Propose a hundred times

It is rare to see a thin layer of snowflakes flying all night. In the early morning, the ground is covered with light white, and the sunlight pours down to create halos. The scene is really impressive.

In the east wing of Yuan's house, the newlyweds got up one after another not long after waking up.There are too many things to do today, so I don't have time to stay in bed.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it is necessary to worship the gods in the hall at home. Those who have the conditions will still kill a chicken.There is no suspense for the conditional Yuan Jiazi.Early in the morning, Yuan Shi got up and went to the kitchen to boil a pot full of water, waiting for everyone to get up and wash, so she could boil the water and prepare to kill the chicken.

The two young men behaved quite well in front of their mothers, went to the kitchen to fetch hot water and returned to the house to wash, and then went about their business.Qiuyue went to help her mother light the fire, and Shaoan carried a load of water, stepped on the thin snow against the cold wind, and headed to the other side of the pigsty.

What a weather!

Even though I went there personally last night, Shaoan was still not at ease. After all, the piglets are small, and the winter is cold day by day, so if you don't toss them, it also tosses her heart.

There will be more people in the family, and the expenses will always be higher in the future. If the piglets can't be raised well, and they will be folded one by one, then what will happen this year, and it's only the first day of the new year.

Thinking silently, with his thoughts separated, Shaoan didn't feel cold or sinking for a while, and he arrived at the pigsty after a while, went into the kitchen to put down his burden, and hurriedly turned around and went to the pigsty.

Fortunately, the situation is more optimistic.The big guys woke up and woke up, pulling and pulling, and the fat heads and big ears were all full of energy.Look at the little ones again, some lie down in front of the sows to suckle, some sleep soundly in twos and threes huddled together, only the layer of straw that was laid on last night has been firmly pressed.

"Stinky little pig, it seems that there is nothing wrong with being so energetic, it made me worry all night, cut it!"

Shao'an was happy, rubbed his hands and went out to the kitchen, muttering in his mouth: I will feed you early today, and then I will lead my daughter-in-law back to her mother's house!

On the other side, Qiuyue has taken over her mother-in-law's work and helped to light the fire, while her mother-in-law went to the chicken coop to catch the chickens, cut their throats to let the blood out, and boiled water to scald the chickens.Qiuyue also went to help when she was free. The two quickly plucked the hair with their hands and feet, and cleaned it up and put it in the pot in a short time.

Finally having some free time, Yuan Shi spoke up: "Yue'er, the chicken and meat for the two of you to return home today are ready, and you will ask An'er to seal a few more lai sees later. You two are already adults after getting married. I want to give annual benefits to my younger siblings."

Qiuyue nodded when she heard the words: "Yes, neither of us thought of this, it's my mother who thought it through!"

"Well, wait until the chicken is cooked and pay homage to you two in the living room before going out. Come back after having lunch there. Today is also the first day of the new year. It's better to eat at home at night."

"Oh, it's worth it."

Half an hour later, everything was ready, the chicken and pork were served on the table, Shaoan also fed the pigs and came back, and the family worshiped the gods in the hall, and it was considered that they had completed an important step on the first day of the new year.

After packing properly, Shaoan and Qiuyue tidied up, put on new clothes, tidied up their appearance, carried their belongings, set off at Sishi, and returned home.

It is rare for the first day of the new year to collide with the back door of the Three Dynasties. If you put together so many lively and festive things, it will become a double happiness, a great joy.The young couple loves the festive atmosphere. It would be perfect if the sky could be a little warmer.

But no, the snow that fell last night, the sun began to thaw this morning, the biting cold accompanied by the howling wind knife, as cruel as killing people.Yuan Shaoan was wrapped in a thick cotton coat and stepped on thick boots, with a chicken in his left hand and a duck in his right hand. The vegetable basket on his shoulder was filled with a piece of meat and full of fructose snacks. He walked behind his wife , shrank his neck from time to time, shook his voice and screamed,

"Yeah...it's so cold...I'm freezing to death..."

"..."

