Chapter 1801: Messing around (first update)
Yang Ruoqing caressed Dabai’s little face, turned around and came to the table again.
At this time, the table was in a mess.
A variety of exquisite and beautiful snack boxes were originally filled with melon seeds, peanuts, broad beans, peas, candied fruits, rice cakes and other snacks.
Now, almost half of the melon seeds and the like are no longer in the box, they have all been put on the table by Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei stepped on the stool, with most of his body lying on the table. A pair of chubby little black hands pulled the melon seeds and peanuts on the table, and stuffed the melon seeds into his mouth from time to time.
After chewing it for a few times, he spit it out, including the shell and meat, and his saliva, leaving the table dirty.
Yang Huamei stood aside, holding up one hand to block Xiao Hei, fearing that he would fall, and with the other hand, she grabbed the melon seeds that Xiao Hei fiddled with and knocked them on the table.
"Xiao Hei is so bad. He wastes it when he can't eat it. It's the same at home. He's not afraid of being beaten or scolded. I can't do anything."
Yang Huamei was helpless while eating melon seeds. road.
Yang Ruoqing came over and said with a smile: "That's just how children are. As long as they play well and don't cry, it's just a matter of a few melon seeds and peanuts. This is not someone else's home."
Hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, Yang Huamei smiled.
Lao Wang’s family nearby were also very happy.
Yang Ruoqing picked up the melon seed box on the table and handed it to Shuanzi Niang, Wang Hongquan and Wang Shuanzi.
"Uncle Shuanzi, don't just sit here, crack some melon seeds and kill time!"
Wang Shuanzi and others politely stretched out their hands to grab a handful of melon seeds and crack them there.
Shuanzi Niang asked Yang Ruoqing: "Where is the baby?"
Yang Ruoqing turned her head and looked behind her, "Her two godmothers were holding each other in the yard before. They were probably watching from outside. Xiao An and the others, let’s play!”
Shuanzi Niang nodded and sat there eating melon seeds and drinking tea.
Yang Huazhong accompanied Lao Yangtou and Wang Hongquan, smoking dry cigarettes and chatting.
Yang Ruoqing walked around the main room, refilled the tea bowls of these elders, and returned to Yang Huamei again.
"The clothes Dabai is wearing look like new Chinese New Year clothes. Why is Xiao Hei still wearing old clothes from a year ago?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
Yang Huamei glanced at Xiao Hei and smiled.
“Both of them made exactly the same new clothes. When they were having New Year’s Eve dinner, the meatballs had just been served.”
“As soon as I turned my back, Xiao Hei’s hand I touched it, knocked it over, and splashed the soup on my chest.”
"Ah?" Yang Ruoqing was happy.
"Then what? Wouldn't you cry?" she asked.
Yang Huamei shook her head and patted Xiao Hei's butt: "This bastard, he's got a good skin, he doesn't cry even if he does something wrong, but it's a pity that the clothes are so dirty that he can't wear them, so I have to give them to him I found an old piece of clothing to make do with."
Yang Ruoqing nodded, so that's what happened.
Besides, Mrs. Tan scolded Yang Huamei: "I said hello to you several times a year ago, and I made two more sets of new clothes for the twins, just to prevent this."
"It's Chinese New Year. It's okay for adults to wear some old clothes. Children have to wear new clothes to be happy. You must not listen!"
Hearing Tan's scolding, Yang Huamei said with a smile: "This Chinese New Year is just that special. Thinking about it, just make a new set of clothes. If you make too much, they will grow taller now. When the weather gets colder, the clothes will be smaller. It will be a waste if you make too much!" He curled his lips and said, "Sir, take less bites. If you already have the money to make clothes, why should you bother your children during the Chinese New Year?"
Yang Huamei smiled and said to Yang Ruoqing: "I can't tell you."
Yang Ruoqing then Smiling, she said to Mrs. Tan: "Nai, I am the biological mother of the twins. She can't bear to offend the two children even if she wrongs herself. Just don't say anything." Mrs. Tan said: "I think this is the Chinese New Year. Only once a year..."
Yang Ruoqing smiled again, "Our family is living a better life now. There are many other families in our village who are having a hard time."
"They During the Chinese New Year, the children don’t even have any new clothes.”
“Even in our family, three or four years ago, we children didn’t all wear old clothes during the Chinese New Year. Well?" Yang Ruoqing said.
Tan said: "At that time, our old Yang family was not divided, and you all were just girls. You must keep your grandchildren close to you before you get the two new clothes!"
Yang Ruoqing said: "But in my impression, Da'an and Xiao'an always wore patched clothes during the New Year. It would be nice to have a new pair of shoes."
Tan was blocked by Yang Ruoqing's words.
The old lady paused for a moment, then continued: "It's not that my family was poor at that time and I didn't have enough to eat, so why should I care about that!"
Yang Ruoqing said: "So, This man, he always gets angry no matter what day he encounters You don’t have to choose how to live your life.”
“So when you have no money, you have to tighten your belt and live hard. If you have a little more money, you have to spend it leisurely. Don’t worry about ten thousand. Just in case?”
"So, my aunt made a new set of clothes for each of the two couples for the New Year. It is a rational approach and not extravagant and wasteful, right?"
Ms. Tan was speechless.
"You girl, you have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth. You have said things that your parents have never said in their lives. I can't speak to you!" said Tan.
The old lady turned her head and continued teasing Dabai.
The old lady gave up in this argument.
Yang Ruoqing had expressed everything she needed to express. If she continued to dwell on this topic, she would appear to be unreasonable.
"Girl, you are so kind to take care of this little blackie. I went to the kitchen to help my mother cook!" Yang Ruoqing said.
Yang Huamei nodded: "Tell Third Sister-in-law not to cook too many dishes. We are not outsiders. Just make a few dishes for men to go with wine. Don't be so tired."
Yang Ruoqing smiled happily. : "It's Chinese New Year, even if you are tired, you can be happy. Sister, you sit down first, I will come back later."
In the backyard, the fragrance dominates the entire backyard.
Even Yang Ruoqing, who had just finished breakfast, was instantly awakened as soon as she walked into the backyard.
"Oh my God, I gained ten pounds during the holidays. I just put down my chopsticks and I'm hungry again. What should I do?"
Yang Ruoqing entered the kitchen with a smile.
In the kitchen, Mrs. Sun and Yang Ruolan were busy on one pot and on the other.
Hearing Yang Ruoqing's joking words, Mrs. Sun took a moment to smile and said, "Isn't that just like this in the first month of the year? Eat and play, eat and play, and fall down when you're full and tired. Just sleep and eat again when you wake up.”
"Oh, my God, it's almost like a pig!" Yang Ruoqing said.
Ms. Sun gave her an angry look and said, "You're talking nonsense."
Yang Ruolan also giggled: "Pigs are a good thing. In our village, pigs are a treasure, a New Year's treasure. ”
Yang Ruoqing Said: "Yes, being like a pig is a good thing, auspicious and festive."
The mother and daughter all laughed. Yang Ruoqing took the apron on the side and tied it around her waist, "Mom, what are you cooking next? ? Let me help you!”
