Chapter 40: A New Year, a New Atmosphere
These people are going to play mahjong all night, and when they reach four o'clock in the morning the next day, they will go back to their respective homes, and then prepare to go to their respective homes to pay New Year's greetings.
The New Year's greetings on the first day of the Lunar New Year are the most important activities, marking the beginning of the new year, the new year and the new atmosphere, washing away the troubles of the old year and facing the new life.
Shang Yiyun doesn't have the same good energy as these elders, after returning to his bedroom, he fell asleep in bed, and he has to get up early tomorrow to pay New Year's greetings, so he naturally has to rest now.
On the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, there was still the sound of fireworks outside, Shang Yiyun had already fallen asleep, and after waking up, he looked at the time, it was just five o'clock, although he was very reluctant, but he still had to get up.
It won't take long for the New Year's greetings to begin, which is one of the most important things in the new year, to pay New Year's greetings to the elders, to the deceased, is an expression of respect for the elders and respect for the deceased.
He needs to go to every house with his father to pay New Year's greetings, his mother will also go with other people, and the neighbors in the township go to visit the New Year.
The families walked through it, the village was not big, and it didn't take much time, after the New Year's greetings, Shang Yiyun patted the soil on his knees, and prepared to go home and sleep for a while.
The countryside does not have the prosperity of the city, there are no bars, song halls and other entertainment places, but there is also the joy that the city does not have, winter is coming, the water in the river is frozen, although the north does not have the nearly one-meter ice in the northeast, but there is no problem with some people standing on it.
This holiday is just a relaxing time before the school exam for him, and on February 8, the school exam officially begins, and he will go to the school exam site to conduct an exam that will affect his life.
After the first day of the Lunar New Year, Shang Yiyun completely incarnated as an otaku, slept lazily every day, got up and went out to exercise for a period of time, and then continued to return home.
Although he doesn't like gambling, his parents just gamble for entertainment, and he doesn't want to care.
Shang Yiyun has been living a very nourishing life these days, and he doesn't have to think about anything, except for the need to learn advanced mathematics every day, which consumes some brain cells, the rest of the things are very easy.
After the year, the time to go to relatives has also come, relatives separated by two places, only this period of time before the year has the opportunity to get together, this is also the time to contact feelings, the first stop is to go to his uncle's house, and the uncle who went to work in other places came back a year ago.
At dawn the next day, his parents set off, and the village where his uncle's house was located was not far from Xiaoshi Village, so he was going to go again at noon, lest he go early and sit there silently, and this embarrassing situation would occur.
On this trip, there were basically no peers of the same age as him, and the others were either older than him or younger than him, and there was no common language at all, and the reason why he didn't want to go to his relatives was for this reason.
As for lunch, I still have to go to my uncle's house to solve it, the two places are two or three kilometers apart, and it takes more than ten minutes to ride a tram to go back and forth.
After painting a color landscape at home and framing it in a frame, he was ready to go, and as for the framed work, he was going to give it to his uncle and hang it on the wall, which was also a good decoration.
Shang Yiyun had previously obtained the color landscapes and color still lifes, as long as he felt that the paintings were good, he would frame them and hang them on the wall of his home as a decorative item, and there were nearly ten framed works.
Every time an outsider comes to his house, he can't help but look at these works, and after seeing them, he can't help but be amazed.
It didn't take long for him to come to his uncle's house, and when he brought the work to the house, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Yi Yun, is this what you painted? Shang Yiyun's aunt took the painting and praised it, her eyes full of surprise.
"Let me see, let me see. When a few children heard this, they immediately came to join in the fun, all of them were children who were less than ten years old, and they didn't know how to appreciate it at all, and when they saw this work, they all said that it was beautiful, but as for why it was beautiful, they couldn't say it.
"Alright, let's enjoy the painting later, it's time to eat. In the end, it was his uncle who made the final decision, and the table was full of dishes, all of which were booked at the restaurant.
Shang Yiyun is already an adult, so he naturally shares a table with his father, and there are also his eldest uncle, second uncle, and fourth aunt's son at this table, that is, his elder brother, and his mother is the fifth in his grandfather's house.
On this occasion, wine is indispensable, and it is a liquor with a high alcohol concentration, these elders let him drink a glass with him, his father is allergic to alcohol, and he can't drink alcohol at all, so this kind of thing can only be done by him.
Chatting while drinking is the most common thing at the wine table, Shang Yiyun just acts as a listener and will not interject at all, but soon he can't talk anymore, because these elders have pulled the topic to him.
"Yufu, I don't know how Yi Yun's academic performance is now, and whether he is sure to be admitted to university. Uncle Hao Zhengye asked Shang Yiyun's father.
Yi Yun scored 645 points in the last midterm exam and won the first place in the liberal arts class. Speaking of this, Shang Yiyun's father Shang Yufu was full of smiles, obviously very satisfied with his son's performance, the result of the art examination, there is absolutely no problem in being admitted to a key university in the future, not to mention that his son is still an art student.
Hiss, the sound of gasping sounded, for these people, this score is already very high, if you can get this score in the college entrance examination, there is hope for going to a key university.
These elders didn't know Shang Yiyun's plans, otherwise they would only be even more surprised, Huaqing University and Kyoto University are two big mountains in the university, even people with a low level of education will know about these two universities.
"I didn't expect Yi Yun's academic performance to be so good, and he must be a promising person in the future. At this time, the second uncle also spoke, his tone was full of envy, after all, having an excellent child, it can be said that these elders wish.
Someone constantly praises Shang Yiyun, although these elders are his relatives, but they are all realistic, knowing his academic performance, no one looks down on him.
After eating, he stayed at his second uncle's house for a while, and then he and his parents returned home, and as for his younger sister, he had to stay here to play with his uncle's daughter, considering that the distance between the two families was not far, his parents did not take his little sister away.
Along the way, the parents always have a smile on their faces, people have vanity, and they can be praised by others, no matter who they are, they will be very happy, not to mention, their son is so good, and there is light on their faces as parents.
