Rebirth of the poor elder sister-in-law

Chapter 103 New Year's Eve
Liu Man'er asked Ye Feng and the others, and they all said that they hadn't visited the two aunts' house for a long time, at least for several years. In the past, Fang took them there, but they seemed to be unwelcome.

So this time, none of the children like Ye Qingye Feng Yehe were willing to go, there was no other way, Fang could only send Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan to the house of these two aunts.

The eldest aunt and the second aunt were married in the same town, one was in the town and the other was in the village. The town next door was not too far away, but it was only ten miles away. The time has come.

Going to the aunt's house first, the aunt was very enthusiastic when she saw Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan coming, and repeatedly invited Liu Man'er to the house.

Liu Man'er looked at the smile on her face, why did she feel a little unreal, that she was really so enthusiastic about the two of them?

Oh, Liu Man'er turned her head and saw the things in Ye Yuan's hands, although there were not many, they were still passable, well, the reason why they called themselves to come to the house was mainly for gifts?
No matter what, this aunt's family runs a grocery store, and it's normal for people who do business to be shrewd and enthusiastic.

After Liu Man'er arrived at the aunt's house, she looked around and found that their house was quite nice.

Their family lived in the town, so the yard was not as big as Liu Man's house, but it was not bad. A pear tree was planted in the middle of the yard, and a well was dug. Auntie warmly asked Liu Man'er to sit in the house, and served them The tea is poured with great enthusiasm.

"It's rare to come here and eat some melons and fruits." The aunt asked her daughter to bring a plate of eight treasures.

Liu Man'er saw a seven or eight-year-old little girl, about the same age as Ye He, this little girl was tidy and tidy, with a double bun on her head, with two silk flowers on it, very cute.

The little girl timidly brought things to the table, and the aunt kept letting Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan eat. Liu Man'er just wanted to reach out for a longan because she remembered what Fang said. Wherever you go, the first thing you want to eat must be something with a good meaning.

Liu Man'er didn't realize that the aunt's house had dates, so she could eat longan, but she just picked it up and nodded, but found that the longan in their house was threaded through, Liu Man'er could only put the thing down resentfully up.

Well, I heard that this longan is a bit expensive, so some people will string it up, which means that they don't give it to the guests, but this aunt's family runs a grocery store, so is there still a shortage of this thing?

Forget it, don't eat longan, let her eat a peanut, peanut, raw flower, good meaning, just picked it up, only to find that the peanut is also strung together with a thread.

Liu Man'er took a closer look, and it seemed that except for a plate of snow peas, a plate of melon seeds, and a plate of dried sweet potatoes, everything else was strung together with threads.

Liu Man'er actually likes sweet potatoes quite a bit, but after seeing so many things strung together with strings, she is no longer in the mood to eat anymore.

If the dried sweet potatoes are not sweet, wouldn't it affect her fortune for the new year?

Then look at Ye Yuan beside him, he sat there straight up, he didn't intend to take this thing at all, when Liu Man'er looked at him, he cast a look at Liu Man'er that you understand.

Liu Man'er was speechless in an instant, maybe this has always been the style of this aunt's family.

Forget it, she is not short of this food, besides, she is full at home in the morning, and she is not hungry now, but the aunt is still saying in Liu Man'er's ear: "My nephew, why don't you eat it?" ,eat more."

Liu Man'er really wanted to say, you are all strung together with strings, how can I eat this?If others saw it, they would say that I was rude.

It's just that it's New Year's Eve, and she didn't want to affect her mood, so she endured it. After a while, Ye Yuan's uncle came over. He looked very honest. After seeing Ye Yuan and the two, he was enthusiastic. The two greet each other.

Ye Yuan and Liu Man'er also paid New Year's greetings to him, so he came over and sat down, as if to accompany the guests, chatting about household chores and so on, this New Year's day, just to make it lively, while talking, he stretched out his hand to take the table Coincidentally, he was also holding longan.

As soon as she picked it up, the whole string rose up, Liu Man'er looked at her uncle's face, and felt so happy in her heart.

"Xiu Gu, what are you doing, you put all these things together, what does this guest eat?" the eldest uncle said a little unhappy.

"Oh, my nephew, nephew and daughter-in-law are all polite, not to mention, my mother's family is rich now, they won't send us these two longan at all." The aunt said and looked at Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan, said: "Do you think so?"

"Of course not!" Liu Man'er was no longer polite to her this time, and she also imitated her aunt's smile and said: "Our family is not bad. Your two longan is a trivial matter, but auntie, you treat me like this." The courtesy of the guest is too good, if you put all these things together, you are deliberately not letting us eat."

