CHAPTER XLIII

The two talked and laughed and entered the house, and when Liu was packing up his things, he turned his head to see them coming, and said with a happy face: "Brother Bin is here, you can find a place to sit first, I'm busy, I'll entertain you later." Liu Bin laughed when he heard this, and said: "Aunt, you are too polite, treat your nephew as an outsider, I am here to help today." Uncle, you look much better. Zhao Laosi also replied with a smile on his face: "Yes, it's much better, I don't have to lie down all the time to get up and sit down, Brother Bin hasn't seen you for a long time, you have become a big guy, and your grandma is in good health." Liu Bin answered them one by one, Liu listened to it and kept praising him for being sensible and capable, Zhao Laosi asked him some ordinary things, Zhao Jin went to the kitchen to pour a glass of cold boiled water while they were chatting happily and handed it to Liu Bin. Liu packed the small things, put them in the open space on the side in an orderly manner, Liu Bin carried the packed things and put them on the carriage, Zhao Jin moved some pots and chopsticks and moved the uneaten food with the Liu family, Liu Bin saw it and quickly took it and walked out, carrying a large bag of flour on his shoulders and a large jar of oil in his hand.

There are not many things to be distributed by the family, and it is useless to bring farm tools to the town, these are still placed here, and there are not many things added on weekdays, and after a few people are busy, it took about an hour or so to move all the things that should be carried to the carriage. Several juniors of the Zhao family have been watching them in and out with novelty, and there was also a circle of melon-eating people outside the door, all of whom looked at them curiously, and couldn't help but ask: "Siya, are you going to your grandfather's house?" But this big bag is the same as going out. Zhao Jin saw that it was a mother-in-law who loved to chew her tongue, so she replied lukewarmly: "We are going to move to the town to live for a while." After speaking, there was a commotion, and many people whispered to each other, going to live in the town cost a lot of money, and the four rooms were sent this time, so they gloated and looked at the other rooms of the Zhao family. Zhao Jin didn't pay attention to their careful thoughts, in a place like the countryside, there was a lot of gossip and terrible words.

After Zhao Jin and Liu Bin sent things into the new house for the first time, it took more than half an hour to put all the things in place, and then went back to Zhaojia Village, took a few quilts and spread the carriage thickly, and then Liu Bin carried Zhao Laosi out and carefully moved closer to the carriage, Zhao Jin felt that he could go to the town and let the old carpenter master build a wheelchair so that his father could also come out to move. After the four men got into the car, the carriage set off for the town again. After about half an hour of busy work before and after coming to the new house, I finally could take a breath.

Zhao Jin saw that Liu and Liu Bin were looking at this new mansion, so he led them to walk around the courtyard. The layout of this yard is not particularly large, but it is exquisitely built, with two doors in and out, in addition to the main house, the left and right sides, and the backyard are set up ear rooms and wing rooms. Zhao Jin led the two of them around the courtyard. At this time, Liu Bin suddenly looked at Liu, and said to Zhao Jin: "Aunt, cousin, now this new home is moving, but you two can't live in quietly, in my opinion, this move to a new home, you have to have a lively banquet, so that the neighbors and relatives in the township come to take a look, put a few strings of firecrackers, and rush to be happy, so that it is auspicious to live in." ”

As soon as Liu Bin's words fell, he only heard Liu take over and said: "Brother Bin, I also told Siya like this, moving to a new house is a great joy, and this housewarming banquet must be held, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with it when I go back to the village in the future." I haven't seen your grandmother for many years, so take advantage of this time to take over the excitement. The discussion between the two aunts and nephews of the Liu family was in full swing, and before Zhao Jin could speak, seeing that they were in high spirits, he had no chance to interject at all. Suddenly, the eyes of the two turned to Zhao Jin, and finally quieted down at this time, and Ken asked her what she thought, a little crying and laughing. Zhao Jin rolled his eyes, glanced at Liu, and then said, "Mother, cousin, didn't I originally say that I would hold a housewarming banquet, look at you all anxiously like this, didn't you just move today?" After moving and packing up, let's find another auspicious day, and hold a housewarming banquet. ”

Liu Bin scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "It turns out that my cousin has a plan in my heart, or my cousin can do it, and everything is well thought out." After Liu Bin finished speaking, Liu looked at Zhao Jin again and asked: "Siya, since you are going to hold a housewarming banquet, have you set the day for this banquet, this day has to be set in advance, it is a troublesome thing to hold a banquet, you have to buy vegetables in advance, buy noodles or something, the tables, chairs and benches are not enough, you have to go to the neighbor's house to borrow it, you have to prepare a few days in advance." In her previous life, Zhao Jin also participated in a lot of housewarming banquets, and she had already taken into account what Liu said, so she had already looked forward to the days a few days ago. Since Liu asked, she said it bluntly, just in time for Liu Bin to bring the news back to her grandfather.

Zhao Jin looked at the two of them and said: "Mother, cousin, I have already looked through the yellow calendar, the day of June 20 is good, I have decided to hold a banquet on this day, on the morning of the 20th, you and your grandfather and uncle will come directly to the house." Liu Bin nodded and replied: "Cousin, I know, you just have to inform the others, my home is far away, you and your aunt don't have to come on a special trip, it's too tiring." I'll bring the message. After Liu Bin finished speaking, he saw a thick smile on her face, and then laughed happily. Zhao Jin spoke again: "Cousin, on the morning of the twentieth, I will send another carriage to Liujia Village to pick you up, your car is estimated to be unable to sit down, this time I have to let everyone come over." "Okay, my cousin is really thoughtful," Liu Bin said immediately, "I'll go back and tell my grandparents, they must be happy." ”

These days, Liu Bin can see that his grandparents have been worried and sad since they heard that his uncle was sick in bed after his sister-in-law broke up.

After looking at the house, it was not too early, and they were all ready to have lunch, and the cousin who came to the house was still a guest, so Zhao Jin greeted Master Jia in advance, saying that it was troublesome for him to make a table at noon to move today, so the guy in the restaurant came directly to the new house with lunch boxes. After a few people had lunch, they planned to buy things in the afternoon, so if they were free during this time, Zhao Jin was going to go to the street to buy some things for a banquet. Because there are more things to buy, Liu Bin's carriage can come in handy again, and when she buys things later, she will all stuff them into the carriage and pull them home, so as to save her from waiting for those small traders to deliver them to her.
