The more Xia Meng liked her niece, the more she had a strong urge to take out a beautiful little clip from the space jewelry store to dress up the child.

However, it was quickly suppressed by her reason.

After all, the things of the future, whether in terms of material or style, are seriously inconsistent with those of the sixties.

Even if she finds a reasonable excuse, it is easy to arouse suspicion.

If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan.

She then retreated, went to the lid of the box to find a new rubber band to come out, and put a small tug on the top of the child's head, which suddenly became even more cute.

The little guy himself stretched out his little hand to touch his head, and then grinned, and it could be seen that she still liked it.

Xia Xiao couldn't help but hug her niece and tease her face to face.

Xia Peng snatched the child from his younger brother, and then carried him to the kitchen to show his mother and daughter-in-law with lightning speed.

As a result, he was scolded by Xue Mingyue: "Are you such a father?" In the house, I sweated on the hot kang head, and I took it out in the small cotton pants with an open crotch, and then I dried it to catch a cold! ”

Xia Meng and Xia Xiao couldn't laugh when they saw the eldest brother carrying the child back to the house.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, after Xia Xiao went to the yard to set off a hundred firecrackers, Xia Meng's family finally started eating.

I saw that on the boxy kang table, there were six dishes: chicken stewed mushrooms, frozen tofu stewed fish, sauerkraut potato vermicelli, scrambled eggs with green onions, vinegared cabbage, and fried dried potatoes with cucumber and money.

On the edge of the kang, there is also a pot of steaming rice in a large pot.

Xia Meng knew that the ****** had just passed, and it was really not easy to rectify these tables with chickens and fish.

Although there are three wage earners in their family, each person has a certain amount of commercial grain in their monthly account.

The heavy physical strength of a lumberjack like Big Brother is 31 kilograms, ordinary residents and workers are 28 kilograms, and children are 7 kilograms.

There are many coarse grains and few fine grains.

Seven catties of fine grain per month, six catties of white flour and one catty of rice.

On normal days, everyone still mainly uses coarse grains, such as sorghum rice, cornmeal batter, cakes, wowotou, big ballast, potatoes, wogua, etc.

And the oil is four taels per person.

Some people who have passed by even usually only smeared a little oil into the big pot for stir-frying, and then desperately saved oil for croquettes and the like during the New Year.

If there is no oil and water in the stomach, people will naturally eat a huge amount of food, and no matter how large the number of people in the family is, they will not be able to eat the days when they receive grain and buy grain at the end of the month, and it will happen from time to time to go to the neighbors' relatives' houses to borrow grain.

During the Chinese New Year, their family still relied on eating such a meal and did not have much burden.

If there is only one person in the family who earns a salary, but you have to support a large family of seven or eight or more, I am afraid that it is not bad to be able to eat a meal of rich and strong meat dumplings with an open stomach during the Chinese New Year.

Xia Meng finally ate the meal made by her mother who had been thinking about her for several years, and she was very happy and satisfied.

In fact, the dishes are all home-cooked, and there is very little oil, but when you eat it, it feels very delicious.

Maybe there was a mother's love in it, she thought.

After Xue Mingyue moved her chopsticks and ate a few bites, she suddenly remembered something and hurriedly got off the kang and put on her shoes.

It made several people at the table look puzzled.

Xia Meng hurriedly asked, "Mom, why are you going?" ”

Xue Mingyue waved her hand: "You guys eat first, don't worry about me." ”

Soon, she came back with a bowl of yellow, orange and orange chicken cakes with a rag, and muttered: "I forgot to do it on the stove, I almost got a lot of energy." Tong Tong, look at the delicious food that grandma made for you, it is fragrant! ”

Dai Hongye was busy working by the pot, and she really didn't pay attention to when her mother-in-law got it for her daughter, she quickly reached out to take the bowl: "Mom, you eat first, I'll feed her." ”

Xue Mingyue refused: "No, I finally have the opportunity to feed the child, don't fight with me." Our family is not like other people's families, so many heads, so many orders, you can eat yours with peace of mind. ”

Xia Meng understands that her mother is sincere.

Because the eldest brother and sister-in-law live in the forest farm in the mountains, Tong Tong is still young, and the cold weather in winter is not as convenient as in summer, and her mother can only endure it when she thinks about her children.

Now that I've finally come back to her, I definitely want to spend more time with my granddaughter.

She gently persuaded: "Sister-in-law, you just listen to our mother." ”

The sister-in-law has spoken, and Dai Hongye knows that it will be annoying to fight any longer.

"Okay then." She hurriedly said again: "Mom, you are so good." ”

The eldest daughter-in-law's words, no matter how sincere they are, Xue Mingyue is also content.

She scooped a spoonful of chicken cake and blew it, fed it to her granddaughter who was waiting like a little swallow with her mouth open, and then said: "I also compare my heart to my heart, and I have been a daughter-in-law myself, can I still not know the sweet and sour taste in it." As long as you young people live a good life, work hard in one place, and let me, the old man, do whatever you want. ”

Dai Hongye solemnly promised: "Mom, don't worry, Dapeng and I will definitely have a good time, and strive to let you hold your eldest grandson as soon as possible!" ”

"Good! However, grandchildren are the same, our family is not patriarchal, you, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Xue Mingyue knew that her daughter-in-law's mother's family had seven daughters, and finally gave birth to a son, so she paid great attention to this matter, and even let Dai Hongye with influence be more anxious about giving birth to a son than she was as a mother-in-law.

Dai Hongye's nose was a little sour, and he quietly bit his lower lip to suppress the tears in his eyes.

She felt that some of her previous calculations and careful thoughts seemed to be a little too unatmospheric, compared to others, her mother-in-law was really good.

But who can live without his own selfishness? Especially Lao Xia's family is not only her husband and a son, but also a more popular sister-in-law.

Xia Meng noticed the expression of her sister-in-law, and hurriedly turned her elbow to the eldest brother beside her.

Xia Peng, who had just taken a sip of the scalded liquor, was stunned at first.

Later, I reacted at the prompting of my sister.

He grinned: "Daughter-in-law, look, I'll just say it, you have a good life, and you have the best mother-in-law in the world." ”

Dai Hongye nodded hurriedly and said yes.

Xue Mingyue scolded with a smile at her eldest son: "Drink your bar, and I'll pour me ecstasy soup if you don't have to." ”

Xia Peng smiled.

The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly relaxed.

After Tong Tong was full, he was sleepy after playing for a while, humming and chirping a little sleepy.

Dai Hongye just finished eating, and she took the child to the West House, which had been cleaned up in advance, to coax her to sleep.

Xue Mingyue also quickly put down her chopsticks and followed.

There were only three brothers and sisters left on the table.

Xia Peng and his lumberjacks, usually have the habit of drinking alcohol in order to keep warm from the cold and relieve the fatigue of the day, so the amount of alcohol is really good.

But no matter how good Xia Peng's alcohol is, when he drinks wine, it is different from usual, and he will become more talkative, and he always likes to mention the chaff of the past seven hundred years and eight hundred years.

Xia Meng didn't like to listen to it, but when it came to this time, he would definitely follow him to Westinghouse and let the two of them drink slowly.

But now that I have encountered more things, my mood has changed, but I cherish this rare moment of getting along.

Xia Peng, who had already drunk and his face was a little red, picked up the bottle of white wine and poured half a glass for himself and his younger brother.

The two lightly touched the glass, and after he took a sip of wine, he suddenly said in a deep tone: "Second brother, in this family, speaking of which, the eldest brother is most sorry for you!" ”
