Chapter 255: The Village People Are Guests

Zhang Chunming's warm house ceremony was full of four tables in the large courtyard. From half past eleven to one o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Guoqing was busy all morning, he hurriedly saluted the elders, and hurried home.

Fortunately, the two are not far away. Zhang Guoqing watched Zhou Jiao finish eating, and after cleaning up, he hurried to Zhang Meili's house. I originally thought that it didn't matter if I had two older brothers. But Zhang Guoqing forgot that he is no longer what he used to be in the eyes of others. Since the second child of the Zhang family went to work this week, many people have found a lot of things in their eyes.

The number of guests gradually decreased, and some of Zhang Meimei's and his wife's colleagues had to work night shifts, so they left after three rounds of drinking.

The rest of the villagers began to surround Zhang's father and ask where Zhang Guoqing's house was? Far from it?

Dad Zhang didn't know if he should bring so many people home. As soon as he wanted to ask his wife for help, he saw Zhang Guoqing standing not far away, staring at him all the time.

Dad Zhang immediately came to his senses and said with a smile: "Why are you asking so much?" It's over here, and then I'm going to sit down with my little five. Just right to recognize the way. After speaking, he stood up and took several brothers and two in-laws in the village and walked straight to the small courtyard.

Zhang Guoqing hurriedly found Ziwen and Xizi and asked them to run first to tell Zhou Jiao to entertain the clansmen. He asked Zhang's mother to go to the small courtyard first and prepare some wine and food to entertain the villagers.

Arrange for a group of people in the family to go to the small courtyard. Looking at the back of them leaving, Zhang Guoqing said hello to Zhang Meili happily, and asked his eldest sister to be busy with her own affairs, and there was him outside. His second sister had already negotiated with the chef yesterday, and now he is going to finish it.

Zhang Meili looked at the back of Xiao Wu leaving, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. She never expected so many people to come today. Fortunately, her little five is well prepared, otherwise she would have to become a joke in the county.

Treating the few concubines who have not interfered to help, after eating the banquet, and then knocking melon seeds, Zhang Meili is also smiling. She secretly told herself: Her mother's brother has prepared so much for himself, just because he wants to be prosperous today and live a happy life in the future. How could she live up to their wishes?

Zhang Meili listened to their sour words and dealt with them at the same time. After a while, she found that several eldest brothers also ran to Xiao Wu. Secretly snickering, go ahead, after reading it, I guess you won't be able to sleep.

She touched the quilts with two big red flowers, and knew that it must be Xiao Wu who came to the house last time and went back to tell Zhou Jiao. This was all prepared by his little brother and sister Zhou Jiao.

From yesterday, the two sisters each had 100 catties of briquettes and 100 catties of firewood, to the banquet prepared for her. Not to mention those meat dishes, even those wines are not a few. Combined with these gifts sent to this day, the amount of money spent is not a small amount.

This is why Zhou Jiao is easy to speak, if you change the eldest and second family, you have to peel off the skin of Xiao Wu. said that he borrowed a small five or three hundred yuan, but what did he owe? From the child's pocket money to now, she doesn't dare to think about it.

When Zhang Guoqing arrived at the yard of his second sister Zhang Meimei, he found that the master had cleaned up. And the Chen family locked the main entrance, and it seemed that no one was inside.

He took out a red envelope that he had prepared in advance and stuffed it to the master. After thanking them again and again, I personally sent them out of the door. Seeing them leave, Zhang Guoqing locked the courtyard door and hurried to his house.

As soon as he arrived at his yard, there was a lot of laughter inside, and he was immediately relieved. He didn't rush in, went to the kitchen to have a look. Sure enough, his mother brought her two sisters-in-law, and her second sister-in-law and daughter-in-law were preparing.

Zhang's mother looked at him and stood at the door with a smile on her face, and complained, "You kid, what are you busy with?" Drink a quick saliva. You can rest assured, our Jiaojiao is helping you entertain guests. You go in and have a look, and let her rest. She has been busy serving tea and pouring water. He also drove us out to prepare wine and food, and said that we would go back to the village together after eating. I don't even know what to say about this kid. I also made it all and took it home when I couldn't finish it. You two losers! ”

Zhang Meimei's mother-in-law laughed when she heard this, "Your delicate temperament is as hospitable as beautiful!" That's a good thing. The daughter-in-law is filial. Make faces for both of you. Don't talk about children, make them feel sad. ”

When Zhang Guoqing heard this, he was happy and said with a smile, "Don't be sad." My mother is happy. My two sisters-in-law are really sad. They accompanied my mother to keep busy green, and I didn't see my mother praising them. Sister-in-law, you have been wronged. My brother asked Jiaojiao to pour you water to drink, and if you have anything, you can find her and send her at will. ”

Huang Cuilan smiled and shook her hand again and again, "Don't talk about this." We didn't do anything, just watch today. You've been busy all day, has your eldest sister cleaned up? ”

"It's all packed. The eldest sister's leftover dishes and chopsticks, the chef in charge washed them and brought them back. I just saw them off in my second sister's yard. The master is very good, and even the yard of the second sister is cleaned up. Auntie, I don't think there's a problem. Locked the door of the yard directly. You can play here in peace. ”

Zhang's mother saw that he finished drinking water, and urged him to go in and replace Zhou Jiao.

