A trip starting from the courtyard

Chapter 806 here, here

The news was so sudden that Zhou Zhigang was in a daze. After returning to Jichun this year, he and his eldest son secretly mentioned the matter of meeting Hao Dongmei's parents, but there was no reply after more than a week. The peak turns.

"Cough cough, everyone be quiet."

After the room quieted down, Zhou Zhigang assigned a task, "Bingkun, go to the supply and marketing cooperative to cut a few catties of fresh beef and mutton right away, and it's best to bring back one or two seasonal vegetables."

Hao Dongmei hurriedly said, "Dad, you don't need to prepare dinner. My parents are here mainly to meet you and Mom, and to recognize the door by the way."

"That's it," Zhou Zhigang thought for a while, and asked Zhou Rong and his wife to clean up the house and wipe the glass, "Bingyi, you sweep the yard and the road at the door. Bingkun, go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy a new set." Glasses, buy some candies and chocolates, pick the expensive ones."

Although everyone felt that Zhou's father was making a big fuss, they didn't object to Hao Dongmei's identity as her father.Wang Lidong also readily agreed, he just wanted to see if Father Hao would release the Zhou family pigeons this time, the Zhou family even cleaned the public toilet next to them in the TV series, but in the end they didn't come at all Have fun.

Zhou Bingyi changed his overcoat and put on a half-worn padded jacket, "I didn't expect Xiao Xigua and the others to go back so early. If I knew it, I would have come here earlier."

Zhou's mother smiled and said, "On the sixth day, your father is going to Bingkun's house. If you want to see Xiao Xigua and the others, you can go with him."

Hao Dongmei explained aloud, "It's my parents who want to see Little Watermelon and the others."

Zhou's father asked curiously, "Dongmei, your parents also know about Little Watermelon?"

Hao Dongmei nodded with a smile. Triplets are rare, and there are three boys, and they are relatives of her own family. After her parents knew about it, they often mentioned it.

"It's useless if you come back early, the boss is here today, the second and third are sick and didn't come."

Hao Dongmei asked concerned, "What's wrong, is the child okay?"

Wang Lidong got off the kang, "I have a small cold, it will be fine in two days."

Zhou Rong suddenly said, "Dongmei's parents rarely come here, isn't the boss not sick, just take it over."

Damn, is that what people should say?

Wang Lidong glanced at her coldly, without any warmth in his eyes, Zhou Rong felt chills all over his body, couldn't help shivering, he threw down the peanut in his hand, "It's more than 20 degrees below zero, you let a A child who is less than two years old, tossing back and forth for dozens of miles? I think I have not treated Feng Yue badly in the past few years. Sheep have the kindness to kneel and suckle, and crows have the righteousness to feed back. Some people are even worse than animals!"

Zhou Rong's pale face flushed instantly, and after she finished speaking, she also realized that she had said something wrong, and she regretted it, but she couldn't hold back her face and apologized.

Feng Huacheng hurriedly came out to smooth things over, Wang Lidong put on his coat, "I just remembered, I have something to do at home, let's go."

Before leaving, he told Feng Huacheng that before the eighth day of the lunar new year, he would send all Feng Yue's things to the old house, "Our family temple is small, and we can't compete with yours. From now on, our two families will stop communicating."

"Boom!" After the room was quiet for a while as the door was closed, Zhou Rong argued in a low voice, "I really don't mean anything else."

Don't say it just now, what's the use of talking about it now, Feng Huacheng pulled his daughter-in-law, turned to look at Zhou's father and said, "Dad, it's getting late, you can rearrange the tasks, let's move quickly."

Zhou Zhigang took a deep look at Zhou Rong, and put the cigarette pg in the ashtray, "I'll sweep the yard and the road in front of the door, and the lesbians clean up the house and turn it into a supply and marketing agency to buy a set of glasses."

Zhou Bingyi said, "Dad, what about me?"

"Your task is the most difficult. Clean the men's room." Zhou Bingyi's face turned green slightly, and he suddenly missed his third brother, "Dad, where is the women's room?"

Hao Dongmei looked around, now there are four women in the Zhou family including Feng Yue, her parents are visiting again today, Hao Dongmei snatched the honorable task of cleaning the women's toilet, the couple put on masks and put on ragged jackets, Put on plastic rubber shoes, take tools, and smile at each other. Husband and wife sing along, but it complements each other.

