Chapter 365: Confrontation (Recommended Votes Plus Update)
On the sixth day of the seventh month, the neighbors and relatives came, which is called a treat in Xiangyangtun, which means to warm up the wedding in advance.
There are not many relatives in the Zhou family, only Zhou Fu and Zhou Chunlai came to the grandmother's house, although they usually don't move around, but today they came, Zhou Yang also came forward to receive them, let them enter the house to sit and chat with the guests in the tunzi, and wait for a while.
Zhou Chunxi and Li Guizhi did not come, and Zhou Yang did not receive them. Whether it was unintentional or cowardly, Li Guizhi was involved in her mother's affairs back then, and their brothers and sisters would never have anything to do with her for the rest of their lives.
Zhou Ping had already asked people to bring 20 yuan and two quilts as a congratulatory gift, but she and her husband were rushing to meet the deadline at the construction site in the field and couldn't come.
All the relatives of the Li family also came, even the married Li Zhi'er and Li Miao'er came with their husbands and children, Zhou Yang received them warmly, stuffed all the children's pockets with snacks, and let them play with a group of little dolls led by Zhao Xiaosi'er.
Only Mrs. Li didn't come, "Your grandma will come back tomorrow, and the family will always have to leave someone to watch the house, and it's not okay to leave." Old man Li patted Zhou Yang's shoulder and didn't say anything more.
No one should leave Mrs. Li to take care of the house, she is a grandmother, and she should be here today.
"My grandmother didn't know why she cried this morning, but my father didn't let her come." Ya'er secretly told Zhou Wanwan.
"What else? Didn't an aunt come back and cry yesterday! Every time the milk cries, it's not because of their family! Ye Er didn't want to talk about Li Shuhua's family on the big day, and she didn't wait to see them every night, she couldn't be so eyeless. Add to the congestion on people's happy days.
"Nannan, you have to come back to see off your relatives when I get married, and you and Ya'er will still wear today's clothes!" Ye'er is twenty-two years old this year. I'm getting married in September.
The dresses that Ye Er and Ya'er wore today were all given by Zhou Wanwan, since they made clothes for the relatives of the Shi Yun family, of course they had to be made for their grandmother's family.
Zhou Wanwan and Ya'er's clothes are made of a piece of material, and the style is the same, both of them look very good-looking, and Ya'er wants to let her two beautiful sisters grow her face in her in-law's house on the day of her wedding.
"I also prepared a piece of material for you, and when my eldest brother gets married, we will discuss what to do carefully. If you want to make it look good, you'll wear it when you get married. β
"You paint me a picture, it must look good! When the time comes, Xu Dagang can be scared! "Talking about my wedding and my fiancΓ©. Ye Er was not embarrassed at all, and was very happy and refreshing.
"Sister! It's not haunted, it's scary! β
A few girls chatted and regarded entertaining guests as a side job. The neighbors who came today are all on good terms with the Zhou family. Aunts, aunts, and sisters-in-law came to help. No need to say hello at all.
The two aunts of the Li family came over at dawn to work in the kitchen, and the cousins also packed up their own work to do, not to mention that they didn't need to greet them, and the three little girls who were responsible for entertaining the guests became the most idle people.
Wang Liqin, the only one who always has to be thorny, also honestly eats melon seeds and eats melons and fruits, and he doesn't dare to say anything superfluous.
"Before coming, my father found my eldest brother and sister-in-law to confess, if my sister-in-law dares to say a word today, the chicks hatched at home will no longer have their share!" Ya'er looked at Wang Liqin and smiled evilly.
The eggs of the Li family's hatched chickens were all sent by Zhou Chen, and the hatched chickens had three eggs in two days. They are all double yolk eggs, and the Zhou family is also responsible for the acquisition. The supply and marketing cooperatives are two cents a penny, and the Zhou family charges a five-cent penny, and over the years, the Li family has relied on these chickens to live.
Wang Liqin is not stingy, and she doesn't dare to get along with money, and she treats her honestly better than anyone else.
The whole family is busy in an orderly manner, and the most troublesome is Xiao Wang. It has been educated a long time ago, and it is not allowed to care about anything these days, and it is honest to stay.
