Chapter 261

For the house warming ceremony of Zhang Chunming's house, four tables were set up in the big courtyard. From half past eleven to one o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Guoqing was busy all morning. He hurriedly paid respects to the elders and rushed home.

Fortunately, the two are not far away. Zhang Guoqing watched Zhou Jiao finish her meal, packed up, and hurried to Zhang Meili's house. At first I thought it didn't matter if there were two older brothers to resist. But Zhang Guoqing has forgotten that he is no longer what he used to be in the eyes of others. Since Zhang's second child went to work this week, many people saw a lot of things in their eyes.

The number of guests gradually decreased, and some colleagues of Zhang Meili and his wife had to work night shifts, and they left after drinking for three rounds.

The rest of the villagers began to surround Father Zhang and ask where Zhang Guoqing's house was. Is it far away?

Father Zhang wondered if he should bring so many people home. He just wanted to ask his wife for help when he saw Zhang Guoqing standing not far away, winking at him all the time.

Father Zhang came over immediately, and said with a smile: "Why do you ask so many questions? This is the end of the show, and then go to my little five to have a sit. Just to know the way." The two in-laws went straight to the courtyard.

Zhang Guoqing hurriedly found Ziwen and Xizi, and asked them to run to tell Zhou Jiao to entertain the tribe well. He asked Zhang's mother to go to the small courtyard first, and prepared to order wine and food to entertain the villagers.

Arrange a group of people in the family to go to the small courtyard. Looking at the back of them leaving, Zhang Guoqing greeted Zhang Meili cheerfully, and told his elder sister to focus on her own affairs and he was outside. His second sister already had an agreement with the chef in charge yesterday, and now he is going to finish it.

Looking at the back of Xiaowu leaving, Zhang Meili felt a lot more relaxed. She never expected that so many people would come today. Fortunately, Xiao Wu from her family was well-prepared, otherwise she would have become a joke in the county.

Zhang Meili also greeted the sisters-in-law who didn't intervene to help, after the feast, and then kowtow sunflower seeds. She secretly told herself: her natal brothers have prepared so much for her, just to think that she will be prosperous today and have a happy life in the future. How could she live up to their wishes?

Zhang Meili dealt with them while listening to their sour words. After a while, she found that several elder brothers had also gone to Xiao Wu's place. Sneaking secretly, go, after reading it, you probably won’t be able to sleep anymore.

She touched the quilts of the two big red flowers, and knew that it must be the last time Xiao Wu came to the house and went back to tell Zhou Jiao. This was all prepared by his younger brother and sister Zhou Jiao.

From yesterday, the two sisters each had a hundred catties of briquettes and a hundred catties of firewood, to the banquet prepared for her. Not to mention those meat dishes, even those wines are not rare. In addition to these gifts sent today, the money spent is not a decimal.

This is why Zhou Jiao is so talkative, if she changes from the boss to the second family, she must peel Xiao Wu's skin. It is said that he borrowed five or three hundred yuan, so what is owed more than that? From the child's pocket money to now, she dare not think about it.

When Zhang Guoqing arrived at the yard of the second sister Zhang Meihao, he found that the master who was in charge of the spoon had already cleaned it up. The main door of the Chen family was locked, and it seemed that no one was inside.

He took out a red envelope prepared in advance and stuffed it to the master. After thanking you again and again, I personally sent them out the door. Watching them leave, Zhang Guoqing locked the yard door and hurried to his home.

As soon as he arrived at his yard, there was a lot of laughter inside, and he was suddenly relieved. He didn't rush in and went to the kitchen to have a look. Sure enough, his mother brought two sisters-in-law, and the second sister-in-law and daughter-in-law were preparing.

Zhang's mother saw him standing at the door with a smile on her face and looked at them, and complained: "You child, what are you fussing about? Drink your saliva quickly. Don't worry, our Jiaojiao is helping you entertain guests. Go in and have a look." Look, let her take a break. She has been busy serving tea and water. She even drove us out to prepare food and wine, and said that we would go back to the village together after eating. I don’t know what to say about this child. She also asked me to do everything. Take it back after finishing it. You two prodigal couples!"

Zhang Meili's mother-in-law laughed when she heard this, "Your family Jiaojiao has the same temper as Meimei—very hospitable! This is a good thing. The daughter-in-law is filial. Make faces for the two of you. Don't talk about children, let them feel sad. "

Zhang Guoqing was very happy when he heard the words, and said with a smile, "It's not sad. My mother is happy. My two sister-in-laws are really sad. They are busy with my mother, but I don't see my mother praising them. Sister-in-law , you are wronged. Brother asked Jiaojiao to pour water for you, if you have anything to do, you can find her and send her as you like."

Huang Cuilan smiled and waved her hands again and again, "Don't talk about this. We didn't do anything, just watch today. You've been busy all day, has your eldest sister cleaned up?"

"It's all cleaned up. The chef in charge of the eldest sister washed the leftover dishes and took them home. I just sent them off in the second sister's yard. The master is very good, and even the second sister's yard is clean Auntie, I don't think there is any problem. Just lock the door of the yard. You can play here with peace of mind."

Mother Zhang watched him drink the water and urged him to go in to replace Zhou Jiao.

In the guest room, Father Zhang and several old people were sitting on the kang, and the two chairs in front of the kang were sitting with his parents. An old man in the village touched the quilt on the kang and joked, "Are you used to sleeping on this new quilt? I think you have to press a stone slab to sleep well at night."