Wang Lidong rode his bicycle for more than half an hour, and returned to his home ten miles away.

"I'm back." Fu Lili reached out and patted the snow on his body, "Is everything done?"

"Don't tell me you almost forgot." Wang Lidong took out a bundle of banknotes from his coat pocket, and Fu Lili took the thick stack, "How many are here?"

"1830, not a lot."

Fu Lili was surprised, "Your second sister came back this time and brought so much money? Are you afraid of being stolen?"

"Zhou Rong took out 700, and the remaining 1100 was paid by my father."

Fu Lili changed color slightly.

Wang Lidong asked inexplicably, "What's wrong?"

"Your father gave Little Watermelon and the others five yuan as New Year's money each."

When I went to Zhou's house today, Zhou's father loved the little watermelon so much, he kept yelling about it, and he kept holding it and refused to let go.

For Chinese New Year, New Year's money is indispensable.After she got home, she opened the red envelopes. There were three red envelopes, each containing five yuan.

In this day and age, New Year's money is generally one or two cents, three or four cents, and five yuan for New Year's money, which is considered very generous.

If you don't know about Feng Yue, hello, hello, hello everyone.

But everything is afraid of comparison, granddaughter 1100 yuan, direct grandson, five yuan per person, although money can't represent everything, but no matter how nice the words are, it is not as true as the actual actions.

Wang Lidong thought about it for a moment, put his arms around his wife and smiled, "I thought it was something. Didn't I tell you that since he was young, he only had Zhou Rong in his eyes, and Zhou Bingyi was the next one. Me, I'm just a Passerby.

In the future, you will regard him as an ordinary relative of my family. If you think about it this way, five yuan for the New Year's Eve is not a lot. "

"Forget it." Fu Lili turned around and hung up her coat, but she still couldn't help muttering a few words, how can someone be such a grandfather, he's too biased!
"By the way, let's not talk about the second sister and the second sister in the future, we don't have such relatives in our family."

"What happened?"

Wang Lidong briefly explained what happened in the Zhou family, "Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng don't have any good things, so there's no need to deal with this kind of people."

After Fu Lili heard this, although she didn't say anything, she stopped referring to Zhou Rong as the second sister.

"What about the children?"

"Sleeping in the room."

"I'll go and have a look." Wang Lidong went up to the second floor. The three children were sleeping soundly. He checked the condition of the second and third children. Their body temperature was normal. After covering the eldest with a loose quilt, he turned and went down to the living room. .

"What about Dudu?"

Fu Lili brought a cup of hot tea, "Accompanying my parents to visit relatives."

this girl.

Usually, the old couple strings up relatives and asks Xu Dudu to accompany them, and they will find various reasons to push it away, but every New Year, the old couple will follow behind even if they don't call her.

When it was almost dinner time, the old man and his wife returned home with Xu Dudu, and Xu Dudu came to his side with a happy expression, knowing that today was a good day.

"How many red envelopes did you receive?"

"Thump, thump, thump," Xu Dudu took out a few red envelopes from his pocket, and waved them in front of him, "It's five yuan in total!"

Wang Lidong rolled his eyes, was he so stupid, but he didn't expose this little trick, and encouraged him, "That's right, keep working hard tomorrow." Then he pointed to the small wad of money on the tea table, "You counseling fees."

"What tutoring fee?" When Xu Dudu spoke, he had already counted the money, and in a few seconds, he counted the last one, which was a total of 180 yuan.

"Your labor fee for tutoring Feng Yue's homework is a total of three years, five yuan per month."

Unexpectedly, the help was not for nothing. The follower who used to be an eyesore suddenly became amiable. Xu Dudu hurriedly asked, "Where is Yueyue? When will you come back?"

"Not coming back."

"Ah? Not coming back? Is Yueyue going to the capital with his parents?"

"No matter where we go, our family doesn't welcome this family anyway."

This is not right.

Is this to sever the sibling relationship?
Several people were a little puzzled. Although Wang Lidong didn't want to see Feng Yue's family, he never said such harsh words. Fu Lili explained the reason, and Xu Dudu hummed after listening, "How can there be such a bad person?" ? Or relatives!"

