810: Dog Food

Xu Zhou also pasted two pieces of wealth on his wall, then looked at the time, washed his hands and prepared to make lunch.

Spicy chicken diced with braised pork, steamed pork ribs with rice noodles, vinegar and fat intestines, sweet and sour fish, fried eggs with leeks...

Xuzhou cooked eight dishes in one go, which can be said to be very sumptuous. The children have been waiting for this lunch and the New Year’s money tomorrow morning.

No matter how ordinary the family is, they will try to make today's meals more abundant. They will comfort the family who have worked hard for the year, and at the same time, they will also have a good expectation for the coming year.

The children were full and drunk, and ran to the village. After Xuzhou and his family ate, Zhou Hongmei was busy preparing the ingredients for making dumplings at night, while Xu Lin spoke with the old lady. As for Xu Jianguo, he walked out with his hands on his back.

Xu Zhou and Du Baoxiu were basking in the sun upstairs. Standing in front of the window, you could see the children chasing and salvaging. They could not hear anything, but they felt inexplicably happy.

"Dad said the weather forecast shows that it will snow today!" After looking at it for a while, Du Baoxiu withdrew her gaze and said to Xu Zhou.

"Let's go!" Xu Zhou felt that nothing was wrong. Anyway, he didn't have to accompany his wife to his parents' home on the second day of the Chinese New Year. No matter how heavy the snow falls, it would not affect him. Besides, the auspicious snow indicates a good harvest. It is the time to fall again, which means that the next year will definitely be a year of great harvest.

Du Baoxiu glanced at him and saw that he really didn't care at all. He couldn't help but smile. Then, he happily reminded him, "Did you forget to go to the county town to get the rice cooker? How do you go when it snows heavily?"

"..." Ouch, I forgot such an important thing after having lunch! Xu Zhou thought for a while and said, "It's okay, I can catch it when I go to get it in the morning of the second day of the New Year! Besides, today's weather doesn't look like it snows!"

However, unlike the snowy weather, snowflakes float in the evening. Not only does it stop after a while, it tends to get bigger and bigger.

In the evening, the family gathered together to make dumplings. Xuzhou washed a few dried red dates and asked Zhou Hongmei and the others to wrap them in. They used dried red dates instead of coins. The reason why they did was that they were afraid that the coins would collapse into her wife's teeth.

After hearing Xu Zhou's words, Zhou Hongmei was too lazy to pay attention to him. The whole family was your wife Jingui!

Well, it’s not that Zhou Hongmei doesn’t love Du Baoxiu, but that she really can’t stand her son’s terrible appearance.

Besides, if you have so many packages, your wife can eat it, but others can’t eat it? Just care about your wife’s teeth, and can’t care about others?

Facts proved that Xu Zhou's concerns were still very reasonable. He had a total of six dates, three of which were eaten by Du Baoxiu, and the other three, one was eaten by Xu Lin, one was eaten by Xu Jianguo, and the other was eaten by the old lady.

The whole family, Zhou Hongmei and Xu Zhou didn't get it.

"It's okay, I'm going to eat the same as you did! Mine is all yours!" Xu Jianguo said quickly when he saw Zhou Hongmei's speechless look.

When the family heard this, they were all surprised. It turned out that, especially the younger generations, their father was the master of love words. How sincere is this?

On the last day of the year, Xu Jianguo stuffed them a mouthful of dog food.

Xu Jianguo realized it and couldn't help but blush.

As for Zhou Hongmei, who was still a little dissatisfied, she silently closed her mouth.

After eating dumplings, the whole family watched the Spring Festival Gala together. After watching it for a while, Du Baoxiu became a little sleepy and was led upstairs by Xu Zhou. The snow outside was still floating like goose feathers, but even such heavy snow did not affect the children's fun. After twelve o'clock, the villagers got up one after another to set off firecrackers.

At the same time, the children who finally survived the time and could move finally set off, knocking from door to door to scatter the God of Wealth, one or two cents, one or two cents. Of course, some people ignore the door no matter how you knock. Some people will give you more children when they see that there are fewer children coming.

Xu Jianguo had the opportunity to sleep that night. He had just sent off a wave of children and welcomed another wave, but in the end he simply stopped sleeping.

Sitting at the head of the bed, reading a book, waiting for the guests to come to the door.

Du Baoxiu slept very deeply. At only twelve o'clock, she was woken up by the sound of firecrackers nearby. Then she fell asleep deeply, and she didn't even hear the noise of the children downstairs.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the snow was already falling, not as big as last night, with only scattered small snowflakes floating. This day, people spent the New Year greetings.

