Chapter 17: Twenty million
The closer we get to the end of the year, the more depressed the stock market becomes, and it seems that even the market is waiting for the New Year's holiday.
On the last trading day before the Spring Festival, Shen Hui cleared all the stocks, paid off all kinds of foreign debts, transferred all the 24 million funds belonging to him, kept 4 million pocket flowers, and transferred 20 million to the futures account.
The securities company also made a special call to inquire, which made Shen Hui a little impatient.
On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, my mother began to sweep the house inside and out.
Shen Tao and Shen Lu also had a holiday, and they were turned around by their mothers.
Although the bungalow is a bit small, it is always a home, and the Chinese New Year has to be a little new.
Dad also happily drove the car to the street from time to time to buy, and bought a bunch of chicken, duck and fish. In the past, during the Chinese New Year, the cost was always calculated, but this year is different, the youngest Shen Lu also went to work to earn wages, and the boss was even more wealthy, and he transferred 100,000 yuan of New Year's money to his father and mother last night, so he naturally had a fat year.
Early in the morning of the thirty-first morning, Shen Hui called Shen Tao and pasted the couplet.
The two sons of Aunt Liu's family next door also came back, and a Volkswagen Lavida was parked at the door, and Shen Hui met it twice, because he didn't know it well, he just nodded and said hello, and the two daughters-in-law were very foreign, and I heard that they were all southerners.
The youngest son of the Liu family is one year younger than Shen Hui, and the baby is two years old.
When talking about the son of the Liu family at noon, the old mother was still resentful: "Zhou Ping is sick in the brain, but she has a good life, see what she can find, if she doesn't run, my grandson will be three or four years old now." ”
Shen Liguo's face sank: "What are you talking about during the Chinese New Year?"
Zhang Jinhua had a calm face, and she didn't mention it anymore.
Shen Lu asked, "Dad, please eat, you don't have to go to your aunt's house for the Chinese New Year this year, right?"
Shen Liguo said: "Go, your brother hasn't come back for two years, what if you don't go, your two cousins' houses will also go." ”
Shen Tao hurriedly protested: "I just went to my aunt's house, what are you doing at my cousin's house." ”
Zhang Jinhua said: "People come to your father every year to pay New Year's greetings, and you have to return the gift." ”
Shen Tao didn't want to go, and said: "Dad is her maternal uncle, it's natural for them to come to pay New Year's greetings, I'll just give my aunt a New Year's greeting, what are you doing at their house, I was aggrieved and didn't want to go last time I went to have a meal with Shen Lu." ”
Shen Hui didn't want to go, but when the second child was the first bird, he didn't say anything.
Shen Liguo also has a headache, the conditions of the two married nieces are very good, but they are a little stingy, after Shen Lu came back, Shen Tao and Shen Lu went to the two cousins' house, but Shen Tao, who was picking and picking at a meal, was not full, and when he came back, he said that his mother was angry, but it was not good to say anything, he was silent for a while, and said, "Go and take a look!"
Tao Shen didn't say anything more, muttering while picking up rice.
After eating dumplings in the evening, each family made an appointment to burn paper together.
In the past two years, environmental protection has been strict, the county has not allowed large-scale burning of paper everywhere, each community put a tin bucket, everyone lined up to burn paper, not to mention the grievances, fortunately outside the city is not too strict.
Especially on the night of the 30th, the relevant departments also turned a blind eye.
After all, the ancestors still have to be respected, and it is only one night.
Seven or eight cars drove out of the city, stopped at a three-way junction to the village, and set aside the paper sacrifices in a cultivated field, the adults burned the paper money, and the children ran around or set off firecrackers.
The paper was so big that it took more than half an hour to burn it.
After burning the paper money, Shen Feng called the brothers together and said, "I'll go to say goodbye to Uncle Guo in a while, and Shen Hui will wait at home." ”
Shen Hui nodded, it is a tradition to say goodbye to his parents on the evening of thirty nights, usually the juniors make an appointment together, and the parents leave the New Year one by one, and finally everyone gets together to celebrate the New Year, last year at the second uncle's house, and this year at the second uncle's house.
After going home and waiting for a while, Shen Feng and the others came over soon after sending their families home.
Everyone stood in the living room, while making a gesture, and loudly saying goodbye to Mom and Dad.
Shen Liguo and Zhang Jinhua cleaned up their moods, and were busy watching the seats with smiles on their faces.
After taking a sip of tea, everyone quickly got up to say goodbye and went to the next house to say goodbye.
Shen Hui and Shen Tao also followed, bid farewell to the eldest uncle, second uncle and third uncle, and finally arrived at the second uncle's house.
This year, I want to celebrate the New Year at the second uncle's house, and there are not dozens of people upstairs, so the second uncle picked up the bungalow early, and the heating in the house is hot. This bungalow is much larger than Shen Hui's small house, and it is no problem to fit dozens of people.
went around and arrived at the second uncle's house, and the adults also arrived.
The second uncle took the vice dice and said: "Men come to shake the two treasures, women want to bet on it, and if they don't want to play, they can watch the Spring Festival Gala. ”
The men all sat in a circle around the coffee table, big and small.
Shen Bing and Shen Lu also went to the table, and Shen Lu took a bench and sat next to Shen Hui.
Shen Chao took a cigarette out, it was also 95 Nanjing, and he opened it and threw it on the coffee table for everyone to smoke casually.
