A burst of dampness and heat was felt in the neck socket, and Zhang Qing's small body trembled uncontrollably.

Wang Yingru was a little panicked, Qingqing has always been well-behaved, and she almost never saw her crying, what's wrong today?

She gently patted Zhang Qing's back to comfort her, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

But I couldn't help muttering in my heart: This Chinese New Year, don't you bump into something, right?

I shouldn't have let her come to the yard if I knew so.

hurriedly hugged Zhang Qing back to the house, and asked Zhang Kezhi again: "Dad, what's wrong with her?"

There is a saying here that children cannot be called by their names on Chinese New Year's Eve, otherwise the soul will be taken away by the nightcrawlers.

Wang Yingru began to recall whether anyone had called Zhang Qing's name since just now......

Faced with his daughter-in-law's inquiry, Zhang Kezhi suddenly stammered: "No, no, I didn't ...... Just, just now, okay, good ......"

Ding Guihua's voice came from the kang: "What's wrong? ”

Wang Yingru walked over and said, "I don't know why I started crying, na, I can't get up on my stomach." ”

"Come on, I'll see what's going on......"

"Hurry up, come to the kang and ......"

Hearing the anxious voice of her family, Zhang Qing felt a warm current in her heart, took a deep breath, adjusted her mood, and then raised her head.

Everyone looked at her anxiously with concern.

"What's wrong with Xiao Cake (local affectionate name for children)?" Ding Guihua hugged her over and wiped away the tears on her face with a smile, "Who dares to bully our little cake?"

Hearing the title of "Little Cake", the corners of Zhang Qing's mouth flattened, and she was about to cry again.

Just half a year ago, she called Xiaobao like that!

"What's wrong with this?" Zhang Shoumin teased her with a toy snake, "If you don't obey, let the big snake bite you......"

As he spoke, he brought the snake's head to Zhang Qing.

"What are you doing!" Zhang Hongni knocked it off with a "snap", and said angrily at Zhang Shoumin, "Don't scare her!"

"That's it, didn't you just let this toy scare?" Zhang Shouguo said, and then instructed his younger brother, "Take it quickly! Get some messy things back!"

His niece was obviously very bold, but when was she scared? Now she came to blame him! Zhang Shoumin dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, so he had to put away the toys silently.

"Get these scary things, she's a little girl and not a little boy, can she not be afraid?!" Ding Guihua also blamed her little son.

"Okay, well, it's all my ...... that I didn't think about it," Zhang Shoumin replied with a hippie smile, and grinned bitterly at Zhang Qing.

Seeing that he was not good again, and the second uncle was about to become a sinner, Zhang Qing hurriedly smiled.

It was as if he was amused by Zhang Shoumin's strange appearance.

"Look, isn't that good!" Zhang Shoumin shouted excitedly.

"Okay, let's be quiet, how can there be a drink for the New Year, it's time to have dumplings." ”

"Children come and go as fast as they come. The family breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that Zhang Qing was indeed fine, the tense and anxious atmosphere was replaced by relaxation and pleasure again.

Saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new is the wish and yearning of every Chinese for a better life.

The water boiled, Ding Guihua and Wang Ying went to cook dumplings, and Zhang Shouguo and Zhang Shoumin went to prepare firecrackers and paper to be burned.

The sound of firecrackers began to be heard in the streets.

Zhang Hongni hurriedly covered Zhang Qing's ears, afraid that she would be frightened by the sound of firecrackers.

In the sound of firecrackers to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, Zhang Qing quickly fell asleep in a daze.

The new year is coming, and she is going to live a new life. No matter what happens, life always has to look forward.

In this life, she doesn't want her family to repeat the poverty, strife, and unsatisfactory trajectory of her previous life, she has made a lot of goals, and she wants to do a lot of things.

She can only succeed if she works very, very hard.

Xiaobao, let her hide his cherished place in the deepest part of her heart.

It was the most precious memory that could only belong to her.

After waking up the next day, I could still hear Wang Yingru regretting that she couldn't eat a New Year's dumpling.

They eat two dumplings here on Chinese New Year's Eve, the first meal in the evening, commonly known as "stove", which means to bring the stove prince to the house, indicating that there will be good days in the coming year, and meat should be added to the dumplings.

Of course Zhang Qing ate the dumplings on the stove.

The other meal is the vegetarian dumplings eaten at nearly 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, which will have some dumplings wrapped with coins, brown sugar and red dates, generally take 16, 18 and other auspicious numbers, eat coin dumplings on behalf of the coming year to make a fortune, eat brown sugar and red date dumplings on behalf of the coming year good luck, sweet and sweet.

After eating this dumpling, it is considered the New Year.

Children generally insist on sleeping before eating Chinese New Year dumplings, and adults generally let them sleep first, and then call them up when the dumplings are cooked.

But Zhang Qing cried before, she had just fallen asleep at that time, and no one in the family could bear to wake her up again.

"Quick, Mom set it aside for you. Wang Yingru took out a small half bowl of New Year's dumplings and put them in front of Zhang Qing, "Originally, I saw that you were quite energetic, and I thought I could hold on, but I didn't expect you to fall asleep again after the dumplings." ”

Because of Zhang Qing's intelligence, although she can't say much, she can understand what adults say, so everyone basically talks to her like adults.

After last night, Zhang Qing felt as if she had let go of a heavy burden in her heart, and suddenly felt much more relaxed, and when she heard Wang Yingru's words, she picked up a dumpling and bit it and ate it.

From the age of one, she fed on her own.

"Quack", Zhang Qing didn't expect to eat a coin in the first dumpling, and almost broke her little baby teeth without defense, and hurriedly spit out the coin.

"Ah, Qingqing will eat money for her first dumpling, and she will make a fortune in the new year. Wang Yingru said happily.

made Zhang Shouguo laugh: "She is so young, she can't even earn money, how can she get rich?"

"Let's do it for her!" Wang Yingru glanced at Zhang Shouguo, "Qingqing won't make money, of course we made a fortune for her!"

From ancient times to the present, it is estimated that every Chinese has used the trick of psychological suggestion perfectly! Zhang Qing smiled secretly.

"Okay! We're all rich!"

Zhang Qing calmly continued to eat dumplings amid the lively sound of her parents making a fortune.

After breakfast, everyone changed into new clothes for the New Year and began to greet each other.

First, pay New Year's greetings to the elders in the family, and the children receive New Year's money.

Zhang Qing received a total of 32 yuan.

Among them, her parents gave ten yuan together, her grandmother gave ten yuan, and Zhang Hongni and Zhang Shoumin each gave six yuan.

Zhang Qing put the money in her pocket and patted it, this was her first small treasury. Thinking about it, his eyes smiled like crescents, revealing eight small baby teeth.

made everyone laugh: "This little girl is still a little money fan!"

It's a pity that before it was hot in his pocket, Wang Yingru confiscated the money on the grounds of "don't lose it, children".

Zhang Qing was depressed, and the small treasury that had just arrived flew like this! crying::>_<::

Before Zhang Qingbian could open her mouth, Wang Yingru took out a piece of it and folded it for her and put it in her pocket, and said with a smile: "Hold the waist money, there is no shortage of money to spend in the new year!"

Zhang Qing sighed, I really want to grow up quickly!
