70s Xiao Que Xing

Chapter 196: Congrats
Although Xie Xiaonian and Hong Ri Niang are not familiar, but there is still a way to say hello, so Xie Xiaonian said with a smile: "Auntie, why do you come to my house when you have time? Come in and sit down, it's too cold outside."

"That's right, it's getting colder and colder today." Hong Ri Niang said with a smile, and followed Xiao Nian into the house.

After entering the room, Lan Hua and Hong Ri Niang greeted each other, and seeing that they seemed to have something to say, they quickly packed the books and notes on the table into her schoolbag, and said to Xie Xiaonian with the schoolbag, "Auntie, what about that?" I'm going home first, and I'll come back in the afternoon."

"Well, you go home, there's nothing wrong with you here." Mother Xu continued.

And here, Hongri Niang saw that Xu's mother had already picked up the pancakes on the kang, coaxing them happily, and praised: "This is pancakes, it looks really energetic, white and fat, and so good-looking, It’s a blessing to see.”

When Xu's mother saw someone praising her little grandson, she immediately grinned. Although she was very proud in her heart, she still said modestly: "You shouldn't praise him like that. Don't look at him being white, fat, and cute, but crying It sounds like a little devil, and it hurts people's ears."

"That means the child is in good health, otherwise how could he be crying so loudly." Hong Ri Niang continued with a smile.

And Xie Xiaonian didn't answer their words, and poured hot water for the two of them.

Seeing Xie Xiaonian's movements, Hong Riniang quickly said: "Fucking Pancake, don't pour me water, I'm not an outsider."

"This boiled water is worthless, so don't be too polite, auntie, drink some hot water to warm your body." Xie Xiaonian said while putting the water on the kang table.

"That's right, Hong Ri Niang, drink some hot water to keep warm." Xu's mother also said politely.

After a few people chatted about the daily life for a while, Hong Riniang finally got down to business.

"Fucking pancake, you should also know that my son Hongri is getting married on the 26th of this month, and my aunt is here this time to ask you to pick up his wife."

The rule here is that when the new daughter-in-law arrives at the door, there must be two sister-in-laws of the same generation in the village to help the new daughter-in-law and lead her to the place of worship.

Because the bride is shy, she will keep her head down all the time, so the action of holding her will be as if she is supporting someone, so she is called a daughter-in-law by the villagers.

After that, the two have to lead the person to the new house, and they have to help the new daughter-in-law change shoes and clothes, and if someone is going to have a bridal chamber during the wedding, they will also help dissuade everyone.

So, after the new daughter-in-law married into her husband's house, the two of them had to worry about everything throughout the morning.

Usually, this daughter-in-law is looking for a person in the village who has both children, a harmonious family, and good luck.

Although Xie Xiaonian had a good life, but now she only has one son, she thought she should never invite her.

So Xie Xiaonian said: "You see, I have not been married to our village for long, and I am not even familiar with the people in the village. Besides, I have only one child now, so I don't meet the requirements."

"Now you don't have to stick to the condition of women's doubles here. If you don't have a daughter now, you will definitely have one in the future." Hong Ri Niang said.

Hong Riniang came to invite Xie Xiaonian, not only seeing Xie Xiaonian's good life, but also because Xie Xiaonian was pregnant with a child just after entering the house, which is not something everyone can have.

Hong Riniang also hoped that her daughter-in-law would be like this and give her a big fat boy early, so she thought of asking Xie Xiaonian.

"I just married in the village not long ago, so it's better for an older sister-in-law to do this." Xie Xiaonian politely refused.

Xu's mother also knew that Xie Xiaonian didn't like to go out to join in the fun. In the past, when someone in the village had something to do and wanted to accompany the ceremony, Xie Xiaonian always asked the elders to help him.

So today when Hongri Niang came to her house to look for her, she refused for Xiao Nian, but Hong Ri Niang insisted on coming to Xiao Nian's house to ask her in person, so she had no choice but to bring someone here.

Sure enough, as she expected, Xiao Nian didn't want to go.

Xu's mother saw that Xie Xiaonian really didn't want to go, so she went on to say: "Mrs. Hongri, I told you before that this child, Xiao Nian, has just been married for a year, and she had a child not long after she got married. There is nothing wrong with her." We have been out of the house, and the people in our production team can’t recognize them all. How can we fight our daughter-in-law? And the elders have already agreed to fight their daughter-in-law. I'm looking for another house, I think the eldest daughter-in-law of the brigade secretary is a good candidate."

At this time, Xie Xiaonian knew that Hongri Niang had already invited her sister-in-law, so she couldn't go. How could there be two daughter-in-laws from the same family? It's not suitable either.

Seeing that Xie Xiaonian and Xu's mother disagreed, Hong Riniang had no choice but to give up.

But he wasn't too disappointed, she just wanted to give it a try.

So Hong Ri Niang said: "Well, it's because I didn't think carefully, I'll go back and see if there are other suitable candidates, but you will all come to the house for a wedding in a few days."

"That's for sure. After all, we are also in the first team, so we must go." Mother Xu said with a smile.

After seeing off Hongri Niang, Xu's mother said to Xie Xiaonian: "Xiao Nian, don't ask your sister-in-law to help carry the gift this time. Hongri Niang has said so, you should go by yourself. The people in the village are familiar with it. Before when you were pregnant or confinement, no one would say anything unless you went there yourself, but now that the pancakes have been around for more than 3 months, you should go by yourself, just learn more. Although You are going to join the army after the Chinese New Year, but when you arrive in the army, don’t you also have to be with the troops, so learn a little bit now, it won’t hurt at all.”

