Being urged to get married as soon as the Chinese New Year arrives is already a Spring Festival reserved program for modern Chinese young people.
Compared with the elders who looked for someone when they were young, young men and women now have more ideas of their own, and there are many who are still single at the age of 30.
Seeing that their children are getting older and getting used to their own way of life, which parents are not in a hurry, they are not enough to preach to their children, and the seven aunts and eight aunts also join the battle, making the young people just like their grandsons who have been cursed. Like monkeys, the pain is so overwhelming, but they can't escape.
"It's pretty miserable." Lin Lan smacked her lips and gave him a sympathetic look, "Come on, it's just a while, just get through it."
With a frowning face, Xu Xiangfei couldn't help but glance at her: "Young Master, you don't seem to have such troubles."
Strictly speaking, the daughter of the landlord's family is not much different from himself. When he moved to this building, this girl was still working in Modu, and she didn't see each other several times a year. That is, she didn't go out to work this year. The number of encounters was only a little more, and it was considered that the relationship from a few faces turned into a general friendship.
With this relaxed look on his face, could it be that he found a target in the magic capital long ago
"I had one, but we split up before I came back." Lin Lan waved her hand and confessed generously, "My family is small, and my parents and relatives are open-minded and don't care much about it. No one is in a hurry."
"Let's lie, how can there be middle-aged and elderly people who don't care about this?" Xu Xiangfei looked in disbelief, stared back at her with round eyes and looked back at her expression that was similar to the Erha dog he was holding.
"Isn't this obvious?" Lin Lan also took it for granted, "It's not a matter of minutes if you want to marry someone on my terms. You don't have to worry about not having a marriage partner at all."
The young and beautiful girl stood there with a six-storey building behind her. Xu Xiangfei only felt that a knife had been stabbed heavily in his chest.
That's right, she's a small renter-in-law who worries about her marriage. As long as she speaks out, even a family living in the opposite community will have a bunch of school-aged men come to her door!
"Young master, has anyone ever said that you are a little narcissistic?" Xu Xiangfei, who was too injured, covered his heart and complained and glared at her.
"Nonsense, I don't." Lin Lan retorted her tenant seriously, "After all, everything I said is true."
Another stab in the heart, the poor single dog who is about to face the army of urging marriage regrets why he told others about this.
"I'm losing, farewell!" Xu Xiangfei bowed his head and made a clasped fist towards her, turned around and left, "Young master, there will be a future!"
"Wow!" The husky, who was being pulled away as the master pulled the rope, also called to her twice from behind.
"It's easy to talk about it." Lin Lan smiled and waved to the one person and one dog who set off from the street. Unlike other tenants who were driving to the station, this one would go home every year because of this big dog. Pretty cool, "See you next year, Xu Xiangfei, and Coke!"
When the tenants of a building were all gone, New Year's Eve came as scheduled.
At this time, the old Cheng family had long been far away from Xicheng, and had stayed in their remote hometown for two or three days.
There are no shopping malls, no Internet cafes, and no playgrounds. Some only have network cables that have been pulled a few years ago, renovated old mansions, and cable TVs that cannot move programs forward or rewind at will.
In the spacious farmhouse, Cheng Fengyang was paralyzed on the sofa like a dried salted fish. His eyes seemed to be focused on the TV drama channel that the elders were watching with great interest.
Outside the house, there were a few little kids running around and having a snowball fight in the snow-covered compound, with a border shepherd and a big yellow dog in the middle.
Bian Mu is naturally a star brought back by Cheng Fengyang. Their family has returned to their hometown, and they have a private car. Of course, they will not leave the dog alone at home. The big yellow dog is the dog raised by the Cheng family's great grandfather. It is not a good hand to guard the house. Sometimes it will grab the job of the rural cat, and get a few mice by meddling.
Unlike the old Lin family whose relatives are all located in Xicheng, the members of the old Cheng family are more prosperous. When Mr. Cheng was young, he gave birth to three sons, including Grandpa Cheng Fengyang. Taking root in Xicheng and working hard, he and his wife built a courtyard together in the then backward Xicheng.
Grandpa Cheng did not have the same fortune as Grandpa Lin. He made a fortune by doing business and bought a house. They were all built by himself and his wife. Maybe it was because they fought too hard when they were young, and the two elders both died of illness when they were less than seventy years old. Only Cheng's father's family was left to guard the courtyard and continued to live a dull life of neither poor nor rich, until the government planned the urban area later, and then it was time to make a fortune. Although the other two brothers are still there, they are also suffering from illness under their old age.