Geng Qiuyue, who was acting as a windshield in front, felt ashamed and couldn't help rolling her eyes frequently.Although she really didn't like to catch live chickens and ducks, she didn't like to use her body to fight Beifeng head-on.Think of her as Jiao Didi, a girl's family, er, a young woman, who wants to shelter her butcher's sissy from the wind and rain and hold up half the sky!

However, this dead man was so swearing at the beginning, he kept saying that the baby would not let her suffer, but now it's just that the wind is getting stronger and the weather is getting colder, so he refuses to walk ahead against the wind, insisting that she hold an umbrella in front of her. wind!

"Yuan Shao'an, shut up! You're so embarrassing!" What about the prestige of the night before last night?

However, the dead person is not worth mentioning to Yuan, and she always expresses the mood that needs to be released most in her unique way: "It's really cold, it's snowing this year, don't you feel it! Oh, you used to be so fat, you probably couldn't understand the pain of our skinny people..."

"Yuan Shaoan, call me fat again!"

Displeased, Geng Qiuyue was very displeased, so she simply put away her umbrella, turned around and slapped the bastard's butt, and when the other party was howling even more, she curled her lips and poohed, opened the umbrella and strode forward .

Yuan Shao'an is dead!You have to freeze to death!

"Acridine—don't! Good wife, wait for me! You're murdering your own husband!"

"Hey! Are you a husband?"

"No, you are, I'm your wife. But you don't love your wife at all. Marrying someone like you will make me regret it!"

"Go away, don't squeeze in..."

Fighting and playing tricks, the two finally arrived at Geng's house.For them, this home has undergone a great sensory change.One changed from going to the future father-in-law's house to going to the old father-in-law's house, and the other changed from going home to returning to her mother's house.

"Father, mother, eldest brother-in-law, Qiutang, we are coming back to my mother's house!"

When he arrived at Geng's house, Yuan Shao'an changed his masculine manner, straightened up, carried things and entered the hospital side by side with Geng Qiuyue. His teeth chattered from the cold a moment ago, but now he has endured the biting chill and unconsciousness of his hands and feet. She was stiff and raised her voice to greet everyone in her natal family, trying to maintain her image as a good son-in-law.

"Hey, you're back! Yue'er An'er, come in!"

"Look, you two are so cold, your noses are red, come in and warm yourself."

All the relatives of the Geng family were already waiting in the living room. When they saw someone coming in, they hurriedly got up to welcome them out. Seeing that the two of them fell into the ice cave, their joy eased a little, and they hurriedly took the chicken from Shaoan's hand. The vegetable basket on the duck's body urged them to enter the hall to keep warm.

"Ah, let me see our married Yue'er! You, I haven't seen you for a few days, you miss your parents, and you talk about them in everyone's ears all day long!"

Geng Qiumei has been taking care of her body for several months, and now she is healed. She was wrapped up thickly in the winter, her face was rosy and energetic, and she deliberately teased her sister. Looking at her delicate and graceful appearance, she can tell that life is nourishing and happy. Feeling comforted, she looked at the brother-in-law again and nodded secretly: Yue'er married well.

Mrs. Geng sent Geng Qiutang to put the chickens and ducks into cages, and she went to the kitchen to put down the meat and put two sticks of firewood in the stove. Then she hurried out of the kitchen and returned to the living room to join the army of watching and teasing, together with her eldest daughter. , took the youngest daughter to take a good look, took care of the men to entertain the new son-in-law carefully, and dragged the newly married daughter-in-law back to the room for interrogation.

It's just that, their questions came one after another, simple ones, some deep ones, some subtle ones, some not, which really made Geng Qiuyue flustered and ashamed.

They asked: "How is it? How are the two elders of your husband's family treating you?"

She replied: "It's fine."

They asked: "How is it? Didn't the Yuan family give you all the daily housework? Do you want to feed the pigs and shovel shit?"

She replied: "No, I wasn't asked to do anything else, just burn the fire and pick vegetables... I've only been married for a few days, so it's not so easy that I can take care of everything, okay?"

They asked, "How is it, how does Shaoan treat you?"

She replied: "Okay, it will hurt people."

