After plucking the wormwood in the field for a while, Song Hongguo watered the row of fruit trees outside the fence again. The apple trees and hawthorn trees that Sheng Zhongxin helped plant at the beginning grew well, and she also used chemical fertilizers in private. , so she looked refreshed right now, and after all the busy work was over, it was past ten o'clock, and she took the two children to change into clean clothes.

Both children were wearing her newly made clothes with sweaters inside, and the shoes were cloth shoes sent by Zhao Zhenhua last time. They didn't look foreign, but they were more comfortable to iron.

Song Hongguo dressed more casually, not like she did at work, but in her eyes, casual, in the eyes of others, it was very decent, after all, there was no patch on her body, and the color was not washed out. White, the upper body is a padded jacket with a slanted front, a little longer, covering the buttocks, and the waist is slightly tucked in, making it look slim, but not too conspicuous, the color is a bit nostalgic, but it looks good after wearing it. Dress elegantly and generously.

Below are black wide-leg trousers, which are different from the fat and fat trousers nowadays. They look loose, but they are very stylish. The upper back does not look bloated at all, but the legs look long and straight.

So this body is casual and not casual, formal and not too formal, just right, whether it's a birthday or a relative, it's hard to find reason.

The same is true for the gifts she prepared, a total of four items, ten eggs, a pack of longevity cakes, eight green balls, and two canned fruits. Nowadays, relatives are used to give gifts to four items, and the other party will not accept them all. , usually only half of it will be kept, and very few people who are not particular about people will keep more, and they will be laughed at.

Her birthday gift is definitely considered important in the village, but it will not be so heavy that people will feel pressured, or feel that she is showing off or something. After all, she has a formal job, eats food, and has a high salary. Something too light would be choreographed for her to look down upon.

Sun Shuhong is very good at being a person, and she took the initiative to ask her to go with her, so as not to make her uncomfortable, and she also wanted to lead her to recognize people and support her when the time came.

Song Hongguo naturally appreciated it, and asked carefully on the way the names of the relatives of the Zhao family, as well as their seniority, so as not to call the wrong person in time.

In the future, if you want to live here permanently, it is still necessary to establish a good relationship with neighbors and relatives.

The Zhao family is definitely a big name in the Red Persimmon Squad. If they can gather together a small team, it is enough to see that there are a lot of people. One must know that a small team needs about twenty families, and the Zhao family's small team has hardly produced five uniforms, but There are only two families closest to Grandpa Song Hongguo, one is the family of Captain Zhao Baoqing, and the other is the family of Zhao Dejiang who celebrates his birthday today. Zhao Dejiang, her grandfather Zhao Deshan and Zhao Baoqing's father Zhao Deshui are brothers, but now , her grandfather and Zhao Deshui both passed away, leaving only Zhao Dejiang who ranked third.

The others are cousins. Zhao Dejiang celebrates his birthday today, and they won't go. Originally, the countryside doesn't pay much attention to this. That is, if there are married daughters at home, they will come back on their parents' birthdays to give something away. Showing filial piety, but brothers of the same clan, don't join in the fun.

However, after all, Zhao Dejiang is an elder, and today is his birthday again. Zhao Baoqing will still show some signs when he calls him his second uncle. Naturally, her second aunt is also the same. In addition, there are three of his own daughters. If there is an accident, they will come, but Song Hongguo is actually optional, after all, there is another floor.

But since she went, it represented her biological mother.

Zhao Dejiang's house is located in the middle of the village. The yard is not small, but there are many people in the family. The adobe house built around it seems a lot crowded. He has four sons, who have not yet separated. The grandson at the bottom There are more granddaughters, especially the eldest grandsons are married and have children, and the four generations live under the same roof. Thinking about it, I know how lively it is.

Sun Shuhong said that the old man is still looking forward to the five generations living together, and the family will be separated at that time.

It is enviable to have five generations living under one roof, but it would be terrible if they all lived together in one yard. Anyway, Song Hongguo didn't dare to think about it, and when she experienced it herself, she felt deeply tired.

There are too many people, it is called a chaos.

Old and young, men and women, there are fifty or sixty people in total, there is no room to sit in the main room, most of them are standing in the yard, the children are running around playing, making noise, talking and laughing, scolding, from a long distance away, Song Hongguo had already started to have a headache.

Sun Shuhong was obviously used to it a long time ago, and comforted her, "I'll take you in to put down the birthday gift, say a few words to the third grandpa, and get to know the relatives, and then we'll go."

After finishing speaking, I deliberately added a sentence, "In the past, when the times were good, you could still have guests for a meal, but now every family can't fill their stomachs, and they really can't afford to manage so many people. It's not just you. Wait a while, your second aunt, and the cousins ​​of the third grandpa's family have to go back to eat at home, at least give them some food from far away, so as not to be too hungry to walk on the road."

Song Hongguo hurriedly nodded to express her understanding, even if she was allowed to stay, she would not be happy.

As soon as the two of them entered the yard, those chatterers all looked over. They all came back from work in the field at the moment, and it was the time when people were at their most complete. Who wouldn't be curious to see someone they didn't know?

Sun Shuhong knew them all well, so she called out to them one by one, and introduced Song Hongguo, and she made it very clear that she was the niece and granddaughter of the great grandfather's family, Zhao Yuzhi's little girl, but she was adopted by others when she was very young, and her surname was changed. , but now by chance, he was assigned to the staff hospital of the aluminum factory and lived in the Tomato Brigade. He will not see him when he looks up and he will see him when he looks down. With that kind of blood relationship, he will naturally have to come and recognize his relatives, so that he can move around in the future.

Others listened with different thoughts, and most of them welcomed it. After all, Song Hongguo looked very educated and a doctor. With relatives like this, he might be able to use it at any time. Even if you don’t need it, it sounds good when you say it, and there are also those who don’t care about it. They think how many floors are separated, and she is a girl with a changed surname, so the relationship is too far away. Song Hongguo vented his anger instead.

For example, her second aunt Zhao Yulian.

Zhao Yulian was in the main room and didn't get up when she heard the commotion outside. After Song Hongguo called all the people in the yard to come in one by one, she still twisted her body and just talked to Zhao Dejiang's daughter-in-law Li Lanying.

On the contrary, Zhao Dejiang valued Song Hongguo's visit very much, especially after seeing the birthday gift in the basket, he smiled until the creases on his face deepened, and he treated her very kindly, without putting on airs of an elder.

Song Hongguo was sitting on the bench, her face showing no trace of embarrassment, even if Zhao Yulian showed her back, she didn't feel embarrassed, she smiled and answered all kinds of questions from the people in the main room, and responded in a calm and unhurried manner.
