Chapter 217 - The Villagers Came to Visit

If the other party harbored too much malice toward him and it was for no reason, and the other party’s thoughts and personality were too vicious, he would determine if the other party should be punished.

He would ignore the question of whether the other party was an adult or a child.

Therefore, this also reflected that apart from being unable to differentiate between right and wrong, Li Chu Tou’s thoughts and personality were purely more vicious when he saw the eldest son.

Ye Lulu was right.

This was the version of a child who was about to become an evil person.

…

Ye Lulu still did not know how her three babies were not to be trifled with.

It was soon the New Year.

Originally, Ye Lulu planned to prepare hotpot on New Year’s Eve. However, she later learned about the customs of the Shang dynasty. There were specific dishes to be made during New Year’s Eve. For example, an entire fish to symbolize prosperity throughout the year, a whole chicken to symbolize completeness, and so on.

There were specific customs.

Therefore, her hotpot was put on hold. After New Year’s Eve, the village was very lively on the morning of the first day of the new year. The snow couldn’t stop the villagers from leaving their houses.

On the first day of the new year in Yuan City, everyone was used to going out to pay their New Year greetings. It was not to visit only relatives, but any family they knew.

Therefore, it was usually the most bustling on the first day of the new year. Every family rushed out their doors and randomly visited other houses happily.

Yunwu Village was no exception. When Ye Lulu woke up early in the morning, she could already hear a lot of noise. All the villagers rushed to different families to pay their New Year greetings. Some families also went to the Guan family to pay their New Year greetings.

Usually, in a family, some people would go out for visitings, while others would stay at home and wait for others to visit.

Since Ye Lulu had to take care of the three babies, she had to stay in the Guan family and was destined not to be able to join in on the fun.

It was unknown if the Guan family had changed too much this year. The villagers were curious and wanted to come over to pry. Therefore, there were many people who came one after another, causing everyone from the Guan family to stay. All of them stayed at home to receive the villagers.

Of course, everyone was poor. When other people came to visit today, they did not need to serve any sweets or melon seeds.

In other words, it was a meaningful visit.

There were indeed a lot of people who visited. Listening to the sounds in the house, Ye Lulu felt that at least eighty percent of the villagers had been here.

She had an excuse not to go to the main house, but there were also people who wanted to see the babies and would especially enter her house.

According to the customs, it was not convenient for Ye Lulu to reject them. However, she invited Mother Rong over to suppress them in case some people did not know about health and hygiene and insisted on coming over to kiss or touch the babies. Ye Lulu, who knew about bacteria, could not accept this.

Furthermore, she was afraid that some people would be foolish and it would be inappropriate for Ye Lulu to argue with them. Therefore, she invited Mother Rong over and the others stayed outside to deal with the other villagers.

Most of the people who came were happy. Although they did not know what to think in their hearts, it was the first day of the new year and they were from other families. Everyone had smiles on their faces and was kind.

“From the looks of it, the Guan family just woke up?” However, there were also people who did not like Ye Lulu and specially came to see how she was doing. Then, they picked on her. “Tsk, how impressive. You can soar to the sky after giving birth to three boys. What time is it? You’re only up now. Even the laziest pig in our family woke up earlier than you.”

The person who spoke was a black-faced daughter-in-law. She was used to keeping her eyes down, but she was not a kind person. She spoke without caring about the time or occasion and did not show mercy.