At night, the snow finally stopped, and a thick layer had already accumulated outside. Xu Zhou hesitated about the matter of going to the county town the next day.

It’s so snowy, so don’t think about riding a bicycle. Even if he takes the bus, he has to walk to the front road. From his home to the main road, the shortest road is two or three miles away.

Usually, I only have to walk for more than ten or twenty minutes. When I walk in heavy snow, the time will be at least doubled.

"Or forget it!" Du Baoxiu said to Xu Zhou in the evening, "When can't be eaten in hot pot? You don't have to eat it tomorrow!"

Before their family leaves, they must have gathered together, and it is OK to eat at that time.

Xu Zhou disagreed and weighed the pros and cons, so he called He Sheng and asked him to put the rice cooker on the bus and let his second brother-in-law take it and bring it with him.

Xuzhou ran downstairs and the matter was resolved.

"Then have you agreed with your second brother-in-law?" Du Baoxiu couldn't help but ask after hearing Xu Zhou's words.

Xu Zhou nodded, "I'll make it clear. After He Sheng is ready tomorrow, I'll call him. I'll call my second brother-in-law. He guessed that time would be enough to go to the roadside to wait!"

Du Baoxiu thought this method was OK, just to work hard for my second brother-in-law.

"It's okay!" Xu Zhou said, "Give him two more pieces of meat today! My second brother-in-law will be satisfied!"

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, although the road was difficult, the Xu family's daughters and sons-in-law were all here. When the children came to their grandparents' house, the first thing they did was to kowtow and ask for New Year's money. Zhou Hongmei and Xu Jianguo gave him a big red envelope, and Xuzhou Du Baoxiu naturally did not leave. It was Xu Lin, who gave each person a red envelope.

The children were happy and Xu Yue was happy. After all, her son received a lot of red envelopes during the New Year.

As for giving red envelopes, she is nothing to do. The eldest and second sisters' children are so old, what kind of red envelopes are needed.

I don’t know if I was mentally prepared for this, either Xu Li or Xu Yan ignored her. She just didn’t see you give me a red envelope when she was young. Everyone has been used to it for so many years.

Xu Zhou took the rice cooker from his second brother-in-law and started preparing the ingredients. The tomato and beef bottom can be accepted by all children. He really wants to eat spicy food, so he can mix some sauce at that time.

He didn't need anyone else to help, and the others gathered together to talk and play cards.

Xu Yue was not interested in these things. She followed Zhou Hongmei while she went to pick vegetables in the greenhouse in front.

It is called help, but in fact it is something to say.

Zhou Hongmei has been mother and daughter with her for more than 20 years. How can she not know what kind of person Xu Yue is?

"What's the matter?" Zhou Hongmei looked at Xu Yue and asked with a frown.

After hearing this, Xu Yue couldn't help but curl her lips, "What's wrong? I know you're leaving, so I can't talk to you?"

"Then let's talk!" Zhou Hongmei said.

After hearing this, Xu Yue hesitated for a long time before he spoke carefully, "Mom, you said you are all leaving, these things in that family..."

When Zhou Hongmei heard this, she, who had only understood three points, now understood it all.

"What?" Zhou Hongmei asked looking at Xu Yue.

"It's... washing machines, TV and bicycles!" Xu Yue didn't dare to look directly at Zhou Hongmei's eyes, and just lowered her head and said in a low voice, "These things are kept as well. If you don't have them for a long time, it's not good. Look, why not move them home for me to use. Don't worry, it's not the kind of person who can take your things. I just use them. I didn't think about taking possession for myself. When you come back, I'll send the things back! I promise not to break them for you. If they break them, I will compensate you for new ones. Do you think it's okay?"

The more Xu Yue said, the more he felt that his thoughts were very reasonable. Some things are like this. The easier it is to use them, and if they don’t use them for a long time, they will easily become broken.

"Don't even think about it!" Zhou Hongmei rejected Xu Yue's proposal very simply and said with a serious look on her face.

"Mom!" Xu Yue, who was originally smiling, suddenly looked dark after hearing Zhou Hongmei's rejection, and she looked very unhappy, "You would rather rust those good things at home than let me use them!"

"Yes!" Zhou Hongmei said bluntly.

"You are always like this!" Xu Yue stood up suddenly and said angrily, "You are kind to everyone else, just be mean to me! Am I not your daughter?"