Father Zhang took out a pipe and put it on the kang table, "I really haven't slept here. The child said to keep it for us old couple, but I still like to go back to the village. I'm really not used to it."

Accountant Zhang laughed loudly, "You silly old man, I don't know how to let you enjoy the blessings. Your young couple are so filial. Such a nice house allows you to smoke and make you mess around. You old guy really can't enjoy the blessings. You don't live here! I think your youngest son is determined to let you live here. We've all lived to such an age that we can judge people. As for your youngest daughter-in-law, she sincerely lets you two live here."

An old man sighed repeatedly after hearing this, "The second child is lucky. If you don't have a family, you will have a capable father. When you get married, you will have three good sons. When you are old, you will have three daughters-in-law. You will not need anything."

There were cheers from several old ladies and children outside.

Accountant Zhang pointed to the outside, "Listen, this is a blessing. Your daughter-in-law is like this, I didn't say anything. She behaved generously. Listening to that laughter is not fake. As soon as we came in, we were looking for things, and we were very polite. Pour tea and water, and let the children go in casually. You have a good temper. In-laws, if the children let the two of you rest here, you will come. The children are not distracting you, so you can watch the children more. It's all good child."

Father Zhang was delighted to hear them boasting every sentence. Of course he knew that the young couple was filial, but he couldn't say it, and there was no need to show it off.

It's not that he's bragging, if he asks Jiaojiao to give him five hundred and one thousand, Jiaojiao will definitely take it out without saying a word. If he said that he wanted to eat something, he would not bring a heavy one for a month. And the kid was still worried about him and wanted to take him to the hospital. Even my daughter may not be able to do it, but she will definitely. This is his confidence.

Jiaojiao is different from the two daughter-in-laws above. She had no parents by her side since she was a child, and she really regarded the couple as her own parents.

This kid is also very smart, and he kept blinking at him just now, signaling him to take anyone into the study casually. She even deliberately ran to open the door wide, and the candy and food were brought out immediately, and she said "Dad, do you want anything else?" I'll get it.

No wonder Brother Zhou regarded her as his lifeblood. His Xiaowu is filial, but with Jiaojiao, he is even more filial. A good daughter-in-law has three generations of blessings, and his Xiao Wu's lineage has at least three generations of descendants.

Less than half an hour later, Zhang Guoqing said a few words to the brothers outside, and then went into the house.

As soon as he came in, he smiled and called uncle and uncle one by one, and chatted with several old people respectfully.

Although these old people don't know a few big characters, Zhang Guoqing understands that many of these people's words are the experience taught them by life, which is more practical than books.

Therefore, no matter how old the old man was, he listened carefully. Comparing his heart to his heart, when he is old and his grandchildren behave politely in front of him, he will also give them some insights into their own lives.

These old people in the room and several middle-aged people boasted about Zhang Guoqing.

Zhang Guoqing praised their children by the way. All the way down, to be honest, he said that the other party was stable and knew it well, but he just didn't bother to pay attention.

If he is lazy, he will say that the other party is a smart person who likes to use his brain, like a literati, you can never let him use martial arts. In fact, he has not found a way.

For those who are domineering and troublesome, he will say that the other party is straightforward, has no twists and turns in his heart, will not stab others in the back, and if there is something to say to his face, this is the temperament of a real man.

In short, what he said really made sense, and the old men laughed happily, saying that what Zhang Guoqing said was very reasonable. Also, who would think that their children and grandchildren are not good.

Hearing the voices outside, Zhang Guoqing should have set the table, and stood up, "Come on, you elders come here today, you have to have a drink with my father anyway. There just happens to be seafood at home today, let's have a taste. Dad, you and Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, and the others take your time, I’ll get the wine first. Don’t be afraid if you get drunk, stay here at night, there are plenty of places to sleep.”

Lao Chen and Accountant Zhang looked at each other and smiled. The boy was getting better at talking.

As soon as Zhang Guoqing came out, he saw that two tables had been set up in the living room. A group of children crawled down, making a fuss, and when they saw him coming out, they all stopped and fell silent for an instant.

"Oh, brothers, you guys are really good. It's done so quickly. You wait for me, I'll find good wine for you to taste." Zhou Guoqing pretended not to notice anything unusual, and said cheerfully.

Several men in the village who were older than him laughed out loud, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Some of them punched Zhang Guoqiang and said with a smile, "No wonder the whole county said that Zhang Guoqing was famous for his righteousness. Your boy just now On purpose, right?"

"It depends on how nervous you are. Our little five is very talkative. Ask my elder brother if you don't believe me." Zhang Guoqiang retorted with a smile.

Mother Zhang brought the two daughters-in-law to serve the meals. When Zhang Guoqing came out with the wine jar, he invited everyone to the table.

The meal didn't end until almost three o'clock, and the children followed Xizi to Zhang Ziwen's house, tired of walking, and then came back to eat. In the end the plates were as clean as if they had been washed.

Father Zhang was driving an ox cart, with an old man and a young child sitting on it, and other men walked slowly behind the ox cart. After they left, Mother Zhang and others tidied up the courtyard and closed the gate.

Zhang Guoqing found two horse-drawn carts and was waiting at the door. Zhang's mother took her two daughters-in-law and the other one with their family of three back to the village.
