After the New Year.

New Year's Day.

Early in the morning, Xu's mother boiled a pot of rice balls, and each person also had a white egg, which meant that the circle was happy to welcome the new year.

After eating, Father Xu sat on the sofa and sighed, "We live a nourishing life, and your grandfather and the ancestors of the Xu family don't know if there is anyone to take care of them." ”

Xu Fugui knew that he was thinking about Xujia Village, and quipped: "Dad, tell you to listen to the news broadcast more often, people can't be resurrected after death, and there is no ghost talk, if you say it outside, others should doubt your ideological consciousness." ”

Father Xu's cloudy eyes glared, "Stinky boy, don't tell me these things that you don't have, don't think that you can go to heaven if you are a leader, Lao Tzu is still your father if he is not dead!" ”

Xu Fugui muttered: "It's still my father even if he's dead." ”

Xu's father was so angry that he was about to knock him with a cane, but Xu's mother stopped him, "Okay, what's the noise on the first day of the new year, let the neighbors see the joke." ”

"Besides, Fugui is not wrong, you are still his father when you die, and I have to come to see you several times a year and burn some paper money on it, so that you can live a good life below."

Father Xu was even more angry, "He's a stinky boy who is cursing me to death!" ”

"Don't talk about it all day long, it's unlucky, Fugui is such a filial person, how can he curse you to death?"

Xu Fugui crossed Erlang's legs, "It's not Dad, it's obvious that you said it first." ”

Father Xu snorted coldly, "You are the family, come together to talk about me." ”

"Fugui, no big or small, how can you talk to your father?" Jiazhen rarely has a straight face.

Xu Fugui immediately sat down obediently, showing a flattering smile to his daughter-in-law, and Jiazhen couldn't cry or laugh.

Father Xu smiled, "I still cherish my family." ”

When the farce ended, Father Xu sighed again, "Usually in the village, after eating, I have to read to sweep the tomb and hang paper, but now that I have come to the capital, I don't know if I will have the opportunity to see your grandfather again in this life." ”

Grandpa doesn't know if he wants to see you, a loser.

Xu Fugui thought in his heart, but he didn't say it, so as not to make his old man unhappy.

Lai Shun spoke at this time, "Master, if you want me to say that you are more worried, didn't you explain to the fifth brother and them before leaving, they will go to help us sweep the tomb and hang the paper." ”

Father Xu shook his head, "I don't know if others can remember it, besides, the tomb swept by outsiders, I don't know if the ancestors recognize it." ”

Xu Fugui didn't care, maybe he was reborn, he looked at life and death very lightly, not to mention the ancestors of the Xu family who didn't know how many years they had been dead.

At this time, he suddenly noticed that Jiazhen's expression was wrong, pulled her over, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

Jiazhen shook her head and said with a forced smile: "It's nothing, tomorrow will be the second day of the Lunar New Year." ”

"What happened on the second day of the Lunar New Year?" Xu Fugui first said a word, and then thought of the customs of Yunxi County, the second and third days of the Lunar New Year are generally the days when daughters-in-law go back to their parents' homes to visit.

Jiazhen, is this missing her father-in-law?

At this time, he suddenly patted himself, didn't his father-in-law give him a letter before he left Xiangjiang, and when he came back to hand over the task, he forgot about it.

But fortunately, I used this letter to relieve Jiazhen's sorrows.

He pulled Jiazhen into the room, and Jiazhen resisted in a low voice, "What are you doing, Lai Shun Cuiping is here, and you are not ashamed to enter the room in broad daylight." ”

Xu Fugui looked at him suspiciously, "What are you thinking, I'm just showing you something." ”

Then, an envelope appeared out of thin air in his hand, and Jiazhen was not surprised by this, but wondered what the contents of the envelope were.

Xu Fugui touched his nose and explained, "This is a letter from your father. ”

When Jia Zhen heard this, he immediately grabbed it, spread it out and looked at it seriously.

Xu Fuyu pulled her to sit on the bed, hugged her soft waist, smelled the faint fragrance on her body, and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Jiazhen's attention was all on the letter, ignoring his small movements, and as she watched, her smooth face slid through the bean-sized tears.

"Why are you still crying, what did Dad write?" Xu Fugui wiped away her tears with his sleeve.

Jiazhen shook her head, "I'm just happy, my father said in the letter that he is doing very well, and his business in Xiangjiang is doing very well." ”

Xu Fugui breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't worry, our father is so capable, and the others are definitely not his opponents, so it's all right." ”

Jiazhen read the letter and walked around the room, but she couldn't think of where it was hidden, and she had already cut off her relationship with Chen Liping on the surface.

If this is to let others know that they still have correspondence with Chen Liping, it is indispensable to have a fraudulent name.

After thinking about it, she still took the letter to Xu Fugui and asked him to keep it safe.

"By the way, Fugui, how did you get the letter from my father?" Jiazhen only reacted at this time and looked at him suspiciously.

Xu Fugui sneered, "Didn't I go on a mission, I just happened to run into our father." ”

"You're going to Xiangjiang on a mission? No wonder you've been going for so long, your leaders are too different things, let you run so far away, what if something happens? ”

Jiazhen looked anxious, Xu Fugui didn't dare to say too much, if she knew that she had gone around San Francisco, she probably thought she was making her laugh.

Jiazhen was worried for a while, and then said: "Fugui, if the leader asks you to perform any tasks in the future, you can learn to be smarter." ”

Xu Fugui put her on his lap, felt the softness of her buttocks, and hurriedly promised that he would never take on such a dangerous task in the future.

Jiazhen put her arms around his neck and looked at him seriously, "Did you really see my father?" How is he doing, is it the same as it was written in the letter? ”

Xu Fugui nodded and explained Chen Liping's situation in detail, including the scale of Chen Ji Restaurant, monthly income, the size of the rental house, and so on.

As he spoke, he remembered that there were a lot of photos in his space, and found some photos of Xiangjiang, and Jiazhen looked at them carefully one by one.

Looking at Chen Liping in a suit and leather shoes, she couldn't help laughing, it seemed that her father's life was really good, so she was also relieved.

At that time, I heard how dangerous it was to smuggle to Xiangjiang, and I was worried about it all the time, but now after knowing the news, the big stone in my heart has finally fallen.

After looking at the photos, Jiazhen realized that the two of them had been in the room for a long time, and hurriedly went out with a red face, maybe what the rest of the family was thinking.

There is no need to sweep the grave, the family simply goes out and chats with the neighbors, a group of men, a group of old people, a group of women, a group of children, each playing their own thing.

The men gathered around a few tables to play cards, and the amount of money played was very small, Xu Fugui was afraid that the family would think too much, so he just stood by and watched.
