Chapter 23 High

On the fourth and fifth day of the lunar month, the Qi family was lively for two consecutive days. On the sixth day of the lunar month, no guests came to pay New Year's greetings.

Mr. Zeng and his family came to pay New Year's greetings. Qi Peiji and his wife greeted Mr. Zeng and his family warmly and politely. The two families looked very close.

Boss Zeng used to look down on people like Qi Weisi who were unpromising, but the Zeng family is now in a downturn. He now looks down on Qi Weisi, but Qi Weisi's attitude towards him has never changed.

Tong Juanzi tried hard to get along with sister-in-law Qian, but the results were not great. She could only talk to Sun Sanhua about the lively New Year's events in her mother's village, but Sun Sanhua did not accept her topic.

The sisters of the Qi family went directly to work in the kitchen. Zeng Xiangsi sisters could not find the opportunity to talk to the Qi sisters. The two sons of the Zeng family were still young and did not want to leave their parents. After the Qi brothers greeted the eldest son of Zeng and his wife, they quickly left the room.

After the old man Zeng and his wife paid New Year's greetings, it was not convenient for them to stay at Qi's house soon. They quickly got up and left. After their family left, Qi Peiji sighed: "Getting a wife requires marrying a virtuous person. When he was young, he still had some ambition and backbone."

Zhou looked at Qi Peiji for a few glances: "When his father was alive, he was no longer successful. His father is no longer here, and his temperament has been fixed. People around him have no more troubles. He is also useless to do nothing."

Qi Peiji looked up at Zhou: "I don't have any ideas, don't think too much. If I have that skill, it's better to watch the behavior of my children and grandchildren. At most, when my nephews come to my house, I will say a few more gossips."

Zhou secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Zhou saw what Boss Zeng had to do with Qi Weisi in the past and what his attitude towards Qi Weisi now. Qi Weisi had never changed anything since he was young, but Boss Zeng seemed to have changed.

Zhou was unwilling to have too much contact with Mr. Zeng’s family, but his daughter-in-law Sun Sanhua cherished Tong Juanzi as a friend. She did not want to interfere in making friends with her daughter-in-law. Fortunately, their grandchildren understood more clearly than parents.

Qi Shan heard about the departure of Mr. Zeng’s family in the big kitchen. She walked out to take a look and then entered the big kitchen with a smile. Qian saw her smile and smiled at the Qi sisters and said, “There is nothing in the kitchen, you all go out to play.”

When Qi Ying heard Qian's words, she took the lead in the kitchen. Qi Shan followed her and the sisters stood in the yard. At this moment, they thought of something fun.

From the beginning of the year to the end of the year, they followed the arrangements of adults to do things. At this moment, the sisters were together, and at a moment, they even thought of something to play with.

Qi Ying thought for a while: "Let's play jumping rope together?"

"Sister Ying, on the New Year's Day, if someone comes to your house and sees it, I'm afraid it's a bit undecent." Qi Yi reminded with a shy face.

Qi Ying was also a couple who got married and understood what Qi Yi meant at once. The sisters exchanged glances with each other. Qi Ying said to the sisters: "You guys play for yourself. It's cold. Let's go into the room and talk to our grandmother."

Qi Ying walked into the room. Qi Ying and the sisters looked at each other. Everyone chose to follow their sisters and they rushed into the room. Qi Peiji got up and left. He was not used to getting along with his granddaughters.

Zhou looked at the granddaughters surrounding her, and smiled. She cherished the time she spent with her granddaughters and found it particularly interesting when she heard her granddaughters talking about small things in daily life.

Qi Shan listened to his sisters' words and it turned out that such small things were also a big thing in life in the eyes of his sisters. Living a life is indeed a pleasure to taste in the slightest bit.

During lunch, the Qi family had a quiet meal. After the meal, Qi Weishan was already talking about the arrangements after the New Year. There were many things in spring. Qi Ying and other young women who had made marriages were all focused on housework, and they would not arrange for them to do things in the slums in the future.

He said again that in this way, there would be fewer people in the family. Xu Shenlin was going to go to the city to study, so he brought Qi Yuexing and his son to the family, and there would be more people in the family to do things.

Qi Shan was a little surprised when he heard his uncle's words. Qi Yuexing was pregnant now. Even if she went back to her parents' home, her aunt would not dare to arrange for her to do anything hard.

She quietly looked at the reactions of the people around her. When she saw Qi Weisi's expressionless face, Sun Sanhua also looked full of surprise on her face. The Qi sisters were all watching the expressions of the elders.

Qi Peiji and his wife didn't say anything, and Qi Weishan quickly decided on this matter. Qian said with a smile: "Xing'er's room before marriage has been empty for years and has no other use. In the past few days, I have taken the Ying'er sisters to clean the room."

The elders had no objection, so the Qi sisters naturally would not talk much. Qi Yuexing, the aunt, has always been close to their sisters. This aunt came to live in the house for a while. The adults allowed it, and they immediately showed a happy expression.

Qi Shan laughed, Qi Ying kept paying attention to her sister, and when she saw her, Qi Ying felt at ease. Anyway, her grandfather, uncle and aunt were the masters of the family, so they would just be content with their juniors.

Qi Shan didn't know that Qi Ying would worry about her reaction. The fact that Qi Yuexing and his son came back to live there would have no impact on their family.

In the afternoon, Qi Qiliang's brothers taught Qi Ying's sisters to recognize words. Qi Shan tried to read the Qi Qiliang's brothers enlightenment book. In one book, she only knew dozens of words, which made her speechless. She could only let Qi Qiliang's brothers teach her and Qi Ying's to recognize words from the first page.

There are books that compare and recognize words, and the sisters Qi Ying are interested in it. It is better than the Qi Qiliang brothers who taught him with an axe on the left and a hammer on the right. They at least know how to read books.

After the sisters recognized the words on the first page, they became a little proud. They treated Qi Qiliang's brothers directly to him, and they only had to raise their hands to feed them water.

The Qi Qiliang brothers felt proud, and they understood this time. They used to only teach Qi Ying sisters simple words, but never thought that Qi Ying sisters were not young anymore and they didn’t have to take scientific exams, so it is more important to be practical and read books.

Qi Qiliang said to Qi Ying sisters: "As long as you know all the words in this book, we will teach you arithmetic. In the future, you should be the head of a company and you should also know how to look at the in and out of the house. Don't let others fool you at will."

Qi Ying looked at Qi Qiliang happily. As long as this brother is promising, their sisters will definitely have a good marriage. Moreover, their brother also said that they would teach them arithmetic, so their sisters would not marry the farm worker in the future.

After the eldest aunt of the Qi family got married, she heard that her husband's family had many things and her mother-in-law was not kind, so she could not die of childbirth.

Since the eldest aunt's affairs came into being, the younger aunt's marriage was very cautious, but the Qi family's family's family was still not good at that time, and Qi Yuexing finally got married.
