286 Grandpa and Grandma Secretly Eating Chili Strips!

Before the opening of the market at the beginning of the year, the villagers usually did not work. They would visit their relatives and friends and drink with their neighbors!

The so-called opening of the market was the first bazaar of the new year.

Shahe Town’s Open House Day was on the eighth day of the first month of the Lunar New Year.

Therefore, before the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, every household was very lively.

!!

Family and friends had arranged to visit one another’s place.

The Shi family had many relatives and had to visit several families every day.

The brothers also arranged to visit the maternal homes of their wives.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, it was the day when women returned to their parents’ homes.

Early in the morning, the three aunts and three daughters-in-law put on light makeup, wore beautiful clothes and shoes, and decked themselves in expensive and beautiful jewelry that they usually couldn’t bear to part with. Then, they brought their husbands and children back to their parents’ homes.

Well, the unmarried man would follow his mother back to his mother’s house.

The married man followed his wife to his father-in-law’s house.

Eldest Aunt looked at Gu Qingming and said, “Mingming, why don’t you come with me to my family?”

However, Grandma Shi stopped her. “Eldest Daughter-in-law, Mingming should stay at home for the time being. She’s pregnant. There are many people in your maternal family now and there are many children. We don’t want them bumping into her.”

Her eldest daughter-in-law was a good person, but her family was a little troubled.

She had many sisters, but not all of them were united. The strangest thing was that her parents kept thinking about getting these daughters to subsidize their family to buy a house and help their youngest son marry.

Among these sisters, her eldest daughter-in-law was the one who had married well.

Therefore, her parents always wanted their daughter to bring the money back to her family.

Fortunately, her eldest daughter-in-law was a sensible woman. At the same time, she could suppress her strange parents.

However, those sisters also competed with each other. Moreover, at their age, they had many descendants.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, many people brought their children back to their parents’ houses.

Not all families were as open-minded as the Shi family.

In many cases, when the mothers-in-law went back to their parents’ hometowns, their sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren had to go back with them. Otherwise, they would feel embarrassed.

The more people there were, the more incidents there were.

The others also invited Gu Qingming to their maiden home, but they were all rejected by her grandmother.

“Ming’er is not familiar with those maternal families. She would not feel at ease even if she went.”

Grandma Shi hurriedly urged, “Hurry up and leave. If you don’t leave now, it’ll be lunchtime!”

“Alright then. We’re leaving!” The daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law bade farewell to their grandmother.

After the family went their separate ways, the Shi family fell silent.

Only her grandmother, grandfather, and Gu Qingming were left in the Shi family.

Of course, her grandmother also had a maiden family.

However, her parents had already passed away, and her eldest brother and sister-in-law were no longer around. She still had nephews and nieces.

After the first two generations, they were no longer close.

Although those nephews and nieces were also very close to her maternal grandmother’s family, this kind of closeness was a kind of utilitarian relationship.

Seeing that their family was rich and had good networks, they would maintain a good relationship with them.

Every New Year, Grandma Shi’s nephew and grandnephew would send some gifts over.

Of course, Grandma Shi would definitely return the favor.

However, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, the elders were no longer around, and Grandma Shi was not going back on this day. Usually, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, she would bring the children back.

Of course, she still had a daughter — Gu Qingming’s mother.

However, this daughter had to follow the Gu family to worship their ancestors every year on the second day of the New Year.

However, they were very happy that the Gu family was celebrating the new year with the Shi family.

Grandma Shi looked at the suddenly quiet house and was a little excited. She said, “The house can finally be quiet. The sun is just right today, so we’ll sunbathe in the courtyard. I don’t know how satisfying it will be.”

Gu Qingming was speechless.

So this was the reason why her grandmother was so excited.

At this moment, Grandpa Shi was lying on a rocking chair with a small tea table in front of him. When he reached a cup of tea, he smiled and said, “We can only enjoy this quiet moment on the second day of the New Year every year!”

It was only at this moment that they felt free.

No one fought with them for the TV remote control. No one stopped him from drinking. In any case, he just felt very comfortable.

However, this year, they seemed to have forgotten…

Gu Qingming watched as her grandfather basked in the sun and ate spicy sticks.

Moreover, not only was Grandpa Shi eating, but Grandma Shi was also eating. As she ate, she even commented, “It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten spicy strips. I miss this taste. It’s fragrant, spicy, and numbing!” Grandma Shi said as she pinched a preserved bamboo spicy strip.

Grandpa Shi said, “No matter what, the spicy strips here are still the best!”

Gu Qingming was speechless.

It turned out that her grandparents actually liked this kind of thing!

They even hid it secretly and took it out to eat when the aunts and sister-sin-law were not at home.

She watched as they ate one after another.

...

Gu Qingming had no choice but to say, “Grandpa, Grandma, you’ve already eaten a lot. You can eat, but you can’t eat too much. Otherwise, your stomach won’t be able to take it!”

Their physical fitness had improved significantly. They looked 10 to 20 years younger than their peers.

However, no matter how good one’s body was, it could not withstand something like spicy sticks, especially things bought outside. There was no guarantee of hygiene and safety. What if one ate something bad?

Well, it didn’t seem like such a problem would happen again.

After all, the spiritual spring water could cure all illnesses and poisons!

Therefore, Gu Qingming did not stop them when she saw them eating!

However, it was not good to eat too much.

The couple, who were eating spicy sticks, were speechless.

They had actually forgotten that there was a little ancestor at home.

Oh no, they didn’t look like elders at all. Their precious granddaughter had seen them.

The old couple looked at each other. They didn’t know whether to continue eating the spicy strips or not.

...

They adhered to the principle of not wasting anything and ate the spicy sticks in their mouth and hands.

Grandpa Shi smiled and said, “Mingming, your grandmother and I only like this. You won’t stop us or tell your eldest uncle and the others, right?”

Gu Qingming smiled and said, “No! But Grandpa, Grandma, this thing was bought outside. It’s not hygienic. It’s better to eat less! After all, you’re old. It’s not good to eat too much junk food that’s difficult to digest.”

“Yes, yes, let’s eat less, let’s eat less!” The elderly couple, whose combined age added to almost 150 years old, nodded like children. They glanced at the half bag of spicy sticks on the small tea table and said with a smile, “Let’s eat this bag. We won’t eat anymore after that, okay?”

Gu Qingming was speechless.

She did not nod or shake her head. She only smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll eat with you guys. It smells very fragrant. It should be delicious!”

Hearing that Gu Qingming wanted to eat, Grandma Shi took the half bag of spicy strips from the table and threw them into the trash can without a word.

Then, she said loudly, “We’re not eating anymore!”

Grandpa Shi was speechless.

Gu Qingming was speechless.
