Even the old man talked for a long time, and Lian Shouxin listened a little as if he didn't understand. He looked left and right at his pair of children, and saw that Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi were both big and shiny eyes, so he settled down and nodded in agreement to what Old Man Lian said.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't understand well, both children are smarter than him, so they must have understood. Looking at the expressions of the two children, even what the old man said should not be a bad thing that cannot be agreed. When he gets home later, he can just ask the two children.

"Dad, don't worry, I know." Lian Shouxin said to Old Man Lian.

"That's good." Old Man Lian's gaze swept over the faces of the three of them, and there were some things he couldn't say too clearly. However, for the understanding of the fourth son Lian Shouxin, he knows that Lian Shouxin is a sincere person, and he is enthusiastic and soft-hearted. Even if he is now a seven-grade official, he does not have the slightest shelf in dealing with people.

This is very good, but when dealing with some villains who are cunning in their hearts and smeared with oil on their mouths, they will inevitably suffer

Even the old man has been kind to people everywhere in his life, but he only hates such people.

After a conversation, the old man asked about Lian Man'er again. He asked Gorou first, and then asked Xiao Qi.

"When does Xiao Qi plan to take the children's exam?" Even the old man asked with Yan Yue sèrely.

Old man Lian said these words, and Lian Man'er listened quietly beside him, did he look at Old Man Lian's face. Even the old man seems to be a little abnormal today. Of course, this so-called abnormality is compared with Old Man Lian's words and deeds in the past. And this abnormality is actually the most normal manifestation of ordinary people being fathers and grandfathers.

Even the old man really cared about them. Is it finally open to you? Finally touched? Or maybe it's because I'm finally feeling older and some mindset has changed?

Or is it something else? Does it have anything to do with the arrival of Shang Huaide and Xiao Zhou's family?

"It's not decided yet. When I went to Fucheng, I asked Mr. Chu to take the school and ask him to take the school. I have to ask Mr. Lu again what he means. Regarding Old Man Lian's question, Lian Shouxin replied truthfully.

"Okay." Even the old man nodded and sighed, "You have met a nobleman, and you have a nobleman to help you." It's fate, it's luck. There are people. In a lifetime, several lifetimes, I can't cultivate this blessing! …… When is the time? Don't forget the good of others. ”

"Hmm." Even the old man nodded.

“…… Although Man'er is still young, she is not in a hurry to go out. But you have to plan early, and when you meet a good one, you can quickly settle down. The girl's family for a lifetime. It's such a big deal. The other party's family needs to inquire clearly. The child's character is the most important ......" even the old man actually talked about Lian Man'er's marriage again.

In any case, even the old man said good words, and even Shouxin listened patiently, nodding his head from time to time.

At this time, Zhou picked the curtain and walked in from the outside. Zhou was followed by Jiang, who was holding a vegetable pier in his hand, on which there were two kitchen knives and some half-chopped cabbage filling.

If there was no one next to Zhou, he took off his shoes and went to the kang. While asking Jiang to put the vegetable pier on the edge of the kang, Jiang turned around and went out again. came in with cabbage and a big pot filled with cabbage, and the big girl also followed Jiang in, and also held a cabbage in her arms.

Zhou sat on the kang, Jiang stood under the edge of the kang, and chopped up the vegetable filling on the spot.

Even the old man had to raise his voice to speak, so that they wouldn't hear it clearly.

The corners of Lian Man'er's mouth twitched, she heard Zhang's say that since she entered the door, she found that Zhou's loved to sit on the kang and work. And it's not what Lian Man'er thought at the beginning, Zhou's became like this because of his age.

Zhou is small-footed, naturally tired after standing for a long time, and now counting nine cold days, the outhouse is going to freeze at night, you can imagine how cold it is. It's like sitting on a hot kang in a warm house.

Of course, it is Zhou's privilege to work on the kang in the Lian family. If you are someone else, no matter how tired you are in the outhouse, or how cold you are, you have to stand up in the outhouse. Once, when he was also cooking, He asked to go into the back room to pick up vegetables and vegetables, and was scolded by Zhou for being a bloody dog.

Zhou sat on the kang and worked by herself, that is, she was uprooted and served the family. It is she who is diligent, capable, and hard working. If the daughters-in-law do this, they are lazy, sloppy, they can't eat enough, and they can't do anything.

Old Man Lian was talking to Lian Shouxin here, and Zhou and Jiang had already chopped a large pot of vegetable filling. Zhou's spleen is not good, but there is one thing to say fairly, that is, Zhou's person is indeed capable. Just look at her chopping vegetable stuffing, her arms are very powerful, no worse than the young Jiang Shi.

Lian Man'er had been listening to Old Man Lian and Lian Shouxin talking, and suddenly Xiao Qi gently tugged at her sleeve.

Lian Man'er glanced at Xiao Qi in a little surprise, Xiao Qi leaned over his little head, attached it to Lian Man'er's ear, and said two words in a low voice.

"Sister, we've looked at you a few times just now."

