Chapter 52 Go to Grandma's house to pay New Year's greetings
After everyone finished eating, several men sat in the yard to talk about spring farming, and the women also sat together and chatted, He was eating, sitting on the side and humming, Zhao next to him saw several people like this, his face was not very good-looking, but after all, it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and he didn't want to say more, just glanced at He and shook his head.
Zhao remembered the sausage at dinner today, and asked Huang, "The second child, what kind of sausage is the one you brought, it's excellent, how to make it, and when I have nothing to do, I'll make some myself to eat." ”
Huang smiled and said, "This sausage is mainly made of meat, and it is not an uncommon thing, but it is a lot of work to do, and it is very time-consuming. ”
Before Zhao could speak, He immediately said, "Yes, I also think it's delicious, second brother and sister, give me some too." ”
Huang was stunned for a moment, in fact, there is not much left at home, and the rest is to give gifts of favors, if you send it to Huang again, it must be so much reputation, and besides, I am just polite to say that it is not an uncommon thing.
But it is indeed a strange thing, it takes a few catties of meat to roast a catty of sausages, and his own family is reluctant to eat because he wants to keep it as a gift, and now He is coming to ask for it, and he doesn't know how to refuse, and he doesn't know how to answer for a while.
Lin Chen here suddenly said, "Auntie, you like to eat, why don't you buy some meat and let my sister make it, I like it too." But my sister said that this thing was time-consuming and costly, and she didn't want us to eat more. ”
Lin He looked at Lin Chen with appreciation, and he didn't know that this little girl was talking so powerfully, and looked at Lin Chen, the little girl's eyes were full of childishness, presumably the child was telling the truth.
Here, He's face was scornful, originally he wanted to take advantage of it, although everyone knew this truth, but after all, they were all relatives, and everyone was reluctant to tell the story, and it was a little embarrassing to be told by a child, but he still opened his mouth and said, "I'm also talking about it casually, forget it if you don't have it." ”
Lin He was a little amused when he saw He's embarrassed appearance, thinking that people like He were actually going to deal with her in this way, and there was no need to save face for some superb people.
Zhao listened to what Chen'er said and said, "Did He'er do it?" ”
Huang's face was full of smiles, and he said in a proud but strange tone in his tone, "Yes, this girl in our family always has some strange ideas, no, after reading a book for a few days, she said that she saw other people's sausages in the book, and she had to pester me and her father to help her make it, and she really let her make it, and it tasted good." ”
Zhao listened and pulled Lin He in front of him, this granddaughter had never seen it well before, and now it seems that at a young age, she can already see that she is a beautiful embryo, with willow eyebrows, melon seed face, with a beautiful dress on her body, when the adults speak, they don't interject, they sit quietly on the side, and look at the temperament is not like that of an ordinary farmer, like a young lady from a big family.
Immediately laughed and said, "Huang, you gave birth to a good daughter." ”
Every mother is very happy to hear someone praise her children, and Huang is no exception, although she says "It's just an elf and a weird girl", her face is full of smiles.
When Yu'er heard that her grandmother was in front of so many people, she just praised Lin He alone, her face was a little unconvinced, and her eyes looked at Lin He with a look of jealousy.
He also glanced at Lin He, thinking about what a good daughter is, but she is just a country girl, she has never seen the world, how can she compare to our family's Yu'er, but she is also smiling with everyone on her face.
Everyone chatted for a while, and they all went home, and the next day they all had to go to the woman's mother's house to pay New Year's greetings, and everyone had to go back to prepare some things and bring them back the next day.
When everyone was about to go back, He suddenly said, "Mother, didn't you say that you want to pack some things for us to take back, where is it, I'll clean it up myself." ”
Zhao listened, his face was a little ugly, when he started to say it, he just said casually, the more things that everyone has for the New Year, the better, how can there really be something that can't be eaten, but He said this, and it was not easy to regret it, so he casually packed up some white noodles and bacon for He.
When the Huang family and the Zhou family were packing up the things, they came over to say hello, saying that they had these things at home, so they wouldn't take them, and the Zhao family didn't say much and let them go back.
Zhao also instructed them for a while when they went home, saying that they should go to their parents' house and come back early, and it would be best to come back for lunch, because they were going to pick up their two younger sisters and their families back to their parents' house.
Lin He came here to know that many of the customs here are different from her previous life, for example, if the daughter here goes back to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the Lunar New Year, she needs her brother or father to pick her up, which is called kissing.
If there is no one in your own family to pick up, then the married daughter will be despised in her mother-in-law's family, which means that this daughter-in-law is not valued in her mother's family or that there is no one in her mother's family, and no one will come to pick her up.
Huang returned home and prepared the same thing as going to Zhao's house, Erniu said to bring more things, not often, Huang thought about it, and didn't bring more things, when the time came to be known by his mother-in-law is not good, Erniu ignored Huang's opposition or took a few more snacks and a piece of cloth to bring over, saying that the children of the brother-in-law's family over there always have to bring more things.
By the next morning, the whole family had already gotten up, had breakfast, and were waiting in the courtyard. Waiting for his uncle to pick them up, after waiting for a while, Huang Dashan brought Lin He's brother-in-law over, Lin He saw his brother-in-law for the second time, and he saw it once when the family built a house, but because he was too busy, he just took a look, and he didn't even have time to say a word.
Lin He's little uncle is called Huang Hu, and his nickname is Huzi, he is really like a little tiger, he tosses so much, he saw his eldest brother in the morning and said that he was going to his eldest sister's house to pick up his relatives, so he had to follow. Huang Dashan had no choice but to bring him.
Huzi saw that several children in his eldest sister's family just called uncle, and he was a little unhappy, so he walked up to Lin He and said, "I'm uncle, why don't you call me." ”
Lin He was a little amused when he saw Huzi's cuteness, and still called out, "Little uncle." Huzi nodded with satisfaction.
Huang pulled Huzi in front of him and said, "Huzi, you have grown taller again, and you are still as naughty as before." ”
Huzi was very obedient in front of his sister, but said, "Eldest sister, let's go home quickly, my father and mother nagged yesterday and said, you go back today, you have to come to pick you up early, it's all because the eldest brother is grinding hard, and he arrived so late." After speaking, he glanced at his eldest brother.
Huang Dashan looked at his younger brother with some amusement, and he didn't know who was halfway away, sitting on the ground and refusing to go, stunned to ask him to carry more than half of the road, and now he said that he was grinding.
Huang Dashan glared at Huzi and said, "Sister, hurry up, let's go quickly, it's going to be too late when we get home, and my father and mother are going to complain again." ”
