Chapter 103: New Year's Greetings

The first is to ask for pink. There will be a change in the evening.

……

Although Mrs. Ji refused to see Gu Xia'er, she did not see Uncle Gu. Uncle Gu came from time to time, mentioning Gu Xia'er in other words, and brought the needlework and thread to Mrs. Ji again and again for Gu Xia'er.

Gu Xia'er seems to be doing needlework in her days after marriage. Mrs. Ji has accumulated a lot of shoes and socks and clothes she made here.

In the dead of night, looking at these needles and threads made by Gu Xia'er, Mrs. Ji couldn't help but sigh.

Hearing that Gu Xia'er was here again, Mrs. Ji groaned and didn't speak.

Ji Xiaotang saw it on the side. In the past, Mrs. Ji would simply say that she couldn't see it. Now hesitating, I'm afraid I'm soft-hearted.

At this time, Uncle Gu didn't wait for anyone to report inside, so he came in from outside.

When Uncle Gu came in, he knelt down and kowtowed to Mrs. Ji.

"New Year's greetings to the eldest sister." Uncle Gu really kowtowed to Mrs. Ji three times, and then didn't get up, but said very emotionally, "Since there is no father, the eldest sister and eldest sister are like mothers." If it weren't for the eldest sister, our family wouldn't know which pit to rot in. Kowtowing to the eldest sister is like kowtowing to your father. ”

Old Mrs. Ji looked at Uncle Gu and sighed again.

"Hurry up and speak. You are also the eldest person, and you don't know a taboo when you talk for the New Year. Mrs. Ji said angrily to Uncle Gu.

Uncle Gu didn't get up, but slapped himself in the mouth.

"The lesson of the eldest sister is that I should be beaten in this mouth. …… I also begged the eldest sister for one thing, Xia'er and the couple were outside, the New Year, I wanted to come to kowtow to the eldest sister for the New Year, I was afraid that the eldest sister was not in good health, so I didn't dare to come in directly, so I came in first to ask the eldest sister. ”

"Eldest sister, there are thousands of mistakes, all of them are my fault. The eldest sister doesn't miss anything else, Xia'er grew up in front of the eldest sister since she was a child. Xia'er is filial to the eldest sister, and she is still ahead of us. …… Even if she had something, she wasn't bad-hearted. The eldest sister remembered that she was young, ......and she should be taught a lesson, after all, she is her own child. In this big year, people's eyes are watching, and the eldest sister keeps a face for Xia'er...... "Uncle Gu kowtows to Mrs. Ji again."

Old Mrs. Ji didn't speak, lowered her head and thought for a long time, then raised her head.

"Well, this is my iniquity. Let them all come in. Mrs. Ji said.

This time, without the old lady Ji calling up, Uncle Gu stood up happily. Uncle Gu wanted to go outside to take people in person, but Mrs. Ji naturally stopped him.

"Let the little girl go, you are also a person who wants to have a full house of children and grandchildren." Mrs. Ji blamed Uncle Gu for her anger.

Uncle Gu sat on the chair under Mrs. Ji's kang.

The little girl went out and quickly brought people in.

Walking in front were Jiang Shi, Gu Lei'er and Gu Xue'er, followed by Gu Xia'er and Jiang Xinglong. Jiang Xinglong was not good at walking, and was pushed in by a sturdy mother-in-law in a wheelchair.

When everyone entered the house, they all knelt down and kowtowed to Mrs. Ji to pay New Year's greetings.

"Get up." Old Lady Ji raised her hand and said.

The Jiang family, Gu Lei'er and Gu Xue'er all stood up, Jiang Xinglong couldn't kneel on the chair, but Gu Xia'er was still kneeling on the ground, hanging her head and kowtowing to Mrs. Ji.

"Go and help Grandma Jiang up." Old Mrs. Ji commanded.

The little girl stepped forward to help Gu Xia'er, but Gu Xia'er refused to get up.

"There's nothing to honor my aunt, so let me kowtow to my aunt a few more times." As he spoke, there was already a cry in his tone.

Old Mrs. Ji sighed again.

"Enough, enough. Xia'er, get up. ”

This sentence seemed to have turned on some switch, Gu Xia'er no longer kowtowed, but she cried out, and crawled to Mrs. Ji's kang on her knees, hugging Mrs. Ji's knees tightly.

"Aunt, aunt......" Gu Xia'er choked up, unable to say anything else for a long time.

It is the next year, Gu Xia'er is dressed very festive and rich, wearing a brand-new red makeup dress, and her head is full of pearls. As a daughter-in-law, Gu Xiaer still loves to dress up, her face is evenly powdered, and her eyebrows and eyes are more delicate than those depicted in the past. No matter who sees it, I'm afraid that I will praise the handsome new daughter-in-law.

