Xu Shiqin has always obeyed the third brother's words, and she herself regrets not being able to take the college entrance examination.

When the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination first came out, Xu Shiqin was also eager to sign up.

As a result, the first requirement was to be in good health. She was not qualified, and it was a very sad time.

She had a job in the past few years, so she didn't think so much, but what the third brother said today rekindled her desire to learn.

Okay, I'll listen to my third brother. I'll tell my master after the year that I'm going to the capital to find a chance to study.

The siblings chatted for a while, then returned to the house to chat with their relatives and friends.

Everyone has the same aspirations, and no one knows how Han Liwei made his achievements.

It was Han Wenzhong who expressed his gratitude to Xu Shiyan.

If Xu Shiyan hadn't immediately arranged for mutton and venison to be delivered yesterday, Chef Zhang really didn't know what to add.

Shiyan, how much was the mutton and venison yesterday? I'll bring it to you. The Han family set up a banquet, and Xu Shiyan couldn't let him put money into it.

Uncle, why are you being polite to me?

We agreed that the two families will hold a banquet together. There are so many people passing by my house, and the money for the banquet has not been counted to you yet.

Xu Shiyan smiled and waved his hands, what is he doing so clearly? As long as Han Liwei and Xu Shiqin live a good life, everything else is floating clouds.

How can I do that? A deer costs a lot of money. You raised it to get velvet antlers. That's good, just kill it.

Han Wenzhong felt very distressed. One deer can get two crops of velvet, and the velvet alone can be sold for more than 1,000 yuan a year.

Besides, this deer can get velvet for many years. If this is the calculation, killing a deer will cost a lot.

Originally, the Han family said they were holding a banquet together, but it was just a name, and they didn't intend to charge the Xu family for the banquet at all.

There are only seven or eight tables of guests at the Xu family's side, and there are three tables for the family who sent off their relatives, which can't be counted.

How much is a table banquet this year? How can it be compared with a deer.

Uncle, there's no need for our two families to argue about this, I won't give you the money for the banquet, and you don't need to give me the money for mutton and venison, so that's it.

It's supposed to be our call from up the mountain, just to add something to Liwei and Shiqin's wedding.

Xu Shiyan smiled and waved his hands, unwilling to accept no matter what.

Xu Shiyan doesn't want it, and the Han family has nothing to do, so it can only be like this, and it will be made up later in the worst case.

At noon, the Han family prepared a very rich food and drink, and the big guys ate, drank and chatted together, which was very lively.

After one o'clock, the banquet broke up, and everyone in the Xu family left and went home.

It's already the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, and this year is the thirtieth New Year's Eve of the twelfth lunar month, and Xue Xiulin's sisters-in-law are starting to grow grass in her heart, thinking about going home quickly.

I haven't prepared much for the New Year, and I can't always live at my in-laws' house.

But Xu Shixian and his brothers insisted on staying another day, and they would leave after the younger sister came back tomorrow.

If Han Liwei accompanied Xu Shiqin back home tomorrow, it turned out that only the second and third brothers were there, and the rest of the elder brothers had left, how bad would it be?

Not only the brothers Xu Shixian didn't want to leave, but the children didn't want to leave either.

Here you can eat, play, and watch color TV.

Especially since Chinese New Year is approaching, CCTV also has programs during the day, these bear children love to watch TV, wishing they could stay at their grandparents' house forever.

Xue Xiulin has several sisters-in-law, but her husband and children are more stubborn, so she has no choice but to agree to live here.

Seeing this, Zhou Guilan knew that the daughters-in-law couldn't wait because of something in their hearts, so she simply led them to make noodles and started steaming steamed buns in the afternoon.

It’s the Chinese New Year, so I have to steam some jujube steamed buns and flower buns to celebrate.

In order to make the children happy, Zhou Guilan used all the unique skills of pressing the bottom of the box, making all kinds of jujube steamed buns and flower steamed buns.

They even dug out the molds and asked the children to help them make fish steamed buns, ingot steamed buns and so on.

Now the children are happy, and they are having a great time playing one by one.

Now, I have been busy until eight o'clock in the evening, steaming all kinds of steamed buns in five or six pots, and all the kangs in the east and west houses are burning my buttocks.

Originally, they all squeezed to the top of the kang, but now, they all ran to the top of the kang, no one wanted to sleep on the top of the kang, it was too hot.

On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Han Liwei and Xu Shiqin returned home with many things, and the Xu family warmly and grandly entertained the young couple.

The Xu family prepared more than a dozen dishes of chicken, duck and fish. Xu Shiyan and the others drank some wine with Han Liwei, and then the young couple stayed at the Xu family until around two o'clock in the afternoon before leaving.

Waiting to send Han Liwei and his wife away, Xu Chenghou called his sons to him.

There is one thing that I have wanted to say since you came back, but I have never had a chance.

Now the sixth child is also married, and today's visit is over, it's time to tell you.

Xu Shixian and the others are now most afraid of their father's attack. Every time father makes such a move, they have to be dealt with.

But Xu Chenghou had already spoken, and these few couldn't dodge if they wanted to, so what can they do? Just bite the bullet and listen.

It is estimated that the pension fee for next year will be fixed, and it is likely to increase some more money.

Well, let’s go up if it goes up, prices are also going up, old men and old ladies have to live too, don’t they?

That's the thing, your mother and I are getting older and can't do much in the future.

The old-age pensions given by the few of you are just a year of food and expenses, and you can't save much.

I thought about it for a long time, and after thinking about it, I sold the house. When Xu Chenghou said this, he paused and looked up at the sons.

Xu Shixian and the others were all stunned for a moment, with puzzled expressions on their faces.

Ordinarily, there is also such a custom in rural areas, that is, after the elderly are old enough to completely lose their labor force and cannot live independently, most of them are taken care of by several sons in turn.

A few months in this family, a few months in that family, each son went to live in the house for a period of time, taking turns to take care of them.

But Xu Chenghou is only sixty-five years old after the new year, and Zhou Guilan is only fifty-seven years old after the new year. It is still too early to be unable to live independently. Why are they selling the house at this time to take care of their son?

Xu Shixian glanced at his daughter-in-law, thinking that this matter is not easy to handle.

It's okay to say that my mother has a good temper, but my father's temper is too weird. If I go to his house, can I do it?

Besides, there are only three small run-down houses in his house, and it is not very spacious for a family of five. Parents have passed, where do they live?

Among the five brothers, apart from the most spacious of the third, the second is Xu Shi'an. His house in Sentie is not small and quite spacious.

The other three houses are all small houses, and the population is too large to live in.

But you can't say that.

The brothers looked at each other, Father, are you willing to give up such a spacious and big house at home? What a pity to sell it?

Otherwise, if our brothers give you some more pension funds, don't sell this house, right?

Xu Shixian felt that he would rather give the family some more money than take his parents to live there, otherwise, there would be no peace in the days to come.

Xu Chenghou glanced at his sons and snorted, I know, you guys don't have the intention to take us to the elderly.

The white-eyed wolves all dared not make a sound when they were told to let them retire in the old age, right?
