The Zhang family's full moon banquet began at 11 o'clock at noon and lasted until the sun was about to set in the afternoon.

Many people don't care whether the dishes on the table have been heated or not, and they take advantage of this rare opportunity to pick up wine and find friends to share wine and make home. Usually work on the ground every day, and the banquet is a good place for people in the village to come to gather and chat. Everyone drank wine and chatted about homely things, and the time passed so quickly.

There are four tables in the Zhangjiatang house and the right wing room, and in addition to the elders in the village, all of them are relatives and friends who are closest to each other. Zhao Chuanguang is his mother's family, and he was poured a lot of wine today.

In the front yard of the courtyard, the tables of women and children have become flowing water mats. It's rare to see meat, and the stomach can't be filled for a day, and the children in the village come to see the excitement and don't leave, adults pull adults, and children pull children. In this way, it was not until all the prepared dishes were emptied, the master in charge of the pot was brightened, and the women of the village took away the reluctant children before they dispersed.

After the banquet is dismissed, the guests and relatives who have traveled far away are sent away. Seeing that Zhao Chuanguang and they were going back, Zhou Jiao hurriedly pulled Lin Lishan and Zhang's mother to discuss.

In the bedroom of the main house, Zhou Jiao looked at them with blank eyes.

Zhang's mother saw that Lin Lishan was similar to her daughter, and she didn't know anything about human affairs. Since you will be a relative in the future, you can't be sloppy in return. This time the gift went wrong, and it was not good that people had a pimple in their hearts.

"Big sister. I think you and the child and her father will definitely get along with them in the future. Do you think that will work? They accepted a few cents in the red envelope, and returned the rest to them. This is also considered to be collected. I take all the other things, the children's clothes, those are all accepted. If you don't want to go, prepare for the New Year's gift thicker. ”

Lin Lishan nodded. She remembered that she got married, and those people received all the gift money. According to her thoughts, it doesn't matter if you receive all the red envelopes.

Zhou Jiao was afraid of the trouble of pushing around, so she secretly stuffed it in a bamboo basket, if she didn't find out that she lost it, it would be providence. Treat yourself as if you've already received the gift.

In the small living room, Zhao Chuanguang pulled Zhang Guoqing and muttered in a low voice. He and his wife planned to let Zhou Jiao and his wife take their children to the provincial capital and go back to their parents' house to move their nest. This time, because there were other brothers who came together, they didn't bring a lot of things and waited for the children to come to the door. Seeing Zhang Guoqing's refusal, he desperately took the bait.

Zhang Guoqing couldn't cry or laugh, not to mention the side three wheels, even if the plane was sent over, Zhou Jiao would not stay at the other party's house for a few days.

"Godfather. Do you think this will work? Didn't we go back to Beijing at the end of the year? We're here for you early. Forget it this time, the child is too young to toss. It's a custom to move a nest or something, so let's not take it seriously. Are you afraid that we won't go in the future? Do you think I'm so good at being my father-in-law? ”

Zhao Chuanguang saw that he had made up his mind, so he thought about it or forget it. Since their young husband and wife don't pay attention to these customs, Jiaojiao shouldn't touch the scene. He also didn't approve of the child taking him out just after the full moon, and suddenly changing to an unfamiliar environment, who knows if the child is used to it. His son did not move his nest, and returned to his grandfather's house after 100 days. As for the gifts, tomorrow I will wait for him to go to the provincial capital to send someone to bring him back.

"Then when you go to the provincial capital tomorrow, remember to find me, and by the way, go to see the old man and the old lady of our family. Originally, I promised them that you would go to the provincial capital. It's going to be fine, it's not done, you'll have to talk to them personally. Zhao Chuanguang saw that he agreed, and he should also leave after looking at his watch. His brothers have to rush back to report, and they can't afford to delay.

When they were about to separate, Huang Huimin pulled Zhou Jiao and insisted that she agree to go back to her parents' house to move the nest. Later, Zhang's mother promised to let them live for a while when the children were older, and then she was reluctant to get into the car.

After sending this wave of people away, Zhang Guoqing suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Now there is only the mother-in-law and Cheng Lin's two daughters in the family. After sending them off on the train tomorrow, the full moon wine that I had been worried about for a long time finally came to an end. As for next year's first birthday, it will be lively if you want to.

Zhang Guoqing's cousins didn't serve the table, they were busy serving food bowls and moving wine jars. They would have to wait for the women to clean the tables, which they would bring before dinner for the village to come.

At this time, as soon as Zhang Guoqing saw them, he hurriedly pulled them into his kitchen and asked his mother to simply clean up some dishes, and they filled their stomachs first. I've been busy early in the morning until now, and my legs are thin. Holding a banquet at home is lively, but what is left is a piece of chicken feathers. If it weren't for them today, Zhang Guoqing wouldn't dare to imagine what would have happened.

After cleaning up the mess and sending back the borrowed tables, stools, dishes and chopsticks, the Zhang family was all soft in the hall, and no one wanted to move. Zhang Meili had expected this a long time ago, so she asked her man to go back with the children first. The last time Zhang Guoqing got married, she was so busy that she lay on the kang and slept for a day and a night.

Zhang Meili pulled Zhang Guoqing to sit on the side, and said in a low voice: "No one from the old Zhou family came today. Even the patriarch of their Zhou family asked his daughter-in-law to come over with a basket. Isn't it strange, you say? ”

Zhang Guoqing really forgot about the old Zhou family. Since his father-in-law's life was exposed, he hasn't seen the family. Plus there are a lot of things going on today. He really didn't notice who else hadn't come?

