Chapter 40 40. Chinese New Year, New Year greetings

After all, in addition to paying New Year's greetings to the Lin family, they also went to pay New Year's greetings to the village chief's family. Zhou Guilin is the younger brother of the village chief Zhou Guitang. The two have the same father, but Zhou Guitang was raised by Zhou Guilin's mother, and Zhou Guilin

His parents are still alive and living with Zhou Guitang. The Zhou Guitang family is also very filial to their old parents.

On the other side, Lin Yizheng carried a basket out of the house and went straight to Zhou Guitang's house with his younger brothers and sisters. He paid New Year's greetings to Zhou Guitang's family, put down his things, and then went to Zhou Guihe's house. Zhou Guihe's wife, Sun Damei, happened to be at home, and saw Lin Yizheng and the four of them.

After looking around, he took the cloth bag handed over by Lin Yizheng, wrapped a two-cent red envelope for each of the four of them, and took out the shoes he had given to the four brothers and sisters before letting them go.

After leaving Zhou Guihe's house, Lin Yizheng and the others went to the old Zhou family's house. Zhou Jin was even more interested in these four people than Sister Sun. She gave them red envelopes and stuffed their pockets full of snacks, and then took out her own Lin Qingxi

The cloth was sent to make a set of underwear and socks for each of the four of them.

"Thank you, grandma," Lin Yizheng and the other two were very happy. This feeling of being cared for was so good that they were reluctant to leave.

"Thank you very much. Your sister-in-law brought this cloth over. Grandma just borrowed flowers to offer to the Buddha," Zhou Jin said with a smile. Not only did everyone in Zhou's family make the cloth that Lin Qingxi sent,

I bought a set of underwear and used the extra fabric to make two pairs of large underpants for the men in my family.

Therefore, everyone in the old Zhou family was very grateful to Lin Qingxi. Zhou Jin made clothes for Lin Yizheng and the four of them, and the female relatives of the old Zhou family also helped with a lot of work.

Lin Qingxi was so generous to them, so they had to reciprocate the favor. Jin Dahua and her two daughters-in-law often gave Lin Qingxi pickles and sauerkraut dumplings behind their backs, all of which were homemade.

Of course, Jin Dahua thought she was carrying the whole family behind her back, but everyone in the old Zhou family knew it, but they just didn't point it out.

"Yizheng, you four are having lunch at home! Boss, go and ask Xi Yatou to come over for lunch. For the boss's family, you take Yumei and Cuilan to prepare lunch." Zhou Jin sat on the Kang,

Holding Yikang in his arms and telling everyone to do things, he was just like an old lady in ancient times.

"Oh, I'll go right away," Zhou Guijiang said, got up, got off the kang, put on his shoes and went out.

"Mom, I'm going to get ready now. Minghui, you go to your second uncle's house and ask your second uncle and his family to come over for dinner," Jin Dahua said, and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch with her two daughters-in-law.

Went.

For a time, old Zhou's family was very lively, and several children were chattering away. Zhou Jin and Zhou Daye were sitting on the kang, watching the children chatting and making trouble.

On the Lin family side, Lin Qingxi had just sent away Zhou Guilin's family who had come to pay New Year's greetings. Before they could sit down and rest, Zhou Guijiang came over.

After hearing Zhou Guijiang's words, Lin Qingxi couldn't resist the kindness. She went to the kitchen and took ten meat buns, wrapped them in cloth, and then followed Zhou Guijiang to Lao Zhou's house.

The lunch prepared by Jin Dahua was very sumptuous. This was the only time that the old Zhou family had such a sumptuous meal in many years. Everyone was very satisfied and happy.

After the first day of the Lunar New Year, no one from the Lin family came to pay New Year's greetings. On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Qingxi took her four siblings, Lin Yizheng and Lin Yizheng, to the Qinghe City compound to pay New Year's greetings to Zhang Qingguo's family.

"Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, happy New Year. I brought the children to greet you." Lin Qingxi parked her bicycle downstairs, carried baskets on her back, and went upstairs to Zhang's house with her four children.

Home.

"Hey, girl Xi is here. I told you that there were magpies chirping in the tree this morning. It turns out that there are distinguished guests coming to the door!" Chen Xiaocui pulled Lin Qingxi and smiled from ear to ear. She quickly invited them into the house and welcomed them.

Sit down in the living room.

"Auntie, didn't you and Uncle Zhang go back to your hometown to celebrate the New Year?" Lin Qingxi didn't know much about the Zhang family. She was not a talkative or nosy person, so naturally she would not take the initiative to ask about other people's family affairs.

"No, your Uncle Zhang is busy with work, and Kangkang is still young. It's too cold in the capital, and we don't worry about traveling long distances. So we might as well wait until June and take the child to live there for two months."

Chen Xiaocui didn't worry about her children and husband, so she just didn't go. Anyway, the Chinese New Year is just like that now.

"That's okay. Kangkang is a premature baby. He needs to be raised carefully when he is over three years old. Especially, don't get too cold in winter and don't be greedy for coolness in summer. His stomach is weak and he can't touch anything strong or spicy. After three years old

Let’s talk about the situation later,” Lin Qingxi said patiently.

"Girl Xi is here," Anru had just fed the child and came out of the room with the child in her arms. When she heard what Lin Qingxi said, she felt very grateful.

"Third sister-in-law," Lin Qingxi saw Anru and quickly called for someone to come. Immediately afterwards, Lin Yizheng and others shouted: "Third sister-in-law."

"Auntie, I came here today to ask for something. Yi Zheng is a few years old. I plan to send them to Qinghe City to study. Auntie has also lived in Qinghe City for a few months. I want to ask auntie to help me look at the house.

and school.”

Lin Qingxi did not hide it. She knew that the Zhang family owed her a favor and felt uneasy, so she gave the Zhang family a chance to return the favor. In this way, she would not have any burden in her dealings with the Zhang family.

.

"Don't worry, my aunt has taken care of this for you. Do you have any requirements for this house?" Chen Xiaocui looked at Lin Qingxi and asked seriously.

"As for the house, it must be spacious enough to live in. It is best to have a yard and not be too far from the school. The four of them, Yi Zheng, are all in elementary school. Yi Zheng was originally in fifth grade, Yi Rong and Yi

Jingdu is in the third grade and Yikang is in school." Lin Qingxi thought about it carefully and realized that she must have said it right.

"As you mentioned, I have a house that is suitable for me. Do you have time today? Can I take you to see the house now?" Chen Xiaocui said enthusiastically.

"Okay! Then I'll bother Auntie," Lin Qingxi nodded and agreed without thinking.

In this way, Chen Xiaocui and Lin Qingxi left their four children at home for Anru to look after, and they went out to look at the house.

Lin Qingxi followed Chen Xiaocui for about twenty minutes. She turned around and came to an alley. She saw Chen Xiaocui knocking on the door. Within a few minutes, a lame old man came to open the door.

Already.

"Uncle Cheng, I brought my niece to see the house. Is it convenient for you?" Chen Xiaocui was very respectful when she saw the visitor.

"Come in!" The lame old man looked at Lin Qingxi intently for a few times and said in a hoarse voice. As he spoke, he opened the door and let Lin Qingxi and Chen Xiaocui in.

After the two of them entered, they remained silent, especially the lame old man. He led Chen Xiaocui and Lin Qingxi around the entire house without saying a word.
