Chapter Twenty-Three: I am not happy when I have gifts

Ye Xinyan took the burden in his hand and said to Wang: "Here are the small items that grandpa bought for the children in the family, and I will bring them in for grandpa." ”

With the rich content in the previous basket, Wang's second daughter-in-law, Han, looked at the inconspicuous old burden, and had a little hope in her heart. At this time, I heard Ye Xinyan say that it was just a small item for the children, and I was very disappointed. In our poor families, money has to be spent on the blade, and if there is money to buy small things for the children, it is better to add a few feet of cloth to the house.

Ye Xinyan said that it was a small object, but in fact, the content in the baggage was still in line with Han's expectations.

When Qi Younian's third brother's family heard the news, they met Qi Younian and Ye Xinyan again.

Qi Younian's third brother is called Qi Yourong, he is fifty-two years old this year, his wife is Song, and he has three daughters and two sons. The three daughters are the elder, all married.

Qi Dong, the eldest son of the third room, married his wife Zhang. Don't look at Qi Dong is only twenty-seven or eighteen years old, but he is already the father of three children, and he has two sons and one daughter under his knees, namely Qi Congwen, Qi Congwu, and Hua'er. The eldest Qi Congwen is eight years old, and the youngest flower is only two years old.

The second son, Qi Liang, is twenty-four this year and is married to his wife Pang Zi.

What made Ye Xinyan pay special attention was the appearance of Ponzi.

Pang Zi was holding a boy who was more than a year old, and Qi Yourong introduced it to the second brother, who was the youngest grandson in the third room, Qi Congliang.

Pang Zi saluted Qi Younian and asked the child to call him Grandfather.

The child who is less than two years old is very unclear in his speech, but he also calls his uncle and grandfather decently, although the words are blurred, but the voice of the young child is soft and sweet, and it is very cute.

Qi Yougui, who was sitting on the kang, didn't show his joy, frowned almost uncheckably, and glanced at Qi Yourong with some dissatisfaction.

Ye Xinyan's gaze couldn't help but sweep over, seeing that his uncle and grandfather didn't care at all, he didn't look at Qi Yougui at all, but only looked at the items distributed to the children by Qi Younian with a smile.

Look at the Qi Liang couple again, in their twenties, the younger couple are affectionate. Pang Zi retreated behind Qi Liang, and Qi Liang, who was sitting on the stool, also intimately hugged the child in Pang Zi's arms and put it on his lap, which was normal and loving, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Ye Xinyan didn't understand, why didn't Qi Yougui, who is an uncle, wait to see this nephew and niece in the third room?

Qi Younian and the three of them came to Qinghe Village, but they didn't know the personnel situation of the Qi family's big house and three rooms. Therefore, Qi Younian discussed with Mama Jin, and only bought a body of fabric for the eldest brother and sister-in-law and the third brother, and the rest bought some bright cloth for the children in the two rooms.

In addition, a few packets of sweets and snacks were distributed to several children.

After distributing what Han hoped for, Han was still not happy. The things bought by the second uncle were all wrapped in advance, and they were only divided into large and third rooms, and they were not distributed according to the head. In other words, there are as many things as in both rooms.

This is not beautiful, there are many children in the big house, and they are all big children, so it is likely that a child will not be able to wear a uniform set of clothes. And the children in the third room are few and young, and the cloth is evenly divided into two families, and the children are estimated to make two sets of clothes and have leftovers, what is this called?

But it was a gift from someone else, and it was not good to think too much about it on the surface, and Han could only endure the unhappiness in his heart sullenly.

Lunch is eaten in the big room, and of course cooking is also in the big room.

While chopping the ribs, Han was dissatisfied and nagged with his sister-in-law Xu: "I heard people say that most of the people who come back from going out are like that...... Returning home, yes, is returning home. Seeing the second uncle like this, I'm afraid that I can't live outside, so I came back. Since you don't have money, you don't have to charge your head, what kind of fabric to buy, can a little bit of fabric make clothes? Does a child make a sleeve? ”

The Song family of Qi Yourong's family was also working in the kitchen, and when they heard their nephew and daughter-in-law talking, they didn't stop it, just listened quietly while choosing vegetables.

They came late for the third room, and there were many people at this time, so it was not good to inquire in the room. She only wondered in her heart, she didn't know what this second uncle named Qi Younian was doing when he came back? Looking at the clothes of the second uncle and his granddaughter, and now that Han is speaking, it is obvious that the second uncle is not doing well. Maybe I really can't live outside, so I want to come back and share my belongings and land.

When she passed the door, the second uncle had been away from home for several years, and she was really afraid that the second uncle would come back and share the land and house with her family.

The Qi family was originally an ordinary village in the village, and the division of the family was divided according to the two sons. Even if they were divided into two parts, each family only divided a little more than four acres of land, and in order to maintain the food of the whole family, they also rented the fields of the big families in the village to plant.

If the two families give out the land and house to Qi Younian again, then their life will be even more difficult, this is not good.

Besides, the second elder of the Qi family brought up his three sons, only Qi Younian did not fulfill his filial piety in front of his parents, and he came to divide the family property at this time, but I am afraid that it will not be possible.

Han seemed to be whispering to his sister-in-law Xu, but in fact, he didn't want to avoid the third aunt Song at all. She just said it to the Song family, so that Sanfang also had a preparation.

The father-in-law always has to talk to his second brother several times a year, if it is for his second brother's life to be better and re-divide the family property, then the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the two families need to work together to keep the family property.

Mama Jin was going to come to the kitchen to help, but she listened to Han's nagging at the door, and then looked at the people in the kitchen, they all did things and listened with their own hearts, but no one came out to stop them. had to withdraw silently, and shook his head helplessly at Ye Xinyan, who came out of the hall.

When Ye Xinyan saw Mama Jin's gesture, she could probably imagine the scene in the kitchen, and she didn't go over anymore.

The second room brought enough ingredients, and the Wang family didn't want the other two rooms to think that she was stingy, so they tightened everything and made it together, and the three families comfortably ate a hearty meal comparable to the New Year.

The adult men, together with He Quantai, set up a table on the kang in the middle of the room. The other two tables were women and children, and they were set up in the hall.

Han was still very satisfied with this meal. They have a lot of children in their big house, except for Qi Cheng, who has married a daughter-in-law, most of them are half-grown children, that is, girls, and big children. The amount of food is not comparable to the little guys in the third room.

In addition to a few stir-fried dishes, the meals made in the three big pots of the Qi family, in addition to the ones on the table, there are still leftovers in the kitchen. Han took good care of his three sons and added food to the table a few times.

The Song family and the two cousins and daughters-in-law in the third room were on the side, and they rolled their eyes several times, but they couldn't make the Han family rein in one or two.

After eating lunch, Wang and Song led their daughter-in-law and two granddaughters to clean up the table and kitchen, and He Quantai and Qi Yougui took a break before leading the two brothers to see an abandoned house in the village.

He Quantai explained to Qi Younian as he walked: "Uncle Younian, go and see first, those are two adobe houses, no one has lived in them for a few years, and they are very dilapidated. If you can live, stay first. If it doesn't work, let's go to another house to rent a house. But in that case, it is to live in someone's yard, and it is estimated that the residence is not spacious, so it is not as convenient as living in a yard by yourself. ”