They asked again: "How much does it hurt? You two have a wedding night... Will he take it easy by paying close attention to your feelings? Or did you get hurt because of your impatience and carelessness?"

She replied: "..."

From her blushing pretty face, the other two got the answer, nodded in relief, and then asked: "Is his family urging you to have a baby? What did Shaoan say, how many babies do you plan to have?" indivual?"

Does she... answer or... not answer?

Outside the hall, the situation is similar or not.

Boss Geng had been the village head for a while, and he visited his neighbors one by one during the New Year's Eve. His aura was more refined, and a strong force was hidden under his kind face. He glanced up and down at his new son-in-law without showing any signs of expression. I applaud in my heart.

"An'er, hasn't Yue'er caused any trouble to Lao Geng's family in the past few days since her marriage? If so, you have to take care of it."

The coercion came out in the form of jokes, as shrewd as Yuan Shaoan didn't understand, he laughed, rubbed his hands and moved closer to the stove, and replied: "How can it be, Qiuyue may have done it, my father and mother like it very much." She always said that I was lucky to be able to marry such a good wife, hehe!"

Village Elder Geng was there, and he also laughed, agreeing with this statement in his heart: You kid just got shit luck!

Although there are still some depressed feelings of being a father and being robbed of his precious daughter, Boss Geng is Boss Geng after all, a person who can see into his eyes and the eyes of his second daughter. He felt relieved, and finally, as the parent of his natal family, he said,

"What are you talking about, you two are doing well, we old guys are the most at ease. Some things I shouldn't say, I will talk to you here, you are also married, and it is okay to focus on the family business in the future Remember to take good care of the family, Yue'er is sometimes very temperamental, and if you get angry, think about how she was spoiled by Lao Geng's family, so she won't be so unhappy."

In short: no matter what happens to my girl, you have to be pampered and not bullied.

Shaoan listened silently, and could not help but whisper in the depths of his heart: I have always been bullied by your girl, okay, I was just playing a rogue to take advantage...

It's a pity that I just thought about it, the old man is so earnest, so why don't he obediently continue?

"Yes, An'er has made a note, she must treat Yue'er well, and don't let her be wronged."

"That's right, Shao'an, we men should be responsible, and we can't let our daughter-in-law suffer!"

At this time, Zhang Shunde, who had been sitting for a long time without speaking, couldn't help but spoke. He was deeply moved and strongly agreed with this point of view.His interjection caused the old man who was sitting upright in the hall to tremble slightly, and squinted at him, his eyes seemed to say: My Qiumei suffered less for marrying you?

Men, who is not a little arrogant.It was a matter of dignity and face, no matter how honest Zhang Shunde was, he would still be hurt by his father-in-law's wink.In order to restore his dignity, and for the future of himself and Qiumei, Zhang Shunde made up his mind.

"Shaoan, what I told you last time was about killing pigs and selling pork. I discussed it with my parents, Qiumei, and everyone supported it. See if it's convenient for you, share it with me." Under this errand?"

The implication is: I am ready to enter the industry as a butcher, and your family happens to have pigs, and our two swords are invincible in the world!

Looking at the honest man with a firm attitude and high fighting spirit in front of him, Yuan Shaoan had a hard time refusing: "Okay brother-in-law, since you have determined to be a pork guy, I will definitely help you as far as I can.

"Success, they are all relatives of my own family, so don't be polite. In this way, my family will kill two pigs on the Lantern Festival on the first lunar month. You get up early and come here. I will let Uncle Yang and the others guide you to get familiar with it first, and then I will do it yourself next time." I'm going to kill pigs and sell meat, if you don't understand anything, just ask a few uncles, they are very nice."

It just so happens that the three butchers have always killed her pigs regularly, but one pig is too little for three people, and two pigs are too much, so one more person is just right. From now on, four people will kill two pigs each time, and each will sell half of them. Also good points, the most suitable.

Such an easy way to solve major livelihood issues shows how important it is to have reliable relatives.Zhang Shunde was extremely grateful. Since he was a child, his father did not love his mother or his mother, and after marrying a daughter-in-law, both of them were disgraced and miserable when they returned home.Fortunately, Yue's family is reliable, and he can live in peace temporarily, but after all, he is a son-in-law, and the longer he lives there, the more unhappy he feels.Now a reliable relative has added another door, which can lead him to the broad road of making a fortune, he is grateful, he is grateful.

