Chapter 170 The author would like to ask for some monthly votes:)
Near the end of the year, Song Weiguo sent a telegram.
Unfortunately, he still couldn't come back to celebrate the New Year, so he could only send New Year greetings to his elders in a telegram.
When she didn't receive the telegram, Li Guilan thought to herself. After receiving the telegram, she knew that her eldest son would not come back, and her mood became not very good again.
Song Juan saw everything, but she expressed her powerlessness in this matter.
If you intervene forcefully, you may become the target for your mother to vent her depression. If you ignore her and let her adjust her mood alone, she will be back to her original state in a day at most.
Of course, it's not completely impossible.
For example, if the second brother and his family suddenly come back, the old lady will definitely be smiling every minute.
The depression caused by one son can only be resolved by another son.
But Song Juan really doesn't know when her second brother and his family will come back.
According to the situation last year, he should have come back by now, but there was no call this year. Song Juan was wondering whether she should call and ask.
Just as I was thinking about it, there was a shout from outside the door.
"grandfather!"
"grandmother!"
The brothers Song Mingjian and Song Mingshe ran into the yard and rushed into the house.
"aunt!"
It wasn't until they entered the house that the two little guys remembered that they had an aunt and opened their mouths to shout.
Song Juan glanced at the two brothers and made a note for them in the notebook.
Sure enough, just as Song Juan thought, the only thing that could heal the depression and trauma caused by one son was another son.
You said it could be a grandson?
Haha, Song Juan deliberately said with certainty that here in Li Guilan, there will never be any idea of estranged relatives.
Even though this old lady has never gone to school and doesn't have much knowledge, she still has a good way of dealing with people. Not to mention whether she is right or not, at least she has not offended anyone in her life and has a good reputation in the village.
Based on this alone, Song Juan admired her mother very much.
The return of Song Weimin's family means that the old Song family can start celebrating the New Year again.
Well, Song Juan has to be the chef again.
But, happy!
Not long after Song Mingjian and Song Mingshe came back, they rushed out of the house like crazy and went to play with their cousins.
Of course, I didn’t go empty-handed, but I brought many small firecrackers.
After a while, the crackle of firecrackers was heard outside.
The happiness of a child is so simple and unpretentious.
Unfortunately, all this happiness is still based on having money.
Money is not everything, and no money is everything.
Most of the suffering in the world comes from poverty.
Song Juan was chewing melon seeds, listening to her mother's nagging, looking at her second brother and sister-in-law winking there, and suddenly felt that this life, well, was really full of flavor.
Song Weimin and Kong Laidi came back, and not long after, Song Jianjun and Song Guoqing also came over.
This is etiquette!
Song Weimin is the second eldest son of the Song family. Song Jianjun and Song Guoqing are both younger brothers. Knowing that their second brother is back, it would be rude not to take the initiative to come over and say hello.
With their arrival, the Old Song family immediately became lively.
"Play cards, play cards!"
When Song Juan saw that there were more people, she immediately greeted them.
Before, there was no one at home, and Song Juan was very bored by herself. But now that there is someone, Song Juan finally has someone to play with.
"I haven't finished preparing for my lesson yet!"
Song Jianjun didn't want to play cards because their luck was always bad when playing cards with Song Juan.
Song Weimin and Song Guoqing didn't have so many ideas.
It's not that the two of them didn't know that Song Juan was lucky, but that Song Weimin hadn't been back for a long time and didn't care about it. Song Guoqing, on the other hand, never took it seriously. Isn't it just a loss of cards? It's not a loss of money.
“After the Chinese New Year, you’ll be busy working, it’s time to take a rest!”
Song Laifu opened his mouth and the matter was settled.
Song Juan finally got her wish and played the card.
It's a pity that I didn't play a few games before I was kicked off the table. Well, my father asked me to do it.
The reason is that he keeps losing and the old man gets angry.
Song Juan could only be a spectator, guarding Song Laifu and providing good luck to her father.
At this time, Song Jianjun and others could only feel aggrieved. They could protest against their little sister who had been so lucky, but they could not protest against their father.
Of course, Song Laifu's good luck did not last long, because Song Juan was called to the kitchen by Li Guilan.
At this point, the fair competition officially begins.
…
A group of people had a lively dinner and then went back to their homes.
After all, there is no electricity.
Because Song Weimin's family came back, the sleeping arrangements at night also changed.
Song Juan could no longer enjoy the big kang alone, but shared a room with her biological mother Li Guilan and second sister-in-law Kong Laidi. Song Laifu, Song Weimin took Song Mingjian, and Song Mingshe slept in the main room.
Of course, Song Juan was lucky enough to be covered with a quilt by herself, but all this was due to her not being honest when sleeping at night.
Because there was someone around, Song Juan had someone to talk to.
After some chatting, the parents kept talking for who knows how long.
When Song Juan woke up the next day, it was already bright.
The only good thing is that his nephews didn't come to wake him up.
Getting up from the warm bed, Song Juan quickly put on the clothes that had been warmed by the bed, and then slowly got off the bed.
As a result, there was no one at home.
After thinking for a moment, Song Juan finally remembered.
The village is killing the New Year pig today!
This year, the New Year pig will be killed later than in previous years.
But, people in the village don't seem to have any opinions.
After all, we had established a line with Haining Town before, and every household had fish and meat. Naturally, the New Year pig could be killed later.
Song Juan ate the breakfast left in the pot and was going to see the New Year pig.
Before she reached the grain drying field, she saw two tractors emitting black smoke and driving into Banpo Village from the highway.
Seeing these two tractors, Song Juan immediately turned around and went home. After a while, she rushed out with her small treasury.
It is a tractor from Haining Town.
If she guessed correctly, it should be the fresh fish promised by Secretary Liao of the Haining Town Commune.
Song Juan still wants these fish-filled dumplings!
She rushed to the grain drying field, and it turned out to be the tractor delivering the catch from Haining Town.
Not only fish, but also some seafood such as shells.
Song Juan naturally buys as much as she can.
In this era, although her food is much better than others, it is still a bit monotonous after all. Now, if there is an opportunity to improve the food, she must seize the opportunity.
Anyway, she is not short of money.
Haining Town Commune Secretary Liao Deyang came in person again.
Song Juan is not worried that she will be hated by others. After all, she now has a good job, which everyone knows.
The most important thing is that what she did benefited the entire Qiaojia Town Commune.
At this time, if someone is looking for trouble for her, they are going against the entire commune.
Of course, although she felt good, her biological mother Li Guilan still explained a few words: after a busy year, it is time to eat something good. Another example is that the grandchildren are back, so they need to make up for it.
Song Juan listened to the explanations of her mother and the aunties around her, with a smile on her face.
She is truly a mother!
