Chapter 217: Lilac Storm
"Why is it her?" Lian Man'er showed a surprised expression and read the full text.
"Don't you want to eat dumplings on New Year's Eve? When it's late, Xiu'e's sister-in-law chatted with her aunt, saying that adding some sugar to the meat filling will make it even more delicious." Lian Ye'er recalled, "My aunt said that adding sugar to the meat filling will make it sweet, and it will be delicious. Xiu'e's sister-in-law said that the meat filling that she made dumplings at home was added with sugar, which was particularly delicious. My sister-in-law was moved by Xiu'e's sister-in-law, saying that it's a pity that there is no sugar at home. Xiu'e's sister-in-law said that you have it, saying that you bought four kilograms of candy at one time in her grocery store. Xiu'e's sister-in-law also said that the fourth uncle and fourth aunt bought these old candy, and they thought they had to give some to the grandma and grandma who came to the house."
"So she knew about this, and she was so embarrassed to say that." Lian Man'er sneered, and kindly went to help Fidelity grocery store business, but she told Lian Ye'er about buying four kilograms of candy, "This is really all kinds of people. Our kindness has been considered to have fed the dog. Later, why did she ask her aunt to ask us for candy?"
"My aunt was very angry after hearing her words and said she wanted to tell her mother. Sister-in-law Xiu'e stopped her, saying that she was in a bad mood with her, and then told her about this. I don't know that you didn't give sugar to the room. She also said that if the milk knows and makes a fuss, you will definitely blame her for talking too much, and it will be difficult for her to be a human being. She persuaded her to stop and said that if my aunt asks you for sugar, you must give it to her." Lian Ye'er said.
"Then, my aunt came to us with a bowl and asked for candy?" Lian Man'er asked.
"Yeah." Lian Ye'er nodded, "Sister Man'er, did my aunt come to you yesterday morning to ask you for soy sauce? It's also because of Xiu'e's sister-in-law."
"Ah, why is there her everywhere?" Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but say.
"What's going on?" Lian Man'er asked.
"My grandma took someone to cook, and Xiu'e's sister-in-law said she could cook pig heads and other things. She asked her to cook... and she used a can of soy sauce. She told her aunt to ask her to ask you for some. She also asked her aunt to say that it was the milk that asked her to go... She and her aunt both spoke behind their backs, and I heard a few words." Lian Ye'er said in a slight manner.
"Ye'er, how do you look at Sister Xiu'e's?" Lian Man'er thought about it and asked Lian Ye'er.
"I'm pretty good at cooking. My mother said she's a neat person." Lian Ye'er paused for a moment, "I don't think she's very good at it."
"I'm pretty bad." Lian Zhi'er has a gentle personality, and it seems that she hates Zhao Xiu'e very much.
"No, I just saw you two." Lian Man'er said about Niu Niu asking for New Year's money, "Our family has no money, and my grandparents have never given New Year's money. No one wants it. Niu Niu suddenly asked for it, and I felt a little uncomfortable when I saw the milk. My sister-in-law was afraid that the milk was suspected that she taught Niu Niu, so she quickly explained."
"Man'er, are you saying that Xiu'e's sister-in-law deliberately taught Niu Niu to ask for New Year's money?" Lian Zhi'er asked.
"Apart from her, I can't think of anyone else." Lian Man'er said.
"It should be her. In the morning, my sister-in-law cleaned up the house, and Xiu'e's sister-in-law took Niu Niu out for a long time." Lian Ye'er said.
The New Year greetings event came to an end until noon. Lian Shouxin, Zhang brought Goro and Xiaoqi back. Wulang and Xiaoqi took out the candy from their pockets, which they received to wish their elders a New Year, and they were reluctant to eat it. They took it back and distributed it to Lian Man'er and Lian Zhi'er. Lian Man'er happily took out a box and kept it all for everyone to eat it slowly in the future.
The family started cooking with fire and only cooked a pot of rice. The dishes were ready-made and could be eaten after being heated. The amount of dishes for the New Year’s Eve dinner was very large, so they were busy these days of the first lunar month and had no time to cook.
After dinner, Lian Man'er told Lian Shouxin and Zhang about Lian Ye'er's words.
"The family tradition of the Zhao family is really a problem." Lian Shouxin said, "I should inquire more when I get engaged."
"His second uncle and second uncle are attracted by the fact that their parents' family are rich and have a lot of dowry, so they don't care about anything else." Zhang sighed, "Our father was worried about his uncle at that time."
"Our parents were not willing at that time. They were not the second brother and second sister-in-law. They had to fall in love with their family, and Erlang was willing." Lian Shouxin said.
"It's better to marry a wife, be honest and worry-free, and there's no trouble." Zhang said.
After a while, Lian Shouxin and Zhang went to the houses of several peer families whom they usually had. After returning, the family was called to the room again.
"Our family treats guests in the third year of junior high school, so don't arrange anything else that day." Mr. Lian said about treating guests.
Lian Shouxin and Zhang naturally agreed.
The village households in Sanshiliyingzi have the custom of treating guests in the first lunar month. That is, most families will choose a day to entertain relatives and friends.
After talking about the treat, everyone parted ways. Even the old man went out. He wanted to go to a few old brothers.