Rolling the dice to bet on odds and evens, Shen Hui has played before, and he is no stranger to it.
Now the country is gripping gambling tightly, and no one usually plays, so the family is happy together during the New Year.
Shen Limin sat down first, put the dice in a small plate, shook a small bowl a few times, and put it on the coffee table.
I used to play and just want to win, and I ended up losing every time.
This year, it's the other way around, and you can't lose if you want to, unless you want to, but that's too boring.
Shen Hui didn't bet much, only one hundred at a time, and he had a lot of money in his hand after a while.
Shen Lu was more memorized, and quickly lost the 1,000 yuan that Shen Hui gave her, she didn't want to play anymore, so she just wanted to have fun, but when she saw that her brother had a handful of money in his hand, she stared at it for a while, so she asked Shen Hui to ask for 100 yuan and follow Shen Hui.
As a result, within ten minutes, he had more money in his hand than Shen Hui.
Shen Hui was a little helpless, in fact, he just wanted to have fun, he didn't want to win money at all, and he didn't miss that money, so he didn't remind Shen Tao and Shen Lu, but he didn't expect Shen Lu to follow him to bet, and he bet all the money every time.
In this way, the snowball naturally rolls in overdrive.
One hundred becomes two hundred, two hundred becomes four hundred, four hundred becomes eight hundred......
But fortunately, after reaching 2,000, only a maximum of 2,000 yuan is bet each time.
Soon, someone noticed that Shen Hui was super lucky, and they also began to bet with Shen Hui.
Shen Hui didn't see it well, so he immediately deliberately made a wrong bet and pitted many people.
After Shen Lu had a lot of money, he capped at 2,000 each time, and immediately stopped playing after losing a handful, happily counted the handful of money he won, and then counted out 10,000 yuan and gave it to his mother, leaving more than 2,000 yuan of pocket money for himself.
Shen Tao was miserable by the boss, he found out a little late, and when he followed Shen Hui to bet, he had already lost a lot, and he had just returned to the book with a few bets, and his head was hot and all of them were bet, and they were all pitted.
Shen Liguo's luck is also relatively back, he lost 10,000 yuan, and his head is already sweating.
Shen Limin sat in the village and lost nearly 50,000 yuan, and said: "Let the rich let out some blood, get some pocket money for everyone, and Shen Hui will shake a few treasures." ”
Shen Hui didn't want to sit in the bank, but he couldn't shirk it, so he had to take it, he couldn't help it, he couldn't control what others bet, he could only open a single and lose double, open a double loss order, fortunately, he was not afraid of selling a single and double, and he would not sell himself.
After selling a few handfuls of singles and doubles, no one bought them anymore.
Every time you buy, you will lose, everyone is not stupid, who wants to rush to be pitted.
sat in Huizhuang and lost tens of thousands, Shen Hui gave the village to the second uncle.
After twelve o'clock in the noise, it was time for Grandpa Stove to get down.
Everyone ended the battlefield, counted the achievements, and began to pay the New Year's money.
Shen Liguo's three brothers have no grandchildren, Shen Feng and Shen Yue are all married, Shen Feng has two babies and Shen Yue has one, there are three babies in total, and Shen Liguo has two hundred yuan in previous years, but this year it is rare to be generous, five hundred yuan per person.
Shen Hui also followed one person to send five hundred, and when he turned around, he was nagged by his mother.
"Your father can send it, what else do you post. ”
Zhang Jinhua was very clear: "You haven't got a family, you have a baby in the future, and people won't give you double copies, it must be your uncle and second uncle who send it alone, you are a meat bun and a dog and there is no return, but you can't send it indiscriminately." ”
Shen Hui was really helpless, but he didn't distinguish it from his mother.
Turning around and asking the second child: "Did you lose or win?"
Shen Tao cried and said with a sad face: "I lost three thousand." ”
Shen Hui nodded, and didn't care about him. is about to start a family, his own affairs are his own decisions, not to mention himself, his parents can't care about him for a lifetime, he can eat as much as he can, except for himself, no one else can pay for his life.
After eating a meal of mutton, everyone went back to their respective homes.
Early the next morning, Shen Hui and Shen Tao got up early to pay New Year's greetings to the eldest uncle, second uncle, second uncle and third uncle, and met Shen Feng and Shen Yue and Shen Yuan at the second uncle's house.
This time, there were several tables of mahjong, one table for the elders and two tables for the juniors.
The first year of junior high school passed like this, and the second year of junior high school began to go to relatives.
Shen Hui's grandfather has passed away, and his grandmother is still alive, but he has a bad relationship with his three uncles, and he usually has little contact, so he only walks around during the New Year or when he encounters something.
Grandma was at the second uncle's house this year, but when she arrived at the second uncle's house, she learned that the old lady had returned to the township.
Everyone is a little confused, how can the old lady stay alone in the township during the Chinese New Year?
asked the reason, the second uncle looked impatient, and said a few words to Zhang Jinhua.
Zhang Jinhua endured her anger and called her uncle again.
After a round of phone calls, I figured out what was going on, it turned out that on the 30th, the old lady accidentally wetted the bed again, and the second aunt was angry, so she asked the second uncle to send the old lady to the township, and I don't know how to spend the New Year alone.
Zhang Jinhua almost blew up her lungs.