So, he became excited, stretched out his hand without warning, and slapped the shoulder of the person next to him heavily with his big palm: "Thank you, Shao'an! You are such a good person!"

Yuan Shao'an's tender body trembled, obviously frightened by the slap and slap.And what frightened her even more was that her brother-in-law was overly excited, and immediately grabbed her hand after patting her shoulder, as if he couldn't express his heart full of gratitude otherwise.

Coincidentally, Zhang Shunde and Yuan Shao'an in this posture were spotted by Geng Qiuyue who was about to step into the hall door.

"What are you two doing?"

Qiuyue spoke before her feet fell, and her tone of voice contained seven points of bewilderment and three points of displeasure. A face that was flushed with shame just now has been wiped out by jealousy. Only she knows it. Cursed a hundred and ten sentences: Yuan Shaoan is a sissy, and she knows how to attract bees and butterflies every day!At this moment, even my brother-in-law is not spared!

Heh heh heh, the vinegar jar is not just for nothing.

The rest of the Geng family were not as petty as her, Geng Qiuyue. Aunt Geng and Geng Qiumei were only interested in the reason why Zhang Shunde and Yuan Shaoan made such a gesture, and after careful questioning, they nodded repeatedly.

"Well, I grew up in Shunde, work hard in the future, don't embarrass the old Geng family and the old Yuan family."

Aunt Geng had a good voice, and told the young man, she only hoped that her eldest daughter would soon be like the second daughter, settle down and have a good home, a real home of her own.

That being the case, Geng Qiuyue reluctantly suppressed her jealousy, and was sincerely happy for her sister and brother-in-law. She stepped into the living room, as if leaning close to the brazier to warm up, pushed her brother-in-law Zhang Shunde away, stepped on someone's instep, and smiled. Echoing: "It's a good job to kill pigs. Shao'an just told me yesterday that the price of meat has risen so much during the New Year's Eve. Brother-in-law should take advantage of this time to earn money!"

The mouth was crackling, and the feet were unambiguous, which gave Yuan a lot of color.That Yuan, who was cruelly repaired by the vinegar jar, smiled wryly and helplessly, who let them be in front of her father-in-law, in front of her father-in-law who had just given her a good reputation.

Not only do I have to be pampered...

For this matter, everyone felt that today could be regarded as another joy, and they should have a good meal to celebrate.Boss Geng stroked his beard, showed off his face and became happy, and shouted, commanding,

"Qiutang, Qiutang, go to your second uncle's house, call everyone over, say that your second sister and brother-in-law will come back three times, and let them have lunch here today."

Geng Qiutang, a poor young man, was always called on to run errands. Hearing this, he went out to the kitchen and reported: "Mother, the water is boiled and you can kill chickens." Saying that, he trotted out of the yard.

Geng's second family then arrived, and the hall of the Geng's house became lively immediately. Several women went to the kitchen. Qiufang couldn't bear curiosity, so she forced Qiuyue back to the room, and started bombarding her with inquiries.Poor Geng Qiuyue just finished coping with one wave, and another wave came.

"Tell me, tell me, how do you feel after getting married?"

There was no one else in the room, and Geng Qiufang didn't need to hide her excitement.Geng Qiuyue always knew everything about this cousin who hadn't left the court, and never hesitated to tease her. She stared at her with a smile, stared at her for a long while, but didn't answer, and instead asked back,

"What does it feel like to marry your sweetheart? You don't want to feel it yourself?"

The other party was stunned, and immediately burned the ears, smacked his lips and said, "I will naturally feel my feelings. Right now, I just want to know how you feel. Tell me quickly, does your husband hurt you so much!"

Now it was the turn of Geng Qiuyue, who was no longer the girl of Huang Hua, to feel ashamed, rolled her eyes, and did not deny it: "Well, that dead guy is too clingy, like brown sugar, you can't tear it apart..."
