After talking for a while, Gu Zhao fell asleep on his wife’s shoulder. When he woke up, his father and Zhou Zhou were still sitting. He stood up and massaged Zhou Zhou’s shoulders, “Are you tired? Are you sore? Let me massage you.”

　　Li Zhouzhou was embarrassed and didn’t know where to look.

　　Dad is still here.

　　Li Da was busy eating melon seeds and peanuts. When his mouth was dry, he drank water. After drinking a pot of water, he went to the backyard to relieve himself.

　　Two more pieces of firewood were added.

　　The main room is warm.

　　Until the first cock crowed, the New Year’s Eve was over, and the new year had arrived. Gu Zhao was happy and wished a happy new year to his father and Zhou Zhou. Zhou Zhou asked his husband if he was hungry and wanted to eat. He went to make some dumplings, but Gu Zhao pulled his hand and said he was sleepy and just wanted to sleep.

　　Li Da waved his hand and said, “You two go to sleep for a while, there’s no rush to eat.” He had also eaten a lot of dry food all night and was not hungry.

　　On the first day of the New Year, you are not allowed to use knives or scissors, and you are not allowed to sweep the floor. The old people say that money will be swept away.

　　When you are hungry, make dumplings.

　　They could sleep for a while when they went back to their rooms. Gu Zhao pulled Zhou Zhou to stop working and went into the inner room and hugged his wife. He was almost half a head shorter than Zhou Zhou, so he simply bent his legs and pressed against his wife’s chest muscles, groaning, “Zhou Zhou, sleep with me, otherwise I can’t sleep.”

　　”The bed is so cold~”

　　Li Zhouzhou felt soft-hearted and kept saying, “Okay, I’ll sleep with my husband.”

　　But when I got to the kang, the position was wrong.

　　Gu Zhao was wearing that blue robe, with long hair flowing down, white skin, and eyes as bright as stars. He blinked and asked, “Zhou Zhou, do you want to take off my robe yourself?”

　　I’m not sleepy now.

　　Li Zhouzhou blushed, and his pretty husband lay down obediently and let him undress him——

　　Still solved it.

　　In the new year, the two of them finished what they hadn’t done last year. After sleeping all morning, it was already noon when Li Zhouzhou woke up. He was getting dressed, and his waist was still a little sore.

　　I made dumplings for lunch and ate them quickly, then took a nap on the kang in the afternoon.

　　The New Year is all about eating and drinking. It is a rare pleasant time in the countryside. Even Tian, ​​who is usually stingy, bad-tempered and noisy, has had a quiet yard these two days. It is rare to hear someone shouting “Niu Dan” loudly, and then there is no sound.

　　After the first day of the Chinese New Year, the second day is the day to go back to my parents’ home.

　　Tian from the Zhang family carried a basket with chickens, sugar, eggs, and meat, and the basket was uncovered. She walked along the way to show off the gifts she brought back to her parents’ home. Her husband Zhang Zhuzi was standing next to her, silent. Da Niu walked behind her with Niu Dan on his back. The family of four went to Datian Village.

　　Li Zhouzhou and his husband are also going back to his “parents’ home” today.

　　”Just a handful of malt sugar and dried fruits will do.” said Gu Zhao.

　　Li Zhouzhou still cares about his husband’s face, how can this be? Are you really not going to give me the meat?

　　”She has eaten our meat.” When Gu Zhao saw his wife hesitate, he immediately acted like a lazy sticky candy and pestered Zhou Zhou, saying, “Zhou Zhou, just listen to me~”

　　It’s not that Gu Zhao is stingy, but his stepmother Li Guihua is really greedy and will take advantage of every opportunity. The gift he brought back last time was expensive, and if it is an expensive gift again this time, Li Guihua will pester him, thinking that the Li family is rich, and will definitely think of ways to get things from the Li family.

　　No need to think of excuses. Li Guihua is about to give birth, so she has to give gifts, right?

　　After giving birth, you must not cry about being poor. Will your father-in-law help you?

　　For someone like Li Guihua, you have to know the limits and not give her too much. It’s okay if she misses a meal. After all, he gave her face when he returned home last time, so no one will gossip if you give her less this time.

　　Besides, Li Guihua took 18 taels of Gu Zhao’s “bride price”.

　　When she cried poor, no one in the village believed her and even laughed at her behind her back.

　　Finally, under Gu Zhao’s laziness and coquettishness, Li Zhouzhou listened to his husband and brought some dried goods, candied fruits and maltose. Feeling a little lacking, he also brought some pig offal.

　　”Is it okay, my husband?”

　　Gu Zhao was almost laughing to death, but said seriously, “Okay, my mother likes to eat offal anyway.”

　　Gu family in Dongping Village.

　　Li Guihua sat on the kang with a big belly. The room was warm and there were melon seeds and peanuts beside the kang. She was thinking that today was the day when Gu Zhao would come back to his parents’ home, and he would give her a piece of candy, a piece of meat and a jar of wine.
