Nine Hundred and Thirty-Eight. Childish
On the way home, Zheng Kui was so angry that he kept mumbling. Although a few dozen yuan was not much, it made him very embarrassed.
"Okay, stop talking, just pay attention next time." Zheng Shan was speechless after listening to the whole story.
What about this little money?
"No, I don't feel sorry for the money, but I am angry. When have I, Zheng Kui, had money stolen? If he is caught by me, I will have to break his hand." Zheng Kui was still angry.
Zheng Shan didn't bother to pay attention to him.
After arriving home, I started preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner. Many things need to be prepared in advance.
None of the elders in Zhengshan came to help. The key was that they were kicked out every time by the aunt and the others. .
A few people strolled around the village and then found a place to play cards and squat down.
Zheng Kui immediately came to the table to play, and Zheng Shan soon followed.
When it was time to finish eating, Zheng Shan counted the money and found that he had won a lot, as much as two thousand yuan.
"Are you all rich? Why are you playing so big now?" Zheng Shan felt it was nothing at first, but now he found that these people were playing big.
Zheng Rencai had been playing here for a long time. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Brother Shan, don't worry, anyone who can play here will not be short of this money."
This card game was organized by Zheng Rencai. He knew very well who could bid and who could not.
Don't play cards and wipe out other people's wealth, then don't even think about it this year. Zheng Rencai can't do such a thing.
Zheng Shan didn't say anything after hearing this. It was best this way.
"Go home and eat." Zheng Shan kicked Zheng Kui's stool.
The two of them were not at the same table. Zheng Kui was having fun at this time. Hearing this, he said: "You go back first, I will go back later."
"What did you say? I didn't hear clearly. Say it again." Zheng Shan said.
Zheng Kui:..........
"That's it, I'll go back when it's over." Zheng Kui quickly changed his mind.
Soon Zheng Kui finished his sentence, and Wen Jie and Zheng Weijun had already left.
On the way back, Zheng Shan educated Zheng Kui, "Don't indulge in this kind of thing, otherwise..."
Before Zheng Shan could speak, he was interrupted by Zheng Kui, "I know, break my legs? I understand."
"You're still trying to talk, right?" Zheng Shan kicked him over.
Zheng Kui ducked away with a smile, "Brother, don't worry, I only play during the Chinese New Year. Do you think I have played at other times?"
"Just know it yourself."
...........
On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, the whole family began to get busy. Zheng Shan and the others were not idle at all, and they cleaned the house again.
"Sister Yan, you're here." Lao Wu shouted happily when he saw Zheng Yan coming.
Except for the first few days, Lao Wu rarely went out to play with his original friends.
Most of the friends she had good friends with in the past were married at this time.
Moreover, the two parties had no common topics to talk about. They mostly chatted awkwardly together. Gradually, Lao Wu rarely passed by.
Zheng Yan had just come back a few days ago, and Lao Wu went to play with her when she had nothing to do. However, this was the first time Zheng Yan came back to Zhengshan.
"Yanzi, I heard that you came back alone this year?" Zheng Shan asked.
Zheng Yan nodded and said, "Well, originally we were planning to come back together to celebrate the New Year, but suddenly there were some things in his hometown that he needed to go back to deal with, so he didn't come back. We will come back together next year to celebrate the New Year."
"Oh, that's it. I thought you two had a fight." Lin Meihua said with a smile.
Zheng Yan also smiled and said: "There are no quarrels, and how are we living our lives? Bumps and bumps are inevitable, but basically it's nothing serious."
"That's good. By the way, you didn't bring the child back, right?" Lin Meihua asked.
Zheng Yan said: "No, the child's grandparents were so worried that they took him back."
"You said you had a baby, but you didn't tell us. You are treating us like outsiders." Zheng Shan said.
Zheng Yan gave birth to a child this year. Zheng Shan and the others only found out after they came back, and Zheng Yan didn't tell them.
Zheng Yan said with a smile: "I originally wanted to hold a full moon party, but we were both busy at work at the time, so we simply didn't do it."
"And you weren't at home at that time, were you?"
Zheng Shan said: "Whether I am at home or not is not the reason for you not to tell us. I am not at home, isn't your sister-in-law at home?"
In fact, Zheng Yan mainly didn't want to trouble Zheng Shan's family, and she also didn't want to put too much pressure on her husband.
Zheng Yan knows Zheng Shan's brothers well. If there is a full moon party or something, Zheng Shan and the others will definitely give a lot of red envelopes.
This will put pressure on your husband.
And Zheng Yan also felt that she had troubled Zheng Shan and the others too much, so she chose not to say anything at that time.
Zheng Yan and Zheng Shan chatted and soon went into the kitchen to help. Compared to Lao Wu and Yan Qingqing, Zheng Yan was the one who could really do the work.
Most of the meals on this day were made together, and some fried things were heated up and eaten.
On New Year's Eve, every household began to smell fireworks from early morning, and the scent soon spread throughout the village.
Zheng Shan and the others didn't go out anymore. They just started working at home. They were still able to do some chores.
At about six o'clock in the afternoon, all the food was finally ready, and there were two large tables full of food.
And it’s not the same, the dishes on both tables are different.
This is also the reason why it took so long to prepare. It used to look like two big tables of dishes, but in fact it was just one table because the dishes on both tables were the same.
After the dishes were served, Zheng Weimin couldn't wait to open the wine bottles, which were all brought back from Zhengshan Wine Cellar.
As soon as I opened it, a smell of wine spread out, and the old man's eyes lit up.
Now the old lady has already started to control his drinking, so during the Chinese New Year, the old man can have a hearty meal.
And only during the Chinese New Year, Lao Nai doesn't care about him. As for other festivals, although Lao Nai gives him wine, she won't give him too much.
Especially after the old man got sick before, I stopped giving him a drink.
Even today, the old lady said, "You can only drink two cups, and you can't drink more."
The old man was a little unhappy, "You old woman, can you not spoil the fun? It's Chinese New Year, what's wrong with me drinking?"
"If you drink, don't go back." The old lady said calmly.
"I won't come back if I don't come back. My three sons don't have a place to live anymore?" the old man said angrily.
Seeing the two of them arguing like children, Zheng Shan and the others just held back their laughter and watched the show without interrupting.
