107 A pair of old bachelors(1/2)
The world is not crazy, and neither are these two old guys.
The kids went crazy.
In my memory, after kowtowing to my grandparents, I would share the candy. I didn’t expect that this year we wouldn’t share the candy.
Grab candy.
How exciting.
The ones that couldn't be snatched the most, the twins Xiaoni from the third uncle's house, each got a lot.
Of course, one handful holds a piece of candy.
But this does not prevent the two five-year-old Xiaoni - oh, it is another year, six years old - from knowing that money is a good thing.
Because when the brothers and sisters heard about the distribution of lucky money, they all jumped and screamed crazily.
Then the twins also jumped and screamed excitedly.
Grandpa’s highlight moment began when he took out a five-yuan ticket and shook it loudly in his hand.
The first one to receive the new year's money was, of course, Grandpa's precious grandson, Cang La.
The eldest grandson received the New Year's money and was obviously very happy. He knelt down and kowtowed to his grandfather again to pay New Year greetings.
He also said some auspicious words such as wishing grandpa good health, all the best, happiness like the East China Sea, and longevity as long as the Nanshan Mountains.
But Grandpa was very happy. What the eldest grandson said was really pleasing to the ear.
The uncles and aunts laughed and talked about it. In previous years, they didn't divide the New Year's money, and there were no such auspicious words. People would say it when they looked at the money.
The next grandchildren are not as good at talking as the eldest brother, but grandpa is happy and just kowtows to say New Year and he is happy, and he slowly learns auspicious words.
The only exception was Yingzi, who suddenly learned the eldest brother's words after only listening to them once.
Grandpa was extremely happy.
The look in her granddaughter's eyes was even more meaningful.
Grandpa was greatly satisfied, and then it was finally Grandma's turn who had been impatient for a long time.
The eldest grandson concocted an auspicious speech in the same way, which even made grandma so happy that she couldn't even see her.
Other grandchildren will still kowtow and say, "Grandma, have a great New Year."
The only exception was Yingzi, whose auspicious words came out extremely smoothly.
Grandma was so happy that she had to let her granddaughter get on the kang and said she wanted to hug my Yingzi.
Finally, all thirteen grandchildren paid their New Year's greetings, and each received a huge amount of two five yuan as New Year's money.
Next, there is the performance of the three daughters-in-law.
It’s not a performance to wish my parents-in-law a happy New Year, but——
Block the door to prevent children from escaping.
There was a flurry of excitement in the room.
The three mothers used coercion and coercion to coax their children into giving them money.
To put it in a nice name, I will save it for you first.
Where it went, only God knows.
The fourth child tried to escape but was caught by his foresight mother.
Mikura was wiser, and voluntarily surrendered and handed over his New Year's money, hoping to be treated leniently, and discussed with his mother in a low voice whether he could get 50 cents in advance?
Mother agreed vaguely.
The eldest son also handed over his New Year's money to his mother.
His mother was still polite to him: "You can just keep it by yourself, I'm afraid they will lose it accidentally."
But the boss didn't want to do anything special, so he handed it over in full, and he said that he asked his mother to keep it for him.
The mother expressed great satisfaction.
In fact, on the night when the eldest grandson gave the money to his grandfather, he only explained to his grandfather how to keep his mother happy.
I didn’t say how to avoid causing pain to my parents.
Assuming that no matter how much money he sent, he handed it all to his mother, it must have been a huge surprise to her at that time.
But surprises only happen for a while.
Not only will the surprise not last, but it will also whet the mother's appetite after the surprise.
I must be wondering all day long whether the boss earns more?
If the surprise cannot last, there will be a little disappointment.
The most important thing is that after handing the money to my mother and then asking her for two hundred to give to my grandfather, my mother will definitely not be able to refuse.
But it is impossible not to feel distressed when spending such a huge sum of money.
You must know that the cost of building three tile-roofed houses is only 600 yuan.
My four brothers are currently guarding three adobe houses.
Two hundred yuan is exactly the value of a tile-roofed house.
Then on the fifth day of the year, new year's money is distributed, and each child gets a total of ten yuan. When the children are happy, the mother knows the source of the money.
It's definitely more painful than cutting off flesh.
But hiding it from her.
Doesn't this make me very happy?
For the same amount of money, the same filial piety to grandparents, but in different ways, the results are vastly different.
After paying New Year greetings to grandparents, the climax of the New Year has arrived - going out to pay New Year greetings.
The eldest brother took his younger brothers, everyone was beating with excitement, went out happily, and began to pay New Year's greetings to close relatives in the clan.
Girls are not qualified to follow, they have to make their own wave.
It's only about five or six o'clock in the morning, and it's still early.
The dark street was already full of people, bustling with children paying New Year greetings.
Fortunately, the sound of the bundled firecrackers continues, and these days there are mostly electric cannons, which flash and flash, making bright lights appear on the street from time to time.
There were also many people with flashlights.
There are also people who throw firecrackers while walking.
This area is full of people with the surname Liang. The children are all familiar with each other and whose family they should go to.
Instead of going door-to-door to say New Year greetings, we start with the oldest and senior grandfather.
Then in order, it’s the grandparents’ generation, the uncle’s generation...
When I came back from this round of worship, it was already dawn.
The second uncle, the third uncle and Lao Wai continued to drink with the grandparents, and at the same time accepted the New Year greetings from the children one after another.
Now that my children are back, it marks the end of their New Year greetings.
It's their turn.
The second uncle and the third uncle took Lao Wai, a fake and shoddy member of the clan, and the three of them started to go out to pay New Year greetings to their elders.
Lao Wai walked at the end, crooked and crooked, from physical to psychological, naturally wretched.
When the men came back in a circle, it was already half past noon.
Next it was the girls' turn to appear.
Okura Niang and her two younger sisters-in-law went out to pay New Year greetings to their elders.
Of course, the parents have started to celebrate the New Year, and the children who have completed their tasks are already playing crazy in the street.
Almost every child is wearing new clothes.
Every child carries colorful candies in his pocket.
There are also firecrackers and matches.
There were fights and chases everywhere, and all kinds of firecrackers.
He was eating candy in his mouth.
Eat the so-called good food to a full belly, your net worth will reach the peak of the year, and you will definitely not be scolded by adults today, and you can have fun as much as you like.
This is the annual carnival time for children.
Liang Jincang wants to marry a man, so of course he won't associate with these little brats.
Those who came to play with him included Liang Jiangang and Tian Fugui, the toughest ones, as well as several young people of similar age.
This group of them is already quite stable.
To be continued...
