Chapter 554: Reunion (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
In Sister Fang's memory, his uncle has been in charge of foreign office since she was a teenager, and it should have been more than ten years to this day.
That is, every few years in the New Year's Festival, I went back to my house to stay with my parents for ten days and a half months, and the family gathered less and left more, and it is estimated that the grandmother is the most worried about her son.
Therefore, in Washington, the return of the Hua family to Beijing is a major event.
The married aunts and grandmothers in the capital were all taken back to their parents' homes by Mrs. Hua. Sister Fang understands the joy of the old grandmother. Uncle was finally able to accept Huan's knees.
Chi Erlang privately discussed, this has to be stationed in his mother's house, and now he has specially sent someone to pick it up, and he doesn't know if it is such a custom in Shangshu Mansion, or if his wife is too homesick.
However, in terms of behavior, this shameless nature is to take the child and work together as a family. Chi Erlang said that the uncle's return is a big deal, and he should naturally make a difference.
Such a virtuous granddaughter and son-in-law are also the most enthusiastic in Washington, compared to the husbands of Sanniang and Wuniang, who just sent their wives back to their parents' homes in person, and they did a little worse.
The fifth brother-in-law of the Liu family didn't care very much, and when he was in front of the fourth brother-in-law, he gave people a lot of food boards, and he got used to it.
Feng Jiadalang was not so good in his heart. This fourth brother-in-law really doesn't know how to behave, and it's nothing if you want to accompany your wife back to your parents' house, but should you at least say hello to their brothers-in-law. Why trample them down?
Chi Erlang went down to his wife's maiden house with Lord Taishan, and the harmony between the two weng and son-in-law walked.
Hua Laoshangshu, who let the saints talk more in the small study in the back, looked dull in the back. Sincerely disgust him in front. Anyway, if the three of them go together, will his old man embarrass them, bah, he shouldn't smoke with his son.
When he arrived in Washington, he saw that the two brothers-in-law were there, and Chi Erlang was quite surprised.
Liu Jiulang's fifth brother-in-law just smiled shyly: "Fourth brother-in-law." β
The third brother-in-law of the Feng family: "You can't let the fourth brother-in-law be beautiful." β
Although it is more joking to say. But there is no resentment in it.
Chi Erlang said in his heart that it is not your own business, what does it matter to me: 'Hehe, the third brother-in-law laughed. β
Originally, it was nothing to say these things between the brothers-in-law, but there was an old man who guarded the calf next to the fourth brother-in-law, and the second master Hua must not be very pleasing to his uncle, but it was also his own uncle. Sister Fang's husband. He can look down on it, and others can't run on it: "Why does the third aunt have time to accompany Sanniang back home." Didn't you say that the yamen was busy inside? "That's a sincere run.
This third aunt finally saw the deep love of the legendary Chinese waiter. It turned out to be so big. They all love the house and the black.
Who to reason with, who let himself not have an unreasonable father-in-law.
Feng Dalang didn't dare to snub the second uncle: "Business can't be done, such a big thing for the Yue family." The niece and son-in-law naturally have to accompany Sanniang. Besides, the niece and son-in-law miss the uncle very much. Anterior. It's the niece-in-law who is not thoughtful. β
Second Master Hua just picked his eyelids: "Well, I think very much, we are all old. I look forward to my children walking around me more, and learning more from your fourth brother-in-law in the future. After all, he's much older than you. β
Then they swaggered away with their uncle.
Chi Erlang was not very happy, it turned out that in the eyes of his own Taishan, he disliked his age. This is not a compliment.
Feng Dalang was also not happy, this fourth brother-in-law was indeed a little older than the fourth sister, but he seemed to be the same year as Feng Dalang. This second uncle, don't be too partial. I was so aggrieved that I died, can I go to sue my father-in-law, but I hate that my father-in-law is not in Washington, so I went all the way to pick up people outside the city gate.
Feng Dalang said in his heart that it was all bloodline from Washington, and he thought that Taishan from home should also have such a character. I'll protect him.
Chi Erlang said in his heart that Feng Dalang, the third brother-in-law, is not big-eyed. I don't want to think about what he does by himself, that is, Liu Jiulang is not like him.
In the evening, Mrs. Hua looked at the four granddaughters and sons-in-law, what is really rare, and said that among these grandsons-in-law, Erlang is the most intimate, look at how good this leader is.
I am not very satisfied with the third aunt, the eldest and second are not in the capital, and this leading role should have been done by him.
Well, the third aunt finally understood that even if she came, she would have prepared a food board for her fourth brother-in-law. Didn't you see the old grandmother's look of satisfaction when she looked at her fourth brother-in-law?
