Chapter 255 Friday

Friday.

After breakfast, Grandma Shen started to get busy.

The granddaughter's parents came to visit her for the first time. The old lady took it very seriously and started making arrangements early in the morning;

She asked Shen Qiuqiu to help take down the old pig's feet hanging from the beams and put them on the stove to burn the skin;

The red charcoal fire burns the surface of the pig's feet black;

The whole yard is filled with the aroma of burnt meat skin.

Li Cunju came to work wearing an apron and smelled the fragrance as soon as she entered the door;

Seeing Grandma Shen roasting pig's feet, she smiled and said, "Hey, Auntie, are you going to have guests at your house today?"

"Yes, Xiaohua's partner's parents are coming to the house for dinner." Grandma Shen smiled and nodded.

The old men and women in the village have nothing to do. They sit at the entrance of the village every day and chat about home affairs. They can find out who went to whose house today, and who went to the market and bought something.

This matter cannot be carried by others, and it is not something that cannot be said. Anyway, people in the village will see it when people come in the afternoon, so it is better to say it openly now.

Li Cunju glanced in the direction of Shen Qiuqiu, smiled knowingly, and whispered: "What, the man is coming to ask for a kiss now?"

Grandma Shen waved her hand, "How can it be so fast? It's just a meeting between the two families and a simple meal."

That being said, the elders of the two families have met, so the matter is pretty much inseparable;

Li Cunju covered her mouth and smiled: "Congratulations, it seems that I can enjoy your little flower's wedding wine this year."

Grandma Shen smiled and said nothing;

She hopes that her granddaughter will start a family soon and have someone to rely on;

But when I thought about her marrying into someone else's family, I felt very reluctant to let her go.

Grandma Shen put the blackened old pig's feet into a large basin filled with water. With a "stab" sound, a puff of white smoke rose up;

The burned pig's feet need to be soaked for a while before they can be washed clean;

Taking advantage of this time, Grandma Shen carried the bamboo basket and prepared to pick up eggs;

Before leaving, he explained: "Xiaohua, lock up Dahuang and don't let him eat my old pig's feet; I will go to the bamboo forest to pick up eggs, and I will catch an old hen and bring it back to make soup."

Whenever important guests came to the house, Grandma Shen would kill chickens to entertain them;

This is the highest courtesy an old lady can give to her guests.

However, Shen Qiuqiu didn't agree and couldn't help but persuade: "Grandma, the chickens are laying eggs these days. We won't eat chickens anymore. I ordered some seafood in the county and will get it back soon. I can use it to entertain guests." Not disrespectful.”

The old hens in the bamboo forest have been fed by grandma for several years. They have been raising them to lay eggs, and she is reluctant to kill them to eat. The old hens that are the most precious to grandma have not allowed rhubarb to go to the bamboo forest recently, just for fear that they will kill the old hens. Too scared to lay eggs.

The old lady refused to listen to her granddaughter, so she walked into the bamboo forest.

Li Cunju on the side smiled and joked: "How can you not kill a chicken when you have a distinguished guest at home? Even if I kill all your chickens, your grandma will be happy with it."

Wang Xiaoling, who had just walked in, listened to half of it and asked with a smile: "What's the happy event? I'm going to kill the chicken early in the morning."

Li Cunju smiled and nuzzled her lips in the direction of Shen Qiuqiu, "Isn't this a happy event? My partner's parents are coming for dinner today."

In the eyes of the older generation, when the male and female families start moving around, it proves that the marriage is a success.

Wang Xiaoling suddenly smiled and narrowed her eyes, "Oh, I'm so happy. Xiaohua, when are you going to do something? Don't forget to treat your aunt to some wedding candy."

"I just came here to have a meal, nothing else." Shen Qiuqiu explained dryly, and then said quickly: "Auntie, please sit down for a while, I have something else to do."

Grandma was not here, so she couldn't handle these aunts alone, so she had to hide in her room.

"Oh yo yo, the little girl is shy!"

The laughter of Li Cunju and Wang Xiaoling came from the yard;

After a while, the villagers came one after another, chatting and laughing together; the protagonist of their discussion was naturally Shen Qiuqiu.

Shen Qiuqiu in the room looked helpless;

Qinghe Village is such a big place, and if something happens to someone’s family, it will spread throughout the village in less than a day;

In fact, when grandma said she would invite Jiang Jincheng’s parents to visit her home, she had already foreseen this outcome;

She also foresees that if she fails to get together with Jiang Jincheng in the future, she may become the laughing stock of the whole village and be criticized and criticized by the villagers;

But she still agreed to grandma;

She is not afraid of what people say, or it could be said that this is her decision, the result of careful consideration;

On the day she went to Grandma Jiang's house for dinner and accepted the red envelope from Jiang Jincheng's mother, Shen Qiuqiu had already made her decision.

Although I have known Jiang Jincheng for a short time and have only been together for a month, there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity between the two from the beginning;

There are always endless topics to talk about, and the three views are in harmony in all aspects, just like old friends reunited after a long absence;

It's very comfortable to be with him, even if you just sit quietly and don't chat, it won't be awkward;

His shoulders are broad and his palms are warm, always giving people a very reassuring feeling;

In short, if you want to choose a person to accompany you for life, then that person must be Jiang Jincheng.

This is the first time Shen Qiuqiu has been moved, the first time she has loved someone;

She didn't know if she was the so-called love brain, able to fall in love with someone so easily;

But I already knew it was him.

"Boom boom boom!"

When Shen Qiuqiu was thinking wildly, a knock on the door brought her back to reality.

"Sister Xiaohua, how many orders are you going to send today?" Wang Gannian asked standing outside the door.

"Wait a moment."

Shen Qiuqiu stood up, picked up the cardboard box on the desk and pushed out the door, "I will send out four hundred orders today. I have already typed up the orders. You can take them and post them."

Wang Gannian took the carton and said, "Okay."

As soon as the door to the room was opened, everyone in the yard looked over;

"Xiaohua, why have you been hiding in the house and not coming out?"

"As the old saying goes, an ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her parents-in-law. Why, a handsome daughter-in-law like you is also afraid of meeting her parents-in-law?"

"Xiaohua, why are you so shy when meeting your parents-in-law? Auntie has experience. Come over here and I'll teach you a lesson."

Immediately, there was another burst of good-natured laughter in the yard.

Shen Qiuqiu blushed suddenly, feeling unhappy but unable to show it.

Grandma Shen, who was killing chickens in the kitchen, heard the noise and ran out quickly. She put her hands on her hips and cursed with a smile: "What are you doing? My little girl is thin-skinned. You are not allowed to bully her. If you annoy her, be careful that she will slap you." wages.”

Everyone laughed again;

This time, no one made fun of Shen Qiuqiu;

Shen Qiuqiu adjusted her mood, walked over generously, found a place to sit down, and started packing strawberries;

However, there were always people around who were looking at her secretly and whispering to her in low voices.

Shen Qiuqiu shook her head helplessly;

The people in the village are too idle, with limited knowledge and culture, and no entertainment activities. They can only have fun chatting about family affairs;

If nothing unexpected happens, they can talk about this matter for three days and three nights.