"It's fine not to hang out." Fu Lili didn't continue this topic, but asked Wang Lidong, what's the plan for the vacant room?
Feng Yue's room has thirteen square meters, not too big but not too small. After Wang Lidong thought about it, he decided to change it into a game room. This way, after having a fixed place, the living room can be quiet and save the fuss all day long. Yes, I asked Fu Lili and the father-in-law for their opinions, and they didn't have any opinions.

"Dudu, thank you for your hard work. Pack up all Feng Yue's things." He raised a finger as he spoke, which meant that it cost one yuan for hard work.

"Okay uncle." Xu Dudu agreed and sat down for a while. Seeing his mother walk into the kitchen, he hurriedly said hello and was about to slip upstairs.

"Dudu!"

Fu Lili did not know when she appeared at the stairs, grabbed her daughter, confiscated all the red envelopes, and the 180 yuan tutoring fee, and then cashed back 5 yuan. Seeing her daughter's pitiful face, she drew another 1 yuan of
After two o'clock in the afternoon, the neighbors near the Zhou family's old house were surprised to find that the Zhou family didn't know that their brains were flooded, or that they drank too much collectively. It's too late to stay at home and brag and play pouts, and one by one rolled up their sleeves Started cleaning.

Sweeping the yard and cleaning the glass didn't matter, but Zhou Bingyi and his wife even cleaned the public toilets.

This kind of abnormal behavior immediately attracted a lot of people who are accustomed to watching the excitement.

How could this kind of thing be unheard of? Quick-mouthed 'Qiao Chunyan' sneaked into Zhou's house as a god-in-law, and heard a big news from Zhou's mother that the second in command of the province was coming to Zhou's house as a guest.

With such a great opportunity in front of her, Qiao Chunyan would not forgive herself if she missed it.

"Godmother, you rest, I'll come, I'll come." Qiao Chunyan snatched the rag from Zhou's mother's hand, and carefully wiped the glass of Zhou's house. Her meticulous and serious appearance made the glass wiper squatting aside Zhou Rong was a little ashamed.

The news that the second in command was coming to the Zhou family swept across the entire optical film like the speed of light.

After a while, the Zhou family was as lively as a vegetable market. Those who had a good relationship with each other entered the small courtyard to help with hygiene, while those with a normal relationship stood outside the small courtyard and chatted. Zhou Bingyi and his wife were also kicked out of the public toilet by several neighbors .

Gong Weize, the film policeman in charge of the optical film, is chatting with relatives and friends at home, 365 days a year, just during the Chinese New Year, and can be comfortable for a few days.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open with a 'bang', and a gust of cold wind blew into the house. Nephew Gong Bin shouted, "Uncle, something happened to the Zhou family!"

"噗" Gong Wei bounced up all over, "Fighted or was stolen?"

"The Zhou family is coming here."

Gong Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly the word "Da Guan" floated in his mind, it could not be. He hurriedly asked his nephew who was Da Guan, but unfortunately his nephew was not very good at thinking, so he couldn't find anything after asking twice. Immediately put on his coat and cap, and walked out of his yard amidst the complaints of his wife.

Just grab someone and inquire about it, and you will know the situation. The second in command is going to visit the photogram. If you can show your face, Gong Wei's heart stopped for half a second. sweat rolls
Walking into Zhou's house, seeing more than a dozen people crowded in the room, he immediately found Zhou's father, whispered a few words in a low voice, the chaos made it uncomfortable for any leader to see, and it was not safe.

Father Zhou slapped his head, he only wanted to make a good impression on his in-laws, and didn't want to make such a big commotion, but the neighbors still came to help, and he couldn't say anything about driving people away.

When the two of them got together, Gong Wei stepped forward and invited all the idlers out of the small courtyard of Zhou's family.

Not long after, the head of the police station rushed to Zhou's house, and shouted at Gong Wei. He didn't report such a big matter, and the leaders of the street and district appeared one after another.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, amidst the eager anticipation of the Zhou family members and the residents of the optical film, a black car slowly drove into the optical film.
Father Hao looked at the document in his hand without raising his head and said, "Xiao Huang, how long is it?"

Secretary Huang immediately reported, "We'll be there soon, but."

"But what?"

Before Secretary Huang could answer, Father Hao had already seen the answer. People were standing on both sides of the street, and a few people dressed as waiters were standing not far away. His expression changed slightly, "What is this for?"

