Since the marriage of the three sisters, our family has suddenly changed from six to three.

To be honest, I was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but after a long time, I got used to it.

Our family of three had dinner, and after a busy year, our family of three finally got together in this small family again.

To be honest, at that time, I didn't think about buying a house in the city, nor did I think about buying a car.

I just wanted to renovate our old tiled house and get a wife, that's what I thought at the time.

Because at that time, our family really didn't have any money, and any buildings, cars, those were unattainable dreams.

When people are poor, they don't dare to talk about their dreams at all, because your basic life can't be maintained, so what's the use of talking about your dreams?

When people are poor, they don't think about big dreams, they just want to be fed and clothed, have no illness or disaster, and then live a peaceful day by day.

That's it, and they're satisfied.

Our family is at this level now, we don't dare to fantasize about being rich and rich, we just want to maintain our current life, so that we can live an ordinary life.

"Chu Tian, have you talked about a girlfriend this year?" My father took a sip of his wine, then put his glass down and asked me.

"Nope."

"You have to hurry up, you will be nineteen years old after the New Year, and you can already find a girlfriend."

"Got it, Dad!"

The next day, my father took the blue battery car out into the street and repaired it, and then bought a new red battery car.

This red battery car is a lap bigger than the blue battery car, but the price is about the same.

The blue battery car was bought in the county three years ago, and it cost two thousand two at that time, while the red battery car only cost two thousand six.

By the way, my father bought two red fish and ten catties of pork on the street, and bought a box of Yanghe Daqu and other things in a department store.

Although it is not a market today, many shops on the street are still open, but there are many fewer people shopping.

When I got home, my mother rode the red battery car around the village twice, and she said that the battery car was very easy to ride, and it was more stable than the blue battery car.

Mother said, "Tomorrow I will go to your grandmother's house to give gifts, and you will ride this new red battery car, and your father and I will ride the blue battery car." ”

"This red battery car is big, two people don't squeeze, you and my dad ride it, I'll just ride the blue battery car."

"That'll do fine."

The owner of the battery car is my elementary school teacher, his surname is Tang, and my grandmother has the same surname, and he and my father are aunts.

When I was in Tangwei Elementary School, he was my math teacher, and every time I didn't do my homework, he would twist my eyelids with his hand.

At that time, I was stupid and slower than everyone else, so I didn't get good grades at that time, especially in math.

The reasons why I often don't do my math homework are that I can't do many problems, and because I have to watch cartoons every day and don't have time to do them.

So he would call me to the pulpit every morning, and then come back in the evening with red and swollen eyelids.

Later, my mother noticed the abnormality of my eyelids, and he asked me what was wrong, so I told my mother the reason.

For this reason, my mother went to school to look for him once, and the next morning after my mother went to look for him, I still didn't do my math homework.

He didn't twist my eyelids this time, but called me to the podium with a pleasant face, and then said to everyone in the audience: "I declare that he will not have to do math homework from now on, and if you don't want to do math homework in the future, then you will let your parents tell me." ”

Since then, whether I do my math homework or not, he hasn't called me to the podium again.

People are like that sometimes, when someone else takes a step back, you have to take a step back, and then I start doing my math homework.

The next day, I went to my grandmother's house to give gifts, and I had wine and milk on my battery cart, and red fish and pork on my parents' battery cart.

The second uncle has been single all these years, and his grandmother has always followed him, so we send them to the second uncle's house every year when we give gifts.

Grandma said that the eldest uncle is full of children and grandchildren, so she doesn't have to worry about it, and the second uncle has no one to take care of her, so she wants to stay with the second uncle to take care of the second uncle.

For as long as I can remember, my grandmother's house doesn't seem to have changed much, it has always been three large tiled houses, two small tiled houses, and a large courtyard with brick walls.

The three large tiled houses are halls, and the two small tiled houses are kitchens, and little has changed except for the pomegranate tree in the yard that is missing.

Seeing us coming, my grandmother and second uncle hurriedly greeted us with a smile, and the second uncle said, "Come every time you come, why do you buy so many things?" ”

"These are all bought for my mother." Mother said with a smile as she carried her things into the nest.

"I'm old, I can't eat these things, it's not easy for you to make money, sell less in the future, don't waste money." Grandma said on crutches.

"Mother-in-law, I only buy it once a year, and it doesn't cost much." Father carried the wine and said with a smile.

"Don't buy this kind of wine next time, I won't drink this wine for a long time, this wine is not good, the next time you want to buy it, buy the blue classic." The second uncle looked at the wine in my father's hand and joked.

"I can't afford the blue classic, the price of that bottle is enough to buy this box, I usually drink this kind of wine, if you don't drink it, I'll take it back and drink it myself later."

"You've sent it all, I'll drink it, how bad it is for you to take it back. Besides, whoever gives the gift still has to take it back. ”

The second uncle took a few benches from the house and placed them under the eaves of the hall so that we could sit in the sun and bask in the sun.

Today's weather is very good, blue sky and white clouds, the sun is warm, and the two little milk dogs of the second uncle's family are running over to us and wagging their tails.

Their mother is the big white dog raised by the second uncle, but they look like two small cows, and I don't know if their father is a big black dog?

Their mother was wagging her tail at us in front of the kitchen door, leashed and looking at her two children with kind eyes.

My grandmother took out the peanuts and melon seeds from the house and let us eat them, and my mother and I grabbed a handful of melon seeds and swallowed them in our mouths.

My father said it was too dry and didn't want to eat it.

The father took out a cigarette and handed one to the second uncle, who took out a lighter and lit it for his father first, and then lit his own cigarette.

The two of them sat on a bench with Erlang's legs crossed and a cigarette in their hands, looking at the puppy in the yard, smoking and chatting.

My mother went to the kitchen to cook after a while, and my second uncle didn't know how to cook, so every time I came to my second uncle's house, we cooked by ourselves.

I sat next to my grandmother, who took my hand and asked, "Little God, your fifth aunt's family, will you come back for the New Year this year?" ”
