"I won't pick the gift your grandmother gave you!" Hua Ronghua shook his head, and it wasn't specially given to himself, what is there to pick? But then he looked at the two baskets of fruit and pointed at them and said, "But I want to eat your fruit!" ”

Gong Xichu smiled and pinched the obvious increase in meat on her face, "You can eat everything you like!" ”

"Hey, don't pinch me, it hurts!" Hua Ronghua rubbed his face dissatisfied, and then asked with some worry: "Am I fat?" ”

"It's okay, I'll help you do sports at night!"

Hua Ronghua's face flushed, everyone knew what kind of exercise he was talking about!

Gong Xichu grabbed a handful of silver tickets from the box containing the silver tickets and stuffed them into her arms, "This is for you, grandmother gave it, you can buy whatever you want!" ”

"I don't want it, this is the silver ticket your grandmother gave you!" Hua Ronghua refused, but his eyes were a little reluctant to stare at the silver ticket that was stuffed back by himself.

Scold...... Gong Xichu felt funny, this woman can take it if she wants, but she still has to be reckless.

"Mine isn't yours!" Gong Xichu stuffed the silver ticket into the woman's arms and rubbed the oil along the way.

Hua Ronghua was holding the silver ticket in his arms, and he didn't know whether to throw the silver ticket back or hit his oil-rubbing hand for a while.

Seeing that the male and female hosts were no longer talking, the nurse came over and asked with a smile, "Son, the old lady has sent New Year's goods, do we also have to send something to the capital?" As he spoke, he glanced at Hua Ronghua, and said in his heart, this matter should have been done by the hostess, but since the old lady did not specially give Mrs. a New Year's gift, she didn't recognize Mrs., so naturally she didn't need to prepare for the New Year's gift.

Gongxi Chu was stunned, preparing for the New Year's ceremony? He didn't do this kind of thing, in the army before, at most he wrote a few letters with his grandmother, and then gave the reward to his grandmother to take back, and then returned to the capital and stayed only half a year before coming to Anping County, last year his grandmother also sent him a gift, but he didn't prepare anything, after listening to the nurse say this, he felt as if he really didn't give his grandmother any New Year's gift, he couldn't help but look at Hua Ronghua on the side.

"Actually, usually during the New Year's holiday, you should prepare a gift for your relatives and elders at home, you don't even know this, right?" Hua Ronghua couldn't even nibble on the fruit, and this man was too strange.

"I, I only received red envelopes during the Chinese New Year before." He was the youngest generation of Bofu, and he followed Yuan Shuai to the battlefield early, and he rarely experienced these things.

"Uh......" Hua Ronghua blinked a little stunned, didn't he say that the ancients paid attention to etiquette and rules? She saw that Gong Xichu was still staring at her, and after thinking about it, she asked her to help come up with an idea, so she said, "It's good that your grandmother can help her go to the capital with whatever she likes." ”

Gongxi Chu was stunned, "I don't know what grandmother likes." "I remember when I was a child, my grandmother was in the Buddha hall most of the time, and the affairs of the house were rarely managed, all of which were managed by my grandmother, even if it was the New Year, my grandmother rarely went out of the Buddhist hall, and when my grandmother began to manage the affairs of the house, he soon went to the battlefield, and I naturally knew very little about my grandmother, I only knew that he had a grandmother who would give himself gifts every New Year's Day.

This time it was Hua Ronghua's turn to be stupid, and after thinking about it, he thought about it and said, "Then just pick something that the elderly like, it's more or less a heart." ”

"Okay." Gong Xichu nodded, hugged the person into his arms and said with a smile: "It's all up to Mrs. to arrange!" ”

Huh? How could she be allowed to arrange it? Hua Ronghua pointed at himself with his finger, still a little disbelieving, and then asked with some flinching: "Me?" Can't you? I don't know what your grandmother likes! ”

"It's okay, it's good to have a heart like you said!" Gongxi Chu thought to himself, when the time comes, he will write to his grandmother again, and if he thinks about it, his grandmother can also have a good impression of Hua Ronghua!

