The relationship between Yunzhu and the Feng family is no longer as close as before, although there is still a relationship with Xiangmei and the others. But she almost didn't go to the Feng family. Seeing peace from afar, he will still hide.

In this way, day after day, the boring and monotonous life is repeated every day. Yunzhu's mood gradually became indifferent, not sad or happy, and tried to live a good life.

In the blink of an eye, it is the winter solstice.

According to the custom, dumplings are to be made, and they have to be dumplings filled with mutton.

It happened that someone in the village slaughtered sheep, and Yunzhu also went to buy a few catties, rolled out the dough, and wrapped dumplings. In the past, no matter what she did, she would make more and give some to the Feng family, but now she has inadvertently wrapped a lot, Yunzhu looked at these dumplings like ears of wheat, but she was worried.

Tian Tian smiled: "Mother, otherwise let's save it, it won't be bad anyway." ”

"It's not bad, but there are so many ......"

Tian Tian knew his mother's thoughts, and said with a smile: "It's better for me to send it over for my mother." ”

Yunzhu remembered that when the two families were good in the past, they helped each other, and gave her a lot of help when she was in the most difficult time, and she still had to express it when she encountered festivals. After thinking about it, I found a basket, washed it, picked up the dumplings, and covered it with a layer of cleanly washed gauze.

Tian Tian was willing to run errands and delivered these dumplings to Feng's house.

Mrs. Feng was also making dumplings with Xiangmei, and suddenly when she saw these gifts, Mrs. Feng hurriedly got up and caught them: "Your mother is so polite every year." Our family also covers it. ”

Xiangmei smiled: "The mutton dumplings made by Sister Song don't taste so fishy, I like to eat them, and my brother likes them too." ”

Feng Lao Niang did not refuse Yunzhu's kindness. He generously accepted these dumplings, and grabbed a few handfuls of winter melon candy from the basket that Tian Tian was carrying.

Tian Tian likes it very much. Take the candy and take your leave.

Here, the mother and daughter of the Feng family are still rolling dumpling skins, and Xiangmei said, "I think it's almost enough." You don't have to pack that much. ”

"After so many noodles, there are fillings, what do you do if you don't wrap them up. Don't be playful, get it. ”

On a cold day, Xiangmei felt cold, and her fingers were completely frozen, like a carrot. Xiangmei thought that there were only three people in the family, and there was a lot of bread in front of her, and Sister Song sent these again. Where to finish eating.

And while he spoke, peace returned.

"Brother!" Xiangmei hurriedly greeted her.

"What about dumplings?"

"yes."

When he looked at it, he saw that there were some dumplings with a more beautiful appearance like ears of wheat in the dustpan next to him, and he recognized them at a glance as the masterpieces of Yunzhu. Because last year, Yunzhu sent such beautiful dumplings. Looking at these dumplings, Ping An imagined them as smiling faces, and even a little distracted.

"I heard that today's salary is settled, have you calculated it?" Mrs. Feng's words interrupted Ping'an's thoughts.

"It's not over yet. The rest of the part will not be available until the Chinese New Year. Ping An said dumbfoundedly.

"Go and rest, I'll call you when it's ready."

Ping An walked away.

He went back to his room and took off the blanket he was carrying, and took out several large strings of copper coins inside. The money is heavy. It's what he's earned for the past few months, and half of it won't be settled until the Chinese New Year.

He looked at it and took one of the large strings for his own use. The rest is planned to be left to the mother to supplement the family or save it.

Ping An rubbed these copper coins, which were old and new, and remembered the ears of wheat dumplings just now. She also sent dumplings over, does it mean that she is no longer hiding?

Wait until it's time to eat the dumplings. Ping An spoke: "Mother, I said that you should also retract your prejudices?" ”

Mrs. Feng pretended to be confused: "What prejudice?" ”

Ping An pointed to the dumplings in the bowl.

"I don't understand what you're talking about, is it because the dumplings are not good?"

Ping'an said: "My mother understands in her heart, I don't need to find out." Isn't it time for you to think again? ”

Feng Lao Niang said: "What is there to consider, if we can't climb it, we won't climb it." I have something to ask you, why do you want to tell your second aunt that, now the Liao family sees me as if they are avoiding the enemy. ”

Ping'an said: "If you can't be an in-law, you can be an enemy, and there seems to be nothing wrong with it." Don't try to convince me, I'm not a two- or three-year-old kid anymore. Next year, I plan to renovate the house and build two more tiled houses. ”

"Where did our family get that money?"

"Isn't there still a pig at home, and I have raised these chickens, and I have sold them, and I have saved some, so it's enough, right?"

"What are you going to do next?"

Ping An glanced at his mother, then at his sister, and said very calmly: "I'll go and ask the matchmaker to let Azhu pass through the door." ”

"Are you really going to do that?"

"Can't put it off any longer!" Ping An knew Yuan Muhua's thoughts, and now that he lived here again, he was afraid that he would rob Yunzhu by him if he was negligent, and it would be too late to regret it, so he had to strike first.

"You think I'm going to say yes?"

"Mother will agree sooner or later, you also agreed before, and then you changed your mind for a dream, isn't this statement ridiculous? Besides, my mother doesn't hate her, and my sister doesn't hate her, right? ”

Xiangmei immediately said: "I like Sister Song very much, and I also like Tian Tian." As soon as the words fell, it caused Feng Lao Niang to roll his eyes.

"As my mother said, I will be responsible for this family, so please follow my wishes."

"What nonsense!" Mrs. Feng put the chopsticks on the table with a snap, and didn't eat, so she walked to the back room.

Xiangmei glanced at her brother and secretly gave him a thumbs up.

"Brother, you're so good!"

Later, Xiangmei also went to persuade her mother: "Mother, I'm afraid you can't stop this matter, I think my brother is hard-hearted." If you persist like this, won't my brother be separated from you in the future? I think you'd better say yes. Sister Song is such a good woman, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to find a lantern. ”

Feng Lao Niang said: "Are you really not afraid of those gossiping girls in the village?" ”

"We live our lives, where do we care what others say? If it is developed in the future, what else can people pick out? ”

Feng Lao Niang glanced at Xiangmei, thinking to herself why her son and daughter are working against her, no, she has to plan this matter well, and then she said to Xiangmei: "Actually, I think more about the fear that your brother will be wronged in the face of those people in the Song family in the future, after all, it is not a good thing to have an unreasonable mother-in-law." ”

"Hey, why do you want to do so much, Yutang and Qingtang are only one word apart at first glance, but they are actually so far apart. and the Song family can come and go back and forth a few times a year. Why should my mother use this as an excuse? ”

Feng Lao Niang nodded Xiangmei's forehead a little angrily: "I don't know what benefits your brother promised you, so you can help him speak?" ”

Xiangmei smiled: "This is not for my brother to live a comfortable life for a few days in the future, my mother has always been an enlightened and considerate person, why should I deliberately embarrass my brother in this matter." (To be continued......)
