At Xu Damao's house.
Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao were packing up and preparing to go home for the New Year.
After packing some New Year goods, Lou Xiao'e asked Xu Damao,"
"Are you going to my house to pay New Year's greetings this year?”
When Xu Damao heard that, he pursed his lips." I'm not going. Your dad doesn't like me."”
When Xu Damao first married Lou Xiao'e, he even went to the Lou family to pay a New Year visit.
However, Lou Cheng's father didn't like Xu Damao at all. He felt that Xu Damao was useless, so he didn't give Xu Damao a good look.
Back then, Lou Xiao'e married Xu Damao because Xu Damao's mother used to be a servant of the Lou family. She said a lot of good things in front of Mother Lou.
In addition, Xu Damao's family background was good, and his ancestors were three generations of poor farmers.
At that time, Xu Damao also took a fancy to the Lou family's money and connections, so he did not stop flattering Mother Lou.
However, Lou Cheng's father was clearly not so easy to fool.
He had always been brooding over this matter.
Father Lou had wanted to marry his daughter to Han Qiye, who had come to propose marriage. After all, Han Qiye had treated his daughter sincerely, and Father Lou had seen it.
Unfortunately, when the Lou family came to the courtyard house to inquire about Han Qiye's situation.
She concluded that Han Qiye was not a good man.
In addition, Han Qiye's three generations of ancestors were farmers, so they were not as rich as Xu Damao.
Han Qiye and Lou Xiao'e had missed it by accident.
Hearing that Xu Damao wasn't going to visit her home, Lou Xiao'e's face turned ugly.
"Then I won't go to your house either, lest your parents ask about our child again.”
Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao had been married for several years, but they still didn't have a child.
Xu Damao's parents blamed Lou Xiao'e for this.
Xu Damao also felt that it was Lou Xiao'e's problem.
Nowadays, most people thought that it was a woman's problem if they could not have children.
Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao didn't go to each other's house to pay New Year's greetings. They each lived their own lives, which made both of them feel resentful.
Lou Xiao'e carried the New Year's goods and went out. Of course, she did not forget the thin golden couplet.
.......
Soon, it was night time. The courtyard was very lively with red lanterns hanging high.
Some children were setting off firecrackers outside while the adults were preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner.
At Yi Zhonghai's house, there was only Yi Zhonghai, a middle-aged woman, an old lady, and He Yushui for the New Year. It was rather quiet.
If it was in the past, Silly Zhu would definitely spend the New Year with Yi Zhonghai and the others, helping them make dumplings.
Not only Silly Zhu, but Qin Huairu and her family would also come over to freeload.
But now, Silly Zhu was in jail, so Yi Zhonghai did not invite the Jia family.
"The dumplings are here!"
Yi Zhonghai smiled as he held a plate of dumplings.
It was finally time for dinner for He Yushui. After starving for a day, she immediately became a big eater.
Looking at He Yushui who was wolfing down the food, a middle-aged woman smiled and said,"Rainwater, eat slowly. Don't choke.”
A middle-aged woman pitied He Yushui for starving for an entire day.
If Shazhu was still around, no matter how miserable He Yushui was, she wouldn't have to go around freeloading.
"Unfortunately, Silly Zhu isn't here." Yi Zhonghai sighed.
Yi Zhonghai didn't say no to He Yushui coming to his house to freeload.
She did not reject him like Qin Huairu did.
However, he did it for the sake of Silly Zhu. After all, he wanted Silly Zhu to support him in his old age, so he naturally had to befriend He Shuiyu.
The deaf old lady did not need Silly Zhu to support her in her old age. With the country supporting her in her old age, she naturally did not need to care about He Yushui's feelings.
Yi Zhonghai, on the other hand, could not.
"Yu Shui, go to the detention center later to visit your brother. Give him some of these dumplings and give him something good to eat.”
the old lady said to He Yushui.
"Alright."
He Yushui nodded in agreement.
However, she was thinking in her heart that she was not going to send food to her brother.
He had to let Silly Zhu reflect on himself and let him know that no one would miss him during the new year. He wanted to see if he would still help the Jia family's nest of ingrates in the future.
......
At the Han family's house, Han Qiye had also prepared a table full of delicious dishes.
