Even if Uncle He could stand up on his legs, this joy would not be enough to dilute the sadness caused by He Qingsong's untimely death.

Especially during the New Year and holidays, when reunion is important, it is even more torturous for the He family.

"Then you stayed there to spend more time with them, right?" she asked again.

Xiao An nodded, "Yes, I helped prepare all the New Year's goods, and last night I had a New Year's Eve dinner with Uncle He and Aunt He in advance, so I wasted some time."

In fact, there was something Xiao An hid from Yang Ruoqing.

That is, two days ago, he accompanied He Lian'er back to the old village of the He family to visit He Qingsong's grave.

The reason why he hid it was not because he was worried that his sister would object to him burning incense for He Qingsong, but because for two days and one night, he and He Lian'er were the only ones.

He was afraid that if he told his sister this, she would cause misunderstanding and she would have to ask a lot of questions.

There are some things for which it is not yet time to pierce the window paper.

…

Because the children, regardless of whether they were short or far away, were basically back, Mrs. Sun was in a good mood. When she was preparing the New Year's Eve dinner in the backyard, there was a row of ingredients on the long table, and she didn't know how rich it was.

"Mom, if there is a New Year's Eve dinner competition, your table will definitely win!"

Yang Ruoqing twisted a pitted red date and threw it into her mouth.

Next to the red dates are white glutinous rice and red glutinous rice that have been soaked for a long time. Later, they will be stuffed into the jujubes and steamed.

This snack is called 'Heart-soft' and is suitable for all ages. Even a toothless old lady can eat a few of them.

Hearing Yang Ruoqing's praise, Mrs. Sun burst into laughter.

"Your aunt must have prepared more sumptuous meals than mine. Remember to eat 70% full at night, so save some for a few bites here!"

"Well, it's necessary, doesn't it happen every year?"

We have two New Year's Eve dinners, one from my husband's family and one from my mother's family. This is the advantage of marrying close by.

Many people yearn for love when they are young, and they go to other places for love without hesitation.

After many years of marriage, when the passion fades and you live a life of food, rice, oil and salt day after day, year after year, you will find that those vigorous things you pursued at the beginning will eventually become dull.

Your husband is with you, your parents-in-law are considerate of you, your children are obedient, and your life is still prosperous. This is very practical.

But despite being at ease, every time I think back to my childhood and my parents, there will inevitably be a trace of nostalgia and regret in my heart.

If the man is not considerate, the parents-in-law are harsh, and the children are disobedient, life at home will be difficult.

If you are a woman in a foreign land, it would be better if you can make money on your own. If you are burdened by children and housework and lose your financial ability, and you have to rely on your man and in-laws for all your expenses, life will be miserable.

Therefore, if love can be compatible with distance, try not to marry too far away.

With my mother's family close by, my relatives and friends can move around at any time. When I'm in trouble, I at least have a place to talk.

People like Yang Ruoqing are the happiest people. As she grows older, she becomes more and more satisfied and grateful for the attention of her parents when choosing a son-in-law. It was their deliberate matchmaking that brought such a good Tang Yazi to her.

Outside the kitchen, Yang Huazhong and Da'an and Xiaoan were busy pasting couplets on the door frames of each room.

The couplet was naturally written by Da'an. The characters are like dragons and phoenixes, and the couplets are even more exquisite. He is worthy of being the top talent. Every year during the Chinese New Year, the couplets written by relatives can help save a lot of money!

Yang Ruoqing poked her head and looked outside, then looked back, and then asked Mrs. Sun: "Mom, what are my grandma's arrangements for the Chinese New Year this year?"

When asked about this, Mrs. Sun couldn't help but go to the kitchen door and take a look outside.

After confirming that Yang Huazhong and his wife and daughter were posting couplets enthusiastically in the courtyard, Mrs. Sun, who would not be coming to the kitchen for a while, pulled Yang Ruoqing aside and spoke in a low voice.

"When your father and your fourth and fifth uncles discussed it, there was no argument about the whereabouts of your milk. This year, your milk will be celebrating the New Year with the fifth uncle."

"But when it was your turn, my opinions were a little mixed."

"What kind of miscellaneous method? Mom, tell me."

"What your fourth uncle means is to just send some fish and meat to the house over there and let Yu Xingkui cook it for your father to eat. Give Yu Xingkui some money so that he doesn't go home during the Chinese New Year."

"What your fifth uncle means is that the Chinese New Year comes only once a year. Even if you give people more money, they won't be happy and still want to go back to spend time with their families."

"What? My fifth uncle doesn't want to take my father to his house to celebrate the New Year, right?"

Yang Ruoqing asked, already imagining in her mind the scene of Old Yangtou and Mr. Tan meeting at the table, then turning over the table and quarreling and fighting, triggering a world war in Changping Village.

No special effects are needed, just putting the two of them together can produce that effect.

"Your fifth uncle doesn't dare to take your father to his house. Your mother is here." Mrs. Sun said.

"What your fifth uncle means is that you have to give Yu Xingkui a three-day holiday from tonight to the second day of the first lunar month. In these days, your father will come to our house or other people's houses to have a few meals, or several families will take turns delivering meals.

It’s okay to go over and take care of her in her turn.”

"Your father doesn't object. He said that our family will send a New Year's Eve dinner tonight and watch the New Year's Eve tonight. Your father will also go there a few times and insist on it until Yu Xingkui comes back on the second day of the first lunar month."

Yang Ruoqing thought for a while, and it seemed that this was the only way. We couldn't just celebrate the New Year at home, happily visit relatives and friends, and leave the old man to starve to death in the house, right?

Not to mention an old man, even if you have a cat that likes to scratch people, or a dog that breaks up the house, you still have to find an owner for it if this happens, or else you have to spend some money to send it to a pet store.

go.

Anyway, we can't just watch it starve to death or die of thirst.

"Uncle Wu's proposal allows us to temporarily find someone to greet you for two or three days during the Chinese New Year." Yang Ruoqing also expressed her own opinion.

"Then why does Fourth Uncle oppose Fifth Uncle's proposal?"

"What else could it be for? Your fourth uncle is really aggrieved about the fact that your father used the marriage of the fourth bedroom and the third girl as a cover last time!"

"Not to mention your fourth aunt, even if she didn't do it as a cover, it would be 80% difficult for her to deliver food to the old man."

Yang Ruoqing thought for a moment and said, "It's disgusting to use a pretense to deceive the fourth uncle's feelings, but the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt actually accepted the ten taels of silver."

"If the fifth uncle's proposal is approved by the majority of people, then the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt must also join in, otherwise they will have to spend money as subsidies."

Now that the old Yang family has arrived, except for Yang Yongqing, who is lazy and has a poor life, the other big and small houses have long been out of poverty.

Wufang, Yang Yongjin and others all have rich families.

Although Yang Yongzhi did not build a new house, Yang Yongzhi and Zhao Liuer must have saved money. After all, the Taoist temple was a lucrative job.
