Chapter 69: Quarrel

"It's still my sister-in-law's craftsmanship!" Huo Lu instigated a pig's trotter, satisfied: "This pig's trotter is delicious and rotten, and the stew is really good!

Kou Xi looked at Huo Lu with a smile: "You guessed wrong, this fire has always been watched by your daughter-in-law." This goose and this pot of braised pork are all the credit of Xiao Man. If you want to thank her, you have to give her a glass of wine, she has worked hard today!"

Huo Lu looked at his wife curiously: "Why did you do it? Why didn't I know you had this skill?"

Gao Liman looked up and said triumphantly: "What do you know? I still have a lot of unique skills that I haven't revealed!"

"Don't say it's a big goose, it's really delicious. Song Jiangang echoed and praised Gao Liman: "Oh, you two are today's great heroes." This Chinese New Year's Eve meal is not easy to make, and this frying and frying is not easy. Come and give me a glass of wine to you two chefs!"

Song Jiangang raised a toast, and Gao Liman immediately refused: "Oh mom, I can't do it, I don't know how to drink." ”

"I don't know how to drink yet, why don't you drink two taels yet!" Huo Lu smiled and put his wine glass in front of Gao Liman: "Come, use my cup!"

Here he said to Kou Xi again: "Sister-in-law, I know you can drink." Come, I'll pour you a glass of wine. As he spoke, he stood up and really took the liquor on the table and poured it full for Kou Xi.

Li Cuilian frowned on the side: "What kind of wine do women drink, don't drink it." ”

"Why can't women drink? Haven't you heard that sentence, women are half the sky now. Huo Lu held the wine glass with a bit of a positive look on his face: "Sister-in-law, the life at home has been getting better and better since you entered the door." If it weren't for you, the tofu and noodles at home wouldn't be selling so well. I hope that in the coming year, under your leadership, our family's business will get better and better. ”

Kou Xi stood up and smiled with a wine glass: "I didn't do anything, the craftsmanship is our father's alone, and everyone is also the one who contributes, so I moved my mouth and didn't pay anything." But there is one thing you are right, our business will get better and better next year. When we made money in the coming year, our family registered a trademark and printed it on the noodle packaging. Set up a noodle factory, our dad is the chairman of the board of directors, you are the general manager!"

"Hahaha, sister-in-law is really good at talking, borrow your auspicious words. Huo Lu's face was flushed by Kou Xi's words, and he drank it all with a wine glass: "Sister-in-law, I did it!"

"Oh, Mr. Huo, I've done it too!" Kou Xi raised his head and drank it all.

"Oh, mom, if my son can become the general manager, it would be great!" Li Cuilian clapped her hands happily and pushed Zhang Yao with her elbow: "Oh, look at how much you can talk." You learn too!"

Zhang Yao drooped her face, not angry: "I won't, I don't have that ability." ”

The atmosphere cooled down suddenly, Li Cuilian glanced at her, and secretly sulked and ignored her.

After eating two bites of food, Kou Xi picked up a glass of wine and stood up and said to Huo Dagui: "Dad, this is the first Spring Festival I have ever married. What have I not done well for such a long time, you are old-fashioned and mostly inclusive. I was spoiled by my dad when I was a child, and I have a straight mouth and no heart, and you always have a lot of tolerance. ”

Huo Dagui also picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Oh, I should mention this cup." You are the eldest daughter-in-law of our old Huo family, and you are the lucky star of our family. They are all their own families, they don't say anything, they all have their own tempers and have to run in with each other and be humble. After getting along for a long time, I slowly got used to it, and our family will be prosperous in the future. I also wish you and Huo An a hundred years of good together, and give me a big fat grandson in the future!"

After speaking, the two of them raised their heads and drank it all, and Zhang Yao on the side sneered: "I still have a big fat grandson, how can I have a child if I don't come back!"

