Rebirth of Fortune Talisman

Chapter 254 Arrival
Waking up early the next day, the entire Shen family started to get busy again.

Kill chickens, buy meat, buy fish, and prepare food and drink.

They didn't know when Zhu Xue's mother and daughter would come, but today should be about the same. Even if they didn't come today, they would definitely come tomorrow.

You can't just start packing up the food when people arrive, you should prepare first and not be in a hurry when the time comes.

Now the weather is getting colder every day, and things are easy to store. Chicken, duck, fish and meat will not spoil at all if they are stored for a day or two.

Shen Lin also went to the village to exchange some dried vegetables saved by other people's homes, such as fungus and mushrooms, and the three sisters Shen Mei also took things that could be used at home.

Qian Guifang got up early in the morning and started chopping stuffing and vegetables for croquettes.

After the meatballs were fried, Qian Guifang went to the pigsty to feed the pigs. Seeing that the pigs in the pen were full of fat, she discussed with Shen Lin about killing a pig.

Shen Linxian happened to pass by, and she was taken aback when she heard it: "Grandma, Grandma Zhu doesn't have such a big appetite, she can't eat a pig."

These words made Qian Guifang amused: "When you kill a pig, our family eats it. It's a happy thing for your grandma and your fourth aunt to come back. Let's have a good time. In the countryside, pig killing is the most lively and lively place." It's a grand matter, killing a pig is a sign of welcome to your mother."

Qian Guifang pointed at the pigs in the pigsty again: "Besides, our family feeds several pigs. We kill one now, and another during the Chinese New Year, and sell the rest for money."

Seeing that Shen Linxian didn't speak, Qian Guifang said again: "Besides, if your grandma came back, don't the people in our village know that your grandma came back from the United States. I don't know how many people are jealous of our family. The old man doesn't know what to say, so why don't we put on airs first, and kill the pig to invite the people in the village to have a meal, which can be considered as a face for your mother."

What Qian Guifang said made sense, but Shen Linxian couldn't refute it.

She smiled: "Grandma, you are the master, you are the pillar of our family, you are right."

Qian Guifang said so, and no one else had any objections, so the matter of killing pigs was settled.

In the afternoon, the house was thoroughly cleaned several times, the bed was replaced with a new one, the bed in Shen Linxian's house was replaced with a big double bed, and the bedding was also replaced with new ones. This is for Zhu Xue.

Because Shen Linxian didn't have enough room at home, she planned to stay at Lao Wangtou's place at night. Anyway, she was traveling fast, so she went back at night and returned in the morning without any delay.

In addition, the three brothers Shen Weiguo squeezed into one room, leaving two rooms for Zhu Lan and the entourage that Zhu Xue might bring.

Fearing that the room was not enough, Qian Guifang asked Shen Lin to tidy up the wing room. The single bed replaced by the family was put inside, and two old tables were found to put on it. Make up in the wing room.

After the whole family was tidied up, the three brothers Zhu Weiguo came back by bicycle.

They took two days off to welcome Zhu Xue and his party at home.

This day's breakfast and lunch, the family didn't bother to make good food, they just ate a mouthful, and now that Brother Weiguo is back, Qian Guifang didn't feel like cooking any more, so she ordered Ji Qin to cook a pot of potato stew meat, steamed a pot of steamed buns, and boiled thick millet porridge.

It was getting dark, and Zhu Xue and the others were still gone.

Seeing that she couldn't wait any longer, Qian Guifang asked her family to eat first.

After eating, there was no one until after ten o'clock. Thinking about it, I must not be able to come today.

Shen Linxian went directly to Old Wangtou's place to sleep, practiced all night, got up at five or six o'clock in the morning and trotted down the mountain.

When I got home, I saw that everyone in the family was up, and the three sisters Shen Mei, all adults and children from the same family, had arrived, all of them were wearing new clothes, neatly dressed, with a smile on their faces, and it seemed obvious when they looked at them. Spirit.

Qian Guifang wore the woolen sweater Zhu Lan gave her, a maroon embroidered Tang suit over her head, black trousers, black leather shoes, and her white hair was combed neatly.

Shen Lin and Ji Qin also got dressed up. Shen Lin was wearing a silver-gray suit, with spotlessly polished leather shoes, and his hair was parted and combed, looking very stylish.

Ji Qin was wearing a black sweater, black trousers, and a long woolen red coat over her head. Her hair was tied behind her head and fixed with a silver headdress. This attire was like a fashion in the city. Girl, she doesn't look like a peasant woman in the countryside at all.

Shen Linxian looked at his family's attire, then at the sportswear he was wearing, and hurried back to his room to change.

The white pullover, plaid skirt, and beige slim windbreaker made Shen Linxian look mature for several years.

The whole family, wearing expensive and new clothes that they couldn't wear in the past years, just sat around the house and waited. The courtyard door had already been opened, waiting for Zhu Xue's arrival.

No one spoke, but everyone was very anxious.

When it was almost seven o'clock, Ji Qin got up and said, "Mom, let me cook."

Qian Guifang waved her hand: "It doesn't matter, just sit down, if you get dirty from cooking, wait a little longer."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a commotion from outside, and then, several children from the same village ran in laughing: "Grandma Shen, you have a distinguished guest at your house, and you drove a big car, so majestic... "

Qian Guifang couldn't sit still anymore, she stood up abruptly, and said to Shen Weiguo, "Hurry up, hurry up and have a look."

It was early in the morning, and it was winter again, and it was freezing cold. It was the winter time for rural people. People in the village were tired for more than half a year. In winter, almost every household would not get up early. They all wanted to be comfortable. Sleep late for two days.

But just this morning, some elderly people were already up, some were cooking, and when the whole village was quiet, the arrival of a few cars completely broke the peace of Shanghe Village.

At the entrance of the village, three black cars lined up on the dirt road in the village, followed by a van. These four cars attracted children from the entire Shanghe Village to come and watch.

People near the entrance of the village didn't bother to cook, and all ran out to watch the excitement.

The car entered the village, and a tall and strong man in a black suit got out of the second car. When he got out of the car, he asked the people in the village in Mandarin: "Where is Shen Lin's house?"

"Is this for Shen Lin?"

People in the village began to talk about it, and someone else pointed out the way for the man: "Follow this road, turn east at the end..."

The man thanked him, and the car continued to drive slowly after getting in the car.

"Who is this?" Several women in the village chattered.

"Who knows?" Some people looked dismissive, but they were extremely jealous in their hearts.

Someone pouted: "Shen Lin's family has been very busy these two days, cleaning, making new bedding, and buying chicken, duck and fish yesterday. His three older sisters also come here every day. There must be something to do."

The busy woman whispered, "Let's go and have a look."
