"This time, we put the New Year's money by ourselves and keep it by ourselves. Hu Yandie only took out half of it and glanced at it, quickly stuffed the money back and put it in his jacket pocket.

Hu Yandie's words were aimed at Jiang Yucai, she was afraid that her mother would say again: "Take your money and I will keep it for you, and I can buy you new clothes and stationery when school starts." ”

Jiang Yucai did this in the past, and when the New Year's money was in the hands of the child, she would return to her after a turn, and that was it.

Hu Mingchen and his sister and sister believed it to be true, and most of the New Year's money was handed over, and at most two cents and five cents were divided into their hands to spend during the Chinese New Year.

However, when the new semester started, I didn't see where the new clothes were, and as for the stationery, I could use the old ones as much as possible, and I had to wait until I was really useless, and I would squeeze out a little money from the two elders to make do.

With many lessons from the past, Hu Yandie learned to be obedient this time, and she wanted to keep it by herself and no longer be fooled and handed it in.

Many people have encountered this kind of thing when they were young, in fact, it is not that adults are really greedy for money, many families do this, the fundamental reason is that the family itself is not rich, if the family is really rich, how many elders will be willing to treat their children so badly?

Jiang Yucai is naturally the same, and she has to do this because of her family's financial difficulties.

"Oh, I'm the same, I'm going to keep it myself, and no one wants to take it out. Hu Yandie's reminder, Hu Yujiao immediately became alert, and quickly put the money away, and was more careful than Hu Yandie, and directly opened the clothes and stuffed them into the small pocket of the innermost underwear.

Of course, Hu Mingchen can't be the same as his sisters and sisters, he is now a person who can decide how to spend hundreds of yuan by himself, how can he look at ten yuan. I put the red envelope on the table casually, not worrying about being taken away at all.

"You two girls, look at you like that, I don't save it this year if you give it to me, whatever you want to spend it yourself, it's just that it's finished, don't ask me for it." Jiang Yucai was stimulated by the two children, so she simply said a little angrily.

If it was before, Jiang Yucai would not gamble at all, but tried every means to get their money. Now it will be like this, the key is that the conditions at home are different from the past, even if it is not a wealthy family, but at least it is no longer poor, and more importantly, there is hope and hope for the future.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that on the first day of the Lunar New Year tomorrow, Hu Mingchen's family will casually collect more than 2,000 yuan, there is no problem at all, as long as there are no accidents, the Duge Township Cinema will definitely be full from morning to night.

Aside from his family's movie theater, even those who sell snacks at the door, they will definitely make a lot of money.

There is no way, Duge Township is a small place, there are only two places to go during the Chinese New Year, either to Qingshui River to listen to people singing mountain songs, or to swarm into the streets. And now most of those who crowd the streets, it is estimated that more than half of them will go to the Duge Township Cinema to join in the fun, which can be regarded as fashionable.

Hu Mingchen's family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in 1998 was eaten until almost dark.

Because there is no electricity, even if it is the night of the 30th night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, there will be no entertainment, such as watching the Spring Festival Gala, at least for the time being, it has not appeared in Huangni Village, and the local custom is that the night of the 30th night of the Chinese New Year's Eve does not visit each other.

If Hu Jianjun hadn't drunk so much, if he hadn't gone to the street early in the morning tomorrow to open his doors for business, Hu Mingchen and his family would have sat by the fire and chatted and kept vigil as in previous years. But this year, after eating, I rested by the fire for a while, ate some melon seeds, peanuts and candy, and went back to my room.

Of course, there is also the scene of Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao happily setting off fireworks at the door. It was the first time in their lives that they had set off fireworks, and the two of them were so excited and happy. It's just that a firework doesn't last long, and it will be over in a minute or two.

Hu Mingchen bought back nine roots, they were reluctant to put the nine roots at once, and the rest of them planned to keep the second, third, and fifteenth years of junior high school, and then put them, it was best to call Hu Xiaomin and a few of them to put them together.

Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao, the two little sisters, the first thing they did when they returned to the room was, of course, to find a place where they thought their money was more private and hidden.

Hu Jianjun, who drank wine, fell asleep, and Jiang Yucai still had to clean up the house.

Hu Mingchen was lying in bed thinking about things, the 5,000 yuan owed to Chen Xuesheng had better be repaid before the fifteenth, and if possible, he would go to his house to pay a New Year's greeting.

There is also the master Song Qiaoshan, his family lives in the county seat, Hu Mingchen thought again, he should also go to the master to pay a New Year's greeting, in addition, the two thousand yuan he donated to Hu Mingchen, Hu Mingchen said that it will be counted as his investment shares, and it is good to bring some profits when the time comes.

In addition, Hu Mingchen also thought of Ma Yi, the head teacher who had been taking care of him, she didn't celebrate the New Year in the township, her family was in the county seat, but Hu Mingchen didn't have her contact information, and he didn't know where her family lived.

and has lived in the eldest brother Hu Mingyi's house for so long, this time the household name does not indicate anything, not that he forgot it, but he doesn't know how to express his gratitude. Give money, his family will definitely not accept it, and send something to show his heart, but it is not enough to express that feeling.

