"Mom, don't worry! Now that we've separated from the old house and have started a small business, we're not short of money. Life is different now. Please don't worry about this gift from your daughter," Mo's mother explained patiently.

It's fine as long as life is easy, but you have to spend the money sparingly. After all, the child is still young, and there will be more places to spend the money in the future, said Old Lady Yu sincerely.

This made Mo Rao have a much better impression of this grandmother. After all, most families favor boys over girls and are always thinking about how to get benefits from their married daughters.

And this old lady Yu also really cared about Mo's mother. From the original owner's memory, this grandma was also good to them.

At this time, Xiao Zhou's eyes turned, as if she thought of something, so she stepped forward and said, "You two can talk here for a while, I'll go cook." As she said that, Xiao Zhou took the chicken, duck, fish and goose placed aside and went into the kitchen.

When Old Lady Yu saw the things that Xiao Zhou's daughter had brought, she said dissatisfiedly, "Old Wife, what are you doing with these? Don't we have chicken and meat at home? Let his aunt take these back later. Just put them where you want and don't touch them."

Xiao Zhou muttered: How can you take something and then take it back? Isn't this just for fun?

"What are you talking about, you short-sighted person?" Old Mrs. Yu said angrily.

Mo's mother tried to smooth things over, saying, "Sister-in-law is right, mother. How can we bring it here and then take it back? If others see it, won't we be laughed at for nothing?"

Hearing her daughter say this, Old Mrs. Yu didn't want to make things difficult for her, so she thought about it and decided to give her daughter the two laying hens when they left.

Sister-in-law, let me help you with cooking. Mo's mother stood up and prepared to help.

How could Xiao Zhou be willing to let her help? She was thinking of hiding a piece of meat to send to her parents' home while cooking. If she asked her sister-in-law to help, she would have no chance to hide the meat. If her sister-in-law left, the meat would definitely be locked up by Old Lady Yu, and there would be no chance at all.

Finally, after Xiao Zhou repeatedly refused, Mo's mother had to sit down and chat with Old Mrs. Yu.

Old Mrs. Yu took out the red envelopes she had prepared in advance and gave one to each of the children in the family. Even Li Lingye received a red envelope. Although the red envelope only contained five cents, it was already a lot considering the Yu family's living conditions.

Mo's mother had also prepared red envelopes, but the two children from her eldest brother's family hadn't returned yet. She figured it wouldn't be too late to give them to them once she saw them. Mo's mother took out two silver ingots, ten taels each, making twenty taels. She quietly handed the twenty taels to Old Lady Yu. Seeing so much silver, Old Lady Yu quickly refused to accept it.

Kid, put all this money away quickly. Even if you have money, you don't have to squander it. You want to be like your sister-in-law, sucking the blood of your husband's family to support your parents' family? I don't agree with this. You can't learn from anyone but your sister-in-law.

"Mother, what are you thinking? I have money. My mother-in-law is the head of the family. All the money is in her hands. I only have some pocket money. What I give you is just a small part of my pocket money.

Old Lady Yu had no idea her daughter's family was so wealthy, so she had no choice but to put the money away. As long as her daughter didn't look like Xiao Zhou, she was fine. She didn't want her daughter to support her parents and make her own family poor. She didn't want to enjoy such a good life.

Yu Wangsheng soon borrowed tables, chairs and benches from his neighbor next door.

Old Man Yu naturally invited his cousins ​​and the village chief to his home. After all, it was a great honor for them to have their daughter return to her parents' home.

This girl is so capable. Naturally, he wants to show off in front of these villagers.

When Yu Sheng Yu Cai heard that her sister-in-law had returned, she ran back like a whirlwind.

When I entered the main hall and saw my sister-in-law and her family, I immediately called out sweetly, "Hello, little aunt, uncle, big cousin, second cousin, little cousin, little cousin."

Hey, Mo's mother and others responded in unison.

As for Li Lingye next to them, they didn’t know how to address him, and they didn’t know that their cousin was already married.

Old Mrs. Yu hurriedly said: This is your cousin-in-law.

After hearing this, the two of them shouted hello to their cousin-in-law.

Mo's mother took the lead and gave one red envelope to each of them.

Thank you, aunt-in-law, the two said sweetly.

Li Lingye also prepared red envelopes for the two of them. After all, it was their first meeting, so they had to give the proper holiday gifts.

The two didn't expect Li Lingye to give them a red envelope, so they smiled and said: Thank you, cousin-in-law.

Knowing that her daughter's family was not short of money, Old Mrs. Yu did not object to her daughter giving red envelopes to these children.

After a while, the table and benches in the main room turned white.

There were two tables in the main room, one for men and one for women.

Soon, Xiao Zhou's meal was ready. It was a simple affair: bacon and cabbage, radish and chicken soup, fried peanuts, scrambled eggs with cabbage, cabbage and tofu, and tofu and fish. These were all homely dishes, but in their eyes, they were considered a feast.

The old couple in the Yu family don’t just care about the feast. These good things are brought by their daughter, and they must be prepared for their daughter’s family.

When the village chief and Old Man Yu’s brothers saw how sumptuous the meal was at Old Man Yu’s house, they were also shocked. It was so sumptuous! They didn’t even dare to eat like this during the Chinese New Year.

Although Mrs. Yu was not satisfied with the food, she did not say anything. Everyone saw that the food was indeed rich and plentiful.

Only Old Mrs. Yu knows how much stuff her daughter-in-law took away!

There were two large plates of fried bacon and cabbage, and it was obvious that there was more cabbage and not much bacon.

The chicken stewed with radish, with two large bowls full of chicken soup, looks very rich, but a closer look reveals that the radish takes up more than half of the meal.

This means there's still a lot of meat left. It's hard to say anything in front of others right now. We can only talk about it later.

Mo Rao and the others thought it was nothing. The villagers were frugal, so it was normal. No one would eat all the meat in one meal. Although it was not a famine year, the meat could not be eaten whenever they wanted.

As for Yu Wangsheng's uncle, he gave people the impression of being an honest and hardworking man. As for Xiao Zhou, her personality was the opposite of Yu Wangsheng's. Xiao Zhou was the kind of person who had a lot of tricks in her head.

Mo Rao liked her two cousins ​​more. They were lively and not reserved at all. She would talk to them about this and that without stopping.

The eldest grandson of the Yu family, Xiao Zhou's eldest son and Mo Rao's eldest cousin, is currently at his wife's parents' home.

Old man Yu opened the wine his daughter brought and shared it with everyone. As soon as the wine was opened, the aroma filled the air, making the village chief and clan brothers present extremely envious.

Old Man Yu was extremely proud in the face of everyone's envious gazes, and kept pulling Li Lingye, his grandson-in-law, to have a drink.

Li Lingye naturally would not spoil the old man's mood, so he just had a few drinks with these people.

The people at the table were always very reserved when eating. They always felt that Li Lingye was not an ordinary person, so they ate with their stomachs held back, always afraid of being laughed at by the rich young man.

After the meal, only half of the dishes on the table were eaten. Under normal circumstances, there would be no dishes left. Old Man Yu was in high spirits and drank a few more glasses. He was even a little unsteady when walking. Old Mrs. Mo was afraid that he would fall, so she let him sleep on the kang to rest.

Old Man Yu was naturally not the kind of person who would not listen to advice, so he just lay down on the kang to rest.