Xiao Wang walked from the front of the house to the back of the house, and then turned back to the front of the house, very uncomfortable with the sudden extra people in the house, and besides, the group of little fart children were picking flowers! And one peed in the yard! The vegetable furrow behind the house was trampled on, and who was sitting on the swing in the yard?!
Xiao Wang was very worried, lying beside Zhou Wanwan and sighing, he didn't let it care about anything, its world was completely chaotic.
The sixth day of the new year is not a good day, after eating a sumptuous banquet at noon, the guests dispersed, and the close neighbors and relatives who came to help cleaned up and left, all waiting to come back tomorrow.
Zhou Yang held Old Man Li's arm and sent him out a long way, and handed a few lunch boxes in his hand to Li Qingxue next to him, "Grandpa, these are a few dishes made for my grandma alone, they are all what she likes to eat, you come early tomorrow, let my grandma come too." β
Old man Li patted Zhou Yang's hand, then looked back at Zhou Wanwan and Zhou Chen, who had been following them, and nodded with a smile, "On your big day, your grandmother and I will come early!" Don't worry, I'll let you come happily! β
The guests are gone, and the house is also cleaned up refreshingly, Zhou Chen asked Zhao Xiaosan'er to count things, look at today's consumption, estimate the amount to be used tomorrow, and quickly add if it is not enough, and then go to communicate with the chef, and then gather everyone to summarize today's work, find out the omissions and deficiencies, so as to deal with tomorrow's positive day.
Zhou Yang kept smiling and watching his younger brother commanding a room of people, according to what they had already said, he would be a worry-free groom with peace of mind, and he didn't have to worry about anything.
This is the best wedding gift given to him by his younger brothers and sisters, and Zhou Yang happily accepts it.
Zhou Chen has always been concise and clear in his speech and affairs, and he knows how to delegate power, and he is the best at grasping the big and letting go of the small, a seemingly complicated and trivial situation, he straightened it out before he arrived in ten minutes.
Then let a few people in charge of the general direction go to discuss with their own people, he listened while drinking water next to him, and felt that someone's fault was too big, so he said a word or two, which was very leadership.
"It's such a waste for Xiao Er to go to the cultural center, he should go to the organization department." Shen Guodong muttered to Dunzi.
"He's so smart, he can do it anywhere." Dunzi has always believed in this.
Everything has been arranged, tomorrow's process has been carefully sorted out again, and the things to be used are also ready, and it is already evening.
"I took Xiao Wang to Peking University for a walk. It's depressed today. "Zhou Wanwan felt a little sorry for Xiao Wang, it was good-natured to let a few little fart children pull off several handfuls of hair today without making a sound, it should be rewarded.
"I'll go with you. You can't stop it. β
Shen Guodong didn't worry about what he would go to Peking University tonight. Since the last time she was lost in the Loop, he had never left her alone in any sparsely populated place.
Xiao Wang was able to go out to play, and he was accompanied by Zhou Wanwan, so happy that he immediately came to his senses, and jumped back into the house and held his little leather ball in his mouth, so happy that his eyes were crooked
Everyone was very surprised when they first found out that Xiao Wang could laugh, they had never seen a dog laugh when they were as happy as him, and rolled their eyes when they were unhappy. There will be depressed sighs and other expressions.
However, more than ten years have passed, and Xiao Wang's non-dog skills are no longer strange to everyone.
Peking University Bubble is still a paradise for children in Tunzi, with the unremitting efforts of Zhou Wanwan over the years. It really became what she envisioned back then.
There are weeping willows brushing the water on the shore, aspen in the distance is tall and strong, elm money, hairy roots and wild vegetables are eaten in spring, and wild flowers are everywhere in summer. In autumn, maple leaves and hawthorn trees adorn the shore. Of course. The fish in the big bubble can be caught all year round.
Here are the three best memories of Zhou Wanwan's brothers and sisters, Zhou Yang's old hen protects Zhou Wanwan, who has just learned to walk, to explore on the shore, Zhou Chen takes his soldiers to catch fish in the bubble, and those slightly sweet and green hairy roots.
"Zhou Xiaoer has been very good at directing people since he was a child." Zhou Wanwan told Shen Guodong about the first time they grilled fish here.
Shen Guodong listened with a smile and didn't interject much, he was a little silent today, not the same as usual.
