Chapter 105: New Year's Special (2)
Sanhua Village is not around the capital, and it has developed in recent years, but there is still a gap between it and the people in the capital. There are not many private cars, and if they do, most people will choose to show off their wealth outside the door.
The Ji family is also a little famous, after all, the second Ji Chunlin is a famous university professor in the capital, this is enough to grow the face of the old Ji family, this is not today is Chinese New Year's Eve, there are already many people in the village come to say hello, chat, hope to get along with the old Ji family, in the future, if something happens, you can also let the family help the liner.
No matter how simple the people in the village are, they also have this kind of thought, and this society is like this, and it is always better to have connections than not to have connections.
At this time, the Ji family and the family sat in the courtyard to eat, the first two days were rainy and rainy, on Chinese New Year's Eve, the sky seemed to sense it, at eight or nine o'clock began to clear up, at noon the sun hung even higher, people prefer to sit in the yard to bask in the sun, as long as a reunion, it is better than anything.
The second family still hasn't returned.
Sitting around the old man are the old family, the fourth family, the fifth family, the sixth child, that is, the youngest daughter's family, did not come, and in the man's house, he did not come until the second year of junior high school.
The third child died early, so the strong man in the family is the eldest and the fourth and fifth, the eldest is an authentic farmer, having said that, but he is diligent and fast, and his annual income is also a little considerable. Didn't he call in the morning and say that this year is the same as last year, and he won't come back for the New Year, and he will spend it in the capital again? ”
The second child didn't come back, and sent 5,000 yuan back, which can be regarded as filial piety. But more often, what the elderly want is not what money can solve, what they want is just the reunion of their children and grandchildren. Ji Chunlin also wanted to come back for the New Year, but neither of his wife and daughter wanted to come back, either because he was uncomfortable living in his hometown, or because he felt that he had no common language with the old man, and if he came back alone, it would inevitably be a little embarrassing, so he chose the most compromise way.
I hope that 5,000 yuan can buy something for the old man to eat and wear, and live a better life, which is a part of his heart.
The old lady was silent and didn't speak, her face was not too good, and the old man Ji, who was sitting next to her, wiped his face and took a sip of wine: "The second child is busy at home, don't think about it too much...... When you have time, you are still worried that he will not come back. ”
That being said, the second child really hasn't been back for some years. The old lady muttered a few words, "I know, but no matter how busy I am, I don't believe that I have to go to work during the New Year?" It must be that his daughter-in-law refuses to come back, he came back two years ago, and his daughter-in-law just refuses to sleep at home, saying that the bed board is hard and uncomfortable to sleep, and there is a smell of chickens and ducks at home. I knew that in that case, I might as well let the second child marry a girl in the village, and it would be better than that woman! ”
Although mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, this is an eternal topic, but Mrs. Ji is not an unreasonable person, and she is very good to the daughters-in-law of the eldest and fourth and fifth families, but she is not very optimistic about the second family.
Fang Youlan is the highest among these daughters-in-law, her family is in the capital, and now she is also a government clerk. But it was precisely because of this that Fang Youlan would take Qiao in front of her, which made her very dissatisfied! Especially her granddaughter Weiwei, who rarely came back once during the Chinese New Year, but she disliked the dirty house, so she forced her second son to drive back to the capital at night, unwilling to live in the countryside.
These old ladies remember! People are old, but their memory is not old, although the other one of the second son's family is not born and raised in the family, but the old lady's feelings for her are better than that of her own granddaughter Weiwei.
The old lady fell into deep thought, and several adults didn't have the heart to eat, Ji Dazhi didn't have much thought, picked up two bowls of rice, and smacked his lips again: "I haven't seen the second brother's girl for several years, and I don't know what's going on now......"
"Didn't you say getting married? Last time, I heard Chunhong mention that it seems that the person who married is quite powerful. The old lady seemed to recall what her little daughter complained about in front of her, saying that the little girl married a good family, how arrogant she was, and she would be happy in the future.
Although the words are very sour, the old lady understands it, and she may want to live a good life in the future!
Ji Dazhi laughed, but he was also happy, the little girl he watched grow up, although he hadn't seen her for many years, but he really cared about it.
Ji Dazhi's son Ji Yuan is now sixteen years old, and obviously has no impression of his cousin, but his parents are quite concerned, so he is naturally curious: "Mom, what kind of person is that cousin?" I don't think I've seen it yet. ”
Ji Yuan is still a teenager in the voice change period, the male duck babbles, and Zhu Qiaoyan is also funny: "Your cousin also hugged you, but you definitely don't remember when you were a little old, she used to live in her hometown for a long time, and your father and I like her very much." ”
Why do you like it? Although Ji Xiaoli is not like Ji Xuewei's little white flower, she pretends to be pitiful when she meets people, but she treats people more sincerely, and because she has been in the orphanage for a while, many factors have prompted her to learn some truths, learn how to make people treat her, and learn how to please people.
Ji Xuewei doesn't need to learn these things, but she needs them. When she was young, she also helped the families to do some small things, and when she was young, she couldn't do big things, so she often went to the old family to help peel beans, help the old four families dry the quilts, and help the old five families pick vegetables and wash vegetables......