Huo Dagui put down his wine glass heavily, and said coldly: "I can't come back this year, and I won't be able to come back next year?" There is always a time for the army to have a holiday, and after two years, he will apply to join the army, won't Kou Xi pass." ”

Zhang Yao lowered his head sullenly, and Song Jiangang hurriedly raised his glass to Kou Xi: "Oh, brother and sister, don't take it to heart." Your second sister has always had this temper without intention, and she is also a straight person. ”

Kou Xi looked at Zhang Yao and smiled lightly: "I know everything, what the second sister said is also the truth." The two of us get together less and leave more, and it is not easy to have a child. And Huo An's work nature can only give birth to one child. If we really had a daughter, we would have accepted it. You can't let Huo An lose her job just to give birth to a son!"

She raised her eyebrows and looked at Huo Dagui: "Dad, do you say that's the truth." ”

Huo Dagui nodded again and again: "That's right, that's right." Giving birth to children depends on their own lives!"

Zhang Yao seemed to have been stabbed in the back, and her voice was sharp: "What depends on fate, it depends on whether you are willing to give birth or not." I don't understand you, how important it is to have a son at work? When you die of old age, you still have to have a son to take care of it? No matter how good the unit is, who cares about you!"

She looked at Kou Xi and sneered: "You guys are living a good life now, and you can easily earn so much money every month." What's the use of eating, drinking, and wearing good clothes. It's better to raise a few more children like us. When they grow up, the children will be able to spend a little money a month!"

"Then according to what you say, it's better to have a girl. There are many bride prices for girls, and if you give birth to seven or eight daughters, you will send it!" Gao Liman sneered: "If you have a son, you have to marry a daughter-in-law to buy a house for the bride price, so it is better to have a few more daughters." ”

Gao Liman teased Zhang Yao with a wicked smile: "If you don't give birth to a daughter, what are you doing to give birth to a son!"

"Smack!" Zhang Yao slammed the chopsticks on the table and shouted hoarsely at Gao Liman: "What do you mean? You curse me for the New Year, don't you? Tell you, my birth is a son, if you give birth to a girl, you will curse me, and it is all your fault!"

After saying that, he raised his face and cried!

Kou Xi looked at Zhang Yao in amazement, and then looked at Huo Dagui nervously. In rural areas, the elderly are very taboo to cry at home during the New Year, even if the naughty child causes trouble, he can't bear to be harsh.

"What are you howling!" Huo Dagui jumped like thunder: "What are you howling about during the New Year? What do you want to do?"

Zhang Yao closed her mouth and pointed at Gao Liman's face full of anger: "She ....."

Huo Dagui knocked on the plate with chopsticks, jingling: "The family is lively for the New Year, why do you make you unhappy?

"You all bully me, you bully me every day. Isn't it because I'm poor, you all come to squeeze me one by one!" Zhang Yao stuck her neck in her waist, she also knew that no one dared to do anything with her when she was a month old.

"Who bullied you? You don't get up until noon every day. Your mother will cook whatever you want to eat. There are two younger siblings in the family, one works outside every day, and the other takes care of the children at home and serves the family. Who has the kung fu to take care of you? Have you reached out for the Chinese New Year?"

Huo Dagui's eyes widened, and he reprimanded Zhang Yao: "It's not me who said, a few days ago, your mother and Xiao Man made frozen dumplings and sticky bean buns." Dry until eleven or twelve o'clock, tired back pain. If you want to be sensible, it's the same thing to help your family watch the children. Every day, he opens his mouth very big, and he knows how to eat if he tilts his head on the kang head without raising his eyes or opening his eyes. Your mother works all day when it's raining!"

Speaking of Huo Xinyu, Huo Dagui's anger was a little bigger: "You said that you still want the family to do something to you? I specially built a house for you to live in, and in the past two days, you said that the cold kang tide in the house will go back to live in this house." I can only let Xinyu go back to your grandma's house, and I haven't picked it up since the New Year. What else do you want?"