However, no one can always be in a state, and there is no need to get to the bottom of it if you don't want to talk once in a while. Zhou Wanwan saw that Shen Guodong didn't have much to talk about. I accompanied him to watch the sparkling water surface under the sunset for a while, and then accompanied Xiao Wang to run two steps on the shore.
The sun set, after the last playful child was called home by his mother, Zhou Wanwan also planned to take Xiao Wang home, and he would be busy for a day tomorrow.
Shen Guodong took Xiao Wang's ball and threw it hard, sending Xiao Wang away.
They walked home along the path in the windbreak behind Tunzi, with Zhou's house at the back of the street and the windbreak in the back garden.
Although he might be bitten by mosquitoes when he went back like this, Shen Guodong rarely insisted on it, and Zhou Wanwan still didn't say anything and followed him back.
"Wait, wait, Yoko is married, and we're also engaged, right?" Shen Guodong was silent for a long time before he tentatively asked Zhou Wanwan.
After the sun set, the light on the forest path was dim, and Zhou Wanwan couldn't see the expression on Shen Guodong's face clearly, but felt that his gaze was extremely scorching.
Zhou Wanwan's face was expressionless, she lowered her eyelashes and was silent for a while, and finally nodded slightly, "Okay, let's get engaged." β
She wanted to try to smile at Shen Guodong, but she didn't succeed, but fortunately, the light was unclear, and Shen Guodong couldn't see clearly.
Shen Guodong took a step forward and shook Zhou Wanwan's hand tightly, his snow-white teeth shining in the dark woods, "When Yangzi and them come back, let grandpa come over to propose, okay?" β
Zhou Yang and Shi Yun went on a wedding trip the day after tomorrow, and it is estimated that they will be able to come back in more than half a month.
Zhou Wanwan nodded, "Let's talk about it in a month, don't disturb the eldest brother's new marriage." β
"Okay, then let Grandpa come over on September 2nd." Shen Guodong didn't want to wait for a day.
"Don't delay Grandpa Shen's business, you are not allowed to rush him, and I will tell him when he comes back from the military region. We are in no hurry. β
The year 1976 was a year full of great changes, both for the country and for the small family of the Zhou brothers and sisters.
In October of that year, the Gang of Four was defeated, and the catastrophe of the ten-year Red Revolution finally came to an end. Grandpa Shen suddenly returned to the military region urgently some time ago, and he didn't come back for more than half a month, which was a situation that had never happened before.
The country is in a tense stage before a huge change, and at this time, ordinary people like them don't feel anything, but Grandpa Shen, who is at the center of the power struggle, must be surrounded by treachery, and Zhou Wanwan doesn't want to distract him now.
"Who says we're not in a hurry? I'm dying! Shen Guodong wanted to hug Zhou Wanwan, but he was afraid that she would be embarrassed outside, so he could only rub her head, "Our business is grandpa's business, he must come over immediately if he knows it!" β
Zhou Wanwan nodded, but still didn't let him disturb Grandpa Shen. "When Grandpa Shen comes back, let's go and talk to him together."
Shen Guodong liked this proposal very much, and no longer tossed about telling Grandpa Shen immediately, and began to think about how to live with Zhou Wan in the two-person world. "The day after tomorrow, let's go back to our house and celebrate our engagement, okay? Just the two of us. β
The latter sentence was uncontrollably low and hoarse, he and Zhou Wanwan have been together less and more in the past two years, and they are with everyone during the holidays, and there is almost no time alone.
He didn't dare to create opportunities for himself, Zhou Wanwan was still an ignorant little girl, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself and scare her.
In the past, he always hoped that their little girl would grow up to be sixteen years old. is the age of the person you can talk about, so he doesn't have to suppress his feelings and actions so hard. But when she really reached the age of sixteen, he still thought she was too young. Delicate and innocent, she couldn't withstand his enthusiasm at all.
Maybe when she grows up a little more, when she reaches eighteen, she will be fine. Shen Guodong sighed in his heart and sentenced himself to another fixed-term prison.
Zhou Wanwan is the child he raised little by little in the palm of his hand. Even now emotionally treat her as a lover. She is still the pampered child in his heart who can't stand the slightest grievance, and he loves and cherishes her more than anyone else.