The nurse looked at the husband and wife who had entered the room with a lot of discussion, opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she didn't speak. Although she didn't think that the old lady would have any changes to this lady, but since it was decided by the master, it was better for her to intervene less, didn't she see that the pearl had been completely disgusted by the master!

Hua Ronghua was really embarrassed for a while when she prepared the old lady for the New Year's gift, she was an old lady in Bofu, what had she never seen? Is there anything in this county town that can make her feel bright? Later, he simply did what Gong Xichu said, just do his best.

In the end, Gong Xichu was stunned when he looked at Hua Ronghua's intentions, and pointed to a few packages neatly placed on the table, "This, this is the New Year's gift you are talking about?" ”

Hua Ronghua was also a little lacking in confidence, but he still pointed to them and explained: "This is the rabbit we beat when we went back to Zhuangzi last few times, I made a pair of slippers from the rabbit skin, and I just happened to wear them in the house; This is a jerky marinated in wild boar meat that you beat, both salty and spicy; This bag is a mushroom fungus sent by the people in the mountain village in autumn, and I picked a good bag of it; Also, I packed a basket of strawberries and corn from the ice cellar, but it was best to transport them with ice when they were transported, so as not to wait until the place spoiled again. ”

Gongxi Chuxin said, I let you do your best, you are really just a heart, even if you make a dress for your grandmother! But when I thought about the kind of clothes that Hua Ronghua was good at, the words that came to her mouth still didn't come out, in case she really made that kind of clothes and sent them, I was afraid that my grandmother would be annoyed with her.

However, he picked up the slippers made of gray rabbit fur in his bag and looked at them repeatedly, and then raised his eyes to look at Hua Ronghua, "When did you make this thing?" ”

"Uh......" Hua Ronghua was a little embarrassed, so he said indifferently: "It's when you put the leather nitrate and let me put it away, I think about it, I plan to make you a pair of slippers!" But since I'm giving it a New Year's gift, I'll give it to your grandmother, although it's a lot bigger, but it's worn indoors, and it doesn't matter if you put a pair of mats in it. ”

It turned out to be for myself! The corners of Gong Xichu's mouth curled involuntarily, and then he looked at the shoes with some pity, since they were for his grandmother, it was better to send them to the capital, but, "Madam, there should still be rabbit skins, right?" ”

"Yes......" Hua Ronghua looked at the corners of Gongxi Chu's mouth full of smiles and asked hesitantly, "You don't still want me to make you a pair, do you?" ”

"Madame really won my heart!" Gong Xichu directly pulled the person into his arms and kissed him fiercely on the face.

Hua Ronghua was still a little embarrassed, pushed him away and twisted his body, "Don't make trouble, there is really something I almost forgot now!" ”

"What's the matter?"

"Selling strawberries! I almost forgot the strawberries and corn in the ice cellar! Hua Ronghua's eyes lit up, "I still point to it and make a lot of money!" ”

Gongxi Chu didn't take it seriously here at all, how much money could that thing sell for? Besides, "Don't you have apples and pears at home?" If you want something else, tell me, I'll get it! ”

Hua Ronghua looked up at him, "Hey, what you want to eat and what you want to make money are two different things, okay?" ”

"Didn't I give you a silver ticket? What else do you want to make? ”

"Hey, don't talk nonsense, you just say, can you help me?" Hua Ronghua was annoyed, pointed to Gongxi Chu and asked.

Helpless, Gong Xichu nodded, "Help, I'm your man, who will I help if I don't help you?" ”

Hua Ronghua smiled at this time, "Okay, you can help me ask which pastry shop or restaurant can also help us sell strawberries." Speaking of this, seeing Gong Xichu, he looked uninterested and said, "If you tell me which one it is, I'll go." ”

"You're going?" Gong Xichu raised his eyebrows, "No need, I'll just go, and what price are you going to set?" ”

Don't need her to go? This man is machismo, right? But forget it, he is willing to help himself ask, as for the price......

