Chapter 672: Preparing for Eldest's wedding
After hearing her daughter's words, Eldest Sister-in-law was relieved. Then she merrily spoke: "Your mother-in-law called me before and asked me and your father to attend Da Wa and your youngest sister-in-law's wedding this year."
"Then you and Father come over. Bring Yang Yang and Wang Wang with you. Fourth Aunt's side is very spacious. You can live there when you come." Zhou Si Ni told.
"I told your father. Your father said we will see when the time comes." Eldest Sister-in-law smilingly replied.
"What is there to think? Let Eldest Brother-in-law stay at home when the time comes and there will be no problem. How much better it is to spend New Year here? It's not like there's no space. We also have a room here." Zhou Si Ni persuaded.
She and Weng Guo Dong had a two-bedroom house with one living room, so they could fit.
"Alright. I will go with your father then and look at you too." Eldest Sister-in-law jollily said.
The mother and daughter talked for a while before hanging up.
Time went fast, especially at the end of the year. Tickets weren't easy to buy. If they decided to go, they must buy tickets in advance.
Eldest Sister-in-law couple and their two sons were planning to go there when the time come. She dropped by Zhou Da Ni's side.
She asked Zhou Da Ni if she? want to go there together?
Zhou Da Ni pondered a little bit. Her two younger sisters were married to the capital. While she hadn't been to the capital yet.
Da Wa getting married created a rare opportunity. She really wanted to go there and look around.
"You can go if you want. I can watch the matter at home." Her man said to her.
If Zhou Da Ni want to go with her, no one will watch Eldest Sister-in-law's house. So she went over and ask Second Brother.
Second Brother didn't think about going there. He planned to give some gift money when the time come. Eldest Sister-in-law requested to go through the trouble of watching the house then.
Second Brother agreed and told her and his eldest brother to go to the capital without worry. He would take care of their home.
Eldest Sister-in-law also informed Third Brother and the others. Third Sister-in-law planned to go there. Third Brother will stay with the children to watch the shop.
Third Brother Lin was informed by Third Brother.
Third Brother Lin was really busy now.
Because he owned two shops. He drove the truck out to buy and ship goods every day. However, it was his third sister's eldest son who was getting married. So he wanted to attend.
Moreover, his wife was a capable person. She can uphold the family. He just needed to prepare more goods in advance.
He'll let his wife look after the shop. He planned to go with Eldest Brother and the others.
Zhou Xia, who was in the county city, naturally received the news.
Second Sister-in-law was currently there. She was helping with the clothes-washing and the cooking.
After Third Brother came here, he returned after telling them. Second Sister-in-law sneered, "What is there to go? When you got married, not one of them came back."
"Mother, they didn't have time when I got married. Isn't it normal that they didn't come back?" Zhou Xia said. Though they didn't personally come back, they did gave a lot of gift money.
"This is a relative from the capital's side. Let Zhou Xia socialize with them more. Do you want to break the relationship between the two families?" Ma Miao Miao directly reprimanded.
In the past, Ma Miao Miao didn't know that fourth branch's Uncle and Aunt were in the capital city. Later she found out nd her attitude naturally changed.
Her family was in the county city. It wasn't a lie that they were city folk too. But they were from the big city. How can she compare with others' arrogance?
Though Ma Miao Miao was in awe of fourth branch's uncle and aunt, she put her mother-in-law in her eyes.
Second Sister-in-law said weakly: "Miao Miao, you don't know. They won't pull up our family at all. They have always looked down on our family."
"Mother, you're talking nonsense again. How is Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt looking down on our family?" Zhou Xia frowned.
At the beginning he was able to enter the furniture factory as an apprentice and can hold this job now was because of his fourth uncle establishing the connection. It was said that he gifted a full two jins of fatty meat.
Nowadays, it wasn't so rare. One can buy it if they have money. Still, two jins of fatty meat was rare back then? Even when one had money, they may not necessarily be able to get it!
His fourth uncle used it to establish a connection for him and had never mentioned it to his parents or him. He didn't know until later when his father-in-law brought it up.
This was his mother's so called looking down on his family?
And his elder sister, Zhou San Ni.
Now she lived with his brother-in-law and nephew in the capital. It was Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt who brought them to live there.
Was this also Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt looking down on his family? Zhou Xia didn't understood how his mother thought this.
Ma Miao Miao also looked at her mother-in-law.
Second Sister-in-law said: "It's not like you didn't know what happened back then. Your second sister ran to the capital by herself. At that time, she was so young and finally reached there. Your fourth aunt simply got Da Wa to bring her back overnight. Won't let her spend a night there!"
Until now, she would still get mad when she thought about this incident. She really didn't leave her any face.
Can someone do this? At that time Er Ni and Xu Sheng Mei were taken there, but Liu Ni was sent back once she went over. This was simply the same as slapping her!
Zhou Liu Ni was older than Zhou Xia, so was his second elder sister.
Zhou Xia didn't even bother to continue to talk when he heard his mother was still thinking about this.
Ma Miao Miao had a big feud with Zhou Liu Ni. Her first child was gone because of Zhou Liu Ni's push.
She knows what kind of personality Zhou Liu Ni have. So she straightforwardly stated: "Since you like that that daughter of yours, go and live with her. Don't come to my house and be an eyesore. Hearing about her, I feel annoyed!"
It went without saying that Second Sister-in-law was reluctant to leave. How nice were the days in the city? When she went back to the village, she would have more face. How could she be willing to go back?
"Then Xia Xia, do you plan to go there?" Second Sister-in-law changed the topic.
"I want to go too. I haven't been to the capital yet." Ma Miao Miao said to Zhou Xia.
Zhou Xia nodded. He was on vacation during that time. so it was a good idea to go there together.
As for the child, they won't take child along. The journey to and back was troublesome, so better the child to Second Sister-in-law.
Like this, the quota was confirmed. Eldest Brother's family, Third Sister-in-law, Third Brother Lin, Hu Zi and Gang Zi's mother: Second Sister, and Zhou Xia couple.
After the quota came out, Third Sister-in-law called Lin Qing He.
Lin Qing He was delighted and smiled: "I'll reimburse your travel expense. I will also reimburse for all the food and clothing expenses during your stay in the capital. Just come."
Third Sister-in-law merrily responded: "With so many of us going over, there won't be enough space to live if was a smaller house."
She and Third Brother will stay for two days. They explore around. That big property was almost the same style as the ones that old feudal landlord live in. There were so many rooms and was so spacious.
"It's specially reserved for you! If you have time, you can come here whenever you want to play." Lin Qing He said.
After hanging up the phone, the soon-to-be-mother-in-law, Lin Qing He started making preparations.