Steamed Bass, Wensi Tofu, Dongpo Pig Knuckle, Stewed Beef with Potato, Pork Ribs and corn soup, and Ants on the Tree.
It could be said that in the entire courtyard, Han Qiye's family had the most sumptuous food.
Unfortunately, the two of them were a little cold.
If they could have a few children, the house would be much livelier.
Han Qiye and Bao 'er hadn't been married for long, but it wasn't short either. It had been more than a year.
However, Han Qiye did not care about this. After all, he knew that it was normal for a child to not get pregnant within three years.
Only if she couldn't get pregnant for three to five years could it mean that there was a problem with her body.
Han Qiye took out two bottles of Maotai from his space and poured Bao 'er a cup.
"Sister Bao 'er, let's have a drink and try to give birth to a fat boy as soon as possible.”
Sister Bao 'er picked up the wine glass and downed the 50-alcohol Moutai in one gulp.
"Burp, Ye, this wine isn't spicy at all. I've finished it. It's your turn.”
In the end, Sister Bao 'er even complained to him.
Oh, he almost forgot that Sister Bao 'er had a special constitution. Drinking white wine was as easy as drinking water.
Han Qiye could only slowly savor the taste of the Maotai.
After dinner, Yan Bugui brought Third Aunt over for a walk.
Yan Bugui wanted to build a good relationship with Han Qiye.
The furniture incident was a good start.
Yi Zhonghai also came over and said something nice.
Han Qiye's attitude was neither cold nor warm.
.......
"Why didn't Xu Damao come to our house?”
At the Lou family, Lou Xiao'e's father was very dissatisfied when he saw Lou Xiao'e return to her mother's house alone.
Several sons-in-law of the Lou family were present for this New Year's Eve dinner, except for Xu Damao.
"With your temper, would Xu Damao dare to come to our house for the New Year? You've never been nice to others.”
Mother Lou pursed her lips and said.
Although she was also very dissatisfied with Xu Damao's behavior.
However, she was the one who chose this son-in-law back then. How could she regret it?
To a woman, getting married was no less than her second reincarnation.
Lou Xiao'e had already married him. As a mother, she couldn't persuade him to get a divorce, right?
"Isn't this all your fault? Back then, after hearing a few words of flattery from their family, she was charmed and married her daughter off.”
Lou Cheng's father slapped the table to express his anger.
"Then what can we do? Your daughter is already married to him. Is there any use in losing your temper at me now?”
"If you ask me, I should have married the moth to Han Qiye.”
"Weren't you the one who asked around about Han Qiye's bad reputation?”
"I was deceived by the people in their courtyard. He was so good to moths back then. No matter what, he was better than Xu Damao.”
"Then you can be deceived by others, but I can't be deceived by others? Lou Zhenhua, do you have the face to blame me?"
In the living room, Lou Xiao'e's siblings looked at the two of them with bitter smiles.
They couldn't afford to offend a fight between immortals.
"Dad, Mom, don't mention this anymore. Look at the gift I brought.”
Lou Xiao'e had a headache.
She knew that once she returned home, her parents would quarrel over her.
Lou Xiao'e hurriedly took out the thin golden couplet she had brought with her to divert the topic.
Father Lou took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
There was no point in arguing like this. He did not want to see his house in a foul mood on New Year's Eve.
"Hmm? This was the Thin Gold Body? Good calligraphy, it's not inferior to the authentic. Where did you get this?”
Lou Cheng's father looked at it and was also surprised. He turned around and asked.
The Lou family had a lot of antique calligraphy and paintings, but they didn't have the Thin Gold Body. Father Lou liked such good things very much.
"Yes, Han Qiye gave it to me." Lou Xiao'e bit her lips and whispered.
"Han Qiye? The Han Qiye who wanted to marry you?”
When Lou Cheng's father heard this, his eyes widened.
Lou Xiao'e nodded shyly.
This time, Lou Zhenhua also became interested and asked Lou Xiao'e to tell him about the process of this matter.
Lou Xiao'e told her father everything.
"Just this handwriting alone can be called a master of art. What a pity, what a pity.”
When Lou Cheng's father heard this, his face was filled with regret.
He was regretting that if only Han Qiye had become Lou Xiao'e's husband.
No matter what, he was still much better than Xu Damao, that short-sighted person.
