Chapter 178
In the next two days, there will always be people coming to the house to give New Year's gifts, and in the end the kitchen simply can't put it down and it's over.

Xiuxiu was on vacation on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. If she had returned to her hometown during the Chinese New Year, Xu Lan would have let her go long ago, but since she didn't go back, she has been keeping her busy until now.

Before the holiday, Xu Lan paid Xiuxiu a salary and a red envelope, and finally she got 80 yuan this month, which is already very high.

You must know that the current monthly salary is about thirty or forty.

"Save this money." Xiuxiu doesn't eat and drink for free here. She often goes grocery shopping, and helps with cleaning or cooking. But in the past six months, she has saved three hundred yuan. It can be said that it is worth the salary of many people for a year.

"When the fourth uncle and aunt come, are you going to give them the money?"

"I will discuss this with my parents. I want to save it first. After working in Sister Xu's store for three or two years, I will use the money I earn to open a store, so that I don't need to ask my parents again. "

"You have a good idea. Besides, my uncles and aunts don't expect you to make much money. As long as you live well, they will be satisfied."

"I know."

On New Year's Eve, Jiang Yu and Xiuxiu were cooking in the kitchen, while Jiang Yan took Jiang Chuan to post Spring Festival couplets outside.

The Bai Chen couple next door had already gone to the banquet to celebrate the New Year together, and they were not here for the past few days, so they seemed a bit cooler than usual.

But anyway, it's also the New Year. In these days in the community, you can often hear the occasional sound of setting off firecrackers. This is where the children gather to play.

Their side is step by step, and so is Hexi Village.

At the end of the twelfth lunar month, Jiang Changhai's three sons and daughters-in-law each took their children back to their hometowns.

They are usually outside, and they only come back during the New Year and holidays. The distance is fragrant and the near is smelly. Whether it is between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law or sister-in-law, the relationship has always been very harmonious.

"Xiuxiu has been away for more than half a year, and I didn't expect to come back during the Chinese New Year." Yao Lin was washing the vegetables while chatting with her two sisters-in-law, "But living in Dani's house, I should have a good life."

"It's very good." Li Ping has always lived with her in-laws. She can listen to Xiuxiu's phone calls and knows a lot. , When I have enough experience, I want to open a store by myself, and my parents agree, anyway, it’s all Xiuxiu’s own money, and the family doesn’t want to ask for money from the children.”

"That's right, our family has three sons and daughters-in-law, how can we let my sister-in-law take care of her?" Qi Shuangshuang put the washed cucumbers into the basin, "Did my parents say when we will go to the capital?"

Li Ping knew that the younger siblings were talking about Jiang Yan's marriage, "I told you, our mother will come over early, Dani has no parents or elders, and our mother is her closest elder, so we have to go over early to help with the shopping. Dad means let us Later, it’s fine if you can arrive three or two days before the wedding.”

"Oh, I have never traveled far in my life. Who would have thought that this journey would be the capital. In those few days, the children and the school should take a leave of absence and bring them all over. After Dani's wedding banquet is over, the few of us Let’s take the children to wander around the capital and see the Forbidden City and the Great Wall.”

The other two sisters-in-law nodded repeatedly. It is rare to go to such a far place. Of course, it must be fun, otherwise it would be a pity.

Xiuxiu called Jiang Changhai and his wife in the afternoon. After receiving the call, Zhao Caihua missed her daughter and talked on the phone for a long time. Heartbroken.

No matter how her son and daughter-in-law tried to persuade her after returning home, Zhao Caihua still felt unable to let go.

My daughter has been carefully raised since she was a child. Not to mention the New Year, she rarely leaves her side at other times. Who knows that she will never come back for the New Year.

In the end, Jiang Changhai couldn't stand it anymore. He picked up a wet handkerchief and pasted it on the old woman's face, and said in a muffled voice, "Why are you crying? You'll see it in two months? Didn't Xiu say it on the phone? While eating and drinking well, neither cold nor hot, working harder can make more money than at home, what else is there for you to cry about?"

When Zhao Caihua heard it, it was true, "But I just want to show off, and you don't think about it. When did Xiu leave home from birth to adulthood? This time, she went so far and didn't come back during the New Year. Don't let me cry twice?"

"Okay, then you can cry, eldest daughter-in-law, the three of you can watch the dinner."

"I know, dad." Yao Lin and the other two sisters-in-law nodded dumbfoundingly.

It is difficult to get along with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but Zhao Caihua treats the three of them just like her own mother. Maybe it can't be said that, Yao Lin was favored at home since she was a child, and she found a husband she liked when she grew up. There is a son and a daughter, and the mother-in-law does her best to take care of her during the confinement period. She is no worse than a mother.

But when Li Ping and Qi Shuangshuang were girls, life at home was not very happy, after all, the family valued boys over girls.

But marrying into the Jiang family and meeting such a good mother-in-law as Zhao Caihua, she is closer than her own mother.

When their three small families were separated, the parents-in-law didn't give much money, but the three sons couldn't help themselves. They didn't drag Jiang Changhai and his wife at all. The only sister-in-law, her parents-in-law earned money from Jiang Xiuxiu.

Fortunately, this sister-in-law is lively and cheerful, and gets along well with her sister-in-laws, and she has nothing to say to her nephews and nieces. As a sister-in-law, can she still grab things with her sister-in-law?
The life of the three of them is more comfortable, and they naturally hope that when this sister-in-law gets married in the future, the dowry will be richer, and she can live a straight life in her husband's house.

It would be an understatement to say that they didn't think carefully, but in their view, as long as the sister-in-law lives well, the three of their families can be less burdened, everyone is happy, and there is no need to worry about it.

As for Jiang Xiuxiu, who was far away in the capital, after watching the new year with Jiang Yu, she returned to her room and fell asleep.

But when I woke up in the morning, the pillow was wet.

It's usually fine, but in days like Chinese New Year, people who always want to be with their family, how could they not respond at all.

"Xiuxiu, are you up?" Jiang Yu knocked on the door outside.

"Come in." Jiang Xiuxiu sat up and began to dress quickly, "Why did you get up so early?"

"I'll get up early to make breakfast, and then we'll go to New Year's greetings together."

Jiang Xiuxiu was slightly taken aback, and then said: "Is it appropriate for you to go to pay New Year's greetings?"

"Why isn't it appropriate? Do you want to be alone at home? Maybe we won't be eating at home at noon. We'll have lunch at He's today. Hurry up."

"Oh, come down now."

I have to say that the winter in Beijing is really cold, unlike at home, as long as you live in the stove, the kang is so comfortable that people don't want to move their buttocks.

For this reason, when they go to bed at night, they put three or four hot water bottles under the quilt.
