Chapter 799: Gathering Together
Mu Xiu still can't let go of Chen Dongliang and Wu Miao, although she has never mentioned the two of them, but the two of them are often remembered, after all, Mu Xiu has been looking forward to two lives, and then she found them, and they each did the wrong thing because of a mistake......
Mu Xiu is also an emotional person, so since he can't let it go, let's try to accept it.
Everyone began to prepare for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, picking vegetables and washing vegetables, cleaning the yard, pasting couplets, and the house was full of laughter.
In the evening, when Mu Shui went to invite Chen Jianqiang and the three of them to come over for dinner, the three of them were extremely surprised.
A large round table was placed in the hall of Mu Xiu's house, and this large round table was usually put up and closed, only during the New Year's holidays, when there were many people in the family, the large round table was placed on the square table where the usual meals were placed, and the small square table immediately became a large round table, so that the family could all sit down.
When all the dishes are served, everyone's wine glasses are full of wine, and the meal begins.
Chen Jianqiang and Chen Dongliang drank wine with Mu Shui, and they all drank too much, and the three men who were usually silent suddenly became more talkative.
Chen Dongliang talked about the war when he was a soldier. Later, when Chen Dongliang talked about how he was blown up by a mine in order to push away his comrades, everyone let out an exclamation in unison.
It was the first time that Chen Jianqiang and Mrs. Chen heard Chen Dongliang talk about his past so carefully, Chen Jianqiang was quite calm, his hands were clenched tightly, his eyes were slightly red, and Mrs. Chen couldn't help but wipe her tears.
Mu Xiu was also slightly moved when she heard this, she didn't expect Chen Dongliang to be injured because of this, it stands to reason that he should be considered a hero.
"And then?" Zhou Shuilian asked eagerly.
"Later, when I woke up and saw myself like this, I didn't want to cause trouble to the country, I didn't want her to be dragged down by me for the rest of my life, and I didn't want my father and mother to be sad...... So I just stopped and stopped, and finally ended up here......" After Chen Dongliang finished speaking, he raised the wine glass in front of him and drank it down.
"Everything in this world is still about fate, and you have done good deeds, so God can't stand it, your father and mother are also living here, this village is so big, and I met our family, that is God let them come to find a show!" Zhou Shuilian said with emotion.
When everyone thinks about it, this is really the reason, this family has been going around and around, and they have lived in a county town for so many years...... It's really fate here.
"I don't want to think about the sad things in the past, for the New Year, let's talk about some happy things, and we will all be a family in the future, come, drink and drink." Mu Shui raised his glass, and the three men drank it again.
And Zhou Shuilian, Mrs. Chen and He Ahong chatted about the topic between women, and then they didn't know where they went, Mrs. Chen took the lead in wiping away tears, and the three women had their own sad things, and they chatted as if they had endless words......
Zhong Zhen sat next to He Ahong, his eyes seemed to be glued to her, she laughed at him and laughed, and he sighed softly when she cried.
Mu Xiaoshu took care of the three children, serving vegetables for a while and serving meals for that for a while, and he was very busy.
Mu Xiu looked at the lively appearance in the house, and couldn't help but sigh a lot, she has been here for almost 7 years, and too many things have really happened in the past 7 years.
Her fate has changed, and everyone in the family is not the same as before, and they are all starting to go in a better and better direction, which is all good.
A meal was lively and lively until late, it is said that Chinese New Year's Eve has to keep the New Year, but the children can't stay up, they all fall asleep after eating and washing, He Ahong is not in good health, and he sleeps until ten o'clock.
The three men were also drunk and went back to their respective rooms to rest, while Zhou Shuilian and Mu Xiu cleaned up the house together, and then rested after washing.
It's just that the sound of firecrackers at night is estimated that the villagers have not rested well, but fortunately, Mu Xiu's family lives far away from the village, and the sound of these firecrackers is not very important.
The next day, when the sky was dark, the village was again crackling with firecrackers, and the children were eager to get up. Put on your new clothes and start your New Year's greetings.
The three children put on the new clothes brought back from the capital, looking foreign and beautiful, the three children rushed to Zhou Shuilian and Mu Shui together and kowtowed, the couple took out the prepared New Year's money and sent it to the children, and the three children screamed happily.
He Ahong also prepared New Year's money, and when everyone gave out New Year's money, not only the children had it, but also Mu Xiu.
"I'm so old, I don't want it." Mu Xiu said with a grin.
"Before you get married, you have to get the New Year's money." He Ahong stuffed it into Mu Xiu's hand.
"Even if you get married, the new daughter-in-law can get the New Year's money in the first year, Xiu, even if you get married this year, you can still get it next year." Mu Xiaoshu joked on the side.
Lu Yuan is about to come back, Mu Xiaoshu also watched Mu Xiu write a letter to Lu Yuan, Mu Xiu and Lu Yuan have both graduated, and their ages have arrived, maybe as soon as Lu Yuan comes back, the two will get married.
After Mu Xiaoshu finished speaking, Zhou Shuilian and Mu Shui both showed meaningful smiles on their faces.
"If you don't say that I don't know this, you say that, is it a reminder that you can also get New Year's money next year?" Mu Xiu didn't blush as shy as Mu Xiaoshu thought, but turned to Mu Xiaoshu's body and directly made Mu Xiaoshu blush.
"You... What are you talking nonsense? Mu Xiaoshu said with a red face.
"Xiaoshu, don't worry, next year I will definitely prepare your New Year's money in advance, and I will prepare it big." He Ahong also joked on the side.
"Aunt He!" Mu Xiaoshu couldn't say a word when he was squeezed by He Ahong and Mu Xiu.
"Show? What kind of dumb riddle are you guys playing?? What happened to Xiaoshu next year?? Zhou Shuilian and Mu Shui were a little confused when they heard it, and the two of them looked at Mu Xiu suspiciously and asked.
"You ask my sister." Mu Xiu couldn't help but smile and pointed at Mu Xiaoshu.
"Don't listen to their nonsense, there's nothing." Mu Xiaoshu immediately denied it.
"My sister is shy! Or let me tell you. Mu Xiu smiled slyly at Mu Xiaoshu.
"You... I'll ignore you. Mu Xiaoshu showed the posture of his little daughter, stomped his feet on the ground, covered his face and ran outside.
"Mother! Wait for me! Mu Chunfeng watched Mu Xiaoshu run out, and hurriedly chased after him, Li Hu and Mu Xiaohua glanced at each other, and chased outside together.
"Xiu, tell me quickly, does your sister have a partner??" Zhou Shuilian didn't care about anything else, she stepped forward and grabbed Mu Xiu's sleeve.
