Chapter 8171 Debt collectors come to visit
"Even if we go to Grandma Ga's house this time, let's treat it as a normal visit. If we act like those grandsons coming to visit, we will cause trouble to the Zheng family, that's all. It’s best to go back and forth simply.”
Old Jiangtou’s concerns are justified.
Here at Mianniu Mountain, the first time a grandson goes back to his in-laws’ house, and the first time a daughter-in-law-to-be goes back to her in-laws’ house, they both come to visit.
Visiting the door requires a sense of ceremony.
Take the grandson as an example. When a grandson visits his mother-in-law, he needs to bring many kinds of gifts with different meanings.
As for Ga's mother-in-law's family, they also have to send back gifts of the same size, such as a cradle and new clothes. Those who are considerate must prepare millet cakes, salty dry noodles, etc. in advance.
Jiang Xianjun laughed dryly and said, "We just went back to take a look. We didn't say hello in advance, so we didn't go through the formalities."
Originally, he was prepared to go back and take a look as a representative, but The mother-in-law sent her two messages, in which she hoped that the three of them would go back and have a look. She said that the old father-in-law had never seen what his granddaughter looked like.
The last time my granddaughter held a full-moon banquet, her father-in-law didn't come, so my mother-in-law brought a few children from her eldest brother's and second uncle's family to have a meal and then went back.
So Jiang Xianjun and Zheng Xiaoqin discussed it and planned to go back together today.
Since Zheng Xiaoqin got married, she hasn’t been back to her parents’ home for several months...
Lao Jiangtou patted Jiang Xianjun on the shoulder again: “Although I don’t go through the motions like that, but You can’t pick out the gifts you should bring, and you can’t let Lao Zheng’s family look down upon our Lao Jiang family.”
Jiang Xianjun suppressed the faint smile on his face and nodded seriously.
With his father-in-law, he had long been disgraced. Every time he went back, his two uncles would turn their noses in the air and ignore him, and his two uncles and sisters-in-law would make sarcastic remarks.
After that, he went less and less. He only went once after his daughter was born, and that time he sent his mother-in-law back.
I met my brother-in-law and sister-in-law at the entrance of the village. The other party thought that he was there to fight in the autumn wind, and she was very nervous.
"Don't worry, sir, I won't let anyone look down on our Jiang family."
After receiving Jiang Xianjun's assurance, Lao Jiangtou was relieved.
Lao Jiangtou knew that during this period, because of the help of the old Yang family and the old Luo family, the young couple had no shortage of food and drink. They had chickens and ducks, and they could send some to the father-in-law's house.
"Then your uncle and I will go to Luo's house first, and you can go about your business." Lao Jiangtou said again.
The two grandsons of the old Luo family are hosting a full-moon banquet, and Lao Jiangtou has received the invitation.
Jiang Xianjun nodded and moved out of the way.
When Jiang Da passed by Jiang Xianjun, he patted his shoulder and warned: "It's cold and rainy today, take good care of your daughter."
Jiang Xianjun smiled 'Eh' After saying this, he sent them to the door of the hall, helped Old Jiangtou put on his raincoat, and then watched them go away.
When they completely disappeared from sight, Jiang Xianjun quickly closed the courtyard door and ran back to the west room.
At this time, Zheng Xiaoqin had just changed her daughter's clothes, a new coat with red flowers, black cotton pants, cotton socks on her feet, and a red tiger head hat, with her chubby little face pressed down It appears to have no neck. Although it is not delicate, it is still cute and naive, which is in line with the temperament of a little baby at this stage.
“My daughter is so beautiful.”
Jiang Xianjun was leaning on the bedside, his eyes glued to the child, and couldn’t help but boast.
Zheng Xiaoqin pursed her lips and smiled, "You are selling melons and boasting, and you will laugh to death if others hear you."
Jiang Xianjun raised his eyebrows, disapprovingly. The daughter he gave birth to was definitely not ugly.
"It's raining outside. How about I get a stroller over? Can you hold your daughter in the car and hold an umbrella?" Jiang Xianjun asked Zheng Xiaoqin again.
Zheng Xiaoqin said: "Earlier at Luo's house, Sister Qing'er heard that we were going to Zhengjia Village today and said she would send us there in a carriage, but I refused." "Such a little bit of rain. , we can just hold the umbrella, there is no need to bother others.”
Jiang Xianjun was a little surprised to hear that Yang Ruoqing was doing this.
If it were other people in the village who expressed kindness to his wife and daughter, he would definitely have a favorable impression of that person and would repay them if he had the opportunity.
But because the other party was Yang Ruoqing... No matter what she did to his wife and daughter, he could not be grateful to her.
Because his mother is still in prison, I don’t know when the guillotine will fall.
Either fall down quickly or release him. Being locked up and suffering like this makes him uneasy outside and living in torment every day.
The last time his daughter was one month old, he originally wanted to take his wife and daughter to the county jail to see her.
But the child didn't know whether he had eaten too much and hadn't digested it well or something, and had some diarrhea and hiccups in the past two days, so he had to put the plan on hold...
Zheng Xiaoqin secretly observed Jiang Xianjun and found that his expression changed. Uncertain, and his eyes dimmed accordingly.
Zheng Xiaoqin guessed that he must be thinking of his mother-in-law again and felt uncomfortable.
Zheng Xiaoqin quickly changed the subject, "Xianjun, we two have packed up. You go pick up some things and then we can set off."
Jiang Xianjun came back to his senses and said, "Everything is ready. Okay, let’s go!”
With the lesson just learned, Zheng Xiaoqin did not dare to tell him about the deer bones.
When she gets back to her mother's house, she can just find an opportunity to give it to her mother quietly.
Jiang Xianjun took out a basket and opened the cloth covering the basket to let Zheng Xiaoqin see the contents.
“Look, let’s take these things over to visit your brother, okay?”
Zheng Xiaoqin stretched her neck and looked at it, a little surprised.
"Xianjun, you took too much, didn't you?"
"It's okay, this is the first time you go back to your parents' house seriously after you married me, take more and it will look better. "
Zheng Xiaoqin was moved by Jiang Xianjun's thoughtfulness, lowered her head and nodded gently. She suddenly felt more confident about returning to her parents' home.
The young couple locked the door of their house, held an umbrella, carried a basket, and walked into the drizzle to protect their children, and walked step by step towards Zhengjia Village...
Arrived at Zhengjia Village, Zheng Xiaoqin's mother was busy in the kitchen, her two sisters-in-law were doing needlework in the main room, and several nieces and nephews were playing around.
When Mr. and Mrs. Jiang Xianjun and their children pushed open the courtyard door and came in, the yard was filled with chicken manure and it was almost impossible to move.
The eight-year-old nephew was brought up by Zheng Xiaoqin. When he saw Zheng Xiaoqin coming, the eldest nephew happily shouted "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law".
Hearing this voice, his mother scolded her without thinking: "You are a ghost, go play with you!"
The child ignored his mother and rushed towards him. into the yard.
The sister-in-law of the Zheng family was angry when she saw this. She held the soles of her shoes in her hands as if she was going to go crazy, but the sister-in-law next to her looked at the yard as if she had seen a ghost, "What's wrong, a debt collector is coming!"
The sister-in-law also saw that not only Zheng Xiaoqin returned to her parents' home, but Jiang Xianjun also came.
Wait a minute, what is that wrapped in a small blanket in their arms?
Did you bring the baby with you? He is coming to your door to ask for something. He is really the debt collector of the whole family!
