16. Family feasts

Heavy snow outside the house, the northwest wind with goose feathers and heavy snow ravaged the cheeks of the children in Happy Village, the heavy snow can not stop these children from playing, there are unbearable run home to rest for a while, and after a while they run out again, the snow is getting thicker and thicker, and the snowman snowball fight with the heavy snow is more exciting. The snow at the door of the house was swept over and over again. The four elder brothers of Qi took turns to sweep the yard, and the walls of the Qi family's old mansion were full of high snow walls, Qi Ziqiang and Qi Baiyue kept kicking the snow wall, laughing at the splashed snow.

Grandma Qi looked at the yard that had just been swept and was in a mess, and beckoned a few of them into the house, so that they could stop in the house for a while.

Qi San's sister-in-law and Teacher Wang dragged their cubs and quickly poured out the snow in the shoes, otherwise the cotton shoes would be soaked for a while, and one person would have a pair of cotton shoes for the winter, and they would not like to dry when they got wet.

After the banquet, Daddy Qi hurried to say this year's income clearly before the New Year, his son and daughter-in-law had nothing to say, Daddy Qi planned to borrow more next year to build the house of the third and fourth sons.

A compound to live in, not far away and not close to take care of, very good, the topic is getting hotter and hotter, everyone is discussing how to build the house, how big it is, Qi Baiyue and a few small ones have begun to divide rooms.

Father Qi suddenly said, "Whether the days are good or bad, not only look at the house, look at the money, look at the food, but also look at the comfort, since yesterday's incident happened, I can't treat it as nothing, you are not at home every day, it is not easy for the daughter-in-law to take care of the children at home, the work in the city is not every day, and the daughter-in-law can't tie your pants and belts, pay attention to yourself, don't get up those fancy intestines, if you let me know, get out!" Father Qi paused, and his majestic tone made his sons and daughters-in-law squeak, and the three little ones were so obsessed with the chicken head that they didn't get involved in the affairs of adults.

"I won't care about your money next year, your mother and I are also older, you have a house, and the children are not less, so you can grow snacks every day, the fourth child is in his thirties this year, you all control this family, whether it is good or bad is your own day, this old man is a rake for money, the old lady is a box for collecting money, my four daughters-in-law in our family I don't treat you as outsiders, all these years as your own children, you are also good, now every family is getting better and better, all the contributions are indispensable, also gave birth to such a good grandson to our old Qi family, if you do something one day, I, an old man, can't do anything to you, so don't recognize me as a father. After Daddy Qi finished speaking, he took a sip of wine lonely, getting older and older, and he was unable to do a lot of things, which was quite sad.

To say that the parents in this family are like old scalpers who have paid for this family all their lives, the only thing they want is that their children and grandchildren can have a good life, everyone has a bit of a bad thing, poverty is not the most difficult, the most difficult thing is that the heart is not aligned, the husband and wife turn against each other, the heart is scattered, the family is scattered, the older generation does not ask for much, and the beauty and stability are true.

The four brothers looked at their elderly parents, their wrinkled faces, their hair was already gray, and their hearts were also sad, everyone didn't admit what happened yesterday, but if you think about it, there are always some clues, but you can't say anything. My father is disappointed, at such an age, there is nothing to see through, I can't understand, I am sad and helpless, this person's heart should be tight when it should be tight, and it should be loose when it should be loosened, before they were also poor and couldn't do anything, now seeing that his life is better, he can't hold all the money in his hands, they young people go to fight, let them have points in their hearts.

"This small party, a few days ago said that he wanted to buy shares, buy a car for our family, the main thing to see is the face of the fourth, if our family buys a few more cars is definitely unrealistic, he said that I also thought about it, the fourth, although it is usually not very reliable, but it is also childish, he is the youngest in the family, the character is still okay, in a no fourth, people will not take money to buy a car for us, the car belongs to the fourth manager, this outside work, the fourth is well-connected, and can always make money, you brothers twist into a rope to manage well, In a few years, I can also have a car left, the fourth child has a good sum with Xiaofang in the past two days, what a charter, you can't let the small party lose, you brothers can also earn a little bit, the children in the family are all older, the strong son is still young, and he is sensible, the fourth daughter-in-law can also take care of it at school, there is nothing to do at home, don't go out to find a job, all go with the car to do some odd jobs, a lot of earning, it's up to you. After Daddy Qi finished speaking, he didn't say anything anymore, and after eating, the four brothers of Qi also began to fight with their father, but no one answered what they just said, and several daughters-in-law quietly thought about their little Jiujiu.

Qi Ziqiang knew what happened yesterday, looked at a few uncles, and then looked at his father, and toasted Father Qi with a small wine glass, which made Father Qi laugh, "Our strong son, we will grow so big in one run, we will toast Grandpa, do it!" ”

"It's done!" Qi Ziqiang dried up the drink, looked at his grandfather with a smile, looked at Qi Er, and Fuer smiled at his father again, no one cared about Qi Ziqiang's eyes.

Qi Lao Si didn't know what his daughter meant by himself, he was playful and wanted to fight with his daughter, picked up the wine glass and touched it, the two of them also made a fist on the table, the big guy knew that Qiangzi was smart, and he didn't know if the fourth child could cross his daughter, so they all coaxed and shouted.

