Cui Hu clear oil truck of the Chen Mansion suddenly stopped. Everyone leaned forward by inertia, and saw Chen Jue and Chen Huan father and son jumping out of the carriage in the back, stepped forward and said, "There are too many people in front, and the carriage can't pass." Just stop here, and we'll take care of the rest. ”

Chen Qi said, still asking the children who followed the car to take out a dozen or so river lanterns with pink petals from the carriage, pointed to the bluestone slab bridge in front of him and said with a smile: "There is a bridge in front, we put river lanterns under the bridge first, and then go to the lantern festival?" ”

This idea is naturally excellent, and everyone in the Chen Mansion has responded one after another. The second sister has never let go of the river lantern during the Shangyuan Festival, and she feels even more novel for a while. Seeing the family reunion during the Shangyuan Festival, I didn't know what time it was, I didn't know where my family was now, and I didn't know whether the qiē I experienced in front of me was really illusory.

When I was secretly stunned, I had already been surrounded by my family and went to the river under the bluestone bridge. I saw that there are still many visitors on both sides of the stone bridge are putting river lanterns, and the river lanterns lit with small wax carry the wishes of the owner, fluttering to the middle of the water, and meandering down along the river, ups and downs, fluctuating. From a distance, it looks like a galaxy of stars gathering.

Holding his lotus lantern in his hand, Chen half-squatted in front of the bluestone bridge and closed his eyes and muttered reverently for a while before putting the river lantern into the water. Clasped her hands together and muttered for a while like a believer, and then opened her eyes as if she had fulfilled her wish. When I turned around, I saw that the second sister was still standing aside in a daze with the river lantern, and I didn't know what I was thinking. Chen was angry and funny. Because he scolded: "I thought you were a clever and transparent person, who wanted to go out but you looked like a nest who had never seen the world, it was really embarrassing for me." ”

After that, he urged the second sister to release the river lantern. "Everyone is finished, just waiting for you."

The second sister came back to her senses and smiled unconsciously. Hurriedly squatted beside the river and quietly put the river lantern. Chen Shiyou muttered behind him, "You forgot to make a wish, what a fool." ”

Mrs. Chen couldn't see it, so she hurriedly opened her mouth to dissuade her: "Her children are tightly confined at home, so she is naturally a little timid. Just go through it a few more times. Why do you bother talking about her? ”

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a clear voice behind him, and asked with a smile: "The one in front, but Brother Ruzhang?" ”
