Reborn before her mother committed suicide, the heroine went crazy

Chapter 221 Returning to her parents’ home on the second day of the new year

The second day of the Lunar New Year is the day when married daughters return to their parents' home. The gifts they need to bring have been prepared before the New Year. In previous years, Feng Xiangmei would prepare a basket for each of her brothers. The basket contained a two-pound fruit box and some fried dough sticks. However, the five brothers of the Feng family would not keep all of these things. Basically, they would keep one pound of fruit box and take the rest back to them.

However, what Feng Xiangmei prepared this year was different from previous years. She did not use reusable baskets to hold things, but disposable bags. Although the amount of things she packed might not be as much as before, the Feng brothers did not have to bring the things back to them.

In a bag were placed four apples, two pounds of malted milk and two pounds of the indispensable fruit box. As for the fried dough sticks that were used to hold the place before, they were not brought at all this time.

This is because Wan An Ning did not let Feng Xiangmei fry the dough sticks.

Wan An Ning has a bit of psychological trauma when it comes to fried dough sticks. She remembers the fried dough sticks she used to eat during the Chinese New Year when she was a child. They were kept from the beginning of the year until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The dough sticks were so hard that they could not be chewed at all and could only be eaten by soaking them in water. But for them, this was also a rare delicacy.

With so many things and four people, including a mother and two daughters, one bicycle definitely would not be enough. Wan An Ning originally planned to pull a cart, but just as they were about to leave, Su Ruyi drove over on a tractor.

Seeing Wan An Ning and the others loading their things onto their bicycles, he smiled and said, "I forgot to come here to tell you yesterday. Today I was sending you to visit your relatives. When I was getting ready to come, my sister-in-law asked me to send them off. Luckily I didn't come late. If I had been a little later, you would have been gone."

Although Wan An Ning had emphasized to her that there was no romantic relationship between him and Su Ruyi, Feng Xiangmei still felt that he was a good candidate for a son-in-law when she saw that Su Ruyi took their family affairs so seriously.

Seeing that Wan An Ning didn't seem moved at all, Feng Xiangmei sighed with some regret.

"It's Chinese New Year, and you guys have to visit relatives too, so I don't think I need to bother you."

"Aunt, why are you being so polite to me? Others may not know, but you, aunt, don't know? This tractor is just named after me. Everyone among us knows that it was bought by Sister An Ning. Isn't it only natural for you to use your own tractor?"

Feng Xiangmei smiled and said, "Oh, you are so thoughtful. I won't be polite to you. I am sorry to bother you today."

Su Ruyi helped Wan An Ning move all the things on the cart onto the tractor, and then spread some wheat straw and quilts on the tractor, and let Wan An Ning and her mother and daughter sit on it, then started the tractor and took them to the Dragon King Tower.

When they arrived at Longwang Tower, they naturally went to where Feng Huaizhong and his wife lived first, rested at Feng Huaizhong's house, and then delivered the things to Wan An Ning's five uncles' homes.

This is what they did in previous years, so Feng Xiangmei naturally planned to do the same this year.

But when she arrived at Feng Huaizhong's house, she was stunned.

Hearing the sound of the tractor, everyone waiting at Feng Huaizhong's house stretched their necks to look outside, and then they saw Su Ruyi driving the tractor.

"It's Xiao Su, so the people sitting in the back must be Xiangmei and An'an..."

Yao Jinhua smiled and stood up to greet them, followed closely by Wu Jiezi, and then Wang Ximei...

The tractor stopped steadily. Feng Xiangmei stood up holding the edge of the vehicle and patted her calf which was numb from sitting. When she saw Yao Jinhua and others, she could not help but be stunned: "Sister-in-law, Fifth Sister-in-law, and Ximei... Why are you here?"

Yao Jinhua reached out her hand to support Feng Xiangmei, and Wu Jinzi also hurried forward to support Feng Xiangmei's other hand.

"I thought you guys should be here by now, and you're here now. You must be freezing, come down quickly and warm up in the house."

Wan An Ning jumped off the tractor and picked up Wan Anping.

Feng Xiangmei had already been supported into the house by her eldest and fifth aunts, one on each side.

Wan An Ning turned around and prepared to move things from the tractor, but before she could reach out to the tractor, suddenly several big hands took the things off the tractor.

Su Ruyi saw the people moving things and couldn't help but said happily: "Brother Zhanpeng, Brother Qianyang, why are you all here?"

Feng Zhanpeng smiled but said nothing. Feng Qianyang smiled and said, "We knew you were coming today, so all the brothers came. We built a fire behind the kitchen, and Brother Jinku is the chef today..."

Wan An Ning raised her eyebrows. In all the years since her family came to visit relatives, they had never been treated like this!

But thinking about it, she realized that things are indeed different now than before. Although she lamented the reality of life, it was also human nature, and she soon felt relieved.

When we entered the house, grandpa and grandma were both dressed in new clothes. Grandpa's eyes narrowed as he smiled, revealing his dentures that he had brushed very white.

Seeing Wan An Ning coming in, he couldn't help but hold her hand tightly.

"An An, you guys are here. You know, grandpa is very happy today!"

As he spoke, he raised his chin, and his snow-white goatee twitched up and down, indicating that he was in a very uneasy mood at the moment.

Before the New Year, the eldest son's wife came to them and told them that after the New Year, Xiangmei's family would go to City Z, and it would be difficult for them to come back in the future, so they discussed and decided that when Xiangmei came back on the second day of the New Year, the whole family would have a reunion dinner together at his place.

Feng Huaizhong naturally agreed with this proposal.

How long has it been since you had a meal with so many children and grandchildren?

So long that he couldn't remember how long it had been!

It seems that ever since the eldest brother got married and moved out, they have basically not had a real reunion dinner.

He always thought that if he wanted his children to have a reunion dinner again, it would be at his and his wife's funeral!

Now that there is a chance, before he closes his eyes, the family will have one more reunion dinner. Feng Huaizhong thinks that even if he dies the next day, he will have no regrets.

So when Feng Huaizhong heard Yao Jinhua's proposal, he was overjoyed and agreed without any hesitation.

"Okay, let's do this. If you need anything, you guys can do the math and I'll pay!"

Yao Jinhua smiled and said, "Dad, what are you talking about? I won't need your money anyway. Don't worry, you and mom don't have to worry about anything. Just rest well in the house, and leave the rest to us young people."

Feng Huaizhong did not be polite to Yao Jinhua. Although he did not say it, he knew in his heart that the reason why Yao Jinhua and the others were so attentive was definitely because Wan An Ning had set up a furniture factory in the village.

In that case, he might as well give them a chance to show their affection.