When I saw the fourth brother-in-law arrive, I really had a feeling of powerlessness.
At the dinner table, the ladies were all family, and there was harmony everywhere.
The atmosphere was a little more subtle for the men outside.
Chi Erlang carefully waited for his father-in-law, and his brother-in-law was not there, so he had to be more careful. This father-in-law is still good, at least he knows how to protect him. glanced at Feng Dalang, and the dishes arranged for his father-in-law became more intimate.
Hua Lao Shangshu had a face, and he was really not very happy. It's really unpleasant to look at these two people: "Hmph." β
The second master of Hua looked up like his own father after realizing it, and he was annoyed by his granddaughter and son-in-law.
Hua Lao Shangshu was almost angry by his son's innocent eyes: "Second child, since you have Golang, you have been slacking off in this temperament," and knocked on the cup after speaking.
This action is definitely not in line with the rules of eating. But Hua Lao Shangshu just did it.
The second master Hua said in his heart that what happened to his father, the mother-in-law in the female dependents didn't need his daughter-in-law to make rules, why did the old man have to set rules for him, just eat your own food. Haven't you been here for years?
Chi Erlang's face is big, he must relieve Lao Taishan, and he went to Hua Lao Shangshu with a smile: "It's all the grandson-in-law, Gorou is not there, naturally the grandson-in-law is here to be filial to his grandfather." After speaking, he poured wine for the old Russian book.
Liu Jiajiulang followed behind the fourth brother-in-law, without saying a word, just doing things, and following Chi Erlang, picking the food that Lao Shangshu could restrain and give the vegetables.
Feng Dalang sighed again on the side, it turned out that they had to fight thick-skinned in the arms. I am really not as good as my fourth brother-in-law. This is what the competition for favor looks like.
Hua Lao Shangshu snorted coldly again, and Hua Er Lao: "Dad." It's rare for a few of their brothers-in-law to get together and have a good raw meal. My uncle is a petite. β
Lao Shangshu's face, why didn't you say that just now, I enjoyed it a lot, but Lao Shangshu is not an unlucky son, he can't make a mistake, and he is angry: "Okay, it's right for your brother-in-law to get together, what your second uncle said is right." β
Daddy gave face, and the second master Hua gave his dad a dish: "The third brother took Erlang and a few of them to pick up the eldest brother, and when it comes to tomorrow, our house will be lively." β
Hua Lao Shangshu snorted coldly again: "You also know that your third brother took the children to pick up people." β
Second Master Hua heard that his father was dissatisfied. said very humbly: "If it weren't for my son, I would go to court." Can't leave. The son will definitely go to pick up the eldest brother too. β
Hua Lao Shangshu's beard is trembling, Feng Dalang and Liu Jiulang may not understand why Lao Shangshu's beard is windless and automatic, but Chi Erlang understands in his heart that it is better not to say what his father-in-law said.
The two of them have only been back in Beijing for less than three months. What a battle my father-in-law had at the beginning. Ask for leave to pick up my daughter thirty miles away from the capital. The rumors have not subsided yet, and now that the uncle has returned to Beijing, the old man said that he would not have time to go to the court. Isn't this a sincere attempt to block my grandfather? It's okay if there's no comparison, and it's no wonder that Lao Shangshu is so angry with it.
Chi Erlang: "Recently, the atmosphere in the court has been tense, otherwise the grandson-in-law will go to the suburbs with the third uncle to welcome the uncle back to Beijing." β
Second Master Hua is not a good mallet, he glanced at his uncle, and didn't ask the court in person why he was nervous.
looked at his father's face, and said: "What Erlang said is that Sister Fang has not been taken care of by your aunt in previous years, and even my uncle has not let my sister-in-law worry about it, just remember this feeling." Be filial to your uncle and aunt. β
and then peeked at his old father, which means that he really respects his brother and sister-in-law, and he really takes it to heart, and he remembers his feelings.
Hua Lao Shangshu can't eat any more food, he can't wait to be annoyed, the brotherly relationship between the sons is really good, and what the second brother said is also sincere, but he is clearly telling you, compared with his daughter, the brother's relationship is almost bad, this does not need to be said, the things that the son did are there.
Lao Shangshu picked up the wine glass and drank silently, and the second master of Hua, as his son, followed him. Naturally, the juniors also drank along, but inexplicably.
I haven't heard of the gap between the big house and the second room. I will definitely be happy to ask my wife about it.