"Well, okay, I understand mother, but when the time comes, I will have to trouble you to take care of the pancakes for me." Xie Xiaonian saw Xu's mother persuading him earnestly, and felt that she was a bit too nerdy, so she said after thinking about it.

"It's okay, you can just leave the pancakes to me, it's only a meal, no problem." Mother Xu replied straightforwardly.

Although pancakes do not drink malted milk, it is still no problem to feed them in advance and coax a meal.

In the afternoon, Xie Xiaonian went to kill an old hen while the pancake was asleep, and prepared a pot of soup. It happened that the orchid was also there, so we could have a bowl together.

When the orchid leaves, you can also take it back and give it to Xu's father and Xu's mother.

If it wasn't for Xu's mother who felt that feeding these chickens was a waste of food, and told Xie Xiaonian several times to kill and eat them earlier, so as to save her hunger and thinness, Xie Xiaonian would really not be willing to kill them.

Xie Xiaonian originally thought that he would kill him a year ago, and when he was with the army, he would have an excuse to eat meat in the future.

But in order not to be talked about, Xie Xiaonian had no choice but to kill one from time to time. Fortunately, there was still the pheasant chicken from before, and when the time came, it would be able to make people look careless.

When Xie Xiaonian was stewing the chicken soup, she put 2 sweet potatoes on the edge of the stove as usual, so that they would be turned over every once in a while, and in less than an hour, they would be able to eat delicious roasted sweet potatoes, which happened to be one for each of her and Lan Hua.

Since Lan Hua studied medicine with Xie Xiaonian, she has not eaten and taken less, and she has changed from being embarrassed at the beginning to becoming a habit now.

So when Xie Xiaonian went to kill the chicken, Lan Hua automatically helped to look at the pancakes, waiting to eat something delicious.

The next day, Xie Xiaonian received another letter from Xu Zhongjun. Recently, Xu Zhongjun wrote a letter every 5 days. In the age when he couldn't write a letter for half a year, he was really an outlier.

Xie Xiaonian felt that recently, even the postman looked at her with ridicule, as if she was Su Daji, the evil concubine who brought disaster to the country.

And recently, Xie Xiaonian has also discovered more and more that Xu Zhongjun has a hidden clingy attribute. If it will be put in later generations, he must be the one who calls several times a day. Sure enough, he is not clingy, only more clingy.

Xie Xiaonian himself is the kind of person who can do without contacting anyone for a month if he has nothing serious to do, so Xie Xiaonian feels that his son can't do without him all day, it must be because he inherited Xu Zhongjun and is clingy.

But Xie Xiaonian forgot that her son is only over 3 months old, so he will definitely stick to her. When he grows up, she wants the pancake to stick to her, but he won't like it.

On November 11th, the day of Red Sun's wedding, Xie Xiaonian didn't go to watch the fun in the morning, but was still doing what to do at home. It wasn't until almost 26 o'clock, after feeding the pancakes, that Xie Xiaonian took the pancakes to his sister-in-law's house.

"Come on, your sister-in-law is going to fight her daughter-in-law, she has to prepare the rouge for the new daughter-in-law, and she has to listen to the process. There are many things, so I left early in the morning. You give me the pancakes, and then go and see for yourself Let's have fun, you're so young, you should join in the fun, don't live like an old woman like me, who doesn't leave the door without leaving the door." Seeing Xie Xiaonian coming in, Xu's mother hurriedly said.

"Mother, you know, I don't like to join in the fun, it's not interesting." Xie Xiaonian said embarrassedly.

"I don't think it's interesting either." Lan Hua, who came back with Xie Xiaonian, also chimed in.

"Didn't you like to join in the fun before, but now that you've been with your aunt for a long time, you've become quieter!" Mother Xu said to Lan Hua jokingly.

"Wouldn't it be nice to be quiet, save my mother from always saying that I don't look like a girl." Lan Hua replied unhappily.

"Hahaha, it's good to be quiet, it's good to be quiet, it would be even better if you can be as capable as your aunt, but I see that after Lan Hua studied medicine with your aunt, your temper is becoming more and more like your aunt. "Mother Xu said with a smile.

"That's just right, how great it is to be like my aunt, I just want to be like my aunt." Lan Hua replied arrogantly, as if Xie Xiaonian was such a proud thing.

"Hahaha, don't be bored in the room all day like me, or your mother will definitely worry again." Xie Xiaonian also said with a smile.

After Xie Xiaonian had a conversation with Xu's mother, it was almost 11:[-], and seeing that although Panbing was awake, she played well with Xiaobai on the kang and didn't cry, so she took the gift money and went to Hongri's house to congratulate her up.

Because at this time, members of a production team, if they are not related to each other, will be given a gift of 1 yuan.

And when Xie Xiaonian got married, Hong Ri Niang also took 1 yuan with her, so when Xie Xiaonian arrived, she gave a gift of 1 yuan, and looked at the person who received the money, and wrote Xu Zhongjun's name on the gift slip.

After the ceremony, Xie Xiaonian walked around outside, found a seat in the corner, and sat down.

At this time, there were already 5 village women and 2 children sitting at the table, now including Xie Xiaonian, there were exactly 8 people, filling a square table.

Because I've seen it before, Xie Xiaonian chatted with a few women naturally after sitting on the stool.

But because Xie Xiaonian didn't go out very much, several people were very curious about Xie Xiaonian, and they kept asking Xie Xiaonian why he didn't go out, what he did at home, how he learned medical skills and so on.

After a long time, Xie Xiaonian's face was almost frozen with laughter, but he couldn't ignore them, so he could only deal with them as best he could.