"If you don't come, you don't come. Let's see what Jiaojiao says. Sister, who else hasn't come? I see that except for my aunt, everyone is here, right? ”

"Those who don't know are here, but who hasn't? The eldest aunt also asked someone to bring a gift, but there was not even a shadow of it, and I don't know if something happened? I think our dad and they're all worried. Don't mention your aunt to them. It is estimated that our father will go to my aunt's house in the next few days. Zhang Meili commanded him uneasily.

Father Zhang saw that the whole family was there, and gave Zhang's mother a look. I saw Zhang's mother take out a handkerchief with money from her pocket and put it on the kang, and said to Zhang Guoqing, who was talking to each other: "Little Wu, this is the favor in the village today. It's all for our peace. Not much, it's just a meaning, you take it for the child. ”

Zhang Guoqing hurriedly shook his hand, "Mother, say okay." The favors in the village are all yours and your father's, and yours will handle them. You keep this money and pay it back later. Put it away. If you give it to Jiaojiao, she won't want it. ”

Father Zhang knew that the child didn't understand these rules, "This money must be collected for the child." Not for you, but for peace. You take it first. This money and the usual favor are two different things. Today's expenses are all paid by you, and even the pigs killed at home are paid, and Dad didn't take it. Will I be polite to you for this money? This is the rule, if you don't believe it, ask your brother and sister-in-law, is it your brother and sister-in-law who are receiving favors for a few full moons in Xizi? ”

Dad Zhang deliberately said this as if the whole family was present. Save the two daughters-in-law in the family and the old son full of gifts. Although the old son confiscated the gift money today, he was able to send a lot of food and clothing.

I heard his eldest daughter say that the house of the young couple was full of people, and it was difficult to even turn around. He knew it must be a lot. He had to make it clear that the family had not yet been separated, and that his old son had already paid for the pigs killed by the family. This banquet was paid for by the old son's private pocket, which saved the brothers and sisters from being bad in the future.

Zhang Guoqing saw that he said so, and took the money handed to him by Zhang's mother. For the two brothers who said that they would return the pig money to him, Xiaoxiao refused.

Just kidding, in addition to his hunting to supplement the family, this pig is the largest income in the family. Not to mention that he and Zhou Jiao haven't even touched pig hair, they are all taken care of by two sisters-in-law, so they take advantage of the opportunity if they don't have good intentions.

As for the food posted at home, he didn't open his mouth when he saw that his father didn't mention it. He has the highest work score in the whole family, and with the fine grain brought by his mother-in-law, he knows it in his heart.

Brothers settle accounts. Don't look at this brotherhood, if you have a good relationship, you can do things at will. He really doesn't handle it himself, the two sisters-in-law must be uncomfortable, there is no reason why his son's full moon banquet is so grand, and their children are inferior. It's better to figure it out before you break up. suffers a loss, his father and mother are good people.

Seeing that he had handled the matter of his eldest son, Father Zhang then asked his second son, "Second son, how is your yard cleaned up?" Dad, you can't do it yourself when you go to work every day. You arrange it early, and you should have someone to help find someone early. Otherwise, it will be too late to make the move. You have to know what to expect. ”

"Dad, the window paper, outer curtains, and firewood in the main house of Xiaowu and I have been prepared a few days ago. The wing room will be cleaned up when the weather is warm next year. Now I can live by just waiting for the things in the house to be moved. ”

Daddy Zhang nodded. He knows in his heart that his son is reliable. After listening to the master bricklayer's suggestion, as soon as the three rooms in the main house of the courtyard were built, his two sons began to tidy up. They have a small population, and the wings can be sorted out next year. He plans to find the patriarch to have a good day and split up early, seeing that the five days of Xiao Wu are getting better and better, it is easy to have a quarrel when living together, and it is still far away from the blind date.

Zhang Guoqiang has been busy all day today, and he is very tired, but he is very happy. There is no harm without comparison. He had lost hope in his own Yue's family before. He really didn't expect that his father-in-law and mother-in-law would be honest when they saw Xiao Wuyue's family today, and even said that they were ashamed of their son-in-law.

Oops, it's really not easy for the sun to come out in the west. Whether or not what they say is true or false, that's enough. He doesn't ask for much, as long as he doesn't add to the chaos, the filial piety will not be left behind.

This will Zhang Guoqiang still don't know that his father-in-law's family will eat public food from him, for fear that he will dislike his daughter-in-law and break off this family. Old man Lin and his wife conspired with their son and daughter-in-law for a long time and came to a conclusion. Seeing that his son-in-law is about to soar, he is not afraid that there will be no big girl to marry him. This son-in-law can only stammer, but cannot be offended. Once the relationship is good, I am not afraid that he will not bring the Yue family. Who would be as stupid as the old Zhou family? A good road has been broken.

Today, Old Man Lin and his wife were even more frightened when they came over. All the leaders in the township came, and then looked at the carriage ceremony of Zhang Guoqingyue's house, and several bamboo baskets of eggs. He really had never seen a little doll's full moon wine tossed like this. Not to mention those who look like the officers' mother's family.

The whole family gathers in the outhouse, looking at their wives and grinning around the gifts. He finally woke up, and his family had raised so many money-losing goods, and he finally came up with a useful one. Thinking of what his little girl secretly stuffed into him, he couldn't help laughing.