It's just that this new daughter-in-law doesn't have any joy on her face, and she doesn't need to look carefully to see the sadness between her eyebrows.

Gu Xia'er's chin was pointed, and her whole person was thinner than before.

"Good boy, get up." Old Mrs. Ji looked at Gu Xia'er, her heart finally softened completely, and she stretched out her hand to pull Gu Xia'er. "In this new year, you are a new daughter-in-law, how can you cry no matter if you talk and laugh. Quickly put away the tears. ”

Gu Xia'er stood up with Mrs. Ji's hand, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

"My aunt is right, it's me who is not good, I don't cry. I'm happy, and I'm glad to see my aunt. Gu Xia'er seemed to be afraid of upsetting Mrs. Ji a little, so she immediately stopped her tears, and stood in front of Mrs. Ji cautiously, her eyes red.

"Just sit next to my aunt." Old Mrs. Ji said to Gu Xia'er.

"Yes." Gu Xia'er agreed, and slowly sat down beside Mrs. Ji. Every move reveals a lot of caution.

It turned out that Gu Xia'er was also very careful beside Mrs. Ji, but she could see that more than half of it was pretended. Today's caution is from the heart, revealing timidity and weakness.

Everyone will greet each other and sit down.

Uncle Gu had four gifts, and Jiang Xinglong and Gu Xia'er sent another generous gift on behalf of the Jiang family.

Mrs. Ji glanced at it, and let people accept it, and then took out a few purses and gave them to Gu Lei'er, Gu Xue'er, Jiang Xinglong and Gu Xia'er also had one each.

"You're newly married this year, and after next year, there will be no more yours." Old Mrs. Ji was already in a pretty good mood at this time, so she said to Gu Xia'er and Jiang Xinglong.

The rules for this New Year's money vary from place to place. Generally, only when the child celebrates the New Year, there is New Year's money to get, and the standard of the child may be different from family to family. And some families, such as the Ji family, but all the juniors who have not yet married are regarded as underage children, and they can get New Year's money.

Therefore, Gu Lei'er is not young, but she still takes New Year's money from Mrs. Ji every year. The Ji family is at home, and Master Ji San also has to press the New Year's money every year, and it doesn't matter if he gets it from Mrs. Ji, he still has to ask for a copy from Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji.

As for Jiang Xinglong and Gu Xia'er, they are not only old, but they have also become relatives. But this is the first year they have kowtowed to Mrs. Ji, and Mrs. Ji has also prepared a purse for them to celebrate the New Year.

Gu Lei'er and Gu Xue'er both happily stuffed their purses into their arms, and Gu Xia'er held the purse in her hand, more like she was holding some kind of treasure.

Ji Xiaotang got the same purse early in the morning, so he knew that there were four small silver bills in this purse.

Gu Lei'er and Gu Xue'er looked like they loved money, Gu Xia'er looked ......, Ji Xiaotang only glanced at it and turned his gaze away.

Gu Lei'er took the purse, and just as she heard Mrs. Ji say that she would not give Gu Xia'er New Year's money next year.

"I'm afraid that next year, my aunt will still not be able to save this New Year's money. My sister and brother-in-law's New Year's money is saved, but they will add a little nephew. When the time comes, I will call my aunt the ancestor, and my aunt will double her big purse. Ha ha. After Gu Lei'er finished speaking, she felt that her words were both auspicious and playful, and she laughed proudly twice.

There was a moment of silence in the room. Several of them changed their faces. Gu Xia'er's face was white first and then red, and her lips trembled.

Jiang Xinglong's face was gloomy.

Just when Gu Lei'er herself began to feel surprised, thinking about where she said the wrong thing, Uncle Gu was the first to react, so he echoed Gu Lei'er and said a word, and then snorted, and changed the topic a little bluntly.

“…… Again, don't do those raushs for me anymore. Burn your eyes, make your hands thick! You are not like when you were a girl at home now, and you don't have a mother-in-law, so there must be a lot of things going on at home. Old Mrs. Ji said to Gu Xia'er.

"Auntie don't worry about me. …… It's much more leisurely than when I was at home, just taking care of ......" Speaking of this, Gu Xia'er glanced at Jiang Xinglong quickly, "My father-in-law and eldest sister both love me, as long as I take care of my father-in-law, I don't want to interfere in family affairs." ”

Mrs. Ji sighed, knowing in her heart that Gu Xia'er was not in charge of the Jiang family. R1152