In contrast, Grandpa Cheng and Grandma Cheng, who have been staying in their home villages, are long-lived. They are both in their 90s, but their bodies are very strong. .
The eldest elder in the family is still alive, so everyone in the Cheng family will go back to their hometown in the countryside every Chinese New Year.
At this time of year, this farmyard, which is getting brighter and brighter, is very lively, and the big and small peas are the chaos inside and outside the house.
"Uncle Fengyang! Uncle Fengyang!"
Cheng Fengyang was in love with nothing, and all the peas who were still in the snowball fight in the yard ran over. The seven-year-old boy at the head slammed into the arms of the young man who was paralyzed on the sofa, like a calf. Let the unprepared Cheng Fengyang almost lose his breath.
"Cheng Xiaozhuang, what are you doing!" The little boy's mother was also present, and immediately reprimanded upon seeing this, "I don't know that your uncle Fengyang twisted his foot two days ago and it still hurts, and you bumped into him! Apologize!"
Being trained by his mother like this, the overexcited little boy shrank his neck and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Uncle Fengyang, I hurt you."
"It's okay, it's okay." Cheng Fengyang, who was grinning, stretched out his hand to smooth things out, "It's normal for a child to have no sense. Sister-in-law, don't scold you for being strong."
"Don't get used to them Fengyang." Xiaozhuang's mother doesn't want to make up for her son, and she is often angry with the skin children in the family, "Your feet are twisted because of these stinky boys, New Year's Eve They don't stop at all, you should give them tight skin!"
The little kids who had just been madly happy in the courtyard shrank their necks collectively, and they looked at either Cheng Fengyang or Xiao Zhuang's mother pitifully.
Speaking of the sprained foot, Cheng Fengyang also sighed inwardly. Before returning to his hometown, he was injured by the red oil of the hot pot. After a few days, he managed to stay at home for a few days. After returning to his hometown, he was tired by relatives' bear children. directly twisted his foot.
Is this a disadvantage of fleeting time
There were tears in my heart, but I still had to put on the smile of the elders on the face: "It's okay, don't be angry, sister-in-law, they all know they're wrong. You can see that they don't dare to go to the ditches in the fields these days. Jumping around, isn't it progress? Well, Xiao Zhuang, Mingming and Tongtong, what do you have to do with me?" Didn't you still go crazy with the dog before
Xiao Zhuang's child Mingming immediately spoke first: "Uncle Fengyang, Xiao Zhuang said just now that you brought your PAD back! We want to watch cartoons, can you get us to watch it!"
Oh, when I get tired of playing with snow, I think of cartoons.
"Okay, I'll show it to you." Cheng Fengyang's bag was placed on the side cabinet in the living room, not too far away. If he wasn't injured, he could get it quickly, but now it's a bit difficult.
"I'll take it, Fengyang, sit down!" Seeing that he was going to take it by herself, Xiao Zhuang's mother quickly stopped it.
"No, no, I'm always paralyzed and don't move, and my bones hurt. Sister-in-law, you can let me move." Cheng Fengyang waved his hand, and the man had already got up from the sofa. Jumping to the wall.
Finally, he jumped to the sideboard with one leg. Cheng Fengyang reached out his hand to get his bag when he heard a series of laughter from the children behind, mixed with Cheng Xiaozhuang's undisguised "Grandpa and mother, look at the stars and rhubarb." , they're learning from Uncle Fengyang!" he shouted, and he immediately turned back in seconds as he didn't understand the reason.
He saw Bian Mu and the big yellow dog, who had come in with the children before, lined up behind him. Both dogs carried one front paw, learning how to walk with a jump.
"Hey! Two bad things!" Cheng Fengyang was so angry that he raised his hand and gestured to fight, the two dogs immediately turned around and ran away, but even if they escaped, they still carried one paw and ran away as if they were lame.
In an instant, everyone in the living room burst into laughter.
It's really maddening, even the dog learns to laugh at him when he is injured!
"It also proves that whether it's Xingxing or Rhubarb, they like you very much Fengyang." The great grandfather smiled and comforted his great-grandson, "You don't want them to learn if you don't get close to them."
"Forget this kind of closeness, great grandfather." The great grandson was tired, and he slumped back to the sofa and continued with a hopeless expression, "I am now being bullied by dogs."
His appearance only attracted more laughter from the elders.
"Yangyang will be twenty-six this year, and will be twenty-seven in one night." Grandma Cheng looked at her great-grandson with a loving smile on her face. Among the great-grandchildren, this one is the best looking. But I haven't paid my girlfriend back yet, "I can't drag my children away, it's time to find a daughter-in-law next year."
