Chapter 38 When I open my eyes in the morning, I see you
Qiao Xiazhi smiled and said, "It's probably not my idea to hit him. After all, I'm definitely older than his son, not to mention that I'm already married. Your brother-in-law and I have a military marriage, and you'll go to jail if you break it."
"Also, she asked you three how old you were as soon as you got in the car, so there should be no doubt what your brother-in-law said."
Qiao Moli looked scared: "No way, Sister Dongzhi and I are not yet adults, let alone Xiaohua."
Qiao Xiazhi: "If you are not yet an adult, then you will be there soon. Set up the marriage and wait until you are an adult, can't you get married? You are younger than me, so you should be 17. Wait for three years and you will be 20. That's just right, you two will be 18."
Qiao Xiaohua: "Sister Xiazhi, please don't say such scary things. Don't scare Sister Dongzhi and Sister Moli. They can afford to drive a car, so how could they look down on country people like us?"
Qiao Xiazhi smiled and deliberately joked, "That's not necessarily true."
"Why, if such a rich family wants you to be their daughter-in-law, isn't that a good thing? Looking at their family conditions, you won't have to work hard if you marry into their family."
Hearing this, Qiao Moli hurriedly said, "Then hurry up. We might have fantasized about it before, but now we know how much we are worth."
"And Sister Xia Zhi, haven't you always taught us to be down-to-earth and that there is no such thing as a free lunch? How come you forgot that again and want to go back to the way things were before?"
As soon as these words came out, Qiao Xiaohua became anxious: "Don't do that, Sister Xia Zhi, I still like you as you are now, please don't go back to the way you were before."
Seeing this, Qiao Xiazhi smiled and said, "Of course I didn't forget. I just wanted to see if you had forgotten. But now it seems that I was worrying unnecessarily."
"Okay, take turns to take a bath first, and then have dinner. Go to bed early tonight, and we will go to another place to play tomorrow."
As soon as they heard there was something to do, the three guys went straight into the bathroom to take a shower together.
Since they are all girls anyway, Qiao Xiazhi doesn’t care about them. As long as they are washed clean and smell good, it’s fine.
After dinner, there was no TV at home at that time, so we chatted for a while and then went back to our rooms to rest.
This was the room where Qiao Xiazhi slept before the three guys slept.
As soon as Qiao Xiazhi finished taking a shower and returned to his room, Jiang Yunchen grabbed him.
Before she could scream, the sound was swallowed up by the kiss.
Finally, he only uttered a long, "Hmm~~~"
Jiang Yunchen's kiss was gentle and lingering, and Qiao Xiazhi quickly fell for it. He raised his hands to wrap around his neck and hung his whole body on him.
After the happiness, Jiang Yunchen fell asleep contentedly while hugging his wife.
Have a good night's sleep——
In the early morning, as soon as Jiang Yunchen opened his eyes, he could see his sweet and soft wife in his arms.
Qiao Xiazhi opened his eyes and met his eyes.
"Good morning~~"
Qiao Xiazhi greets her man.
But the next second, she was greeted by another sudden change.
Afterwards, Qiao Xiazhi regretted that he should not have given him the supernatural power after what happened last night, which caused this guy to go through it again early in the morning before he was willing to give up.
The end result was that the couple were the last ones to get up in the house.
This is such a complete loss of face.
After breakfast, I had planned to take my three younger sisters out for a walk.
But since the heavy rain did not stop, they had to give up, and the family ended up staying at home playing flying chess.
But there's nothing fun to do outside at this time.
The tourism industry has not yet taken off and there is no place to visit.
There are very few places to play.
It seems that there is nothing fun to do except shopping.
And you can only go shopping in department stores.
After all, self-employment is prohibited at this time.
Without individual businesses, there would be no so-called pedestrian streets or food streets.
It's definitely less fun.
With nowhere to go, the three sisters ended up staying at home and playing with their grandmother for two days.
The third day is the day to return home.
Fortunately, the rain stopped when I returned home.
Early in the morning, Jiang Yunchen started moving large and small bags into the car. Qiao Xiazhi was so shocked when he saw the boxes of things.
"What are you doing? These don't cost money? Oh my god, yesterday you asked me to take a hundred dollars to buy these things?"
"It's just a visit. Others accompany their wives to visit their parents' homes because they are afraid that they will empty the house. Are you afraid that you won't be able to empty the house?"
"When we got married, my parents and grandparents needed to eat all the food you prepared as part of the betrothal gift for a long time. You prepared so much again!!
“Are you crazy!!!”
Grandma Jiang at the side said with a smile: "Silly child, going back to your parents' home is equivalent to recognizing your relatives. Some relatives at home need to go and send gifts to recognize the relatives. Besides, we don't have many relatives here, so it would be good for you to visit your relatives on your mother's side more often."
"I know I have to give gifts to relatives and friends, but it's not that exaggerated. If we go this way, our family will become poor. It's not easy for us to make money. It's okay to visit relatives who have good relationships, but there's no need to waste money on those who don't." Qiao Xiazhi looked painful. It was all about money!
In the 1970s here, people would return to their parents’ home three days after the wedding. When the new son-in-law came to the house for the first time, all the relatives on the bride’s side would go to greet him.
But nothing was as exaggerated as what Jiang Yunchen prepared.
For relatives from the same clan, the best gift is a bag of sugar weighing about one pound when you meet them.