At this time, Chi Erlang felt the degree of affection for his children with his father-in-law, and he was afraid that in his father-in-law's heart, the brother family would be ranked behind, and his wife was really a good blessing, meeting a good father, and a good husband himself.
Thinking about his own Jiaojiao, it seems quite normal to be a father to do this.
Chi Erlang has now found a way to balance his heart, that is, not to compete with his father-in-law for the position in his wife's heart, he and his father-in-law are bound to do better than his father-in-law how to spoil his daughter.
Chi Erlang quietly gave the second master Hua a dish: "This wine has a long stamina, I heard Siniang say that when you are half-smoked, the wild grass written is difficult to find in the world, and today the son-in-law and brother-in-law and brother-in-law are going to protect their eyes." β
Lao Shangshu was so disgusted that he had no taste for wine.
Master Hua's face was like a happy flower: "Sister Fang still has a little eyesight, and the wild grass when she is half-smoked has the most feeling, and she is almost unparalleled in the world." If Erlang likes it, go back and write a handwritten copy for you. β
Chi Erlang: "In this way, Erlang is not polite to his father-in-law, today's wine Erlang must be mastered well, and it is best to be half-smoked." β
Then smiled and picked up the small wine jug in the hand of the second master of Hua.
Hua Lao Shangshu gritted his teeth, the second child is not bad, he picked a sensible uncle, which can be regarded as filial piety, and he also knows how to persuade people to change the law, Lao Shangshu is really unhappy: "You are a little shameful." β
Feng Dalang also understood something, he was not pleasing to this second uncle, and he was courteous to Lao Shangshu: "The little son-in-law has long admired the calligraphy of his grandfather." β
After speaking, he raised his eyes shyly and glanced at Hua Lao Shangshu.
The old scholar is a good man, I haven't seen anything, this third aunt's tricks are a little worse. It's a little fake.
Is Chi Erlang a sycophant, people are trying to let the old man drink less. The eyesight is not good, and the brain is a little worse. It's not a little worse than Chi Erlang, it's better to look at Chi Erlang's eyes silently on the side. At least this one knows how to hide.
However, Lao Shang Shule stepped on the second child and Chi Erlang's grandson-in-law: "Dalang's taste is still good, go back to the study to see if you like it, and bring it back to the children, just say that my grandfather rewarded them." β
Feng Dalang was overjoyed, and then thanked him repeatedly.
Lao Shangshu also replied a few words decently, and raised his eyebrows in the middle to look at his second son.
Hua Er'an also said naΓ―ve.
Chi Erlang single-mindedly controls his father-in-law's big drinks. This person who drank too much must be his fault with his wife, not to mention such a father-in-law, he is really sincere when he is filial. I don't have any other ideas, I want to be better to this father-in-law.
Liu Jiulang said in his heart that these two brothers-in-law are human spirits, and he is really a little uncomfortable as a mortal here, but he still subconsciously follows Chi Erlang to act. It can be seen that the fourth brother-in-law is still more sophisticated.
After the banquet, Chi Erlang followed his father-in-law back to the second room.
Second Master Hua is half-smoked: "Your grandfather is getting older, and it is getting more and more difficult to coax, our brother's feelings have never been doubted, not in this little matter, and besides, your uncle's return to Beijing is not a big deal, how can you use such a big battle, if I delay the court because of this, how much criticism will be aroused." Why didn't your grandfather know how to think about it? β
Chi Erlang followed behind his father-in-law's adult, so I really don't know how to speak, it turns out that my father-in-law is quite normal. It's all right. But in combination with the matter of taking leave to pick up his daughter outside the city three months ago, this is really not convincing, why can't your old man think about it so thoroughly, compared to letting the old grandfather hear this, he has to drink two more glasses.
Second Master Hua was in a good mood: "It's rare that we are all in the house today, let people call Sister Fang and their mothers over, I haven't seen Sister Fang's calligraphy practice for a long time." β
Well, this one wants to have fun with the family.
In the study, Mrs. Hua Erfang stood on the left side of the second master with her arms in her arms, Sister Fang stood on the right side of the second master with her sister in her arms, and Chi Erlang stood in front of the desk with her own Jiaojiao.
The second master of Hua was half drunk and splashed ink with satisfaction. The words are really good, and they are heroic and unrestrained in their own style.
Looking at the battle around my father-in-law, it's no wonder that the font written by people is so casual and free, look at people's happiness. When his own Jiaojiao is older, he Chi Erlang will definitely let his wife flutter the paper, and his daughter will grind the ink, and enjoy the feelings of his father-in-law. Chi Erlang thought that he also had a good hand worthy of his wife and daughter. It's not too late to start practicing. (To be continued.) )
