Chapter 287: Last year, this girl was giving blind orders, and this year she is giving blind orders

Chapter 287 Last year, this girl was giving blind orders, and this year she is giving blind orders again

Jiang Yi's family wanted to invite the Xu family to come over for a reunion dinner, so there was no need for Jiang Yi to go and call them. He just needed to tell Xu Jianhua in the morning, and he could convey their meaning accurately.

In particular, the Xu family always told Jiang Yi that if he had something to do, he didn't need to go there directly, but just tell Xu Jianhua or send someone to deliver a message.

Since the winter vacation, Xu Jianhua has brought Huanhuan to Xu Yu's house every day after cutting the grass needed for the family. The Xu family now gives him the task of looking after his sister and going back to call them as soon as his sister is about to give birth.

When he learned that he would have a reunion dinner at his sister's house, he was so happy that he almost jumped up.

He followed Xu Yu, who was walking slowly, and asked her, "Sister, can we come earlier that day?"

Xu Yu smiled and nodded: "Yes, your brother-in-law will kill a rooster early in the morning, and you can get the most beautiful tail feathers on the rooster."

"Okay, I'll ask mom to make shuttlecocks for us then."

Huanhuan was also following behind Xu Yu. When she heard this, she looked up at the two of them and smiled with joy.

Xu Yu looked at Huanhuan's fair and tender face, touched her head, and asked, "Huanhuan, do you want a shuttlecock?"

Huanhuan nodded seriously, her voice soft and sticky: "I do."

Xu Yu couldn't help but touch her little head again.

Today the Jiang family is preparing for a thorough cleaning.

After dinner, Xu Jianhua was not in a hurry to take Huanhuan back home. He first let Huanhuan follow his sister, and then went to help.

Jiang Yi used long bamboo poles to tie several three-meter-long bamboo brooms in the yard, which were just right for sweeping the roof.

Yang Wenhui made hats out of newspaper for several people. Xu Jianhua also asked for one and put it on his head. He said to Jiang Yi, "Brother-in-law, I will help you clean up."

Yang Wenhui smiled and praised: "Jianhua is really hardworking."

Xu Yu asked him, "Jianhua, have you cleaned the house yet?"

"No, Mom said we'll do the general cleaning today as well." Xu Jianhua replied, adding, "I'll go back and do the general cleaning after I finish helping my sister's family."

Xu Yu was amused: "You've been really busy this day."

"hey-hey……"

While Jiang Yi and the others were cleaning, Xu Yu stood in the yard with Huanhuan.

It was windy today, so Jiang Yi took out Xu Yu's cloak and put it on her, and then put on her hat.

After Dr. Chang returned, he sent Huanhuan a lot of winter clothes and also specially sent fabric to Kang Kang.

Huanhuan was brought over by Xu Jianhua and was also wearing a hat.

She is petite, but now she looks like a doll since she gained weight on her cheeks.

In particular, Xu Jianhua did what he said. Except for Zhang Dongmei taking Huanhuan to wash and go to bed at night, he was the one who helped Huanhuan wash her face and comb her hair in the morning.

In his own words, "A real man keeps his word. I promised Aunt Chang to take care of Sister Huanhuan. I will definitely take good care of Sister Huanhuan and not burden my parents and sister-in-law."

Xu Jianhua not only brought Huanhuan with him, but also brought his little nephew with him most of the time during the day.

How can one not like such a sensible and hardworking brother-in-law?

Xu Yu thought about the money that Dr. Chang brought to his mother and the others, and he didn't know how to give it to them so that they would feel at ease to accept it.

After Xu Jianhua finished helping and took Huanhuan back, Xu Yu told Jiang Yi about his troubles.

Jiang Yi thought for a moment and said, "Just tell Mom and the others. Doctor Chang's salary is high, so fifty yuan a month isn't too much."

"Mom, they definitely don't want it."

"Then let them take it first and return it to Dr. Chang later."

Xu Yu thought this was a good reason and stopped worrying about it.

There is no 30th day of the twelfth lunar month this year, and the 29th is New Year's Eve.

So on the 28th, Jiang Yi called several comrades over in the morning and assigned them tasks.

He was worried about Xu Yu, so this year he gave the task of taking them to the mountains to hunt wild game to Dingdang.

Xu Yu looked at Jiang Yi, who was telling them not to go too deep and to be back before dinner. He thought of something and called Dingdang.

After Dingdang came over, Xu Yu said, "Dingdang, you saw Xiaohu. Ask him to come back tomorrow night."

Dingdang whimpered twice to indicate that she understood.

After Dingdang took them out, Xu Yu said to Jiang Yi who was supporting him, "Xiao Hu stayed up with us last year, so let Xiao Hu come back and stay up with us this year too."

Jiang Yi had no objection.

In the afternoon, Yang Wenhui took two female doctors to wash and cook the cured meat.

Jiang Yi was responsible for pasting couplets and window decorations at home.

Xu Yu followed Jiang Yi with her big belly, responsible for directing him to stick it.

"Higher, lower, lower."

"A little to the left."

"Too left, a little to the right."