Sometimes precociousness is not a bad thing, because when you mature in your heart, you will think more, and you will be more sensible than your peers, which will make people feel a kind of distress unconsciously.
The eldest daughter-in-law couldn't help but echo when she heard this, "We haven't seen the second child's family for several years, and Wei Yatou is also away from the girl, although the girl is not born to the second child, but the human heart is flesh and blood, and the girl is sometimes really obedient and sensible, much better than Wei Yatou...... But this biological is not biological, we are all bystanders, what the second family thinks is serious! Didn't the second family treat her badly before? ”
"I remember! She was only fifteen or sixteen years old when she was from the girl, and the second family came back for the New Year, and the quilt at home was not enough, she prepared two quilts for Wei Yatou, and several quilts lined below, and finally only got a cover from the girl, and the following was a bed, and in the end it was not a very serious cold, but fortunately, the fourth child was at home, with medicine, and he didn't go to the hospital to get an injection! This was said by the daughter-in-law of the fourth family.
The fourth child is a doctor in the town, and having such a doctor at home is a lot of convenience.
Anyway, outside the words, everyone heard something, that is, the daughter-in-law of the second family looked at Si Swenwen on the surface, but she was stingy and not on the stage in her bones, and her own daughter was a human being! Adopted daughters are not human? In that case, why did you agree to adopt in the first place?
"Okay, don't talk about it, what's the use of talking about this now......" Old man Ji was a little annoyed, tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so you can't talk about something happy, you have to make a fuss?
To say that it was his decision to let the second child marry his daughter-in-law back then, how do he regret it now, and his sons and daughters-in-law brought out the topic, he always felt a little weak-hearted...... Although the other daughters-in-law are not as good as the second daughter-in-law and have a high status, they can please people and be filial to their work......
This thought made him even more depressed...... It's just that it's been so many years, and I can't return the goods.
Several people have their own thoughts, but the children are so old, saying these is just lying boring, after all, they can't really take care of the affairs of the second room...... After a short while, the village party secretary was strolling to the gate of the courtyard, and saw a large family of people sitting in the courtyard, yo sighed, and said with a smile: "Lao Ji, do you know that there are guests at home, or from the capital!" ”
The old branch secretary was gossiping with people at the entrance of the village just now, especially when he saw the particularly magnificent off-road military vehicle, he was taken aback, and then looked at the driver in a military uniform and asked where Ji Jiafang was, he was a little ......
Although the second child of the Ji family is a famous professor in the capital, why does he have anything to do with the people in the army? Although he is not a big official, he is also a little knowledgeable, especially looking at the eye-catching on the license plate, he understands a little.
The car is definitely a nobleman! The old Ji family is really capable!
So the village party secretary shook to the door of Ji's house, and the old man Ji was stunned for a long time, and put down his chopsticks: "From the capital?" No, the second family said that they would not come back for the New Year this year, and you also know my second child's ......."
Seeing that the old man was full of doubts, the village party secretary knew that it was not a fraud, so he only smiled and said: "The person should be here soon, but it's not the second family's, as for who it is, I don't know very well, it's just a military vehicle...... Oh yes, Dazhi, will people come to you? Are you the only one in this family who joined the army? ”
Ji Dazhi touched his head, to be honest, he really couldn't remember. After all, he is a lieutenant, and he sounds like an officer, but he is almost forty years old, and this little bit of a petty official is not enough to see in the capital, where the colonel-level ones are all big, who will come to see him at home?
Ji Dazhi didn't even hesitate, and shook his head: "It's unlikely, several comrades-in-arms who are familiar with me have returned to their hometown for the New Year, and I am not a big official, who will come to visit?" Could it be that the second brother's acquaintance in the capital happened to be passing by here and came to say hello? ”
The village party secretary stopped talking, which is indeed quite curious, at this time, in a large courtyard, old and young, all staring at the door with wide eyes, waiting for the appearance of the guests.
Who will it be?
Ji Yuan stood next to Ji Dazhi, and the handsome little guy smiled happily: "Dad, maybe it's really your leader, maybe you usually perform well, people come to see you, and it's nothing to condole and condole!" ”
Ji Dazhi snorted and touched his son's hedgehog head hard, "You kid can really think about it!" What should your father do in the army, and he didn't try to please those leaders, and seeing that I was honestly staying on the lieutenant for the rest of my life, I was not motivated, and the leaders came to my house, do you think it is possible? ”
Ji Dazhi participated in the flood fight in his early years, so he rose a little, and then he has been plain and insipid, and he thinks it's good.
Ji Yuan didn't speak anymore, stared at the off-road vehicle from far and near with a pair of eyes, smacked his lips and exclaimed: "What a cool car, it's really bullish, is this the ...... just said?"
Ji Xiaoli naturally didn't know that she was treated as a national treasure panda onlookers, she had just been woken up at this time, and she was still in a daze, stretched her waist, leaned on the body of the third master and closed her eyes to recuperate.
The military vehicle drove to the gate of the Ji family, and did not go in again, but Xiao Chen opened the window, smiled with a row of teeth, and looked at the old man Ji: "Old man, is this the Ji family?" ”
Old man Ji woke up like a dream, staring straight at the back seat with a pair of old eyes, and the old and young in the yard were the same, curious about who was sitting in the car and what they were doing at their house.
