Chapter 43: The Guest
The house became lively all at once: the adults sat in the hall and chatted, the juniors played poker, the small ones played slapstick, and for a while, the chickens and dogs jumped in the house.
Because of the large number of people, three tables were set up during the meal: one table for adults, one table for the three sisters and brothers of Yu Panpan and the children of the Yu He family, one table for the children of the Yu Daming family and one table for the children of the Yu Gui family, exactly eight people per table.
The meal is very rich, there are chickens and fish, Yu Dazhi spent a lot of money to prepare, this sumptuous banquet is rare in this countryside is the New Year, with delicious food, people even changed the habit of talking while eating, and they all concentrated on eating, only the eldest cousin Hu Yulin, who was sitting opposite Yu Panpan, ate in his mouth, but his confused eyes were staring at Yu Panpan: like a wolf staring at his prey, which made Yu Panpan disgusting.
"Big cousin, do you have a sick eye?" Yu Panpan couldn't bear it.
"No, no, don't look at your cousin, you're getting more and more beautiful, just take a look." Hu Yulin didn't feel embarrassed at all.
"Hmph, if you want to stare at me again, I'll gouge out your eyeballs." Yu Panpan made a gesture of gouging out his eyes viciously, this Hu Yulin is a famous gangster in the southern suburbs of City C, but Yu Panpan is not afraid of him at all.
"Then I'll wait for my cousin to dig it up." Hu Yulin said in a smooth tone, didn't his mother want to tell him about this cousin, he didn't look down on him before, black and thin, like root bean sprouts, he didn't think about it for a few months, he was slim, and his face was grown, combining the advantages of his uncle and aunt, he was quite beautiful, and he could make money, I heard that he could earn hundreds of yuan by treating a disease, and such a woman would have both face and lining.
"Really?" Yu Panpan took a peanut and threw it over.
"Ouch." Hu Yulin instinctively raised his palm to block his eyes, and the peanuts hit his palm, which instantly became dark and green, Hu Yulin held his hand and became angry, "How do you say that you can do it?" ”
"Didn't you want me to gouge out my eyes? I haven't done it yet, I can't stand it just peanuts, it's really insulting to your name Brother Lin. Yu Panpan seemed to be smiling, but his eyes were like a sharp sword, and Hu Yulin's heart was furious.
Hu Yulin's younger brothers and sisters didn't expect their eldest brother to be planted on this cousin (cousin), surprised and a little angry at the same time, they are here to be guests, how can Yu Panpan bully people? So they all condemned Yu Panpan: "Yu Panpan, how can you treat my eldest brother like this?" It's really untutored. ”
"You don't have a tutor in your family, how can anyone stare at girls like that, only hooligans are like that." Yu Bo felt uncomfortable when he found Hu Yulin staring at his sister, and when he saw his sister beating Hu Yulin with peanuts, he shouted hello in his heart.
"That's it, Hu Yulin is a little rascal." Yu Tao was not to be outdone.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" The quarrel here alarmed the adults over there, and Yu Dazhi and Yu He came over.
"The eldest cousin stared at his sister, and his sister hit him with peanuts." Yu Bo explained.
"It's nothing, Panpan, your cousin is not an outsider, he only looks at you if he likes you, Yulin, just a grain of rice, it shows that Panpan is clean and self-conscious, and he is a good boy." Yu He and Xi Ni said, winked at Hu Yulin again, and then pulled Yu Dazhi back to the main table.
Yu Panpan was very puzzled by Yu He's reaction: Yu He is a calf protector, and he usually has to stir up three points unreasonably, why did he pass so lightly today? Maybe she didn't expect the power of that peanut, Yu Panpan thought again.
In fact, Yu He didn't expect the power of the peanut rice to be one thing, and the other was that she had an idea about Panpan, and she didn't want to annoy Yu Panpan because of this little thing: the last time I came to drink Yu Leixi's wine, I heard that Yu Panpan went to treat a certain regiment leader, and later heard Liu Shuiyu say that she got a lot of medical fees for treating people, maybe hundreds of yuan, Yang Dongmei also went to Yujiaping to ask for it, and the master in the imperial capital sent packages from time to time, so in Yu He's heart, Yu Panpan became a rich man, and now she wants to marry this rich man home. Pinch her in your hands, and then her family's life will be better. When he told Hu Yulin before, he was still unwilling, saying that Yu Panpan looked like a bean sprout, looking at Hu Yulin's reaction today, he should have taken a fancy to her, and he would not object to this marriage, in this way, this marriage will be more than half successful, as long as he finds an opportunity to talk to Yu Dazhi, her brother should not refute her face; With such a cognition, it is too late for her to be happy, let alone hold anyone responsible.
After lunch, everyone took the offerings to the grave, Yu Panpan's three sisters and brothers walked together, but they didn't go far, Wang Xiaohua and Yu Bei came over, and Hu Yulin and the sisters followed them, Hu Yulin stared at the back of her head with burning eyes.
"Panpan, did you really heal that regimental leader's leg?" Wang Xiaohua suspected that Yang Dongmei was bragging, saying that the doctors in the military hospital could not cure her leg, and her family was hoping to cure it.
"Of course, Brother Lu can walk." Yu Tao said proudly.
"That must have been a lot of money." Wang Xiaohua's face was full of smiles.
"No more, no less, enough for me to eat black market food until next year's student team will share food." Yu Panpan looked at her with a smile, her sister-in-law in the lobby is a powerful character, she just got married and pinched Yu Lei in her hands, she pointed out that Yu Lei didn't dare to fight the west, and she didn't even listen to his mother's words, no, I heard that they were going to split up after the New Year.
"Well, you rent a house for a lot of money? We're about to split up, we don't have a place to live at home, we may have to be neighbors with you, and I hope to take care of you when the time comes. Wang Xiaohua knew that she couldn't mention borrowing money today, so she could only find another opportunity in the future, and she believed that with her means, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to get money from Yu Panpan, a little girl.
"The rent is not much, five cents a month, renting is always temporary, with the ability of the lobby sister-in-law, I believe that I will be able to live in a new house soon." Yu Panpan said with a smile, as long as you don't come to fight my idea, it doesn't matter where you live.
"Sister Panpan, you are so familiar with that regiment commander, it should be easy to become a soldier." Yu Bei took Yu Panpan's hand and said.
"I don't know, I haven't asked." Yu Panpan broke away from her hand, thinking that Lu Runhe wanted to get her to the army, but she didn't want to go.
"Why don't you ask? Don't you really want to be a soldier? Yu Bei knew that she wanted to be a soldier before, and for this reason, she also practiced hard in military boxing and eyesight.
"I don't want to be a soldier now, so why ask this, lest others misunderstand that I want to enter the army through the back door." Yu Panpan said lightly.
"Then you're going to stay in the countryside?" Yu Bei didn't understand that she didn't take advantage of such a good opportunity, she still wanted to take advantage of her east wind to jump out of the farm, if the head of the Lu regiment could come to Yujiaping, she could ask him for a small favor under the sign of Yu Panpan: help her get a female soldier's index.
"There is nothing bad about the countryside, and as long as you learn your skills well, you will have the opportunity to go out of the countryside in the future." Yu Panpan whispered.