"Second, don't you hurry to leave." Zhou stopped Lian Shouxin and waved his hand to let others leave, "You guys go, I have something to say to the Sioux."
Even Man'er and a few had to come out.
"What's the matter with our mother looking for our father?" several children muttered to themselves.
Lian Man'er thought it would be better to go and listen to the window, so she sneaked under the windowsill of the landlord's house with Xiaoqi and listened to the movement inside.
"...A handful of shit and peeing have pulled you up. You have eaten my milk for three years! At what time, you can't forget your original name, otherwise you are a beast. I won't ask you for anything, just Xiu'er is an old girl, you are not rich, you wear gold and silver for your wife and children, why don't you think about buying one for your girl?...No need to spend too much, just like the golden lilac like Zhi'er and Man'er, you also buy a pair for Xiu'er, and I won't tell you anything."
"My mother asked her father to buy golden lilacs for her aunt?" Xiaoqi said in surprise and hurriedly covered her mouth.
Lian Man'er's face turned red in anger.
"Who is outside?" Zhou heard Xiaoqi's voice and asked in the room.
"Who has worn gold and silver? Didn't he just buy a pair of golden lilacs? This is the first time my sister and I grew up so old. We bought it for our own money. My aunt is not better than us? When she wears whatever she wears, why didn't she think about buying the same thing for me and my sister?" Lian Man'er finished this sentence, and without waiting for Zhou's reaction, she immediately pulled Xiaoqi back to the west wing.
After entering the house, Man'er took off her shoes and sat on the kang and didn't say anything.
"What's wrong with Man'er? Why are you so angry?" Zhang just heard Lian Man'er's words when he was outside and vaguely guessed what was going on.
"My mother asked her father to buy golden lilacs for her aunt." Xiao Qi said to Zhang what he heard Zhou's words.
Zhang touched the hairpin on his head.
"We might not have bought these things..." Zhang sighed. That's it. But after her hard work and hard work, she gained wealth, and she could save herself. But she couldn't help but want to buy some good things for the children. Especially Lian Zhier and Lian Man'er, they never lived a good life with them. This pair of Jin Dingxiang was the first time that her family bought jewelry for her two children.
"Why shouldn't you buy it?" Lian Man'er couldn't help but speak, "I didn't spend other people's money."
And it was just a pair of small golden lilacs, and she and Lian Zhier had no other jewelry on their bodies. Lian Xiuer's clothes and jewelry must be much more than theirs. They were not envious, nor would they be jealous. But others could not stand their little lilacs!
"Hey, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, I finally calmed down for a day yesterday. I calmed down for a long time today, and this..." Zhang sighed.
"Mom, this is not that we don't want to calm down." Lian Man'er said, "I always give in, but I'm really out of the game."
Lian Man'er remembered that Taizu of her previous dynasty had a famous saying: seek unity through struggle, then unity will survive; seek unity through concessions, then unity will perish.
A famous saying, Lian Man'er was planning to write these two sentences into pairs tomorrow and post them in the most eye-catching position in the house. Let the family wake up early and recite them three times every day before going to bed.
"Sister, dad hasn't come back yet. Dad, will he agree? I heard the breasts scolding..." Xiaoqi pointed at his finger.
"Your father, I'm afraid he can't hold back your breasts scolding..." Zhang speculated in disapproval.
"Hmph." Lian Man'er clenched his fists, "When my father comes back later, don't talk, listen to me."
…………
After a while, Zhou's scolding in the room finally stopped, and Lian Shouxin returned to the west wing with a drooping head.
When Lian Man'er saw Lian Shouxin's face, she knew that he must have been scolded. She just refuted Zhou's words, and Zhou should have been remembered by Zhou's.
Everyone sympathized with Lian Shuxin in their hearts, but because they had discussed with Lian Man'er, no one spoke first and left Lian Shuxin there.
Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Lian Shouxin walked to the edge of the kang and sat down on the edge of the kang.
"...A pair of golden lilacs, I couldn't resist it, I promised you to breastfeed." Lian Shouxin spoke a little hesitantly.
Still no one paid attention to Lian Shuxin.
"Damn, Man'er, what should I do if I don't agree to this New Year? Xiu'er is also very old and cried about this. She doesn't have much time at home. Just this time, there will be no more next time." Lian Shouxin said again.
Still no one paid attention to Lian Shuxin, everyone should do whatever they should do.
"Buy golden lilacs for Xiu'er, and don't use our official salary, just use my own salary." Lian Shouxin said last.
"Okay." Lian Man'er agreed, turned around and took out the account book and handed it to Lian Shouxin. "Dad, see how much money is in your account?"
Lian Shouxin took the account book and looked at it. It took him a long time to understand it. Usually, Lian Man'er and his children took the accounts and managed money. Lian Shouxin saw that they were doing it well, so he rarely read the account book himself.
"Man'er, how much can I pay?"
"Dad, you have no money in your account, and you have spent all your wages." Lian Man'er said.
"Then, can I pay my wages for several months in advance?"
"Dad, your wages have been paid up until this time next year. Our shop has only been renting a house for a year. At this time next year, our shop may not be able to open it. So, Dad, you still owe us money." Lian Man'er extended his hand to Lian Shouxin, "Dad, can you pay back the money you owe first?"