Hearing Liu Man'er's words, the aunt's face changed a few times, and then she began to use the soft policy to tell her own difficulties: "Why, you kid, don't misunderstand the aunt, it's not easy to make money, don't you It seems that we are in this business, but we know more about the difficulties involved, and the longan is expensive, almost a penny for each."

"Yeah, so we didn't blame you." Liu Man'er said, "I was just joking. If there is nothing else, we will leave first, and we will go to the second aunt's house later."

"It's not in a hurry, we'll leave after dinner." The aunt said quickly.

"No, it's getting late, we can go to the second aunt's house for dinner later." Liu Man'er said, although she said so, she didn't plan to go to any family for dinner anyway. No plan to keep them for dinner.

"It's okay, let's eat at my house, don't you think the food at my aunt's house is not delicious?"

But this aunt has been sitting with Ye Yuan and herself, she didn't cook at all, and she likes to say, as if she wants to appear very enthusiastic and generous, she will take all the face.

Liu Man'er was so angry that she really wanted to stay and eat. After eating a few bowls of rice from their house, this aunt must feel very distressed.

But forget it, don't get angry with her and make things difficult for yourself, if she gives herself a few overnight buns later, or cooks all the dishes that can only be seen but not eaten, then she will really vomit.

"Come on, you two stay for dinner. I haven't been here for several years. I've prepared all the meals." Liu Man'er was about to refuse and leave just now, but at this time, a woman in her 50s came from behind. poke your head out.

The hair on her head was already gray and her face was full of wrinkles, but she tidied it up very neatly. When she looked at Ye Yuan and Liu Man'er, she was smiling, looking quite sincere.

"This must be the mother-in-law?" Liu Man'er asked.

"That's right, both of you are relatives. They haven't been here for so many years, so how could they leave without eating?" The woman walked across the threshold to pull Liu Man'er.

Liu Man'er couldn't refuse, she glanced at Ye Yuan, and was pulled in by this woman.

The woman let the aunt's two children in to serve the dishes, and at the same time pulled Liu Man'er and said, "Why don't you come to your aunt's house, you child, they are all relatives, so you should see them often."

As she said that, she looked at Auntie again, and said, "Guy Xiu, you are really serious. Why don't the guests come with me? I was just playing at the neighbor's house. If Laogui hadn't told me that there were guests in the house, I wouldn't Haven't come back yet."

"It's my daughter-in-law's fault, mainly because I don't want to disturb my mother." The eldest aunt said quickly.

Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan had no choice but to sit at the table at the woman's invitation. After the food was served, Liu Man'er saw that the food was pretty good. They ate white rice, with fish and meat, and the meat was finely sliced. It is also a fish block, which means it is edible.

After everyone was seated, the woman took out two purses from her bosom, gave one to Ye Yuan and Liu Man'er, and said, "It's rare to come here, to be happy."

"How embarrassing." Liu Man'er quickly refused. If the aunt had given her the purse, she would have accepted it long ago, but it was given to her by her mother-in-law. She really couldn't take it. How could she want one? Old man stuff.

"Take it." The woman took Liu Man'er's hand and said, "My daughter-in-law, I can go anywhere, but there are some things I can't figure out, but we are all relatives, and we need to come and go frequently. Come and play."

After Liu Man'er heard the woman's words, she subconsciously glanced at her aunt, the smile on her face couldn't hold back, obviously she didn't expect her mother-in-law to give money to Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan, she couldn't bear it.

She never thought of keeping guests, who knew that her mother-in-law was so enthusiastic, alas...

Liu Man'er ate at the aunt's house, and the dishes cooked by the aunt's mother-in-law tasted pretty good. Besides, the more she saw her aunt's reluctance, the happier Liu Man'er ate.

But she is not the kind of person who doesn't understand etiquette. Before leaving, she also gave purses to the two children of the aunt's family as a return gift.

Afterwards, it was time to go to my sister-in-law's house. My aunt saw Ye Yuan had a carriage, so she asked Ye Yuan to pick up her two children. It was considered as a way to pay New Year's greetings. It was not a big deal, and Ye Yuan nodded in agreement.

It's just that one of the two children of the aunt's family is mischievous, and the other is too timid and obedient. Of course, the naughty boy has to calm down after being stared at by Ye Yuan.

All the way to the sister-in-law's house, the sister-in-law's house is in the countryside, but Ye Yuan had been there before, so he knew the way, once he arrived at the sister-in-law's house, Liu Man'er was stopped by the gate of the sister-in-law's house.

Scary!
The two gates are painted with bright red paint and look very thick. However, the gates of Liu Man'er's house are also like this. There is nothing scary about it. The main reason is that the courtyard gates are really out of place with the low earthen walls on both sides. When Liu Man'er saw this door, she felt that the head of the sister-in-law's family must be a person who values ​​face very much!
