Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 499 Lively Evening

In the study outside the front yard, Gu Erzhu, Zhou Sishun, Ma Dazhuang, and Gu Wenxuan were chatting about family matters, but were interrupted by the laughter coming from the backyard.

A moment.

Hearing that it seemed like his wife was leading the laughter in the backyard, Ma Dazhuang said with emotion, "My Hu Niu's mother has many relatives, and she can chat with your wife."

"This is the benefit of living close to each other. We can get to know each other better and become close friends. Even if we are not a family, we will become one."

Zhou Changshun, you are so good, you just interrupted me. Gu Erzhu smiled and nodded, "In the end, I have good vision and chose good in-laws for my two sons."

This makes sense.

Although Gu Erzhu did not forget to praise himself as well, Ma Dazhuang and Zhou Sishun still laughed out loud but felt unhappy in their hearts.

Chatting and laughing, they thought it was pointless to just sit there and drink tea, so they decided to order some good wine and food, and have a hot pot before it got dark.

The Gu family's mutton hotpot, from the soup base to the dipping sauce and ingredients, can now be considered a specialty. Unlike Zhou Sishun, Ma Dazhuang has been craving for it for some time.

Before, Gu Erzhu was not at home. He felt that as a grown man, he was different from his wife, so it would be inappropriate for him to visit his daughter and grandson.

But whether it was a ready-made hot pot, or the soup base and dipping sauce, even if his wife packed it up and took it home, it tasted different for some reason.

The food was served at this moment. Without waiting for Gu Erzhu to say hello, Ma Dazhuang picked up a mutton roll with chopsticks and put it into the boiling copper charcoal pot soup.

Then he dipped it into the two small plates of dipping sauce in front of him, put it in his mouth, and before he swallowed it, he kept sighing vaguely, "This is the taste."

Gu Erzhu was very happy, thinking that there was no difference, the mutton was still from the Ma family farm, but the tofu skin and bean sprouts were even more delicious than the mutton slices.

Another person who has a similar taste to him is Zhou Sishun. Even Zhou Sishun himself never dreamed that one day he would be so tired of eating meat.

The two men were afraid that Ma Dazhuang would get sick of eating too much mutton, so while they were eating and chatting, they did not forget to give Ma Dazhuang a bite of their favorite food.

Chatting and laughing, with no one to disturb them, the three of them enjoyed their meal and drink even more happily. Of course, they were unaware that their wives were also gathered in the backyard, drinking a little.

When he left for the village school to visit Mr. Zhou and his classmate Gu Wenxuan, and then brought his brother-in-law Xiaohe back home, it was already late.

At the dinner table in the front yard, there were not only Gu Erzhu's three relatives, but also Gu Erlang, Gu Sanzhu and Gu Laosi. As for the backyard?
The liveliness there was no less than that in the front yard; before he even stepped through the Moon Gate, the adults were laughing and the children were shouting, it was truly astonishing.

After walking a few more steps, the laughter became louder. What was rare was that one could also hear his wife's laughter. I wonder who made his wife laugh out loud this time.

Wow, there are a room full of old ladies, aunties, young wives and girls, and little kids. No wonder his wife also came to join in the fun.

Gu Wenxuan held his brother-in-law's hand and greeted them one by one. After calling everyone, he left his brother-in-law behind, took his wife with him, left the main hall and returned to the west wing.

"Why is the old lady here? Didn't she say she was feeling unwell and was lying on the kang? Did my parents invite her and the old man to our house for dinner again?"

"Pretty much. My eldest brother came back to the old house to check the old lady's pulse, and then I don't know how it happened, but the old lady was brought back by my eldest brother alone."

Gu Wenxuan shook his head and smiled, "You scared me. Big brother is really careful. If you have a cold, you can't get close to me since your resistance is weak now."

"Of course I would be careful about this, but I was not paying attention for a moment. There are two mothers, they are more nervous than you, not to mention the eldest sister is here." Speaking of Zhou Daya, Zhou Banxia subconsciously glanced out the window, "When the eldest sister came in the evening, she was worried about my three-month pregnancy and said a lot of taboos.

She and my mother thought I knew nothing, and they both passed on their experiences to me separately, which almost embarrassed me to death. Fortunately, the old lady came.

She came, and I was just about to go and pay my respects, so I was lucky enough to escape death, but I didn't expect that only the old lady came, and why didn't the old man come with her. "

Gu Wenxuan's heart moved, "Is it possible to have sex now?"

"...You know too much." Zhou Banxia held his forehead with his hand, "Hurry up, the food is getting cold. What took you so long to come back?"

"Look at how you change the subject. Your speech skills are not good, wife." Gu Wenxuan said with a smile and quickly took off his outer robe, "I was pulled by a few classmates to sit for a while.

I had originally invited them to my home for dinner, but they were all too polite and refused to come, so we just chatted at the village school.

"Isn't Xiao He also studying in the village? Your great grandfather just happened to test him, so we followed him to review what we learned, so we came back late."

In fact, it was not that late. It gets dark quickly in winter, so it seemed later than usual. Zhou Banxia just asked casually, but she didn't expect Gu Wenxuan to explain in detail.

“As for why only the old lady came, if I’m not mistaken, the old lady and the old man must have had a quarrel this time.

They had quarreled before, and when the old lady lost the quarrel, she would take her clothes and go back to her parents' home..."

know.

I heard you say that the old lady will take the money box back to her parents' home. If the old man doesn't give in, she won't come back, and it won't work even if the son goes to ask her to come back.

Very brave.

"...Now that my parents are not still alive, it is not easy to go back to my mother's home. I have been lying on the kang in a rage and cannot get up. It just so happens that my eldest brother gave me a way out.

If she doesn't come down, it will be difficult to save face because it is her family's scandal and she has been so strong all her life that she has to give in to the old man. She can't do that. What is she afraid of?

This is the confidence that comes from having many children and their filial piety. Oda doesn't dare to do that. She is even worried that our mother will laugh at her if she wants to come along.

After all, some of her words were said too early, and she often took advantage of the fact that someone in her mother's family bullied our mother. Even though our mother would never laugh at her in person, she still felt guilty.

Like the old man, he feels guilty. Isn't he worried that if he comes with the old lady and our father doesn't pay much attention to him, he will lose face.

His current mentality is that it's okay to embarrass himself in front of his family, but in front of outsiders he still has to be the boss who has the final say, competing with himself.

Well, let’s not talk about them anymore. They can do whatever they want. You are eating with them tonight. If you haven’t eaten well, how about eating with me?”

Zhou Banxia readily agreed, "Of course. It's a rare treat for everyone, so the pickled vegetable and tofu soup wasn't on the table tonight. I'll eat less on purpose and wait for you to come back to eat together."

"Thank you, you are really my good wife. You have been waiting for me to come back for the stinky pickled vegetable and tofu soup. It is so good this time, you won't suddenly not want to eat it again?"

Zhou Banxia laughed, "We share happiness and hardships. No matter how smelly it is, you have to eat with me. Stop changing the subject and think that I will suddenly stop eating."

Gu Wenxuan's catchphrase came out casually, "You are so smart, you are worthy of being my wife. You guessed it again. Today is the sixth day of the New Year, my wife."