Doctor Hu, who was standing nearby watching the excitement, saw this and said to Doctor Huang with a smile, "Old Huang, does this scene look familiar to you? Last year, this girl was giving blind orders, and this year, she's giving blind orders again."

Doctor Huang still didn't respond and even glanced at him.

……

The Xu family arrived early the next morning.

As soon as everyone arrived, they helped to kill chickens and ducks and prepare the reunion dinner at noon.

Xu Yu, his grandparents, and his sister-in-law who was holding Kang Kang were sitting by the fireplace in the main room.

Grandpa and grandma are also particularly concerned about Xu Yu's belly.

Grandma said, "I haven't been able to sleep well these past few days. Whenever I fall asleep, I dream that you gave birth."

Grandpa also said: "Your grandma now burns incense to the Bodhisattva every day, asking them to bless you and your child with safety."

Xu Yu smiled, feeling a little touched, and said, "Grandpa and grandma, don't worry. Grandpa Hu brought two doctors who specialize in delivering babies. They are very capable."

The two smiled and nodded.

Xu Yu asked Zhao Cui'e again: "Sister-in-law, is it true that my brother won't be back these two days?"

Zhao Cui'e smiled and shook her head, saying, "Your eldest brother said that he and his colleagues will switch shifts these days and come back when you are about to give birth."

Xu Yu touched her belly and said, "Who wouldn't come home for the New Year? His job is good, but he has too few vacations."

Especially when I’m far away from home, I have to accumulate a few days of vacation every time I want to come back.

Zhao Cui'e thought her husband was fine this way: "We don't have to go back to my parents' home for the New Year anyway, so it doesn't matter if he comes back later."

If her situation hadn't been special and her leader hadn't granted her two extra months of rest, she would have gone back to work long ago.

Regardless of whether she goes back to work or not, Zhao Cui'e has made up her mind not to go back to her parents' home this year. She has told Xu Jianjun about this before.

Xu Yu also agreed, and stretched out his hand to tease Kang Kang, who was sitting in Zhao Cui'e's arms: "Kang Kang, little darling, your dad comes back once a month. Do you still recognize him when he comes back?"

Kang Kang is already four months old and can laugh and babble.

He also likes Xu Yu. Whenever Xu Yu teases him, he smiles at her and responds to her with "ah ah oh oh".

Xu Yu also followed and said "ah ah oh oh".

The aunt and niece seemed to have no communication barriers.

Zhao Cui'e couldn't help laughing and said, "Indeed, the last time I came back, Kang Kang took a while to recognize him before letting him hold him."

Hearing this, Xu Yu laughed out loud.

At this time, the excited voices of Xu Jianhua and Huanhuan came from outside the door.

Xu Jianhua: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, take off all the hair on the tail. Huanhuan and I want it."

Huanhuan: "Brother-in-law, I want the tail hair."

Soon, two children came in, each holding a handful of beautiful tail hair.

Zhao Cui'e asked with a smile, "Where did you take the tail hair?"

Xu Jianhua said, "Let's put it away first and take it back with us when we return."

Zhao Cui'e nodded: "Okay, sister-in-law will make you beautiful shuttlecocks when the time comes."

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

After the two of them let down their tail hair, Zhao Cui'e asked Xu Jianhua to take Kang Kang, who was sitting in a children's wooden chair, gave him a few instructions, and then went out to help.

Kang Kang was holding the rattle that Jiang Yi had made for him before. He was shaking the rattle happily, standing up and sitting down from time to time.

The kitchen fried some crispy pork and brought it over for Xu Yu and the others to eat.

Kang Kang was so anxious that he kept shouting "Ahhh".

Xu Yu smiled and said, "Kang Kang, my dear, you haven't grown teeth yet, so you can't eat this."

Then he asked Xu Jianhua to get a rice popsicle and let Kang Kang hold it and eat it himself before he stopped.

At around ten o'clock, Xu Yu thought that his uncle and Jiang Jun had gone to the provincial capital, and only his aunt and Shi Lan were at home, so he said to Jiang Yi, "Why don't we call his aunt and Shi Lan over to have a reunion dinner together?"

Jiang Yi nodded.

Grandma then said, "Call your Third Aunt and the others over. Your grandparents will surely come too."

They had witnessed how shameless those two people were since the last time they had the pig-killing meal, and grandma really didn't like them.

Xu Yu didn't say anything, but looked at Jiang Yi and let him decide whether to call them or not.

Jiang Yi said nothing, turned around and went out to ask his father to call someone.

When it was almost time to have the reunion dinner at noon, the grandparents from the Jiang family didn't come.

Xu Yu was a little surprised and asked Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi told him, "Dad directly brought a duck and a piece of bacon to Grandpa and said that no matter how much he ate, he should not come to our house at noon today."

Xu Yu nodded with satisfaction.

The dishes were almost ready. Jiang Qingyun asked Jiang Yi to offer sacrifices to the ancestors and set off firecrackers, and then everyone sat down around the table.

Xu Yu picked up the heated goat milk and said to everyone, "Come, let's have a toast. I wish everyone a happy New Year's Eve!"

Everyone raised their glasses and said in unison: "Happy New Year's Eve!"
