When the eldest aunt heard Erya came back, she immediately grabbed two chickens and came over. It is a custom here that relatives such as uncles and aunts will catch a chicken and send it to make up for the body when the child is born. But in the past, the conditions were not good, and everyone gave eggs, but now most of the families are well-off and can afford chickens

The chicken was given to Tian Dalin, and the aunt went into the house to see Erya and the child. Looking at the child, she smiled and said to the second daughter: "You are a lucky one, a son and a daughter together are good."

Erya also felt lucky. Last month, the textile factory office forwarded the documents above and below. Starting next month, those who have children are not allowed to reproduce. I didn't investigate who was pregnant before, but if I got pregnant this month and gave birth, the factory will be fired the moment the baby is born. No matter how much you want to have children, you can only give up compared with work.

Li Guihua was quite critical, she said: "Erya is lucky, she gave birth to two, but in the future, Daya and Liuya will only have one child. One child in this family is too few."

Both Tian Shao and Liu Ya have jobs, so they must abide by the regulations of the country. As for Sanya's future, it's still uncertain, it depends on who they marry in the future.

The eldest aunt nodded and said, "One child is indeed too few in a family. Sankui will have at least two children after he gets married. Anyway, he doesn't eat in the public house, so he is not afraid of being fired."

In the concept of these older generations, they still feel that having many children and grandchildren is a blessing.

Speaking of this, Li Guihua asked with concern: "I heard from Da Kui's wife that someone introduced Er Kui to an elementary school teacher. Is it true?"

The aunt nodded and said, "It's true. The two of you met a few times and thought it was good. It's just that the other party has a job, and Er Kui has two children. According to the current policy, she can't have children. How can she not want this woman?" own child."

So this matter should be out of play.

Li Guihua nodded and said, "If that's the case, let them stop contacting each other, so as not to delay others. It's better to find someone who is unemployed or from the countryside, as long as you are diligent and generous."

The eldest aunt waved her hand and said, "I don't care about this matter with your eldest brother, let him make up his own mind. As long as he gets the money back every month to raise the child, he can find whatever he wants."

She is going to take care of the two children by herself, and even after Li Erkui gets married, she will watch over them, so that many conflicts can be avoided.

While talking, I heard Ma Xiaomei's voice: "Brother, sister-in-law..."

Li Guihua walked out after hearing the words. As soon as she went out, she saw Ma Xiaomei standing at the door, holding a basket in her left hand and an old hen in her right hand.

Ma Xiaomei smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, I heard that Er Ya was pregnant, so I caught a chicken and brought some eggs over."

After speaking, he walked forward and handed her everything.

When Tian Qiang's wife gave birth, Li Guihua also sent 20 eggs. So this time she was not polite and reached out to pick up the basket and the chicken.

When he came out of the house, he saw Dali's wife also coming with a chicken. Tian Erlin and Xu Zhaodi knew that they were not welcome to see each other, and now they would let the eldest daughter-in-law come forward for any human relations.

Later, the second uncle also sent a chicken, and then all the children from the same village who went to work in the garment factory sent things. If the days are ample or generous, grab a chicken or duck and send them, and if the days are tight, send 20 or 30 eggs.

In the evening, when Li Guihua was making milk powder for her child, she said to Erya, "Today we collected 16 chickens and 560 eggs. There should be someone delivering something tomorrow."

Erya was very surprised: "How come there are so many chickens, who sent them?"

Li Guihua casually mentioned five families, and then said: "Except for your uncle's family, the rest of the chickens are sent here because the family members get jobs. You are all thanks to your eldest sister."

Erya also admitted that her good life today is due to her eldest sister: "Mother, is it bad for us to collect so many things? Or, return everything except my relatives!"

She was afraid that Tian Shao would scold her if she found out.

Li Guihua gave her a blank look, and said, "This is her wish, so why refund it? I'll just send it back when they have a baby in the future."

But Li Guihua didn't accept all the chickens and eggs from everyone. For example, those whose families did not go to work in Yangcheng and did not have any relatives, they were determined not to accept them. As for the others, there is no psychological burden to accept it. This chicken and 20 or 30 eggs cost only a few dollars, which is incomparable with the money they send back every month.

Erya didn't object after hearing the words, but felt that it was time to write down the puppet of the person who gave the gift, after all, so many people tend to forget.

Li Guihua laughed and scolded: "I told your father to remember! You, don't worry about it. Also, there are so many eggs that can't be eaten for a while and are easy to break. I will ask Suo Zhu to sell them tomorrow. The chickens will not Sell ​​it, and kill it for you to eat every other day."

Erya has no opinion.

In the evening, Tian Dalin and Li Guihua said, "Don't do the child's three baptisms and the full moon banquet."

"Why don't you do it again?"

Tian Dalin said: "Think about it, do we need to accept gifts when we hold the Sanshi and full moon banquets? If we accept gifts, will they say that we take the opportunity to make money. If we don't receive much money, why bother with such a bad reputation? .”

Upon hearing this, Li Guihua immediately said: "Then invite relatives and friends to have a meal at home, and no gifts or things will be accepted."

Tian Dalin looked at her in surprise, nodded in agreement, and said, "Don't do it, it's not fashionable here. Besides, Da Ya and Xiao Yue are coming back soon, and the county has to be cleaned up!" "

"Okay, then we will have a full moon banquet instead of three baptisms."

On the second day, Aunt Li also caught two chickens and brought over 60 eggs, and returned 20 yuan. Li Guihua accepted the chicken and eggs, but she didn't want the money.

Aunt Li sat down and said beamingly that the family was going to build a house in October.

Aunt Li said: "There are so many people in the family who can't live anymore, but they used to have no money and had to squeeze. In the past six months, Mugen and Grassroots have sent money back every month, so your brother-in-law wants to build six green houses like elder brother and the others. Brick house."

Li Guihua wiped the water from her hands on her bib, and asked, "The six green brick and large tile houses in the elder brother's house belong to Dakui. If you don't have a separate family, it means that all three sons will share. When the house is built, what should we do?" To live in a new house, who should live in an old house?"

Aunt Li didn't think about it at all.

As someone who has experienced it, Li Guihua persuaded: "We still need to consult the grassroots for their opinions on building a house, and then decide to build a house like this. Otherwise, once you build this house, no matter who you let live in the new house, the people who stay will be in the heart." There will be complaints."

Most of the money for building the house was earned by two people, Mugen and Grassroots. Fortunately, Mu Gen is married and has children, but Cao Gen has not married a wife yet. If he spends all his money in the public office, he will definitely have a problem if he can't afford the money when he gets married. So, it's better to discuss it.

Aunt Li felt that this made sense, and nodded in agreement.

In the last two days, the monthly ticket is collected, the monthly ticket is collected