Qi Laosi was poured too much by his daughter, and when he went home, he stretched out his hand to gesture, and shouted in his mouth, but no one could understand what he said, Teacher Wang complained that Qi Ziqiang was really doing, and glared at Qi Ziqiang several times, Qi Ziqiang didn't care, he drank too much and got angry, so he ran to Fang Hong's house.

Today in the yard watching Fang Hong's car drive back, should be at home, go for a walk, go home early is indispensable to be beaten, as long as Teacher Wang is idle, he can always find a reason to beat her, go back later, Teacher Wang cleaned up Qi Lao Si It is also quite laborious and laborious, and he may be able to avoid this catastrophe.

Fang Hong was really at home, sitting on the small bed and looking at Qi Ziqiang with resentment, playing with the jade pendant in his hand.

"I haven't looked for you for days, where are you dead." Fang Hong said complainingly.

"It's been a busy past two days, haha, you're not always at home, what am I doing, it's boring." Qi Ziqiang sat next to Fang Hong, snatched the jade in his hand, and shone it at the light.

"What's wrong with that little cub, hehe, tell me today that you won't play with him anymore, and watch TV in the house by yourself, a resentful face that has captivated the country and the city, haha." Fang Hong gloated and snatched the jade pendant from Qi Ziqiang's hand.

"Delicate, not happy to play with him." Qi Ziqiang remembered the affairs of his family, and he felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart, and the betrayal seemed to be so light and irreparable.

"Uncle, if you have a daughter-in-law, can you be good to her?" Qi Ziqiang asked inexplicably.

"Hey, I want to have a daughter-in-law, what's wrong with you." Fang Hong looked at Qi Ziqiang strangely, Qi Ziqiang can be stubborn, wanton, angry, and have many emotions, but sad? I'm a little younger.

"It's nothing, I found this book yesterday, the shortcomings page, it's okay for you to take a look, it's the kid's disease." Qi Ziqiang was not interested, so he didn't say anything, and sat there looking at the jade pendant of Maitreya Buddha.

"What do you say, you tell your uncle, uncle can't give him his life, if it's easy to solve it, you can do it, uncle will give you benefits, hehe." Fang Hong took out a jade plaque from his pocket again, a fine ice seed, and the flocculent inside was like a landscape painting, which was beautiful.

Qi Ziqiang snatched the jade card again and shone it at the lamp.

"This jade is not an egg, what are you shooting, mountain cannon." Ignoring her, he took out the preserved fruit from the pillow at the bedside and ate it.

"Uncle, let's try to raise some jade, this mountain in our village has good feng shui, the natural magnetic spirit is complete, a little change is the Wanhe array, Zhong Tianyi can't die if he gets a life-saving jade, get a pendant and send him away." Qi Ziqiang threw the peace card in his hand, snapped it on the ground, and stepped on it again in anger.

"Ancestor, that's money, don't waste it, okay, why are you a loser than me!" Fang Hong twitched in distress, he had been playing for a long time, and he had a little feeling, this ancestor really owed!

"What's the use of this, what are you keeping it for?" Qi Ziqiang asked.

"That's a good stone, let's not fall it, okay? There are so many river stones, nothing to play with that! Fang Hong said angrily.

"There's no difference between them, your spider is good-looking, that's good, play with that one for a while." Qi Ziqiang has been coveting that cracked jade for a long time.

That piece of jade was specially raised by Fang Hong's grandfather for him in the feng shui array for three years, and the last time he pinched Qi Ziqiang's life, it cracked inexplicably, and once Qi Ziqiang saw that he had to ask for it, Fang Hong didn't take it out. This ancestor can really pick anything.

"That is mainly a crack pattern is good-looking, what's the use, you are still a baby, last time I took away four pieces of jade from you, the back mountain went to the mountain, what about the mountain, find a good place, put a soul collection array, if those few pieces of jade are cultivated, it is good to bring them to children, I plan to keep them for my eldest nephews, and I won't give you a piece." Qi Ziqiang despised Fang Hong's short-sightedness, what was the use of that broken jade except for listening.

"That's my grandfather's relic, should I keep a thought, little ancestor, don't do it." Fang Hong asked.

Fang Hong has always been generous to Qi Ziqiang, Qi Ziqiang took his family's book to study jade, he took out the jade at home for Qi Ziqiang to study, the cost of education is high, that is, the foundation of the Fang family is still there, or ordinary people really can't afford to teach, the ancestral doctrine is given, and a lot of good jade will be lost in the process of raising jade, Feng Shui is not right, one is that jade hurts people, and the other is that the jade is broken in the process, Qi Ziqiang has harmed a lot of good jade, not to mention that a few pieces can really be raised. What Fang Hong wore around his neck was raised by Qi Ziqiang in a water tank some time ago, Fang Hong was rare, Fang Hong often sighed why Qi Ziqiang didn't reincarnate in his house, learning things at a young age is really fast.

The mastery of raising jade is what his eighth uncle is best at, but now that people have no research, everyone really has their own lives.