So even if he went home, there were only the two of them, Shen Guodong didn't plan to do anything, he just hoped to stay at home with Zhou Wanwan for a few days, just the two of them, just this one, it was enough for him to be happy.
As long as it's something that only the two of them do together. Even if it's just sitting on a crowded and bumpy coach for an hour, he feels happy and satisfied.
Proposal to Shen Guodong. Zhou Wanwan lowered her eyes and nodded, "Brother Dunzi is back to the army on the fourth, and we will go home when he leaves." β
"Well, let's go home!" Shen Guodong looked at Zhou Wanwan and smiled very satisfied.
Their maid is so intimate and close to him! Words can always reach his heart at once, she knows better than anyone else if she is good to her, such a lovely child, who can not be doubly good to her!
The two walked to the pile of stones outside the garden behind Zhou's house, and Shen Guodong took advantage of the darkness to pull Zhou Wanwan to hide in the pile of tall stones to hide his figure, "Today is a special day, we have to have a ceremony!" β
Zhou Wanwan was tightly held in his arms, a little anxious, "Brother Shen, let's go back quickly, can we make up for it in two days?" β
"Okay, don't worry, I didn't say what to do. Don't be afraid. Shen Guodong and Zhou Wanwan put their foreheads on their foreheads and discussed with her in a low voice, "You kiss me, and we will go back." But let you go today, and you will be charged interest when you go home, you can think about it. β
Zhou Wanwan nodded hurriedly, this is not a small closed courtyard of their house, and someone may pass by at any time.
Shen Guodong let go of his arm a little and motioned for her to kiss herself, and as soon as Zhou Wanwan looked up, he also looked up, and she couldn't reach him at all.
"Little fool!" Shen Guodong smiled evilly at Zhou Wanwan, "You hold me, or you beg me, I can hold you." β
Zhou Wanwan gritted her teeth and reached out to hug his neck, but he refused to cooperate, still not letting her reach him.
"Brother Shen, you hold me." Zhou Wanwan could only beg him in a low voice.
Shen Guodong was stimulated by her delicate soft and nervous tone with a little trill, and his hot arms tightly wrapped around Zhou Wanwan's slender and soft waist, but he refused to pick her up.
Zhou Wanwan was so angry that she wanted to give this hooligan a kick, but she didn't dare to provoke him at this time, so she could only follow his wishes, and then begged him in a low voice, "Brother Shen, you pick me up, I can't reach you." β
Shen Guodong's breath sprayed hot on Zhou Wanwan's face, and his arms wrapped around Zhou Wanwan's waist like steel bars, getting tighter and tighter, and slowly hugged her.
Zhou Wanwan didn't dare to look directly at his hot gaze, and lowered her eyes and went over to kiss his face, but at the moment when she was about to kiss, he suddenly turned his head and kissed him fiercely.
After a while, Zhou Wanwan walked in front angrily, and said coldly to Shen Guodong, who was going to pull her behind, "Hooligans, stay away from me!" β
Shen Guodong touched his nose and didn't dare to provoke the little milk cat who lost his temper, and followed her home step by step.
Zhou Wanwan opened the door of the back garden and lost her temper in a low voice to Shen Guodong, who was following her, "Don't follow me!" Rogue! β
Shen Guodong grinned and watched Zhou Wanwan enter the house through the back door, and he was accidentally bullied so badly that the little guy was going to measure his claws and scratch people!
Zhou Wanwan drank half a glass of water in the kitchen, adjusted his breathing, and carefully checked himself before entering the house.
"What about Shen Guodong? What about the pier? Zhou Chen took a string of fallen latte flowers and a few happy words to look for people everywhere, "Why are they gone?" Nan, go and call Shen Guodong back to work. β
Zhou Wanwan could only go back to the back to find Shen Guodong.
As soon as he walked out of the back garden, Zhou Wanwan was almost stunned.
Dunzi and Shen Guodong confronted each other in silence, both sides tensed their bodies, as if they might pounce on each other at any time and fight fiercely.
"Brother Shen, Brother Dunzi, you ......"
"Go back to the house!"
"Go back to the house!"
The two turned to her in unison and yelled at her. (To be continued......)