It would only cost a few dollars to visit all the relatives and get the job done.
However, during the Chinese New Year, children do not need to be given red envelopes.
Then, for the uncles and aunts of my father-in-law's generation, usually just a bag of sugar and a bottle of wine will do.
Jiang Yunchen felt so happy when he saw his wife's painful expression.
"Don't worry, your husband and I know all about these gifts. I have already discussed it with Dad a long time ago. They are calculated according to each family."
"My uncle's family gave me two bottles of Maotai, two packs of cigarettes, and two bags of candy. That's not too much, right? All together it's only a dozen yuan."
"You can't favor one over the other, right? Although what you said the other day makes sense, if my uncle's family has something that they don't, then it doesn't mean they picked it up."
"There are also grandparents, parents and grandparents. It's impossible for them to be missing. How can other families have something that our family doesn't have?"
"For the rest of the uncles and aunts from the same clan, I only prepared a bag of white sugar and a bag of Little White Rabbit candy, which is not a lot. And I am also trying to save face for you and your father-in-law and mother-in-law."
"Before, our family was not well off and we were always looked down upon. Now that we have the means, we must naturally earn back the reputation for our elders!"
When Qiao Xiazhi heard this, she was still very touched by Jiang Yunchen's actions, but her face darkened when she thought of those so-called relatives at home.
So he said, "Reputation is not maintained by how many gifts we give them. Reputation is maintained by having money in our own pockets and by the prosperity of our family."
"Some people are evil. No matter how many gifts you give them, they will never be satisfied. Instead of spending money on gifts for them, we might as well eat better ourselves."
"Listen to me, uncles from the same clan should only take a bag of sugar, and don't take anything else. If they say they dislike it, then we won't have to leave in the future."
"As for my uncle and the two aunts, I'll give my uncle some money as usual, and as for the two aunts, I'll just have my eldest brother secretly send some money over and tell them. We won't have to go around there."
"If you give too many gifts, it will be a waste. If you give too few, those people might think that Auntie has kept them for nothing and will cause trouble for her."
"Instead of this, we might as well stop hanging out in public. At most, they'll just say a few words to us, but we won't be able to hear them anyway."
Besides, it wasn't that Qiao Xiazhi was stingy. She had some understanding of the character of her two aunts' mothers-in-law. She didn't visit them openly because she was thinking about their small family.
She doesn't want to be entangled by those people.
As for the uncles and aunts from her mother's family, given Qiao Xiazhi's temper, she wouldn't want to leave.
When my grandfather's father squandered the family's money, they talked behind his back and watched him make a fool of himself.
There was only one great uncle, who was also my grandfather’s cousin, who helped their family back then.
These are what she slowly heard from her grandparents during this period.
As for that cousin, just give him an extra cigarette in private.
The rest is just for grandpa’s sake. I don’t want to make things difficult for him, so it’s enough as long as the intention is conveyed.
The main reason is that people of my grandfather’s generation have different ideas. Even if others look down on your family because they are poor, you still have to observe proper manners.
If she was polite, they would come and say that she believed that Grandpa would make his own decision. It didn't matter if she didn't leave in the future, because she was a married daughter anyway.
She didn't know that Jiang Yunchen prepared a pig for her wedding day. If she had known, she would definitely not let him be so generous.
But what was given before has already been given, so forget it.
Hearing this, Jiang Yunchen said, "Then buy all these things."
Qiao Xiazhi: "Take it down and put it at home. You can take it out to visit relatives during the New Year. Our family's money didn't come from the wind. Even if we have a lot of money, we won't spend it like this."
Grandma Jiang, who was standing by, felt that what Qiao Xiazhi said made a lot of sense. She also agreed with him and helped persuade her grandson: "Xiazhi is right. Let's do as Xiazhi said."
So Jiang Yunchen obediently moved the extra gifts out of the car.
After going through all this, the couple set off back to their parents’ home with their three younger sisters.
The breeze blew across my cheeks, and the depressed mood just now disappeared instantly, replaced by the joy of returning to my mother's home.
Qiao Xiazhi has always been good at adjusting his mood and never gets angry for too long over trivial matters.
After returning to her mother's house, grandpa took Qiao Xiazhi and Jiang Yunchen to greet the family before dinner was served.
Everything was fine when we went to the first few houses. At least those people knew Jiang Yunchen's identity, and they were polite to him and invited them to have lunch.
When they arrived at the last cousin's house, they went into the house, took out the candy, exchanged a few polite words, and prepared to leave.
But just as I walked out of the door and before I left the yard, my cousin's wife in the house said something, I don't know whether it was intentional or not.
"Oh, this guy married well, but he still can't change his petty mind. I guess he spent all the money on the wedding to show off his wealth. Look at this wedding gift, I thought it would be so good?"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Qiping, who was walking in front, turned back and took the candy on the table.
Then he did not show any mercy to the other party and shouted back loudly, saying:
"Whether our Xia Zhi married well or badly, that was her fate. Whether she was rich or poor, the gifts she gave, no matter how much, were all out of courtesy for the younger generation. As an elder, you didn't even offer her a cup of tea. How can you act like an elder? Since you dislike this gift, it's just right to save it for us. We can save more money in the future."
After saying that, Qiao Qiping took the candy back and left with Qiao Xiazhi and Jiang Yunchen.
Don't give the other person a chance to argue with you.