Hu Mingchen thought about a lot of people and a lot of things, thinking about it, he didn't know when he fell asleep, and he was also very tired during this time.

Early the next morning, Hu Mingchen got up as usual, although Song Qiaoshan went back to the county seat, he didn't have to go to the street and the bridge to practice, but he was good at being diligent and frolic, and he still couldn't relax too much.

After leaving the house, he ran around the mountain along the path, and then went to the field on the other side of Shanshuyan to beat the boxing method taught by Song Qiaoshan twice, and his whole body was sweating, and Hu Mingchen went home wearing a red vest.

Even though a lot of trees have been cut down on the mountains around Huangni Village, it is still a countryside after all, and the air in the morning is still very fresh, especially the smell of mud and wild grass, which smells even more pleasant.

When I got home, it was already dawn, Hu Jianjun and Jiang Yucai got up, only Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao, who were a little sleepless at night, had not left the warm bed.

"You go out early in the morning, and you only wear this, be careful of catching a cold. Seeing Hu Mingchen coming back shirtless, Jiang Yucai, who was cooking something, said with concern.

"Mom, it's okay, I'm fine, I won't catch a cold. Hu Mingchen took the basin outside, scooped out a scoop of water from the water tank and poured it into the basin.

Hu Mingchen was sweating all over his body, even if he couldn't take a bath, he should wipe it properly, otherwise there would be a smell of sweat on his body.

"There's hot water on the fire, you take hot water, cold water, kid. Seeing that Hu Mingchen was going to take a cold bath, Jiang Yucai was carrying a hot water kettle and planning to heat the water channel for him.

"Mom, no, it's good to take cold water, it's comfortable, and it's refreshing, you can use hot water, bring it over, don't worry about me catching a cold, no." Hu Mingchen refused.

Since he insisted on exercising every day according to Song Qiaoshan's requirements, Hu Mingchen's body has become better and stronger, and he has to accept the "ice and fire" under the bridge every day, he has not only completely adapted to taking cold water, but also has a bit of enjoyment and preference.

It's okay to run and punch in the river, let alone just wash your face and wipe yourself.

"He's been taking cold water lately, so let him be, heat up the food, and open the door on the street after eating, and many people will go out very early today. Hu Jianjun came out of the back room wearing the jacket that Hu Mingchen bought for him, and said in good spirits.

Hu Mingchen washed his face and wiped his body, Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao were also called up by Hu Jianjun, and the two of them had to follow to the street to help today.

Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao together is not to say that the two of them can do much to help, the key is that everyone is not at home today, and they are going to the street anyway, so it is better to get up and have breakfast together and walk together.

"Second brother, second sister-in-law, Xiao Chen, you are already eating, I thought you had just gotten up. As soon as Hu Mingchen's family set the table and started to eat breakfast, Hu Jianqiang, who was in good spirits, came.

Although Hu Jianqiang didn't wear new clothes today, his shoes were polished, and he was wearing the same suit on the opening day, and his hair was probably washed last night and combed neatly, so he looked particularly energetic.

"Jianqiang, come, eat together, Hu Yujiao, go and give your third uncle that bowl. Seeing Hu Jianqiang, Jiang Yucai hurriedly greeted.

"Second sister-in-law, no need, you eat quickly, I've already eaten, I'll just come up and see if you're ready." ”

"Third uncle, you're really early, let's have some food with us. Hu Mingchen said with a smile.

"I just came after eating, today can't be early, the first day of the new year, when business is at its best, I can't delay. Hu Jianqiang pulled a bench and sat next to him.

"Brother, if you don't eat, would you like to pour you a glass of wine?" asked Hu Jianjun.

Hu Jianqiang hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, what kind of wine do you drink early in the morning, I said it earlier, but you can't drink to delay today's work, don't drink...... Oh......" Hu Jianqiang seemed to think of something, and hurriedly took out two pieces of ten yuan, one for Hu Yandie, and one for Hu Yujiao: "New Year's money, take it, the New Year's money given by the third uncle." ”

suddenly got an extra ten yuan, Hu Yujiao and Hu Yandie were naturally happy and busy thanking them.

"Third uncle, you are so partial, they all give, why did you forget me?" Hu Mingchen protested.

"You...... Forget it, your New Year's money, I can't afford to pay the third uncle......" Hu Jianqiang said embarrassedly.

His salary and bonus were all given by Hu Mingchen, and the bonus Hu Mingchen gave a one-time thousand, so it was not appropriate for him to send money to Hu Mingchen. Follow and only give ten yuan, a bit of a slap in the face Hu Mingchen, but you can't forward the 1,000 he gave back, and Hu Jianqiang can't do that, so he just directly filtered Hu Mingchen, who is richer than him.

"How can there be anything that can't be raised, it's just ten yuan, hehe, if you don't give it, then how can I press the New Year?" Hu Mingchen simply stretched out his hand and asked directly.

Hu Mingchen has said everything about this, what can Hu Jianqiang do, he can only take out ten yuan and hand it to Hu Mingchen.
