Chapter 258 Arriving Home

In this era, contracted banquets were not yet popular, and it was not popular to go to restaurants in rural areas. Instead, a chef was hired to set up a temporary large stove to cook the banquet meals.

Tables, chairs and benches are also borrowed from neighbors here and there. When returning them, just give them a handful of candies. This is done for everyone’s weddings and everyone is used to it. It not only enhances neighborly relations, but also brings joy to each other.

Speaking of this, Zhang Chunlan was a little ashamed. The small square table she had been using at home had been used for many years. There was no big square table at all, and naturally it didn't have a big bench, so other people held weddings.

She always helped wash the dishes, but she never lent anything to others.

Fortunately, we are all fellow villagers, and no one cares about this. After all, the efforts are the same.

Even if they don't like each other or don't like each other, they will always help enthusiastically when they go to someone's house for weddings and funerals, without much thought. This may be the simplicity of country people.

Having two weddings a year and marrying two daughters-in-law is rare in the countryside. Lin Fengying is naturally very happy, but she is afraid that Tong Yao will have objections to these. After all, when Tong Yao got married, it was not so lively.

Although the banquet was beautifully organized, the eldest son paid for the banquet. She had no ability and could not help much.

Si Chen didn't have any objections to Lin Fengying's arrangement. He nodded and said, "Have you bought all the candies? It's best to prepare more."

"I've bought it." Lin Fengying was very happy to see that her eldest son had no objection and cared about not getting things done wrong. "I bought twenty kilograms of candies. Everyone wants to be happy, and everyone will be happy if I prepare more candies."

When Si Chen got married, Si Chen bought ten kilograms of candies. Lin Fengying still felt that she bought too much. She felt that this kind of thing was just what it meant, so there was no need to waste money.

Now that her family's conditions are better, and she is very satisfied with Zhang Lijuan, she wants to be more considerate in everything, so as to prevent the villagers from gossiping and Chen Jinlan from finding fault.

These candies are not considered a good thing in the 21st century, but in this era they are snacks that everyone likes. Both adults and children like them very much. Therefore, when there is a happy event in the family, children from several nearby villages come to wait for it.

Pick up candies and eat them.

Buying too many candies is also a matter of saving face.

"Yeah." Si Chen nodded expressionlessly, without saying much.

Finally, after everyone finished eating, Si Xiaohui couldn't wait to chase Tong Yao and asked, "Sister-in-law, what kind of surprise did you say you gave me?"

When Si Boyi saw her asking Tong Yao for something, he frowned and said, "My sister-in-law and my brother came all the way back in the car. Are you sensible after chasing my sister-in-law for a surprise?"

Si Xiaohui felt that Si Boyi was just a dog meddling in other people's business, so she glared at him and said, "The surprise my sister-in-law said for me is not what I wanted."

She was about to get married, and there was a lot going on in the past two days. Si Boyi didn't bother to argue with her, and bent down to help Lin Fengying clear the table.

While eating, Tong Yao noticed that Si Xiaohui had been staring at the travel bag. She didn't show off, walked over and opened the travel bag, "I bought you clothes."

"Sister-in-law, did you really buy me clothes?"

Si Xiaohui's eyes lit up instantly as if there were light bulbs installed. She took the clothes handed over by Tong Yao. She didn't mind the cold, so she took off her coat and tried it on. Not to mention, it seemed to fit her well, and she liked the style.

Like it very much.

Si Xiaohui happily walked around the room, "Sister-in-law, don't you look good?"

"It looks good." Tong Yao smiled and took out another light brown cotton coat, "Mom, I bought one for you too."

Seeing that Tong Yao was so kind to her daughter, Lin Fengying was also very happy, with a smile on her face. When she heard that she had bought one for herself, she was stunned.

"Yao Yao, this is a lot of money! You don't have to buy it for me. I can just wear a cotton jacket at home. It's warm." The key is that it's affordable.

Clothes in this big city must cost a lot of money.

Lin Fengying was very happy when her daughter-in-law bought her clothes, but she was more concerned about the money. Clothes in the city were expensive, and this piece of clothing cost at least tens or hundreds of yuan, which was enough for an ordinary person to marry a daughter-in-law.

"Mom, my sister-in-law has bought them for you. Hurry up and try to see if they fit." Si Xiaohui took the clothes from Tong Yao's hand and pushed Lin Fengying into the house, insisting that she try them on too.

I used to think that Tong Yao was lazy and delicious, but now Si Xiaohui likes Tong Yao not to mention how much she likes her. Whose sister-in-law is so nice? She can buy this and that, and even help her get married.

Seeing them so happy, Tong Yao was in a good mood and took out another set of clothes from her travel bag, "Bo Yi, I bought them for you too. This set is just for your wedding."

In this era, it was not popular to wear suits when getting married in the countryside, and it was quite cold to wear a suit in the winter, so Tong Yao specially selected a new black cotton suit for Si Boyi, which was perfect for the wedding.

Unexpectedly, Tong Yao also bought him clothes. Si Boyi was a little touched and a little embarrassed. Except for Lin Fengying, no one else had bought him clothes.

Seeing him standing still, Si Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Since you bought it, go and try it to see if it fits."

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Si Boyi came to his senses and quickly took the clothes.

"Bo Yi." Zhang Lijuan's voice suddenly came from the door. Before Si Boyi could turn around, Zhang Lijuan had already entered the main room.

Seeing that Tong Yao and Si Chen had arrived, Zhang Lijuan was stunned and immediately called out, "Sister-in-law, brother."

When Zhang Lijuan met Si Chen in the past, although she also called her brother, she always added Si Chen's name in front of it. Now that she is marrying Si Boyi, she also knows how to avoid suspicion, but the moment she saw Si Chen, she still couldn't control her heart.

It throbbed a little.

To be honest, Si Boyi is pretty good-looking, but standing next to Si Chen, the gap becomes obvious.

The two of them are simply worlds apart, with different temperaments. Si Chen is a capable person at first glance, while Si Boyi can only be regarded as a person who earns a living. There is a big difference in social status.

And Tong Yao, like taking an elixir, became more and more beautiful as she grew older. She was dressed like a big star from a TV series. She couldn't help but want to look at her more, not to mention those men.

It's no wonder that Si Chen looks down on her. With a daughter-in-law like Tong Yao who is like a goblin, what man would have evil thoughts!

"Lijuan, why are you here when there is so much snow outside?" Lin Fengying came out of the house after changing her clothes. When she saw Zhang Lijuan coming, she quickly came over and touched her hand, "Look, these little hands are cold, very cold.

Come on! Hurry up and sit in front of the brazier to warm yourself up."

Zhang Lijuan saw Lin Fengying wearing new clothes, and Si Xiaohui who followed him was also wearing new clothes. Then she saw Si Boyi also holding new clothes in his hands and an open travel bag on the ground. She instantly understood something and the smile on her face

Can't hang on anymore.

"I was thinking that my eldest brother and sister-in-law would come back tonight, and I was afraid that there wouldn't be enough room here, so I wanted to ask Xiaohui if she wanted to sleep with me."