"It's not." After hearing the topic of interest, the little strong mother who adjusted the cartoons for the children also smiled and said, "A few of your cousins, except for Xiaohui and Pingping who are still studying, where are you? One is either already talking to someone or is already married, and you can't put it off in a few years."
"Yangyang, do you have a girl you like?" Grandpa Cheng also became concerned.
Of course there is one, but people don't like him yet. Cheng Fengyang thought in his heart, but the words on his lips were not like that.
"Master, don't worry, it's not easy for me to find a daughter-in-law." He straightened his back deliberately, the New Year's clothes on his body made the youth's facial features more handsome, and he flicked his bangs in a pretentious manner, "Look how tall I am. You are so handsome and the conditions are so good, it is not a matter of minutes to want a daughter-in-law? Wait, I will definitely bring back a beautiful daughter-in-law to the elders! "
"Hey! Uncle Fengyang is so narcissistic!" Cheng Xiaozhuang, who was watching the cartoon, suddenly turned his head and made a face at his cousin, "Don't be ashamed!"
"Stinky boy, if you talk more, you'll lose your tablet!"
There was a burst of laughter in the lively living room.
"It's getting late, and the second grandpa's family should be almost there." At this moment, the little strong mother looked at the sky outside the house and said suddenly, "Too milky, I'm going to the kitchen to make a fire for dinner."
"Let your mother, Fengyang, and Mingming go with you. If you have more people together, you should hurry up." The great grandmother instructed, "Before making a fire, remember to dig out all three stoves, and put all the cats sleeping in them. Driven out."
"Hey!"
When night fell, Cheng Er's grandfather and his family entered the old mansion in a mighty manner, just in time for dinner. This time, the old Cheng family was gathered together.
The elders and juniors gathered together. There were three round tables for this reunion dinner. Relatives sat and ate dishes and chatted together. The background music was still the Spring Festival Gala that had already started.
Even if many people no longer like to watch the Spring Festival Gala, they still like to tune to this channel when they turn on the TV, and they are happy to hear the sound.
Among the peers, Cheng Fengyang, an unmarried junior, was naturally impossible to squeeze into the most important table of the grandfather and grandma, and because he was a single dog, he was once again squeezed out of a family and a room because of the lack of population. The table of the brothers and sisters was reduced to the treatment of the same table as a group of half-sized children.
Miserable
No, not bad.
I escaped the various topics of marrying a daughter-in-law from my elders and married peers.
Cheng Fengyang said that the New Year's Eve dinner was very happy, and these little brats wouldn't bring up those bad topics, would they
It turned out that he was happy too early.
"Uncle Fengyang, when are you going to marry a wife?" A fifteen-year-old nephew looked at him with a wink, "My mother said that you will be 27 after tonight, which is very big. You haven't asked for it yet. daughter-in-law?"
Cheng Fengyang suddenly felt that the chicken legs in his hands were starting to taste bad, and he reprimanded his nephew with a sullen face, "Children, don't mind the business of adults."
"Uncle Fengyang, you are so rude!" The nephew, who was already in the third year of junior high school, burst out laughing. "It's too rude to have a wife at the age of 27. My dad was 3 years old when you were your age!"
Cheng Fengyang silently looked at his cousin, who was in the second phase of the middle school, and put down his chopsticks. The bear boy who was still laughing at his uncle was a single dog instantly showed vigilance, and when he saw him standing up, he was ready at any time. ran away. But soon he found out that the cousin didn't come to beat him, but turned around and left the table: "I'm going to the toilet."
The young man leaned on crutches as if nothing had happened, walked across the table seat and walked towards the door of the living room.
The moment he walked out of the house, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, dug out the number of a college classmate who worked in the experimental middle school in the phone book, and pressed the dial button.
after a few seconds.
"Hey, it's a soldier, Happy New Year!... Hey, buddy, have you been doing well this year... How can I compare with you, I'm already a gold medal teacher, and my social status is enviable... It's easy to say, easy to say, Let's get together again when you are free... By the way, I have a little thing I want to invite you to... "
Time flies, two days have passed.
On New Year's Eve, the cousin who laughed at his cousin's lack of a daughter-in-law had already forgotten all about it, until the cousin quietly received a tailwind express in his hometown before he left, and took out a dozen thick packages from the package. After Hou's examination papers and exercises were handed over to his parents, the shocked and indignant middle-2 boy finally realized the seriousness of the consequences.
What is he doing to provoke a single dog without a daughter-in-law, the world is really not worth it!