"How about you say that a one-story wooden box sells for thirty wen? Well, it's not suitable, you have to give others the cost of consignment, it seems that you can't make much, or it's fifty yuan, and the two-layer strawberry sells for eighty yuan, sell it for a few days and see, if it doesn't work, then reduce the price! ”

Gong Xichu glanced at her disdainfully, "You've been arguing to sell strawberries since the summer, but you haven't even set the price yet?" ”

"No, the point is that you don't sell strawberries this winter! I can't even see a single fruit in winter, and the apples and pears are still from all the way to the capital, and the strawberries in the summer are not worth anything at all, so I didn't make a few pennies at that price! ”

"Alright, okay, leave it to me."

"Yes, I really deserve to be my father-in-law, the most capable!" Hua Ronghua praised him with a smile.

Gong Xichu knocked on the door of her head, "Are you praising me or yourself?" ”

"All praise, all praise!"

Hua Ronghua entrusted the strawberry matter to Gongxi Chu, and he concentrated on watching the excitement of the Lu family.

The Lu family is now in dire straits, originally had more than enough to do it for the county government to do a job not long before they encountered a vacancy to catch fast, Ding Dian's stubble and Gongxi Chu's secret action, there was more than a penny to sit in the position of catching fast, and became the second person in the Lu family to work in the county government with a formal income, originally this was a good thing, but because of Mrs. Lu's selfishness, coupled with the increasing dissatisfaction of the three pillars' daughter-in-law, the contradictions of the Lu family became deeper and deeper.

The conflict finally broke out because Sanzhu's daughter-in-law proposed to move out and rent a house to live, saying that it was more convenient to entertain colleagues. Mrs. Lu refused to do so, and when she opened her mouth, she scolded the Sanzhuzi family for being ungrateful, and lived in her house for nothing for a whole year, and now that she had a good place to go, she left her grandmother to enjoy the happiness alone.

Where is Sanzhu's daughter-in-law willing to accept such accusations in vain? directly defended that her husband and son gave Mrs. Lu the money for collecting firewood and doing odd jobs all year round, and she helped work in the shop for a year, and she did not receive a penny's salary.

Mrs. Lu is an unreasonable person who stirs up three points, how can she still get off the stage if she lets her adopted son and daughter-in-law collide like this? directly beat and scolded a lot, and almost everyone in the entire alley knew about it, and it wasn't until Lu Wenping went home that the matter came to an end.

In Lu Wenping's view, this matter is perfectly solved, leaving half of the salary for his own use, and the brother's family does not have to move out of the house, so that the brother and nephew do not have to bear the name of unfilial piety, and the mother will no longer make trouble because of the money.

But can things really go so smoothly? First of all, the daughter-in-law of the three pillars held her stomach, she was already aggrieved enough to send people to do day work under the fence, her family worked hard for a year, and she didn't save a penny, not to mention being said to be eating white rice, no one can accept it! What's more, now, his son has finally met a nobleman, do you want him to continue to be aggrieved at the hands of Mrs. Lu for the rest of his life?

Sanzhu's daughter-in-law began to resist, originally she did all the housework of the Lu family, but now she doesn't do any work at home except for following Mrs. Lu to the shop every day. So, when I returned home, I always heard the Lu family arguing and scolding around who was cooking and who was doing the laundry.

Mrs. Lu cursed the family for 'eating rice', but Sanzhu's daughter-in-law turned a deaf ear, went directly to her house and bolted the door, and never came out until dinner. Whenever it was Luluo who came to calm the incident at this time, she always persuaded her mother-in-law on the grounds that her sister-in-law was really tired after a busy day, tolerated the eldest sister-in-law who had a small temper, and then gently asked Jiang Lan to do the housework.

The virtuous appearance not only made Lu Wenping look at her differently, Mrs. Lu was satisfied, and even the people in the alley had a much better impression of her.
