After dressing like a fool, I exploded

Chapter 21 Zhou Family Ancestral Hall

Zhouwang Village.

Zhou's couple took their children to the village and first went to see Zhao Lanzhi at the eldest brother's house, and asked her to take a good look at Zhou Yunyi. When Zhou Yunyi was pulled by Zhao Lanzhi to rub his hands, he called grandma under Zhou Deyu's guidance, which made the old lady very happy .

No matter how she looked at it, Zhao Lanzhi felt that this little grandson was very good, he looked good and had a nice voice.

"Auspicious people have their own nature, so I said he must be fine. You were surprised at the time." When he said this, he glanced at Yin Qiuping with an impatient expression.

Yin Qiuping sat next to Zhou Deyu with a slightly embarrassed expression. The last time she saw her mother-in-law was when she came back to pay New Year's greetings last year. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were at odds, but Yin Qiuping didn't have the guts to confront her mother-in-law, let alone Zhou Deyu would beat her up for it. Well, maybe the three brothers of the Zhou family vented their anger for their mother together, but she didn't dare, and she thought ten thousand times in her heart, when will this old witch burp.

Zhao Lanzhi looked at the sky outside, estimated the time and said, "Go and fulfill your vows first, and then come back to eat after fulfilling your vows. This time, we will eat at your second brother's house. I heard from your sister-in-law that Yunya is back this week."

Zhou Deyu said strangely: "Yunya is back, so we have to see him well."

Zhou Yunya is the son of Zhou Deyu's second brother. He goes to high school in the city and studies well. Anyway, he can get a certificate every semester. The second brother and the second sister-in-law have high hopes for this child, and the child's living expenses are more than others.

At this time, 12 yuan a week, 48 yuan a month, there will be a surplus if you use it carefully, but Zhou Dehong and Chen Yu give their son 50 yuan a month, let him eat well, don’t save, for fear that the child will be too frugal, which will not be conducive to learning. , this is the time to work hard and grow your body, especially for boys who eat too much and can't get enough if they eat too little. Can they read books?

However, relying on Zhou Dehong to farm and help others, the tuition and living expenses alone are enough for the couple to worry about. A few years ago, the couple used most of their savings to build a two-story building on the side of the road, and they were not well off. , but fortunately, the eldest daughter went to other places to work two years ago, so the son's high school expenses can be covered, and the family is much more relaxed.

After doing homework at the boss's place, Zhou Deyu hurriedly took his wife and children to the temple to worship the gods and fulfill their vows, and then went to the Zhou family ancestral hall after returning from the temple.

The Zhou family is a large family with a ancestral hall and a family tree, but there are rules. The family tree only records males. Not only that, female members of the clan are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall to worship, so after returning from the temple, Yin Qiuping went to the second brother and second sister-in-law's house to help prepare lunch. Zhou Deyu Take Zhou Yunyi to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors.

It was the first time for Zhou Yunyi to come here, the inside was dark, only two kerosene lamps were lit, and there were many memorial tablets. Zhou Yunyi actually didn't want to worship, but he had already made up his mind to face all this well, so that he wouldn't be like before. He kept pouting and refused to change, so he knelt down on the mat obediently under Zhou Deyu's instruction, kowtowed, then took the incense and put it in the incense burner.

Zhou Deyu also knelt beside him holding incense, chanting with his eyes closed.

"The ancestors of the Zhou family, because the child is still young, must bless him to grow up healthy, and don't let my branch be broken here." After speaking, he kowtowed three times, looking more sincere than Zhou Yunyi. Use more force.

Zhou Yunyi didn't say anything, and when he came out of the ancestral hall, it was almost time for lunch. Disgusted by Zhou Yunyi's slow walking, Zhou Deyu carried him to his second brother Zhou Dehong's house, fearing that everyone would wait for him.

When we arrived at Zhou Dehong's house, many dishes were already on the table.

The adults were talking in the main room, and after Zhou Yunya greeted her uncle Zhou Deyu, she went to the kitchen to tell the busy women inside.

"Auntie, mother, my uncle has returned from the ancestral hall, and he can serve the rest of the dishes." While talking, he reached out and took a piece of fried fish, and he threw the fish twice before taking it back to his hand when it was so hot .

While burning firewood, Chen Yu replied to his son, "Okay, I got it, don't steal it, put the bowls and chopsticks in order, we'll fry the leftover vegetables and serve them before we can eat them."

After Zhou Yunya went out with the fish, Chen Yu said to his sister-in-law and sister-in-law, "Like a child who can't grow up."

Sun Xiaomei was chopping vegetables beside her and said, "It's like this at this age."

Yin Qiuping sat beside her and chose vegetables, and said enviously, "I really hope that my family, Yunyi, can grow so big in the blink of an eye."

The three get along fairly well.

As usual, there are two tables for meals, one for men and one for women.

When the men meet at the table, they must drink. The eldest brother Zhou Deming talks about the marriage of the eldest son at the dinner table. Zhou Dehong talks about his son doing well in school with a proud tone. There is nothing worth mentioning about such a thing, I just hope that this child will have a great future in the future.