Lian Man'er listened, and subconsciously looked at Zhou. Coincidentally, I happened to meet Zhou Shi who was also looking at her. I have to say that Zhou and Xiao Zhou are really similar, and their eyes are equally sharp when they look at her.

Zhou saw that Lian Man'er was also looking at her, so he looked away carelessly, and snorted in his nose.

"Chop the stuffing first, and you go and bring the meat." Zhou put down the kitchen knife and instructed Jiang.

Jiang Shi agreed, and brought out a pot full of vegetable filling, and then came in from the outhouse, and in the basin was a piece of rib meat.

Zhou was still sitting on the kang, took out the meat from the basin, and began to cut it carefully. Like this kind of meat cutting work, Zhou has never let others do it, and she has to do it herself.

Lian Shouxin talked to Old Man Lian again, and seeing that the hour was not early, he got up and said goodbye. Even the old man was still a little reluctant, and he kept it until Lian Shouxin said that he had something to do.

"Dad, it's cold outside, don't go to the ground." Seeing that the old man Lian was about to put on his shoes and go to the ground to see them off, Lian Shouxin hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Okay, then I won't send you. Boss, you send it for me. Even the old man was not reluctant, so he greeted Lian Shourendao.

In the end, it was Lian Shouren, and the Jiang family took the big girl to send the three of Lian Shouxin out of the gate.

Back at home, Zhang was a little surprised that they had been in the old mansion for so long.

"Why have you been here for a long time?" Zhang asked.

“…… The third aunt and the third aunt of Xianghetun and the third aunt's family are here......" Lian Shouxin told the Zhang family that Shang Huaide and Xiao Zhou's family planned to move to Thirty Miles of Camp to settle down.

"Oh." Zhang put down the work in his hand and asked carefully.

“…… It's like me, and I think the temper is similar. "Lian Man'er told Zhang's Dao, and said that Shang Baorong is beautiful and dressed well, and Shang Baogen looks neither like his father nor his mother." It's all pretty cute. ”

"Temper is not like your aunt nǎi, like you nǎi?" Zhang asked.

"Well, looking at the two of them, they can talk together." Lian Man'er said. She told Zhang a lot of things, but she just hid the fact that Xiao Zhou's eyes were not good at her.

After all, it was the first time they met, and there was a lot of difference in generations, perhaps, Xiao Zhou's view of people is like that. However, Xiao Zhou's look at his daughter and son are not like that.

Despite this, Lian Man'er still didn't say anything, and she didn't plan to make any extraneous things until the matter was clarified.

"My grandfather's family made dumplings tonight, and my grandfather left us to eat together." Xiao Qi told Zhang.

"If you want to eat dumplings, my mother will wrap them for you in a while." Zhang said.

Xiao Qi smiled.

"This New Year, you haven't eaten enough of what is delicious, and now you want to eat dumplings, I don't believe it." Lian Man'er pinched Xiao Qi's chubby face and said with a smile.

Xiao Qi still grinned.

Lian Man'er described to Zhang's how Zhou took Jiang's to prepare dumplings one by one, Zhang's laughed when he heard it, and Lian Shouxin twitched the corner of his eye next to him, quite helpless. For the kind of detail that Lian Man'er said, Lian Shouxin naturally didn't notice it.

"You nǎi is that temper, and it seems that it hasn't changed yet." After Zhang smiled, he said.

"I don't think she can change in her life." Lian Man'er is determined to be authentic.

"Hey, it's not easy for my step-grandfather's daughter-in-law every day." Zhang said again.

"Mother, people are much stronger than you and my third aunt before." Lian Man'er said, at least, he had never heard the Zhou family scold the Jiang family in person.

Lian Man'er said this, and Zhang stopped talking.

"Mother, I'm chopping stuffing while glaring at my sister." Xiao Qi complained to Zhang.

"Man'er, what did you say, what did she stare at you?" Zhang was nervous when he was busy.

"I didn't say anything." Lian Man'er said, "Mother, it's not a day or two that she doesn't look down on me, if she doesn't stare at me and look at me and smile, it will be strange." ”

"That's right." Zhang said.

"This time, though, I guess she's angry." Lian Man'er thought about it, and then said, "In the old mansion before, I was also used to working. Now that I'm in front of her, she and my sister-in-law are chopping vegetable stuffing, and I don't even go to help, she must be unhappy. ”

At that time, Lian Man'er didn't understand what Zhou meant, and she didn't know what to do, she just didn't want to do that. In this life, she will not do this matter of currying favor with the Zhou family. Zhou's anger made her angry, who made her accustomed to thinking, and still stayed in place, thinking that this family was the one she could handle and call.

At dinnertime, Gorou finally returned. Because I go to the banquet every day in the New Year, most of the food is greasy, so even Man'er's home-cooked meals are deliberately made with light dishes.

As soon as the family sat down at the dinner table, the girl Xiaoxi came in from outside, saying that the old mansion had sent something.

…

One more is sent, ask for pink, and strive for two more later. (To be continued.) )
