Back in the courtyard, several members of the Song family came out of the house to greet them.

Zhou had an apron tied around his waist and stood at the door of the stove room, looking like he was eating the noon meal.

Since Song Hong left home, Zhou's family has been in a slump, his face is full of bitterness, and his smile is very reluctant.

Song Qing stood next to her with tongs, the clothes on her body were new, and the fabrics were the ones that Song Er had given her last time.

It seems that without Song Hong, now that the life of the family has returned to normal, there will be no more good things like before, and then go to school for the eldest son.

Song Ming saw the return of the second uncle's family, and hurriedly ran over to help move things.

Song Dacai and Song Sancai also stepped forward to take a hand, the New Year was approaching, and the brothers returned to the village a few days ago.

Several people were busy in front of the car, and Wang also happily stepped forward to say hello, and also pulled his son and daughter's clothes to Chang's to see.

At the beginning, Wang's New Year's goods entered Song Ercai's shop, and when Chang's was there at noon, the second sister-in-law on the left and the second sister-in-law on the right, Chang's naturally gave it away in vain.

Of course, Chang didn't take any fabric to heart, so he should make a dress for each of the two dolls.

All the things in the car were taken down, and one person finished it in one hand.

Song Tian got out of the car with Ah Xiu and greeted the people in the courtyard one by one.

I haven't seen it for a month, the two dolls seem to have grown taller again, Song Tian is wearing a cotton robe embroidered with ink and bamboo in smoke blue, a purple moire brocade belt is tied around his waist, and the soap boots on his feet are also embroidered with moire, including the belt on his head, which is also a moire brocade of the same color.

It is said that people rely on clothes and saddles, Song Tian's body immediately made him change, if it weren't for the injury on his face, he thought that he was a young son from a rich family, such an elegant temperament, and also luxurious.

Ah Xiu stood next to him, wearing a Hunan skirt with red embroidered butterflies, a moon-white shawl with rabbit fur edges, a simple silver-covered hairpin on a single screw bun, and a pair of small jade earrings given to her by Song Tian on the earlobe.

When Wang saw it, her heart was sour, she was happy just now, but the second family gave the material to make a set of clothes for her children.

Now in such a comparison, the co-authors are all goods that others don't want.

Look at what other people's sons and daughters-in-law are wearing, they are all dressed up as real rich young ladies and sons.

Wang secretly pursed his mouth and turned his head into the stove room.

In the hall, Chang's couldn't take care of those, and was showing the old couple what she had brought back.

Although the family is separated, the Chang family has done everything that should be done.

This time, I brought back clothes and shoes made for the old couple, as well as fish and wine, tea leaves, dry goods and snacks for hospitality in the New Year.

Chang's didn't buy pork, and the family killed the New Year's pig, and the second room could still share a share.

Since the last time he kicked Old Man Song, Hong has also had an illness, and he has not been able to do well so far, holding a wooden stick, and his body looks a little weak.

She looked at the clothes made by Chang's, nodded and smiled: "The second family has a heart." ”

Speaking of heart, this is not the first time that Chang's has sent things to her, but in order to raise money for her eldest grandson, the Hong family took it out to exchange for silver money.

The clothes Chang got back this time were actually not made by herself, but for those new embroiderers to practice and let them make them.

But she definitely won't say anything about it, what's wrong with getting a reputation.

After reading the old couple, the family began to get busy.

Say goodbye at noon today, and the people in the three rooms will definitely eat together.

The three brothers accompanied Old Man Song to talk in the hall, and the three women rolled up their sleeves and were busy in the stove room.

Song Tian and Ah Xiu fetched water to go to the room in the second room, cleaned up and prepared to make the bed, and had to stay here at night.

The two rolled up their sleeves and were dusting, and after a while, Song Qing pushed the door in, looked at them and said, "Third brother, Sister Axiu, I'll also come to help." ”

As she spoke, she went into the house, and when she saw that the water in the tub was dirty, she took it out and planned to replace it with a new one.

Song Tian took off the cloth towel on his face and glanced at Ah Xiu, and then said, "I'll go next door to clean up and let her do it with you." ”

Song Qing's attitude is undoubtedly flattering, now Song Ming is already on an errand in the shop, Song Hong ran away from home and did not return, and the big house family also lowered their attitude, in the face of a child who was only nine years old, Song Tian was not so stingy, as long as this person knew how to respect in the future, he would not worry too much about the little things before.

The reunion dinner at noon was sumptuous, and the old man Song took everyone to worship the gods, and gave incense to the ancestral tablet, and then the meal was served.

After eating this meal for half an afternoon, Song Dacai drank too much for the first time, and somehow cried on the dinner table, scolded Old Man Song, and asked Zhou to quickly help his man go back to the room, so as not to add bad luck here.

Zhou smiled awkwardly and dragged her husband back to the room.

The two of them left, and the reunion dinner at noon quickly dispersed.

In the afternoon, Song Ercai wrote more than a dozen couplets, and several people worked together to paste them on the threshold, just waiting for the beginning of the New Year.

Old Man Song sat on the threshold and smoked dry tobacco the whole time, even if someone came to call, he didn't go out.

Since Song Hong's incident, in addition to going out to do farm work on weekdays, he no longer goes out, and rarely talks to others.

It's okay to sell land, but for Old Man Song, his old face has been lost at that moment.

In the evening, it was another lively meal.

At the dinner table, Song Ercai mentioned the matter of returning to the town tomorrow afternoon, and he also prepared a few gifts for a few relatives who needed to visit when he returned home this time.

The son left in such a hurry, the smile on Old Man Song's face fell, and he sighed and didn't say anything.

No matter how he thinks about it now, the second room family is estranged after all.

After eating, the brothers sat down at the table and chatted about this year's harvest, the children's affairs and next year's plans.

Everyone has a tacit understanding and tries to avoid talking about Song Hong.

The eldest grandson who was once full of hope is now not so personal.

When it came to next year's plans, Old Man Song had to ask about the development of Buzhuang, and Song Er mentioned the matter of Mulberry Garden and Embroidery Workshop.

Old Man Song listened silently and didn't say anything.

When it came to this, Song Sancai couldn't help but ask, "Second brother, I heard you say that Buzhuang will be very busy next year, I don't know if there are enough people, and it is not as good as my own family to find someone outside, as long as the second brother speaks, I can immediately put down the errand in the medicine garden and go to the town to help the second brother on an errand." ”

Song Sancai looked at the glamorous return of the Erfang family to the village, and he had long wanted to ask this.

Although he is not bad at mixing in the medicine garden, and his relationship with the steward is also good, there is not much difference between serving medicinal herbs and farming, which is too tiring, how can it be easy to see the shop.