Secretary Huang in the co-pilot seat turned his head and said, "Senior officer, Bingyi and Dongmei are just ahead."

Hao's mother saw that his wife's expression was not right, she was afraid that he would say the word 'go back', so she patted the back of his hand lightly, "Since we're all here, let's get out of the car and see you, don't make things difficult for Dongmei." The driver stops.

Seeing the car stop, Zhou Bingyi hurried forward to pull the door, and when he saw the old man with a straight face, his heart skipped a beat.

In fact, not long after starting work in the afternoon, more and more neighbors gathered to watch, and he felt that he had done something stupid.

Father-in-law hates fanfare the most, and every time he travels, he will especially tell you to drive lightly *obediently, and the reception party is not allowed to entertain *teacher *dong* crowds, and this time he came to visit his house as a private person and whispered, "Dad."

Father Hao nodded slightly, and after getting off the car, he shook hands with several waiters who had been waiting for a long time. After exchanging a few words of greeting, he waved everyone away.

At this moment, he is not a leader, but an ordinary member of the public, an ordinary member of the public, and he is here today not for video cleaning work, but to visit his in-laws.

Father Zhou paced back and forth in the kitchen, and looked outside the house from time to time. It was almost five o'clock and the sun was almost setting, but there was no news of his in-laws.

Zhou's mother was a little dizzy, and told him to stay in the back room, and someone would notify him if there was any news.

Suddenly there were several shouts from outside the house, "Here we come. Here we come."

"Hurry up!" Father Zhou hurriedly yelled into the room, "Here we come, come out quickly."

Zhou's family appeared in the small courtyard one by one, and Zhou's father specially organized the team, with the low ones standing in front and the tall ones standing in the back row. Qiao Chunyan was holding a camera and standing by the small courtyard, taking Picking up the camera and posing for a pose, it attracted the attention of many young and middle-aged men.

Gong Wei and a dozen policemen stood outside the courtyard, trying to maintain order.

"coming."

Zhou Zhigang saw a couple not far away, accompanied by the eldest son and daughter-in-law, slowly walking towards Zhou's house, and hurriedly dragged his wife to meet them.

The two sides stood still at the gate of the small courtyard, and Zhou Zhigang held Father Hao's hand tightly with both hands, "Happy first*, happy first*, happy new year!"

Father Hao smiled and stretched out his hand to shake, "Don't, you are Bingyi's father" and said, looking at Zhou's mother who was aside, "Is this Bingyi's mother?"

Mother Zhou said excitedly, "Yes, yes, I am Bingyi's mother."

"I'm Dongmei's father," Hao's father introduced himself, and then introduced his wife, "This is Dongmei's mother."

The two sides exchanged a few pleasantries, and Zhou's father brought up the past more than ten years ago. At that time, Hao's father was still a deputy senior official, and once they came to watch and wipe them. At that time, Hao's father went to their house to sit for a while. Zhou Zhigang almost slapped his ears, and was busy talking, "Come into the room, come in and sit down."

At this time, Secretary Huang who was standing aside suddenly interrupted, "Senior official, there is still a quarter of an hour before the condolence activities will begin. It will take a quarter of an hour from the optical film to the Second Hospital."

Hao's father raised his left wrist and looked at his watch. Hao's mother was about to speak when Zhou Zhigang said wittily, "The chief executive's job is a big deal, so I won't delay you."

Father Hao reached out his hand and shook Zhou Zhigang again, "I'm really sorry, we have time some other day, let's get together again."

Zhou Zhigang said with a smile, "Okay, let's meet again when we have time, we will meet again when we have time."

The neighbors around were a little dumbfounded when they saw the boss turn around and walk back. They didn't even enter the house yet, so why did they leave.

"Why don't you go into the house?"

"I don't know, what's going on?"

The neighbor who was closest said immediately, "The senior officials are going to a meeting."

"What, let's go now? Don't sit for a meeting?"

"Playing, this is!!"

"What kind of in-laws is this? They don't even enter the door!"

"Whatever your status is, it's very good to be able to come."

"Fart! I don't want this kind of in-laws, no matter how big they are. It's a joke!"

The Zhou family escorted Hao Dongmei's parents into the car, watched the car gradually go away, and even the taillights could not be seen, Zhou's father put down his waving hands, and hugged Feng Yue, whose face was pale with cold, "Let's go home .”