Zhou Dehong has always been very proud of his son's success in studying. He patted his younger brother on the shoulder while talking and said, "You have to train Yun Yi well. I understand. I have worked in other places with your second sister-in-law before. We all sit in the office. Your second sister-in-law and I sweat profusely in the factory every day. We are so tired that we only get that little salary. The people sitting in the office are paid several times more than us while drinking tea and blowing the wind. Knowing that academic qualifications are very important, I must let Yunya go to a university, and I will also sit in an office in the future."

Compared with adults, Zhou Yunyi’s appetite is not so big. After he was full, he went to Zhou Dehong’s house to watch. He found a large photo frame hanging on the wall, and there were some photos in it. Most of them were black and white photos, and a few had two color photos. The photo was taken by a girl standing in some scenic area. Zhou Yunya, who came over, found that the younger brother had been looking at her sister, eating chicken legs and said to Zhou Yunyi: "You don't know her, she is my sister, your cousin .”

Zhou Yunyi looked at the smile on the girl's photo and asked, "What's her name?"

Zhou Yunya said: "My name is Zhou Xiulin, Xiuli's Xiu, Linlang's Lin, you can call her Sister Linlin, she works in Dongguan, an electronics factory." He is still very clear about his sister.

Zhao Lanzhi glanced at the two grandsons inside and said to Chen Yu next to him, "Look, the two brothers have chatted. Although they don't see each other often, they are still from the old Zhou's family." A picture of brothers and sisters.

Chen Yu picked up a piece of chicken for Zhao Lanzhi and said, "Mom, you eat this, the meat is very tender, let the two little ones play by themselves."

Sun Xiaomei glanced at the two brothers and said, "Don't talk about it, this kid has talked a lot since he recovered."

Zhao Lanzhi said: "It must be that the dirty things were pestering the children before, and now they are cleaned up by the sorceress, so it will return to normal. My little grandson is normal at first, and I don't know who brought it to the unclean place and tossed it so much." A long time." Meaningfully.

Yin Qiuping ate in silence without interrupting, for fear of offending Zhao Lanzhi.

Chen Yu's personality was more tactful, everyone offered food and advised them to eat, and the atmosphere did not cool down because of Zhao Lanzhi's words.

Chen Yu asked a lot while eating.

"Qiuping, why didn't you bring Xiaoyu back? Alas, my eldest daughter is not here, so I always panic. Once this child leaves home, it's time to get married when she comes back." Looking at the age, Chen Yu felt quite uncomfortable.

Yin Qiuping said: "Let her stay at home to watch the door, and there is no place for her to sit."

Thinking of the bicycle, Chen Yu nodded and said, "That's true." In fact, he wanted to bring it back, one sat in the front, and the other followed in his arms.

Zhou Yunyi knew that Zhou Dehong's family had two children, and his daughter was working in other places, but he didn't know what she looked like. Now that she saw the photo, she found that the girl didn't look very old in the photo. Immature, at this age should be in school.

Zhou Yunyi glanced at Zhou Yunya and said, "Are you in high school?"

Zhou Yunya said: "Yes, I am a sophomore in high school, and I will be a senior in high school next year."

Regarding this cousin, Zhou Yunya also heard intermittently from his family about what happened during this period. When he saw this cousin before, the cousin was so stupid that he couldn't recognize anyone, and he couldn't say that he had any feelings if he didn't interact with him. More I was curious, but now I didn't expect this cousin to look better the longer he grows, and he speaks so clearly, looking very cute.

After Zhou Yunya finished eating the chicken legs, he washed his hands and said to Zhou Yunyi who was in the house, "Would you like to go out with me and pick some fruits for you, and bring them back when the time comes." This was the job his mother had just arranged for him.

Zhou Yunya seemed to be easy to get along with, but he was actually the smartest and smartest among his cousins. His temperament was very much like Chen Yu. He looked like a good brother at the moment, but when he was outside under the fruit tree, He lied to Zhou Yunyi and sent him to the top. He wanted to frighten this cousin, making him think that he couldn't get down, and that this cousin didn't care about him.

"Okay, I'm leaving, you can stay up there alone." Zhou Yunya sent Zhou Yunyi up on the excuse that it would be more convenient for me to help you up the tree to pick fruits because you are small.

But he didn't know that Zhou Yunyi wasn't really a child, so he didn't cry and yell not to leave because of his words, afraid or something, he calmly looked at the smiling Zhou Yunya for a while, and didn't move.

Zhou Yunya originally wanted to see the child crying, and stretched out his hands anxiously to let him hug something, but his younger brother looked calm, which made him a little bored and embarrassed, touched his nose and said, "I'm really gone, don't cry .”

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Yunyi slowly slid down from the tree trunk by himself.

Seeing that Zhou Yunyi, who came down from the tree, was about to leave, Zhou Yunya immediately pulled his clothes and said, "Brother was just teasing you. I'll go up and pick them myself. You can just pick them up underneath with the basket."

Zhou Yunyi was not angry at all. He picked up the small basket on the ground and looked at Zhou Yunya who had climbed up the tree nimbly as soon as the words fell. Their family grows some loquats in Hepo, which is close to home, so you can come and pick them whenever you want to eat them. In addition to winter fruits, lychee, longan and grapefruit are also harvested in summer and autumn.

In fact, looking at it this way, although this place is said to be backward, there is not much shortage of supplies, at least there is still a lot of food.