In the guest room, Dad Zhang and several elderly people sat on the kang, and the two chairs in front of the kang sat the two parents' houses. An old man in the village touched the quilt on the kang and quipped: "Are you used to sleeping in this new quilt?" I see that you have to press a stone slab at night to sleep soundly. ”

Dad Zhang took out his pipe and put it on the kang table, "I really haven't slept here." The child said to keep it for our old couple, but I still like to go back to the village. I'm not used to it. ”

Accountant Zhang laughed, "You stupid old man, you don't know how to enjoy it." Your family of five is so filial, such a good house allows you to smoke and let you toss casually. You old fellow won't be happy. You don't live here! I see that your youngest son is determined to let you live. We've all lived so old that we're going to look at people. As for your little daughter-in-law, she is sincere and wants the two of you to live here. ”

After hearing this, an old man sighed again and again, "The second old boy has a good life." I didn't have a family and had a capable father. When they got married, they had three good sons. When he got old, he had three daughters-in-law. Nothing is missing. ”

Outside, there were shouts of several old ladies and children.

Accountant Zhang pointed outside, "Listen, this is a blessing." Your daughter-in-law is this, I didn't say it. Be a man of the world. Listen to that laughter without a fake. As soon as we came in, we set up our things, served tea and poured water, and let the children go in casually. Good temperament. In-laws, if the child lets you two rest here, you will come. If the child is not distracted by you, you should watch the child more. All good boys. ”

Dad Zhang listened to their praise sentence by sentence, and his heart was happy. Of course, he knew that their young couple was filial, but he couldn't say it, and there was no need to show it off.

It's not that he brags, if he asks Jiaojiao to give him five hundred and one thousand, Jiaojiao will definitely take it out without saying a word. If he says he wants to eat something, he won't bring anything else for a month. And the child will be worried about him and want to take him to the hospital. Even a girl may not be able to do it, but she will. That's what he's confident about.

Jiaojiao's child is different from the above two daughters-in-law. She didn't have her parents by her side since she was a child, and she really regarded the two of them as her parents.

The kid was also very smart, and just now he kept winking at him, motioning for him to take someone into the study casually. She also deliberately ran to open the door wide, and the candy and food were immediately brought out, and she said to her father, do you think you need anything? I'll get it.

Don't blame Brother Zhou for being her lifeline. His little five is filial, but with Jiaojiao, he is even more filial. A good daughter-in-law has been blessed for three generations, and his younger five generations have been prosperous for at least three generations.

After less than half an hour, Zhang Guoqing said a few words to several brothers outside and came into the house.

As soon as he came in, he called Uncle Uncle in turn with a smile, and respectfully chatted with several old people.

These old people don't know a few of these old people, but Zhang Guoqing understands that many of the words spoken by these people are the experiences that life has taught them, and they are more practical than in books.

Therefore, no matter how old the old man is, he listens carefully. When he is old, his grandchildren will behave politely in front of him, and he will also point them out some insights about their own lives.

There were also a few middle-aged people in the room, and they boasted about Zhang Guoqing.

Zhang Guoqing praised their children by the way. Talking all the way, to be honest, he said that the other party was stable and knew everything in his heart, but he was too lazy to pay attention to it.

is lazy, he said that the other party is a smart person and likes to use his brain, just like a literati, you can't let him use martial arts, in fact, he didn't find a way, and when the other party thinks about it, it's no worse than using strength.

is domineering and troublesome, he said that the other party is straightforward, there is no crookedness in his heart, and he will not stab others behind his back.

In short, when he said this, it really made sense, and the old men laughed happily, saying that what Zhang Guoqing said was very reasonable. Also, who would feel that their children and grandchildren are not good.

Zhang Guoqing should have set the table when he heard the sound outside, and stood up, "Let's go, you elders are here today, why do you have to have a drink with my father." There happens to be seafood at home today, let's try it. Dad, you and uncles and uncles take their time, and I'll go get the wine first. Don't be afraid to get drunk, stay here at night, and there is a place to sleep. ”

Lao Chen and Accountant Zhang looked at each other and smiled, the child became more and more able to speak.

As soon as Zhang Guoqing came out, he saw that two tables had been set up in the living room. A group of children drilled down, making a fuss, and when they saw him come out, they all stopped at once, and instantly fell silent.

"Ouch, brothers, you guys are so good. It's all over so quickly. Wait for me, and I'll go find good wine for you to taste. Zhou Guoqing pretended not to notice anything unusual, and said happily.

Several men older than him in the village laughed when they heard this, and they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and some punched Zhang Guoqiang's body, and said with a smile, "No wonder the whole county says that Zhang Guoqing is famous for his righteousness." You kid just did it on purpose, right? ”

"It's up to you to be nervous, our little five are very talkative. If you don't believe me, ask my big brother. Zhang Guoqiang retorted with a smile.

Zhang's mother brought her two daughters-in-law to serve the meal. waited for Zhang Guoqing to come out with the wine jar and invited everyone to the table.

The meal lasted until almost three o'clock, and the children followed Xizi to Zhang Ziwen's house, tired of shopping, and then came back to eat again. In the end, the dishes are clean, as if they have been washed.

Father Zhang drove the ox cart, on which sat the old man and young children, and the other men walked slowly behind the ox cart. After they left, Zhang's mother and the others cleaned up the small courtyard and closed the gate.

Zhang Guoqing found two horse-drawn carriages and was already waiting at the door, and Zhang's mother took her two daughters-in-law and the other one to return to the village with their family of three.
